Chapter 79: The Final Test
"Hey, Changfeng, I don't like what you're saying."
"Wang Chen's combat talent is indeed top-notch, but there's no end to battles. Only by striving for perfection can one move forward and achieve greatness."
"If you ask me, we should let this kid come to my War Academy. Whether it's resources or combat guidance, I can give him the best!"
Seeing Qu Changfeng and Wei Yuan already starting to recruit Wang Chen, He Fu'an, the dean of the War Academy, quickly stepped in.
"Then let's see who can recruit him," Qu Changfeng said with a confident smile. As the dean of the richest Magic Academy, he was not intimidated by these two old friends when it came to offering conditions.
"Fine, when the freshman exams are over, we'll see which academy Wang Chen chooses!" Wei Yuan was also confident. The Beast Academy of Xuanyuan Academy was a dream hall that all beast tamers aspired to enter. For Wang Chen, a beast tamer, the best choice was the Beast Academy.
Li Qingyun, the dean of the Shadow Academy, and Milan, the dean of the Light Academy, wanted to speak up for recruitment. However, Wang Chen's specialties didn't align with their academies' focuses. One specialized in assassin burst professions, and the other in support and front-line professions. Wang Chen's beast pet and combat style clearly didn't match any of these three areas. Besides, in terms of resources, they couldn't offer better conditions than these three old guys, so they could only watch helplessly.
The ace mentors nearby were speechless. The freshman competition wasn't even over, and Wang Chen had already become a hot commodity, frantically sought after by the deans. It's likely that Meng Yongsheng, Cao Wenbin, and other talents in the instance didn't realize they had already been completely ignored.
"He Dean, do you still want to switch the camera to Wang Chen?"
At this time, the director teacher asked cautiously.
"At this point, no need."
"If that kid can instantly defeat the biochemical giant of the third stage, he should be able to easily pass the final boss of the fourth stage."
"We can watch the battle replay later. Switch the camera to other freshmen and see their performance," He Fu'an said steadily.
The final boss of the fourth stage was a level 70, 'Extraordinary (Nine Stars)' biochemical monster named 'Sin Warden,' with balanced attributes of 40,000 points each. When fully activated, it could increase to 60,000 points. But since Wang Chen could instantly defeat the biochemical giant, dealing with the 'Sin Warden' should be a piece of cake. Instead of wasting time switching the camera, it was better to watch the battle replay later.
...
Inside the instance.
Wang Chen had already crossed the third stage and officially entered the fourth stage. The biochemical giant of the third stage was indeed formidable, but it was like an ant in front of Xiao Qing.
At the start, the biochemical giant exhibited extremely insane and perverse speed, like a mutated demon, crawling towards Wang Chen with limbs on the ground, more ferocious than ghosts in horror movies.
However, facing this elite monster that constantly flashed around, Xiao Qing snorted proudly. It then used two skills: 'Thunderstorm (S)' and 'Thunder Roar (SS).' The agility attribute of 50,000 points skyrocketed to 250,000 points at that moment, a 500% increase. The critical hit rate, directly overflowing, increased fivefold to 200%, with critical damage also increasing fivefold. The SS-level skill 'Thunder Roar' allowed Xiao Qing to flash instantly to the biochemical giant and let out a dragon roar.
"Roar!"
The dragon roar, with dragon might, thundered like a startling clap near the biochemical giant's ears. The sonic damage carrying the azure lightning attribute ignored the biochemical giant's armor and magic resistance, ensuring a critical hit, electrocuting the giant instantly.
What made Wang Chen happiest was the faint emergence of a pair of dragon horns on Xiao Qing's forehead during the skill activation, with four azure dragon claws vaguely appearing under its belly. This was a sign of dragon transformation! It seemed that with the activation of the World-Destroying Azure Dragon bloodline to 20%, Xiao Qing would gradually manifest the Azure Dragon traits as its level increased. This was a good sign!
After eliminating the biochemical giant in less than ten seconds, Wang Chen and Xiao Qing rushed to the final stage without a moment's delay.
Wang Chen and Xiao Qing stepped through the light gate and entered the final stage. Unlike the previous dark and dirty prison, the scene before them was a spacious high-tech hall, glowing with green light. Inside were numerous biochemical experiment tanks containing sickly green fluids and pulsating masses of flesh with grotesque human faces.
In the center of the hall, a man in a white coat stood by a data table, focused on tinkering with something.
"Another test subject..." The man looked up, adjusted his glasses, and his eyeless, creepy gaze fell on Wang Chen with a faint smile.
Wang Chen didn't bother with him and cast an appraisal skill.

...
The information about this boss appeared before Wang Chen. The 'First Stage' after its name indicated that this monster had more than one life bar. After killing its first life, it would trigger the second life and enter a stronger monster form.
"Will you lie on the test table yourself, or should I chop off your limbs and put you on it?" Sin Warden smiled at Wang Chen.
But what answered it was a cute voice.
"Squeak!"
In an instant, Xiao Qing's figure teleported in front of Sin Warden and its tail swept fiercely towards the opponent's head. With a full-force sweep, even the Sin Warden's head would explode. Sensing danger, Sin Warden, being a boss, dodged the sweeping tail attack at the last moment by ducking. Simultaneously, a sharp scalpel appeared in its hand, stabbing towards Xiao Qing's belly. It expected this attack to disembowel the green snake but was shocked to find...
Clang!
The scalpel struck like hitting an iron plate, with no penetration, sparks flying.
"What..."
What was going on! This specially crafted scalpel, capable of piercing through the defense of any level 65 challenger, couldn't even break the scales of a small snake?
