n“What? Do you think you’re not in any danger because you have this?”

nSeeing Ye Xuan’s expression, Nong Lejia shook his head and said, “You can’t be reckless at any given time because you don’t know when you will run into danger.”

n

n

n“And when you’re in danger, if you can’t activate the Jade Amulet in time, you’ll die a real death.”

n“I understand.” Ye Xuan shuddered inwardly.

nNong Lejia patted Ye Xuan on the shoulder. “Alright, prepare to go in.”

nHe was very much in a merry mood at this moment. Even his bald head seemed to become a little brighter.

n

n

nWith Ye Xuan’s aptitude, if there weren’t any accidents, he would surely become famous someday in the future.

nAnd now, Ye Xuan, who was standing in front of him, was like his little lackey that he could casually pat on the shoulder.

nHe was even thinking about whether he should find an excuse to kick Ye Xuan’s ass in the future. That way, he would have more stuff to brag about after the kid became famous.

nYe Xuan had absolutely no idea what the sanctimonious Assistant Nong was thinking.

n

n

nSeeing the students in the distance walking into the secret realm one after another, he hurriedly took Lil Wan and queued up at the end of the line.

nSeeing Ye Xuan coming over, the assistant in charge of issuing Jade Amulets handed him two Jade Amulets. “Here’s two Jade Pendants. You and your beast can each have one. Remember to take good care of them.”

nYe Xuan took the Jade Amulets and thanked him. “Thank you, sir.”

nThen, he inspected the Jade Amulets in his hands.

nThe Jade Talismans weren’t too big. They were almost the size of a walnut.

nThey also had small ropes attached to them, just long enough so the pendant could be worn around the neck.

n

n

nHowever… Lil Wan was still a little smaller than him.

nYe Xuan felt speechless.

nBut his only option was to think of a way to forcibly tie one of the Jade Pendants onto Lil Wan’s back.

nIt looked like Lil Wan was being abused, as she needed to carry a tiny hill that was even bigger than her on her back.

nAt that moment, the students in front of Ye Xuan had already entered the secret realm one after another.

nYe Xuan took a deep breath, hung his Jade Pendant around his neck, and stepped into the colorful cloud of mist.

nThe colorful mist swirled around his body with a refreshing aura.

nAll of a sudden, everything before his eyes became blurry.

n

n

nYe Xuan walked forward curiously.

nAfter about a dozen steps, his eyes suddenly lit up. He finally walked out of the colorful fog and appeared in a wide, open space.

nThe sun was still the same old sun.

nBut as if it was reflected through a void, the light was tinted with all sorts of colors.

nEverything here was different from what was on the Cerulean Planet.

nIn the distance, there were large trees that were verdant in color, but those large trees were all shaped like carved amber crystals.

nThey didn’t look like real trees, but more like large art pieces.

nEverything here was beautiful and magnificent.

nEven when a random stone on the ground was kicked away, it would create a brilliant streak of light through the air.

nAs Ye Xuan looked at his surroundings, one of his classmates, who had stepped into the secret realm before him, said to the others while chuckling, “This is the first time I’ve ever entered a secret realm. I’m so nervous. I really wanna take a sh*t. If I take a sh*t here, do you think I’ll destroy the beauty of this place?”

n“F*ck off!”

n“Disgusting!”

nVoices of condemnation rose around him.

n

n

nHearing this, Ye Xuan was also speechless for a while.

nHe subconsciously distanced himself from that guy.

n“Ye Xuan.”

nAt that moment, Cao Qing, who had spoken a few words to Ye Xuan before, walked over to him and said, “Our group is about to head to the depths now. Are you sure you don’t wanna come with us?”

n“Thanks, but I’ll pass.”

nYe Xuan shook his head and said, “I’ve just awakened my beast Taming Aptitude. For some time, I’ll be staying around this area to find some monsters and hone my fighting skills.”

n“That’s a pretty good choice.”

nCao Qing was absorbed in thought.

nHe felt that these might actually be Ye Xuan’s real thoughts.

nAfter all, Ye Xuan was alone, and he had just only awakened. He vastly overestimated himself if he thought he could compete with them for the four-star Amber Dragon.

n“Alright then, we’ll be leaving.”

nThinking about this, Cao Qing didn’t try to further convince Ye Xuan. He waved his hand and walked deeper into the realm, taking more than a dozen people with him.

n“Ye Xuan, we’re leaving too.”

nSeeing that Cao Qing had departed, some of the others also greeted Ye Xuan.

nThese students from the Beast Taming Class would still have to sit for the college entrance examination two months from now, while Ye Xuan, on the other hand, had already been recruited by Jiangzhou University in advance.

nFor that reason, many were jealous of him.

nAnd it was this feeling of jealously that made some of them feel that they couldn’t get along with Ye Xuan.

nHowever, that was all it was.

nAfter all, Ye Xuan wasn’t a bad person.

nAnd besides, he was very good-looking.

nBecause of this, along with his status as Jiangzhou University’s preparatory student, many of his classmates, especially the girls, really wanted to at least get acquainted with him.

n“Ye Xuan, see ya later. We’re leaving too.”

nSeeing that Ye Xuan wasn’t intending to leave, the three groups of the Beast Taming Class talked to him briefly, and after a short while, they all left.

nYe Xuan already knew that the leaders of the three groups were Cao Qing, Xu Jing, and Qiao Kaijie.

nThese three people, along with all the students in the eleventh grade, already had their own beasts.

nThe reason Cao Qing and Xu Jing were after that Amber Dragon was because they wanted to form a contract with it and make it their own beast after they reached the Dark Iron Level.

nOn the other hand, Qiao Kaijie’s motive was to give it to his elder brother.

nHis elder brother was also a student of the Beast Taming Class.

nHowever, as he was a twelfth grader and was at the Dark Iron Level, he couldn’t enter the Amber Secret Realm.

n“Lil Wan, let’s go.”

nSeeing that all three groups had left, Ye Xuan took a deep breath.

nWith a flip of his hand, he took out a Black Iron Sword from his Beast Ring and held it in his hand.

nUp next would be his and Lil Wan’s training journey.

n“Okay.”

nLil Wan nodded, popped out of Ye Xuan’s pocket, and blinked her eyes as she looked around vigilantly.

n…

nThud thud.

nTaking Lil Wan with him, Ye Xuan cautiously walked around the lush Amber Forest in front of him.

nThe entire Amber Secret Realm was about a hundred miles wide.

nAccording to the map, up ahead was the relatively low-risk Amber Forest.

nHowever, many monsters, such as the Amber Silver Leaf Rats, as well as the Amber Jade Scale Snakes, lived in the forest.

nThese creatures were good at sneak attacks. Hence, Ye Xuan didn’t plan to have his training over there.

nIdeally, he wanted to find a slightly larger monster like the Amber Forest Wolf, which would only attack upfront, for Lil Wan to practice combat with.

nAfter all, this was Lil Wan’s first battle, so it was better to be safe.

n“Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan, look, there’s a tiny lake over there.

n“I think there’s a giant golden toad squatting over there on the big rock.”

nLil Wan hovered more than two meters above Ye Xuan’s head and looked around while blinking. At the same time, she was also helping Ye Xuan be alert to possible dangers.

n“The Amber Golden Toad?”

nYe Xuan’s eyes glittered as he looked towards the direction Lil Wan was pointing. Immediately, he spotted the huge golden toad mounted on the stone.

nAt this moment, the toad, with its belly expanding and contracting repeatedly, had its back facing them as if it was standing guard of something.
