Chapter 110: The Target is the Peak of the Mountain! Go! Go! Go!

“Well done, Xu. You tricked me without telling me. You’ve made great progress!”

Sun Qingxia’s raised her eyebrows as she said sarcastically, “When the patrol is over, I’ll take you to have fun in the Beast Arena. I’ll let you know my real strength!”

“Please don’t do that, Ms. Sun.” Xu Lang smiled apologetically. “I just happened to hear about it. It’s rare that we found three Autonomous Awakeners this year, so I paid a little attention to it.”

“HMPH!” Sun Qingxia glared at him and then looked at the gray-clothed man. She suddenly frowned. “Why do I get a feeling that his speed is still very stable? He has already reached the 980th level!”

“AH? !”

The corner of Xu Lang’s mouth twitched. His gaze was somewhat straight. “This… This is also not within my estimation range…”

“Qingxia! Xu Lang! Did Zhu Qin reach the top?”

Right at this moment, a Floating Stone Blanket flew down from the second peak and hovered in front of them.

A well-built man with an imposing bearing stood proudly in front of them. An overbearing aura of iron and blood could be sensed from his dark red armor.

“Boss, that’s right.”

The person who had just arrived was Lu Tiange, the captain of the mountain patrol squad. Xu Lang hurriedly put on a serious expression and said seriously,

“She has already reached the summit of the first peak. It seems that the ceremony of the Mountain Soul’s grace hasn’t ended yet.”

“HMM…” Lu Tiange nodded slightly as if he had understood something.

Sun Qingxia, who was beside him, hesitated for a moment before asking tentatively, “Lord Lu, for such a strong freshman, is there no response from the higher-ups? Don’t they want to make an exception by admitting her to the Law Enforcement Team?”

Lu Tiange snorted lightly and said with disapproval. “They have already contacted her! Yesterday, Lord Hua visited her in person, but she doesn’t like the small number of resources in our team. So, her reply was quite simple, ‘It’s too troublesome, I won’t join you.’ Then, she left without looking back.”

“How could she be so arrogant?” Lin Lang widened his eyes. “The Law Enforcement Team is the most resourceful unit in the academy. Why did she reject the invitation casually?”

“Her arrogance is not groundless!”

Lu Tiange curled his lips as he said bluntly, “Do you think this Life-bound Summoner is just lucky enough to sign a contract with a Little Flame Sparrow? Where do you think she got her Bloodline Talent? I bet there’s a great power behind her. I guess she came to our academy to gain experience!”

“I’m not surprised that she can reach the top, but…”

Lu Tiange paused and pouted his lips forward, “What’s wrong with him?”

Looking over in the direction, Sun Qingxia and Lin Lang were stunned at the same time as if they were turned into two stumps. They were totally dumbfounded.

The gray-clothed man had climbed to the 1,000th level steps when they were talking.

That was the 1,000th level!

Throughout the history of the academy, all Youth Form Pet Beasts that managed to climb to this level were considered extremely outstanding.

Zhu Qin’s Little Flame Sparrow was a good example. But how could Bai Wushang’s Demon Ape reach this level?

“His Demon Ape is mutated…”

Lin Lang tried to give a far-fetched explanation by organizing his words, but he paused before he could finish his words as he knew his explanation couldn’t hold water.

That’s right, it didn’t make sense. The mutation was indeed something without principles. It brought countless possibilities and could greatly change the strength of Transcendent Creatures.

However, if it was a violent Benign Mutation, the appearance of the Demon Ape would be changed remarkably.

But it was not the case according to the information obtained by Lin Lang.

This showed that the Demon Ape’s mutation wasn’t that great, and the increase of its strength was limited.

Sun Qingxia speculated, “Maybe its temperament is very outstanding, or its willpower is extremely tenacious.”

“I don’t know, maybe it has a bit of both.”

Lu Tiange shook his head and said, “At this point, what I said must have fallen on deaf ears. All these new students are going to push their limits.”

“You need to watch them closely. If anything goes wrong, you must go and rescue them immediately.”

“Lord Lu, don’t worry. We purposely stayed here to protect these new students.”

Lin Qingxia smiled and asked, “But what if he reaches the top?”

