My Card Beast Taming Game

Lu Qingning was also very surprised by his growing strength. It was strange how someone could improve so much every day.

Is he cheating?

Zhou Chen explained that he had never turned it off.

Chapter 128: The Origin of All Laws (15/104)

The ferry's whistle blared.

After leaving Bitao Island, Zhou Chen and the others leaned against the railing, gazing at the bustling coastline whose outline was beginning to emerge.

The Secret Realm Exam is tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM. If we leave at the last minute, there won't be enough time. There are no direct buses from Bichao Island to Shendu Academy; we have to transfer to a boat on the mainland.

The entire journey takes three to four hours.

There's no way around it, the capital is just too big. Its land area alone is equivalent to a province in my previous life, not even counting the coastal part.

“Zhou Chen will stay at my place tonight. I’ll squeeze in with Hanbao and the others.”

As the ship was about to dock, Lu Qingning reminded him.

The well-funded Shen Du Academy will undoubtedly provide students with independent accommodations, but there will be distinctions based on grade level, treatment, and other factors.

Due to her outstanding performance at the summer camp, Lu Qingning obtained the highest-class two-story villa with front and back yards among the first-year students during negotiations with Shen Du Academy.

Han Baobao is a slightly lower grade; it's a townhouse.

The next level down is high-rise apartments, which certainly have a large interior space, but ultimately the environment is not as good as that of a villa.

The three types of housing benefits symbolize three levels, most directly highlighting the competition among students.

I heard there are even better benefits, but those are no longer available to lower-grade students.

Zhou Chen: "Actually, I..."

"Don't be so picky! We have a house for you to live in, why are you being picky!"

Lu Qingning interrupted him.

Han Baobao laughed and said, "Zhou Chen probably misunderstood. Ningning hasn't stayed there yet. There's no trace of her living there."

"I see……"

Zhou Chen suddenly realized.

Lu Qingning's ears turned red, and she slapped his back hard, "What are you doing all this time?!"

Zhou Chen remained silent, knowing he could withstand the small slap.

The dock was as crowded as ever.

Although Shen Du Yuan stopped accepting applications yesterday, a considerable number of people still rushed over.

Although Lu Qingning and her friends didn't have a car, as new students, they were able to arrange for a private car to pick them up and drop them off. As the four of them stood by the roadside waiting for the car, they attracted a lot of attention.

Han Baobao teased again: "Look, this is Ningning's charm. She attracts attention just by standing on the street. Someone better watch out."

"I think someone's about to go into heat! Hmph! Let me take a closer look!"

Before Zhou Chen could react, Lu Qingning was the first to jump out, grabbing Han Baobao's face and squeezing it wildly in embarrassment and anger, causing the latter to beg for mercy immediately.

"Waaaa, I was wrong, Ningning~"

"Begging for mercy is useless! I think you're just too idle!"

The two were laughing and joking around, which soon affected the innocent Mei Xian next to them.

Zhou Chen did not participate in the whole process, but looked around warily.

This caught Lu Qingning's attention.

What are you looking at?

“Duomo Baigao.” He paused, then recounted how he and Dharma King Ni had searched for him using the marks.

Han Baobao, who was holding Mei Xian's shoulder, said, "Zhou Chen, you're getting such good treatment. Is Duomu Baigao Vice Dean Bai's spirit beast?"

"Bai Shounian?" Lu Qingning seemed to recognize the vice dean as well.

Han Baobao nodded.

Lu Qingning said, "Then Zhou Chen is definitely going to get into the Array Domain Academy. I remember Bai Shounian was the vice dean who came from the Array Domain Academy."

She introduced this person to the puzzled Zhou Chen.

There are two types of vice deans in Shen Du Academy. One type is the vice dean of the entire Card Master Academy, which is a Level 2 professional title. The other type is the vice dean of a branch academy such as Arena or Secret Realm, which is a Level 4 professional title.

There are ten vice deans with the second-level professional title like Bai Shounian in the entire Divine Capital Academy, and only three of them are currently in office. Without exception, they are not far from becoming King-level Card Masters.

Among them, Bai Shounian is the most likely to make a breakthrough.

"That's great! This is great!"

Lu Qingning nodded repeatedly, "It means he thinks highly of you, which is a good thing."

Han Baobao laughed and said, "Zhou Chen will have a strong backer in the future, so don't forget to help us out when the time comes."

Mei Xian remained silent, but there was a hint of envy in her eyes.

Zhou Chen didn't think it was anything special.

He hates being stared at.

How could Zhou Chen politely decline the mark? After much deliberation, he felt that since he couldn't communicate with Bai Shounian, he might have to ask the Unicorn Chow Chow for help.

They are all spirit beasts and come from the same academy, so they should be able to talk to each other, right?

