Chapter 70: Could It Be a Descendant of a Divine Beast?

"No way... they both know too?!"

Seeing the expressions on Hu Xiaoxiao and Yi Zimeng's faces, Xue Bingning felt a bit flustered for a moment.

She herself hadn't recognized Old Guo, nor the origin of that token Luo Shuiyan had.

Yet, the students in her own class had recognized them...

Although she was leading an Ordinary Class, the students in this Ordinary Class were not ordinary at all...

Moreover, looking at the strength of Hu Xiaoxiao and the other two, while they couldn't compare to Luo Shuiyan, they were clearly not inferior to those students in the key classes! All three were now Intermediate Beastmasters, and the strength of their Spirit Beasts was also not to be trifled with.

Xue Bingning took a deep breath; this was her first year on the job leading a class, and she hadn't expected it to be this exciting.

Perhaps she could really rely on this batch of students to directly rank among the renowned instructors and become the object of envy for many other instructors!

"Instructor, does that Spirit Beast still need to be tested?"

Lin Xue'er came to Xue Bingning's side and asked softly.

"The three of you don't need to, but as the team leader, Shui Yan's Spirit Beast also needs to be tested."

Xue Bingning nodded with a smile; her attitude toward the group could be said to be getting friendlier by the day.

Luo Shuiyan's expression at this moment was also very calm.

Originally, she had been a bit worried that Xiaobai's strength was advancing too quickly.

In such a short time since enrollment, it had leaped directly from a Second-tier Spirit Beast to a Fourth Tier, spanning two whole major realms!

Furthermore, Xiaobai's cultivation was even higher than her own; if this were to get out, it would likely easily attract the attention of some people.

At that time, it would likely cause a lot of trouble.

But now it was different.

Now that she had made the acquaintance of Old Guo and obtained that significant wooden token.

From now on, in this Tianque Academy, or even in the entire Xi'an Ancient Capital, and even within the Great Jin Dynasty.

If anyone wanted to move against her, they would likely have to weigh the consequences! After all, a Saint-level powerhouse was not someone just anyone could afford to offend.

Next, Jiang Che was placed onto the testing platform.

As the light flickered, Jiang Che's information was presented before everyone's eyes.

"Thirty-seventh-level, Fourth Tier Spirit Beast!"

"Bloodline Grade: Golden-grade!"

"As expected of a Spirit Beast contracted by a genius, it truly is extraordinary; both the Spirit Beast and the Beast Tamer have such monstrous talent!"

"It looks quite plain and harmless on the outside, but who would have thought its strength would be so terrifying!"

"It's unknown what kind of Spirit Beast it is, but with such monstrous talent, its origins must certainly be extraordinary."

After seeing Jiang Che's information, the instructors responsible for the testing couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

After all, Jiang Che's current strength was truly somewhat terrifying.

One had to know that many senior students' Spirit Beasts were not necessarily as formidable as Jiang Che.

"Wait! Something's not right!"

Suddenly, one of them let out an exclamation, their eyes full of disbelief.

"Look! This is the previous test record for this Spirit Beast!"

"It is recorded as a Black Iron-grade bloodline, the level was only sixteenth-level, and it was only a Second-Tier Monster Beast!"

"Now that so little time has passed, how did it grow to this realm?!"

"How is this possible? Is there something wrong with our testing machine?"

These two pieces of data were so vastly different that the instructors responsible for testing at Tianque Academy were, for a moment, doubting reality.

"Absolutely impossible, our machine would never have a problem!"

"Even if it did have a problem, it should have been the last time that was wrong." Once this information came out, many of the surrounding students watching were shocked.

"Hiss~ I really didn't expect this! This newcomer Luo Shuiyan actually possesses a Fourth Tier strength Spirit Beast!"

"She is an Advanced Beast Master herself and has a Fourth Tier Spirit Beast; no wonder Luo Shuiyan dared to sign up for the Selection Tournament even though she is only a freshman!"

"It seems there is another formidable rival in this Selection Tournament..."

Amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, Luo Shuiyan hurried away from the academy with Lin Xue'er and the others.

Now that they had successfully signed up, the next step was to improve their strength as quickly as possible before the competition.

"Hehe, this is truly interesting. I didn't expect a freshman to have such formidable strength!"

"If you were a student from my same term, you might really have become a powerful opponent for me."

"But unfortunately, you are still too young and too weak, having just joined Tianque Academy!"

Within the crowd, a pair of eyes watched the backs of Luo Shuiyan and the others as they left, whispering to themselves.

On the badge on this person's chest, there were four moons and five stars embroidered! This was a Five-Star Spirit-level Beast Master, and their strength was not to be trifled with.

A Five-Star Spirit-level Beast Master, whose strength was not to be trifled with, was a full major realm higher than Luo Shuiyan!

And this was the true level of powerhouses among the fourth-year students! On the other side, because Jiang Che had displayed the powerful strength of the Fourth Tier in this test! His bloodline had also been upgraded to Golden-grade.

Many big figures in the Xi'an Ancient City had taken notice of him.

Previously, Jiang Che was only a Black Iron-grade bloodline, and even if he was a Second-tier Spirit Beast, in everyone's eyes, he was useless.

After all, the level of one's bloodline determined the future ceiling of a Spirit Beast.

It also determined the future ceiling of the Beast Tamer.

A Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast was destined to become a waste in the future.

Previously, everyone had felt that Luo Shuiyan was truly unlucky to have contracted a Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast.

After all, with Luo Shuiyan's talent, contracting a Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast was a complete waste of potential.

But now the situation had reversed, with Jiang Che's test results out.

Compared to Luo Shuiyan, the many powerhouses were instead even more focused on Jiang Che.

After all, a Spirit Beast with infinite potential that could continuously evolve was even more astonishing than Luo Shuiyan, an Advanced Beast Master! No matter how outstanding Luo Shuiyan's talent was, if she could not be made to submit, she still could not be used for one's own purposes.

But a Spirit Beast was different; with that tyrannical bloodline, there would always be a way to make use of it...

For a time, the entire Xi'an Ancient City was surging with undercurrents.

"In my opinion, that Spirit Beast is very likely a descendant of a Legendary-Level Spirit Beast!"

"But thinking about it carefully, it feels a bit off."

"After all, let alone a descendant of a Legendary-Level Spirit Beast, even a true Legendary-Level bloodline Spirit Beast shouldn't have such monstrous growth speed, right?!"

"In less than two months, it jumped from a Second-tier Spirit Beast to a Fourth-tier Spirit Beast, and its bloodline has also changed..."

"If it is even more terrifying than a Legendary-Level Spirit Beast... could it be a Mythical-level bloodline Spirit Beast?!"

"That is probably unlikely; one must know that descendants of divine beasts possess powerful strength no less than the King Rank the moment they are born!"

"That Spirit Beast called Xiaobai, although it advances rapidly, is still far from the King Rank!"

For a time, the many powerhouses discussed it heatedly; they were extremely curious about Jiang Che!

"It really is a strange and peculiar Spirit Beast."

"Although I don't know what kind of bloodline it has, even if it isn't a divine beast, it must be extraordinary!"

"Send more people to focus on that Luo Shuiyan and her Spirit Beast; these two are more mysterious than the other..."
