These Magical Beasts were a step too late, but on the contrary, they were fortunate enough to avoid being struck by Flame Inferno. Currently, their eyes were filled with fear and horror as they stood outside the sea of fire, hesitant to step forward.
The smell of blood from the Titanic Dragon-Ape made them restless, but the sea of fire before their eyes frightened them. What exactly should they do? Should they follow their instincts and continue to rampage, or leave with their tails in between their legs and safeguard their lives?
This was an important question!
The Magical Beasts sank into indecision.
“Not leaving yet? That’s great!”
Meng Lei licked his lips. He rode the magic carpet to the area above the Magical Beasts and cast another round of Flame Inferno.
Boom, boom, boom!
A fireball started floating in mid-air, and a sea of fire began to spread. Then, these Magical Beasts also met with tragedy!
The sea of fire engulfed them. As the great fire set them ablaze, their visibility range also became hindered, and they couldn’t escape for a while there. Then, one by one, the Gods-Slaying Spear impaled them to death, and their souls returned to hell.
With that, the Magical Beasts in the farther distance became badly frightened. Each and every one of them was terrified out of their wits, and they didn’t dare to hesitate or harbor any hope of lucking out anymore. Every single one of them fled with their tails in between their legs!
“They’re pretty quick at fleeing, huh?”
Meng Lei licked his lips, not quite having had his fill of fun yet.
Ol’ Amos reemerged, somewhat dissatisfied. “Don’t use the Gods-Slaying Spear so often in the future. Otherwise, there won’t be any more meaning to your training.”
“Understood!”
Meng Lei nodded lightly, the picture of someone that had learned his lesson. However, he secretly disagreed.
My purpose in coming to Magical Beast Forest isn’t just for training. Earning gold coins is my number one key task instead!
Of course I’ll have to hunt as many Magical Beasts as I can!
Although the sea of fire had engulfed the Magical Beasts just now, there was no way all of them would be annihilated. In a situation like that, was he supposed to just watch as they escaped?

Ahead was a blazing sea of fire!
To the back was a gushing waterfall!
A sight as unusual as that appearing in the same place was honestly a wondrous spectacle. However, the Fire Cloud Mercenaries were in no mood to admire the scenery because they were currently busy with dismembering the Titanic Dragon-Ape.
Every one of them worked conscientiously and diligently, lest they accidentally showed even the slightest bit of disrespect.
What? Resentment?
They didn’t dare to!
Just how terrifyingly powerful must one be in order to wipe out almost 100 high-grade Magical Beasts in under five minutes? Who’d dare to harbor any resentment?
They longed only to finish dismembering the Titanic Dragon-Ape as soon as possible and send Meng Lei away after that. They didn’t have the leisure to think about anything else.
In the cave elsewhere, Meng Lei was currently playing with the baby Titanic Dragon-Ape. After the contract was formed, a mysterious connection had appeared between Meng Lei and the little fellow. Just like that, it had taken Meng Lei as its closest companion.
Meng Lei rubbed the little fellow’s head and remarked with a laugh, “Seeing how you’re pitch-black all over, how about I name you Mastiff1?”
The little fellow looked completely lost as it blinked in an adorably silly manner. Black lines filled Ol’ Amos’ forehead, however, and he remarked, “Mastiff? Can’t you give it a nicer-sounding name?”
“How about Husky1?”
“What’s a Husky?”
“It’s also a type of dog!”
“...”
Ol’ Amos was rendered totally speechless. “What sort of names are those? Your taste in names is terrible. It’s always either a cat or a dog. Can’t you be a little less of a good-for-nothing?”
“Names are just a way of referring to things, isn’t it? Is there a need to be so serious about it?” Meng Lei was none too bothered. He tilted his head to the side and suggested, “How about Teddy1? What do you think of that name?”
“Teddy? Teddy! Yeah, sounds pretty good!” Ol’ Amos thought for a moment and nodded. Then, he asked, “What’s the meaning behind the name?”
“Teddy is also a kind of... Cough, divine beast! The kind that can destroy the heavens and earth. Its destructiveness and all that are comparable to a Colossal Dragon!” replied Meng Lei as he held back his laughter.
“A divine beast? Is there a divine beast like that?”
Ol’ Amos was rather dubious. It just felt rather strange, somehow.
“Teddy is a kind of divine beast from my hometown. Not a lot of people know of it, so it’s normal for you to not have heard of it before!”
Meng Lei laughed and settled on the name. “Alright, let’s call it Teddy. It just so happens that the name of this little fellow’s species starts with ‘T’ too, so Teddy is a very appropriate choice of name.”
“Something feels rather off...”
At this point, the captain walked in and interrupted their idle chat. “Sir, the Titanic Dragon-Ape has been fully dismembered. May I know what we should do with it?”
“What to do with it? Bring it away, of course!”
Meng Lei left the cave and started to store the dismembered Titanic Dragon-Ape part by part into his spatial magic devices. However, they ran out of space as he was halfway through.
Meng Lei had six spatial magic devices of various sizes in total, and all of them
