Looking at the exotic beasts attributes, Zhang Che couldnt help but shake his head. It was no wonder the Hidden Sandworm was unable to retaliate against the Scarlet Head Golden Back Centipede. It turned out that it was only a black iron-tier beast. Even though its level was at two stars, its strength was lower than a one-star bronze quality beast.

In the end, the Hidden Sandworm turned completely motionless after a short while.

The Scarlet Head Golden Back Centipede loosened its limbs that were coiled around the Hidden Sandworm and crawled around Huang Tielan triumphantly, waving its mandibles about. It looked like it was asking for a reward.

Huang Tielan was very pleased. She extended her hand and patted the Scarlet Head Golden Back Centipedes head, praising it with a smile, My Xiaohong is the best. Go on!

After getting Huang Tielans approval, the Scarlet Head Golden Back Centipede immediately crawled back to the Hidden Sandworms corpse and began chomping on it.

This little thing actually waited for its masters approval before feasting on its prey. One could see how well-trained it was.

Zhang Ches eyes narrowed, feeling curious about Huang Tielans family. Exactly what kind of family is she a part of, to have such a powerful beast?

With the threat eliminated, the youngsters started expressing their amazement.

Woah, Huang Tielans beast is so powerful! The exotic beast was killed without being able to do a thing!

Thats right. Hers is a silver quality beast! How could ordinary trash compare to it?

Hehe, are you talking about your own beast?

Other than battling, a subdued beasts level could be raised by consuming the flesh and blood of other exotic beasts.

Of course, in the beast world, they would turn into a streak of light and disappear without leaving a corpse. However, before they completely disappeared, a fraction of the light could be consumed by the subdued beast, and the benefits of that were not much different from physically consuming them.

Most subdued beasts preferred to actually enjoy the flesh and meat of the exotic beasts, however.

At this moment, the tamed beasts by their respective masters sides were looking longingly in the Scarlet Head Golden Back Centipedes direction. Every one of them wanted to get a piece of the pie, but they were afraid of the latters strength and didnt dare to come forward.

Wu Junyus Black Wind Beast suffered a sneak attack earlier. Now that the Hidden Sandworm was killed, it seemed very eager. It probably wanted to go vent out some of its frustrations on the corpse.

Erm, Huang Tielan, can my beast get a bite of the exotic beasts flesh? As its master, Wu Junyu understood his beasts desire.

He knew that without any beast card restoration solution, the best way for his beast to recover was to eat a sumptuous meal. Thus, even though he wasnt on good terms with Huang Tielan, he put his pride aside and asked for the favor.

Huang Tielans eyes shifted slightly, then she smiled and nodded, No problem. This worm is so long; my Xiaohong cant possibly finish it by itself. Let your beast come over and eat some too.

Wu Junyu was immediately wild with joy and commanded, Go, Xiaohei!

That dumb black bears eyes beamed with light. It immediately ran to the Hidden Sandworms corpse, but it was still weary of the Scarlet Head Golden Back Centipede and avoided it. The black bear aimed at the parts that were nearer to the hole and started tearing at its flesh.

Seeing this, the rest of the students were feeling tempted as well.

There was still a huge chunk of the Hidden Sandworms corpse hidden underground. If they dragged it out, it was probably enough for everyones beast to feast on.

However, before a second person could open their mouth, Wu Junyus black bear suddenly stopped moving. Its huge figure stiffened and fell onto the ground.

Wu Junyu was shocked. He cried out, Xiaohei, what happened to you?

This bronze quality Black Wind Beast was prepared for him by his family, spending tens of thousand dollars to buy it. If it were to die here for some unknown reasons, thatd truly be an injustice.

Just as Wu Junyu was going to rush up to check on it, the second lieutenant by the side spoke up, Dont worry. Your beast was only poisoned. Return it to your spiritual sea and it will recover in a few hours.

Mmm, the Hidden Sandworm was injected with quite an amount of poison by the Scarlet Head Golden Back Centipede earlier. It would be a wonder if the Black Wind Beast wasnt poisoned after devouring its flesh.

Wu Junyu finally understood what happened and felt relieved after hearing Lieutenant Qis explanation. All was good if his beast is going to be fine.

However, he felt a little discontented towards Lieutenant Qi immediately after. Since you knew it would turn out this way, why didnt you remind me earlier?

Of course, he didnt dare to express his feelings out loud.

Even so, Lieutenant Qis bright eyes swept across Wu Junyus face and seemed to know what he was thinking. He said in a ridiculing tone, What, are you blaming me for not reminding you?

Wu Junyu hurriedly averted his gaze and claimed profusely, I dont dare to.

Hehe, he was a greenhorn, indeed. He didnt know how to conceal his thoughts at all. Dont dare to, that means he still resented him inwardly, but he didnt dare voice it out.

The Lieutenant didnt seem to care, however. The faint smile on his face suddenly disappeared and he swept his gaze across the group of students. He said indifferently, This is my first lesson to all of you.

Seeing everyone was looking his way, Second Lieutenant Qi continued, I know that you learned from the books that a subdued beast can strengthen itself via devouring an exotic beasts flesh and blood. If it managed to consume a mid or high-tier beast, there is even a chance for it to increase its current level, advancing into a higher star rank. However Lieutenant Qis expression finally turned strict.

However, not all exotic beasts flesh and blood is safe for consumption. For example, this Hidden Sandworm from before. Didnt you see that it was killed by this girls beast using poison?

The reason why her centipede beast was able to enjoy the sandworms flesh was because the poison originated from it. Naturally it wouldnt be affected. However, cant you guys use your brains a little? You actually wanted to let your own beasts take a bite as well!

Remember this. If you wish to continue surviving from beast battles in the future, you have to be more observant, and think more!

The students suddenly came to a realization and lowered their heads in shame.

Such was the case for Wu Junyu especially. It could be said that he made a big fool of himself in front of everyone. At this moment, his fair face was bright red from shame, wishing that he could hide in a hole.

Seeing as the group was in low spirits, Lieutenant Qi didnt wish to further crush these newbies confidence. He clapped his hands and said, Alright, this is your first actual combat training, after all. Its understandable that you arent familiar with some common knowledge. The combat training is precisely to train you up on your basics. Just remember to not commit the same mistakes.

After which, the group continued advancing into the woods, but the atmosphere was now vastly different than before.

In the beginning, many of the students were in a curious, playful mood. From then on, their mindsets were properly adjusted, wanting to learn many more things from this outdoor training.
