"Chen Chu...Chen Chu."

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Luo Fei looked at Chen Chu who was distracted in front of her and couldn't help but call him twice.

"Ah...what's wrong?" Chen Chu withdrew some of his thoughts.

Luo Fei tucked the hair hanging down from her forehead behind her ears, pointed at the wall clock, and said softly: "It's already six o'clock, I want to go back, do you want to go together?"

It's already six o'clock. The time spent raging in the river has passed so quickly. Chen Chu nodded with emotion: "Okay."

The two stood up, put the borrowed books back to their original places and walked out of the building.

During this period of time, most of the students who were immersed in cultivation also returned home one after another, walking out in groups of three or four to discuss the ranking competition in the next few days.

The sun was setting, and the sunlight no longer had the heat it had in the afternoon.

A breeze blew through the girl's hair, bringing a faint scent of shampoo.

Chen Chu turned his head, looked at that beautiful profile, and asked casually: "Luo Fei, are you going to participate in the competition next Monday?"

Luo Fei shook her head: "My skills are special and I don't have much combat power in the early stage, so I don't plan to participate."

She always said that the technique she practiced was special, so Chen Chu couldn't help but ask curiously, "What technique did you practice? You didn't have much combat power in the early stage."

The girl pursed her lips slightly and smiled faintly: "This question will be kept secret. You will know after the second grade trial."

Chen Chu was helpless: "...Okay."

"As for you, you should participate in this ranking competition." Luo Fei asked back.

"Yes, I will participate."

Chen Chu nodded: "I feel that I have made some breakthroughs in my training in the past few days, so I plan to participate in the ranking competition to compete with those classmates and accumulate combat experience."

Luo Fei didn't think much about this reason.

In her opinion, both Chen Chu and she were practicing low-level skills, and their initial talents were average among this batch of freshmen, so they participated in the ranking competition just to join in the fun.

After all, there were more than a hundred ordinary "geniuses" who had built their foundations within a week and practiced advanced techniques.

Whether in terms of talent or the level of cultivation techniques, there is a huge gap between Chen Chu and those people, and there is no chance for him to enter the top 50.

For the rest of the journey, the two walked and chatted like ordinary friends.

However, Luo Fei noticed that Chen Chu would occasionally become distracted while talking. It was probably because he had been practicing too hard during this period and had not had enough rest.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little admiration.

It doesn’t matter if you have little talent. As long as you are willing to practice hard and make steady progress, you will one day reach heights that ordinary people can’t imagine.

…

The next day, Friday, the first year of high school began a day of end-of-month exams. Many students looked bitter as they held their papers.

There is no way. They have been focusing on cultivation during this period of time. Who has the time to read and study?

The exam was over in a hurry and I didn’t have to go to school the next day, Saturday.

Chen Chu did not go to school to practice as usual, but came to a busy commercial street, ready to practice in the noisy environment.

Today he was wearing a white T-shirt, grey trousers and white flat shoes, his clothes were simple and casual.

Coupled with his tall stature, delicate and handsome features and clean face, as soon as he found a chair under the shade of a tree and sat down, many people looked at him.

Especially those girls who were wearing cool clothes, when passing by this sunny and handsome boy, they would stop intentionally or unintentionally and pretend to look at the surrounding shops.

It's a pity that although some of these beauties are quite beautiful and have sexy figures.

But after the boy sat down, he closed his eyes and rested. He could not see the scenery at all. Some girls who wanted to approach him and talk to him stopped when they saw this.

Without being disturbed by the outside world, as soon as Chen Chu closed his eyes and concentrated, he once again entered a special state built by his keen five senses.

The sharp hearing filters out useless and chaotic sounds, the sense of smell distinguishes the people and objects around, and the tactile hairs all over the body sense the flow of air in space...

After gradually becoming familiar with this state, Chen Chu devoted part of his attention to it.

For the past month, he has been practicing multitasking.

Although he is still unable to control both bodies completely freely, he can already devote some of his attention to controlling the heavy armored beast while his main body is doing things.

The river with its surging waves is hundreds of meters wide and over forty meters deep at its deepest point. It breeds countless aquatic creatures, and many large fish have slightly mutated under the influence of the environment.

The water near the river bank was turbid. A creature about 80 centimeters long, with thick limbs and covered in heavy armor crawled out of the cave and swam towards the deep water.

Only two days after being released, the heavily-armored clone had grown ten centimeters due to the abundance of food. It was now even larger in size, had stronger defense, and had even more exaggerated strength.

At the same time, the evolution value also increases at a rate of 5 points per day, which is much faster than in the past.

Of course, this is inseparable from Chen Chu's diligence in controlling the heavy armored beast's feeding whenever he has time every day, including getting up in the middle of the night to eat.

Soon, Chen Chu controlled the heavy armored beast to a water area more than 20 meters deep. The vision here was cloudy and he could only vaguely see a range of five or six meters.

Before it swam far, a huge figure appeared in the sight of the heavy armored beast.

It was a three-meter-long fish with a long crocodile mouth. Its body was covered with thick scales and its back had bone spurs growing on it, making it look ferocious and hideous.

Judging from its appearance, this should be a ferocious fish that has mutated from an alligator gar.

When the heavy armored beast discovered it, it also noticed this small creature of average size, and immediately rushed over with a swing of its tail, ready to have a bite.

For the mutant alligator gar that is more than three meters long and as thick as a human body, the heavy armored beast that is only eighty centimeters long is just a small guy and can be bitten off in one bite.

The heavy-armored beast calmly watched the mutated alligator gar that was rushing towards it, and watched with indifference as its wide-open crocodile mouth tore through the water, creating a series of splashes.

Bang!

Without the heavy armored beast dodging, the mutant alligator gar's big mouth bit hard on its abdomen and back, and a tearing force erupted under the powerful kinetic energy.

In the past, the alligator gar had always charged at high speed, using kinetic energy and sharp teeth to tear its prey in two, but today... it was like biting into alloy steel.

The mutant alligator gar's sharp teeth broke directly, Gulu Gulu! ! Feeling the pain, the mutant alligator gar became even more violent.

The huge bite force firmly gripped the heavy armored beast, and its huge body twisted wildly in the water, trying to tear the hard prey in its mouth into pieces.

But even if the mutant alligator peacock was exhausted, the heavily armored beast in its mouth remained unharmed.

Even compared to the back, the abdomen, where the outer armor is weaker, only has a few white marks. This is the horror of defensive talent.

It looks like the alligator-gargoyle is biting the back and abdomen of the heavy armored beast, but in fact, when it bursts out with strength to bite, all the strength is spread throughout the body by the integrated exoskeleton structure.

In addition, the thousand-layer pancake-like internal structure can weaken the pressure on the body layer by layer, and the strength of the outer armor increases as the body grows.

These combined together created a heavily armored beast with terrifying defense.

After a long time of failure in tearing it off, the exhausted alligator beast had to let go of the heavy armor beast.

At this moment, the heavy armored beast tested its defense, swung its tail, turned its body, burst out with muscle power, and slammed its claws on its head.

Bang! The water splashed under the heavy blow, and the head of the mutant crocodile gar collapsed directly, blood mixed with white substances spurted out, and it was hammered to death by the heavy armored beast's claws.

After killing the mutant fish, the heavy armored beast bit the mutant alligator gar with its big mouth and tore off a large piece of flesh and blood from its back and swallowed it. Blood foamed everywhere while chewing, and it was very ferocious.
