Chapter 951: Chapter 952: Simulation Assessment Begins

"Be sure not to let it use Crimson Judgement— that move can easily harm others by mistake."

"You, are you alright?"

Feng Yuan looked worriedly at Najia. Although the anger on Najia’s face had not subsided, upon closer reflection, Feng Yuan could guess the reason. It wasn’t surprising that Najia, who was more emotional than Agunas, also felt this way. Just as Feng Yuan was about to say something, Najia shook his head and said,

"Actually, there’s no need for you to participate in this simulation assessment. It’s meaningless for you."

"Who says so? It can serve as a reference."

After staring at Feng Yuan for a while, Najia said helplessly,

"Do you really need a reference? If you wanted, you could perform much better. I’ll go find him."

Seeing Najia leave directly, Feng Yuan scratched his head and muttered quietly,

"How do you know everything?"

In the end, Feng Yuan casually chose a few teammates who seemed easy-going. As for cooperation? The moment he pulled out the black Ancient Book, that concern disappeared.

"Is this really okay?"

The man following behind Feng Yuan looked at him with some surprise. He had thought Feng Yuan was just being boastful, but he really did just randomly choose people? As a member of the Maomu City Defense Corps, he knew his comrades well enough to see that those selected could not work together at all.

Although there were attackers and supporters, the ultimate moves and attributes did not match at all. In an actual battle, they would probably have to fight independently. With such a setup, not to mention scoring high, even passing the assessment would be difficult.

"Do you need my help?"

Veronia floated behind Feng Yuan and asked. Feng Yuan scratched Xiao Ji’s neck and said,

"No need. You’re not my Spirit Beast, so you can’t participate in this assessment."

"Hmph, they can’t stop me anyway."

Veronia said bluntly. After all, even the Maomu City Beast Tamer Contest couldn’t stop the disturbances from Lorraine Tower, let alone a school assessment. No matter how seriously they took it, they couldn’t possibly place the same restrictions as a local Beast Tamer Contest; the locals didn’t have that many personnel to spare.

"Forget it, it’s not necessary, and Xiao Ji should be enough."

"Should I just flatten this place with a Crimson Judgement?"

Agunas said exasperatedly. Although Xiao Ji was a Divine Beast, it was unrealistic to expect it to overpower so many levels, without using forbidden Divine Beast Techniques. Xiao Ji’s attacks probably wouldn’t even affect an opponent of Rare Level.

"How could that be, they will definitely keep the strength at Good Level. Besides, what does it matter if we don’t restrain our power?"

Feng Yuan nonchalantly tossed the black Ancient Book, saying this as the Golden Colossus slowly rotated behind him. Agunas was stunned for a moment, not expecting him to actually dare to play this way. Although that object could be considered a part of his strength, using just that he could withstand a Divine Beast without falling behind, let alone for a school assessment...

"Let’s hope so."

Glancing at the Gale Battle Eagle, the man spoke somewhat helplessly. He realized that Feng Yuan seemed a bit off. But then again, his Spirit Beasts seemed overly numerous. He must be a scion of some major family. But such ignorance and arrogance— which family had raised him like this?

"Agunas, you and Big Cat stay here and wait for me, and you too."

Veronia glanced at Feng Yuan with some dissatisfaction. Agunas flicked its tail and looked at Feng Yuan warily,

"You’re not going to do something reckless, are you?"

"How could I mess up with such a trivial thing? Don’t you trust me?"

Feng Yuan said with some indignation. The other party stared at Feng Yuan for a while before speaking.

"I’ll trust you this once."

"Just getting through several checkpoints to reach the summit is enough? But these routes are really..."

It seemed to be to avoid the situation where Spirit Beasts that could fly or burrow might bypass the checkpoints. The rules specifically required progress to be made on the road without deviation.

Looking at the map with its array of different routes, Feng Yuan scratched his head and turned to those few ’teammates’ behind him,

"Can I get a suggestion?"

