?The revival of human civilization was imminent, and William had already done plenty.

The gates of the Arcane Village base swung open.

Almost simultaneously, the gates of bases around the world flung open, marking the beginning of humanity's counterattack.

Thanks to the Pantheon Guild's efforts in educating the public about the habits of Mutated creatures, William's Beast Taming Class had become a special course, and William himself was appointed as the head of the Beast Taming Class.

However, the official enrollment for the Beast Taming Class stood at only ten students.

William didn't want to teach too many students. These ten included Seraphina and Amy, plus Silas, Jasper, and Emma from before, with the remaining five being individuals William found particularly intriguing.

This time, William was taking them outside the base.

According to the base's regulations, a Level A fighter could lead a hundred Level B fighters, and an S-level fighter could command a hundred Level A fighters.

The school's students could follow the main troops and observe the battle.

It was time for them to witness a real battlefield.

In the records, William was only a C-level fighter, technically not qualified to lead students outside.

But now, the upper echelons of the Human Alliance and some core members of the base knew that William was truly Earth's strongest combatant.

He could do as he pleased without concern.

Taking ten students out for training?

Even if William took ten babies out for a stroll, there would be absolutely no need to worry.

After the main force of the Arcane Village base departed, the front-line fighters began clearing out Mutated creatures, and the engineers started rebuilding on the ruins of the old cities.

The Mutated creatures around Mount Olympus were left untouched, as they were stronger than most others, and besides, Mount Olympus itself was not suitable for city-building due to the massive engineering and resource demands.

William paid no heed to the fierce battles at the front lines. Nowadays, the powerhouses of the Soulmancer realm were going all out to exchange for artifacts and secret scrolls at the Arcane Village base, mobilizing almost entirely unless they encountered an SSS-level Mutated creature.

These SSS-level Mutated creatures generally lived deep in the mountains or the ocean and were not easily encountered.

"Today, you'll get some real practice," William said. He had been at the base for quite a while and was a person who could endure solitude. But now that he was out, of course, he had to make the most of it.

Foraging alone in the mountains was one thing, but it was quite another to do it with a group of kids.

Perhaps it was his age, but William found he enjoyed being around children more because they weren't burdened with complex thoughts. Like Amy, even though they knew William was powerful, the most they did was look up to him with admiration.

Just like how Crayon Shin-chan adores Action Kamen.

It was a simple fondness!

Jasper's constitution was clearly not the best. At seventeen, he was still only a novice Soulmancer, not on the same level as the others in terms of personal combat ability.

"Mr. Johnson, is that Starlight Grass ahead?" Jasper pushed up his glasses, pointing at a clump of grass.

William glanced over and replied, "Yes, that's Starlight Grass. It tastes pretty good. Want to try some?"

Jasper responded expressionlessly, "Isn't that the Starlight Grass that can sap a Soulmancer's strength? And... isn't there usually an Astral Adder near Starlight Grass?"

Emma, still sporting her goth makeup, frowned and said, "Astral Adder? The kind that can cause hallucinations? An A-level Mutated creature..."

She looked around warily.

An A-level Mutated creature was a formidable presence for her.

As she spoke, a pale snake slithered out from the grass, hissing, "Damn humans, get off my territory, or I'll kill you!"

"Astral Adder?" Jasper stepped back, well aware of his own strength. As long as he retreated to William's side, he would be safe.

Mr. Johnson was very strong,a mere A-level Mutated creature was no match for him!

Just as Jasper stepped back to William's side, William gently pushed him forward, "Astral Adder tastes quite good, and this one's not fully grown yet, not very dangerous. You handle it."

"Me?" Jasper's head drooped slightly as he pulled out a bag of yellow powder from his pocket, then slowly donned a gas mask from his backpack, "Alright then!"

With that, he stepped towards the Astral Adder.

A novice Soulmancer, effectively a D-level, facing an A-level Mutated creature—the gap was significant.

Amy and Silas had agreed with William before coming out that unless he permitted, they wouldn't intervene.

Seraphina was the type who disdained getting involved.

William's outing with the students was not just for training but, of course, also for finding delicacies.

Or rather, it was the other way around!

Despite Jasper's low power level, he had his unique strengths.

While the other students, being powerful, didn't carry much when they went out, this bespectacled boy carried a large pack and faced everything with calm composure.

"You can step back now,let Jasper handle this little snake," William said with narrowed eyes. "You need to understand, we're not out here for fun. In a place crawling with Mutated creatures, we've already severely strayed from the main force. For food, you'll have to rely on yourselves." 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝖊𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪

"Of course, if you want to try finding the main force on your own, that's also fine."

While at the Arcane Village base, William was a genteel and easygoing teacher, but once outside, his students had to face some real challenges. They weren't out here on a picnic, after all.

As Emma grew older, her obsession with William only deepened, following his every word with absolute obedience.

As for the remaining five students, they were children selected from various major Soulmancer organizations, all under ten years old, and absolutely obedient to William.

For a moment, it was just Jasper and the Astral Adder facing off.

"What are you trying to do, kid?" the Astral Adder glared at Jasper, threatening, "Take one more step, and you'll regret it!"

The lenses of Jasper's glasses flashed coldly as he donned black metal gloves and said coolly, "You can try."

The Astral Adder flicked its tongue, spewing a cloud of green smoke that enveloped Jasper. But Jasper's steps were firm as he quickly charged at the Astral Adder, his black gloves sparking as he punched towards the snake.

"Think you can catch me with that speed?" Seeing Jasper unaffected by the poison, the Astral Adder attempted to flee like lightning.

A smile appeared on Jasper's face as a steel net shot out from his gloves, accurately trapping the Astral Adder and then tightening around it.

From his gloves, he then sprayed a cloud of sulfur powder onto the captured Astral Adder.