“It can’t be. Look, he’s very slow now. He shouldn’t be able to hold on much longer,” Lin Lang brought up his point of view.

Lu Tiange licked his lips and said straightforwardly, “Let’s wait and see… In addition, even if he fails now, I will report it to the higher-ups and try to recruit him into the Law Enforcement Team. He will be trained as a reserve for a while…”

…

The air was slightly thin at a height of more than 1,000 meters.

The blowing wind brought in a faint chill, which was so pleasant.

But Bai Wushang wished that the cold wind could be even chillier! It wasn’t piercing enough!

The chilly wind was unable to pacify his surging emotions!

“Ah Zhou, go get it!”

The Demon Ape was four meters tall. Its back was sturdy and its shoulders were broad. It was so strong as if nothing in this world could defeat it.

The muscles all over its body bulged like fists. It seemed that a furnace was stuffed into its body. Large amounts of steam flowed out from its mouth, nose, and ears.

“Roar! ! !”

The Devil Ape let out an angry roar. As its blood and Qi surged, it took another step up with ferocious momentum.

“The 1014th level! There are still ten more steps!”

Bai Wushang panted heavily because his heart was beating wildly. He could not calm down even after taking several deep breaths.

Excitement, anxiety, fanaticism, uneasiness… all sorts of emotions were brewing in the bottom of his heart, and he could not get rid of these feelings at all.

Not long ago, when the bell rang, the Demon Ape restored some strength inexplicably.

Before that, it hadn’t reached its limit. The Mountain Soul’s grace enhanced its strength remarkably. Then, it started to climb rapidly like a tiger with wings.

“CHIRRUP! CHIRRUP!”

The little rabbit sat on top of the Demon Ape’s head, waving its little paws to cheer for the Demon Ape.

“Big guy, go get it!”

“I’ve already seen the end point!”

“Go! Go! Go!”

“The 1015th level!”

“The 1016th level!”

“The 1017th level!”

Bai Wu Shang kept shouting in a low voice.

The silver-white Book of Oaths floated beside him. He was about to activate it at any time.

He remembered the warnings of Zhou Xue and Lu Tiange. He knew the dangers of climbing the Sacred Mountain very well.

Especially now, they were so close to the peak of the mountain! The difficulty had increased to the highest level!

Every step the Demon Ape took was filled with trepidation.

It was as if it was walking on thin ice or the edge of an abyss.

Its body was so tired, exhausted, and stiff as if it was wailing and lamenting. The Demon Ape was on the verge of collapse at this moment.

But it did not want to stop.

Ah Zhou understood something from the lesson it learned in its life.

Whenever it overcame a great difficulty in its life, its strength would be enhanced remarkably as if it realized a nirvana.

That was the idea in its mind.

And that was what it did.

Right now, it only had one belief.

Its only target was to reach the top!

“RIP!”

Dozens of bloodshot lines tore open the surface of its body, and a large amount of blood spurted out.

The Demon Ape didn’t stop as if it didn’t know what happened. Then, it took another step forward resolutely.

“Only three steps left!”

Bai Wushang roared like a beast.

As a Master, he also had mixed feelings at this moment.

He knew that Ah Zhou was taking a risk that could endanger its life.

Bai Wushang almost tried to stop the Demon Ape. “Would it be too dangerous?”

However, the Demon Ape wasn’t a Mortal Bone level Pet Beast with 6 stars, but 8 stars. It had a natural advantage at the Youth Form stage, so it was an extraordinary Pet Beast.

Secondly, Bai Wushang’s compatibility with the Demonic Ape was at the third stage of “Psychic”.

He could feel the Demon Ape’s firm belief.

At the same time, he could get a warning in advance and withdraw the Demon Ape in time when it could not hold on any longer.

Other than that, Bai Wushang also had the Eye of Perception.

In his pupils, he could see a lot of additional states of the Demon Ape. But almost none of them was abnormal. It was still within the range of control.

These were the reasons why Bai Wushang didn’t stop Ah Zhou.

“Boom!”

With a loud explosion, Ah Zhou stepped down hard on the last step.

Immediately, the clouds surged like dragons. A rainbow was shimmering in the sky.
