That scar had nearly become an insurmountable barrier in Cheng Bingxi's heart, especially after forming a contract with Xiao Ye, she became extremely conscious of it.
Xiao Ye observed all of this and bore it in mind.
After a night of turmoil.
At six o'clock the next morning, Cheng Bingxi woke Xiao Ye up, she had already reverted to her human form.
"Xiao Ye, wake up quickly, let's cultivate. Don't forget we still have a competition with the bald man today!"
Xiao Ye was awakened by this distinctive wake-up call.
Then, the two took out ten first rank Demon Beast Crystal Cores awarded by the principal.
The two exchanged glances and promptly activated the Contractual Power, summoning the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox!
In the small boudoir, an unmatched aura surged, and a magical blend of colors descended, creating the image of a Holy! Noble! Mysterious! white fox as if pulled from a two-dimensional world into reality, vividly standing on the ground.
The bodies of Xiao Ye and Cheng Bingxi disappeared, their consciousnesses existing together within the One-Tail form of the Holy White Fox.
Reflected in the mirror were the beautiful, intelligent eyes of the White Fox, deep as the starry sky.
Two little blood-sucking mosquitoes upon seeing it, excitedly thought of coming over to take a bite.
[Divine Subversion: Forcefully instills a mental imprint, making the enemy change its attack target, a single target skill]
Just as the light flickered in the eyes of the One-Tail form White Fox,
One of the mosquitoes suddenly halted its movement, then raised its sharp mouth and stabbed towards the other mosquito, which, unprepared, got hit squarely.
The blood-sucking mosquito, as if injected with steroids, activated ten times its attack speed and sucked the other mosquito dry, then with a 'bang!', its belly burst.
"I've been wanting to deal with these two mosquitoes, but I was too busy yesterday, and today I finally got rid of them!"
Within the consciousness of the One-Tail form White Fox, Xiao Ye laughed heartily.
Cheng Bingxi's face blushed, urging, "Stop playing around, hurry up and absorb the Crystal Cores to cultivate."
Then, under Xiao Ye's control, the Holy White Fox directly tossed a Crystal Core into its mouth, crunching and swallowing it.
Both had learned an improved Demon Beast cultivation method at the school, but before they even started the cultivation method, they felt a surge of pure energy entering their bodies from their stomachs, instantly disappearing.
With a burst, they felt their strength increase.
[Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox One-Tail form White Fox: First Rank]
SSS tier template is terrifying indeed, looking at the system panel only visible to oneself, Xiao Ye thought.
Then, the remaining nine first rank Demon Beast Crystal Cores were crunched and swallowed up like eating crispy chips, a texture that Cheng Bingxi particularly enjoyed.
Now, taking advantage of a slight increase in energy, they operated the cultivation method, and after a few minutes, they stopped cultivating and exited the Summoned Beast Form.
[Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox One-Tail form White Fox: First Rank Mid-Phase]
Third High School, Principal's office villa, backyard.
Yesterday all ten Awakening Class students had assembled, including Xiao Ye and Cheng Bingxi.
The Principal, with a hint of boastfulness, started introducing the decorations in the backyard.
On the few hundred square meters of the backyard's walls, flamboyantly magnificent flowers blossomed, and on the main veins, even more, were fruits that were crystal clear.
The courtyard emitted waves of fragrance, causing the students to feel refreshed just by inhaling; those fruits even had a captivating magic-like pull, irresistibly drawing people closer.
The principal, with eyes full of affection, carefully tended to the leaves on the main stem, ensuring the fruit absorbed enough sunlight.
"Rare Spirit Plant: Molo Fruit! Both beautiful and dangerously magical." Bald youth Jing Ran exclaimed in awe, "This thing needs the Heart Blood of a Grandmaster-level Demon Beast to take root, sprout, and grow!"
"Exactly!" The principal, very pleased with the grown Molo Fruit, explained:
"Two years ago, when a Demon Beast attacked Third High School, it took colossal effort for me to kill a Grandmaster-level Demon Beast. Since then, my foundation was damaged, and my Realm regressed. This Molo Fruit, cultivated with that Grandmaster-level Demon Beast's Heart Blood, has grown to flower and fruit, which means a lot to me."
Staying in the fragrant-filled courtyard, every Contractor became sentimental and embraced each other.
Xiao Ye, holding Cheng Bingxi who was wearing a half-fox mask, said, "If we get the chance, let's plant one too and cultivate it together."
Cheng Bingxi's eyes filled with longing, she continuously nodded: "Yes, let's do it!"
The principal, watching this scene, felt very satisfied, seeing that all the Contractors got along well. However, when his gaze fell on the bald youth, he couldn't help but frown!
He saw the bald youth trying to grab Xie Mengxuan's hand, which she swiftly avoided, keeping at least a meter away.
The bald youth gave an awkward smile, a bitter expression on his face, doubting his own looks for the first time.
Could it be that his reflective bald head wasn't handsome? He thought his non-mainstream look was explosively cool.
In the high-level Academy, he was a head-turner every day on campus!
The campus goddesses had always said his hairstyle was quite unique and interesting!
Unable to figure it out, Jing Ran shifted his focus, proudly challenging Xiao Ye, "According to our agreement, today is the day we compete."
"A true man can bend or stretch. If you surrender voluntarily, I'll acknowledge you as a man! Don't lose too badly, never to recover."
"Let's compete without the fuss, what does your talk prove?" Xiao Ye looked disdainful, "Principal, you be the judge, let's settle this now."
"Hmph!" Xie Mengxuan scoffed, "Truly unappreciative."
The principal nodded and said, "Alright, this courtyard is several hundred square meters, plenty of space for you to show off. Let's have the match here."
"Jing Ran, you've already stepped into the Second Rank, whereas Xiao Ye might barely meet the First Rank threshold. Keep it light, no injuries."
Bald youth Jing Ran and Xie Mengxuan summoned their Contractual Power, calling forth the S-tier template Wolf King.
As an eerie howl resounded, a frenzied force emerged around them, Jing Ran and Xie Mengxuan vanished, and a black-furred Wolf King, glistening with cold light, appeared on the ground.
The two-meter-tall Wolf King, a symbol of hunting and power, stood on all fours, exuding a berserk aura that stirred the surrounding air.
Xiao Ye and Cheng Bingxi also invoked their Contractual Power, summoning an SSS-tier template Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox.
With a splendid phenomenon descending, a one-tailed Holy White Fox full of divine aura appeared opposite the black wolf.
The two-meter-tall Wolf King, looking down on the half-meter-tall White Fox, its eyes flashing with disdain, immediately launched an attack, swiftly pouncing towards the White Fox.
First Rank pinnacle Wolf King battling a mid-First Rank White Fox!
Talent Skill: Black Night Labyrinth! Increases speed more than fourfold.
The black wolf, in a flash, zoomed past the illusion, its speed reaching the extreme, everyone thought the winner was clear.
In the eyes of the one-tailed White Fox, it was as if dynamic vision was activated, the approaching black wolf's figure was clearly visible, every step detectable.
[Divine Charm: Causes the enemy's mind to enter a confused state for a period.]
The deep eyes of the White Fox, like starry skies, flickered; the black wolf was hit! Its eyes lost focus, its expression bewildered as it leaped past Xiao Ye, and due to its own rapid motion inertia, it smashed into a wall several dozen meters away.
Grade A Contractors were shocked!
"Is the Wolf King farsighted? The White Fox stands there unmolested?"
"Could this be some novel technique?"
The principal, somewhat understanding, exclaimed in surprise, "The black wolf fell for a Skill!"
