Chapter 74: Task Completed, Meeting the Great Venerable Powerhouses!

Nangong Siyao's consciousness playfully teased Xiao Ye, "I can see everything the Golden Dragon sees too, Xiao Ye. Do you like this kind of scene? I can do it too."

Xiao Ye felt a bit awkward. He couldn't help it; Instructor Liu Ya was like a target, constantly drawing his attention like an arrow.

And after all, what man wouldn't be interested in watching?

The cold mechanical voice of the system echoed in Xiao Ye's ear.

**[Congratulations to the host for completing the task: Entering the Top Ten of Kunpeng Combat Academy's Elite List]**

**[Task Reward: Two Creation-type Rule Fragment Crystals]**

"?"

This was quite sudden.

Sudden enough to surprise Xiao Ye a bit.

Why did he enter the top ten of the Elite List? Was it perhaps due to the slaughter of the wolf pack and several Grandmaster-level beasts? That must be it.

Adding these two, he now had 16 Creation-type, 5 Dark-type, one Gold-type, one Fire-type, and one Ice-type Rule Fragment Crystal.

It's a case of feast or famine; Xiao Ye was getting a bit tired of the abundance of Creation-type crystals, yet they kept coming!

Creation-type: Are you eating pancakes, being so picky!

Having achieved his goal, Xiao Ye and his group of four began their return journey.

The Sacred Two-tailed White Fox and the Three-toed Golden Dragon reverted from their summoned beast forms and followed behind Cat-eared Liu Ya towards the Real Combat Training Base's exit.

Meanwhile, in the base's main camp: within the ancient castles, the three vice-commanders seized the opportunity and said urgently:

"Let's go see the teacher and meet our junior brothers and sisters."

"Indeed, we must get to know the young and talented juniors."

Then, the three vice-commanders headed straight for the base exit.

At the iron gate,

They arrived before Xiao Ye's group of four.

However, they overheard some infuriating words from the gate guards.

"Hey, do you think that widow Liu Ya dresses so provocatively on purpose to tempt us?"

"Yeah, she doesn't seem serious at all, wearing so little, with her whole leg exposed."

"Rumor has it she's the secret lover of Diamond Supreme."

"Could be, what woman doesn't see a man for a hundred years!"

The guards chatted carelessly until a cold voice came from behind:

"Do you want to spend a night with her, to enjoy her beauty?"

"No kidding, who wouldn't want that!" "Exactly, she has so many male disciples who admire her." "Yeah, don't you want to?"

The five guards turned to see,

"Whoa!" They were startled and quickly showed respect:

"Greetings, Vice Commanders!" "Greetings, Vice Commanders!"

The three muscular vice-commanders stood there with dark expressions, anger in their eyes as they reprimanded:

"Are you too idle, talking nonsense about others while on duty!"

"Do you know that Liu Ya is our teacher?"

"What? The Vice Commander's teacher!?" A look of fear appeared on the guards' faces, and their hearts filled with dread.

The three vice-commanders scolded, "Your wages and bonuses for this year are deducted, and tomorrow, report to the customs defense line."

"Hmph! Seems like being a guard is too leisurely for you; go fight sea beasts on the front line. If your performance falls short even once in ten years, stay at the customs defense line for life."

The guards' faces turned to despair and misery, wailing:

"No, Vice Commander, we know we were wrong."

"The customs defense line is deadly; we don't want to go."

"Please, dock us two years' salary, no, even five years, but don't send us to the customs defense line."

The customs defense line is the national border, constantly attacked by sea beast tides, with many warriors sacrificing their lives daily.

The three vice-commanders snorted, insisting on their decision, "Report to the customs defense line tomorrow, or you'll be expelled from Magic City."

They couldn't tolerate anyone disrespecting their revered teacher or calling her promiscuous, claiming she was someone's mistress.

As students, they couldn't stand it.

Though they too harbored a bit of admiration for Liu Ya, having secretly watched her wash her feet before, just innocently rolling up her pants.

Those crystal-clear feet, just looking at them made you want to bite.

But they wouldn't allow anyone to speak lowly of Liu Ya behind her back!

"Hey, the teacher is here?"

One vice-commander's eyes lit up upon seeing a familiar figure approaching through the layered iron gates.

The five guards then saw the once imposing vice-commanders instantly turn respectful.

"Greetings, Teacher!" "Greetings, Teacher!" "Teacher, long time no see, you're as beautiful as ever!"

Liu Ya's eyes flashed with surprise, astonished to encounter her students from eighty years ago here.

She trained a few disciples every four years.

"Hello," Liu Ya nodded her elegant chin, smiling in response.

Typically, students only see their teachers in class, and any questions about study or cultivation can only be asked during lessons.

Unlike typical students, disciples receive special attention, with personalized guidance on study and cultivation issues, and frequent interaction in daily life, with teachers providing substantial help.

Like family elders, helping their disciples.

Moreover, Liu Ya charged no fees for taking disciples, treating everyone equally regardless of family background.

This fairness and dedication earned her immense respect and reverence from all her disciples!

"Hehe, are these the teacher's new disciples? They look handsome and extraordinary at first glance!"

"These two junior sisters are so pretty; junior brother is lucky."

Seeing Xiao Ye and the others' bewildered looks, Liu Ya chuckled, "Just call them senior brothers."

Liu Ya's smile, like flowers blooming, left everything else in the shade.

The five guards and three vice-commanders were mesmerized.

Xiao Ye, accustomed to being around two beautiful school flowers every day, showed no embarrassment.

"Hello, Senior Brothers."

"Gulp!" One vice-commander swallowed, then hugged Xiao Ye's shoulder, laughing, "Junior Brother, doesn't killing beasts feel great?"

"It sure does." With each Grandmaster-level beast slain, yielding a Rule Fragment Crystal, Xiao Ye indeed felt great.

The vice-commander laughed heartily, "Then come by often; within hundreds of kilometers of this base, we know the type of any beast. Come find us directly, and we'll show you around."

"Thank you very much!" Xiao Ye's eyes lit up.

He speculated that the type of crystal extracted by the template adjuster was related to the beast's attributes. In the future, if he wanted a specific type of crystal, he could just inquire about the beast's attributes.

Liu Ya smiled as she introduced, "These three are now vice-commanders, at the Great Venerable level. The commander usually only handles important events; these three senior brothers manage the Real Combat Training Base."

"Xiao Ye, you can come here directly in the future without needing to apply through the class director."
