"The place where we live, everyone should have learned about in high school. The territory of Jiuzhou is like an isolated island in the endless wilderness beyond, and we live only on this small island. No one has yet been able to figure out just how vast the land beyond the wilderness is, for those who venture too far from this island rarely return."
"Our territory is frequently assaulted by beast tides. Desolate beasts from the wilderness often riot and sometimes gather in certain places, battering the defenses of Jiuzhou, attempting to break through."
The last major beast tide outbreak occurred six years ago. The entire boundary of Jiuzhou was completely surrounded, with several breaches in the boundary defenses, resulting in heavy casualties.
Of course, in the six years since then, even every minute and every second, there have been minor beast tide attacks on Jiuzhou's defenses. These minor beast tides do not break through the defenses, so they're not taken too seriously, but we must not be careless.
Once there is a large-scale outbreak of the beast tide, the defenses will absolutely not hold. At that time, no matter your profession, as long as you are martial artists, you must answer the call of duty and rush to the frontline of Jiuzhou's defense, following commands to fight.
At that moment, if you have a detailed understanding of each desolate beast, your chances of survival when the beast tide comes will be greatly increased. This is not a joke; this is the awareness you must have as martial artists."
Xu Yang's words were serious, emphasizing the importance of the class, and everyone started to pay attention.
Indeed, learning about desolate beasts is crucial; it can save your life at critical times.
"In this class, I will teach you about common desolate beasts, their weaknesses, and the methods to deal with them. You all must master this. Our school has a research institute for desolate beast technology, where a group of people specialize in creating various tools to deal with desolate beasts. I will also introduce these tools to you in the future."
Regarding this matter, Xiang Beifei probably had the most to say since when Yuchi Shen threw him into the wilderness outside the domain, he didn't carry any tools, unlike Guo Han and Sun Rui, who were well-equipped.
After a while, Xu Yang's tone changed and he looked at Xiang Beifei, saying,
"Xiang Beifei, you must be the only student in the class who has been to the wilderness outside the domain and has truly fought with a desolate beast. I believe many are curious about you. Today's class is about the knowledge of desolate beasts. Last time, you defeated a Triangular Thunder Krait, which is as powerful as a Qi-Controlling Awakener at its peak, which is indeed no simple feat. Later on, I would like you to share your experience in killing the Triangular Thunder Krait."
Xiang Beifei slightly frowned, then said, "Teacher flatters me, I still have much to learn compared to you, I dare not speak out of turn."
"Haha, humility is a virtue. We are all here to learn about desolate beasts; it's okay to make mistakes."
Xu Yang had no idea that Xiang Beifei had already recognized that it was he who had controlled the hounds to attack that day. At the time, he had hidden his tracks very well and did not expect someone who had not even reached the Qi-Controlling stage to recognize him.
However, he did not expect that Xiang Beifei had already seen through his system clearly.
Right now, Xiang Beifei still had no way to find any trace within Xu Yang's system because relying solely on Xu Yang's system tasks, the intentions of the other party that day could not be determined.
This was very puzzling.
Why would Xu Yang be a college teacher?
And to be teaching his class?
No, he must go ask Elder Luo later.
"Today's first lesson was supposed to follow the syllabus and study the Lesser Ant. However, a few days ago I caught a Triangular Thunder Krait. Hearing about our class's new student Xiang Beifei, I thought it was a good opportunity to let him explain how he dealt with the Triangular Thunder Krait. You can all listen to his experience."
Xu Yang smiled slightly, then with a wave of his hand, the lecterns and blackboard around him suddenly disappeared, leaving the classroom spacious. Immediately, a huge Triangular Thunder Krait appeared in mid-air!
This Triangular Thunder Krait was seven to eight meters long, very robust, a bit smaller than the one Xiang Beifei had killed before.
The sudden appearance of the Triangular Thunder Krait elicited a low murmur from the new students in the classroom. Having just graduated from high school, nearly all the students, except for Xiang Beifei, were seeing a real desolate beast for the first time!
The Triangular Thunder Krait emitted a pungent, stinky smell that filled the air. Even in death, its body still faintly carried a strong aura. After all, it had the strength of a late-stage Qi-Controlling period, imposing a great pressure on these beginners.
Several girls sitting in the front row even turned pale, covering their noses and leaning back, trying to distance themselves from the fierce-looking desolate snake.
Even Long Guocheng, Li Zimu, and the other two SR Awakeners frowned at the sight of the Triangular Thunder Krait. Its formidable presence even in death made them wonder... if it were alive...
Thinking this, Long Guocheng couldn't help but turn to look at Xiang Beifei. After a glance, he looked away and thought to himself, "This guy, he actually managed to kill this kind of snake?"
Seeing the reactions of the new students, particularly the disgusted expressions of the girls, Xu Yang said, "Today is your first encounter with a desolate beast. It's understandable to feel this way, but remember, by choosing the Martial Arts College, you are a martial artist. Desolate beasts are something you must deal with; you have to learn to adapt to their presence."
