REBORN OF THE LEGENDARY BEAST MASTER-Chapter 15 - : Rising Through the Ranks

After defeating the Silver-Tailed Thunder Ape, Li Jun stepped out of the Beast Combat Hall, his body still buzzing with the energy from battle. His Lunar Sovereign Wolf walked beside him, its silver eyes burning with newfound confidence.

Defeating a Gold 5-Star beast had drawn attention.

Several disciples whispered among themselves.

"That was insane! He actually took down a Gold 5-Star opponent!"

"He's advancing too fast... even some of the core disciples struggle at that level."

"Looks like Li Jun isn't just lucky—he's really strong."

Li Jun ignored them, heading straight for the ranking pillar at the entrance.

A moment later, glowing golden text rearranged itself.

—Li Jun | Rank 20—

His name had shot up the rankings, pushing aside several well-known disciples.

Li Jun smirked. Not bad for a start.

But he wasn't satisfied.

The Next Step

To compete in the Beast Master Tournament, he needed to reach at least Spirit Realm 5-Star. He was currently Spirit Realm 3-Star, meaning he had to break through two more levels within a month.

That means I need better resources...

Just as he was considering his next move, a voice interrupted him.

"Not bad, Li Jun."

He turned to see Li Ren, arms crossed, his expression unreadable.

"You're rising quickly," Li Ren continued. "But don't get ahead of yourself. The higher you climb, the harder the fall."

Li Jun met his gaze without flinching. "Then I'll just have to make sure I never fall."

Li Ren smirked but didn't reply. Instead, he turned and walked away.

Li Jun narrowed his eyes. He's watching me closely. I need to be prepared.

A Mysterious Summon

Before Li Jun could return to his training, a messenger arrived.

"Li Jun, the Grand Elder has summoned you again."

Li Jun frowned slightly. The Grand Elder had already appointed him for the tournament. Why summon him again so soon?

He nodded. "I'll go immediately."

Within minutes, he arrived at the Grand Elder's Hall once more. Li Mu, the Grand Elder, was waiting, his sharp eyes scanning Li Jun as he entered.

"You've improved faster than expected," the elder said.

"I don't intend to stop," Li Jun replied calmly.

Li Mu nodded. "That's good. Because the tournament won't be your only challenge."

Li Jun's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean?"

The Grand Elder's expression turned serious. "The Heavenly Beast Academy has sent an invitation. They want to evaluate our top disciples for recruitment."

Li Jun's mind sharpened at those words. The Heavenly Beast Academy—one of the most prestigious institutions for Beast Masters.

"If you prove yourself in the tournament," Li Mu continued, "you might earn a place among them."

Li Jun's heartbeat quickened.

A chance to train in the strongest Beast Master Academy?

His path to reclaiming his past God Realm strength had just taken another major turn.
