Chapter 1130: The Sawtooth Fish School

successfully kill their master. With the master dead, the phantom beast let out a howl and vanished as a streak of light back into the pitch-black dungeon, returning to the phantom beast space.After...In the largest conference room at First Academy, tutors from all departments were gathered. All eyes were fixed on the walls around them, for they were covered with luminous screens that flickered and displayed real-time footage of the assessment planet.

The one who just spoke was the head examiner for this assessment, Teacher Rand. He stood with his arms crossed in front of the light screen, able to see the status of all the examinees clearly. Especially after separating those with contract beasts, he immediately made corresponding arrangements.

"The team of examinees with Beast Contracts reacted quickly and didn't hesitate to run away."

A bespectacled male teacher said disdainfully.

"Mr. Muha, you're just talking without feeling the pain! You don't even see the size of their Star Beasts. If they really fought, the first one to be injured would be their own teammate. I think these examinees are doing the right thing. At least they've made space for those with abilities."

Another red-haired female teacher immediately retorted.

It's clear that the teachers on site don't all agree.

"Professor Rand, what do you think"

Muha turned his spear towards Rand.

“This is a test of their individual survival skills, pushing them to their limits. Team collaboration is something we teach the students after they enter the academy. Besides, this is their first time meeting each other. If they were to have perfect coordination right now, I'd think they were cheating.”

Rand's words successfully shut Muha up. The red-haired Head Teacher Dai Sui immediately gave Muha a "you lost" look, which angered Muha so much that he turned away and ignored her.

The conference room fell silent momentarily, but all the teachers turned their gaze to the student they were each focused on. Many of them were looking at Ripple's light screen.

By now the ripples had already reached the river, and she jumped down from the whirlwind, then lay beside it, starting to observe the surroundings of the little river.

"Ripple, since you entered this planet, you have been under constant surveillance."

Little Six suddenly sent a message reminder to Ripple.

"I know that this is for sure, otherwise how could the examiners assess our performance."

"Need help"

Xiao Liu asked eagerly to show his performance.

"No, since this is an assessment, we should follow the academy's regulations. You should have confidence in me."

The ripples really disdain using cheating methods to pass the assessment.

"Okay, I will remind you as soon as there are any updates."

Little Six chose to be silent so as not to trouble his owner.

At this time, Kouki and Xinghe, along with three other companions who had contract beasts, all arrived at the grove by the river. Especially when they saw Ripples and her star beast not daring to approach the river, they also chose to scatter and hid in different places.

"Ripples, did you discover anything"

I saw the footprints of a monster by the riverbank, but there weren't many, and they were clearly from large monsters. It proves they came to drink water by the river, but I always feel like this little river is too calm.

Ripples voiced her suspicions.

At this time, the black-haired boy not far from them lowered his voice and said:

"My star beast Ao Xiang said there are fish in the creek, but they are sawfish."

"Hiss!"

Whoever it was, drew a sharp breath. Everyone's faces grew serious.

"After finally finding a small river and hoping to get some drinking water, I came across sawtooth fish."

Xinghe said softly.

The serrated fish is a gregarious chimera, the size of a newborn baby. It's small compared to other chimeras, but don't let that fool you. Its bite is incredibly strong, capable of chewing through anything. Even if a mecha falls into the mouth of a serrated fish, it will be chewed to pieces.

A single sawtooth fish poses limited danger, but these creatures usually appear in large groups except when spawning. A sawtooth fish group consists of at least a thousand or two thousand individuals, and larger schools can number in the tens of thousands. Therefore, sawtooth fish are dominant in the water, and most small alien beasts serve as their food source.

However, the sawtooth fish's teeth make excellent materials for crafting weapons, and its meat is also rich and nutritious, a rare delicacy. However, because it is difficult to catch, the price has always been high.

As soon as her companion mentioned the sawfish, ripples of interruption ran through the crowd. After all, she was a child from a poor family.

"As far as I know, this sawfish is very valuable. Why don't we take the opportunity to catch some"

Ripple turned to ask Kouki.

Kouji was also a little moved, she turned her head and asked Xinghe:

"Star River, what do you think I think your Red Heart can help."

“Wow! I haven’t caught a sawfish before!”

The Milky Way is also starting to stir.

Before the boy with jet-black hair, who had previously spoken of the sawtooth fish, spoke again:

"My son Ao Xiang can help too."

The remaining man and woman were obviously swept up in the tide, their star beasts couldn't do much, but they immediately stated that they would do their best to assist.

Since we've reached a consensus, let Ripple go first and scout out the sawtooth fish. We need to at least figure out the scale of their operation.

Xuanfeng stretched lazily, transforming from his steed into a sleek black cat. He padded to the riverbank, dipped a paw in the water to test it, then retracted it and licked his paw clean. Satisfied that the water was drinkable, he took a second swipe with more force this time.

Then, the next second, a silver sawfish leaped out of the river surface and headed straight for the whirlpool.

The whirlwind wasn't messing around. The sharp claws hidden beneath its fleshy pads instantly flashed, directly impaling the lead sawtooth fish. With a flick of its paw, it sent the sawtooth fish flying towards Ripple's direction.

With a wrist flick, the transparent deadly thread wound itself around the sawtooth fish.

The sawshark was clearly experiencing this for the first time, its tail quivering as it desperately gnawed on the deadly silk, its silver teeth glinting menacingly.

Ripples stepped directly on it, causing the sawtooth fish to stop bouncing. Then he turned to Koji and asked:

"Do you have a dagger"

"Yes!"

Kouki immediately drew a dagger from her waist and handed it to Ripples.

The ripples struck directly, severing the sawtooth fish's head clean off, and then it couldn't move anymore.

Xinghe picked up the fish head and, while plucking off the sawtooth pairs from its side, happily said:

"This is good stuff, be sure to keep it."

"Well, the fish is also very fresh, you could make sashimi."

Kouki swallowed hard and said.

"Look!"

The black-haired boy immediately let out a low cry.

As everyone looked up, they saw that this time the whirlwind had stirred up a school of sawfish. The sawfish jumped out of the water one after another, attacking the whirlwind on the shore. There were at least a hundred of them, indicating that there were at least a thousand sawfish in the river.

The tornado is nimble, dodging left and right, then leading the schools of fish slowly to their hiding place.

"We need to find a way to kill the fish. Sawfish can't stay out of water for long, this is our chance. One person should keep watch."

Having finished speaking, Lian Yi took out her short staff from her bag. As she leaped out of the forest, the short staff transformed into a long one. With a single swing, she knocked unconscious four or five sawtooth fish.

Kouki followed closely behind, her familiars star beast, Liliana, at her heels. Liliana lashed out with her claws and tail while Kouki wielded a dagger, hacking away at the sawtooth fish.h cars and continue following.
