The third section: The sea turtle grass snake fire in the fox, the mysterious beast egg has a profound meaning.

  The third section of Hai Eel Grass Snake Fire Fox, the egg of the demon beast has a mysterious mechanism.

  Three weeks later, Shujia Island.

  Coming of age ceremony

  "Choose an egg." The old Taoist master had white temples and a slightly hunched back, his hands clasped behind him as he quietly gazed at the three young men before him. Though aged, his presence was still strong, exuding a faint aura of pressure.

  Now.

  In front of Chu Yun and others, there were three beast eggs.

  On the left, this one is about the size of a washbasin, with a pale blue color throughout. At first glance, the eggshell looks like stone, but if you listen carefully, you can hear a faint sound of waves coming from inside the egg.

  The middle one, about the size of a sea bowl, is deep green all over. The eggshell shines with a feeling of oily smoothness. The surface of the eggshell is also dotted with small black spots. If you sniff it carefully with your nose, you can even smell the fresh grassy scent from this egg.

  On the right, this one is also as big as a sea bowl. The eggshell has a clean white base color like snow, and on its surface are evenly distributed bright red flame-like patterns about the size of fingernails. At first glance, it seems like fresh flowers are blooming, and a warm feeling arises suddenly.

  Jet-black bright eyes, calm as a deep pool. Chu Yun's heart surged, her gaze swept over the first two demon beast eggs, and on the one on the right, she slightly, almost imperceptibly, paused for a moment. Her facial expression remained indifferent throughout.

  As his eyes fell on Chu Yun, even the weathered and seasoned Di Tan, a master of demon slaying, couldn't help but secretly admire him. Chu Yun's body had an air of calmness that far surpassed his thirteen years of age. In comparison, the two other boys beside him, whether in expression or demeanor, were both displaying the anxiety and hesitation typical of their age.

  Like other islands, every year, Shujia Island holds a unique coming-of-age ceremony for 13-year-old boys who possess the spiritual power to tame monsters.

  The island will select the best quality beast eggs obtained this year and provide them to the young people for selection.

  In the following program, they not only have to successfully hatch the eggs of the demon beasts, but also learn how to feed the demon beasts, command them in battle, and capture new demon beasts.

  In this world, the Youju represent power. The Coming of Age Ceremony represents boys leaving behind their carefree childhood and formally embarking on a path of taking responsibility. How they perform at the ceremony is even more closely tied to their future prospects.

  Coming of age is very important. This is a turning point in life. Countless strong people, from this starting point, gradually emerge and become the dominant figures in the world.

  Thirteen-year-old boys, although mentally mature, have not yet undergone real tempering. In the face of such a major moment, anxiety and hesitation are inevitable. However, Chu Yun appeared quite calm, which made the extremely experienced Ditan Royal Demon Master also glance sideways, secretly praising: "Indeed worthy of being Island Master's adopted son!"

  "Damn it! Mother had already investigated these eggs for us two. Let's choose between the Sea Blast Turtle and the Green Fang Snake, both of which are demonic beast eggs. But how do we know which one is the Sea Blast Turtle and which one is the Green Fang Snake?"

  "Yes, apart from these two eggs, there's also a Fire Fox egg. If I were to get that Fire Fox egg, my life would be over. And if that little brat Chuyun gets it for nothing, it'll be even more infuriating!"

  By Chu Yun's side, those two young men were whispering to each other.

  "It's a pity, but we can't ask that old man either. Investigating these eggs is already against the rules. This coming-of-age ceremony is also unreasonable, it's marked with the name of the demon beast, let's just choose directly!"

  "It's all your fault for not studying properly in the past. Now, you can't even tell a monster egg apart."

  "You're talking about me? You're no better, why don't you make a move first?"

  The beast egg had not been selected yet, but these two young men had already started arguing, and their voices were getting louder and louder.

  "Shh, keep your voice down, what's all the commotion about? Aren't you afraid others will hear?"

  "Are you kidding me? You're one to talk with your loud mouth!"

  Two people were at odds with each other, neither willing to give in.

  The Earth Altar's Royal Sorcerer heard it in his ear, slightly shook his head, and sighed in his heart: "With just your little tricks, even if you go outside the Earth Altar, I can still hear your whispers. Alas, the Island Master is wise and powerful, how could he have two sons like you... No wonder someone suspects they might not be the Island Master's biological children..."

  This year's Coming of Age Day on Shujing Island was special.

  Not only are they qualified youngsters, but there are also only three on the entire island. Moreover, these three are all sons of the master of Shu Island. Only Chuyun is an adopted son, while Shudai and Shuer are legitimate biological sons.

  Although they look similar, Shu Da is fat like a pig and has a violent temper. On the other hand, Shu Er is thin as firewood, with a gloomy aura surrounding his entire body.

  As the two quarreled, Shu Er inadvertently glanced at Chu Yun and suddenly a gleam of inspiration flashed in his eyes. He whispered to Shu Da, "Stop arguing! I've got an idea!"

  Shu Da knew that his second brother was always full of tricks, so he must have a plan in mind. He immediately perked up and asked, "What's the plan?"

  Shu Er didn't respond to him, but instead turned his head and looked at Chu Yun, shouting: "Hey! That Chu Yun, I heard you're doing very well in your studies, everyone praises your intelligence. Today, let's test you, if you can distinguish these egg varieties, I'll give you this bag of Di Sha Shi coins."

