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

Endless power of space was drawn from the void, absorbed by Yunxi, and fused into her five viscera and six organs, four limbs, bones, and even billions of cells.

Every cell in her body reacted, and the thrill of getting stronger made her feel delighted.

At this moment her life form, was shifting from a human body toward a spatial body.

Boom, crack, boom, crack!

Countless tiny space rifts formed around her.

As the power of space in the void was absorbed, the radiation range kept expanding, and the whole Kunpeng Academy—even the entire Modu Academy's space—became fragile.

Space grew weaker, leading to low density; Modu Academy itself seemed to stretch out a bit.

Yunxi's spatial body transformation rate was also steadily increasing.

20%—21%—22%—23%…

On the other side.

Xiao Ye made his way toward the No. 3 Lakeview Villa District.

On the way he ran into most of Kunpeng Academy's prodigy students—from freshmen to seniors, regardless of gender—unexpectedly, as soon as they saw him, they'd stop to greet him, eyes brimming with admiration and longing.

Not just students, but even the teachers, TAs, dean, and even the cleaning auntie he ran across acted like they knew him, and greeted him friendly.

Xiao Ye was totally baffled, and found it strange.

*When did he get this famous?*

It wasn't until a senior prodigy student came over to ask for his autograph that Xiao Ye seized the opportunity to ask what he'd been wondering.

"God Xiao, you're the top ranking of the younger generation in Dragon Country now, our whole academy is obsessed with you."

"So, God Xiao, how's it feel to be number one, pretty sweet, huh?" This chapter was made possible by the MV_LEMPYR community.

Xiao Ye suddenly understood, so that was it.

After scribbling a signature that was really just a couple squiggles, Xiao Ye left.

The senior prodigy took one look and was dumbfounded—it was just two lines? This was supposed to be a signature?

"God Xiao, can you do it again—" But when he looked up, Xiao Ye had already vanished.

Some other prodigy students crowded over, saying, "Dude, that's awesome, you actually got God Xiao's autograph!"

"I'll give you one Grandmaster Crystal Core for that shirt with God Xiao's signature, deal?"

The senior prodigy bolted away like he was running for his life, "Not for sale."

When Xiao Ye got back to Villa 10, he was immediately mobbed by Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi.

Two days later, in absolute Sage state, he set out for the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord's Hall inside the City Lord's Mansion.

City Lord Mu Cheng and a bunch of Mu Family members had been waiting here for a long time.

As Xiao Ye was still nowhere in sight, Mu Qingxue started getting anxious, *Her heart skipped a beat.*

*That guy, could he be mad at me for not treating him well and just skip the Forbidden Land assessment?*

*Honestly, that could happen.*

*After all, from the start they were just pretending to be a couple, and Xiao Ye just wanted the benefits.*

"Crap!" Mu Qingxue suddenly remembered she still hadn't given Xiao Ye the key support spot for the base city that he needed.

She'd focused all her attention on convincing her parents to make the Ye Family's Young Master cancel the engagement, and totally forgot about it!

Immediately, Mu Qingxue brought up the request with Mu Cheng.

Mu Cheng laughed, "A key support slot is nothing, as long as you two pass the assessment and form a contract, I'll fully support Wilderness Base City until they don't need it anymore."

Mu Qingxue stamped her foot and said urgently, "No, I want the spot now, before the Forbidden Land assessment!"

Mu Cheng's face darkened.

Song Xi'Er and the Mu Family Members looked completely shocked.

Mu Cheng snapped, "You haven't even contracted him yet, and you're already siding with outsiders? If you do contract, it'll be even worse."

Mu Qingxue insisted, "I don't care, just say if you'll do it or not."

Mu Cheng relented, "Fine!"

"Then announce it right now!"

"Huh? Xue'Er, are you hopelessly smitten?" Mu Cheng's eyes widened.

Song Xi'Er giggled, "Getting smitten just means their relationship is good, come on, Mu Cheng, get it done."

The other Mu Family Members watched and laughed without saying a word.

…Half an hour later, Xiao Ye finally arrived, and as soon as he entered the City Lord's Hall, a fragrant figure dashed over to him.

He was crashed into—full on.

"Asshole, I thought you weren't coming!" A cheerful, relieved female voice sounded in his arms.

Xiao Ye stroked her head like soothing a kitten, surprised, "Just a few minutes late, what are you freaking out for?"

"Or could it be, you're so eager to form a contract with me?"

"!" Mu Qingxue realized and pushed him away, embarrassed and angry.

Next, under Mu Cheng's arrangements, everyone entered a spatial passageway.

The Mu Family's private secret realm, where the Forbidden Land assessment was held.

The sky was blue, the air fresh, and the sun dazzling.

Everyone stood next to a massive altar. The ancient altar radiated a sense of timeworn history, just looking at it you could tell it had seen a lot.

Xiao Ye covertly took out and crushed a locator-portal item. No one was wary of him, so this went unnoticed.

A spatial beam darted into the void, automatically locking onto the secret realm's weak spot, then exploded, opening a rift almost invisible to the naked eye.

The energy hadn't been fully expended yet and sustained the tiny rift's presence.

In a flower-and-bird-filled wooden house at the heart of the secret realm, a silver-haired old man lounging in a chair and humming a tune opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing in them.

He kept all his aura hidden, but every move he made would still make anyone sense mortal danger.

The silver-haired old man curled his lips, "Interesting, someone actually dares to lay eyes on the Dark Night Realm."

"It's the first case in thousands of years."

"I really want to see who's got the balls."

As it turned out, this secret realm was called the Dark Night Realm; that tiny rift at its weak point was instantly discovered by its master.

Following the spatial beam's trail, the silver-haired old man sent his spiritual sense to the family altar, locking onto Xiao Ye as the target.

"This kid, is he the Contractor for the family descendant?"

"No, they haven't contracted yet."

The silver-haired old man dismissed the killing intent, deciding to wait and see.

If the kid failed the assessment, he'd finish him and his conspirators personally.

Mu Cheng was activating the altar, pricked his finger, and dropped a drip of blood.

The ancient weathered altar immediately erupted with vitality, unleashing mighty and unfathomable power.

Under Mu Cheng's direction, Mu Qingxue and Xiao Ye stood at the center of the altar.

The altar seemed to be sentient, automatically lowering two rainbows of light, covering both Mu Qingxue and Xiao Ye.

Everyone watched curiously, wondering how good the pair's talents would be.

Even among different SSS-level Talents and Templates, the quality varied—a small gap didn't matter much, but a large one could be twice as strong as an average SSS-level talent.

As the testing progressed, the silver-haired old man's expression changed. The whole altar began trembling for no apparent reason, as if pushed to the limit, about to collapse!
