Chapter 365: Su Ping's Strength! Monopolizing Dream Island?
"Tsk..."
In a dark room, a crisp tsk sound echoed, and a crimson soul fire flickered slightly. Within the fiery glow, a pair of eyes revealed a hint of intrigued interest.
Even this ferocious sword strike, which exceeded everyone's imagination and instantly slew a Sovereign-ranked being, did not seem particularly shocking in his eyes.
"Teacher, this is..."
Mu Yu looked at Charles in surprise. Clearly, the strength displayed by Su Ping's mutated origami figure also surpassed his expectations.
However, Charles showed no change in expression. He smiled and explained, "It seems to be a low-level advanced technique, Sword Intent, but it's not as simple as just Sword Intent. It should be related to the direction of mutation of this mutated origami figure."
"This mutated origami figure is quite interesting and has great research value. Unfortunately..."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yu lowered his head, "I've let you down, teacher. Last time..."
Charles waved his hand impatiently, "I don't like hearing the same old excuses. Your physical death was also for the sake of testing my new usage of 'Death Incarnation.'
Don't blame yourself. Alright, let's continue watching. There will be a chance to meet again in the future."
"This little guy's origami figure shouldn't be this simple, right? If it's as simple as that, I'd be very disappointed!"
Mu Yu didn't understand his meaning, but he didn't have the courage to ask further questions, so he just nodded.
Charles's eyes burned with blood-red flames, and within those flames, there seemed to be another strange gray flame swaying slowly, paying attention to the figure on the screen alongside Charles.
...
[Student No. 0001, Su Ping, personally kills a Sovereign-ranked savage beast, Black Water Xuan Snake, with his own companion beast, gaining 200 points in the Provincial Exam! Ranking increased by 1876 positions, current ranking: 1.]
The crisp notification from the student's ringtone finally snapped the surrounding shocked students back to reality.
Two hundred exam credits!
This was equivalent to eliminating ten students of the same strength and killing twenty Overlord-ranked savage beasts.
No participant could ignore such an impressive score.
However, for those who had just witnessed that sword strike, there was no room for envy or jealousy. It was an absolute display of overwhelming strength, and even if others wanted to replicate it, it would be extremely difficult.
This Su Ping, he's not just a genius breeder, and in just one year, his companion beast's strength has increased so ridiculously?
Generally speaking, breeders and beastmasters complement each other, and it's only after reaching the Sovereign rank that innate talent differences become apparent.
With Su Ping's identity, he naturally wouldn't lack resources for improvement, but has he reached this level in just one year of awakening?
Not only were the onlookers around them surprised, but even at this moment, on the Jianghai Province forum, a post with unimaginable speed shot to the top of the trending list.
[Su Ping's Strength!!]
The simple five words were in bold red font, and the symbol at the end also had a 'Boom' character.
This was enough to prove that the appearance of this topic directly set off an uproar on the Jianghai Province forum, which was already sensitive to the slightest wind and grass movement.
The video from just now, or rather, that clip of less than three seconds, immediately swept through the entire forum and all related chat groups at the fastest speed.
"I knew it! President Qin wouldn't be the kind of person who lets others take advantage of him. If Su Ping didn't have the strength to participate, President Qin wouldn't have agreed!"
"Who was it that said Su God would find a team to act as his bodyguard?"
"The person above, you're the one who's been spreading rumors all along. Don't think the internet has no memory! I remember clearly!
Three hours ago, you used another account on the Jianghai forum to post 'Analysis of Su Ping's Bodyguard' and at 11 PM last night, you posted 'Su Ping's Upcoming Whitewashing Method.'
I've been keeping an eye on your IP, so don't try to act innocent!"
"Me? No way!"
"Speaking of which, are origami figures really that strong?"
Some were joking, but others were serious:
"Su Ping's origami figure isn't an ordinary one. Didn't Master Hu, the commentator, also mention that? It's a mutated origami figure, and it has already completed its evolution. You can't analyze mutated companion beasts using common sense."
Upon hearing this, someone felt disappointed:
"Oh? I thought there was hope for my dumb pet. So it's a mutated origami figure? Can Su God find a way for ordinary origami figures?"
