Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 122 Are you ready to become the strongest beastmaster?

Monday, October 9.

clear.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Hao walked out of his yard with sleepy eyes and stretched himself: "As soon as I open my eyes, I have to start working."

Jiang Yuntao, who was basking in the sun in the yard, heard this and replied with a smile: "Your job is much easier than ours."

He was busy with various tedious tasks in the college all day, but he had time to stay in Xuanhe Village and have a good rest these two days.

Fortunately, the accommodation conditions and services of this farm house were good, so he simply stayed here for two nights, waiting for the students to come down the mountain.

Zhang Hao curled his lips: "It doesn't matter how hard the work is, we are all just oxen and horses anyway."

Then, he squinted his eyes and looked at the mountains in the distance, and asked, "Teacher Jiang, your students should be coming down the mountain soon, right?"

"Yes." When talking about this topic, Jiang Yuntao's eyes flashed with worry, "I wonder how they are doing."

Although he had confidence in his students, this was Qinling Mountains after all, and there were dangers lurking on every side.

I don't ask for much, I just hope to return safely.

Not long after,

Wang Yuan, covered in dust, was the first to return to Good Luck Farmhouse. His clothes were dirty, his hair was messy, and his originally fair skin was slightly dark, making him look like a civil engineer who had just worked hard on the construction site for more than half a month.

As soon as he entered the yard, Wang Yuan ignored the surprised looks of the two people and directly picked up the mineral water on the table and drank it all in one gulp, with a happy smile gradually appearing on his face: "Great!"

Jiang Yuntao looked at Wang Yuan, who had obviously experienced a lot, with a funny face and asked, "How did you gain?"

"Don't mention it, teacher." Wang Yuan sat down on the stool. He was always very clean, but he didn't ask for a bath. Instead, he complained one after another, "Not long after we entered the mountain, we attracted a group of attendant bees."

"Stealing honey?" Jiang Yuntao asked.

"Yes," Wang Yuan smiled awkwardly, then his eyes widened and his words became increasingly fierce, "It's just stealing some honey, not digging up their ancestral graves, is it necessary to chase me for a whole day and night!!!"

Jiang Yuntao took a sip of tea and said, "You mean, you spent your time in the mountains chasing them?"

Wang Yuan avoided his gaze and whispered, "Yes."

Jiang Yuntao pursed his lips and said, "It's a good thing. At least you will know how to deal with the attendant bees when you encounter them in the future."

"I don't know." Wang Yuan said with a sad face, "I seem to have PTSD. When I sleep at night, there are buzzing sounds in my dreams. I shiver when I see them."

Jiang Yuntao was speechless for a moment.

Zhang Hao patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "Reward these attendant bees with a Flame Cloud Falcon and they will behave themselves."

"What?" Wang Yuan was stunned.

At the same time, students returned to the yard one after another. They looked similar to Wang Yuan, like wild people in the mountains, constantly complaining about their experiences.

"As soon as we entered the mountains, we provoked a group of skylarks, and they chased us for three whole mountains!"

“Three mountains!!!”

"A group of attendant bees is nothing. I saw a spiritual plant in the bamboo forest and thought it was a pleasant surprise. I didn't expect it to be discovered by a second-level Mu Mao panda. It ended up in a miserable way. It forced us to help cut down the bamboo. My arms are still sore!!!"

"Smile. Have you ever experienced the feeling of being chased by a group of Snow Cloud Wolves?"

After some communication, everyone found that other people's experiences were not much different from their own. The original depressed and frustrated emotions disappeared instantly, and they felt much more balanced psychologically. Instead, they argued about whose experience was the most miserable and thrilling.

Listening to the students' discussion silently, Jiang Yuntao's right hand, which was tightly holding the teacup, trembled slightly. He secretly reminded himself to stay calm: "After all, they have no experience in going into the mountains, nor in fighting in the wild. These situations are understandable."

"Understandable."

"Besides, Zhuang Jianbai hasn't come back yet, so he must have made a great gain."

Zhuang Jianbai, who has calmed down and transformed himself, will definitely gain huge rewards when he enters the mountains and forests.

"Lao Zhuang is back!"

Wang Yuan suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure entering the yard and immediately called out. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice - Zhuang Jianbai's clothes were neat and clean, his figure was as tall as a tall tree, and his aura was high and positive, which was in sharp contrast to them.

A faint smile finally appeared on Jiang Yuntao's face.

From this point of view, Zhuang Jianbai must have had a good harvest.

"Lao Zhuang, how was the harvest?" Wang Yuan asked loudly.

