Since it was David Jones’s first time entering the Buddha Realm to participate in the assessment, he had to start from the first level.

After deducting a hundred credits, a faintly glowing spatial passage appeared, soon exploding in the air with an imperceptible psychic domination, attempting to sweep over David Jones’s body.

Seeing this, Rainbow’s eyes flickered with light as her unrivaled confusion power instantly condensed into a defensive shield to ward off any harm.

However, the psychic domination ignored the shielding ability of the guard and penetrated directly through it.

Sensing this strange feeling of being spied upon, David Jones’s brow furrowed.

Although he didn’t detect any malice from it, he still felt a bit repulsed by this act of snooping.

“Hum!”

As David Jones was about to operate the Taikoo Black Dragon Chart to protect his psychic world, an indifferent voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

“Bone age and soul are nineteen years old, Arcane Star Cultivation is Class IV, later stage, awakened innate talent is Purple Spirit Eye. Excellent talent allows for higher difficulty Buddha Inheritance Trials to be unlocked. Please choose whether to start the trial.”

Upon hearing this indifferent voice, David Jones was slightly taken aback.

“What is the Buddha Inheritance Trial?”

Sensing David Jones’s confusion, the strange voice spoke again.

“The Buddha Inheritance Trial has nine levels, and only challengers with excellent talent can unlock it.

Challengers will receive rewards much more generous than those from the Buddha Realm challenges upon passing each level. The more trial levels they pass, the richer the rewards.

The first challenger to pass all nine levels perfectly will obtain control over the Tower of Refining Beasts.”

“What number am I among those who have started the trial?” David Jones asked.

As even his teacher hadn’t informed him of these Inheritance Trials beforehand, it implied that there were very few Beast Trainers rated as excellent talents by the beast refining tower.

“You are the five thousand two hundred and fiftieth challenger to start the Buddha Inheritance Trial in tens of thousands of years, currently ranked five thousand two hundred and fiftieth. The highest-ranked challenger in trial history is the Origin Emperor (Level 8).”

David Jones’s expression stiffened, as this was completely different from what he had imagined.

He initially thought he was one in a million, lucky enough to encounter the legendary chance to inherit the Tower of Refining Beasts.

However, it seemed like this opportunity did not discriminate at all, and any beast taming genius could have it.

Realizing this, David Jones couldn’t help but exclaim, “Even the Origin Emperor was stuck at the ninth level?”

No wonder the Tower of Refining Beasts has not found a suitable master till now. If even the Origin Emperor was eliminated, how many Beast Trainers in the world are truly worthy of the Beast Refining Tower’s recognition?

With this thought, David Jones shook his head, speechless.

The historical ranking displayed on the light screen had names in both bright and dark text. Among the darkened names were ones that David Jones was very familiar with, basically all famous Beast Trainers throughout the history of the Flowery Kingdom. In the still brightly lit names, there were also a few names he recognized.

Inheritance Trial historical top ranker: the Origin Emperor (Level 8)

Ranked three hundred and thirty-seventh: Audrey Harvey (Level 7)

Ranked four hundred and fiftieth: Lilith Hoyle (Level 7)

Ranked three thousand three hundred and thirty-third: Bella Wanton (Level 4)

Ranked three thousand four hundred and fifty-fifth: Rudolf Sherwood (Level 4)

Ranked three thousand eight hundred and sixty-fourth: Fred Hoyle (Level 3)

Goodness, Audrey’s ranking is even above the Teacher’s, no wonder he didn’t reveal anything.

“Can the number of inheritance trial passes replace the level of Buddha Realm challenge and enter the Buddha Realm ranking?” David Jones continued to ask.

“Yes, because the difficulty level of the inheritance trial is much higher than the Buddha Realm challenge, the number of Buddha Realm levels replaced will automatically increase by two.”

Hearing this reply, David Jones immediately understood the ranking rules.

If he wanted to suppress the exchange students of Flowery Kingdom’s Big Five, he didn’t need to engage in the Buddha Realm challenge. He could achieve it through the inheritance trial.

If he could pass the ninth level of the inheritance trial, the Buddha Realm ranking displayed in the outer Beast Refining Tower would surpass the Origin Emperor’s tenth level, revealing an unprecedented eleventh level.

“Please choose whether to start the inheritance trial or return to the Buddha Realm challenge.”

“Begin the inheritance trial,” said David Jones, excitement flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, he didn’t care about rewards or the Beast Refining Tower.

If he could participate in the trial and suppress the current students of Flowery Kingdom’s Big Five, or even surpass the Origin Emperor, the Beast Taming Genius who was the closest to God Spirit in history, and obtain the title of Excellent Beast Tamer, he would forge an unstoppable momentum in the psychic world. Achieving a legendary status in the future would be easy, and he might even be able to go further and explore the secrets of immortality.

“The trial begins. Please enter the passage of portal!” A neutral voice followed.

Upon hearing this, David glanced at his pet and strode into the spatial passage.

“First round of the trial: Kill the ancient Ferocious Beast cub – Nine-Headed Lizardant”

As David Jones digested the information and opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a dazzling vein of Arcane Gold surrounded by drifting yellow sand in the wind.

The brown and yellow hills and the exposed surface revealed flawless Arcane Crystal mines.

“Such a rich Rock type Arcane Force.”

Feeling the majestic flow of Arcane Force in the world, David Jones instinctively looked towards the powerful existence swallowing Arcane Force in the distance.

It was a terrifying beast nearly ten meters long, covered in a thick layer of reddish-brown copper that was extremely eye-catching under the sun.

Every time the nine tails wrapped in copper crystals swayed slightly, a sharp aura of gold energy was swallowed up from the exposed Arcane Gold veins in the ground.

Under the enormous overshadowing tails, there were eight smaller identically- shaped lion heads surrounding the hideous-looking main lion head. Each of the lion heads had an extremely sharp golden horn on top.

Even just lying quietly on the ground asleep, this terrifying Nine-Headed Lizardant exuded a soul-stirring sense of Domination that people dared not approach.

“Pet Name: Nine-Headed Lizardant”

“Pet Type: Gold, Rock, Dragon”

“Species Level: Emperor Legend”

“Grade: Class III lower-level”

“Species Skill: Unavoidable Protector, Dragon Roar, Shattering Roar, Burst Strike, Legend Zone”

“Pet Profile”: A famous emperor heteromorphic beast in ancient times, possessing an unbreakable defense and crushing claws, it is also known as a Ferocious Lizardant because of its preference for swallowing gold, jade, and humans.

“The first level of the inheritance trial is facing the Class III lower-level Nine- Headed Lizardant. How did they pass it!” David Jones’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Although the Nine-Headed Lizardant’s strength was only Class III lower-level, the normal Arcane Grade value it emitted was extremely high, enough to tear apart King-level beasts below Class VI (excluding Class VI).

Moreover, with the existence of the Legend Zone, even Fred Hoyle’s Class V lower-level Greenwood Dragon would be unable to defeat, let alone kill the Nine-Headed Lizardant.

“There must be something wrong with this Nine-Headed Lizardant!”
