Chapter 14: Don’t Hinder Me

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After listening to their conversation, Chen An did not know if he should hope for good results in the written exam or not.

Nonetheless, whether he expected it or not, it would not affect the result.

When the results were announced, they also revealed the first round of actual combat assessment grouping.

Unsurprisingly, the person who ranked first and scored full marks in the written exam was indeed very advantageous and would attract everyone’s attention. The person was destined to be the center of attention in the subsequent exams.

It was just that one still could not tell what kind of attention the person would receive…

According to the grouping, different people were required to cooperate together in the first round of actual combat assessment. That was to say it would be team battles. Chen An was assigned to Group 12.

He found the place marked with the number 12. Before he went in, he already heard voices inside.

“Don’t you know? The big fool who ranked first in the written exam is in our group.”

“Really?” another person asked cowardly.


“I’ve inquired about it, it’s true. Why are we so unlucky? We are being teamed up with him. I heard that it is a team battle. I will say it in advance. I don’t want to be dragged down. You can do what you deem fit then.”

Chen An smiled.

That was right—the so-called big fool was referring to him. This was a three-person team battle, and the other two were his teammates. After confirming that this was his team, Chen An walked over.

One of them looked very imposing. He exuded an air of arrogance just by standing there. As for the other person, he looked like a yes-man, cowering in the corner.

“Are you Chen An? I am Wang Zhi. Bear this in mind, don’t hinder me later.”

This round of assessment was said to be a team battle. In fact, it was merely because too many people applied for De Yuan College every year. The college thought of using the three-on-three team battle as a way to filter out those who were weak.

In team battles, winning or losing was not important at all.

The important thing was one’s performance. As long as the examiner could see an examinee’s capability, they could pass and enter the second round of actual combat assessment.

To put it bluntly, the examinees had to display their skills.

The first few team battles were over. In a game, there were a total of six people from both sides. People could only remember one or two of the contestants. No one cared about the result of the match. They just kept discussing who was bound to stay and who was destined to be eliminated in the match.

There were a few solemn-looking people near the competition stage—they were all teachers from De Yuan College. They watched the game closely, noting down the few malleable talents who performed well.

The chief examiner announced the next round of games. “Group 12, Wang Zhi, Li Danming, Chen An.” Then, he called Group 13 and the three people within the group.

Wang Zhi was the first to stand up, and he looked very excited. “It’s our turn. Let’s go! It’s time for me to display my skills!” Before he went onto the competition stage, he kept repeating himself, telling them not to hinder him. “As long as both of you don’t get in the way, there is no way that I will fail the first round of assessment. I will absolutely pass the exam!”

Chen An felt that one should not speak in absolute terms. Battles of this kind involved a large number of people, and they were clueless about the participating beasts. The variables were too many, meaning there was no such thing as “absolute”.

The examiners, and others who came to participate in the examination, watched them from a short distance away.

Six people went onto the stage one by one, and the beast battle began.

[The Taming System has been launched. Identifying…]

The three people on the opposite side all have one portable chamber each—that was to say they had a total of three beasts.

Boulder Flower was a medium-grade Combat Beast, with its own talent skills.

Boulder: After active activation, it would form a flower-shaped barrier, where the defensive power decreased from inside out. The edge was the weakest and the center the strongest.

It was embedded with a medium-grade defense spirit core and had a low-grade skills book with it. During defense deployment, if one encountered powerful attacks, it would automatically counterattack.

Silver-Feathered Eagle, a low-grade beast with no talent skills.

It was embedded with a medium-grade agility attribute spirit core. It had a medium-grade skills book, whereby each attack would slightly strengthen the attacking power, and at the same time, one would only suffer half of the damage.

Spirit Rainbow Deer, a low-grade beast with the talent skill, Flying Rainbow. It could be randomly triggered in battles, resulting in small healing effects on oneself. There was a possibility of healing other designated beasts.

It was embedded with a low-grade defense spirit core. It did not have a skill chamber and could not contain any skills book.

After reading the information on the three beasts, Chen An’s first reaction was feeling tempted. These three pets were too interesting, so he must defeat them and get their indexes!

His second reaction was to calm down. Although the three pets were indeed not very powerful, things would be tricky when they combined and cooperated.

One was very impulsive among his two teammates, as if rushing to reincarnate, while the other was a coward who wished for nothing but shiver in a corner. They were useless. If he wanted to win, he must come up with a good strategy.

“I will show you the way!” Wang Zhi rushed out and instantly summoned his beast, which was a Combat Beast wrapped in flames, with a roar.

The other party waited. The Spirit Rainbow Deer’s master was a girl. Seeing that Wang Zhi rushed at them, she immediately jumped onto the Spirit Rainbow Deer’s back, and the little deer jumped to hide at the back.

A rainbow halo appeared on the antlers, and the remaining two Combat Beasts were also enveloped in the rainbow colors. This was the Spirit Rainbow Deer’s healing effect.

Wang Zhi was utterly clueless, and he just rushed forward.

The other opponent was a 5.3 feet tall man. He went forward and released his beast, the Boulder Flower. The flower shield was opened, and it was bigger than Chen An had imagined. The shadow cast by the light could completely cover Wang Zhi.

If Wang Zhi ran into it, the outcome would be obvious.

However, Wang Zhi did not seem to be turning back. He stubbornly insisted on his own ideas and was about to hit into it.

Chen An immediately stopped him. “Hey, don’t hit into it.”

Since the Boulder Flower carried a skills book with it, only one outcome would await whoever knocked into it.


Before Chen An could figure it out, Wang Zhi had already demonstrated to everyone clearly.

He hit the very center of the Boulder Flower’s shield, triggering the opponent’s skills book. The flower shield automatically counterattacked, closing quickly and wrapping him completely. Then the flower branch raised Wang Zhi in mid-air.

The examiner by the side sighed and shook his head slightly. He was too impulsive, and this was not how a good Beast Tamer should behave.

The other candidates could not help but laugh. Wang Zhi’s situation was really funny.

At the same time, under the Boulder Flower’s protection, the Silver-Feathered Eagle’s master also responded, releasing the beast, and the eagle hit the sky.

Chen An’s other teammate, Li Danming, was timid and fearful. He was even more afraid when he heard the Silver-Feathered Eagle’s cries. He kept asking, “What should we do, what should we do?”

What else could they do? The current situation was completely in the hands of the opponents. If they did not fight back, they would lose right away.

“Dou Buxiang!” Chen An summoned his beast.

A huge beast appeared in the battle, and roars that had never been heard before resounded everywhere.

On its head, two majestic horns shone through, and the two rows of spikes on its back sent shivers down the audience’s back.