"Ordinary origami figures? What's there to say about these shameful creatures of the undead? Many undead breeding masters haven't achieved it, and you're expecting it from a young breeder like Su Ping?
And Su Ping's main breeding direction isn't on the Wood Wolf, is it?"
"I wish I had a mutated Companion Beast."
"Bro, if you have such thoughts, you're absolutely right! Mutated Companion Beasts, they're definitely not just like Su God's!"
"To be honest, you can check my past posts. I have a mutated Mental-type Sky-Piercing Butterfly! It has both Space and Mental attributes, and its mutation is awesome, right?"
"But I can't find any channels for improvement or directions for evolution. I can only say that some mutated Companion Beasts look amazing, but they're not something an ordinary person can handle."
"However, I must say that if you have sufficient resources and can figure out the mutation and evolution of Companion Beasts, then mutated Companion Beasts do have potential."
Obviously, the last person's comment extinguished the enthusiasm for mutated Companion Beasts.
Indeed, someone like Su Ping seemed to have a lot of trouble.
But soon, someone raised a constructive question on the forum:
"Isn't Su God running a breeding center? If we have a mutated Companion Beast, can we go to Su God? This Origami Figure is mutated. I heard that Su God's first Companion Beast, the Wood Wolf, seems to be mutated too."
After this comment, the previous speaker didn't respond.
After all, he wasn't sure about this, and although he thought the chances were slim, Su Ping's reputation as a breeder seemed to have grown, and it wasn't easy to meet him casually.
Who knows how many people want to catch a glimpse of the Wood Wolf and the Solar Heart? But besides that time, there hasn't been any news of a new Wood Wolf or Solar Heart.
However, at this moment, an account named 'Peace and Safety' replied again:
"Su Breeder said he's interested in all kinds of Companion Beast mutations. Although he can't guarantee it, but for mutated Companion Beasts like the Mental and Space-type Sky-Piercing Butterfly, you can bring them to Su Breeder."
"Bro, you're exposed! You must be Su God's friend or relative, or someone close to him."
Indeed, it's true. In just a short while, Fatty conveyed the online dynamics to Su Ping through the Soul Contract.
Naturally, this included the netizens' exclamations about mutated Companion Beasts.
And this promise was made by Su Ping, who was standing next to Dream Island.
Fatty's online monitoring was related to his abilities, but as long as his Mental Power and Electric Power were maintained, he could do a lot in the virtual world.
However, Su Ping wasn't calm either.
The corpse of the Black Water Serpent was thrown to the shore, and at the same time, the Frost Wave Pythons surrounding the river also avoided this area.
Su Ping took a step forward under everyone's gaze, and the next moment, he was about to cross the wide river and enter the heart of the Provincial Exam Realm.
However, at this moment, a voice sounded:
"Su Ping, do you want to team up?"
This voice was out of place.
But it was also the first thought of most people present.
If before, everyone wanted to avoid this legendary breeder of Jianghai, fearing that he would drag them down, and even those who wanted to befriend him were hoping to get his help in breeding their Companion Beasts in the future.
But now, it was completely different.
Su Ping's strength had proven that he wasn't here to show off.
He was here to snatch the gold!
Su Ping glanced at the speaker, who was among the strongest people present.
He was a man with thick eyebrows.
He had three Companion Beasts, a Marquis Sixth Rank Silverback Baboon, an Overlord Eighth Rank Seven Treasure Gourd Vine, and even a strange mechanical Companion Beast, an Overlord Fourth Rank.
Obviously, being able to afford a mechanical Companion Beast, a luxury among Companion Beasts, indicated the man's strength and background.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
But Su Ping smiled slightly and shook his head:
"Thank you, but no need."
The man's strength, even if not among the top participants, Su Ping believed that in terms of quality, this guy could definitely rank in the top hundred, or even the top fifty.
But Su Ping didn't even glance at him.
This attitude made the thick-browed man frown slightly:
"Su Ping, the Dream Island is extremely dangerous, with ten Imperial Rank Savage Beasts and many Overlord Rank Beast Packs.
With your strength, you might be able to defeat a few Savage Beasts, but it's also very dangerous..."
Obviously, the man's words made sense, and many people nodded in agreement.