Facing many expectant gazes, Zhuang Jianbai shook his head at first, then nodded: "I met a second-level earth bear the day before yesterday afternoon, and I have been sparring with it during this period."

"Did we win?" This was the question that Wang Yuan was most concerned about.

Zhuang Jianbai smiled and said, "It's very powerful. My Yan Dong Dog is no match for it and didn't win."

After a pause, seeing the surprised looks on everyone's faces, he smiled and said, "But I have gained a lot. Failure after failure has taught me a lot and made me progress a lot."

"Teacher, I think I have the courage to fight that beastmaster."

A smile appeared on Jiang Yuntao's face again.

Very good, as long as you have this mindset, you will succeed in everything you do.

Zhang Hao raised his eyes and looked over: "Is that the wild earth bear with its cubs?"

"Yes." Zhuang Jianbai nodded.

Zhang Hao frowned slightly and said in surprise: "It seems that this Earth Bear has made a lot of progress during this period of time. I remember that when Brother Yuan encountered it, he defeated it in just a few minutes."

"By the way, Brother Yuan asked me to tell you that I'm sorry, he has something to do in Baokun City today, so he can't have the pet battle."

For a moment, the yard fell into deathly silence.

Zhuang Jianbai stood there blankly, with Zhang Hao's words echoing in his mind - he defeated it in just a few minutes.

In the afternoon,

Chen Yuan came to Baokun City again.

He took a taxi from the bus station and went to the hotel the association had booked for him.

Zhou Xu called yesterday, hoping that Chen Yuan could come to Baokun City as soon as possible to avoid road congestion on the eve of the holiday. In addition, Xuanhe Village is hundreds of kilometers away from Baokun City, so there is a fear of accidents.

Sitting in the back seat, a little head popped out of the chest pocket, and the twin concubines kept looking out the window with curious eyes.

Chen Yuan reached out and tapped its little head, smiling, "We are going into the city."

The driver noticed the interaction in the back seat, looked through the rearview mirror, and immediately asked in surprise: "Aren't you the guy who took the bus to the Beast Tamer Association last time?"

Chen Yuan was stunned: "It's you?"

"We are really destined to meet." The driver grinned.

The probability of getting the same taxi repeatedly in such a huge city like Baokun is very low.

Chen Yuan was surprised and asked: "Master, you still remember me?"

The driver laughed and said, "Because you were going to the Beast Tamer Association, and you have the look that can leave a deep impression on others."

Chen Yuan couldn't help but blush.

The driver asked again: "Are you coming here to participate in the competition?" "I guess so." Chen Yuan nodded.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Baokun City so lively." The driver sighed, glancing at the billboards and signs on both sides of the road, as well as the huge screen hanging on the top of the commercial plaza. "After the revival of spiritual energy, it feels like Baokun City has regained its vitality."

Chen Yuan nodded gently and looked out the window - every promotional column was printed with pictures and basic information of various pets, even including the necessary procedures and development paths to become a beastmaster.

In many corners, you can also see various advertisements promoting Taibai Cup:

[Are you ready to become the strongest beastmaster in Baokun City?]

[Starting from yesterday, starting from today, starting from the moment I became a beastmaster!]

[There is only one champion, but you and I are both excellent beastmasters]

But Chen Yuan's attention was attracted by the huge display screen. This is the most prosperous area in Baokun City, and many businesses will use this display screen for promotion.

Two huge black figures occupied most of the screen. From the outline, one could vaguely see that the figure on the left was more burly, standing with his hands on his chest, while the figure on the right was thinner and stood straight.

Behind the two black shadows, various kinds of pets appeared, densely packed together.

The driver noticed Chen Yuan's gaze through the rearview mirror and said with a smile: "It is said that our city's Beast Tamer Association has specially invited two powerful Beast Tamers as guests of the exhibition match. They will perform a pet battle at the opening ceremony tomorrow."

"Look, these two guests are hanging on this screen."

Chen Yuan burst out laughing.

It turns out that the dark shadow on the right is me.
Although Chen Yuan did not respond, the driver's voice did not stop, his tone was full of joy: "A few days ago, my company drew three tickets, and I touched it with my little hand, and wow, I actually drew one."

"It just so happens that my kid is a beastmaster, and his mom and I were planning to go and cheer for him, but we couldn't get any tickets. Luckily, we won one at the last minute, so now we can go and cheer for him in person."

The venue for the Taibai Cup is the Baokun City Gymnasium, which can accommodate more than 20,000 people. However, this is the first Beast Tamer Competition, and both Beast Tamers and ordinary people are very interested in it. Once the tickets were put on sale, they were sold out in an instant, and there was far from enough.

