Chapter 5: Level 1 Monster Beast King Kong Ape

After eating and drinking his fill, Ye Tian touched the Red Sun Tree with one hand while practicing the Water Shield Technique with the other.

Night fell.

Ye Tian finally raised his Wood Talent Ability to C-Grade; this was his first C-Grade Talent Ability.

"My physical fitness has improved a bit more!"

If things continue like this, he feared that in the future, his physical fitness alone would be enough to rival an Ability User; if he were to fight an Ability User in close quarters, he might be able to finish them off directly.

After the Wood Talent Ability reached C-Grade, the Red Sun Tree still had an effect; he could absorb about one point of Wood Power per hour.

At this rate, he could only absorb 24 points of Wood Power in a day.

Even if he stayed here until he left the Secret Realm, he would have no way to raise his Wood Talent Ability to B-Grade.

"I'll spend the night nearby and leave when it gets light!"

A night passed.

Ye Tian ate a little more food before leaving this place.

Afterward, he encountered several fierce beasts, killed them, and obtained some points.

However, he did not encounter any spirit trees similar to the Red Sun Tree, and even if he did, he would not have the time to slowly absorb the Wood Power.

He wanted to find Five Elements Material that was easy to carry, so he could absorb the Five Elements Power at any time and improve his Talent Ability.

After searching for several hours, he did not find any materials helpful for improving his Talent Ability, but he did find a spirit herb.

"This is Jin Yang Grass, a low-level spirit herb that can be used to treat injuries; many shops buy it, and one stalk is worth 5,000 yuan!"

Ye Tian slowly dug out this Jin Yang Grass, then made a small wooden box, placed it inside, and only then put it away.

There were many spirit herbs in the Secret Realm, but they were basically all low-level spirit herbs; if one searched carefully, one could still find some, and earning a bit of money was no problem.

……

Somewhere in the Secret Realm.

Cao Dong was searching for the tracks of fierce beasts; he was a student of the Fire Element Talent Class, at the Primary Ability User realm, and had practiced six Strange Arts, so his strength was quite good.

His goal this time was also the Top Ten!

And to get into the Top Ten, it was best to find those powerful fierce beasts, such as those comparable to Peak Ability Apprentice, which were already Quasi-Monster Beast; once killed, it was enough to obtain quite a few points.

Fierce beasts only comparable to Primary Ability Apprentice, even if killed, could only earn one point; one shouldn't think about becoming Top Ten by killing too many such ordinary fierce beasts.

"It's very quiet here, not even the sound of insects; it should be the territory of some Quasi-Monster Beast," Cao Dong guessed.

Soon, he arrived on a Bamboo Mountain.

At this moment, he saw a golden ape that was shining all over.

"This is..."

He trembled all over and, without saying a word, prepared to run away immediately.

This was a King Kong Ape!

Although it was only a King Kong Ape that had just evolved and was a Level 1 Monster Beast, the King Kong Ape had a powerful bloodline; it was a true A-Grade bloodline!

Monster Beast valued bloodlines; the more powerful the bloodline, the more terrifying the combat power at the same rank, which was somewhat similar to the Talent Ability grade of a Talented Ability User.

For example, being both Primary Ability User, an A-Grade Talent Ability was definitely more powerful than a B-Grade Talent Ability!

A Level 1 King Kong Ape had a body of steel and iron; even if he used his most powerful means to attack it, it would be difficult to break its defense.

Those at the Intermediate Ability User realm were not this King Kong Ape's match, let alone him!

At this moment.

The King Kong Ape also discovered Cao Dong, and after letting out a roar, it crossed more than ten meters in one step and then chased after Cao Dong.

In the blink of an eye, Cao Dong was caught up.

"Fire Snake Technique!"

A fire snake killed toward the King Kong Ape.

However, this E-Grade Fire Element Technique couldn't hurt the King Kong Ape at all; the fire snake collided with the King Kong Ape's body and dissipated directly, only burning off a little bit of fur.

Just at this moment, the King Kong Ape slapped over.

With the frail body of an Ability User, if he were hit by this slap, he would likely die on the spot.

"Fire Shield Technique!"

A layer of fire-red shield protected Cao Dong's body.

But his Fire Shield Technique had only reached the Entry Level, and the defensive effect was not powerful.

Crack!

The King Kong Ape cracked the Fire Shield Technique with one slap, and with another slap down, it smashed it directly.

Immediately following, the King Kong Ape clapped its hands, seemingly wanting to slap Cao Dong to death.

But just at this moment, Cao Dong's Wristwatch triggered a layer of energy shield, blocking the King Kong Ape's attack.

Seeing this, Cao Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

This Energy Shield was equivalent to the effect of a D-Grade defensive Strange Art, and it was in a state of full activation.

But the next second, his expression changed.

He saw the energy shield trembling constantly, seemingly about to be unable to hold on.

"So this is the strength of a Level 1 King Kong Ape; it's too terrifying!"