  As soon as the words fell, Shu Da immediately replied: "If you misidentified it and let me choose the wrong egg, you'll have to unconditionally exchange eggs!"

  After finishing speaking, the two brothers looked at each other with satisfaction, treating others as fools.

  The Earth Altar's Royal Sorcerer also couldn't help but secretly shake his head, suddenly remembering a proverb - fools are foolish because they always treat others as fools.

  People have differences, eggs are no exception. The demon beast eggs placed here also have their own strengths and weaknesses in terms of quality and potential.

  The master of the earth altar naturally knew that among them, the left one could hatch a sea explosion crocodile, which was the most valuable. The middle one was the egg of the green tooth snake, and its value was second only to the sea explosion crocodile. As for the fire fox egg, although it was not bad in color, but compared with the other two, it was far inferior.

  The quality of the eggs, good or bad, directly affects the performance of the adult ceremony, and is related to a person's future prospects. How could Chu Yun possibly agree to this condition, identify these strange eggs, and then hand over his own future?

  "Alright, I'll agree to it. But first, you have to hand over the Earthly Stone Coin in your possession." Chu Yun glanced at Shu Da and Shu Er, a hint of a smile flashing across her eyes as she nodded in agreement.

  "Huh?" The Demon King of the Altar was taken aback.

  "This idiot!"

  "A narrow-minded thing, haha!"

  Shu Da and Shu Er exchanged a glance, both secretly laughing in their hearts.

  "Fine, you win. You got what you wanted." Shu Er tried to put on a resentful expression, but the triumphant smile at the corner of his mouth completely gave him away.

  "Chu Yun, you'd better remember the conditions just now! If you admit your mistake, you'll have to exchange eggs!" Shu Da glared at Chu Yun with a nasty tone.

  Chu Yun smiled, took over the bag containing the Di Sha Shi coins, weighed it, and based on his past memories and experience, immediately estimated that there were about thirty coins.

  "Hurry up, you've taken our money, aren't you going to give us the eggs?" Shu Da urged.

  For a moment, whether it was Shu Da or Shu Er, or even the demon master of the land altar, they all focused their attention on Chu Yun.

  Chu Yun, dressed in a simple white shirt, still looked calm and serene. She blinked her black eyes, stretched out her slender fingers, pointed at the demon egg in front of her, and smiled slowly: "This one on the left, the egg is as big as a basin, indicating that this demon has an enormous body. The color is like the sea, calm and single, indicating that this egg is not a twin but a single Dan. There is a hint of ocean waves, which is a sign of the high quality of the aquatic demon's talent. This is the Sea Exploding Crocodile Demon Egg."

  Shu Da and Shu Er's eyes lit up with excitement: "Go on, go on!"

  Chu Yun smiled and continued, "The middle one is as big as a bowl, light green like grass, indicating that it is the egg of a wooden single child, nurturing a wooden beast. The egg has a glossy sheen, which is the characteristic of soft-bodied arthropod beasts. There are black spots on the eggshell, indicating toxicity. The egg body also faintly exudes the fragrance of fragrant grass, which is an indication of the high innate talent of the wooden beast. This is indeed the green snake demon egg."

  "As for the last one..."

  "Never mind, never mind. Hehe, I'll take the one on the left!" Shu Er suddenly interrupted Chu Yun's words, knowing two of them, and the remaining one was not the Fire Fox Egg? Shu Er had no interest in it at all, and directly opened his mouth, determined to grab the best one before everyone else.

  "Get out! That sea turtle egg is mine! When did you dare to snatch things from your big brother!" Shu Da's eyes widened in anger, his voice loud and fierce. With a sudden push, he sent Shu Er tumbling to the ground with a thud.

  "That old man, I'll choose this egg then." Shu Da suddenly took a few steps forward, almost pouncing on the left beast egg.

  Shu Er glared at Shu Da with a cold hum in her heart, quickly scrambling to her feet. She ran to the egg in the middle and said with a strange tone, "Grass Tooth Snake and Sea Exploding Crocodile are both of the same rank as demon beasts, it's still up to their future cultivation and growth. Hehehe... let's see, that old man, this young master will choose this one!"

  As he spoke, he stretched out his palm and patted the middle beast egg gently.

  "Hiss......" The beast egg suddenly emitted a thick green glow, as if the sound of a snake's hiss was coming from it.

  Shu's face suddenly turned pale, and he quickly withdrew his right hand. But immediately after, he became excited again: "Haha, I remembered! This is the fetal movement of the Lingguang! Mother said it was true, this green snake has a high innate talent, deep qualifications, following Ben Shao, it's also your good fortune!"

  He was so excited that he let it slip, but he didn't realize it yet. Shu Da was also immersed in joy, stroking the shell of the left beast with both hands, almost pressing his fat body onto it.

  "Mrs. Shu gave birth to these two good sons... hey!" The demonic master of the altar also didn't expose them, and disdainfully swept a glance at the two of them, then concentrated his gaze on Chu Yun's body. He couldn't understand why Chu Yun would give up these two high-quality demon beast eggs.

  "Could it be that this remaining Fire Fox egg has some other extraordinary use?" Thinking of this, the Earth Altar's Royal Beast Master once again glanced at the beast egg on the left.

  This demon beast egg has a bright color and clear red and white markings, making it a pretty good demon beast egg. However, compared to the other two, its inferiority is immediately apparent.