"That would be cheating, and we don’t know which route would suit you."

The Beastmaster of the Gale Battle Eagle glanced at Feng Yuan and said, reluctantly speaking up only because his Gale Battle Eagle inexplicably got along well with Xiao Ji; otherwise, they weren’t allowed to assist anyone taking the assessment outside of combat.

Seeing this, Feng Yuan put away the map and said,

"Since that’s the case, let’s just pick one randomly. Xiao Ji, you lead the way."

The Beastmaster looked puzzled as Xiao Ji led the group into a dense forest, which seemed an unlikely choice for limiting the flights of bird-type Spirit Beasts.

"Looks like there’s an ambush, but..."

Seeing the approaching Spirit Beasts, Feng Yuan looked to Xiao Ji who noticed the attackers were just at the Good Level, and although they were numerous, it wasn’t too concerned. With a fierce flap of its wings, a dark gray storm swept forward, blowing the Spirit Beasts away faster than they had arrived.

Those following behind Feng Yuan were stunned for a moment, having not expected this unfamiliar, eagle-like Spirit Beast to be so powerful. Just then, Feng Yuan sensed something and warned Xiao Ji,

"Be careful, a tough one is coming."

Xiao Ji nodded and let out a long cry as a blur of azure flame surrounded it, seemingly charging up as the ground trembled with the approach of something massive.

"I didn’t expect it to be you, this is really..."

Wu Chenghan looked at Feng Yuan with a headache, knowing full well the strength of his opponent. Although Hagu was powerful, facing Feng Yuan, especially with that eagle-type Spirit Beast’s Death Series penetrating ability, was troubling.

"What, you were just going to let me through?"

Feng Yuan said with a mischievous smile, although surprised to see the other in this mock examination, he presumed it was due to manpower shortages—not that anyone thought he was a spy—so his participation as an examiner wasn’t too strange.

"I would if I could, but there’s surveillance all over, and I can’t just let you pass. Even if I know I can’t defeat you, it wouldn’t change that."

Wu Chenghan said helplessly. To prevent any cheating, the testing ground was under constant surveillance. While he was aware of Feng Yuan’s capabilities, those monitoring the discipline at the site might not, and letting him pass directly could cause trouble for both parties.

"No problem. I’ll just let Xiao Ji take action," Feng Yuan said with a smile. Xiao Ji, glaring at the Fierce Water Elephant, Hagu, seemed eager to battle. Eyeing Xiao Ji cautiously, Hagu knew well that almost all of Xiao Ji’s ultimate moves involved penetrating death force power,

painful for any spirit affected by it.

Protagonists following behind Feng Yuan were curious—was the opponent really not planning to join the fight?

"Xiao Ji, go ahead."

Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s order, Xiao Ji let out a piercing screech, and the azure flames burst skyward. Wu Chenghan quickly moved aside. As for trying to use Xiao Ji’s attack on Hagu as a chance to ambush Feng Yuan? He didn’t think that was possible. Still, catching the warning in his earpiece, he somewhat reluctantly approached Feng Yuan using stealth.

Noticing Wu Chenghan’s stealth, Feng Yuan hesitated about whether to alert him, shaking his head,

"Are the monitors idiots?"

With a wave of his hand, dark shadows spread from his feet in all directions. Soon, Wu Chenghan, treading on the shadows, lost his invisibility, revealing himself outright, guessing correctly that Feng Yuan would have a means to counter an ambush. With a slight clench of his hand,

Shadows formed chains that tightly bound Wu Chenghan. Those following behind Feng Yuan were dumbfounded by the ease with which Wu Chenghan was restrained. Knowing that someone of rare level strength like Wu Chenghan, even with an assisting Spirit Beast, couldn’t be subdued so effortlessly,

they realized that at a minimum, legendary level strength was needed—had Feng Yuan truly attained such power? The group could scarcely believe it.