Cao Dong did not sit and wait for death; he fled while bearing the energy shield, but was knocked flying by the King Kong Ape time and time again.

One minute passed, and the energy shield began to crack.

Just when he thought he was about to lose his life, a hand grabbed him, and then the surrounding trees retreated rapidly.

He knew he was saved; it was clearly the school's teacher who had arrived.

However, this also meant that he had been eliminated, and his points were locked in.

……

Outside the F13 Secret Realm.

These teachers also knew the news that a Level 1 King Kong Ape had appeared inside the Secret Realm.

"A Level 1 King Kong Ape, its strength is likely comparable to an Intermediate Ability User or an Advanced Ability User. These students haven't experienced much combat and lack battle experience. Even Lin Qingya, who is an Intermediate Ability User, is no match for the King Kong Ape. None of them are a match for the King Kong Ape; they wouldn't even be able to hold out for long against the Energy Shield in their Wristwatch. Should we intervene and kill the King Kong Ape to avoid any accidents?" one teacher suggested.

However, the other teachers disagreed.

"A mere King Kong Ape, what kind of danger is that? These students need to grow up as soon as possible; we cannot protect them for their whole lives! Besides, I heard there have been some problems over there, and even many university students have gone to provide support. In a few months, they will also be people who need to take the college entrance examination. If they get into university, they will face even more dangerous situations."

"That's right. Although our Donghai City is in a relatively safe area, the Evil God Society has been jumping around lately, and there is no shortage of trouble. These students cannot always grow up in a greenhouse environment. It's just a little danger, why panic?"

"Right, keep the King Kong Ape. If any student kills the King Kong Ape, give them 500 points directly!"

Seeing that most of the teachers agreed to keep the King Kong Ape, the other teachers had nothing more to say.

However, they still had to be prepared to rescue the students at any time to prevent them from being killed by the King Kong Ape.

Not long after, many students in the Secret Realm also learned of the King Kong Ape's existence, and some Ability User students prepared to join forces to surround and kill it.

A Beast like the King Kong Ape is inherently very valuable. Even if only one person can get the points, it would be good for the others to obtain its body materials.

Besides, maybe the person who kills the King Kong Ape will be themselves!

Soon, some students found the King Kong Ape, but they all underestimated its strength. One by one, they were struck by the King Kong Ape, their Energy Shields were triggered, they were eliminated, and then they were taken away by the teachers.

However, these students also inflicted some damage on the King Kong Ape.

Before they knew it, time had reached the third day.

A valley.

The King Kong Ape was surrounded by seven Ability Users.

These seven were geniuses from the Genius Class. Each of them possessed a B-Grade Innate Ability, had practiced one or even two C-rank Techniques, and their cultivation had all reached the Intermediate Ability User realm.

Lin Qingya.

Zhang Shao.

Li Shaohe.

Gao Weiwei.

……

The seven of them had a brief discussion and decided to attack the King Kong Ape together.

"Kill the King Kong Ape first. As for who gets the points, we'll decide later. The person who gets the points will compensate the other six with other things!" Lin Qingya proposed.

"Good!"

The other six all agreed.

Boom!!!!

The seven fought the King Kong Ape, forcing it to retreat step by step. However, its body was tough and its defensive power was super strong, allowing it to forcibly block the C-rank Technique attacks of the seven Intermediate Ability Users.

The King Kong Ape's attacks were also sufficiently powerful; every casual strike was comparable to a C-rank Technique attack.

As time passed, the King Kong Ape's injuries gradually deepened, and its strength was also gradually weakening.

But just when they thought the King Kong Ape could no longer hold on, a terrifying power suddenly erupted from its body.

Boom!!!!

Golden energy erupted from the King Kong Ape's body, and then it slammed into them, sending Lin Qingya and the other seven flying backward, all of them suffering non-trivial injuries.

"Innate Ability — Vajra Strike!"

Lin Qingya and the others were very shocked.

Beasts can also perform Strange Arts; their Strange Arts do not rely mainly on cultivation, but originate from their bloodline.

However, many Beasts are unable to stimulate the Strange Arts within their bloodlines. Beasts capable of performing Strange Arts are still very rare, and the King Kong Ape was only a Level 1 Beast, even one that had just evolved and broken through, yet it actually performed the Vajra Strike, a Strange Art most suitable for the King Kong Ape clan.

Vajra Strike is not considered a very powerful Innate Ability, but when performed by a King Kong Ape, it is enough to rival a C-rank Technique at the Great Success Realm.

Just when Lin Qingya and the others thought they were in trouble, the King Kong Ape fled directly.

Only then did they react.

"This King Kong Ape forced itself to perform an Innate Ability; it will inevitably suffer a bloodline backlash, and its injuries must be very severe!"

"Chase!"

But they were also injured, and their speed had become very slow.

By comparison, the King Kong Ape was inherently a very fast Beast, and the bloodline backlash had not yet manifested immediately, so in the blink of an eye, it left these people behind and disappeared from sight.
