Dragon Tamer-Chapter 370 - 372: Ancient Ape Dragon

Chapter 370: Chapter 372: Ancient Ape Dragon

Zhu Minglang heard these words, and waves surged in his heart.

Recalling the words Duan Lan had shared with him a few days earlier, Zhu Minglang couldn’t help but develop a deep admiration for Dean Duan Changqing.

Indeed, the academy is such a sacred and noble place…

But it’s not about instilling a sense of meaningless superiority or making those with student status feel above others, but rather that sense of confidence and pride that one never loses, no matter where they set foot.

In just a few sentences, he had greatly inspired those students who were fighting for Li Chuan Academy.

The slight tension and inferiority initially brought on by this spectacle also dissipated a bit.

Hong Hao walked toward the center of the Great Competition Field.

Soon, many students around started to jeer and mock, and every sarcastic word that came out of their mouths was automatically ignored by Hong Hao.

In the end, it was still strength that spoke.

It was the same anywhere.

“Dragon Beasts are free to fight, but attacking the Dragon Trainer themselves is not allowed.”

All competitions at the academy prohibited causing harm to the Dragon Trainers themselves.

After all, it’s an academy, and most are students, not a real battlefield.

Jiang Zhiyi stood on that gravelly ground, his somewhat frivolous cheeks showing a trace of mockery toward Hong Hao’s outfit and appearance.

“Did you learn how to dress on your way from Li Chuan to Man City? I’ve heard some classmates say that in Li Chuan everyone walks around naked, women included,” Jiang Zhiyi laughed.

“Only frogs at the bottom of a well would say what you just said,” Hong Hao retorted disdainfully.

“Summon all the Dragons you can fight with,” Jiang Zhiyi said arrogantly.

Jiang Zhiyi summoned only one Dragon.

It was an Ancient Ape Dragon covered in a meaty carapace, standing tall in the center of the battlefield, its ferocious and terrifying presence changing the expressions of the students in the stands!

Hong Hao opened the Spirit Realm and called forth three Dragons.

Wind Wolf Dragon.

This was Hong Hao’s main Dragon. When he enrolled, his Wolf Spirit had shown incredible combat talent, and before long it had transformed into a Dragon of no small rank.

After being nurtured, this Wind Wolf Dragon had reached the level of a High-Rank Dragon General, and it seemed to have been promoted to that rank quite recently.

The other two Dragons were a Sickle Dragon and an Earth Dragon.

The Earth Dragon’s cultivation base was probably that of a Lower-Rank Dragon General, while the Sickle Dragon was a Dragon Son.

“Don’t underestimate me!” Hong Hao shouted, directing the three Dragons to attack Jiang Zhiyi’s Ancient Ape Dragon from three different directions.

The Wind Wolf Dragon was incredibly fast. When it ran on the sandy ground, a muddy gale swirled around, enhancing its momentum as it charged.

The Wind Wolf Dragon’s most powerful weapon was still its claws.

It didn’t rashly approach the robust Ancient Ape Dragon, instead using the muddy gale raised while running to obscure the Ancient Ape Dragon’s line of sight, then launching an attack from the latter’s blind spot!

The Ancient Ape Dragon bore an extremely rugged face, it revealed its fierce fangs with wildness in its eyes, which held a hint of mockery, just like its master Jiang Zhiyi. It particularly disdained such trivial tricks of the Wind Wolf Dragon.

The hearing of the Ancient Ape Dragon was extremely sharp; even in the midst of a strong whirlwind, it could discern the Wind Wolf Dragon’s position.

“Roar!!!!!!”

The Ancient Ape Dragon suddenly let out a roar and, turning its body to the side, swung its arm—covered in a shield-like flesh armor—fiercely toward the spot where the Wind Wolf Dragon was sprinting, smashing it down with great force.

That slam was incredibly powerful, and a large pit formed in the gravel-strewn ground.

If the Wind Wolf Dragon had been hit, it likely would have been flattened into a meat patty!

The body of the Ancient Ape Dragon shuddered. It had hit its target, but its own arm had gone numb, nearly injuring it from the rebound.

As the murky wind drifted to another direction, the students in the stands finally saw clearly that within the wind wasn’t the swiftly rushing Wolf Dragon, but an Earth Dragon covered in rocky spines!

Using the wind as a cover for their vision, at some point, the Wind Wolf Dragon and the Earth Dragon had switched places.

What the Ancient Ape Dragon attacked with its arm was the Earth Dragon, lured by its feint.

The rocky armor of the Earth Dragon, even more durable than the flesh helmet of the Ancient Ape Dragon, meant that despite having a lower cultivation base, the Ape Dragon was still no match for the solid and resilient Earth Dragon.

With that hit, the Ancient Ape Dragon injured its own arm; the flesh near the elbow of the shield-arm was smashed to pieces.

Meanwhile, the Wind Wolf Dragon had already circled behind the Ancient Ape Dragon. It opened its mouth and lunged to bite the back of the Ape Dragon’s neck!

Sharp fangs sliced through, and blood sprayed out immediately.

The Ancient Ape Dragon clutched at its neck and charged furiously at the Wind Wolf Dragon, but the latter nimbly dodged and immediately whipped up a murky gust of wind, moving to a safe position.

The Ancient Ape Dragon was wounded, which made Jiang Zhiyi’s face turn nasty.

He had been outplayed by his opponent.

Jiang Zhiyi had not expected this rough-looking Li Chuan Dragon Shepherd to actually have a brain.

“Stop showing off your petty tricks and making a fool of yourself here. I’ll show you just how na?ve and laughable your battle tactics are in the face of absolute power!” Jiang Zhiyi still carried that arrogant demeanor.

As he spat out these words, the Ancient Ape Dragon also let out a series of roars.

“Roar, roar, roar!!!!!!!”

The roaring was like a giant drum, shaking the ground so that the gravel quivered.

The flesh armor of the Ancient Ape Dragon suddenly heated up, its chest, shoulders, arms, and legs all emitting scalding steam. Soon, the entire body of the Ancient Ape Dragon became boiling hot, like a furnace in full blaze!

Its blood, especially from the wound on its back, dried up quickly, with the torn flesh no longer a concern.

The Ancient Ape Dragon burst forth with terrifying speed. Its massive feet stomping on the gravel made the ground sink.

It had no claws, but it did have fists as hard as rock, and, on its elbows, a shield-like flesh armor sharp enough to cleave. That elbow’s shield armor became its strongest weapon—one charge with an elbow strike could shatter a wall!

The Ancient Ape Dragon aimed its attack at the Wind Wolf Dragon, but the Earth Dragon immediately rushed in, attempting to block the savage elbow strike. However, this time, the Earth Dragon was toppled, its rock spines shattering to bits!

“Roar, roar, roar!!!!!!!”

The boiling Ancient Ape Dragon was unstoppable. Utilizing its powerful arms, it hoisted the Earth Dragon and then violently smashed it against a boulder!

Such an impact greatly damaged the Earth Dragon’s internal organs.

The boulder crumbled, and the Earth Dragon spewed a lot of blood before managing to rise unsteadily to its feet. But the seething Ancient Ape Dragon charged again with its shoulder, knocking the Earth Dragon flying hundreds of meters away!!

The strength was so fearsome that even the tough body of the Earth Dragon couldn’t withstand it.

The valiance of the Ancient Ape Dragon left the watching students speechless.

This Jiang Zhiyi, is he really a first-year? How is it he seems as strong as those seniors who’ve been at the Dragon Taming Academy for years?
