As Zhou Xuan opened the door to Room 9, Song Fan indeed saw a large black snake inside, motionless.
He clicked his tongue and said, "This thing is male, right? Was it cuckolded? Its head is bald, how could it be so confused."
He seemed to be sighing, looking at Wu Ju and saying, "Well, to live a good life, one must wear a bit of green on their head. Why bother? Don't you think so?"
"I don't like green," Wu Ju said, walking deeper and finding a Gold Two-star beast to practice on.
"I don't like green either," Song Fan said as he came to the door of Room 10. Looking inside, he saw a beast covered in green fur.
He clearly saw that the beast was wearing a pumpkin-shaped hat, also green.
"Damn," he was instantly speechless.
Zhou Xuan walked over and introduced, "It's also a Gold One-star."
Inside was a tree monkey, already a demon, as tall as an adult man, with sharp and pointed claws, very adept at climbing and jumping.
The tree monkey is a branch of the monkey family, living in deep forests. During its evolution, its fur turned green, blending with the green forest, increasing its chances of survival.
Yesterday, Zhou Xuan fed it, including a large pumpkin.
It was quite playful, eating the flesh of the pumpkin and leaving the shell, which it wore on its head.
The tree monkey is known for being mischievous and cunning.
Half a year ago, it and a group of monkeys invaded a small town. Wherever they went, chickens and dogs died, and children went missing.
Later, people from the Demon Suppression Academy passed by, killed the other monkey demons, and captured it to study.
The tree monkey, seeing the two people, immediately bared its teeth, scratched its ears, and screamed wildly at them.
Then, it took off the green pumpkin shell on its head and threw it at them.
It grinned evilly, as if saying, "Here's a green hat for you."
Not only that, it turned around, stuck out its buttocks, and slapped it with its monkey hands: "Come and hit me."
That was a provocative gesture!
Song Fan, after shattering the green pumpkin shell, his face changed: "This damn beast, I'm going to tear it apart."
Saying that, he strode in.
"Be careful," Zhou Xuan warned.
After Song Fan entered, he immediately activated his Star Soul, which was a Silver Moon Wolf.
The Silver Moon Wolf, over two meters long, let out a howl and immediately engaged in a fierce battle with the tree monkey.
Although he had just advanced to Gold One-star, he had the guidance of a senior instructor and had already stabilized his realm, with a good grasp of his power.
The tree monkey had advanced to Gold One-star a long time ago and had a very skilled control of its power.
It unleashed a green force to attack, and the battle with the Silver Moon Wolf was intense.
The battle was fierce, causing significant vibrations.
Zhou Xuan temporarily did not leave and watched the battle from outside the door.
He clearly saw that the Silver Moon Wolf did not injure the tree monkey but was instead toyed with by the more agile tree monkey, most of its attacks missing.
It seemed that Song Fan, relying solely on controlling the Silver Moon Wolf, could not defeat the tree monkey.
Later, Song Fan himself also joined in, teaming up with the Silver Moon Wolf to attack the tree monkey, stabilizing the situation.
Zhou Xuan quietly watched the battle, learning from the combat experience.
Practice is the only criterion for testing truth.
No matter how one trains, the final test is always in actual combat.
Having only techniques without combat skills and the ability to adapt is useless.
Song Fan and the tree monkey fought for nearly ten minutes, both sustaining injuries, but neither had the upper hand.
In fact, the tree monkey, with its high agility, still had the upper hand.
It hung upside down on the smooth wall, giving Song Fan the middle finger, as if saying, "You little punk, I, King Jiji, was already a demon when you weren't even born."
Song Fan's face was dark; this beast was too arrogant.
"Take the knife," Zhou Xuan threw the knife leaning against the door inside.
With a weapon, Song Fan could deal more powerful damage, immediately slashing: "I'm going to cut you to pieces."
The battle between man and beast became even more intense.
Zhou Xuan, watching, felt that Song Fan would eventually defeat the tree monkey but would also pay a significant price.
He did not wait for the battle to end and left.
He went to another battlefield to watch Wu Ju's battle with a lion demon.
