Beast Taming: Starting from Transmigration and Starting with a Cheat Code

"No, bro, are you serious?"

Zeng Guian swallowed hard; his previously obvious, effeminate smile had cracked.

"My brother and I are of one heart; how could I lie to you?"

Qin Ming sighed and pushed back with the same force as before.

Zeng Guian stumbled, perhaps because the blow to his heart was too heavy, and he fell directly to the ground.

Even his fallen figure exuded a sense of vicissitude, and Qin Ming couldn't bear to look at him closely; he only dared to open one eye to look.

There was no other way; Cangxuan was a wolf king with a free and proud soul, and Qin Ming couldn't possibly confine him to the Spirit Control Space for long—that would be too stifling.

Letting them roam freely in the ethereal realm is not a long-term solution.

Summer camp has only just begun, and it's been such a long time. I don't want Cangxuan to feel bad, so I'll just have to make the sacrifices for my friends.

Qin Ming's thinking was quite clear.

"So you're the real big shot, huh!" Zeng Guian suddenly stood up, angrily stating.

What do you mean? Qin Ming was puzzled.

"You haven't even formed a contract yet, and a spirit beast is willing to acknowledge you and follow you without any official status. What kind of extraordinary background and power must that require?"

There is endless envy and unspeakable bitterness.

Qin Ming looked at his friend, who was starting to get agitated and had a ferocious expression, and was disgusted by his wild imagination.

"Do you think it's possible that it's just my talent, or that I have all that charisma?"

Zeng Gui'an held his heart in one hand and pointed at Qin Ming with the other, remaining silent for a long time, clearly showing his disbelief.

"No, think about my rating; it doesn't have any external boosts like you're imagining!"

Qin Ming tried his best to clear his name; he was practically swearing an oath to the heavens.

"dog……"

"Swearing is wrong!" Qin Ming interrupted.

"Why should I curse? You've already made a contract with this little red dog?"

Seeing the fiery scales appear behind him, and recalling Zeng Gui'an's boastful words, Qin Ming, who had been steadily gaining the upper hand, panicked—this time, he was truly panicked…

If your eyesight is bad, you can donate them. That's terrifying.

If a disagreement is raised, nuclear weapons will be used; do they want to perish together?

Qin Ming's Adam's apple bobbed a few times. He picked up the baring Huo Lin, moistened his lips with saliva, and began to speak at an accelerated pace.

"He may not be human, but you're the real dog!"

"Even if you wanted to form a contract, your current level of mental strength isn't high enough!"

"Show me some respect and apologize!!"

Qin Ming's rapid-fire and emotionally charged speech made Zeng Gui'an realize something was wrong. He rubbed his eyes and looked at him carefully again.

"Oh dear, why does it have horns on its head? Sorry, I must have been mistaken!"

Zeng Guian bowed and apologized, and his attitude was quite good.

"Oh, it's a deer! Sorry, sorry!"

Qin Ming, who had caught his breath halfway through, didn't want to salvage the situation anymore. He was exhausted. Destruction was the only option...

Qin Ming closed his eyes and gave up struggling.

"Wow, Qin Ming, you're so funny~"

Opening one eye in disbelief, Huo Lin chuckled in her arms, showing no anger whatsoever.

?

Is he really that magnanimous? Has the sun risen in the west?

After experiencing dramatic ups and downs, Qin Ming, whose mentality had been shaken, had many questions in his mind, but he was too exhausted to show any emotion on his face.

"I won't let such weak ants get to my head. If I cared, I could wipe out all the spirit beasts that insult me."

Huo Lin explained casually.

Well, you're quite self-aware, Qin Ming thought, speechless.

"But why did you step in to put out the fire last time?" Qin Ming clearly remembered Huo Lin's intervention last time.

"Because I care about you, Qin Ming. You're different, your spirit beast is different, and you're someone my brother and I both acknowledge!"

As he spoke, Huo Lin waved his left forepaw, as if to give Qin Ming his approval.

Qin Ming's lips curled up slightly. He was in a terrible mood today, but he was inexplicably deceived by Huo Lin's sweet words.

You little rascal!

"Let me formally introduce you. This is Huo Lin. Although we don't have a contractual relationship, he's my partner, someone I consider family!"

"Oh, I'm Zeng Gui'an, Qin Ming's roommate, and also a close friend I could entrust my life to!"

Hearing this, Huo Lin finally looked Zeng Gui'an over properly.

That's more like it.

……

"Yan Hui, I heard your battalion has produced a rare talent?"

Wang Tianbing, a powerful figure among the younger generation, holds an important position in the Shanghai Spirit Master Association. He and Yan Hui are old friends, having established a friendship during their student days.

"Looks like we've alerted the higher-ups. What, are you here to verify information?" Yan Hui wasn't surprised by Wang Tianbing's arrival.

"An S+ rating requires certification from several parties. I'm considered to have arrived quickly; others are probably still on their way."

Wang Tianbing waved his sleeves and accepted the tea that Yan Hui had brewed.

"Enough with the small talk, tell me quickly, where is that precious only son?"

Yan Hui skimmed the foam off the tea, unhurriedly saying, "It's no fun telling you directly. Just use your eyesight and see for yourself."

He pointed to the students below who were running laps for exercise and gave a meaningful smile.

"Guess correctly and you'll win a prize. Want to have a bet?"

"You're acting a bit strange today, but... I'll bet! I'll wager ten catties of the first flush of your Ancient Spirit Tea Tree, and ten Spirit Crystals!"

Wang Tianbing tasted Yan Hui's tea; the taste was truly exceptional.

"Your bet is a bit unbalanced."

Yan Hui looked up at his old friend and said, "Then let's add a restriction: they can only observe from a distance, and you have to give your conclusion before they finish their morning run."

"Can!"

Even though he knew Yan Hui's words were a trap, Wang Tianbing still got carried away, partly due to his confidence in his own judgment.

A rare talent who can attract so much attention must have extraordinary abilities, standing out from the crowd.

Wang Tianbing squinted at Yan Hui, who remained calm and composed.

On the training ground.

"Qin Ming, you've improved quite quickly!"

"So-so. My running ability is only average, not as good as yours!" Qin Ming shook his head.

"It's only been a few days! At this rate, your ranking will be soaring before the training camp even ends!"

Everyone has high hopes for Qin Ming, except for Qin Ming himself.

He knew in his heart that today's significant breakthrough was due to the comprehensive feedback brought about by the contract with Cangxuan.

If his progress slows down later, or if Little Fatty suddenly has some stroke of luck, then it's entirely possible that he'll either stagnate or regress...

Thinking of this, Qin Ming felt a deep sense of melancholy.

But he didn't know that some people were on the verge of losing their guard because of his unassuming and ordinary life in the city.

"Damn it, Yan Hui, are you kidding me?"

"Is that S+ promising young talent really among them? Did you plan this all along and hide her beforehand?"

Wang Tianbing's voice suddenly rose, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"Am I that bad at playing games? Just admit you have bad eyesight and give me a conclusion already!"

Yan Hui's voice wasn't loud, but it was full of confidence. He tapped the table lightly with two fingers, as if to urge him on.

Now, Wang Tianbing shut up and pretended to be mute, feeling guilty.
