Tier 7 Exotic Beast
"Oh no, Captain, you've downgraded!"
"How come this Chen Lie is so amazing? I remember just two days ago his points only broke 800, and he's gained over 400 points in two days?"
"Now the captain's 100,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins are gone, and he won't be able to explain it to the Martial Artist Association when he gets back."
The Special Enrollment Student from Nanjiang Province were all surprised.
Han Keke glanced at the Personal Points Ranking Board again.
First place: Shao Keyu (1701 points)
Second place: Yan Feng (1513 points)
Third place: Zhou Yang (1455 points)
Fourth place: Xu Wanqing (1329 points)
Fifth place: Zheng Zhongming (1291 points)
Sixth place: Wang Tian'en (points 1233)
7th place: Chen Lie (1206 points)
Han Keke glanced at her total score displayed on the radar again: 1187 points.
"That's a real shame, Captain. You're less than 20 points behind Chen Lie," said the support player Special Enrollment Student beside him.
"Shut up!"
Han Keke scolded the support player next to her.
She was filled with hatred, and to avoid slipping up on the last day, she was hunting the Exotic Beast very seriously today.
However, this morning the number of Exotic Beast in the Extreme Danger Zone became sparse again, making it more difficult for her to hunt Exotic Beast. She had thought that with over 1100 points, she would be among the top seven Martial Artist on the leaderboard, but unexpectedly, she still dropped in rank.
One hundred thousand Star-Origin Galactic Coins —that's a universal currency that can be used to purchase resources Outer Stars. How Han Keke be happy about just missing out on it?
"We haven't slacked off these past two days, and we've only managed to get a little over four hundred points. I don't believe that this nobody Chen Lie can be more impressive than the seventh-ranked province on our Blue Star."
Is this Chen Lie who lacks martial ethics, mobilizing all the strongest Special Enrollment Student students in the entire province to help him hunt down the Exotic Beast?
"Otherwise, his score was still below yours yesterday, and he could have hunted three hundred Exotic Beast in just one day today?"
"Yes, I think so too. Among the Martial Leader of the top ten provinces on Blue Star, which one could hunt down so many Exotic Beast in a single day?"
Unless they mobilize more than three highly capable Special Enrollment Student assistants to catch you off guard on the last day of the rankings!
"That's what the Special Enrollment Student from Nanjiang Province said."
Han Keke gritted her teeth and asked, "Does anyone know this Chen Lie?"
He dares to pull such a dirty trick on the last day? I think he's asking for trouble!
"Never heard of it!"
The Special Enrollment Student from Nanjiang Province said later.
"Zhou Yang, do you know who this Chen Lie is?" Han Keke asked Zhou Yang from East Su Province.
Zhou Yang shook his head and said, "I've never heard of this person before; they're probably not from the Second Military Training Zone."
"Hmph, I'll see if Chen Lie can still hide his true colors and not show up at tomorrow's ceremony for awarding Individual General Star!"
Han Keke snorted coldly. One hundred thousand Star Dollar Galactic Coin would be a huge sum of money for an ordinary Starry Sky University student.
Even if the Blue Star government accumulated its wealth over hundreds of years, it might not amount to tens of millions of Star-Origin Galactic Coins.
The currency of Blue Star is worthless compared to the universal currency of the Central Galactic Empire. It was only through the sale of Blue Star's resources to Outer Stars that the currency was gradually accumulated.
Missing out on 100,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins would be a heartbreaking thing even for a genius like her on the Blue Star Blood-Qi Martial Artist Ranking.
Meanwhile, Chen Lie returned to the Shelter and, as evening approached, suddenly heard a broadcast.
Urgent notice! Urgent notice!
Five minutes ago, a Tier 7 Exotic Beast broke into the Second Military Training Zone. Special Enrollment Student within the Military Training Zone are requested to disperse and return to the Shelter immediately. Grandmaster is on his way!
"The Exotic Beast is about 18 meters tall and 33 meters long, resembling both an ox and a deer, and is rushing towards the Shelter at a speed of 117 meters per second."
Chen Lie was startled when he heard the broadcast.
If Tier 7 Exotic Beast were to intrude into the Military Training Ground, it would undoubtedly cause widespread destruction and result in numerous casualties among the Special Enrollment Student.
Even Grandmaster Martial Artist has cultivated Innate Gang Qi might not be able to defeat Tier 7 Exotic Beast.
Chen Lie immediately turned around and went back to the Military Training Ground. The Special Enrollment Student from East River Province were still Military Training Ground. Most importantly, it seemed that his cousin Feng Shuangshuang had also been on the Military Training Ground with the group for the past few days, not to mention so many familiar friends.

Chen Lie moved quickly; a few kilometers after leaving the Shelter, he encountered many Special Enrollment Student from Chuanzhong Province.
Among the Special Enrollment Student from East River Province, Luo Zhixun spotted Chen Lie and quickly said, "Chen Lie, the broadcast announces that Tier 7 Exotic Beast has entered the Military Training Zone. Hurry back to the Shelter!"
"Just the few of you? Where are the others?"
