The Great General! Instantly Rips Apart the Netherclaw Wolf

# Chapter 50: Great General! The Netherclaw Wolf Torn Apart in an Instant

"Teacher Gu Han, who is this student?"

Lu Yiming, the lead teacher from Imperial Capital Academy, squinted as he asked.

Just as Teacher Gu Han was about to explain, Li Xingze stepped forward and said, "Just a substitute."

This answer caught Gu Han off guard. He hadn't expected Li Xingze to introduce himself that way.

But thinking it over, if Li Xingze crushed Imperial Capital Academy while being a substitute, wouldn't that be even more satisfying?

So Gu Han nodded, following his heart.

"So it's just a substitute. Teacher Gu, even if Pearl Institute has no hope, there's no need to push a substitute forward."

Lu Yiming smiled kindly, though the sarcasm in his words clashed sharply with his expression.

Gu Han naturally caught the meaning, but he held back. Once this guy saw Li Xingze's strength, he wouldn't be laughing anymore.

After Li Xingze returned to the team, Teacher Gu Han spoke, "Since Li Xingze is here, he'll naturally take the next match. As for the remaining three..."

Teacher Gu Han looked at Li Xingze, apparently letting him decide.

Li Xingze didn't hold back. Scanning the eager crowd, he said directly, "Mu Nujiao, Song Xia, and Bai Tingting."

"Awesome!" Zhao Manyan gave a thumbs up. Picking three girls—Zhao really knew how to play.

Shen Mingxiao, who had expected to be chosen, showed clear displeasure. He'd thought Li Xingze would pick him for his strength.

But this guy was so arrogant he chose three girls instead.

Hmph, he'd be the one looking foolish!

Teacher Gu Han was also stunned. He hadn't expected this choice either, but given Li Xingze's strength, he didn't say much.

Over at Imperial Capital Academy, Lu Yiming smiled and picked four:

"Lu Zhenghe, Ming Cong, Xiao Jinhe, Xiao Feng—you four go up. Pearl Institute is about to give up. You four are more than enough."

Lu Zhenghe sneered. A mere substitute—he'd be lucky to stand steady against his Contract Beast.

"Teacher, let me go."

Just then, a voice like ice crystals and silver bells rang out from under the parasol.

Everyone's gaze gathered on the girl beneath it.

As she stood up, a strange, cold chill swirled around her and slowly spread outward!

Faint icy mist outlined her graceful figure. Snow-white feathered boots wrapped her delicate calves, and her long, straight legs were half-hidden by a long leather coat.

The snow-white coat seemed tailor-made, clinging to her body and accentuating her stunning curves.

Her figure was already outstanding, but what truly captivated was her exquisite face—features so perfect they seemed to have stepped out of a painting.

Her silver-white hair blazed under the scorching sun, complementing her snow-like, icy skin.

Like a snow fairy stepping out of a painting!

Li Xingze rubbed his nose. If he went too hard, would that count as domestic violence?

"You three don't need to act. Leave it to me alone," Li Xingze said to the three girls.

Mu Nujiao and Bai Tingting had no objections, but the fiery Song Xia questioned, "Even if you're strong, you think you can take on Imperial Capital Academy by yourself?"

"Uh, I'm just worried about accidentally hitting you." Li Xingze shrugged. "If you get tangled up with them, it'll just limit my moves."

Song Xia was speechless. Li Xingze's power in the Beast Arena Competition was still fresh in her mind. She couldn't find a rebuttal.

On the competition stage.

"Ice Spread!"

Mu Ningxue lightly pressed her lips together, completing her ice star track in an instant.

Frost danced. Crystalline powder filled the entire battlefield, and the cold air drove away all warmth.

Unlike other ice mages' Ice Spread, Mu Ningxue's basic ice spell had a larger range, stronger freezing effect, and even showed the beginnings of a domain.

Even the lead teachers—Gu Han, Qiu Yuhua, and Li Jing—looked shocked.

"Aren't you going to act?" Mu Nujiao reminded Li Xingze, seeing he hadn't moved.

Li Xingze breathed into his hands. Without ice or fire elements, the temperature affected him quite a bit.

Good thing the Silver Scale Armor had some cold resistance, or this ice domain would be a real problem.

"Scared stiff, huh? Perfect. Let my Contract Beast deal with you."

Seeing Li Xingze's group motionless, Lu Zhenghe thought Pearl Institute had given up. This only fueled his desire to show off in front of Mu Ningxue.

If he took out all four of Pearl Institute alone, maybe he'd earn Mu Ningxue's respect.

"Contract Summon—Netherclaw Wolf!"

With no one interrupting, Lu Zhenghe drew his star chart easily. A fierce, imposing wolf-type creature slowly rose from the star chart's void.

"General-Level!"

Song Xia, who had originally placed her hopes on Li Xingze, could no longer hold back. She was about to unleash Intermediate Magic when Mu Ningxue's domain interrupted her.

Mu Nujiao and Bai Tingting, however, remained perfectly calm. They had absolute faith in Li Xingze's strength.

"What's wrong? Scared stiff by my Netherclaw Wolf?"

Seeing the four of them react like this, Lu Zhenghe grew even more smug. In front of his General-Level Contract Beast, it didn't matter if you were an Intermediate-Level Mage—you'd still end up on your knees.

"A little wolf, and you dare strut in front of me?"

Li Xingze formed a Star Trail with a single thought and directly summoned the Goldflame Dragon Lion, which had been at the Great General level for some time now.

When Lu Zhenghe saw Li Xingze use Dimensional Summon, he was about to mock him, but the next second, he was utterly dumbstruck.

The Goldflame Dragon Lion stood majestically on the ice, its imposing and domineering posture radiating an arrogant gaze that seemed to crush everything. Its body, a full meter taller than the Netherclaw Wolf, delivered an overwhelming visual impact.

"A Great General! And it seems to have a fairly high dragon Bloodline too." Lu Yiming, the leading teacher from Imperial Capital Academy, was also stunned.

The Netherclaw Wolf, which had been ready to dominate the battlefield, immediately scurried away like a frightened puppy the moment it saw the Goldflame Dragon Lion appear.

"Tear it apart, Xiao Jin!"

"ROAR!!"

The Goldflame Dragon Lion grew even more excited seeing the Netherclaw Wolf flee, pouncing on it like it was a toy.

In just a few moves, it had reduced the Netherclaw Wolf to a bloody mess, with more and more blood staining the ice. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before the wolf breathed its last.

"Netherclaw Wolf, come back!"

Seeing the Netherclaw Wolf's miserable state, Lu Zhenghe panicked. This Contract Beast had cost him a fortune and countless efforts to raise.

If the Netherclaw Wolf was killed, he'd be no better than a cripple—he probably wouldn't even be able to stay at Imperial Capital Academy.
