Chapter 46: Born for Close Combat
In the resplendent underground palace, countless small monsters suddenly appeared from all directions.
Compared to the fifth level, the number of small monsters in this final level reached a staggering nearly ten thousand!
The most peculiar thing was...
In front of these zombie minions were dozens of ghostly figures.
These ghostly figures were all dressed in the robes of ancient ministers, indicating they were subordinates buried with the tyrant corpse.
Indeed...
It was fitting that this BOSS was called the 'Tyrant Corpse.'
Such actions truly deserved the word 'tyrannical.'
Qin Fan scrutinized the surrounding monsters with interest, discerning the attributes and levels of the elite leaders, which were definitely not inferior to the giant stitched zombies.

...
No wonder this was a BOSS level!
These elite monsters alone were enough to pose significant trouble.
Especially with nearly ten thousand zombie minions, it was impossible for an ordinary team to clear this level.
Only the prodigies from the provincial capital might be able to clear such a difficult level by teaming up.
Perhaps King Yan thought the vocational exams were too easy each year, thus deliberately creating such a difficult challenge.
But Qin Fan knew that with such high-difficulty exams, there must be unique ways to clear them.
After all, the current monsters were impossible for an ordinary team to defeat.
Even for the prodigies from the provincial capital, it would be difficult to handle solo.
So Qin Fan speculated there must be mechanisms to lower the difficulty.
Or mechanisms to prevent the Tyrant Wraith from summoning minions.
Of course...
Even if Qin Fan knew there were such mechanisms, he was too lazy to look for them now.
The reason was simple...
He intended to kill all the minions directly!
The experience gained from killing monsters would be tallied together after clearing the level.
In such a scenario, Qin Fan didn't want to waste any monster's experience.
Besides...
He had Xiaojiu with him!
With a dragon in the vocational exam dungeon, what else did he need to consider?
Just plow through it all!
Xiaojiu lay on Qin Fan's shoulder, indifferent to the horde of zombie monsters and the Tyrant Corpse. It didn't even bother to lift an eyelid, just humming by its master's side.
Su Rou was quite scared, not expecting the final level to present such an army.
But she managed to stay calm, at least not hindering Qin Fan.
"Xiaojiu, this scene of a thousand troops is perfect for you to have some fun!"
"Come, try your Sky-Piercing Power form and see if these monsters can survive your charge!"
Qin Fan commanded with a smile.
"Ang----!!"
Xiaojiu never disobeyed its master's orders.
With their contract signed, Xiaojiu viewed its master Qin Fan as its everything.
Anyone who dared harm its master would be torn apart by its sharp claws.
Receiving the order, Xiaojiu immediately displayed its Sky-Piercing Power form!
Previously, the maze was too dark for people to see Xiaojiu's true form in this state.
But now...
In the resplendent underground palace, the luxurious buildings shone brightly.
Illuminating Xiaojiu's Sky-Piercing Power form completely!
Buzz!!
Xiaojiu's body expanded rapidly!
Originally the size of a cat, it grew to a hundred meters tall, standing in the center of the underground palace square, towering like a mountain!
Its crimson scales seemed like molten lava that had cooled and carbonized.
The carbonized scales resembled thick metallic armor, showcasing an extremely domineering and unparalleled top-tier defense!
In this state, Xiaojiu lost all its cuteness and exuded an aura of a god of destruction!
Even its claws turned ashen black.
Overall, it looked like a steel-armored giant dragon!
"Roar!!"
The deafening dragon roar echoed through the palace, making Su Rou cover her ears.
When everyone outside saw Xiaojiu's Sky-Piercing Power form on screen...
It completely shattered their worldview!
Is this a dragon!?
This is a dragon!!
Qin Fan was about to crush everything in this level with sheer force!
While others would first think of finding mechanisms to weaken the monsters upon seeing such a terrifying level...
Qin Fan didn't bother!
Trickery?
Looking for mechanisms?
Sorry, I don't need that!
"Wow! This hundred-meter-tall form is more shocking than the monsters!"
"Yes! Can anyone estimate the attributes of this dragon?"
As this was said, all principals and teachers, including the two bigwigs from Anning City's Education Bureau, turned to Liu Bin in the center.
Because he was the only one among them who had undergone a third transformation.
Meaning his experience and insight surpassed theirs.
"The dragon's strength attribute is estimated to be nearly 4000 points, judging by the immense power in its limbs!"
"And its defense is top-tier!"
"This form, with its black-gold armor-like appearance, seems born for close combat!"
As Liu Bin finished speaking.
Hiss!!
Everyone gasped.