"By the way." The driver looked ahead and said, "My kid is going to participate in the audition on the first day. If you run into him, be gentle."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "I might not be able to beat him."

"How could that be possible?" The driver shook his head. "I have a very good eye for people. I can tell at a glance that you are a formidable beastmaster."

“I wish you good results.”

Soon,
After waving goodbye to the talkative driver, Chen Yuan walked into the hotel to check in.

After putting his luggage in the room, seeing that it was already evening, Chen Yuan finished his sumptuous dinner provided by the hotel and prepared to go out for a walk.

As a guest of the exhibition match, he does not need to rehearse, and just needs to follow the staff's instructions carefully tomorrow.

As we walked out of the hotel, the sky gradually darkened and brilliant neon lights replaced the sunlight to illuminate the streets.

This place is located in a prosperous area, and there are many people with their pets on the street, so Chen Yuan had no worries about letting his twin concubines show up.

"Groan."

The twin flower concubine with pink hair sat on Chen Yuan's shoulder. Entering the night state, it was not interested in anything around it and had none of the curiosity it had during the day.

It just wants to stay quietly by Chen Yuan's side.

But when many people see the petite and cute twin concubines, they often scream first, then run over quickly, take photos with them, or want to touch them.

The twin concubines did not respond, but just stared at them with those distant and cold eyes, immediately dissuading a large group of people.

Chen Yuan took the opportunity to touch the pets he had never met before. Hearing the system prompts ringing in his mind, the smile on his face became more and more enthusiastic.

"Big cities are still better. There are more opportunities in big cities," he said with emotion.

But when he saw that the twin concubines' expressions were getting colder and colder, he said decisively: "You'd better hide in your pocket."

The little guy's appearance was so attractive that Chen Yuan was even afraid that someone would secretly kidnap it when he wasn't paying attention.

Perhaps because the competition was approaching, there were a lot of rare beastmasters in Xuanhe Village, and the battle area designated by the association was crowded with people.

The battle areas are converted from various venues, both open-air and indoor, but most of the indoor areas require payment to enter.

Deafening cheers rang in his ears, and Chen Yuan squeezed in to take a look. The pets of the beastmasters on both sides were obviously not strong, but the battle was fierce.

Coupled with the warm cheers, it really makes people's blood boil.

There were also beastmasters watching the battle, some complaining that the previous command was wrong or not exciting enough, and some even shouted "I can do it too."

After watching for a while, Chen Yuan felt bored and slowly walked back to the hotel.

Chen Yuan was lying on the soft big bed, while Coke was lying next to the huge French window, staring blankly at the brightly lit skyscrapers outside the window; Huo Hua was standing aside with his eyes closed, resting to gather his strength for tomorrow's battle; the twin concubines were sitting cross-legged in front of a mobile phone that was taller than themselves, watching a video in silence - a detailed breeding plan for wood-type pets.

Chen Yuan was watching the promotional video of Taibai Cup on his spare mobile phone.

The promotional video was beautifully produced and very passionate, earning many likes from netizens in the comment section.

“It’s on fire!!!”

"Of course, Baokun City will finally make a promotional video. Tears well up in my eyes!"

"I'm going to audition tomorrow, friends, wish me good luck."

"By the way, who are those two mysterious guests? There is no news at the moment."

"No matter who he is, he is still a beastmaster from Baokun City. As long as he can put on a wonderful fight, that's enough."

Before he knew it, Chen Yuan fell into a deep sleep.

"Chirp."

In the darkness, Sparks suddenly opened his eyes and looked sharply at Coke standing beside him.

"Ouch?"

Seeing the big sister staring at him with such eyes, Coke felt inexplicably nervous and spoke out.

"Choo Choo Choo."

This game is very important to us, and we must make adequate preparations.

"Ouch."

The big sister is right!
"Chirp."

We're out training now.

"Ouch?"

Coke looked at the pitch-black outside and was stunned for a moment.

But seeing that the big sister had already flown to the door, it gritted its teeth, followed lightly, stood up its upper body, and opened the door with its claws.

Then, Coke picked up the room card with his mouth and followed the leader out of the room.

"Yin~"

The twin flower concubines opened their purple eyes, stared at the direction they left for a long time, and then slowly closed their eyes.

In the monitoring room,

Looking at the Wind-Condensing Hound pressing the elevator button on the screen, and the Flame-Cloud Falcon beside him, the security guard rubbed his eyes and said in surprise, "Ah?"
