Chapter 48: Annual Appraisal
After the stun technique worked, Ahan took a few steps forward, grabbed the little beast's neck, and lifted it up.
The effect of the vertigo technique was not very good, and as soon as the little beast grabbed it in its hand, it struggled violently. I wanted to breathe out a breath of fire when I turned around, but its stock had long since been depleted, and there was no flame at all except for a puff of scorching smoke with sparks.
The little beast purred warning at the base of its throat, its scales upside down, its sharp claws popping out of its pads and dancing swiftly through the air to grab his arm.
But its claws are so short that they can't reach it.
After struggling for a while, the little beast finally showed a look of despair, and a wail came out of its mouth.
Ahan smiled secretly in his heart, contemplating the storm space in his heart, and soon entered it. He threw the beast onto the island and watched the beast's reaction.
The little beast fell to the ground, and its mouth let out a roar of gold and jade, but its body fell backwards again and again, and its whole body trembled. But soon it turned around, and the chaotic rumbling storm brought it an incomparably dangerous aura, especially the pieces of glass-like shards, which made it feel a kind of fear that penetrated deep into its bone marrow.
It went backwards again, less than ten meters, and then turned its head again, and there was still the chaotic storm there.
There was a dangerous aura everywhere here, and the terrifying storm seemed to be ready to overturn and cut it to pieces at any moment.
Eventually, it shrank motionless in the center of the island, and even Ahan's existence was temporarily forgotten by it.
Ahan didn't know how to tame animals, but he had a dog in his previous life. In his impression, taming a beast should be similar to raising a pet, as long as you feed it often and play with it more often, you will be tame.
There was also half a smoked brindle lizard in the space, and Ahan tore a piece with his hand and threw it at the little beast, which was startled and took a few steps back, with an alert look on his face, and a warning sound came from his throat.
He didn't pay any attention to the jerky, and he didn't even look at it.
Ahan teased for a while, and found that the little beast was extremely vigilant about what he was doing, and at last he was not interested, and he stopped caring about him. Anyway, when you're hungry, you'll eat.
But for five days in a row, the little beast did not eat at all, whether it was the cold dry and hard meat, or the roasted butter and tender lizard meat, it did not move at all. Didn't even take a sip of water.
It had been lying in the center of the island, sluggish, with a deep hatred and vigilance in its eyes, and occasionally let out a terrible cry. If it continues like this, it will not be far from death.
Seeing it like this, Ahan's heart was unbearable for a while, and finally shook his head and sighed. When he went out, he didn't wait for the little beast to react, grabbed the little beast's neck, and then out of the storm space, he put the little beast on the ground and let it leave on its own.
The little beast seemed to have a trace of doubt in its eyes, and looked back at Ahan vigilantly, seeing that there was nothing unusual, it tentatively walked forward a few steps, and saw that Ahan did not chase after it, so it quickly ran towards the cave, and soon disappeared.
Seeing the little beast leave, Yahan was stunned in his heart, with the talent and bloodline of the little beast, when he grew up, he was definitely a powerful spirit beast, but he had no chance with him.
He looked at the cave, and there was a faint expectation in his heart, fantasizing that the little beast would come back again, but after waiting for ten minutes, the little beast was never visible, and he gave up this thought.
For the next few days, he didn't see the little beast again, and he went to the magma lake to see it, but he didn't find any trace of it. After this lesson, it seems to have left the place.
And the next annual assessment is about to start, and he gradually forgets about the little beast.
The annual assessment, whether for the inner disciples or the outer disciples, is an extremely important matter, especially for the outer disciples, which means that one in ten people will be expelled from the temple.
Early in the morning, after washing up with his three junior disciples, Ahan walked towards a path leading to the top of the mountain. That path was the place leading to the Six Parts Hall, and for these ordinary disciples, they couldn't enter it at will at all.
The path was full of people, and these disciples had serious expressions, with a hint of nervousness and anxiety between their eyebrows.
Ahan and the other four people crowded into the crowd, as if they were merging into the droplets of the river, and moved forward with the procession.
As you climb up, the temperature gradually decreases, and snow has appeared on both sides of the trail.
After walking like this for more than an hour, the temperature gradually warmed up, and it was now close to the top of the mountain.
The mountain is a huge active volcano, and the high temperature emitted from the top of the volcano makes it impossible for the surrounding snow to form. But for some reason, the temple built the denomination here. Strangely enough, there has never been a record of volcano eruptions.
After walking for another half an hour, a huge square made of volcanic rock jumped into view. Ahead, there is a continuous palace perched on a steep hillside. The palace is cloudy, looming,
Ahan was shocked in his heart, and for a moment he seemed to have a feeling of standing in the clouds, and the surrounding palace was like a fairyland, such a scene, how could he have seen it.
"Boom! ......" sounded like a bell, faintly echoing in the square.
"Senior Brother Yahan, hurry up and stand in line, Uncle Liubu Hall is coming! If they cause dissatisfaction, they will be expelled from the temple on the spot. Wu Meng reminded.
Ahan nodded.
There was a commotion throughout the square, and all the people moved quickly. In less than a few seconds, two huge phalanxes appeared on the square, and there was silence around them, and no one made a sound.
After a while, in front of the square, six black dots faintly appeared, and the black dots quickly enlarged, they were six middle-aged men wearing clothes of different colors. They didn't take a single step, they crossed a distance of more than ten meters, and in just a few breaths, they were already close in front of them.
The six of them jumped lightly, jumped onto the high platform in front of the square, and then sat down on the six carved stone seats that had already been placed there. One of them, Ahan was a little familiar, the man in Tsing Yi who had brought him to the temple.
The other five people, each wearing blue, yellow, white, red, and black robes, should represent different halls.
After the arrival of the six people, the atmosphere of the whole square was even more solemn, dignified, and silent.
