The insects in my house are dragons.

Chapter 46, Level 6!

"grumble!"

After the Mechanical Wolf I in the fourth level was smashed, Kongkong quickly grabbed a scattered metal gear.

Its eyes darted around furtively, trying to see if there would be any problems when it encountered similar mechanical wolves or dogs again without that gear.

Yun Che noticed Kong Kong's little actions, but he didn't stop him because he was also a little curious about how Kong Kong would react.

The mechanical wolf's remains were once again "swallowed" by Jianghuai Tower.

But the notification sound indicating successful completion of the level never rang.

"grumble?"

Kongkong looked at Yun Che, holding a gear in her hand.

After waiting a while longer, with the time on the wall constantly ticking, confirming that it really didn't count as a successful challenge, Yun Che signaled Kong Kong to throw the gear to the ground.

"Chirp..." Kongkong pouted, thinking she could keep a souvenir.

After the gear made contact with the ground, a small opening appeared in the ground, "swallowing" the gear.

Only then did the mechanical prompt sound.

[Level 4 cleared! Proceed to Level 5?]

Yun Che glanced at Kong Kong, who was still full of energy, and said, "Continue."

The gate on the wall opened again, and this time a large wasp-like mechanical creature emerged. Its stinger, gleaming with a cold light, was intimidating, and its rapidly flapping wings were barely visible.

[Name]: Mechanical Bee Type II

[Attribute]: Mechanical

[Racial Rank]: High-level Transcendent

[Strength Level]: Low-level Transcendent

[Racial Skills]: Fiery Strike, Insect Chirp, Piercing Bee Sting

Is the fifth level just a low-level extraordinary strength level?

Yun Che thought that the opponents in the mutation stage were all opponents in the late mutation stage, with the only difference being their race level and skill proficiency.

Unexpectedly, an opponent with a low level of extraordinary strength appeared.

Does that mean that everyone on the list has completed a battle against a higher-level opponent?

So many people?

But then I thought about it again.

Also.

Jianghuai University is a renowned institution of higher learning. After so many years of operation, it would be a disgrace to the university if it didn't have students capable of fighting beyond their level.

The 50 people only represent the maximum number of students on the list; it does not mean that only 50 students can fight beyond their level.

Moreover, this doesn't even include those students who are too lazy to climb the rankings during the mutation period.

Yun Che quickly squatted down, gently stroked Kong Kong's back, and removed the forced forging device.

It's best not to be overconfident when facing opponents of lower-level extraordinary strength.

He deliberately asked Dr. Niu about it yesterday.

If Kongkong uses dragon-attribute skills at school or inside Jianghuai Tower, will it have any negative consequences?

Dr. Niu's answer was straightforward: "Can you hide it forever?"

However, considering Yun Che's cautious nature, Dr. Niu still stated that there were not many people who had the right to watch the challenges inside Jianghuai Tower, and that he would make arrangements in advance.

This put Yun Che at ease.

hum-

The mechanical bee vibrated its wings, emitting a trembling sound, and charged forward with its sharp, cold stinger.

"Kong Kong, charge and dodge, Dragon Tail!" Yun Che waved his hand.

"grumble!!"

After removing the forced forging device, Kongkong felt incredibly relaxed. Already excited, it became even more agitated, unleashing its full power and leaping out, its body glowing white.

Snap—

The sudden change in speed caught the mechanical bee off guard.

But next second.

The air conditioner swerved, causing a secondary acceleration due to the impact.

When it reappeared, it was already beside the mechanical bee.

Dragon-attribute energy instantly enveloped the tail, and the illusory dragon tail lashed out powerfully.

boom! ! !

The immense power, the impact of a master-level charge, plus the power of a master-level dragon tail...

Without a doubt, this was a fatal blow!

The mechanical bee didn't even land; it was disintegrated in mid-air, its parts scattered everywhere.

"grumble!!"

Kongkong seized the opportunity and grabbed another gear.

Ding ding ding—

The scattered parts were "swallowed" once again.

However, because the gears were missing, the warning sound still did not appear.

"Empty." Yun Che gestured with his eyes.

Clearly, the little guy's capture of another gear was part of Yun Che's plan.