To enter this Dream Island, although Su Ping seemed to effortlessly slay a Sovereign-ranked Savage Beast, many onlookers quickly realized that such powerful skills would incur significant consumption, making it impossible to use them continuously without pause.
Once trapped within Dream Island, while there may not be a life-threatening crisis, elimination from the competition would significantly lower one's ranking, rendering it a loss.
The young man furrowed his brows and continued, "Su Ping, rest assured. This Provincial Examination has a complete judging panel, and Chairman Xu from the Beastmaster Association is here as a judge.
For jointly killing Savage Beasts, Chairman Xu and the judging panel will assess individual contributions and allocate exam credits accordingly. No one will take advantage!"
Indeed, the young man's words were sincere.
Unfortunately, he seemed to have misunderstood Su Ping, or perhaps Su Ping had never intended to trouble the judging panel in this regard.
"Thank you, but no need!"
Su Ping raised his eyebrows, not even bothering to glance back at them. Instead, he fixed his gaze on the Dream Island in the center.
His eyes seemed to penetrate the thin veil of mist, focusing on the island.
Dream Island, with its surrounding river, also boasted an intriguing terrain.
It was a valley wrapped in mist.
The sole entrance was the river from which the Black Water Serpent had emerged.
This was the only path leading into Dream Island.
Of course, one might also enter the valley of Dream Island through flying companion beasts, but this condition seemed rather harsh.
At the boundary where the low-hanging clouds met the mist, blurry figures occasionally leaped through the air.
Clearly, flying Savage Beasts also inhabited the sky.
Humans, unable to fly on their own, would heavily rely on companion beasts once they took to the sky.
Unless there was no other way, no one would dare take such a risk.
So...
Su Ping turned his gaze to the valley entrance where the river led, the only entry point to Dream Island. A smile played on his lips as he lifted his chin.
Since he had been so audacious before the competition, he might as well continue in that vein!
With this thought, Su Ping waved at Qian Yi, who was standing on the water, and then patted Xiao Qing's head. She immediately understood and leaped across the river.
The young man watched Su Ping's resolute figure, feeling helpless.
Before entering the Provincial Examination's Mystic Realm, he had thought that with his strength, he wouldn't need to team up with others. Wasn't the top ten within his grasp?
But once inside the realm, reality slapped him hard.
The Su Ping before him was indeed an excellent choice.
However, with Su Ping's refusal, there was nothing he could do. Li Han wouldn't persistently cling to him.
Within the Provincial Examination's Mystic Realm, numerous strong contenders had gathered, and among the contracted companion beasts, some possessed advanced techniques!
At this thought, Li Han's gaze toward Su Ping's back flashed with brilliance. The Provincial Examination had only just begun.
Three whole days!
Dream Island, a must-contest location for all participating students, would see an increasing influx of powerful contenders in the coming days. Then, he would witness how Su Ping could continue his audacity!
With this thought, the youth named Li Han exhaled. Regardless, Su Ping had already slain the Black Water Serpent, and within Dream Island lay the Imperial-ranked resource, the Dream Fog Stone.
Regardless, Li Han also wanted to enter and see if he could stumble upon great fortune, finding the only Imperial-ranked resource in the Provincial Examination's Mystic Realm?
Thus, he waved his hand, and with three companion beasts protecting him, he followed behind Su Ping, crossing the river and repelling the Overlord-ranked Frost Wave Pythons that dared approach.
Then, he landed on Dream Island, watching a figure heading towards the valley in the center of the island. He followed suit.
Not only Li Han, but many others had also entered Dream Island after the blocking Sovereign-ranked Black Water Serpent's demise.
However, just as everyone headed towards the valley, Su Ping, who was at the forefront, suddenly turned around and faced the crowd.
The faint smile on his lips made everyone's hearts sink with an ominous premonition.
Their premonition proved correct.
The giant origami figure with a large bamboo hat stood before Su Ping, blocking the valley entrance.
Finally, Su Ping spoke, "From now on, no one is allowed to enter Dream Island. If you want to come in, it's simple—defeat my companion beast!"
Upon hearing this, both inside and outside the arena erupted in an uproar once more!
