You Ditched an R-Rank, Now That I’m an SSR, You Wanna Cry?-Chapter 12: Your physical skills are also strong

Xia Yuan's words, though spoken lightly, brought unprecedented pressure upon everyone in the Mo family!
The hall fell into silence once again.
After a long while, Mo Cheng finally spoke:
"Since Senior Xia Yuan has spoken, then it must be so."
Mo Wushuang seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.
He still felt somewhat unwilling, but he also knew he couldn't afford to offend Xia Yuan.
However, Mo Cheng changed the subject and looked at Mo Shiyu, "But, Shiyu, since you've already made such a statement, you must get admitted to a top-tier Spirit Tamer university within one year. You cannot go back on your word."
Mo Shiyu nodded, her expression particularly serious, "Naturally, I won't. If I fail, I will voluntarily terminate the contract."
She knew Xia Yuan had firmly chosen her out of gratitude.
If she remained incapable of supporting him in full-power battles, then she herself wouldn't want to stay by Xia Yuan's side and hold him back.
Mo Shiyu had her own pride!
Xia Yuan was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected Mo Shiyu to make such a vow.
Mo Cheng nodded slightly, indicating his acceptance.
Mo Shiyu also understood that Mo Cheng, as the head of the Mo family, wasn't particularly selfish and had always prioritized the family's interests.
And Mo Wushuang wasn't closely related by blood to Mo Cheng; he was merely a collateral family member, albeit one with talent for cultivating spiritual energy.
Mo Wushuang gritted his teeth, ultimately finding himself helpless. He resolutely left the scene, pausing briefly beside Mo Shiyu before departing, letting out a cold laugh:
"One year to get into a top university? Cousin Shiyu, you certainly are confident."
"I'll be waiting for the good news then. I hope you can prove worthy of an overwhelmingly powerful SSR Contracted Spirit like Senior Xia Yuan!"
Mo Shiyu cast him a cold glance, "That's none of your concern."
........
Mo Shiyu and Xia Yuan didn't stay at the Mo family for long. After lunch, they returned to the academy, ready to run dungeons!
Knowing about Xia Yuan's monstrous strength, Mo Shiyu's courage had grown significantly.
While the academy's freshmen were still struggling to form teams and painstakingly clear beginner dungeons, they were already preparing to tackle a three-star dungeon!
As famous figures within the academy, they still caused a stir and became the center of attention wherever they went.
As luck would have it, Jiang Li also arrived at the dungeon area with her newly purchased C-rank Contracted Spirit, the Skeleton General, intending to run some beginner dungeons.
In the crowd, Jiang Li immediately spotted Xia Yuan, and her eyes instantly turned red with envy!
She looked at his silver hair, handsome appearance, tall 190cm stature—an SSR that was both pleasing to the eye and immensely powerful.
Then she glanced at the C-rank Contracted Spirit Skeleton General she had bought for 10,000 Spirit Stones on loan, radiating a terrifying aura, and endless regret washed over her!
Because of the incident where she abandoned the contract with the SSR, she had now become a sinner within her family. Even her own father was unwilling to give her Spirit Stones anymore...
Jiang Li was naturally aware of Xia Yuan's achievements from yesterday: soloing a two-star dungeon and instantly killing a B-rank level 70 Contracted Spirit!
Such an invincible Contracted Spirit should have been hers!
But she had voluntarily given up the contract herself...
"Damn it, why did you have to turn out to be such a powerful SSR!"
"Why is fate treating me like this?"
The more Jiang Li thought about it, the angrier she became. She viciously kicked the Skeleton General beside her, "What are you looking at? A Contracted Spirit that can't even speak is completely useless! Why can't you turn into an SSR?!"
The Skeleton General stared at her with its hollow eye sockets, looking utterly innocent.
On the other side.
Mo Shiyu and Xia Yuan had already decided to enter the three-star dungeon. Senior students gathered around with their own Contracted Spirits, eager to join them.
Unfortunately, they were all mercilessly rejected.
Xia Yuan wanted to level up alone.
Mo Shiyu's C-rank Cat Spirit, due to its hidden trait of reducing spiritual energy consumption, didn't take much experience from him; otherwise, he wouldn't even have wanted to bring Little Black along.
"Fatty Yu, do you have enough spiritual energy reserves? Did you bring any energy recovery potions?"
After the previous assassination attempt, Xia Yuan had remained vigilant within the academy, constantly using his Six Eyes to observe the surroundings.
Although he couldn't keep the Limitless Technique activated continuously, it was sufficient for prevention.