"I don't know. I went to help the people of West River Province today; I wasn't hunting Exotic Beast with them."
"Then you guys go back to the Shelter first, I'll go check on things."
Upon hearing this, Luo Zhixun immediately said, "Don't go. Tier 7 Exotic Beast is too dangerous. Even if the other team members encounter some danger, your going will not help."
Tier 7 Exotic Beast, with such a massive size, could probably kill or injure dozens of Martial Artist at the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm with a single move.
Chen Lie said, "Don't worry, I'll be in no danger. You go back first!"
After speaking, Chen Lie walked quickly forward without waiting for Luo Zhixun's reply.
When they arrived at a point ten kilometers from the Shelter, Chen Lie finally spotted Feng Shuangshuang.
At this moment, Feng Shuangshuang was with Lu Qingchan, running back with a group of Special Enrollment Student from East River Province.
When Lu Qingchan saw Chen Lie, she quickly said, "Chen Lie, the Exotic Beast are coming! Everyone is running back, why are you going the other way?"
Feng Shuangshuang also said, "Everyone's gone, let's run quickly too!"
At that moment, a beastly roar that echoed for dozens of miles came from the sky. Chen Lie saw a huge red dot rapidly approaching on the Exotic Beast Radar, and a "beep beep" alarm sounded. He said, "The Exotic Beast is already within two kilometers. It's too late. Follow me!"
"Huh?" Feng Shuangshuang looked puzzled.
Seeing Feng Shuangshuang in a daze, Chen Lie said no more, and pulled Feng Shuangshuang and Lu Qingchan to a small hill in the distance.
At this moment, a colossal creature slowly appeared from afar. Upon closer inspection, Chen Lie realized it was indeed a Exotic Beast resembling both an ox and a deer. The Exotic Beast sprinted swiftly, like a moving mountain.
A deafening roar echoed, throwing the Special Enrollment Student fleeing towards the Shelter below into a panic.
"Is that Tier 7 Exotic Beast? It's as big as a building. Can Grandmaster Martial Artist handle such a huge Exotic Beast?" Feng Shuangshuang was shocked.
"My grandfather said that under normal circumstances, Grandmaster -Grandmaster Martial Artist can hunt down a Tier 7 Exotic Beast on their own, but it takes a lot of effort," Lu Qingchan said.
The Exotic Beast ran incredibly fast, reaching within ten kilometers of the Shelter in just half a minute.
The already panicked and chaotic Special Enrollment Student students became even more disoriented and ran around in panic upon seeing the arrival of the Exotic Beast.
The Exotic Beast's massive forehooves slammed down, instantly killing several Special Enrollment Student, which terrified the surrounding Special Enrollment Student even more.
The Exotic Beast roared and began to attack people indiscriminately. Its huge forehooves slammed down on the ground, making a loud "boom" as if a minor earthquake had occurred.
Soon, the Special Enrollment Student in the vicinity were killed or injured one after another by the Exotic Beast.
Faced with Tier 7 Exotic Beast, these Special Enrollment Student at the Blood-Qi Stage had absolutely no power to resist.
The Special Enrollment Student from East River Province who were visiting him saw Chen Lie on the distant hillside, and one of them immediately said, "That's Captain Chen! He's safe there, let's go up quickly!"
A group of students admitted through Special Enrollment Student from East River Province rushed to the hillside.
"Captain Chen!"
Liu Wan, one of the few Martial Arts Student in East River Province with Blood Qi Value exceeding 2,000 calories, arrived at the hillside, panting, and greeted Chen Lie.
The other students admitted through Special Enrollment Student from East River Province, who were behind Liu Wan, also greeted Chen Lie.
Chen Lie nodded to them and said "Mm".
Wei Ranran was the last among the group of Special Enrollment Student from East River Province to walk up the hillside.
"That was close! We didn't expect to encounter such an unexpected event. If Tier 7 Exotic Beast is this powerful, then wouldn't Grandmaster-level Exotic Beast be even more terrifying?"
Wei Ranran straightened her disheveled clothes, a wave of lingering fear washing over her as she said, "Chen Lie, these Exotic Beast are so ferocious, are we going to be wiped out this time?"
Chen Lie shook his head. "No, the Commander Grandmaster of the Military Training Ground is on his way. Once Grandmaster arrives, there will be no danger."
Wei Ranran forced a smile that looked like a cry, "I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out until the Grandmaster arrives."
Soon, the Tier 7 Exotic Beast had swept through all the Special Enrollment Student within a radius of several miles, and twenty or thirty people had already gathered on the hill where Chen Lie was.
"Roar!"
The Exotic Beast roared to the sky, its enormous body approaching the hillside.
"We're doomed! The Exotic Beast has noticed us!"
Many people were terrified during the Special Enrollment Student in East River Province.
The Exotic Beast arrived at the foot of the hill, looked down at the group, opened its mouth and growled, revealing two huge fangs.
As the Tier 7 Exotic Beast slowly approached, Chen Lie instantly sensed a murderous aura belonging to a high-tier Exotic Beast.
He immediately displayed the imposing power of Dragon Tendon Flood Dragon Bone.
