Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 909

Chapter 909: Chapter 909 - Taming the Fifth Year - Attrition - Final Battle - 8

An intense war continued between defenders’ beasts and the horde of mutants continuing to emerge.

It was chaos on a scale the academy experienced for the first time. Violence transforming the educational institution into a real battlefield where survival depended on execution under pressure that most had never faced outside simulations.

Screams of dying beasts filled the air. The wet sounds of tearing flesh and crunching bone, the roar of elemental techniques colliding and the trembling earth as massive creatures moved, fought and died.

Blood stained the sand purple from corrupt beasts... But also small red dots from the few defenders who’d already been injured, luckily not yet killed.

The arena that had been a competition ground was becoming a blood bath.

And ironically, the final exam’s war battle had declined into what was basically already a real war.

It was a more brutal lesson than any instructor could deliberately design.

And while Ren fought alongside Luna, alongside companions and family and strangers united by the need to survive a threat that didn’t discriminate between prodigy and average student, he recognized that this was exactly the type of situation training had been preparing them to eventually face.

Only "eventually" had arrived considerably sooner than anyone had anticipated.

The war games hadn’t been games. They’d been preparation...

Now the value of that preparation was being tested. Students who’d taken training seriously moved with purpose and coordination. Those who’d treated it casually were struggling to adapt. The difference between those who’d internalized lessons and those who’d just gone through motions was becoming obvious.

And deadly.

Julius was with Zhao and his specialized group of earth tamers in one of the wide chambers of an ancient tunnel that hadn’t been that long originally but now seemed to have no end when trying to exit. Pushing against the flow of abyssal creatures that continued without showing signs of exhausting.

They’d been fighting for hours. Constant exchange consuming resources without providing visible gain.

They’d gained very little ground considering the effort invested. Perhaps fifty meters of tunnel advanced to reach the chamber against resistance that regenerated almost as fast as they eliminated it.

It was demoralizing. And it communicated that the present approach likely wasn’t sustainable long-term.

Every meter forward had cost a tremendous time expenditure.

All that effort, and for what? Fifty meters. Barely any progress at all when they needed to advance thousands of meters to reach the surface.

Julius continued arguing internally between options where none seemed good when evaluated completely.

Using his complete fusion to escape was tempting. Power that would very probably provide capability to break through blockages that conventional methods couldn’t penetrate.

The fusion state would make him and some of the team nearly unstoppable for a brief period. They could probably carve through enemies like they were paper. Reach the surface in minutes rather than hours or days.

But if they managed to escape using all their energy and then couldn’t help upon emerging because he was completely spent, what was the point of escaping only to be incapacitated on the surface where their power might be needed?
