Battle Through the Heavens, Reborn as Xiao Yan's Sister

Chapter 39 Accident
"I only need Sister Yue'er." The girl's slender fingers clung tightly to Xiao Yue's arm, as if she was afraid that if she let go, she would lose the most important thing.

"Silly girl..."

Hearing the girl's somewhat willful words, Xiao Yue chuckled, raised her hand to rub the girl's head, and said nothing more. There were some things she didn't want to talk about now. The future was so long, and there was so much time. The girl was still too young, and everything was still uncertain.

Just then, a sharp whistle suddenly rang out in the square, and then a middle-aged man in uniform stood on the high platform and loudly announced the examination rules of Canaan Academy.

"Welcome, everyone, to the Canaan Academy admissions event. I am one of the instructors for this assessment. I will now explain the assessment content and process in detail. Please listen carefully..."

As the examiner explained, the crowd in the square gradually quieted down, everyone listening intently to every detail, afraid of missing any key information.

however,
Just then, a sudden whooshing sound broke the tranquility of the square. Everyone looked up and saw a dark figure flying down from the sky at an astonishing speed, heading straight for the Canaan Academy's admissions team.

"That is…"

Xiao Yue also frowned slightly, as she could clearly feel the violent aura rapidly approaching.

Before the crowd in the square could react, the dark figure had already appeared above the Canaan Academy's admissions team.

Take a closer look,
It was a huge griffin, exuding a strong aura of ferocity, its eyes bloodshot, clearly having gone mad for some unknown reason.

"It's a griffin! It's out of control!"

"Wasn't that magical beast already tamed? As a second-tier flying mount of Canaan Academy, how did it suddenly go out of control!"

The crowd in the square immediately erupted in chaos, with many people retreating in panic.

The Canaan Academy admissions team was also in an uproar. Several of the more capable instructors on the bus quickly stepped forward and took the lead in protecting the students behind them.

"Array up!"

On both sides of the street, fully armed soldiers responsible for maintaining order, under the command of their officers, clattered their armor and steel armor together, and rows of soldiers quickly took up their shields and lined up in formation. Their long spears, gleaming coldly, reflected a blinding light in the sunlight, preparing to deal with this sudden crisis.

"Roar!"

The griffin flapped its massive wings wildly, its ferocious eyes glowing blood red, its roar deafening, and its gaping maw revealing a mouthful of snow-white fangs, each one like a sharp sword, chilling and terrifying, filled with an aura of mad slaughter.

Its dive was incredibly fast; it crossed the defense line almost instantly and pounced towards the center of the square, where Xiao Yue and the others were just a short distance away.

For a time,

Countless people turned pale. The incredible speed of the griffin's high-altitude dive, combined with its massive size, was enough to crush the crowds in the street who had no time to dodge into mincemeat!
Faced with this scene, a dangerous golden light flickered in the girl's eyes, which were as clear as autumn water, and a wisp of pale golden flame quietly danced on her slender fingertips.

"Calm down."

Xiao Yue spoke softly, gently squeezing the girl's hand to comfort her.

"Sister Yue'er..."

Xiao Xun'er was slightly taken aback, feeling the cool temperature transmitted through her fingertips. The golden flame in her eyes gradually died down until they regained their clarity. She seemed to want to say something.
But the next second,
Suddenly, Xiao Yue vanished from beside him, leaving only a fleeting afterimage. When she reappeared, her long, silver-haired figure had already materialized beside the griffin, a hand reaching out lightly and landing on the back of the griffin's neck with a seemingly swift yet deliberate motion. "Boom!"

With a loud bang, the enormous monster's body crashed to the ground, weighing several thousand kilograms, causing a violent tremor in the street and kicking up a cloud of yellow dust.

"Ouch!"

The griffin was pinned to the ground, letting out a mournful roar, and tried to get up and fight back.

This time, Xiao Yue didn't let it get away with it either. With a slight force, the hand that was pressing down on its skull cracked open, and the huge lion's head was forced deep into the floor, three feet into the ground, and could no longer move.

in an instant,
The entire place was silent. Everyone stared at the scene with their mouths agape, dumbfounded. Perhaps the scene was just too shocking, so much so that they forgot to react for a moment.

It wasn't until an officer reacted and shouted, "Quickly, tie up the griffin and get the beast tamers from Canaan Academy to come and check what's going on!"

Upon hearing this, a dozen soldiers clad in iron armor quickly stepped forward and used iron chains to bind the unconscious griffin, whose eyes were seeing stars, in order to prevent it from suddenly waking up.

"What...what kind of power is this?"

Someone couldn't help but ask in a low voice,
Subduing a second-tier griffin in a single strike is something even a typical Grand Master might not be able to do.

"It seems to be the legendary Miss Silver Moon from the Xiao family. People have long said that her strength is comparable to that of a Great Dou Master. It seems that the rumors are true!" There were many locals from Wutan City on the street, and some of them recognized Xiao Yue's identity.

"Sister Yue'er, are you alright?"

Seeing that Xiao Yue was safe and sound, the girl finally felt relieved. She quickly ran to Xiao Yue's side and asked with concern.

Xiao Yue smiled and shook her head, then gently patted the girl's shoulder to comfort her, indicating that she was alright.

"Miss Xiao Yue, thank you so much for your help earlier!"

The middle-aged officer who had just arrived came over and bowed to Xiao Yue, his voice filled with gratitude.

Xiao Yue recognized him. His name was Mu Ye, and he was a Great Dou Master. He belonged to the City Lord's Mansion and had recently represented the City Lord's Mansion at the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony.

"Commander Mu, you're too kind. It was nothing..." Xiao Yue waved her hand and said.

The middle-aged officer exchanged a few more pleasantries with Xiao Yue before returning to the ranks to maintain order.

At this moment, several instructors from Canaan Academy rushed over. One of the younger female instructors hurriedly went to the griffin.

The female instructor looked to be only about thirty years old. Her full and exquisite figure exuded a mature charm. She slowly extended a fair and delicate hand, and a faint, warm, light blue energy flowed from her arm into the griffin's head.

After a thorough examination, the female instructor from Canaan Academy raised her head and, with a slightly grave expression, explained to the other instructors around her the reason for the monster's frenzy, which was roughly that it had been drugged.
