After a break over the holiday, the number of beasts in the jungle had doubled.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten beasts surrounded Xiao Ye and his group of four.
Cat-eared Liu Ya leisurely swung her fluffy tail over her leather pants and asked, "Need my help?"
"No need!"
With a roar, the Three-toed Golden Dragon soared into the sky, its sleek body glinting brilliantly under the sunlight.
Cat-eared Liu Ya swiftly perched on a towering tree, her graceful body leaning against a thick branch. She pulled out a pack of sunflower seeds and watched with interest.
She wanted to see how much real strength the top scorer of the college entrance exam possessed. Previously, she had only heard about it from Vice-Dean Yunbing, but witnessing it firsthand was far more intriguing.
Hovering 20 meters above the ground, the dragon's golden eyes observed the beasts below.
In reality, it was Xiao Ye who was observing.
Information on black wolves, eagles, magic snakes, and pythons appeared in Xiao Ye's vision.
**[Template Adjuster Scanning]**
**[Grandmaster-level One-star Magic Snake] [Can extract one Rule Fragment Crystal]**
**[Seventh-level Black Wolf] [Cannot extract]**
**[Third-level Eagle] [Cannot extract]**
**[Grandmaster-level Three-star Eagle] [Can extract one Rule Fragment Crystal]**
**[Grandmaster-level Four-star Ice Python] [Can extract one Rule Fragment Crystal]**
**[Fourth-level Black Wolf] [Cannot extract]**
**[In a critical state, easier to extract successfully]**
Xiao Ye identified which beasts could yield rule fragment crystals and which couldn't.
"Roar!!"
A mystical mental wave spread from the Three-toed Golden Dragon.
Instantly, it enveloped the entire jungle.
In that moment, every water element in the jungle began to resonate, responding to the dragon's control.
Conceptual talent skill:
**[Water Element Control: As the name implies, you have absolute control over water elements, making you the king of water]**
A Grandmaster-level eagle swooped in, its sharp claws raised, intending to grab the dragon's tail.
"Freeze!" the Three-toed Golden Dragon commanded.
The eagle began to freeze from the outside in, its blood, muscles, and bones quickly encased in ice. In the blink of an eye, it was frozen solid from the outside to the core.
A massive block of ice fell from the sky, crashing onto a First-level Black Wolf below, killing it.
The Grandmaster-level Three-star Eagle was now in a critical state.
"Extract!" A vast, deep power, like the depths of the universe, descended upon the eagle and the black wolf.
Xiao Ye attempted to extract the rule fragment crystal from the eagle beast.
To his surprise, the eagle let out a mournful cry, its body turning to ruin, suffused with death, before exploding into a bloody mist, leaving a nauseating stench.
**[Extraction Successful!]**
The eagle fared better, but the First-level Black Wolf was reduced to nothing, not even leaving a trace.
**[Extraction Failed!]**
**[Note: Beasts below the Grandmaster level lack the body strength to support the materialization of Rule Fragment Crystals]**
"Is that so?" Xiao Ye understood.
It turned out that extracting materialized rule fragment crystals was also related to the beast's body strength, which explained why higher-level beasts could yield more crystals.
Xiao Ye checked his system space.
Indeed! A rule fragment crystal appeared there, its surface radiating profound rule power.
**[Creation-type Rule Fragment Crystal]**
Xiao Ye was delighted; in just a short time, he had obtained a Creation-type Rule Fragment Crystal! Diamond Supreme's Cheng Ge had said it would take at least a hundred years.
"Roar!!"
The Three-toed Golden Dragon hovering in the air let out a joyful dragon roar, its golden eyes excitedly fixed on the Grandmaster-level beasts below.
"One Grandmaster-level One-star, one Grandmaster-level Six-star, one Grandmaster-level Two-star, and one Grandmaster-level Four-star!"
To Xiao Ye, these were treasures!
"This!" Assistant Liu Ya, lying on a nearby branch, was wide-eyed with surprise, sunflower seed shells falling into her chest unnoticed.
"Instant kill of a Three-star Grandmaster! Is this really a freshman?"
"The dragon's aura... gasp! It's actually a Seven-star Grandmaster level!"
"Oh my gosh, even the top juniors at the third-year level barely reach the Seven-star Grandmaster level!"
Liu Ya compared Xiao Ye to her past students over the last two hundred years, finding none could match him.
Even the current top ten Supremes of Magic City couldn't compare to Xiao Ye!
The extraordinarily talented Xiao Ye made Liu Ya's long-dormant heart race, her face slightly flushed as she thought:
This mischievous Xiao Ye is destined to reach beyond the Supreme in the future. Should I secure him early?
Young men like Xiao Ye, full of vigor, are most easily seduced by gentle allure!
Liu Ya shook her head vigorously, slapping herself, scolding, "Impossible! He's my student. Liu Ya, have you been a widow too long, over a hundred years without a man, and now you're thinking about one?"
Xiao Ye naturally didn't know that Assistant Liu Ya, watching him, was sometimes excited, sometimes blushing, sometimes slapping herself.
Otherwise, he might think she was losing her mind.
"Ten thousand-degree heat!"
A mental wave spread from the Three-toed Golden Dragon, causing the water elements in the small jungle to resonate.
With several booms, the jungle was enveloped in lava, like a high-temperature steamer at the sun's core.
All the beasts below were trapped in the lava, struggling madly, with those below the Grandmaster level perishing miserably.
The Grandmaster-level beasts escaped the lava, leaping onto branches.
The Four-star Grandmaster Ice Python glanced mockingly, the One-star Grandmaster Magic Snake hissed disdainfully, the Two-star Grandmaster Black Wolf howled proudly, and the Six-star Grandmaster Gopher emerged from the soil, wagging its tail arrogantly.
Arrogant, too arrogant! They didn't take the Three-toed Golden Dragon's attack seriously!
"Aren't these beasts happy a bit too early?" said the distant Two-tailed Sacred White Fox.
But Xiao Ye merely sneered.
The next second.
With a boom, the One-star Grandmaster Magic Snake and Two-star Grandmaster Black Wolf were engulfed in flames, their body temperatures quickly rising to several thousand degrees.
The Four-star Grandmaster Ice Python didn't fare much better, its body turning red-hot like a cooked snake, rolling on the branches.
As for the Six-star Grandmaster Gopher, it became a charred piece of roast meat, steam rising from its tail, fully cooked.
Water Element Control, terrifying indeed!
Soon, all four Grandmaster-level beasts were in a critical state.
"That should do it." Xiao Ye activated the template adjuster's third function: Extract Rule Fragment Crystals!
**[One-star Grandmaster Magic Snake: Extraction of one Rule Fragment Crystal Successful!]**
**[Two-star Grandmaster Black Wolf: Extraction Successful]**
**[Four-star Grandmaster Python: Extraction Successful]**
**[Six-star Grandmaster Gopher: Extraction Successful]**
In the system space, there were now four crystals: **[Creation-type] [Fire-type] [Creation-type] [Ice-type]**
