The bonfire rose and the warm light shone on Tang Qian'Er's body. However, it made her feel a bit cold. This coldness came from Mu Chen's description of the Spiritual Road that she once yearned for.
"It seems that the Spiritual Road is not as beautiful as I thought. Fortunately, I did not go. Otherwise, not even my bones would be left."
Tang Qian'er said with some palpitation. She really could not imagine how it was like to live in a place where there was no trust.
"It was never a good place to begin with."
Mu Chen smiled. Then, he lifted his head and saw Teacher Mo waving his hands towards everybody. Then, the students turned their gazes over.
"This time's Northern Spiritual Field Training will be our campsite. Tomorrow, you will depart from here and head towards the Northern Spiritual Field to train. You will have a direct confrontation with the Spiritual Beasts. Before that, I must remind you that Spiritual Beasts are divided into High, Low, and High Rank. Most of the Spiritual Beasts in the outskirts of the Northern Spiritual Field are Low Rank Spiritual Beasts. Even so, you must work together to deal with them."
Teacher Mo's gaze swept across the surroundings as his steady voice echoed throughout the campsite. Every student listened to him attentively. They all understood that this was not a drill, but a real battle. If they were not careful, they might become food for the Spiritual Beasts.
"Low Rank Spiritual Beasts are around the Spiritual Movement Stage. Middle Rank Spiritual Beasts are around the Spiritual Rotation Stage. High Rank Spiritual Beasts are comparable to the Spirit Stage. In the depths of the Northern Spiritual Field, there are High Rank Spiritual Beasts. Therefore, you must not enter deep into the Northern Spiritual Field!"
Speaking until here, his voice was a bit strict. Even he had trouble dealing with the High Rank Spiritual Beasts in the depths of the Northern Spiritual Field. The students that just left the school were like helpless lambs.
Everyone nodded. They were not stupid enough to joke around with their lives. Not to mention High Rank Spiritual Beasts, even if it was a Middle Rank Spiritual Beast, they could only run as far as they could.
"The top three teams in this round of training will each receive a Spiritfount Pill."
Teacher Mo's expression slightly eased up. He looked at the young boys and girls whose eyes suddenly lit up and smiled: "So, in order to obtain a good result, cooperate with your companions. With your current strength, you must cooperate with each other in order to be able to survive in the outer region of the Northern Spiritual Field."
"Yes!"
The students replied in unison.
"After you kill a Spiritual Beast, do not forget to collect its Soul Essence. Although the Soul Essence of a Low Rank Spiritual Beast will not attract any Spirit Stage powerhouses, it will be used to evaluate your results."
Mu Chen nodded his head slightly. A Spirit Stage powerhouse had the ability to refine a Spiritual Beast's Soul Essence. With their strength, it was impossible for an ordinary Spiritual Beast to catch their eye.
"Teacher Mo, you are also a Spirit Stage powerhouse. What Beast Soul did you refine?"
A student asked curiously. They were extremely interested in the unique ability of a Spirit Stage powerhouse to refine a Beast Soul.
When Teacher Mo heard this, he slightly hesitated for a moment. Then, he formed a seal with one hand and a powerful Spiritual Energy suddenly erupted from his body. A golden light condensed behind him and turned into a giant golden wolf that howled towards the sky. On the surface of the giant wolf's body, there seemed to be lightning patterns, making it look mighty and extraordinary.
"Wow."
Within the campsite, there was a burst of exclamations. Even the West Branch students on the other side of the campsite looked over and were shocked when they saw the giant golden wolf behind Teacher Mo.
When Teacher Xi, who was explaining the rules to the West Branch Heaven Class students, saw this, his mouth twitched. His body slightly trembled and a powerful Spiritual Energy exploded out. Behind him, the shadow of a giant black lion appeared. On the back of the giant lion, there was also a grey tortoise shell.
All the students looked at the Spiritual Beast's Soul Essence that the two Spirit Stage powerhouses had summoned and refined. All of them were extremely envious. This kind of power was really coveting.
"I refined the High Rank Spiritual Beast Golden Thunder Wolf's Soul Essence. This Golden Thunder Wolf is also ranked on the Myriad Beast Record, but it is not at the top. It is only ranked 382nd on the Earth Ranking. Teacher Xi refined the High Rank Spiritual Beast Stone Tortoise Lion's Soul. It is ranked 390th on the Myriad Beast Record's Earth Ranking."
When Teacher Mo saw Teacher Xi's action, he smiled. He then waved his hand and the giant golden wolf behind him disappeared.
"Such a powerful Spiritual Beast is only ranked 300th on the Myriad Beast Record's Earth Ranking?
Then wouldn't the Spiritual Beasts in the top 100 of the Earth Ranking be even more abnormal?
Also, wouldn't the legendary Myriad Beast Record's Heaven Ranking be heaven defying? "Some students were amazed. If the Earth Ranking was already this powerful, then how terrifying would the Myriad Beast Record's Heaven Ranking be?
"The Spiritual Beasts that are able to enter the top 100 of the Myriad Beast Record's Earth Ranking are no longer simple Spiritual Beasts. Their strength far surpasses a Spirit Stage powerhouse and is comparable to a powerhouse that has advanced into the Three Heavens Stage. Therefore, they are also known as Heaven Rank Spiritual Beasts, or Heavenly Beasts for short."
