Animal-eared Girl Era: Start by Forming a Contract with an SSS-Class School Belle

Jie Gangtai turned his head and instantly saw a handsome young man and a beautiful woman behind him.

This guy looked absurdly young, and was frankly attractive; what surprised him even more was that the girl with the terrifying fruit, in terms of looks, wasn't at all inferior to his own Moonlight Goddess, Mu Qingxue.

"So it's you two!" Jie Gangtai naturally knew these two, the trainees brought by the Kunpeng Sovereign.

He waved his hand, "Don't make trouble, go do whatever you need to do! Don't get in our way."

Xiao Ye pointed at the cluster of rocks, "And that's your way of handling things?"

Xiao Ye had just arrived on this island when he witnessed Jie Gangtai yelling, yet the alligator turtle demon beasts seemed to find this human too weak to bother with, not even giving him a glance.

Jie Gangtai's face darkened.

*Getting snubbed by the alligator turtles—by the beasts, not even worth their attention—and these two saw it?!*

*Social suicide!*

"Ahem! That was just a mistake just now, let me try again and I'll definitely lure them out this time." Jie Gangtai said, a bit embarrassed.

"Anyway, you two better get lost!"

Suddenly he became impatient, his tone dropping low.

*He finally got a chance to be alone with Mu Qingxue for an adventure in the Secret Realm, and Jie Gangtai didn't want it ruined.*

Nangong Siyao rolled her eyes, "It's not like Alligator Turtle Island is yours, who are you to tell us to get lost?"

Jie Gangtai's face darkened further, "If I tell you to leave, then leave—don't be ungrateful!"

At that moment, Mu Qingxue suddenly leaped over from behind a massive boulder. Her long, fair legs cleared the stone in a few strides, and she was standing before the group in a matter of seconds. She said,

"Since they're staying, just let them stay."

"It doesn't interfere with our objective."

Jie Gangtai panicked, "But..."

Mu Qingxue's voice turned icy, "That's that."

Jie Gangtai choked on his words, his mouth opening and shutting, but he didn't say anything further.

Xiao Ye and his companion studied Mu Qingxue carefully. *She really had bright eyes and perfect teeth, beauty that could put even the moon itself to shame, luminous fair skin, and three thousand strands of black hair cascading down her waist. She was absolutely on par with Cheng Bingxi—truly top-tier stunning.*

Xiao Ye stepped forward, reaching out to introduce himself, "I'm Xiao Ye, freshman at Kunpeng Academy."

Out of courtesy, Mu Qingxue reached out and shook his hand briefly. "Mu Qingxue, daughter of the City Lord."

Her hand was incredibly soft, like cotton, almost boneless. Xiao Ye had a pretty good impression of her, but what Mu Qingxue said next made his face fall.

Mu Qingxue's eyes glimmered with mischief. She glanced at him arrogantly and said,

"A freshman, huh? So, just a little kid. You might be a low-level Great Grandmaster at such a young age, not bad, but the alligator turtle demon beast group is made up of Great Venerable Realm demon beasts. I hope you're extra careful and smash your teleportation item the moment things go sideways—otherwise, you might end up dead."

Seeing another guy touch his Moonlight Goddess's hand, Jie Gangtai felt a surge of displeasure and echoed, "Yeah, no matter what, I'm still a Grandmaster Peak. Hope you guys don't get yourselves killed out here."

Xiao Ye couldn't be bothered to waste more words. He immediately unleashed the pressure inherited from the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon. K&e.e&p^ us going# by re.a&di%n-g on M@V_@L&EM_#PYR$.^

Weakened version: Supreme Dragon Might!

Boom! A loud rumble.

When the pressure exploded out, the air seemed to collapse, pounding against the rocky cluster.

Two seconds passed, and not a single alligator turtle emerged from the rocks.

"Hahahaha!" Jie Gangtai clutched his stomach and laughed, eyes full of mockery, "When I tried, at least one alligator turtle showed up. But you? Not a fart."

