"Damn it, it took one of my Fiery Fists and is still full of beans? That's fucking insane!" Mo Fan cursed again, his eyes locked onto the Scale-Skin Mother Demon as it let out a wild cackle.
The Scale-Skin Mother Demon appeared incredibly smug; it even had the leisure to admire the students being hunted by its offspring, clearly relishing the cruelty and bloodshed of this group hunt.
"Ka-ah--"
Just then, the girls who had been fleeing in a panic suddenly collapsed to the ground.
Their fingernails began to elongate, tearing through their own delicate skin.
Beneath that skin lay the disgusting cyan-yellow scales, and those pairs of greedy, glinting eyes stared fixedly at Mo Fan, whose left cheek was covered in blood.
Soon, several more Cyan-Yellow Demonesses that had been chasing prey turned their focus toward Mo Fan.
Standing not far away, the Scale-Skin Mother Demon knew how formidable Mo Fan was, so it directly ordered the surrounding Cyan-Yellow Demonesses to surround him.
"Damn it!"
Seeing the eight Cyan-Yellow Demonesses encircling him, Mo Fan didn't dare to attempt drawing a star map.
A single Fiery Fist wouldn't be enough to blast these eight Cyan-Yellow Demonesses to death; even if he blew away the ones in front, the ones behind would pounce the moment he was in his magical cooldown.
"Two fists are no match for four hands. You think you can kill me with just that?" The Scale-Skin Mother Demon made a bizarre sound, its tone dripping with mockery at Mo Fan's overestimation of his own abilities.
Mo Fan's heart sank. It seemed Lingling's previous analysis was correct; this Scale-Skin Mother Demon had parasitized that woman and had already gained a certain level of intelligence and linguistic ability.
"Mo Fan, they're planning to storm in. You have to give up on the parasitized students now, or there will be even more casualties!" Lingling's voice came through the earpiece.
"This beast has intelligence. The moment you guys enter, those parasitized girls are truly dead!" Mo Fan said in a low, stern voice.
"That's still better than the entire gymnasium becoming its nest. You can't kill a Warrior-level creature on your own!" A strange, roaring voice cut into the channel.
Mo Fan didn't know who the speaker was, but it was clearly someone in a position of authority.
"You fucking bastard, what do you take human life for?"
At this moment, Lan Yu's voice broke into the communication channel.
"You..." The man was choked up.
One could imagine with their toes just how red in the face and veins-popping that man must be right now.
Shame? Anger?
Perhaps both.
"Momo, get them!"
Awoo--
A tiger's roar exploded within the gymnasium, and those arrogant Cyan-Yellow Demonesses froze in place as if struck by a binding spell.
It wasn't just them; the fleeing students were affected the same way.
Even Mo Fan couldn't help but shudder upon hearing it, goosebumps rising all over his body.
"Holy crap, where did that tiger come from?!" Mo Fan couldn't help but shout.
However, a black shadow, fast as lightning, suddenly burst into Mo Fan's field of vision.
Mo Fan could barely catch a glimpse of the shadow, but he couldn't make out its true form at all.
This shadow was none other than the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
Its target was the very same Scale-Skin Mother Demon that had been feeling so invincible.
Bang--
With a deafening crash, before anyone could see what had happened, the Scale-Skin Mother Demon was embedded deep into the nearby wall, stuck so firmly it couldn't be pried out.
By the light, one could see long, deep claw marks across its face and chest, with fresh blood flowing from the wounds.
Mo Fan gasped. What exactly was that black shadow? Could it be that the soul-shaking tiger roar from earlier had come from it?
Suddenly, Mo Fan caught a glimpse of Lan Yu and Zhao Manyan running over.
The black shadow from before was currently sitting on Lan Yu's shoulder.
A cat? And a Warrior-level one at that?
Mo Fan looked stunned.
No way, you've got to be kidding me!
"Brother, you have a Summoning element too?"
As Lan Yu and the others ran over, Mo Fan couldn't help but ask.
"Mo Fan, oh Mo Fan, I didn't expect you to have this card up your sleeve, tsk tsk..." Zhao Manyan looked at Mo Fan as if he were a rare treasure.
Mo Fan shrugged, "Zhao Manyan, can you keep this under wraps?"
"Sure."
Zhao Manyan wasn't a blabbermouth by nature; since Mo Fan didn't want to expose himself, he would help him keep the secret.
"Enough talk for now. Zhao Manyan, this Scale-Skin Mother Demon is yours. Remember to 'take good care' of it," Lan Yu said.
"Don't worry, I have a knack for dealing with demons, especially female ones." Zhao Manyan chuckled wickedly as he walked toward the Scale-Skin Mother Demon embedded in the wall.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had imbued its previous attack with an evil attribute, and this power was now continuously eroding the Scale-Skin Mother Demon.
The Scale-Skin Mother Demon was now like a fish on a chopping block, ready to be slaughtered.
"Meow-roar~"
Momo let out a cry, telling Lan Yu that it really wanted to grow to its full size and swallow this Scale-Skin Mother Demon in one gulp, along with the thing around the neck of the human before them.
Lan Yu shook his head, signaling to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger through his thoughts that he would take it to devour even more powerful demons in the future.
There was Earth Holy Spring inside the Little Loach Pendant, but since that stuff was essentially bathwater for the Azure Dragon, it shouldn't be a problem to let the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger have a drink, right?
Perhaps he could get some from Mo Fan during the main campus assessment; after all, the Earth Holy Spring from all of Bo City was in the Little Loach, so getting a hundred pounds or so from him would just be offsetting this favor.
"Speaking of which, you have a Summoning Element too, so why go to the Light Element academy?"
Mo Fan glanced at the black cat on Lan Yu's shoulder, feeling a strange sense that this cat was eyeing him.
"I didn't have a summoned beast back then. What would I have done in the Summoning department, act as a mascot?" Lan Yu replied.
Mo Fan let out an "oh," then said with obvious envy: "A Warrior-level summoned beast, and such a special one at that—you're really lucky."
"Basic operation, don't be surprised." Lan Yu waved his hand.
Mo Fan: ...
I give you an inch and you take a mile, you really are full of yourself, aren't you?
As a golden light bloomed, the Scale-Skin Mother Demon let out a shrill, miserable scream before falling silent forever.
The disgusting scales split open, revealing a pale, naked woman inside.
With the Scale-Skin Mother Demon dead, the life force of all the Cyan-Yellow Demoness in the gymnasium was severed, and they collapsed to the ground one after another, wailing in agony.
The students were still fleeing; they didn't know what had happened, only that they needed to escape this dangerous and terrifying place as quickly as possible.
The entire rehearsal hall might still have been chaotic, but the students were gradually calming down.
They stared from afar at the Cyan-Yellow Demoness lying on the ground, their faces filled with bewilderment after having just been shrouded in the shadows of fear and death.
They did not know that the culprit behind it all, the Scale-Skin Mother Demon, had already been killed.
They only watched from a distance as the Cyan-Yellow Demoness shed their scales, revealing people covered in slime trying to crawl out from within.
However, no one dared to step forward; they didn't know if these creatures were human or demon.
When everything finally settled, Mo Fan collapsed limply onto the ground.
It was finally over.
