Beast Taming: Slaughter Atlas

After leaving the Daoist School, Chu Chen went straight home.

He eagerly returned to his bedroom, summoned Lei Yao, and then took out the Skill Inheritance Pearl.

Under Chu Chen's guidance, the Skill Inheritance Pearl turned into a handful of powder.

Chu Chen looked at Lei Yao with anticipation, hoping it would comprehend something.

A moment later, Lei Yao slowly opened its eyes, but its gaze was full of confusion.

Seeing this, Chu Chen couldn't help but let out a wry smile, but he soon let it go.

The cultivation of the Thunder Ape Secret Technique was extremely difficult, and it was obviously impossible to comprehend it in a short time. It was already fortunate to obtain the cultivation method, and if Lei Yao were to comprehend it on its own, it would be hopeless in this life.

Chu Chen let Lei Yao cultivate on its own according to the method in the inheritance, while he began his meditation. In half a month, he would be entering the Secret Realm, and if he could advance to the Ninth Rank of the Soul Pupil Level, his chances of survival would increase slightly.

Time flew by, and it was time to go back to school again.

Chu Chen went to school as usual, and when he arrived at the school gates, he was met with envious, jealous glances and the praise of parents.

Chu Chen was already immune to this, and he walked into the campus with a calm expression.

When he arrived at the entrance of the teaching building, he found Chen Qian standing at the entrance, along with classmates from the Elite Class.

However, these students were very cold towards him.

When they saw Chu Chen, they either turned their heads subconsciously or directly turned their backs, pretending not to see him.

Seeing this, Chu Chen couldn't help but frown. He had always been well-received by people and kept a low profile, and he hadn't offended these people. He couldn't understand why they would treat him like this.

Just as Chu Chen was pondering, a familiar voice came from not far away.

"Top student, over here."

Looking in the direction of the voice, Chu Chen saw Gangzi waving at him, with Wang Lu and others beside him.

"You guys are early." Chu Chen waved to them and said.

"Of course, today is the first day of class redistribution, naturally, we have to come early." Wang Lu replied with a smile.

"What's going on with those classmates?" Chu Chen pointed to the classmates beside him and asked in a low voice.

Wang Lu lowered his voice and said, "Maybe someone is deliberately targeting us."

Just then, a girl led three boys over.

Seeing this, Chu Chen greeted with a smile, "Good morning, Ji Tongxue."

The girl was none other than Ji Mingyue.

"Chu Chen, you're being too formal. Just call me Ming Yue from now on." Ji Mingyue said with a smile.

The three boys following Ji Mingyue looked at the girl in front of them with astonishment, clearly shocked by her words.

These three boys were from the Ji Family, and they were extremely familiar with Ji Mingyue. From the moment she was born, she was the jewel of the clan, her grandfather was the Patriarch of the Ji Family, and her parents were both Great Soul Masters, and she herself was a talent at the Cyan Rank Middle Grade.

In Celestial Star City, whether in terms of family background or talent, she was outstanding. When dealing with peers, she usually had an indifferent attitude, but now she seemed to be quite attentive to this ordinary boy, which naturally surprised the three boys.

With the change in addressing, everyone's relationships naturally became much closer.

After a conversation, Chu Chen and others learned why those classmates were so cold.

All of this was Qian Jiadong's doing, but Zhao Peng also had a hand in it.

Chu Chen could only shake his head helplessly at this, finding these childish tricks truly laughable.

Just as Chu Chen was speechless, a tall girl walked toward the group.

Seeing this, people began whispering, and the girls' gazes were full of jealousy. Even Ji Mingyue couldn't help but show a hint of envy, while the boys' gazes were filled with admiration.

The girl's expression didn't change in the slightest upon seeing this, remaining indifferent as if nothing interested her.

Seeing the girl, Chen Qian quickly went up to greet her, "Yu Yan is here."

Hearing the teacher's enthusiastic greeting, Zhang Yuyan said calmly, "Hello, teacher."

Chen Qian was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly said with a smile, "Good, everyone is here, let's go to the new classroom for the meeting." She then led Zhang Yuyan into the teaching building.

People couldn't help but purse their lips at this sight.

"Top student, you've lost favor." Wang Lu put his arm around Chu Chen's shoulder and teased.

"Get lost." Chu Chen replied grumpily.

When everyone was seated, Chen Qian started the first class meeting.

The content of the meeting wasn't much.

First, each student introduced themselves to help everyone get acquainted.

Although Chu Chen was reluctant, under the circumstances, he had no choice but to conform.

Secondly, the treatment of the Elite Class was discussed. This time, the school, in cooperation with various parties, created a small cultivation tower for the Elite Class. The cultivation tower had only four floors, the fourth floor had five cultivation rooms, the third floor had ten, the second floor had twenty, and the first floor had forty.

The higher the floor, the denser the Star Power in the cultivation rooms, but the number of rooms on each floor was limited, so the priority for choosing cultivation rooms was based on assessment rankings.

The assessment results were based on cultural assessment and actual combat assessment.

Zhang Yuyan's cultural assessment score was only one point lower than Chu Chen's, but her talent was high, her realm was high, and her strength was strong, so she unsurprisingly ranked first, while Chu Chen could only take second place.

Gangzi's scores were in the upper range of the class, ranking third.

The fourth place went to Ji Mingyue. If it weren't for Chu Chen, she could have at least ranked in the top three.

Wang Lu's scores were only above average, but his actual combat assessment scores were relatively high, barely ranking fifth.

However, such a result was enough to make him proud.

The sixth and seventh places were Qian Jiadong and Zhao Peng, respectively.

Skinny and Cold Face were nineteenth and twentieth, respectively.

When the scores came out, Qian Jiadong and Zhao Peng's faces turned extremely sour.

They had no hope of accessing the fourth floor of the cultivation tower, and though they didn't care about the concentration of Star Power in the rooms, having their pride trampled made their gazes toward Chu Chen and others even colder.

The school distributed cultivation resources to the students based on their ranking.

The first-place student received fifteen bottles of Star Power Pills per month, thirty million Alliance Coins for cultivation funds, and unlimited usage of the cultivation rooms.

The second-place student received thirteen bottles of Star Power Pills per month, twenty million Alliance Coins for cultivation funds, and unlimited usage of the cultivation rooms.

...

The thirtieth-place student received five bottles of Star Power Pills per month, five million Alliance Coins for cultivation funds, with a limited usage of the cultivation rooms for ten hours.

The school was making a significant investment this time, with nearly ten million Alliance Coins spent monthly on the Elite Class alone.

The last item of the class meeting was the class rules.

The school does not support idle people, each member of the class has one challenge right per month, and lower-ranked students can challenge higher-ranked students, and the challenged cannot refuse.

To avoid impacting cultivation, each person can only be challenged three times at most.

"Teacher, I want to challenge Chu Chen." As soon as Chen Qian finished explaining the class rules, Qian Jiadong impatiently jumped out.

Chen Qian, hearing this, said somewhat displeased, "Class rules take effect next month, sit down quickly and don't disrupt the class order."

Ignoring Chen Qian's warning, Qian Jiadong stared at Chu Chen and said coldly, "Chu Chen, aren't you the top student? Weren't you the first in the actual combat assessment? Why are you chickening out now? You might dodge for a while, but not forever. I'll let you have your way for a month."
