Chapter 155: Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon

“Xuanyu, what exactly was that?” Qian Lei asked, his heart still throbbing in fear.

He was already used to Lan Xuanyu protecting him, even during training, since he was the weakest.

“You’re right,” Lan Xuanyu said. “Once Ling Yiyi disappeared, this chap must have been released.”

Qian Lei’s current Spiritual Power was comparable to Lan Xuanyu’s, well above 450. When his Soul Power broke through to the second ring, there was an explosive growth in his Spiritual Power. He was on par with Lan Xuanyu in this aspect. Further, Qian Lei had a very keen intuition and was great at sensing danger.

“I don’t recognize this soul beast either; it must be a mutated soul beast. Judging by its appearance, its foundation should be a Ground Fire Lizard. I just don’t know what its cultivation is. It might be tens of thousands of years, then the metamorphosis occurred, because even if a Ground Fire Lizard evolved into a Ground Fire Dragon, it wouldn’t have wings. However, this actually has wings and its body is covered in red scales. I highly suspect that after the changes appeared, it began evolving into a real dragon. Scarlet dragons are the prime example of a dragon with fire properties; it should be between a fire dragon and a scarlet dragon.

Once Lan Xuanyu calmed down, he formed his own analysis of this beast. This chap wasn’t a real dragon, but it had already surpassed the level of a ground dragon.

Even those elites that had six or seven rings wouldn’t be able to deal with it, let alone them. They would definitely die upon contact, so now they finally understood why Ling Yiyi’s gaze was so strange when she left. She was probably grieving for them, huh!

Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon! This was the name Lan Xuanyu came up with.

At this moment, the gigantic Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon’s gaze wasn’t on the three groups that were scurrying away on the mountain but instead focused on the four groups at the bottom. There was no doubt that it was more interested in humans than those Ground Fire Lizards, which had already begun to attack those four groups of Elite Junior Class students.

“Xuanyu, do you think I’ll be able to summon such a powerful soul beast in the future?” Qian Lei’s eyes lit up. Ever since gaining Lan Xuanyu’s enhancement, his summoning became more reliable and had a bit of dragon bloodline. Although it was different every time, their strengths were extraordinary.

Lan Xuanyu glanced askance at him. “You? You can consider that after reaching seven rings. By the way, is the one I asked you to store still around?”

“Yes, of course. I’m a very reliable person!” Qian Lei immediately slapped his chest.

Liu Feng, who was pulling them along and speeding down, said in an annoyed manner, “It’s pretty hard to reach your level of shamelessness! I really admire how thick your skin is.”

“Get lost!” Qian Lei rebutted.

“Roar——” Another earth-shaking roar came. The Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon opened its mouth, and a second giant fireball began flying towards the four groups. In order to deal with the Ground Fire Lizards that were coming from all directions, the four groups had gathered together and begun to battle the Ground Fire Lizards. The incoming giant fireball was simply a disaster for them!

Lan Xuanyu suddenly had an idea and said to Liu Feng, who was helping them flee uphill, “Quick, widen the gap between our team and Jin Xiang and Lu Qianxun’s teams. That Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon seems to enjoy attacking areas with more people.”

Yes, from the point it first appeared, it had attacked them without hesitation, and when both sides dispersed, it didn’t even bother looking at them before directly choosing to attack the four groups on the ground.

What was the difference between the two clusters? The number of people!

Lan Xuanyu’s mind thought very quickly, and after learning from Yin Tianfan for so many years, he wouldn’t be able to keep up with his master if he couldn’t think fast.

Plus, he just recalled that Ling Yiyi mentioned about working in small groups when she was introducing how the qualifier would be conducted. Although she didn’t say it explicitly, she seemed to be hinting that they may possibly face direct attacks from the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon so it was better to be in small groups. Or was there going to be a change?

Lan Xuanyu couldn’t confirm all this right now, but he must try.

The Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon was simply too terrifying; nobody could predict its attacks. If they wanted to survive under such circumstances, they must first try their best to avoid dealing with its attacks directly.

Liu Feng had always trusted in Lan Xuanyu’s decisions. Three people in a team, three people moving as one body. They must have a core. And not just a core of battle, but a core of command.

