Chapter 446: Chapter 440: Five-Clawed Golden Dragon

On the top floor of the Tower of Refining Beasts, there stood a small golden clock, also located on the ninth floor of the tower.
A balding elderly man, with a hint of vicissitudes in his eyes, and large wrinkles near the corners of his eyes and cheeks, suddenly sighed.
“Strange, I provided the Tower of Refining Beasts with enough Saint Crystals this week, so why is there still an energy deficiency?”
After speaking, the old man got up from his Pu Tuan cushion, slowly walking towards the little golden clock.
As the dean of Rosewood College, George Victory’s task was simple: to feed a Saint Crystal to the golden clock every week during the opening of the Tower of Refining Beasts, in order to maintain its normal operation.
However, nearly a day was left before he needed to feed the spirit of the tower, and the current energy deficiency was somewhat suspicious.
“Could it be that another genius Trainer in the school has reached the sixth level of the Buddha Tower Inheritance Trial?”
Thinking of this possibility, George Victory hurriedly activated his psychic power, and the ranking scroll on the jade table in the distance instantly fell into his hands.
“Huh, that’s not the case either. What’s going on?” George Victory’s eyes flicked.
On the scroll, David Jones’ trial ranking in the Buddha Realm was low, having only passed three challenging trials, and was ignored by him.
After all, the energy that vanished out of thin air could have activated the tower’s three tiered trials hundreds of times.
“Since I can’t find the reason, it must be the natural wear and tear of Beast Refining Tower!” George Victory looked down at the base beneath his feet.
The legendary treasure uncontrolled by anyone, the Tower of Refining Beasts, has strong confidentiality. Even as a Legendary Powerful One, he could not use his psychic power to scan the events inside the tower.
“One Saint Crystal!”
George Victory took out a naturally formed stone, looking somewhat like a goose egg, from his Star Ring with some reluctance.
If an ordinary Trainer encountered this stone on the road, they would only think of it as a common, unremarkable stone.
However, in the eyes of Legendary Powerful Ones, this small Saint Crystal contains a terrifying energy that could instantly level an entire city and is a legendary resource that can support the cultivation of Legendary Powerful
Ones.
And it is precisely because the Tower of Refining Beasts has a high requirement for Arcane Force that only top-grade Arcane Crystals and Saint Crystals can activate it. It is a veritable devourer of wealth, so the top management of Rosewood College selectively seals and isolates it.
At the entrance of the Tower of Refining Beasts, David Jones’ figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone with the explosion of a strong light.
“It’s David Jones, the first on the Myrtle List! Did he fail the Buddha Realm challenge, or the Inheritance Trial?”
The exchange student from Blunt College, a burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, looked at David Jones with an ugly expression in his eyes, revealing surprise.
David Jones currently ranked 15th in the Buddha List, several places behind Stan Dragonjoy, but this achievement was already considered impressive.
After all, it took Stan Dragonjoy and his senior brother Anders Roland about three years to fight in the Beast Refining Tower one step at a time, finally reaching the fourth level of the Inheritance Trial.
Unfortunately, there will always be people in this world who are easily influenced by rumors.
And at the moment when David Jones failed the challenge and appeared at the entrance of the Beast Refining Tower, a public opinion whirlwind began from nowhere!
“That’s it for number one? Can’t even pass the sixth level of Buddha Realm,
this strength is really questionable.”
“Even Fred Hoyle, the third-ranked on the Buddha List was defeated by David Jones. If you dare to challenge David Jones, I’ll showyou some respect.” “Stop making excuses, isn’t that all that the top-ranked person has?” “Here’s a joke, The first on the Myrtle List can only rank 15th in the Buddha
List.”
Looking at the messages buzzing on his phone, Stanley Sans shook his head speechlessly.
These boring little tricks can only disgust people at best, and the real harm to David Jones is almost negligible.
Trainers who know a little bit about the Inheritance Trial information among the Flowery Kingdom’s Big Five will only take such rumors as a joke.
With this in mind, Stanley Sans glanced enviously at David Jones, who was still standing there.
“Are geniuses demanding so much of themselves now? If my silly brother could break through the third level of the Inheritance Trial in his freshman year and eventually fail at the fourth level, he’d probably boast and show off for a whole day!”
However, at this time, David Jones was looking at the Star Ring between his fingers with surprise in his eyes.
Yes that’s right. As David Jones was waiting for the passage of portal to appear, he was teleported out by the angry Artifact Spirit of the Beast Refining Tower without even seeing what the fourth level trial was like.
That’s not all, David Jones also successfully received a penalty.
Because he bypassed the rules of the Beast Refining Tower and ordered his Pet to steal the tower’s Energy, David Jones couldn’t enter the tower for a week starting from today.
“Damn, I was discovered after letting the Gluttonous Beast use Infinite Evolution to devour energy just once!” David Jones frowned.
At this moment, even the nine-layered cultivation room that the Teacher had previously promised was not as appealing as the exotic beasts presented in the Inheritance Trial of the Beast Refining Tower.
If the Inheritance Trial could be repeated without taking half a month, David Jones was confident that he could raise the Gluttonous Beast’s strength from Class III lower-level to Class IV upper-level apex, or even surpassing the Arcane Star limit of Class V lower-level.
By then, he might be able to create a terrifying record of killing Sixth-Order King-Class Exotic Beasts as an Elite Trainer and then win the championship of the National College Trainer Competition in one fell swoop.
“Looks like I can only come back next week to harvest energy! David Jones looked back at the towering Beast Refining Tower with some regret.
To the onlooking students, this action was undoubtedly an unwilling move by David Jones after failing the trial.
The sky was slightly bright, and David Jones decided to walk back to the villa. On the way, he saw many groups of Trainers jogging and exercising with their various Pets.
Seeing the young students gathered around the front door of his house, David Jones followed their gaze to the distance, where a well-proportioned silhouette was waiting at the villa’s entrance.
“Claire Guarneri?”
Seeing her iconic light purple eyes, David Jones hesitated for a moment before stepping forward.
Seeing his appearance, Claire Guarneri’s eyes lit up, and she smiled and waved to David Jones.
“Why are you here?” David Jones asked softly.
“Why, don’t you welcome me? You didn’t even reply to my messages.” Claire Guarneri said.
“Of course not, I was on the Inheritance Trial in the Beast Refining Tower yesterday and didn’t have time to check the messages on my phone.’ David Jones took out his phone and glanced at the screen, where Claire Guarneri’s name was indeed there.
“You asked me earlier if I had a way for carp-type Pets to become strong quickly. Are you planning to cross the Dragon Gate and cultivate a True Dragon?” Claire Guarneri stared excitedly.
“Yes,” David Jones nodded slightly.
Although his main purpose was to uncover the secrets hidden in Goldy’ s body and not just to cultivate a True Dragon Pet, this excuse served to cover up his actions well.
“I have an ancient cultivation secret of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon. Do you want it?” Claire Guarneri asked telepathically.