It landed empty-handed, played with the gears for a while, and then threw it away.

However, just as the gear was about to hit the ground, about to fall into the dark, open hole...

Snap—

A thread was ejected, retracting the gear.

[Jianghuai Tower]: ?

"Chirp?" Kong Kong suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet shaking.

For the first time, Yun Che, who had activated the power of Eternal Life, clearly felt a wisp of life.

Jianghuai Tower is truly "alive"!

Yun Che was deeply shaken.

"Kongkong, it's gone." Seeing the ground shaking more and more, Yun Che hurriedly said.

Now that the conjecture has been verified, there's no need to continue "teasing" Jianghuai Tower, lest it cause any trouble.

Upon hearing this, Kong Kong quickly threw away the gear.

[Level 5 cleared! Proceed to Level 6?]

The fifth level only had opponents with low-level extraordinary strength, what will the sixth level be like?

"grumble!"

Ah Che, keep going! Keep going!

Kongkong called out impatiently.

The mechanical bee in the fifth level didn't give it any real enjoyment.

After thinking for a moment, Yun Che decided to continue.

Anyway, if we really can't win, we can always choose to give up.

For credits!

For the mission rewards!

Let's give it a shot!

Yun Che gave the order before the mechanical beings of the sixth level appeared.

"Empty Sky, Dragon Dance!"

In the previous instances, he waited until he identified his opponent before taking action, but the mechanical bees in the fifth level forced him to be cautious, so he took the initiative for the first time.

"grumble!!"

Kongkong let out a soft call, and the dragon attribute energy within its body immediately surged. Its body gradually became hot, and wisps of white steam rose up.

Bang, bang, bang—

Heavy footsteps approached.

Upon seeing the mechanical body emerge and the information on the wall, even though Yun Che was prepared, he couldn't help but blurt out:

"Holy crap..."

...

Outside Jianghuai Tower, Qu Tingxue and Cao Siyue, who had completed the entrance test, had already walked out.

Qu Tingxue's ranking remained at forty-second place.

Cao Siyue, who had originally planned to give everyone a surprise, had a dark expression on her face the whole time after learning about her ranking.

"Why haven't they come out yet?"

"Qu Tingxue and Cao Siyue have both come out. Did they faint inside?"

"Perhaps they're trying out the sixth level..."

Even the members of the Beast Taming Class 3 had arrived, but Yun Che hadn't left Jianghuai Tower yet, which made many people start discussing it.

"Seriously, are you sure this screen isn't displaying something wrong? A green velvet worm, for real?"

"It's not that I look down on the mollusc, but my high school classmate tamed one, and its fighting ability... it couldn't beat me even without a stick!"

"They said the opponent in the fifth level is a low-level transcendent mechanical bee. How advanced would the Green Velvet Worm have to be to have any chance of defeating it?"

While people are paying attention to Yun Che's ranking, more and more people are also paying attention to Kong Kong.

This has changed many people's understanding of the green velvet caterpillar as a pet.

No matter how unwilling I am to believe it, Jianghuai Tower has never made a mistake in all these years.

They had to believe that someone had actually made it into the top fifty with just a green velvet worm in its late-stage mutation stage.

Undoubtedly, this was an even greater blow to Cao Siyue, who was already arrogant.

My own Thundermane Wolf actually lost to a Green Velvet?

"Still not out? Could it be... we're about to pass the sixth level?"

Once you get past the sixth level, no matter how long it takes, you can directly jump to 16th place.

"Impossible," Cao Siyue couldn't help but exclaim.

It wasn't that he was angry or jealous, but only those who had tried it could understand how big the gap was between the fifth and sixth levels.

"Who is the opponent in the sixth level?" someone asked.

Those who have passed the fifth level will probably try the sixth level, right?

Cao Siyue and Qu Tingxue exchanged a glance, and finally Cao Siyue spoke in a deep voice:

"Mechanical Tiger, strength level... mid-level extraordinary!"

"A mid-level extraordinary being?!"

The students present looked at each other in disbelief, unable to believe that the sixth level was so difficult.

How can a pet beast in the late stage of mutation be used to fight against an opponent with medium-level extraordinary strength?
