Supreme power! That was a terrifying Great Power on the level of defending a nation, who could flatten mountain ranges like the Demon Snake Forest with a flick of the wrist.
But Nangong Qitao felt really confused. Wasn't his teacher supposed to be holed up year-round at the top-tier academy, Kunpeng Academy, in Devil City? How'd she have time to visit a backwater like Wilderness Base City?
As the City Lord, Nangong Qitao handled all the formalities perfectly and started entertaining this powerful female teacher.
The usually imposing Military Pavilion Master stuck around with a big smile the whole time, barely saying a word, and it was the same with the Eight Great Grandmasters.
The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl kept her Beast-Eared Girl form, pointed at Xiao Ye, and said to Nangong Qitao,
"Where does this kid live? Get my room sorted, I want to stay next door to him until the Gaokao is over!"
The Supreme Bloodline hadn't been snatched away yet. She had to take him under her wing!
Xiao Ye felt like her stare was seriously weird.
Suddenly, a long-legged girl threw herself into Xiao Ye's arms, tears in her eyes, and said, "I finally found you! I thought something had happened to you."
It was Cheng Bingxi, who had just been forced out of her Summoned Beast Form.
"It's okay!" Xiao Ye patted her back, comforting her.
The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl saw that scene and her eyes went wide. She slapped the table and yelled, "Cut it out! You've already got a Contractor, and now you're cuddling some pretty chick!"
And the one in his arms was a literal jaw-dropping beauty, super young and gorgeous!
The City Lord, Pavilion Master, and the Four Great Grandmasters all jumped at the out-of-nowhere table slap—a pissed-off Supreme could leave corpses all over the place.
Nangong Qitao quickly explained, "Please, teacher, don't be mad, this is Cheng Bingxi, Xiao Ye's very first Summoned Beast Contractor!"
Nangong Siyao's mom, Zhang Jiarou, chimed in, "Cheng Bingxi, an Awakener with an SSS-level Nine-tailed Celestial Fox template!"
The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl froze, her pretty face full of disbelief, and said,
"This Xiao Ye kid contracted with two girls? And they're both SSS-level Summoned Beast templates?"
Nangong Qitao and Zhang Jiarou nodded, "That's right!"
The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl shot up from her seat, totally shocked, and walked right over to Xiao Ye. She pinched his handsome cheeks left and right, patted his left shoulder, then his right.
She couldn't stop clicking her tongue, as if she'd just discovered a new species of human.
"Your skin feels great, your shoulders are broad, bones super sturdy—being able to contract with two templates, that's insane, just insane!"
Xiao Ye saw the Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl reaching her hands even lower and quickly slapped her soft white hand away, saying, "Ancestor! We're in public, cut it out, that really tickles!"
The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl smiled seductively, instantly radiating a world of charm.
*This was a woman who was ripe and oozed sex appeal!*
"So you mean, it's okay to touch you in private?" she leaned in, whispering, and even blew a breath in Xiao Ye's ear.
"And quit calling me Ancestor; am I really that old? Call me Fairy, or just call me Sister Yun Bing!"
*Xiao Ye was dumbfounded. Seriously? You're over a thousand years old and you want me to call you Fairy? Do you have any shame?*
*But this Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl really was a stunning beauty, on par with Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi. The difference was, while those two still had a trace of girlish innocence, the Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl was all ripe peach—full of seduction and sexiness!*
"Sister Yun Bing!" Xiao Ye beamed and tugged Cheng Bingxi along to join in, "Sister Yun Bing!"
"Heehee!" The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl's beautiful eyes glistened with sly excitement. *Now that they called me Sister Yun Bing, they're all mine!*
"Nangong, set me up in their villa. I'm going to personally mentor them until the Gaokao is over!"
"No problem!" Nangong Qitao was ecstatic. Having the Kunpeng Supreme as a personal mentor? That was like, once in a million years.
Among the Four Great Summoning Beast Grandmasters, the bald, training maniac instructor leaned in and muttered to the City Lord, "City Lord, they've been sleeping in the same bedroom, living in the Youth Training Camp's couples' dorm, there's no other room!"
Nangong Qitao said gravely, "Then make sure to arrange a villa for Yao Yao and the others immediately!"
Ten minutes later, Xiao Ye and the other two found themselves forced into a little villa right next to the City Lord's Mansion.
Staring at the gigantic three-meter-by-three-meter bed, Cheng Bingxi was nearly in shock.
*Xiao Ye, on the other hand, was loving it—this bed was big enough for four people, easy!*
The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl took the room next door. Right now, it was as if her entire worldview had just been blown to pieces, and she muttered to herself,
"Across all the Base Cities this year, fewer than ten people have awakened SSS-level Summoned Beast templates. Now Wilderness Base City has two, no, three, including that SSS-level Beastmaster."
"If one Beastmaster can contract with two templates, does that mean he could take a third?"
"Even in Super Base Cities like Devil City and Imperial Capital, I'm not sure anyone's ever heard of this before!"
The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl spread out her spiritual sense—she wanted to secretly check what was so special about Xiao Ye.
When her sense drifted into the next room, she saw the three of them crystal clear. But whatever they were doing in there, it suddenly made her blush and her heart race.
"Ugh! Am I even allowed to watch this?"
Next door.
Nangong Siyao was lying on top of Xiao Ye, eyes full of anticipation, and said, "Xiao Ye!"
"The two of us Summoned Beasts have already reached the ninth realm, wiped out the Demon Snake Forest, and took down nine Grandmaster-level Demon Snakes."
"Do you have any way to solve the template problem?"
Xiao Ye nodded, "Yeah! From now on, your template won't limit us getting close anymore!"
[Xuanyuan Gem: Law-level Exotic Treasure, able to calm chaotic rules and suppress overlimit or unstable energies]
*Just whip it out at the right time, and with that thing, the overlimit template energy will be smoothed out!*
"Oh yeah! That's awesome!" Nangong Siyao was thrilled and jumped up sky-high.
The Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl next door, still eavesdropping, frowned!
*Solving template trouble? What kind of problem? Xiao Ye can actually solve an awakening template issue at the law level?*
*Please. That's just him tricking innocent girls who've never seen the world.*
Suddenly, the noise next door made her expression turn dark!
The more she listened, the more pissed she got—almost to the point of grinding her teeth!
Xiao Ye turned to Nangong Siyao and asked, "Why is that Ancestor a thousand-year-old spinster? Is she a total man-hater or what?"
Nangong Siyao paused thinking, then answered with a weird look,
"Uh, I don't really know either!"
"As far as I remember, everyone calls her Thousand-Year Spinster in private—like, the ultimate virgin!"
"Oh! I remember now!"
"Her template supposedly has a huge problem. Anyone who contracts with her explodes on the spot and dies instantly. Rumor is, whoever signs a contract with her dies, so all the guys stay far away!"
*Xiao Ye's lips twitched. That bad? Whoever contracts with her just explodes and dies?*
Wait a sec!
*That sounded disturbingly familiar somehow.*
*Oh yeah, exploding and dying!*
*Nangong Siyao, because of her overlimit template, would blow up with her partner if they crossed the line.*
*But Sister Yun Bing—anybody who contracts with her just drops dead right there?*
*That thought sent a cold shiver down Xiao Ye's spine!*
*That was just freaking terrifying!*