Mu Qingxue's lips twitched in a smirk.

*Xiao Ye felt speechless—what's the rush?*

Weakened Supreme Dragon Might at full power!

With another earth-shattering boom, the air collapsed once more, but this time, it felt like the supreme roar of a dragon reverberated through it.

"Roooar!!"

The dragon's roar pierced stone, ripping through space itself, perfectly delivered to the ears of every sleeping alligator turtle.

Supreme Dragon Might, which dominated king beast and dragon-type bloodlines—even a weakened version wielded by Xiao Ye carried immense power.

!!!

One by one, the slumbering alligator turtles jolted awake, their pupils contracting in terror, each of them suddenly gripped by a primal fear. Their faces twisted into shocked and horrified looks.

"This aura, it's just like the Emperor's, the one that vanished a hundred years ago!"

"The only one who could suppress and shake our king beast bloodline is the Emperor!"

"This is great, the Emperor has returned!"

"After more than a hundred years, the Emperor is finally back!"

"Everyone up, out of the caves to greet the Emperor's return!"

The alligator turtle demon beast group poured out in a flood.

They charged out from the rock cluster in a mighty surge.

In just a short while, the previously empty rock formation suddenly teemed with a dense mass of alligator turtle demon beasts, with realms high and low. Every single one of them gazed toward Xiao Ye with eyes filled with awe and worship.

"Hahaha... uh!!!" Jie Gangtai, still laughing, suddenly froze, choked on his own spit, and broke into a violent fit of coughing.

He coughed until he could barely catch his breath; after a long moment, he finally managed to lift a trembling finger toward the rocks, face full of disbelief, and said,

"How is that possible?!"

"What the hell, so many alligator turtle demon beasts—did every last one come out?!"

Mu Qingxue looked equally stunned.

Then her face changed dramatically and her voice grew grave, "Everyone, run! Hundreds of Great Venerable and Grandmaster alligator turtles—if they charge us, we'll be crushed!"

She and Jie Gangtai flew into hiding behind a giant boulder.

Jie Gangtai patted his chest in fright, "Thank goodness Xue'Er warned me in time, or we'd be turtle food by now."

Mu Qingxue sighed, "Those two students just provoked the alligator turtle demon beast group—all I can say is, they're probably screwed!"

They both looked toward the rocky area.

*Facing so many Great Venerable and Grandmaster demon beasts, Xiao Ye and Nangong Siyao showed not a hint of fear—on the contrary, their eyes were sparkling with excitement and anticipation.*

They exchanged a glance, each seeing the delight in the other's gaze.

"King beast bloodline!"

They both sensed it: nearly eighty percent of the alligator turtle demon beast group had the king beast bloodline!

"Roar!" Tapping into Contractual Power, a dazzling golden light radiated out, and a massive Five-Clawed Golden Dragon appeared in the sky.

Holy Might Domain was unleashed.

Full-powered, complete Supreme Dragon Might innate skill—unleashed!

With a thunderous roar, just as the alligator turtle demon beast group was puzzling over how the Emperor's pressure was coming off a human, an unimaginably vast aura descended from the sky, slamming down on them, suppressing their king beast bloodline.

The alligator turtle demon beasts' faces changed dramatically, their king beast bloodlines shuddered, and, unable to withstand the pressure, started to convulse violently, then faded to gray, becoming eerily inert as though sealed away.

With their king beast bloodlines restricted, the effect spread through their entire bodies, sapping their energy and Power of Realm too.

By that point, whether Great Venerable or Grandmaster, none of them could channel even the tiniest trace of their king beast bloodline. Their entire energy reserves and Power of Realm sank into a quagmire, nearly impossible to access.

A domain is forged by gathering and transforming the Power of Realm—if you can't channel that, no domain can take shape.

So right now, all they had left was their raw physical combat power—they couldn't even fly anymore.
