The ant and bee tides finally came to an end.
This time, East Sea City emerged utterly victorious.
The Queen Bee was beheaded.
The Ant Queen was captured.
The leaderless ant and bee tides were crushed by the East Sea City’s army, resulting in their death or dispersion into the wilderness.
The few powerful figures secretly orchestrating everything, the “Nightmare Hall,” failed to pull off their schemes, as East Sea City turned the tables on them and inflicted heavy losses, including three Grade 7 Grandmaster-level enemies!
However, East Sea City’s top experts also suffered countless injuries.
Hospitals were filled with patients.
Next to the Beast Trainer Association, the Guardian Beast Hospital was also packed with injured Guardian Beasts.
Chen Fan didn’t stay in the hospital; instead, he went straight back to his home at the Beast Trainer Association.
His injuries were lighter than Ye Hao’s, and after taking the Mu Huan Pill given to him by Yun Canghai, he would completely recover in just over a week.
Upon returning to the Beast Trainer Association, Chen Fan gave Teacher Zhang Hai a detailed account of rescuing Zhen Qing and Ye Hao.
He also handed over the smart wristwatch he had taken from the black-robed man to Zhang Hai.
After instructing Chen Fan to focus on his recovery, Zhang Hai took the smart wristwatch to the City Lord’s Mansion.
Chen Fan then had someone from the Beast Trainer Association make a special trip to Ten Thousand Beast Mountain, found the cave where the Heavenly Fire Ant corpses were hidden, and transported all the ant corpses back, putting them in the Beast Trainer Association’s freezer for storage.
The City Lord’s Mansion suppressed the news about killing the black-robed man and saving Zhen Qing.
Chen Fan did not become a hero.
The hero was Tang Country’s youngest master, Yun Canghai.
So the whole incident became… Zhen Qing and Ye Hao were being hunted down, and Yun Canghai arrived just in the nick of time to slay the enemy with a single sword.
Afterward, Yun Canghai entrusted Chen Fan to bring Zhen Qing and Ye Hao back to East Sea City.
Chen Fan thought this arrangement was excellent.
Yun Canghai had already dealt with the Nightmare Hall before and did not know how many of its powerful members he had killed; whether he killed one more or less did not matter at all.
By doing this, the City Lord’s Mansion was actually protecting him.
Over the past few days, Chen Fan had used the excuse of recuperating at home to treat Elder Ape and the others’ injuries while studying the books Teacher Zhang Hai had given him, enjoying a leisurely lifestyle.
Only one thing bothered him…
Bai Ruge hadn’t managed to get the “Spirit Dragon Dew.”
Due to the ant tide, all the major hospitals in East Sea City were overwhelmed, and many injured Guardian Beastmasters and Star Martial Artists had nowhere to rest.
Li Fengxing and his Cold Pond Golden Horned Jiaolong, who had been staying in the hospital since they were injured by Chu Xuan, were both kicked out. Bai Ruge was furious, so she went to Li’s house, called Li Fengxing out in front ot tne tamily, and beat mm up.
Finally, she forced Li Fengxing to have the Cold Pond Golden Horned Jiaolong go back into hibernation and prepare the Spirit Dragon Dew for her.
Li Fengxing had just been mocking Ye Hao for being crippled the moment before, and the next moment he himself ended up crippled, almost banging his head against the ground in anger.
After learning about all this from Bai Ruge, Chen Fan couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.
Seven days later…
As Chen Fan and Elder Ape’s injuries had mostly healed…
Homeroom teacher Li Sheng brought the entire class to Chen Fan’s training ground.
Seeing this large group of uninvited guests, Chen Fan, who had been sitting at the stone table reading, was dumbstruck.
An hour ago, Li Sheng had asked about his injuries through WeChat.
He had said they were almost healed.
Unexpectedly, an hour later, Li Sheng brought the whole class to the Beast Trainer Association with great fanfare!
The homeroom teacher’s train of thought was so peculiar that even Chen Fan couldn’t guess what he would say or do.
At this moment, the students were all boiling…
“Holy crap, this tycoon lives alone in such a huge mansion and has such a large forest for a training ground!”
“Look over there at the training ground, there is a large group of Guardian Beasts… Why does he have so many Guardian Beasts?”
“This is so unfair. I just successfully contracted my first Guardian Beast yesterday, and after being happy for one night, Teacher Li brings me here to be disheartened. I don’t want to live anymore…”
“Wait a minute, all of you, look… Chu Xuan’s Desert Wind Falcon, Qingqing’s Cold Ice White Python, Ru Gel s Black Iron Dragon Turtle, and Ye Hao’s Morning
Glory, why are they all here?”
“Look in the distance, there’s a bird with golden feathers! Could that be the legendary Golden Winged Roc?!!
“Can you please be less ignorant? That’s a Golden Gyrfalcon, a level 16… Wait! Why is War God Pioneer Group Vice Leader Zhen Qing’s Guardian Beast also here?”
The students chattered excitedly.
Li Sheng waved his hand: “All of you, shut up! You’re all making such a ruckus.
What’s the matter?”
He glared at Chen Fan and then sat down on the stool next to the stone table.
The two stared each other down.
After a while, Li Sheng hesitantly said, “Such a huge incident happened, and the inter-academy ring matches were postponed for half a month, until the end of this month.’
Chen Fan: “Oh!”
Li Sheng: “Although the ring matches were postponed, our War God Academy will have a trial in East Sea City’s 1st Secret Realm starting tomorrow.” He didn’t ask about Chen Fan’s mansion.
