Chapter 35: Raining Destruction! Annihilation of the Jin Gang Ant Team!

Su Yang raised his thumb and nodded upward.

Zhang Ruolin looked up and saw the massive Storm Eagle.

She sucked in a sharp breath!

What a huge pet beast!

She had known before that Su Yang's pet was an eagle, but she had never seen one up close!

But Su Yang really was their savior.

If Su Yang's pet could carry him through the air, it could surely return quickly to call for help!

"Su Yang, hurry and go notify the instructor!" Zhang Ruolin shouted.

"Why notify the instructor?" Su Yang couldn't help laughing. "You want him to come collect your corpses?"

Zhang Ruolin urgently said: "Call the instructor to save us!"

"Isn't me saving you good enough?"

"I know you can handle Black-Iron High-Grade ferocious beasts, but there are too many of those Jin Gang ants!"

"No problem!" Su Yang shouted to the Storm Eagle, "Let's go, wipe out all those Jin Gang ants!"

The Storm Eagle let out a piercing eagle cry and carried Su Yang back into the sky.

"Aim at the frontmost Jin Gang ant—use Wind Blade!"

A ten-meter-long wind blade, howling with wind, shot straight into the Jin Gang ant swarm.

Under the Storm Eagle's masterful control of wind techniques, a single strike shattered the metallic armor on the Jin Gang ants' backs, spraying out disgusting slime!

"Boom!"

The Black-Iron High-Grade Jin Gang ant, mid-run, collapsed outright and slid over ten meters.

The Jin Gang ants behind it all stopped, the swarm caught by surprise; they glared angrily at the sky and helplessly spat corrosive acid upward…

Those acids fell before reaching fifty meters above ground—utterly useless against the Storm Eagle!

The Storm Eagle hovered high above, looking down at the ants with disdain.

This is aerial superiority!

"Storm Eagle, wipe them all out!"

In just three minutes, not a single Jin Gang ant remained alive on the ground.

Limbs and broken legs were scattered everywhere.

The Storm Eagle pecked open the Jin Gang ants' heads and swallowed all their core crystals.

Having just evolved to Black-Iron High-Grade, the Storm Eagle needed to absorb massive energy to become a true Black-Iron High-Grade pet beast!

These Jin Gang ants' core crystals were metal-affinity—perfect for the Storm Eagle to consume.

The eight young beastmasters who had been chased by the Jin Gang ants had stopped, watching as the Storm Eagle leisurely pecked at the core crystals like snacks; all wore expressions of deep anguish.

Those core crystals could be exchanged for rations and daily necessities!

"How come I feel Su Yang's become even scarier since we came to the wasteland?"

"I think he can take on our whole class alone now!"

"I feel the same!"

"Chen Hao, don't you dare say it—could you beat ten Su Yangs? Go try!"

"Did I ever say that? I never said it—if I did, may my son be born without a butt!"

"…"

As Su Yang was selecting ant legs, Zhang Ruolin rushed over with Gao Min.

At first, she had been stunned by Su Yang's strength… now, she was numb to it!

"Su Yang, thank you!"

"No problem—we're classmates!"

Come to think of it, Su Yang should thank his classmates.

They'd lured out over twenty Jin Gang ants at once, letting him clear them all in one go—it was very satisfying!

"Su Yang, why didn't you just attack when we were being chased?" Gao Min asked, slightly upset. "Why waste time talking to Zhang Ruolin? Look—you could've saved me from getting hurt if you'd acted sooner!"

On Gao Min's hand was a patch of corrosion from strong acid—likely to leave a permanent scar.

"The instructor said, in the wasteland, don't steal other students' prey!" Su Yang said seriously. "So before I acted, I had to confirm with Zhang Ruolin—if you were just setting traps to lure ferocious beasts, wouldn't I have ruined your plan?"

"You…"

Gao Min was about to say more, but Zhang Ruolin cut her off: "Gao Min, apologize to Su Yang!"

With no choice but to obey Zhang Ruolin, Gao Min hesitated, then apologized to Su Yang.

"No problem, then I'm off!"

Su Yang spread his arms, and the Storm Eagle lifted him back into the sky.

Someone whispered: "I'm so envious of Su Yang—I wish I could fly too!"

"In your dreams! In your dreams, you've got everything!"

"Su Yang's pet beast must be Black-Iron High-Grade now!"

"Definitely!"

"…"

Zhang Ruolin turned to Gao Min: "Gao Min, watch your tongue from now on—no matter what, Su Yang saved us, understood?"

"Alright, alright! It's my fault! Ruolin, don't be mad! I already apologized, didn't I?"

"Come on! Let's go find some ant legs to roast tonight! Hurry back, or it'll be dark!"

"…"

Soon after Su Yang returned to the base, the four practical training instructors of Class One gathered together.

Xiong Changfeng gave a brief report on how Su Yang had easily slain twenty-one Golden Ants earlier that day.

"In my opinion, with Su Yang's strength, he is no longer suited to remain here!"

"His pet beast is too powerful—nearly invincible in this wilderness; this place is no longer suitable for his training!" Tan Guo agreed: "If Su Yang stays here any longer, it's merely a waste of time—his strength has far surpassed that of his peers in Seven-Star City!"

Another practical training instructor, Zhang Zhongjie, asked Li Meng: "Teacher Li, does Su Yang possess some special innate talent or bodily constitution?"