Mo Shiyu's expression turned slightly awkward, resembling an incapable husband being forced to take medication—both embarrassed and feeling incompetent. She turned her face away and muttered quietly, "I brought some..."
Xia Yuan nodded slightly, "Good, that should prevent anyone from launching a surprise attack when you're low on energy."
Mo Shiyu understood Xia Yuan's concerns, but her trip back to the Mo family wasn't for nothing.
Besides bringing many potions that could temporarily replenish spiritual energy, she had also brought numerous life-saving barrier artifacts, just in case.
"By the way, how do you Spirit Tamers cultivate spiritual energy?"
Xia Yuan asked curiously.
Mo Shiyu: "By using it frequently. The way to train spiritual energy is to constantly drain it completely."
Xia Yuan was momentarily taken aback, then smiled, "That's too simple, no wonder you dared to make that bet with that old fogey from the Mo family!"
Mo Shiyu snorted, "I'm not stupid!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt the world spin around her, and then heaven and earth seemed to flip.
Xia Yuan skillfully picked her up and stepped into the three-star dungeon's teleportation gate!
The surrounding crowd gasped once again:
"This is insane! Solo running a dungeon again, and it's a three-star dungeon this time!"
"Even we seniors don't dare to challenge three-star dungeons lightly, even in teams!"
"SSRs truly defy common sense..."
"Hisss, with combat power like this, will our Chuanbei Academy finally become famous in this year's National College Spirit Tamer Competition?"
"Successfully soloing a three-star dungeon once probably gives a reward of 3,000 Spirit Stones, almost enough for twenty consecutive summons. So envious!"
"......"
...........
The environment of this three-star dungeon appeared to be a tropical rainforest, very open and bright.
"Vine Claw Hunter!"
"Rot Moss Swamp Beast!"
"Symbiotic Spore Moth!"
Mo Shiyu continued to professionally and expertly call out these monsters' weaknesses, though Xia Yuan never needed them.
Holding Mo Shiyu, he began another massacre with lightning speed!
Numerous thorn-covered vines suddenly shot out from the ground.
Xia Yuan broke into a sprint, executed a perfect 180-degree freestyle rotation in mid-air, dodged them precisely, and hit the Vine Claw Hunter with a Cursed Technique Cang!
A giant beast with a gaping maw suddenly burst from the swamp beneath his feet, trying to swallow him whole.
But Xia Yuan had already detected it, kicked it flying, and rewarded it with a Cursed Technique He, piercing through its neck.
Wave after wave of monsters emerged in the rainforest, and Xia Yuan moved among them with ease, dodging and weaving effortlessly.
Mo Shiyu and Little Black, being carried in his hand, experienced a ride as thrilling as a roller coaster, their faces expressing utter resignation.
Mo Shiyu never expected that despite Xia Yuan's skills already being so overpowered, his physical combat techniques were also incredibly strong!
Her SSR truly lived up to the panel description: perfect in all abilities except for his personality!
Truly an all-rounder Contracted Spirit!
The monsters in the three-star dungeon corresponded to levels between 40 and 60!
The dungeon BOSS was fixed at the maximum level of 60!
The difficulty was not just a little bit higher than that of a two-star dungeon.
However, as long as Xia Yuan activated his Limitless Technique, he became nearly invincible, allowing him to clear the dungeon without taking damage.
Combined with his nearly instant-cast Cursed Technique Cang and He, along with his exaggerated physical combat skills, his efficiency remained quite high.
Ten minutes later.
They once again reached the dungeon BOSS's location!
Mo Shiyu could finally get down and take a short break; being carried for so long was quite hard on her back.
She stretched her graceful figure and moved her body around, "I wonder if it's a red-name BOSS this time. A red-name in a three-star dungeon would be level 70. But it probably won't be that coincidental, right? Getting red-names twice in a row would be lottery-winning luck..."
Xia Yuan took off his sunglasses, revealing his ice-crystal-like eyes, "I hope it is."
After Mo Shiyu had rested sufficiently.
The two entered the BOSS's domain.
The moment they stepped in, red warning lines appeared around them.
A emerald green humanoid mantis descended from the sky. It had a robust physique, with sharp blades embedded in both its arms and legs, and blood-red pupils.
It wasn't particularly large, about the size of a human, but the pressure it exuded was considerable!
Above its head glowed a red level indicator:
"Level 70, Blade Monarch!"
Cold sweat broke out on Mo Shiyu's face as she fearfully shrunk back, "It seems our luck really is something else!"
Xia Yuan's expression was the complete opposite of hers, filled with delight as he rationally analyzed, "Perhaps it's not luck. The method to trigger a red-name BOSS is probably clearing the dungeon quickly!"