Nor did he ask about the large group of Guardian Beasts or the Golden Gyrfalcon here.
“Trial?”
Chen Fan was slightly taken aback: “In the Secret Realm?”
Even the inter-academy ring matches were postponed due to the ant tide, yet War God Academy surprisingly chose to carry out a trial in the Secret Realm at this time?
Li Sheng nodded and said, “The so-called secret realms are actually areas that have been explored and pioneered.”
“Secret realms are generally named after the main city, like here near our East Sea City, where there are a total of seven fissures. Over the years, East Sea City has explored five of these fissures.”
“So these fissures are named: East Sea 1st Secret Realm, East Sea 2nd Secret Realm, East Sea 3rd Secret Realm…”
“Fissures that have not been explored are collectively called ‘Restricted Areas’.”
“And the first, second, and third in the secret realms actually indicate the order in which the realms were explored and their safety levels.”
“East Sea 1st Secret Realm is the first secret realm that East Sea City explored and developed many years ago.”
“It is also the safest one among the five secret realms.”
“East Sea City has explored five-sixths of this secret realm, with only the central area remaining unexplored.”
“And the 5th Secret Realm has just begun to be explored. We know nothing about the particular species, what kind of monsters, or what the situation is in the depths of the secret realm. It is the most complex and dangerous one among the five secret realms.”
Chen Fan didn’t speak.
He had already looked up some information about secret realms and restricted areas on the internet before.
Li Sheng continued, “So, East Sea 1st Secret Realm can be considered as the back garden of our East Sea City.”
“Yesterday morning, a team from East Sea City drove more than five thousand Heavenly Fire Ants into the 1st Secret Realm..
A female classmate suddenly widened her eyes and exclaimed, “Teacher, aren’t the fissures in the sky? How could they drive the Heavenly Fire Ants up there?” Many “local” students laughed.
Li Sheng also smiled, “Not all fissures are in the sky, some are up there, while others may be on the ground.”
“Of course, most of the fissures that have appeared so far are indeed in the sky, at various heights.”
“The entrance to the 1st Secret Realm is also up in the sky.”
“But to make it easier to explore and defend, our strongmen will use their divine powers to drag mountains beneath the secret realms, and then they build steps on the mountains that lead directly to the entrance of the secret realms.”
“Tsk!” Many students in the field hissed in awe.
Moving mountains…
Before he crossed over, such things only existed in myths and legends.
Unbelievable…
Li Sheng continued, “The inside of the 1st Secret Realm is an icy snowy land.” “Heavenly Fire Ants would have difficulty surviving in such an environment.”
“It’s because there was a strongman from the War God Pioneer Group in the team yesterday that our War God Academy was able to take advantage of this opportunity.”
“After being frozen in the 1st Secret Realm for two days, the threat of the Heavenly Fire Ants will be greatly reduced.”
“That’s why the War God Academy dares to let you rookies go to the 1st Secret Realm to undergo trials.”
Many students around laughed, rubbing their hands and eager to try.
Li Sheng continued, “Chen Fan, you, and Chu Xuan will also participate in the trials.”
“But the other students will only hunt Heavenly Fire Ants in the periphery of the 1st Secret Realm.”
“Your target is not the Heavenly Fire Ants, but the Snow Demons in the 1st Secret Realm.”
Chen Fan nodded slightly.
Actually, he had no idea what the Snow Demons were.
Suddenly, Chen Fan looked up and scanned the crowd, asking curiously, “Where’s Chu Xuan?”
“I’m here.” Chu Xuan’s voice sounded behind Chen Fan.
” ” Chen Fan’s body stiffened as he turned around.
Damn! When a large group of people just rushed in, there was clearly no red cape in sight!
How could he have missed a red cape?
Chen Fan’s face darkened, “Why do you always appear and disappear out of nowhere?”
Chu Xuan said indifferently, “I’m not appearing and disappearing. Qing Qing and Teacher Li entered before, and I wandered around outside before coming in. You just didn’t notice.”
Chen Fan:
At this time, Chu Xuan’s Desert Wind Falcon and Fang Qingqing’s Cold Ice White Python both came over.
Both guardian beasts approached their respective masters and nuzzled them affectionately with their heads.
Chen Fan extended his hand toward Chu Xuan, “Give me money.”
Chu Xuan was stunned, “For what?”
Chen Fan: “Your Desert Wind Falcon has been here for seven days, eating and drinking on me… The most annoying thing is that it only eats Heavenly Fire Ants, not even giving a damn about those below level 4!”
“I struggled to get a few level 4 and 5 Heavenly Fire Ants, and now they’ve all been almost eaten by it!”
The surrounding group of freshmen had gloomy faces… The Desert Wind Falcon eats level 4 and 5 Heavenly Fire Ants every day while they haven’t even tasted level 2 Heavenly Fire Ants.
Chu Xuan turned away, “I don’t have money.”
Chen Fan was furious.
He had made money from Fang Qingqing, Ye Hao, and Zhen Qing from the War God Pioneer Group.
But when it came to Chu Xuan, he was brutally ripped off!
How could he bear this?
Li Sheng hurriedly pulled Chen Fan back, “The depths of the 1st Secret Realm are very dangerous. We must plan carefully for the long term.”
Chu Xuan and Fang Qingqing took the opportunity to take their guardian beasts aside.
Both of them squatted down and communicated with their beasts telepathically.
In a short while, their faces became slightly solemn. Then, both of them looked silently at Chen Fan….