Liu Feng’s body moved in a flash, and he was no longer climbing upwards but sprinting in a direction.

“Boom——”

The second fireball below exploded once again. There were scary waves of fire wreaking havoc, and a large number of Fire Lizards were blown off. There were obviously also students from the Elite Junior Class that were sent flying from the blast.

They never expected that this qualifier would be so horrifying and that they would face an opponent they couldn’t fight against.

There were a total of 12 students in those four groups, and seven of them were instantly wiped out by the waves of fire while the rest of them were all scattered everywhere by the explosion.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to dodge, but with the Ground Fire Lizards surrounding them, they didn’t have the chance to escape at all! The loss was huge.

Lan Xuanyu kept observing the situation below. When seven out of 12 people were swallowed by the waves of fire and were eliminated from the qualifier, he immediately noticed the change in the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon.

The icy pupils of the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon looked upwards, at the top of the mountain.

At first, Lan Xuanyu’s team was not far from one another so they would be slightly closer when they climbed up. However, at this moment, Lan Xuanyu’s team had pulled away from the other teams while Lu Qianxun and Jin Xiang’s teams appeared to be closer to one another.

Jin Xiang’s team could fly and was obviously chasing Lu Qianxun’s team on purpose. Who wouldn’t want to be with a strong team, huh! As for Lan Xuanyu’s side, no one had a very good relationship, so none of them had any intention of drawing close to each other. With the horrifying situation below, they didn’t even notice the increasing distance between Lan Xuanyu’s team and the rest.

In the next moment, the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon opened its mouth again and a third fireball flew directly towards the six of them.

Lan Xuanyu had been observing the movements of the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon below. Seeing the fireball spewing out quickly confirmed his theory. He yelled, “Spread out, spread out quickly! Separate in small groups and maybe we won’t trigger its attacks. Spread out, everyone!”

He used all his might to shout and could be heard from the top of the mountain to the bottom.

No matter what, they were all still classmates who had been together for three and a half years! If he could help a little, he would do it.

Seeing the fireball heading straight for them, Lu Qianxun and the rest were scared witless. Jin Xiang’s team quickly ran to the side, and Lan Xuanyu’s voice then traveled to them

Lu Qianxun had always been decisive. He acted quickly and grabbed Chang Jianyi as he yelled to Ye Lingtong, who was beside him, “Jump down!”

They were relying on their own strength to climb up, but seeing the fireball flying towards them, it was impossible to dodge by climbing up.

Lu Qianxun and Ye Lingtong leaped down, and a loud rumbling resounded above them.

A big piece of rock that was covered in flames was rolling down, about to smash their heads.

Chang Jianyi immediately released his Slow Down Soul Skill upwards and mitigated the speed of the falling rock. Lu Qianxun lifted his head and let out a long shout, Golden Lion Roar!

With his blaring roar, the descending rock shattered.

Ye Lingtong grabbed Lu Qianxun and released a white glow from her body. Her body suddenly stopped in midair. Then she put her palm out to the side of the mountain wall to reduce their speed, and the three of them landed on the midpoint of the mountain. The three people’s teamwork was simply impeccable.

Lu Qianxun didn’t look in the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon’s direction in the first instance, but instead looked at Lan Xuanyu’s team in the distance. At this moment, Lan Xuanyu’s team had already widened the gap between themselves and was climbing upwards in another direction.

Lu Qianxun took a deep breath and muttered to himself, “Lan Xuanyu, amazing!”

He had to admit that without Lan Xuanyu’s tip, he wouldn’t have made the decision to get his teammates to jump down. They worked so hard to climb up ah! But jumping down was the best way to distance themselves from Jin Xiang’s team and successfully disperse.

Lan Xuanyu’s judgment had undoubtedly saved these remaining people.

Those five remaining people at the bottom had already dispersed, with two people at one side and three at the other. They had created quite a distance between themselves.

A strange phenomenon happened at the same time.

After they had all dispersed, it was as if the huge Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon couldn’t see them anymore. Its big tail swept sideways and it spewed fireballs, but its attacks were all on the Ground Fire Lizards around it.

It had proven that Lan Xuanyu’s judgment was right, and after they dispersed into small groups, the undefeatable Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon wouldn’t attack them.
