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

Sunlight filters through the layers of leaves of the spiritual plant, casting dappled shadows in the bedroom.

Qin Ming squatted down, gently patted the still trembling Xiao Bao, and comforted him, "You're mistaken, it's just that it looks a bit like him."

The school bully cat has been behaving quite well these days, not only offering tributes but also having a hidden purpose of attracting Xuan Jin. Qin Ming has already acknowledged his existence and naturally doesn't want him to have any conflict with Xiao Bao.

They are all sentient beings, so surely they wouldn't commit any tragedy because of instinct?

Thinking about this, Qin Ming wasn't really sure himself.

"Eek~ Of course a mouse can tell the difference," Xiao Bao grinned, hugging his chubby self with trembling little paws. "But that thing has a lot of mouse scent on it. Mice... mice can sense the cries of their own kind..."

Qin Ming was taken aback upon hearing this, only then noticing that there was indeed a faint resentment lingering on the rat-shaped treasure.

"Meow, that was made by the cat on purpose," the school bully cat said smugly, completely unaware of the seriousness of the problem. "Otherwise, how could it be so well-shaped?"

How could its appearance possibly be used as a lure for cats?

Qin Ming slapped his forehead, realizing that he had overlooked the hidden food chain relationships among spirit beasts.

Especially for spirit beasts like Xiao Bao, which evolved from ordinary animals, their perception in this regard will only be more acute.

"Cat, Xiao Bao is an important member of our family," Qin Ming solemnly instructed, his tone serious. "Please watch your words and actions, and don't deliberately scare him."

The school bully cat instinctively wanted to bristle in protest, but the impatient stomping of Tianze Shenglu behind him was too oppressive.

He finally remembered that he didn't have the final say in this territory, so he reluctantly lowered his head and said, "Meow, I know."

After confirming that the school bully cat wasn't just going through the motions, Qin Ming said gently to Xiao Bao, "If you still feel unwell, you can go back to the Spirit Control Space to rest."

Reassured by Qin Ming, Xiao Bao became much bolder. He curiously peeked out, wanting to see how the Holy Deer would handle the situation.

Seeing that Xiao Bao had calmed down, Qin Ming knew what was going on. He skillfully dialed the number, and this time it was answered quickly: "Hello, the formation has exploded. Could you come over and help out when you have time?"

Xuan Jin: "..."

Qin Ming added helplessly, "I'm not joking, I'm serious."

Xuan Jin remained silent for a longer time, trying to understand the current situation—how could the concealment formation he had carefully set up just yesterday explode so easily?

Qin Ming couldn't wait any longer, so he extended an invitation: "The cat's here, you can pet it."

Xuan Jin was indeed tempted: "I'll be there right away."

Qin Ming felt relieved.

In fact, Qin Ming had already understood and roughly learned the basic version of the concealment formation yesterday, and thought that he would not need to trouble others for future maintenance.

But plans can't keep up with changes, and today's version is going to be upgraded.

After much deliberation, Qin Ming decided to continue calling for reinforcements.

Practice makes perfect, and Xuan Jin arrived exceptionally quickly this time.

But when he saw the completely renovated plant layout in the dormitory, his usually calm and indifferent expression almost cracked.

"this……"

Xuan Jin's gaze moved from the jade vines that covered the entire wall to the spirit spring system that was automatically watering the plants, and finally landed on the exotic flowers and plants that exuded rich spiritual energy.

He took out an exquisite compass-like instrument and began measuring the spiritual energy level in the room.

When he saw the pointer swing wildly and finally stop at an astonishing number, Xuan Jin earnestly advised Qin Ming, "Even if my formation is upgraded, it can't withstand your rate of modification."

"This was truly an accident. There won't be a next time," Qin Ming said, rubbing his hands together apologetically.

But you said it was an accident yesterday, Xuan Jin pursed his lips, unsure whether to believe it or not, but it's always unpleasant to have your hard work destroyed.

Until I caught a glimpse of the school bully cat approaching me out of the corner of my eye, how could this elegant and plump cat be so endearing?

Xuan Jin glanced at it several times with amusement, and suddenly felt that it wouldn't be so bad if this kind of accident happened a few more times.

Having figured things out, the "clean-up master" began to focus on upgrading the formation. Qin Ming, on the other hand, stood aside, openly learning from the master.

Xuan Jin's technique was even more skillful and sophisticated than the tutorials online.

Xuan Jin finished in 19 minutes and 39 seconds. This speed is much faster than yesterday.

"Awesome!" Qin Ming gave a heartfelt thumbs up.

Xuan Jin nodded slightly, but his gaze unconsciously drifted toward the school bully cat.

This time, his cat-petting technique had improved a lot, from awkward tentative exploration to smooth caresses.

The school bully cat comfortably squinted its eyes and purred, until the 20th minute when it impatiently flicked its tail and jumped off his lap.

Watching Xuan Jin's light and carefree figure as he left, Qin Ming seemed to be deep in thought.

Only then did he notice that there were more than a dozen missed calls from Zeng Gui'an on his phone.

Although the signal was unstable due to interference from the Holy Deer's domain, the sheer number of missed calls in just half an hour still made Qin Ming feel uneasy.

Is Zeng Guian alright?

I called back, but no one answered.

As the sun began to set, Qin Ming saw Zeng Gui'an, who had a bruised and swollen face, at the dormitory entrance.

"They...they're not human!" The voice arrived before the people did.

Zeng Guian limped over, his voice trembling with tears, "That Xiao Lie, he challenged me to a fight right away! And Wen Jinyu, on the surface he was trying to mediate, but the ideas he came up with were all incredibly malicious..."

"If I only get a 10-minute break before starting the next round, would I still be at my current level if I could review and improve during that 10-minute break?"

Qin Ming nodded, acknowledging the other party's self-awareness.

"Didn't Little Fatty help?" Qin Ming asked, puzzled.

"They were testing the strength of my spirit beasts, and Little Fatty couldn't get involved! Besides, Little Fatty was also taken away for testing alone," Zeng Guian sighed.

"When they finally let me go, I really thought I wouldn't be able to come back. It was Little Fatty who offered to see me off."

Just as Qin Ming was about to nod, a bad premonition suddenly welled up inside him.

"Little Fatty brought me back, in less than half a second, like teleportation, and then I threw up all over the place!"

Qin Ming: "..."

"I arrived at the dormitory entrance half an hour ago. It took me half an hour to walk those short 100 meters!" Zeng Guian's eyes reddened as he said this.

Qin Ming: "…………"

Qin Ming felt a headache coming on as Zeng Guian made tearful accusations.

Putting aside the chubby kid's influence, the school team's training seems overly rigorous.

"Do you need me to go with you next time?" Qin Ming pondered whether he should seek revenge. Rationally, it wasn't appropriate, but emotionally, Zeng Guian had indeed suffered too much.

"It's alright, just get along well with Tianze Shenglu."

"I...I can do it myself!" Zeng Guian said firmly.
