Roar!
Howl!
“Team One, block it!
“Team Two, follow up with magic attacks!
“Team Three, launch an ambush!”
Before they had even gotten near, they could already hear intense sounds of battle from a far distance away. Trees were breaking, the ground was exploding, Magical Beasts were roaring, and people were constantly shouting. The battle was unusually intense!
“Hahaha, from the look of it, some people are besieging Magical Beasts!” Ol’ Amos stroked his beard and, with an enthusiastic expression on his face, asked, “Brat, based on the sound, can you tell what kind of Magical Beast the unlucky fellow currently under siege is?”
Meng Lei rolled his eyes. “How am I supposed to tell from the sound?!”
“You actually have the cheek to call yourself a Magician when you can’t even tell something like that based on the sound?”
Ol’ Amos side-eyed Meng Lei. Then, as he twisted his beard, he said with a smile, “A qualified Magician needs to be knowledgeable and multi-talented. Not only must they master their spells, but they must also be versed in other kinds of knowledge!
“Listen closely to the sound—it resembles a dragon’s roar, yet it’s also like an ape’s cry. It sounds like a drumstick banging against a large drum, yet it also carries a rich and heavy whizzing of something hurtling through the air. Evidently, this is a Magical Beast from the Dragon-Ape family!
“Now, look at the scale of the tremors in the ground and how rich and loud the beast cries are. This should be one of the physically-largest species of Dragon-Ape Magical Beasts. If I’m not wrong, the unlucky fellow currently under siege is probably the strongest and most valiant Magical Beast from the ape family on the continent—the Titanic Dragon-Ape!”
“The Titanic Dragon-Ape?” Meng Lei frowned and asked, “What grade of Magical Beast is that?”
“What? You don’t even know about the Titanic Dragon-Ape?”
Ol’ Amos turned dissatisfied at once. He chastised him and said, “As a student of my Fire Dragon Magic Academy, foundational subjects like Comprehensive Continental History, Complete Collection of Magical Beasts, etc. are compulsory classes!
“You actually don’t even know about a high-grade Magical Beast as famous as the Titanic Dragon-Ape? How did you pass the Complete Collection of Magical Beasts class?”
Complete Collection of Magical Beasts? I’ve never taken that class before, alright?!
“Ol’ President, Complete Collection of Magical Beasts is an elective now. It’s a subject meant to give away credits to those poor-performing students that can’t accumulate enough credits. I’ve never taken that class before at all!”
Meng Lei shrugged as he replied with a helpless expression.
“An elective?”
Ol’ Amos was a little stunned. Then, he flew into a rage. “Preposterous! How preposterous! An important foundational subject like Complete Collection of Magical Beasts has actually become an elective now? Is there something wrong with the brain of the current leader of the academy?!”
Meng Lei shook his head inwardly. However, he lowered the altitude at which the magic carpet was flying at and entered the dense and dimly-lit forest. Then, he crept over carefully!
A cliff several hundred meters tall appeared in front of him. A white veil-like waterfall crashed down from the top of the cliff, producing a deafening boom. It seriously had the elegance and grace of the poem “Straight down three thousand feet the white torrents run; descending from the Nine Heavens like the Milky Way1“!
At the bottom of the waterfall was an enormous pool of water. The pool water flowed rapidly, and mists circled and drifted around it. Together with the verdant trees and shrubbery in the surroundings, the scenery was exceptionally alluring!
Yet Meng Lei didn’t have the luxury of admiring the scenery at the moment because a hair-raising scene was currently taking place on the sandy shore right before the pool—dozens of fully-armed adventurers were currently besieging a gigantic beast!
The behemoth had a King Kong-like body. Its muscles intertwined around each other and were incredibly strong and sturdy. Yet it had the head, sharp claws, as well as wings of a Colossal Dragon!
It was completely the fusion of a Colossal Dragon and King Kong!
“That’s the Titanic Dragon-Ape?”
Meng Lei gazed at the behemoth in front of him that was over ten-meters-tall and emanating a horrifying aura. Fear and trepidation welled up in him. The aura of the monster in front of him was simply too horrifying. It was in a completely different class from a Seventh-Grade Magical Beast!
“How strange! The Titanic Dragon-Ape is a Ninth-Grade Magical Beast. Why would it show up in a place like this? Oh, I get it now, so that’s the reason why. No wonder!”

Roar!
The four to five-stories-tall Titanic Dragon-Ape let out roar after roar. Its arms that contained Herculean strength delivered punch after punch as it launched frenzied attacks on the human adventurers.
Its razor-like claws were capable of cleaving mountains and severing rocks and were exceptionally sharp. Its roars produced roiling soundwaves as they shook the heavens and earth. It gave off an extremely horrifying and fearsome might throughout its being, as though a savage beast from primitive times.
Compared to it, ferocious tigers and lions were practically cute, little babies.
It was currently in an extremely perilous situation, however.
Dozens of adventurers had it surrounded on all sides. More than a dozen Warriors had formed a sturdy wall of defense and were holding off the Titanic Dragon-Ape’s attacks head-on. Each and every one of them was strong and valiant. They moved like lightning and leaped as high as birds in flight, jumping up and down and moving about incredibly swiftly.
Judging from their speed and intensity of attacks, they were at least Sixth-Grade or Seventh-Grade Warriors!
Behind these Warriors were five to six Magicians dressed in magician robes. With magic staffs in their hands, they chanted spell incantations and cast an unending stream of spells.
