Beastmaster: I'm really not a training master

Chapter 978 Teacher Zero's Thoughts

Li Qian and Teacher Ling emerged from the canyon.

Teacher Ling said, "The battle in the ruined city this time has greatly depleted my eight puppet pets."

"Next, these puppet beasts will need time to recover."

Li Qian nodded in agreement with Teacher Ling's words, "I understand. From now on, let's try not to resort to violence if we can avoid it."

"Ah."

Teacher Ling chimed in, "With my current strength, as long as I don't accidentally wander into any special ruins, I shouldn't encounter any more dangers within this eighth-level dimensional plane."

"Let's go, let's explore this eighth-level dimensional plane first and see if we can find a dimensional rift leading to the seventh-level dimensional plane."

And so, the two began to explore this eighth-level dimensional plane.

They were not exploring aimlessly.

Because Teacher Zero possesses the ability to sense energy fluctuations, their explorations are highly targeted and purposeful.

This went on for about five days.

Teacher Ling's puppet pets have mostly recovered.

In addition, they have also basically determined the approximate location of the dimensional rift leading to the seventh-level dimensional plane.

"Teacher Zero, do you mean that the dimensional rift leading to the seventh-level dimensional plane is inside the town ahead?" Li Qian asked.

At this moment, he and Teacher Zero stood in mid-air, looking at the abandoned town not far away.

“Based on my senses of energy fluctuations, there’s a high probability that there’s a dimensional rift in this abandoned town, and it’s most likely that it leads to the seventh-level dimensional plane,” Teacher Zero said.

The abandoned town in front of us has survived countless years and is still relatively well-preserved. Needless to say, it is definitely a dimensional relic.

Previously, the two of them had already devised a strategy: they would never enter any ruins unless absolutely necessary.

Even if it is suspected to be a relic, we will resolutely not enter.

The attack by the eight humanoid monkey-faced monsters in the ruined city had left a deep impression on them.

I still feel lingering fear.

Who knows if rushing in might trigger some kind of formation or bring about some unpredictable danger?

Although, in theory, even if such an abandoned town is dangerous, it cannot be compared with the ruined cities of the past.

But who can guarantee or say for sure about such things?

"Take your time, we have plenty of time, no need to rush," Li Qian said.

Upon hearing this, Teacher Ling nodded, agreeing with Li Qian's opinion. "Whether it's the ruined city from before or this abandoned town in front of us, even if there are still formations that can continue to support those humanoid monkey-faced monsters, there should be very few left."

"At worst, we'll use the 'boy who cried wolf' approach to test them. I believe it won't be long before we exhaust their energy."

As she said this, a hazy green light began to emanate from Teacher Zero's chest.

In the hazy green light, a huge butterfly, its body flowing with a color like jade, flew out.

It was the Emerald King Butterfly that Teacher Zero had placed in his chest.

"The Emerald King Butterfly is quite fast, and besides that, it is also a life-giving element. Even if it is trapped, it is unlikely to perish in a short time. Using it to test the waters is the most suitable option." Teacher Zero said, already ordering the Emerald King Butterfly to rush into the abandoned town.

A massive, emerald-green butterfly, gleaming with a hazy green light, plunged into the abandoned town. Moments later, four conspicuous pillars of light rose from the town's four sides.

Soon, from within these four pillars of light, four humanoid monkey-faced monsters, identical to those encountered earlier in the ruined city, slowly emerged.

Upon seeing the formation and the reappearance of an old friend, Li Qian and Teacher Ling were both shocked, yet they couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

It is clear that, based on the current situation, both the ruined city and the abandoned town are remnants of the same ancient civilization.

They left this strange protective array most likely to guard the dimensional rifts located in cities and towns.

Seeing that only four humanoid monkey-faced monsters appeared, Zero's eyes suddenly lit up.

The four-headed monster was still difficult to deal with, but it was much easier than before.

It's clear that the protective forces in this abandoned town are not as strong as those in the ruined city we encountered earlier.

This gave Teacher Ling a glimpse of a possibility.

Having probed the details of this abandoned town, Teacher Zero no longer hesitated and immediately took action.

She darted out at incredible speed and entered the town, where seven more puppet beasts appeared beside her.

Soon, Teacher Zero's eight puppet pets clashed with the four humanoid monkey-faced monsters guarding the abandoned town, and the battle was fierce and evenly matched.

Li Qian was outside the abandoned town. He stopped to watch and quickly noticed something was wrong.

To be precise, it was Teacher Zero's purpose.

Teacher Zero was seen commanding his three-headed pet beasts, fighting and retreating, trying his best to maneuver and restrain three of the four humanoid monkey-faced monsters.

Immediately afterwards, all the remaining puppet beasts joined forces to surround and deal with the remaining humanoid monkey-faced monster.

Boom boom boom...

rumbling...

bang bang bang...

It must be said that the humanoid monkey-faced monster is truly powerful, unleashing all sorts of skills as if they were free.

Flames, waves, earthen walls, wooden spikes, and metal cones were unleashed one after another, dazzling Li Qian.

This also made Li Qian fully understand why Teacher Ling had such a plan to target it.

Unexpectedly, this humanoid monkey-faced monster possesses all five elements, meaning it has virtually no weaknesses.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it covers all aspects.

Such monsters, though powerful and more difficult to deal with than ordinary divine-level pets, still failed to cause much trouble in the face of overwhelming numbers.

With Teacher Zero investing in five puppet pets, including herself, nothing unexpected happened.

About half an hour later, the humanoid monkey-faced monster was completely subdued and lost all power to resist.

Upon seeing this, Teacher Ling's eyes suddenly lit up. To avoid any possible accidents, she immediately commanded her five puppet beasts to drag the humanoid monkey-faced monster, which had completely lost its fighting ability, out of the array's coverage area.

After dragging the humanoid monkey-faced monster out of the array's range, she immediately commanded her five puppet beasts to support the other three, while she herself walked unhurriedly toward the humanoid monkey-faced monster.
