Su Yuan's scalp went numb instantly. The Blood Qi coming from behind made him instinctively go all out.

In a flash, Su Yuan twisted his feet at an unimaginable angle.

Perfected Thunderclap Fist erupted. Lightning flashed brilliantly, and in the blink of an eye, it struck the snarling beast.

Boom!

The unknown beast's head was smashed hard by Su Yuan's fist. Its entire body was sent flying backward, and its head separated from its body in midair.

The head and body hit the ground with a clang. Blood gushed wildly from the headless body.

After twitching for a few seconds, it went still.

"That was close."

"Good thing I reacted quickly."

Su Yuan looked at the beast's corpse in the distance, his face full of relief.

The beast had been incredibly fast. If Su Yuan had not kept his mind tense ever since entering the Secret Realm, he might really have fallen for its attack.

After confirming that the beast was completely dead, Su Yuan started walking toward it.

He had never seen a real beast before, and he was filled with curiosity.

As for the feeling of killing a beast, Su Yuan felt no particular stir in his heart. He had long simulated such scenes in his mind and prepared himself to have blood on his hands.

The beast somewhat resembled a wolf, though its fangs and limbs were sharper and much more robust.

His preliminary estimate put this beast's Blood Qi Value at around 110.

It was even slightly faster than Fang Yan.

Suddenly, Su Yuan thought of something. He took the locator from his pocket and placed it on the ground.

Then, he took out his phone, opened his contacts, and found Pei Xuan's name.

The Qianshan Class had established a class group long ago, so it was normal for Su Yuan to have Pei Xuan's contact information.

[Su Yuan: Teacher Pei, for special reasons, I'll be acting alone in this Secret Realm.] [Su Yuan: I've turned off the locator, so there's no need to worry about me. If anything happens to me, Teacher Pei won't bear any responsibility.]

After sending the messages, Su Yuan surveyed his surroundings. Once he had memorized the terrain and location, he quickly left.

Here, Su Yuan could fight to his heart's content.

Provided the teachers were not following him.

Elsewhere, two kilometers away from Su Yuan.

Pei Xuan felt his phone vibrate and took it out while running at high speed.

The moment Pei Xuan saw the sender's information, his eyes widened wider than they ever had before.

The hand holding his phone trembled slightly. Whether from anger or something else, even he did not know.

"This is absolute nonsense!"

"You know you're in the Second Dormancy Period, yet you still dare to act so recklessly!"

Pei Xuan's gaze swept frantically over his surroundings. The aura of a Fourth-Realm High Tier Martial Artist sent the nearby beasts fleeing in panic.

"What the hell? Why is there a Fourth-Realm Martial Artist in No. 39 Secret Realm? How shameless, competing with us First-Realm Martial Artists for resources."

"No way, a Fourth-Realm Martial Artist came here? How poor is he that he won't even spare No. 39 Secret Realm?"

"This is troublesome. With a Fourth-Realm Martial Artist here, are we only going to get scraps?"

Pei Xuan's leaking aura not only frightened away the beasts, but also prompted everyone else in No. 39 Secret Realm to grumble indignantly before fleeing in disarray.

"That's not right."

After venting, Pei Xuan came back to his senses.

"That kid Su Yuan dared to explore No. 39 Secret Realm alone. No matter how ruthless he is toward himself, there has to be a limit. If he weren't strong enough, he couldn't possibly be this insane."

"Could it be..."

A possibility came to Pei Xuan's mind.

"Su Yuan passed the Second Dormancy Period, and then his strength skyrocketed!"

Pei Xuan wildly filled in the gaps. The more he thought about it, the more plausible it seemed.

"That must be it."

"When Su Yuan was resting after coming out of the Light-Pillar Training Room, I sensed an unusual aura from him."

"That must have been the sign of passing the Second Dormancy Period."

"That's right, it has to be. Otherwise, Su Yuan couldn't possibly be this reckless."

As Pei Xuan considered that possibility, he suddenly felt relieved.

[Pei Xuan: Fine, but you must be careful. Remember not to go too deep into No. 39 Secret Realm.] [Pei Xuan: If you encounter danger you can't withstand, turn on the locator immediately. I'll rush over at once.]

After sending the messages, Pei Xuan stared at the other dots on the locator. Once he identified their positions, he set off again.

Only eight seconds had passed from the moment Pei Xuan stopped to the moment he departed again.

While setting off once more, Pei Xuan also informed Wang Zheng and the other two teachers, telling them to ignore the dot that had disappeared from the locator.

Su Yuan felt his phone vibrate but did not pay it any attention. His steps gradually came to a stop.

Two massive feline beasts crouched before him, their wild eyes fixed on Su Yuan with extreme aggression.

"Perfect."

"One is equivalent to 120 Blood Qi, and the other is equivalent to 115 Blood Qi."

"Just right for testing my actual combat ability."

Su Yuan looked eager to fight. The previous beast had ambushed him, leaving him too passive.

Now, he finally had a chance to take the initiative.

"It would be nice if I had a spear."

Su Yuan looked at his empty hands. He could only use Thunderclap Fist as his main means of attack.

"Tomorrow's Light-Pillar Training Room lesson should be spent practicing Thunderbolt Cleave."

"Just practicing the Thunder-Chasing Spear won't be enough."

Su Yuan thought to himself.

"Meow!"

A piercing, shrill cry suddenly rang out. The feline beast on the left moved all four limbs and appeared before Su Yuan almost instantly.

"So fast!"

"Even faster than that wolf-like beast!"

A trace of surprise flashed deep in Su Yuan's eyes, but his face showed no panic.

Because he could still handle this speed.

With a slight turn, Su Yuan dodged the feline beast's attack.

It was not over yet. Seeing its attack miss, the other feline beast immediately followed up and charged at Su Yuan.

This time, Su Yuan did not dodge. Instead, he raised his right hand, and Thunderclap Fist burst forth!

The immense force of Thunderclap Fist drove into the feline beast's abdomen, followed by several crisp sounds of breaking bones.

Bang!

The feline beast was blasted into a massive boulder. Before long, blood soaked the rock.

"Meow!"

The feline beast that had first attacked Su Yuan seemed to have been enraged.

Its eyes instantly turned blood-red, and its speed rose another level as it pounced fiercely at Su Yuan.

Su Yuan remained calm and dealt with it steadily. With Crimson War God's Heart, his ability to see through the movements of all things was terrifying.

Unless its Blood Qi Value was far higher than Su Yuan's, he could predict any attack it made.

The feline beast rapidly grew larger in Su Yuan's vision. Su Yuan merely shifted slightly to the side and once again evaded its attack.

Then Thunderclap Fist erupted again. A streak of lightning flashed as it struck the feline beast's flank.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Thunderclap Fist struck the feline beast without pause. At this moment, Su Yuan was like a cold and merciless executioner, harvesting the beast's life.

After five punches, the light in the feline beast's eyes gradually faded, and it lost all signs of life.

As for the slightly weaker feline beast, Su Yuan slowly walked up to the boulder and threw a punch!

Crack!

The punch was so powerful that it smashed directly into the feline beast's head and shattered the massive boulder behind it as well.

"Done."

Su Yuan's breathing was steady as he coldly swept his gaze over the corpses of the two feline beasts.

"What a pity. My clothes and pants are all dirty."

Looking down at himself, Su Yuan felt like crying without tears.

There was no helping it. Killing beasts meant getting blood on himself.

"A beast with 120 Blood Qi still isn't the limit of my combat strength."

"I need to find some stronger beasts."

Su Yuan murmured softly before continuing deeper into the Secret Realm.
