Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy

Su Chen closed his eyes, his fists clenched tightly, a trace of determination appearing on his face.

If I have to die, so be it. At worst, I'll drag you to hell with me!

As he was knocked to the ground, he opened his eyes again, letting out a roar as fierce as a landslide!

"Ah..."

The sound waves resonated, making heaven and earth tremble. The entire giant tower was instantly enveloped by a terrifying bloody aura! A putrid blood mist exploded in the air, completely shrouding the dungeon! …

After a long while, the blood mist dissipated, revealing a chaotic ground. Su Chen was still alive!

He sat dazed on the ground, covered in blood, and the lion's innards, remnants, and even fur. At his forehead lay a mysterious blood-red flame, but the flame was dissipating, leaving him no chance to understand it.

"What on earth happened..."

He murmured, though his strength was depleted, the bleeding had stopped. That furious roar at the brink of death seemed to have stirred some mysterious power inside him, killing the raging lion in one strike?

He brushed off the grime on himself and slowly approached the Blood Spirit Tree. The roar had shaken many Blood Spirit Fruits free, and Su Chen casually picked up two, stuffing them into his mouth, dirt and all.

Indeed, as soon as he chewed them, a warm liquid flowed through his organs, quickly replenishing the lost blood. His strength naturally came back as well, and before long, the scars on Su Chen's body healed automatically, and his complexion was mostly restored.

He glanced at the Blood Spirit Fruits, bent down to pick a few more, but suddenly heard a strange sound from above!

Looking up, a blood-red tome descended from the sky, landing right at his feet.

He was startled, then bent down to pick it up, gently brushing off the dust on the tome's surface, revealing several conspicuous characters: Primary Spirit Master Secret Record?

Primary Spirit Master Secret Record?

Su Chen opened the tome and saw a line of simple words: Spirit Master, Beast Cultivator grades, and Spirit Beast bloodline identifiers are divided into basic, intermediate, and advanced. This book explains the basics of being a Spirit Master, with a hundred detailed illustrations, simple and clear, essential for beginners. Compiler: Divine Art Source.

"Divine Art Source, he must be the compiler of this tome, seems to be a Spirit Master too."

Su Chen muttered to himself.

He looked up at the iron-mesh-covered sky overhead, puzzled as to who had thrown this Primary Spirit Master Secret Record down.

Never mind, he thought, it's better to leave first. Though his blood was replenished, his wounds still burned fiercely, and his Beast's Qi Energy had been depleted. His body felt uncomfortable now.

Holding the tome, just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly remembered the Blood Light Sword was not retrieved, and headed towards the lioness's corpse.

But as he approached the lioness, the scene before him left him stunned.

The Blood Light Sword pierced through the lioness's head on the ground, emanating a sinister crimson glow. The lioness's massive body was deflating like it had been drained of essence, shrinking smaller and smaller, until it became a withered husk, lying limp on the ground!

Su Chen's hand hovered in the air, not daring to grasp the Blood Light Sword. He swallowed hard, looking at his trembling hand, unable to recover his senses for a long time.

Finally, as the glow on the Blood Light Sword faded completely, returning to calm, Su Chen nervously grasped the hilt and easily pulled it free.

But once in hand, he noticed that the Blood Light Sword felt slightly heavier than before. He repeatedly turned the blade, unable to see any difference, and could only turn and walk towards the exit.

As he watched the iron door gradually close, Su Chen felt a sense of unreality, wondering if the fierce battle against ten opponents was just a dream.

Ghost Howl, with a face long covered in frost, no longer seemed cold but carried a faint, inscrutable look, possibly surprise, or perhaps an epiphany.

Su Chen pressed his lips, finally asking, "Is there anyone living inside, who just threw something down?"

As he spoke, he slowly handed over the Primary Spirit Master Secret Record. Ghost Howl was slightly stunned before a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, though on his face it looked disdainful, "This is the reward you deserve for passing the level, every floor has one, you should keep it."

Su Chen responded with an "oh," his gaze lowered, rubbing the tome's cover, pondering why he, who wasn't a Spirit Master, needed it.

"Let's go, the Sect Leader has probably returned to the Purple Bamboo Cottage."

Su Chen wanted to ask what the Purple Bamboo Cottage was, but Ghost Howl dragged him over...

Watching the increasingly distant yet still towering Bloody Heaven behind him, Su Chen sighed inwardly, impressed by the Blood Sect's formidable strength. …

Ghost Howl took him flying for about ten minutes, landing outside a purple bamboo forest by a lake. Strangely, the scenery here was much more beautiful than most places in the City of Death, and, most importantly, it was exceptionally quiet.

Looking at the bamboo house made entirely of purple bamboo before him, Su Chen felt strange. Was this the place where that murderous woman from the Blood Sect lived?

"Go on in, the Sect Leader might be impatient by now."

Ghost Howl's face resumed its cold demeanor.

Su Chen followed him, slowly stepping into the bamboo house. As he entered, an antique-style reception room appeared, complete with a tea table and wooden chairs. Especially the landscape paintings hanging on the walls were completely out of place with the desolate mourning scene of the City of Death.
