Set an Ambush for Him

Watching Instructor Bai Yang sob as he cradled the Ghost Wolf Beast, which barely looked like a wolf anymore, Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou scratched their heads awkwardly.

"So this Ghost Wolf Beast was Instructor Bai Yang's Summoned Beast... Uh... We won't have to pay for this, will we?"

Mo Fan was rather afraid he would have to pay compensation. After all, in the world of his previous life, there had been plenty of cases where people had to pay for beating someone's dog. He had no money! Even selling him wouldn't cover it.

"Don't worry. Although you beat Bai Yang's Ghost Wolf Beast into this state, you won't be held responsible."

Just then, a fierce wind roared down from the sky. Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou, and the other students looked up to see a figure descending slowly, a pair of wings spread behind him.

"Holy crap! That's Advanced Magic of the Wind Element, Wind Wings! An Advanced Mage!"

"The Chief Instructor is actually an Advanced Mage!"

The students cried out in surprise. None of them had expected their Chief Instructor to be hiding such strength-he was an Advanced Mage.

"This Ghost Wolf Beast went berserk just now. If you hadn't seriously injured it, you would have been the ones to die, so you won't be held responsible."

After landing, Zhan Kong reassured Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou. Hearing that they wouldn't be held responsible, both let out a sigh of relief.

"As long as we don't have to pay."

"Yeah, that was seriously close. But Brother Fan, I never expected you to have trained your Fire Burst to the second level already. That's amazing!"

Zhang Xiaohou hadn't expected Mo Fan to have already raised his magic to the second level and immediately praised him. Mo Fan merely waved it off.

"Aw, it's only the second level. Piece of cake."

He didn't show it, but inside, he was already riding high. Showing off without seeming to was the most devastating way to do it.

Meanwhile, the other three main groups arrived above the valley. Mu Bai, Zhou Min, and Xu Zhaoting froze briefly at the sight below.

"I didn't expect Mo Fan's team to be here already..."

"Let's head down too."

They were about to descend when their homeroom teacher, Xue Musheng, stopped them.

"Wait. The assessment is already over. There's no need for you to go down."

They were dumbfounded. Then they frowned at the scorched, severely wounded Ghost Wolf Beast.

"Look! There's a demon beast!"

"Where?!"

"There really is a demon beast!"

"Is it a One-Eyed Demon Wolf?"

At Zhou Min's shout, the students all turned toward the unconscious Ghost Wolf Beast and began discussing it.

"Has... has it already been dealt with?"

Xu Zhaoting froze. Was it already over? Meanwhile, Mo Fan stood with both hands in his pockets, looking up at them as he spoke.

"What took you so long? I've already taken care of it."

The students were stunned. Clearly, none of them had expected Mo Fan to have already defeated the demon beast.

Feeling everyone's astonished gazes on him, Mo Fan was practically on cloud nine. Showing off in public and proving everyone wrong felt incredible.

Meanwhile, Su Miu also emerged from the cave with a bracelet in his hand. While no one was paying attention to him, he casually filled a bottle with water from the little pool and put it away.

The assessment ended successfully. Zhan Kong invited Mo Fan to join the military after graduation, but he didn't invite Su Miu, who didn't have a Summoned Beast yet and was too much of an unknown.

The main issue was that no one knew whether his future Summoned Beast would be powerful. Besides, the Summoning System was much harder to cultivate than the Elemental System.

Su Miu also got a piece of Defensive Magic Equipment out of Zhan Kong for free. Once the practical assessment was over, he turned his attention back to the Douluo Continent.

Huo Yuhao was nearing the Star Dou Great Forest, so Su Miu immediately prepared to round up some help and head over.

"Qiu'er, Xiu Xiu, let's go to the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. There's something good waiting for us there."

Su Miu rubbed his hands together and spoke excitedly. Hearing this, the dragon and the fish both got up, ready to head to the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Wait! Human, where are you taking the Auspicious Beast this time?"

Just as they were about to set out, Di Tian appeared to block their way. Seeing this inherently evil human trying to take the Auspicious Beast out of the Star Dou Great Forest again made his temper flare.

"Beast God, sir, how about we make another deal?"

Su Miu wasn't worried in the slightest. After all, he had a bargaining chip. Wasn't that big, fat worm one?

"A deal? Let's hear it."

The mention of a deal reminded Di Tian of that piece of gold of life, piquing his interest.

"Then please follow my lead, Beast God. We'll split the proceeds fifty-fifty afterward. How does that sound?"

Su Miu knew their previous deal would surely interest Di Tian, so he had nothing to fear.

"...Human, I hope whatever you're talking about is enough to catch my attention."

Seeing how confident Su Miu was, Di Tian raised an eyebrow slightly. Could it be another piece of gold of life? Fifty-fifty... Could there be more than one?

He was growing increasingly interested in this human. Although Su Miu clearly came from another world, he seemed to know the Douluo Continent very well.

After persuading Di Tian, the group soon arrived at the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. They spotted the boy grilling fish, along with two humans approaching him.

"Beast God, sir, whatever happens in a little while, please follow my lead. Let's make the most of this."

Su Miu looked at the black-robed figure nearby, worried that Di Tian would attack the moment he saw the big, fat worm. That would ruin his plan.

"Understood."

Di Tian didn't mind. He was merely curious about what was so special about this human grilling fish, and why this person from another world had asked the Myriad Demon King to watch him.

"Su Miu, what exactly is going to show up? Why all the mystery?"

Di Qiu'er was curious about why Su Miu had gone to such lengths, but he kept her in suspense.

"You'll find out soon."

"People who speak in riddles should get out of the Douluo Continent!"

The group was quite relaxed. Only Bai Xiuxiu seemed a little nervous, intimidated by Di Tian's presence.

Time passed bit by bit. Even when Huo Yuhao turned the tables and killed the ten-year Wind Baboon, Di Tian's expression remained unchanged. Only when a wave of spiritual energy spread toward them did his expression shift.

"Beast God, sir, please stay calm!"

Noticing the change in his expression, Su Miu immediately reminded him. Di Tian instantly locked onto the big, fat worm, but held back from attacking because of their agreement.

"So that big, fat worm actually ran all the way here..."

As his words fell, the ground split open, and an Ice Silkworm with ten white-jade-like segments appeared. Bai Xiuxiu was startled. She hadn't imagined a worm could be so enormous.

"Isn't that the big, fat worm? He actually ran all the way here."

Di Qiu'er was surprised too. She hadn't expected to encounter the escaped Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. He had fled during Di Tian's battle with the Evil Eye Tyrant, while the Golden Hawksbill Turtle had also stolen the gold of life.

"No... This big, fat worm has even broken through to the Million-Year level!"

Di Tian also sensed a distinctly different aura. Only after examining him carefully did he realize that the big, fat worm had actually reached the Million-Year level.

Di Tian immediately clenched his fists. Heaven really was unfair, allowing a useless Ice Silkworm like this to break through to the Million-Year level. At that thought, his killing intent grew even stronger.
