My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel - Chapter 64
64: Chapter 64: What?!
Entering the Secret Realm?!
64: Chapter 64: What?!
Entering the Secret Realm?!
Looking at Wang Teng, full of himself, Gu Xing couldn’t help but crack up.
If he couldn’t see the Guardian Beast’s Attributes for himself, he’d almost be fooled by him.
Dragon Race bloodline?
Gu Xing secretly shook his head.
If it were a pure-blooded Dragon, it’d be worth paying attention to, but this lizard that barely even counts…
Forget it!
But at this moment, Wang Teng was already fully lost in the flattery of the students around him:
“If I’m not mistaken, Wang Teng’s Guardian Beast is the Molten Dragon Lizard with Legendary Level Talent!”
“I heard the Wang Family practically used all their connections just to get this Guardian Beast!”
“With such a strong Guardian Beast, looks like Wang Teng is aiming to break the record in this Awakening Secret Realm and claim the Principal’s reward!”
Yet Gu Xing felt a bit surprised hearing all these discussions.
Record?
Reward?
As a freshman, there were still plenty of rules about the National Guardian Academy he didn’t quite understand.
“Brother Xing, look over there.” Qin Tian timely pointed at the entrance of the Secret Realm, “That record monument has all the best results from previous years engraved on it.”
Gu Xing looked in the direction Qin Tian was pointing, and saw a primitive stone stele with gilded characters carved on it:
[First Place: Qin Chuxue, 9 hours 15 minutes]
[Second Place: Ying Chuan, 28 hours 17 minutes]
[Third Place: Wang Kai, 28 hours 25 minutes]
…
[Tenth Place: Zhang Jian, 30 hours 7 minutes]
Staring at the ranking list, Gu Xing frowned slightly.
The gap between first and second place…
Why’s it so huge?
The difference between third and tenth place was only two hours.
But between first and second…
It was a full 19 hours apart!
Gu Xing instinctively turned to look at Qin Tian.
“Brother Xing, this ranking records the time Guardian Beasts took to break through from Awakened Tier One to Tier Nine.”
“The one at the top used to be the genius student personally recruited by Principal Long, just like you, five years ago.”
Hearing ‘special recruitment’, Gu Xing suddenly remembered!
Long Zhenguo had only ever recruited two students specially.
One was him.
The other was this Qin Chuxue.
“Since Senior Sister Qin’s record was just too against the odds, the Academy already stated her result is just for show.”
“Principal Long once personally promised: anyone who can surpass Second Place can enter the National Treasure Vault and pick any treasure!”
As he spoke, Qin Tian glanced at Wang Teng, dropping his voice even lower:
“Wang Teng being able to have this Guardian Beast, it’s probably because the Wang Family set their eyes on something in the Treasure Vault of the National Academy-no wonder they invested so much.”
Hearing ‘National Treasure Vault’, Gu Xing’s pupils shrank.
He remembered clearly, the “Holy Marrow Spirit Liquid” Liu Li had needed for her last Evolution had come from there.
And as long as a record is broken, you can go in and pick one material…
Gu Xing thought about his two Guardian Beasts.
Right now, both of their Talent had already reached the Myth Level!
But…
Who doesn’t want their Guardian Beast to become even stronger?
If he could get into the National Treasure Vault and possibly find Evolution materials for both of them…
He had to get in!
Gu Xing immediately made up his mind.
If he missed this chance, who knows when he’d ever qualify to enter the National Treasure Vault again.
Besides…
His gaze unconsciously fell on the glowing name at the top of the list.
Qin Chuxue!
Just like him, she’d been personally recruited by Principal Long: a genius who had defined her era.
Gu Xing’s lips curled, as a long-lost urge to win suddenly blazed in his chest.
He really wanted to know, compared to this legendary senior…
Who’s stronger!
But Wang Teng, seeing Gu Xing completely ignore him, instantly burned with rage.
He was about to explode, when suddenly he sensed terror from the Molten Dragon Lizard through their Contract.
“What’s going on?”
He turned in surprise, only to see his Guardian Beast collapsed on all fours, scales trembling nonstop, without a trace of the Legendary Level Guardian Beast’s majesty left.
Could it be…
Wang Teng suddenly looked at Gu Xing.
Had that terrifying Angel appeared again?
But then he remembered, the Awakening Secret Realm strictly forbids Extraordinary Level Guardian Beasts!
No matter how strong that Angel is, she can’t decide the results of this Secret Realm!
This time, the top spot would definitely be his!
But seeing his own Dragon Lizard shivering, he ultimately decided to take the Guardian Beast and slink away with his tail between his legs.
Ying Bing glanced at Vera warily; her Spirit was strong.
She could sense the source of that aura just now was this cute little girl.
If she could make a Dragon Lizard with top Legendary Level Talent tremble with fear, that meant…
This Guardian Beast’s Level might be the same as Liu Li’s…
Also Myth Level?!
Gu Xing glanced sideways, his gaze landing on Vera, who was pretending to be innocent.
The one who’d given that Dragon Lizard a scare just now was her.
Seeing Gu Xing look her way, the little girl instantly stuck out her tongue.
“Master, I just couldn’t stand that guy showing off.
Sorry~”
Gu Xing couldn’t help but laugh, his slender fingers gently ruffling her golden hair.
This sort of thing, he’d never blame his own Guardian Beast for.
After all, she was just thinking of him!
“No problem!”
Seeing he wasn’t angry, Vera immediately took more liberties, spreading her arms and speaking with syrupy sweetness:
“Master, hug hug~”
That cute and spoiled look, just like a little girl begging for candy.
Gu Xing’s heart grew soft, and he instinctively pulled her into his arms.
Meanwhile.
Inside the Beast Taming Space, Liu Li who’d witnessed it all was stomping her feet in frustration:
“That little green tea minx!”
She glared fiercely at Vera, who was acting cute outside, her golden eyes almost shooting sparks.
Pretending to be sweet, tricking Master’s feelings!!
So annoying!!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, so her gaze landed on the trembling Tree of Life.
Just then-
“Time’s up!”
A teacher in green robes stood suspended in the air, with a wave of his sleeve, the Barrier at the Secret Realm entrance rippled like water.
Countless mysterious runes flickered in the Void, finally merging into a dazzling Light Gate.
“The Awakening Secret Realm is now open!
All students, enter in order!”
…
Inside the principal’s office, Long Zhenguo sat frowning over Gu Xing’s file.
Gu Xing’s family situation wasn’t good.
That meant the Academy was responsible for his second Guardian Beast.
“What should I assign him as his Guardian Beast…” Long Zhenguo stroked his beard, muttering.
His eyes swept back and forth over the list of the Academy’s remaining Legendary Level Guardian Beasts, but none were satisfactory.
The first one’s already Myth Level-the second must be top-notch Legendary, minimum!
Just as he was agonizing, the office door was suddenly flung open.
“Principal!
Big problem!”
Fu Yanjie rushed in, out of breath.
Long Zhenguo frowned in displeasure: “Director Fu, mind your manners!”
“Gu Xing… Gu Xing entered the Awakening Secret Realm!”
Hearing the news, Long Zhenguo was initially unfazed.
Entering a Secret Realm is no big deal, right?
But in the next moment, Long Zhenguo shot to his feet, his wooden chair sliding back half a meter.
“What?!
He entered the Secret Realm!”
Entering the Awakening Secret Realm meant…
It meant Gu Xing had already Contracted his second Guardian Beast!
But he had no idea about it!
If the second Guardian Beast’s Talent was too poor…
Long Zhenguo felt a chill run through his heart!
