Provocation

The 100x gravity force crashed down onto the testing ground. The four remaining examinees bore the immense pressure, yet for Gu Tian and Wu Shuang, it hardly seemed to affect them at all. Their bodies remained completely steady, as if they weren't feeling anything.

Meanwhile, Shen Ya experienced some difficulty, but it wasn't enough to cause her any real problems. She stood her ground with ease. However, Ye Feng was in a dire situation. His body began to tremble, and even his Moon Wolf, which stood beside him, started to sink slightly under the pressure.

Five minutes passed. Blood trickled from the corner of Ye Feng's lips. His consciousness began to fade. His mind went blank, and everything around him seemed distorted. The surrounding sounds started to blur until he could barely hear anything.

At that moment, Shen Ya made her move. She immediately activated her beast's special ability. A golden light surged from Heavenly Goddess, radiating a gentle power that spread throughout the area. It shone like the sun's divine glow, dispelling darkness while simultaneously restoring energy and vitality.

Gu Tian turned his gaze toward Shen Ya's beast.

Seeing Shen Ya's actions, Gu Tian nodded slightly. At the same time, his gaze shifted toward Ye Feng, who was now standing eerily still. His eyes then fell on Moon Wolf, which was trembling beside him. Even Shen Ya's beast, which was supposed to be in good condition, seemed to be struggling. The silver-furred wolf was drenched in sweat, its body barely holding on.

"Looks like you're reaching your limit… but—" Gu Tian thought to himself.

Suddenly, Ye Feng's aura exploded upward. His power, along with his Moon Wolf's, skyrocketed past Silver, astonishing the surrounding students and examiners alike.

At the same time, Wu Shuang seemed like he wanted to intervene, but Shen Ya stopped him. Gu Tian noticed the exchange between the two but chose not to act.

Boom!

Ye Feng's body shuddered violently. His consciousness returned, and his power had clearly grown stronger than before.

Time passed, and after 30 minutes, all four remaining examinees successfully endured the 100x gravity challenge, securing SSS+ scores.

A wave of murmurs spread across the testing ground.

"How is this possible? How did that guy make it this far?"

"This is insane..."

"But even so, Shen Ya is still stronger than Gu Tian!"

The atmosphere heated up as students began debating over who was the strongest. However, before their discussions could escalate further, a sudden wave of oppressive pressure surged toward Wu Shuang without warning.

Boom!!

Yet before it could reach him, several examiners intervened, stopping the attack. Then, a cold voice rang out.

"He Lianqi, please refrain from such disgraceful behavior."

He Lianqi stared at Wu Shuang with icy cold eyes before falling silent. However, even though she held her tongue, she did not forget the grudge she bore against this boy. It was something she had carved into her memory.

After the gravity test concluded, all students were transported out of the dimensional gate. Group C then made their way toward the second gate for the speed test.

But along the way, Ye Feng's voice suddenly rang out as he glared at Wu Shuang.

"During the test earlier, what exactly were you trying to do to me?"

Wu Shuang smirked before responding casually.

"What? You think too highly of yourself."

The very next moment, Moon Wolf lunged straight toward Wu Shuang!

Standing beside him, Gu Tian widened his eyes slightly, surprised by the sudden escalation.

"They're seriously fighting here? Must be nice to have a powerful backing. Do whatever you want, no need to think twice. If something goes wrong, there's always someone to clean up the mess. How enviable."

Before Moon Wolf could reach Wu Shuang, a dragon shot out from Gu Tian's body. A black, purple, and blue-scaled dragon materialized in mid-air before slamming into Moon Wolf with overwhelming force.

Boom!

Moon Wolf was sent flying backward.

Gu Tian turned to glance at the Chaos Black Dragon, intrigued. As he gazed at it, information immediately surfaced before his eyes.

[Assessment Compared to Other Silver-Level Beasts: SSS+]

Gu Tian rubbed his eyes slightly before looking back toward the battle.

The Chaos Black Dragon, which had just appeared, was mercilessly overpowering Moon Wolf, completely dominating it as if it were nothing more than a plaything.

Gu Tian stood still for a moment before reassessing Ye Feng in his mind. Initially, he had considered Ye Feng as someone who might be useful in the future, but now, he saw him as more of a liability than an asset. Gu Tian wasn't fond of people who let their emotions cloud their judgment.

Voices from the surrounding students began to rise.

"I don't really like Wu Shuang, but I dislike Ye Feng even more! Go get him, Brother Wu!"

Boom!

As the Chaos Black Dragon continued to brutalize Moon Wolf, a blinding light suddenly shone from above.

A wave of holy energy descended from the sky, crashing into the Chaos Black Dragon!

Boom! Boom!

The attacker was none other than Shen Ya's "Judgment Angel".

Gu Tian, witnessing the entire scene, simply shook his head slightly before turning to Wu Shuang.

"Wu Shuang, I'm gonna go grab something to eat."

Wu Shuang glanced over and grinned.

"Get something for me too. I'll catch up later."

Gu Tian nodded before casually walking away.

Some students stayed to watch the fight unfold, while others chose to head toward the second dimensional gate to proceed with the speed test.

Meanwhile, as Gu Tian was leisurely buying snacks…

Boom!

The sounds of explosions echoed intermittently.

The aura of a Diamond-tier Beast Tamer erupted, soon followed by the overwhelming presence of a King-tier expert descending from the sky.

But Gu Tian paid no attention to any of it.

Since there was nothing in it for him, he continued carrying dozens of grilled chicken skewers and hamburgers, making his way toward the second dimensional gate, completely unfazed