Dragon Tendon Flood Dragon Bone shouldn't be very effective against high-level Exotic Beast, but a wisp of the aura of a Starry Sky Behemoth should at least make this Exotic Beast somewhat wary, right?
As soon as the aura of Dragon Tendon Flood Dragon Bone was released, the group of Special Enrollment Student from East River Province behind Chen Lie were the first to feel a chill run down their spines.
The Exotic Beast let out a low growl, seemingly sensing an inexplicable suppression of its life level. Its enormous eyes stared at Chen Lie, who was emanating a dangerous aura, and it took two steps back.
Two or three minutes passed, and the Exotic Beast was still staring at Chen Lie, seemingly unable to understand why such a weak ant could emit such a terrifying aura, even though the aura was very weak to it.
"Huh? Why is this Exotic Beast seemingly lost in thought?"
Wei Ranran, who was behind her, asked in confusion.
The Special Enrollment Student in East River Province were also very puzzled.
If the Exotic Beast were to become as ferocious as before, at least half of their twenty or thirty people would be killed.
At that moment, a middle-aged man rushed over.
When they were several hundred meters away from the Exotic Beast, the middle-aged man struck out with his palm. With a "boom," his powerful Innate Gang Qi sliced through the Exotic Beast's fur, inflicting a minor Exotic Beast.
"Roar!" The Exotic Beast felt the pain and let out a furious roar, instantly entering a berserk state, howling ferociously as it attacked the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man remained fearless in the face of the ferocious Exotic Beast. He switched the power of his palms, and with every move he made, the Innate Gang Qi crisscrossed, instantly leaving multiple wounds on the Exotic Beast.
"To be able to unleash Innate Gang Qi is the Grandmaster Martial Artist!"
"Isn't this Lei Meng, the commander of the 32nd Army of the Northwest Frontline, who gave us a speech when we first arrived at the Military Training Zone?"
Chen Lie turned his head and said, "This is none of our business. Battles between Grandmaster Martial Artist have large fluctuations in energy levels and could potentially injure people. Let's all go back to the Shelter."
"Yes!"
Students admitted through the Special Enrollment Student in East River Province responded enthusiastically.
After descending the hill, Feng Shuangshuang asked Chen Liedao, "Cousin Chen Lie, do you think that military commander can handle that Exotic Beast?"
"Yes!" Chen Lie nodded.
--
"How did you know?" Feng Shuangshuang asked, puzzled.
"Just a guess, let's go!"
This Tier 7 Exotic Beast has only average defense, speed, and strength, making it Exotic Beast of the weaker Tier 7 Exotic Beast.
Lei Meng, the commander of the 32nd Army, was a peak eighth-tier Grandmaster had fought countless battles. Dealing with a relatively weak Tier 7 Exotic Beast would not be a piece of cake for him, but it wouldn't take much effort either.
After leaving, Chen Lie glanced back at the battlefield and saw that it was covered with Innate Gang Qi, and one of the two horns on the Exotic Beast's head had been cut off.
After the group returned to the Shelter, the loudspeaker blared again.
"Breaking news: The Grandmaster Commander of the 32nd Army acted swiftly and successfully killed the Exotic Beast."
The number of people injured or killed by the Exotic Beast is still being tallied.
The announcement was broadcast three times before Feng Shuangshuang finally said, "Such a huge Exotic Beast, killed so quickly?"
"Grandmaster Martial Artist are very strong!" Lu Qingchan said from the side.
At this moment, Luo Zhixun and Tang Jiu'er, along with a group of Special Enrollment Student from East River Province, arrived beside Chen Lie.
"Captain, are you alright?"
Chen Lie shook his head and said, "No."
"The broadcast says the Exotic Beast has been killed. Should we go to the Military Training Zone to take a look?" Tang Jiu'er said.
"It's already late, so there's no need to watch anymore. I'm just letting everyone know that our military training is finished. Go back to the Dormitory Building, find your Blue Star University Special Enrollment Letter, and go to the Military Training Office to get it stamped first thing tomorrow morning. After that, you should be able to go back."
"Go back?"
Luo Zhixun found it strange and asked, "But isn't there a rule that even if you finish military training, you have to stay in the Military Training Zone for ten days? Today is only the sixth day, there are still four days left."
"I've asked around. Staying for ten days isn't a hard and fast rule. We've already completed our mission, so we don't need to stay for ten days," Chen Lie said.
"Really?"
At that moment, a clear voice came from behind Chen Lie. He turned around and saw Shen Miaowei and Ji Lingxuan walking over.
"Mr. Chen Lie, once the military training is completed, is it really possible to leave without waiting for ten days?"
Shen Miaowei walked up to Chen Lie and asked.
Yes, but you have to come with me.
Ji Lingxuan said, "If we hunt 28 more Exotic Beast, we can complete our military training mission in Cloud River Province."
If that's the case, Shen Miaowei and I can take advantage of the fact that it's not completely dark yet and go hunt some more.
Let's go hunting some more early tomorrow. Before we set off, we should be able to finish our military training. Can we go get our permits stamped together and then head back to Chuanzhong?