As he said this, Teacher Mo suddenly looked at Mu Chen. The latter understood what he meant. This was because the Dragonfire Eagle that Mu Chen's father refined was ranked in the top 100 of the Earth Ranking. Therefore, the Dragonfire Eagle should have reached the level of a Heavenly Beast. Normally speaking, it would be extremely difficult for a Spirit Stage powerhouse to refine a Spiritual Beast's Soul Essence that surpassed them.
It was indeed a great opportunity for Mu Feng to be able to refine it. Because of this, Mu Feng's strength was definitely within the top 3 within the Northern Spiritual Realm's Nine Territory Lords.
After all, after advancing into the Spirit Stage, the most powerful method would be to refine a Spiritual Beast's Soul Essence. It was equivalent to having an additional combat power. Naturally, the stronger the Spiritual Beast that was refined, the stronger the person would be.
"As for those existences on the Myriad Beast Record's Heaven Ranking …" Teacher Mo's voice paused for a brief moment, before he smiled and continued, "I'm afraid that even those Sovereigns of the Great Thousand World would not dare to easily take action against them."
"Okay, it's almost time. You should all rest early today. Tomorrow morning, you will enter the Northern Spiritual Field and officially train!"
Teacher Mo felt that he had said enough and waved his hand to stop the excited boys and girls.
When everyone heard this, they dispersed with some excitement. Mu Chen also returned to his tent and closed his eyes to cultivate. Once again, he tried to refine the second Limitless Death Seal.
A peaceful night passed by.
The next day, when the morning arrived, many students were already prepared in the camp. They looked at the vast forest excitedly.
Mu Chen and Tang Qian 'Er were together. They looked around and saw Tan Qingshan not far away. Beside him was Mo Ling. From the looks of it, the two of them seemed to have formed a team. This made Mu Chen a little surprised. Mo Ling was at the Spiritual Movement Stage Late Phase. If he wanted to find someone to form a team with, there would be many people more suitable than Tan Qingshan.
"Mu Chen, are you in the same team as Qian 'Er?
Hehe, I am in the same team with Qingshan. He is a newcomer and it is a bit dangerous here. That's why I wanted to take care of him. "Mo Ling also saw Mu Chen. He walked over with Tan Qingshan and smiled.
Mu Chen smiled and nodded. From Mo Ling's words, he could tell that Mo Ling wanted to build a good relationship with him. It seemed that the reason why Mo Ling wanted to take care of Tan Qingshan was because he wanted to befriend him.
"Senior Mo Ling is really thoughtful."
Mu Chen smiled and said. He did not have any ill feelings towards Mo Ling, so he did not dislike Mo Ling's befriending.
The two of them laughed and chatted for a while. Then, their voices suddenly stopped. On their right, the crowd suddenly dispersed and a few familiar figures appeared in front of Mu Chen. The person in the lead was Liu Yang, who was defeated by Mu Chen in the Academy Exam.
Liu Yang stared at Mu Chen. His eyes were a bit gloomy. The battle in the Academy Exam was a big blow to his reputation. After entering the Heaven Class, although his big brother was Liu Mubai, some of the sneaky taunts still filled his heart with rage.
Mu Chen only glanced at Liu Yang for a moment before turning his head to look at his side. At that location, there was a tall and sturdy boy. At this moment, he was staring at Mu Chen with interest.
"You are that Mu Chen?
You seem to be quite famous recently. "The young man in yellow smiled as he stared at Mu Chen and asked casually.
"Chen Tong, what are you guys trying to do?" Mo Ling frowned when he saw the two young men and asked in a deep voice.
Mu Chen's expression was calm. Chen Tong. This name was quite famous in the Northern Spiritual Academy. Although he could not compare to Liu Mubai, he was still ranked third in the Northern Spiritual Academy Overall Ranking. His strength was at the Spiritual Movement Stage Late Phase and he was the same as Mo Ling. He could be considered as a person that the Northern Spiritual Academy focused on nurturing.
"In the past, you always came by yourself to show off. Why do you need to bring someone else to come now?" Mu Chen glanced at Liu Yang and smiled.
Hearing these words, Liu Yang's face suddenly turned pale. He said darkly: "Keep showing off. Don't let us meet you in the Northern Spiritual Field. Otherwise, you'll suffer!"
Mu Chen smiled and shook his head: "Compared to your big brother, you are indeed lacking."
"Hehe, you're really arrogant. How about we get to know each other?
I am Chen Tong from the West Branch. I have long wanted to meet the only person in the Northern Spiritual Realm who obtained the qualifications to enter the Spiritual Road. "Chen Tong extended his hand and smiled.
"Let's go."
Mu Chen smiled slightly. He was too lazy to pay attention to these two individuals and directly passed by Chen Tong. Then, his footsteps stopped and he tilted his head to look at a place not far away. At that place, the handsome Liu Mubai, who was wearing white clothes, was faintly staring at him.
The two of them looked at each other and a faint chill seemed to flow in the air. This caused the surrounding students to quietly close their mouths.
"If you don't like me, then come at me yourself. I don't like these people."
Mu Chen smiled and did not stay any longer. He brought Tang Qian'Er and the others out of the camp and quickly headed towards the Northern Spiritual Field.
Liu Mubai narrowed his eyes as he watched Mu Chen leave. A faint chill flashed through his eyes.
"This bastard!" Liu Yang said as he gritted his teeth.
Chen Tong grinned and his eyes were slightly sinister.
"It's okay. Let him be arrogant for now. We'll meet again in the Northern Spiritual Field. When there's no one watching, I'll teach him manners. He really doesn't know how to respect his seniors."