Wu Ju's realm was Gold Two-star, and the lion demon was also Gold Two-star. Both had the same realm and were full of momentum.
Wu Ju's Star Soul was a brute elephant, immensely powerful.
Thus, he was known for his strength, far surpassing others of the same rank.
In addition, he practiced a very powerful boxing technique called the Vajra Fist.
The Vajra Fist, combined with the brute elephant's strength, could not only split rocks but also had the potential to move mountains.
At that moment, a brute elephant appeared behind him, and he used the Vajra Fist, his strength reaching its peak, forcing the large lion demon to retreat step by step.
Even the ferocious lion demon could not withstand Wu Ju's punches.
This lion demon had once been the ruler of the grasslands, controlling an area of several dozen miles, with a harem of eight lionesses, occasionally preying on passing demon hunters for a snack, living a very comfortable life.
Even now, it sometimes missed those days of having lionesses on both sides.
That was the peak of its life as a lion!
Unfortunately, everything had become a distant memory. Now, it was suppressed in a dark, lightless cage, feeling extremely frustrated.
Now, suffering a significant loss at Wu Ju's hands, it felt even more bitter.
Cornered, it opened its mouth and let out a roar to the sky.
This roar was a release of its frustration over the past days.
This was a special ability of the lion demon clan, the Lion Roar, as powerful as the Tiger Roar of the tiger clan.
The surrounding walls amplified its sound.
The angry roar was deafening, as if it could cause mountains to collapse and the earth to split.
Facing the ferocious Lion Roar, even Wu Ju did not dare to be careless, immediately activating the brute elephant to block it.
In the next moment, the brute elephant was shattered, and he was thrown back to the door, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
This demonstrated the extraordinary nature of the lion demon's innate skill.
Zhou Xuan, standing outside the door, also heard the sound but was unharmed.
The door was guarded by a demon-suppressing stone, preventing the sound waves from spreading outside.
This allowed him to safely feed the various demons. Otherwise, his life would be in danger.
In the corner, the male lion, panting heavily, shouted, "I once ruled the grasslands and had a harem of eight lionesses. How dare you bully me!"
Wu Ju wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his fighting spirit even stronger.
He stepped forward and said, "I have killed tigers and lions, and I enjoy fighting cornered beasts. Suppressing you doesn't even require me to drink."
He carried a wine gourd on his back, filled with strong liquor.
It was unknown what material the wine gourd was made of, as it could withstand powerful forces without breaking.
Next, he engaged in another fierce battle with the male lion.
Zhou Xuan was studying Wu Ju's Vajra Fist, so he watched very carefully.
He could see that Wu Ju's combat strength was indeed very strong, and he became even stronger when facing a powerful opponent, fighting more fiercely.
In the end, even the male lion fell to Wu Ju's Vajra Fist.
Zhou Xuan watched Wu Ju leave, lost in thought.
He had the Vajra Indestructible Body, while Wu Ju had the Vajra Fist. It was as if he cultivated his entire body, while Wu Ju only cultivated his fists.
Suddenly, he had an epiphany and immediately began to cultivate the Vajra Indestructible Body.
His comprehension, though not the best, was still very high, which was one of the main reasons he could work at the Demon Suppression Academy.
After a few hours, Zhou Xuan emitted a faint golden light, his momentum significantly increased.
This was a manifestation of his initial understanding of the Vajra Indestructible Body!
He walked towards the Gold Two-star male lion.
The male lion, after a fierce battle with Wu Ju, had just completed its rest, and its strength was almost fully restored.
Seeing Zhou Xuan, it was enraged.
"Even a human who is not even Gold-level wants to bully me? How dare you!" It roared, gathering a torrent of demonic power, charging at Zhou Xuan like a cannonball.
Zhou Xuan, unhurried, formed a fist with his right hand and struck out.
With a dull thud, the massive male lion was sent flying like a broken kite.
It fell to the ground and did not get up again.
Zhou Xuan looked at his fist and muttered, "Wu Ju is tough, but I'm tougher!"
