"You guessed right!"
In less than half a day, Da Huang returned to the Beast God Academy, and the first words it spoke left the dean stunned.
Guessed right?
What did that mean?
Could it be that the Eight Great Beast Taming Academies had truly betrayed the Beast God?
How dare they? How could they?
"What did you find?" Chen Chang'an asked.
"I discovered many outsiders sneaking into the Beast God Mountains in groups."
"And... there are a lot of them, with formidable strength."
"About five hundred at the Sovereign Realm, over a hundred at the Immortal Realm, and more than a dozen at the Emperor Realm."
"They’re probably really targeting the Beast God."
So many?
Rumors said the Beast God was a tenth-tier beast. It seemed the intruders were truly worried the rumors might be true—worried that bringing too few would leave them no match for the Beast God.
"You... are you certain so many powerful figures have invaded the Beast God Mountains?" the dean asked, his voice trembling with emotion.
"Absolutely. If anything, the number is higher, not lower."
"Are you sure the Beast God is really in the Beast God Mountains?"
"Why can’t I sense its presence at all? Logically, such a powerful existence shouldn’t be completely undetectable."
"Unless it’s not here... or its strength has surpassed even my perception." Da Huang’s expression turned unusually solemn.
The dean didn’t answer Da Huang’s question. Instead, he fell into deep, troubled thought.
The true purpose of the Beast God Academy wasn’t just to train beast tamers—it was also to guard the Beast God Mountains.
To many, beasts weren’t just a powerful species but also a resource for cultivation.
The beast cores within them, even their flesh and bones, could be exploited by humans.
The Beast God Mountains had become a sanctuary only because of the beast tamers and the Beast God’s presence.
No one could slaughter beasts freely under their watch.
In Beast God Province, humans and beasts coexisted in harmony—a paradise of mutual support and companionship.
"Utterly despicable!"
"The Eight Great Beast Taming Academies dare to collude with outsiders and betray the Beast God!"
"Chen Chang'an, I thank you for bringing us this news."
"I have urgent matters to attend to now. Once we deal with these traitors, I’ll seek you out again."
"Little Qiqi."
"Yes, Grandfather."
At the dean’s command, Little Qiqi’s expression turned serious.
Under the stunned gazes of Chen Chang'an and Da Huang, Little Qiqi revealed her true form—
A peak ninth-tier beast, the Heaven-Devouring Rabbit!
"Impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
"How... how can she take human form? And without a trace of beastly aura?"
"This..."
Da Huang was completely baffled, and even Chen Chang'an was taken aback.
They had guessed the dean’s identity, and they’d suspected Little Qiqi too.
But she seemed too ordinary—adorable, yes, but devoid of any beastly energy or even the slightest fluctuation of power.
Who could’ve imagined this girl was actually a peak ninth-tier beast, the Heaven-Devouring Rabbit?
Little Qiqi’s true form wasn’t large, only about ten times the size of an ordinary rabbit.
But her aura was terrifying—after all, she stood at the pinnacle of beasts, a peak ninth-tier existence.
"Big Brother, Da Huang, I’m going with Grandfather to fight the bad guys now," Little Qiqi said with a smile.
"Wait—tell me, how can you take human form?"
"How did you do it?" Da Huang pressed urgently.
"It’s a blessing from the Beast God."
A blessing from the Beast God?
Hearing this, Da Huang grew even more excited. It had to meet the Beast God—it had to!
All for human form, all for the brothels!
Wait, no—wrong thought! It was all for breaking through to the tenth tier, definitely not for brothels! Yes, it stood firmly against brothels!
"All beast tamers of the Beast God Academy, hear my command!"
"The Eight Great Beast Taming Academies have colluded with outsiders, invaded the Beast God Mountains, and betrayed the Beast God!"
"Eliminate the Eight Great Academies! Guard the Beast God Mountains! Guard the Beast God!"
The dean’s voice echoed throughout the Beast God Academy and the entire Beast God City.
In an instant, the entire city erupted in fury.
"What?!"
"They invaded the Beast God Mountains and betrayed the Beast God? The Eight Great Academies have gone too far!"
"Damn it! Defend the Beast God Mountains! Defend the Beast God!"
"That’s right! We can’t let anyone disrespect the Beast God!"
"Those damned outsiders—I knew they were up to no good!"
"Charge!"
"To the Beast God Mountains!"
"Don’t act rashly! Without the Beast God’s permission, you can’t go!"
In Beast God Province, the Beast God was revered as a deity. To offend the Beast God was to offend all its people.
Meanwhile, the members of the Eight Great Academies were in panic.
The eight deans never expected the Beast God Academy’s dean to uncover their plot so quickly.
"Dean, is this true?"
"Did you really conspire with outsiders to defy the Beast God?"
"You said coming here to challenge the Beast God Academy was to protect the Beast God—to protect Beast God Province! Why would you do this?"
"You’ve betrayed your own faith?"
Now, even the beast tamers of the eight academies turned on their leaders.
"Silence!"
"Without our guidance, would you even be beast tamers?"
"Beast God this, Beast God that!"
"How many years has the Beast God been gone?"
"Which of you has ever seen it?"
"Do you truly wish to be trapped in these mountains forever? Bound by the Beast God Mountains for generations?"
"If you won’t think for yourselves, at least think for your descendants!"
The crowd hesitated briefly but remained unmoved.
"We became beast tamers because of the Beast God—because of the Beast God Mountains!"
"Without the Beast God, Beast God Province wouldn’t exist. None of us would’ve even been born—how could we talk about the future?"
"You’re just making excuses for your treachery!"
"We will never be your accomplices!"
"Everyone, let’s capture the eight deans and hand them over to the Beast God Academy’s dean!"
"Attack!"
"No need. I’ll handle this myself!"
Before the beast tamers could swarm the traitors, the dean of the Beast God Academy arrived with Little Qiqi, soaring through the sky.
At the sight of him, the eight deans paled.
Dammit! They were only supposed to stall the Beast God Academy—how had they been exposed before even starting?
What now? Surrender? Beg for mercy?
Or flee?
While they hesitated, the Beast God Academy’s dean showed no mercy.
"Little Qiqi!"
"Yes, Grandfather!"
As a peak ninth-tier Heaven-Devouring Rabbit, Little Qiqi moved like lightning.
In a flash, she reappeared beside the dean—
And the eight deans of the Beast God Taming Academies lay dead.
The gap in power was absolute.
"You thought you could challenge the Beast God Academy?"
"Just because I keep a low profile doesn't mean I lack strength!"
