Chapter 37: A Boss Baby?
In a dark cave, the electric eel's clone was quietly lurking.
Its scales trembled slightly as it moved, and a powerful aura was slowly born from its body.

After another day of hunting caused the electric eel's body to grow up to 2.2 meters.
In just one month, the electric eel had grown from one meter to 2.2 meters!
This growth rate truly shocked Chu Lingjun.
At the same time, he was also looking forward to what the electric eel would look like when it grew to 10 meters or 100 meters.

With this thought in mind, Chu Lingjun ordered the electric eel clone to swim out of the cave and scout the shipwreck again. He released the Electric Field skill to see if the River-turning Rat was around.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual in the shipwreck, the electric eel instantly withdrew its Electric Field skill and returned to its nest.
Chu Lingjun didn't dare to let the electric eel clone get too close, nor did he dare to let the Electric Field skill cover the sunken ship and the River-turning Rat's cave. Instead, he only came to check it out at random intervals.
The principle of the Electric Field skill was that the electric current emitted by the electric eel's tail flowed to the sensor in the head, thus forming a weak electric field around its body. There were specialized cells in the central nervous system of the electric eel to monitor the activity of the electroreceptor. Based on the results of the monitoring and analysis, the electric eel's behavior could be commanded, and it could decide to adopt predatory behavior or evasive behavior to suit the needs of the environment.
In other words, when the electric eel releases the Electric Field skill, there would be a weak current passing through the surrounding seawater.
Chu Lingjun didn't know the exact strength of the River-Turning Rats, nor did he know if they could sense the weak electric current in the river.
Chu Lingjun didn't dare to take the risk, so that was the best thing he could come up with.
After confirming that the shipwreck and the River-turning Rat's burrow were still the same, the electric eel dove back into the cave.
However, Chu Lingjun still had some doubts in his heart.
It had been a week since he last saw the Wild Wave Company.
It had been too peaceful.
This made Chu Lingjun a little puzzled. Did the Wild Wave Company give up on this sunken ship?
Was the River-Turning Rat was too strong?
The risks and benefits were not proportional, was that why they gave up?
Chu Lingjun shook his head. He didn't want to think about it anymore. In any case, he should focus on his exam right now.
Plus, time had always been on his side. Every day, he and the electric eel clone would become stronger. Maybe one day, he might be able to defeat the River-turning Rats!
…
Chu Lingjun opened his eyes at the same time as the rising sun.
He came to a small stream, washed up, caught a fish, and picked a few fruits to fill his stomach. Then, he continued to walk towards the top of the mountain.
Chu Lingjun checked his watch. When he took a look, he realized that he had fallen from first place to third place.
Luo Chaoxiang and Zhou Anqi, who were originally behind him, had already surpassed him and were five to six points ahead.
"They're fighting for the rankings before dawn?! That's crazy!"
Chu Lingjun shook his head and ignored the two. He continued to follow his own rhythm, releasing his Electric Field Skill and rushing to the top of the mountain step by step.
As Chu Lingjun approached the mountain peak, the exotic beasts that appeared in the surroundings were of higher levels.
More and more Middle Stage Level One exotic beasts appeared, while Early Stage Level One exotic beasts were getting fewer and fewer. There were even Late Stage Level One exotic beasts appearing.
Chu Lingjun slowed down.
A few wolf howls rang out from the forest. Six brownish-black wolves bared their teeth and rushed out of the forest. They were salivating as they rushed towards Chu Lingjun.
A few blue arcs of lightning suddenly burst forth, and the three wolves at the front fell to the ground stiffly. Their fur was charred black, and they wailed and trembled.
However, with these few wolves blocking the way, the three others immediately pounced in front of Chu Lingjun.
Chu Lingjun took a step to the left and easily dodged the three wolves claws.
While dodging, Chu Lingjun raised the dagger in his right hand and gently slit one of the wolf's throats.
As the spring breeze blew past, a stream of blood gushed out from the wolf's throat, splattering everywhere.
Chu Lingjun lowered his head lightly and withdrew the blade. At this moment, the second wolf that pounced over just happened to brush past Chu Lingjun's scalp.
Then, Chu Lingjun jumped up and kicked the third wolf with his right foot, sending its body flying into the air
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Lingjun took a step forward and burrowed into the chest of the wolf. He grabbed the right forelimb of the wolf with both hands and threw it over his shoulder!
Just as the second wolf was about to get up from the ground, it was immediately smashed onto the ground by the third wolf.
Chu Lingjun walked forward lightly and stabbed the heads of the two wolves with his dagger, straight in the eye socket.
Both of them died on the spot!
Just like that, the six wolves that ambushed Chu Lingjun were taken care of in less than ten seconds.
Chu Lingjun's clothes were still spotless. There was not a single drop of blood on them.
Chu Lingjun took out a coarse hemp rope that was tied to his waist that he made yesterday. He tied the six wolves' hind legs and dragged them to a collection point in front.
Looking at the map, this point happened to be on Chu Lingjun's way to the top of the mountain.
At the base of the mountain, the teachers from Quicksand High School were dumbfounded when they saw Chu Lingjun's live broadcast.
"The f*ck, Chu Lingjun's close-range combat is as smooth as a fighter. That was art at its purest form!"
"Yeah, Luo Chaoxiang, Ding Peng, and Chen Zhiqi's battles didn't look that flawless!"
"It's a pity that this kid doesn't practice martial arts!"
"Shen Yanhu, how about this? I'll take some time out of my schedule to teach Chu Lingjun martial arts cultivation."
Shen Yanhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he cursed, "Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. You can't take my student away!"
Shen Yanhu knew martial arts himself, so why would he need anyone to teach his own student?
This person was clearly trying to snatch his star student away!
After joking for a while, Shen Yanhu looked at Chu Lingjun on the live broadcast screen again and began to seriously consider whether it was necessary for Chu Lingjun to dual cultivate.
After all, his martial arts talent looked really powerful!
Time passed slowly, and it was the second day of the monthly exam.
Chu Lingjun managed to get halfway up the mountain. He was only a few hundred meters away from the summit before an ear piercing sound rang in his ear from the top of the mountain.
This voice was high-pitched and loud. It was hysterical, it sounded like a baby who had been starved for three days without milk.
Chu Lingjun looked at the mountaintop in confusion. Why would there be a baby crying at the peak of the mountain?
Wasn't the top of the mountain supposed to have a boss?
Was the boss a baby?
That was too strange!
