Chapter 415 - After Two Months, the Difference Was Even Greater

Chapter 415: After Two Months, the Difference Was Even Greater

Chu Yunfan looked at the Bloodmane Apes that had disappeared without a trace and had an epiphany. In the textbooks, it was written that although these monsters were much more powerful than ordinary beasts, they were, at the end of the day, just a group of beasts. Under the leadership of an alpha, they were fearless of death. They would dare to charge forward even in the face of a human-made metal storm. But without leadership, they would disappear in seconds.

These beasts looked terrifying, but their weaknesses were obvious!

These were experiences that only came after a life-or-death battle. As the saying went, “what’s written on paper always feels shallow.” Only action mattered!

Those inside the cave had sensed the situation outside. Soon, everyone emerged. It was none other than Sha Peng and the other three. They were all in a miserable state. Even the armor they wore had cracks in them. Fresh blood could be seen. One could imagine how intense the battle had been. If they had been defeated, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

They saw Chu Yunfan and the ten-foot-tall Thunder Winged Beast beside him. They were stunned. If they were ordinary students, they might not have recognized this creature. But they were the elite students among all the elite students in Federation University. How could they not recognize the Thunder Winged Beast?

Their first reaction was to be on guard, but they quickly discovered that the Thunder Winged Beast was just standing quietly beside Chu Yunfan.

No matter how stupid they were, they understood that Chu Yunfan had subdued this Thunder Winged Beast. They did not know how he had accomplished this and were extremely excited just thinking about it.

The Thunder Winged Beast had the potential to grow to the Divine Ability Stage. In other words, it would not be long before Chu Yunfan would have a monster with divine abilities as his companion. At that time, even if Chu Yunfan had not reached that level, his status would be the same as his companion.

At Federation University, there was a beast taming department, so they were familiar with beast taming. However, disciples of that department were only able to capture an Innate or Acquired level monster. And those were considered the cream of the crop. As for monsters with divine abilities? That was impossible!

Beasts of this level were proud and arrogant. Even as a cub, it was impossible for it to submit to humans. Thus, they had no idea how Chu Yunfan had done it. But no matter what, with the accompaniment of a Thunder Winged Beast, Chu Yunfan’s combat strength had certainly more than doubled.

“Are you guys all right?” Chu Yunfan was the first to speak, breaking the deadlock.

“We’re fine, we’re fine. Fortunately, you came just in time, Captain Chu. To be honest, we were almost out of ammunition and rations.”

Sha Peng revealed a bitter smile. It was not that they could not afford to buy resupplying medicine. But even though they had the means to replenish their stocks, time was still a factor. In the face of such an intense battle, they simply did not have the time to recover. This was the most terrifying thing.

......

In terms of strength, they were not afraid, but they were afraid of taking turns to fight. Not everyone had Chu Yunfan’s strength and could forge a bloody path. Even if they joined forces, it was unlikely that they would be able to clear a bloody path under the siege of the Bloodmane Ape alphas.

The difference in strength between the two sides was too great.

Chu Yunfan looked at his teammates. Each of them had a mellow aura, forming a small circle. This was a clear sign that they had entered the Innate Stage. Sha Peng was the first to step into the peak of the first-level Innate Stage.

But after some thought, there was nothing strange about this. After all, it had been two months since Chu Yunfan went into seclusion. Two months ago, his teammates were already at the peak of the Energy Refinement Stage. It was not strange for them to have stepped into the Innate Stage. But although their cultivation levels were still about the same as Chu Yunfan’s, their combat strength had increased by a step. The difference was like the difference between Heaven and Earth.

The four had joined hands to deal with the two Bloodmane Ape alphas, but little by little, they had been forced to retreat. But when Chu Yunfan arrived, he had been able to defeat the two alphas with his bare hands. The strength of both sides had already fallen to a certain extent.

Sha Peng and the others noticed this because they saw the carcasses of the Bloodmane Apes on the ground. Among them, there was even the corpse of the Bloodmane Ape alphas.

Those were fierce beasts that had left them helpless. In front of Chu Yunfan, they were nothing. The huge gap between them could be seen in this. In their hearts, they understood that the gap between them and their captain had widened even further.

“How did you guys get cornered here by these Bloodmane Apes?” Chu Yunfan asked.

These four were at the Innate Stage. It was very unlikely that they could beat those Bloodmane Apes. However, it would have been easy for them to break out of the encirclement and escape. Other than the Bloodmane Ape alphas, the other Bloodmane Apes would not have been able to keep up with their speed.

However, they had been cornered here. This was, in itself, an impossibility.

“We were careless. We didn’t expect these beasts to be so vengeful. They got the other Bloodmane Apes to join them and caught us off guard. If you hadn’t come to our rescue, we would’ve been annihilated here today,” Ke Rui said.

“Where’s Mr. Jeang?” Chu Yunfan asked.

If their instructor, Jeang Yuanbin, had been here, even if there were twice as many Bloodmane Apes, it would be useless. He could kill them all by himself. He was far stronger than his students.

“Mr. Jeang had something to do and left. Originally, with our strength, there wouldn’t have been any accidents. If things didn’t work out, we could break out of the encirclement. But we overestimated ourselves. In the end, those beasts got the better of us. Don’t you think it’s infuriating?!” Sha Peng said.

The others had ugly expressions on their faces. No matter what they said today, they had been schemed against and trapped here. They had even planned to ask the army for support if things had gone awry.

Since they were elite students of Federation University, they had a way to contact the army. The army would not just let them be killed by monsters like this.

After all, if these students continued to grow, it would be better for everyone all around. To lose an elite figure who had the hope of stepping into the Acquired Stage would be a huge loss for society.

Suddenly, before anyone could speak further, a shrill alarm came from each of their terminals.
