“Tang Shao, don’t be impulsive!”
Wang Yun, standing beside him, immediately grabbed him and said,
“He’s dominated Class Two for over half a year! In the Duoling Arena in January, that S-rank contracted spirit was almost beaten to death.”
Hong Ming also repeatedly tried to dissuade him from the side. Chen Shu had given them too much pressure last semester.
Of course, the two of them weren’t primarily concerned about Tang Lie,
but rather worried about themselves being targeted. They couldn’t afford to offend the "Nanjiang Ruffian."
“This…”
Tang Lie instantly sobered up. Xia Yan’s contracted spirit had been an S-rank, level nine, back then, and it was similarly dominated!
Although his Windrunner Beast had broken through to level nine, it was definitely no match for an S-rank contracted spirit.
Recalling past events, he became hesitant.
It felt like he had done something wrong…
“Hey! Are we fighting or not? Stop dawdling!”
Chen Shu, looking impatient, felt his Slime hadn’t been in a battle for too long and wanted to see its improvements during the winter break.
After blowing up the异空间 (otherworldly space) in early February, he had gained a 5% boost to all attributes. Combined with the potions given by Fang Si, it was another 10%.
His already powerful Slime could now absolutely crush opponents of the same level.
“We can fight!”
Tang Lie hesitated for a long time before finally gritting his teeth and deciding to fight.
He had already made his declaration, so he at least needed to make a splash.
Otherwise, he would have even less standing in the special training class.
“But let’s agree beforehand! We’re classmates, so we can only spar lightly!”
Tang Lie’s words were equivalent to admitting defeat.
“You were just making threats a second ago, and now you’re backing down?
You’re not just short, you’re also ineffective!”
“Teacher Shen, please be the referee!”
Tang Lie no longer cared about his pride, looking at Shen Wushuang with a pleading gaze.
“With Teacher Shen present, Chen Shu probably won’t kill my contracted spirit.”
Chen Shu smirked, “You’re quite clever, aren’t you?”
Even though Tang Lie lost face, he now had a safety net and wouldn’t face significant consequences. It was essentially a risk-free attempt.
If he could win, he could immediately rise in class and replace Chen Shu’s position.
Even if he lost, there wouldn’t be too many repercussions.
“Then it’s a light spar!”
Shen Wushuang nodded, also wanting to see the combat power of Chen Shu’s Slime.
At least it would prove his judgment wasn’t poor.
“Come on!”
Chen Shu stood at the front of the class and summoned his golden Slime.
*Bang!*
The Slime directly used Giantization, its body instantly increasing eightfold!
*Goo!*
The golden Slime, now thirty meters tall, appeared. Although its large eyes looked incredibly adorable, it exuded an overwhelming pressure.
It was anything but adorable when it was crushing someone!
“I’m flabbergasted!”
Tang Lie’s eyes widened, his mind shaken. He already had thoughts of ending it all.
“Damn it, last semester it was only twenty meters,
and now it’s grown to thirty meters?!”
“Is this thing inflatable? How can it expand so quickly?”
Shen Wushuang also secretly swallowed a gulp.
“You’re just a level nine contracted spirit, what kind of science is this?”
As soon as the Slime appeared, everyone fell into a long silence.
“Can we really contend with something this big?”
At the same time, everyone’s gaze shifted to Tang Lie, their eyes filled with sympathy…
“Courting death on the first day of school, this is truly a brave warrior!”
Especially Du Long, who felt immense gratitude and admiration.
He had also become a level nine Beast Tamer. If Tang Lie hadn’t stepped forward, he would have directly challenged Chen Shu.
“Tang Shao, where is your Windrunner Beast?”
Chen Shu smiled and said, “Giantization has reached level four, allowing me to increase my body size eightfold. I’ve never actually used it in combat.”
“Teacher Shen…”
Tang Lie looked at Shen Wushuang, his eyes filled with pleading.
“I’m watching. Begin!”
Shen Wushuang said comfortingly, “Don’t worry, our school’s infirmary is top-notch!”
“Heh heh…”
Tang Lie gave a dry chuckle. “I’m worried my contracted spirit won’t last until then!”
He took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and summoned his contracted spirit.
The Windrunner Beast was not large. Compared to the Slime, it was like a little brother.
*Screech!*
It let out a clear cry, looking at Tang Lie with doubt in its eyes about its life.
“Am I supposed to bump into this mountain?”
“If you want me dead, just say so. No need to be so subtle.”
Shen Wushuang formally announced, “Begin!”
As soon as the words fell, the Slime opened its massive mouth and let out a roar:
*Goo!*
Although the sound was adorable, the Windrunner Beast fell into a daze.
Chen Shu had successfully repelled the beast tide at the beginning of the month. Not only did he gain a large amount of Beast Taming Power, but his Intimidating Roar had also increased by one level.
The level two Intimidating Roar was enough to daze contracted spirits of the same level for a while.
The Slime’s eyes widened, and it directly unleashed the Violent Sitting Kill skill.
Its terrifying body leaped up. Everyone looked up, as if gazing upon the excrement of a god.
*Boom!*
The Windrunner Beast was instantly sat upon, not even letting out a miserable cry.
The battle had just begun, but it was already over.
“I forfeit, I forfeit!”
Tang Lie immediately said, his eyes filled with worry.
On the competition platform, the Slime was twisting its hips, clearly crushing the Windrunner Beast.
“Alright! Chen Shu!”
Shen Wushuang immediately said.
“If the Slime sits any longer, the Windrunner Beast might really die.
No one can withstand something this big.”
Chen Shu smiled and asked, “Tang Shao, do you still want to participate in the Beast Taming competition?”
Tang Lie said earnestly, “I think classmate Xia Bing is more suitable. Whoever doesn’t let her go, I’ll have a problem with them!”
He had no choice. His contracted spirit’s life was in the other person’s hands.
“Survival, there’s no shame in it!”
One must admit, ever since entering the special training class, Tang Lie’s face-changing skills had likely reached the maximum level.
“Very good!”
Chen Shu smiled and put away his golden Slime.
The Windrunner Beast looked like a dead dog, its body flattened, resembling a specimen.
Only the faint sound of breathing proved it was still alive.
Chen Shu looked down and said,
“Who else has any objections? I’ll settle them all at once!”
The people below were silent. With the thirty-meter giant Slime standing there, who would dare to voice an opinion?
“Du Long, I thought you looked a little unconvinced just now?”
Du Long’s heart suddenly jolted. He immediately put on a smiling face and said,
“How could that be? Whatever Class President says goes. I’m the first to support it!”
Although he had also become a level nine Beast Tamer, his Earth Tyrant Dragon was truly no match.
Everyone was in utter silence. Du Long and Tang Lie, once called prodigies, were no longer arrogant. They had been smoothed out by oppressive forces.
“In such a fine place of learning, how could such a ruffian emerge?”
“That’s good then!”
Chen Shu nodded and said, “Your attitude, Uncle is very satisfied with!”
