Chapter 1065: Chapter 1065: Being Asked To Summon Their Contracted Beasts

Ji Yuan nodded faintly, taking a slow sip of his tea.

"In that case..." Ji Yuan’s sharp gaze subtly shifted toward the outer entrance of the valley. "...we will be receiving some rather loud guests shortly."

The very moment those words left his mouth, several rapid streaks of light approached from outside the Inscriber Division. Leading the frantic group was Principal Qiao Wenhao himself, closely accompanied by several breathless elders and senior teachers of the academy.

However, before Principal Qiao Wenhao even had the tactical chance to open his mouth and greet them, another overwhelming, suffocating pressure suddenly descended upon the school from high above.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Dozens of powerful, imposing figures shattered the upper cloud layer, descending onto the ground outside the Inscriber Division one after another. They did not care about manners. Their immense cultivation auras spread outward across the campus without the slightest shred of courtesy or restraint.

"Where is the Beast King?!" A booming, thunderous voice echoed violently throughout the entire mountain range. "Tianlong School, don’t you dare think you can hide it from the world!"

The sheer, tremendous spiritual force behind the shout made the surrounding air vibrate violently, rattling the windows of the division buildings.

Bai Xifeng immediately winced, covering both of her ears with her hands in annoyance. ’Damn... why on earth is he shouting so loudly? Do these old men not know how to speak normally?’ She frowned deeply, peering through the bamboo trees toward the newcomers.

A massive group of imposing, heavily armoured experts and grand elders from the continent’s peak sects slowly marched forward. Every single one of them radiated an extraordinary, oppressive aura that clearly and vastly surpassed any of the standard academy teachers present.

Sensing the immense danger and heavy political weight behind the visitors’ sudden arrival, Principal Qiao Wenhao immediately suppressed the rising wave of anxiety within his chest and stepped forward. He took a deep breath, smoothing over his features before respectfully cupping his hands in a traditional, formal greeting.

"Your Excellencies... welcome to Tianlong School." Principal Qiao greeted politely.

His voice remained remarkably calm despite the suffocating tension weighing heavily on the entire courtyard, steadily bracing himself for the impending political storm.

"Where is the Beast King?" One of the peak experts demanded instantly, completely cutting him off without the slightest intention of exchanging polite pleasantries.

Ji Yuan calmly stepped forward from the shadows of the gazebo and cupped his hands toward the powerhouse crowd.

"Your Excellencies, the Beast King has already departed from this place." Ji Yuan replied, his even tone completely devoid of fear.

"Left?" One of the sect elders sneered, his eyes narrowing to dangerous slits. "Are you trying to play us for fools?"

"I bet one of you has already secretly contracted the Beast King and hidden it away." Another grand expert chimed in coldly, his spiritual pressure flaring. "You should know what is best for yourselves and hand the Beast King over before things get ugly."

"Your Excellencies, the Beast King truly has already left the area. We have absolutely no logical reason to deceive you." Ji Yuan answered smoothly, without displaying the slightest hint of panic under their intense scrutiny.

"And why exactly should we believe a single word that comes out of your mouth?" The leading expert mocked, stepping closer as his aura rippled through the bamboo forest.

"Your Excellencies, before arriving at these coordinates, you must have clearly sensed the overwhelming presence of the three Divine Beasts." Ji Yuan continued, his voice steady and clinical. "In truth, it was one of those very Divine Beasts that explicitly requested I erect the barrier protecting the Beast King. At that time, only my student and I were trapped inside the perimeter. The three Divine Beasts effectively entrusted us with protecting the Beast King while it underwent its volatile breakthrough. Meanwhile, they remained stationed outside and ruthlessly intercepted everyone who attempted to breach the line. If you observed the surrounding terrain carefully before entering our gates, you should have already noticed the countless fresh bloodstains scattered around."

The gathered experts silently exchanged wary glances.

In truth, they had already seen the carnage and smelled the metallic tang of fresh blood long before stepping foot into the Inscriber Division. It was far too much blood to belong to only a handful of casual defenders. Judging by the overwhelming, heavy scent of death still lingering stubbornly in the air, at least a thousand powerful cultivators had likely perished on these grounds within a matter of hours.

"But how exactly did the Beast King leave?" One of the younger experts questioned suspiciously, cross-examining his story. "After successfully completing such a massive heavenly breakthrough, its physical body should have been extremely weak and exhausted. There is absolutely no way it could have escaped this mountain range that quickly on its own."

"It was one of those very Divine Beasts that physically took the Beast King away into hiding." Ji Yuan answered without a single fraction of hesitation. "As for where they chose to journey afterwards, we simply do not know."

The leading expert narrowed his sharp eyes, processing the information, before suddenly shifting his piercing, predatory gaze directly toward Ji Yuan’s soul space.

"I can clearly sense that you already possess a contracted beast. "And her as well." His eyes then slid across the grass, locking heavily onto Bai Xifeng. He pointed a thick finger directly at Bai Xifeng. "Both of you, summon your contracted beasts immediately."

Bai Xifeng did not miss a beat. She immediately played the role of an obedient, terrified young student and gave a submissive nod.

"Cerberus."

"Bai Yun."

Bai Xifeng and Ji Yuan called out their respective commands almost simultaneously.