While she was pondering, the car that Lu Qingning had called arrived.

It was a luxury minibus.

The interior is quite luxurious, with a total of eight seats, each of which is large and soft.

The driver was naturally a faculty member of Shendu Academy, but judging from his ordinary appearance, he was probably not a truck driver.

Shen Du Yuan is not luxurious enough!

Zhou Chen muttered to himself as he looked out the window when his phone suddenly vibrated.

The lock screen shows that someone has added him as a friend.

The name in the notes is——

[Your beloved Dharma King Ni Uncle]?

Zhou Chen was stunned. After clicking to accept the friend request, the other party quickly sent a message.

Dharma King Ni: "Zhou Chen, when are you planning to come to school? I'd like to treat you to a meal."

Zhou Chen: "...You can even use the internet?"

His Holiness the Dharma King: "You're very rude! What do you mean I can use the internet? I can speak, why can't I use the internet?"

Below it was a meme of an angry puppy.

Zhou Chen: "I was wrong.jpg"

Zhou Chen: "I'm here now, and I'm going to the first-year dormitory area with my friend."

Dharma King Ni: "Send me your location! Dharma Heaven gave me a lot of pocket money these past two days, and I even treated your friends!"

Zhou Chen: "Let me ask for their opinions first."

He looked at Lu Qingning and the others who were talking, "The Dharma King Ni said he wanted to come and treat us to a meal, you..."

Han Baobao replied without hesitation, "Of course! Is it just one? Is Teacher Fatian coming?"

Zhou Chen: "I guess they won't come."

Lu Qingning examined him closely and said, "Did you give it some kind of spell? Why does it keep trying to cling to you?"

He wants to know that too.

Zhou Chen secretly grumbled to himself, then sent the location that Lu Qingning had shared with him to the Unicorn Chow Chow.

One-horned Chow Chow: "It's so far... why don't you come pick me up?"

It sent me a location without warning.

Zhou Chen: '...'

Well, they've already offered to treat us to a meal.

He walked over to the driver and showed him the location, saying, "Driver, could you please go here?"

"Hehehe, okay—"

The driver chuckled and looked down, then his expression changed slightly: "Young man, my car can't go that way."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen replied without hesitation, and a few seconds later asked the driver, "What is your license plate number?"

They relayed the minibus's license plate number and quickly obtained permission to enter the area.

Actually, it was the same Guidian Lan Palace that Zhou Chen rode his electric scooter into last time. As the minibus approached, Lu Qingning said, "Shen Du Yuan was called Wan Fa Zong a long time ago, and this place is the core area of ​​the sect."

Zhou Chen: "All laws?"

Han Baobao: "There are ten thousand kinds of array domains."

So that's how the myriad laws work.

Zhou Chen understood.

Soon, the minibus picked up the Chow Chow at the designated location. As soon as it got on the bus, it saw Lu Qingning and the others, and whispered in Zhou Chen's ear, "Which one is your girlfriend?"

"What's it to you?"

He glared at the fat dog.

Chapter 129: The Tiger King's Wedding (16/104)

The appearance of the one-horned Chow Chow shocked Lu Qingning and the other two.

While it's common for spirit beasts to shrink in size for easier movement, they had indeed rarely seen one like this...

They don't care about their image.

Dharma King Ni?

This is clearly a chubby, fat Chow Chow! It just has a horn on it!

It even sticks out its tongue!

The Chow Chow noticed their gazes and quickly withdrew its bright red tongue. "Your friend's gaze doesn't seem very friendly... You're Lu Qingning, right?"

It trotted all the way to Lu Qingning's feet, looked up and carefully recognized her, then said, "Wow! It really is you! I saw you once before, but I almost didn't recognize you."

Upon hearing this, the others all looked at her.

Lu Qingning lowered her head and asked, "Do you know me?"

"Of course! There aren't many noteworthy people among this year's freshmen, but you're one of them."

The Chow Chow walked back to Zhou Chen's side and jumped onto the empty seat next to him as if they were old friends. "You know Zhou Chen? What a coincidence!"

Han Baobao said with a smile, "They're childhood sweethearts!"

"That's it!"

The Chow Chow turned its head and glanced at Zhou Chen, who also glanced at it. It then looked away and said, "Pretty good!"

Following the directions of the unicorn Chow Chow, the minibus drove into Little Divine Capital, turning left and right before turning into a shop without a sign.

It was the first to get off the road: "This is a restaurant run by a senior truck driver. If you're lucky, you might even get to eat some of his dishes."

"A top-tier card master as a chef?"

Zhou Chen never expected that after the cake shop opened by the intermediate card master, he would see the restaurant opened by the senior card master, and might even be personally cooking.

Mei Xian was just as surprised as he was, while Lu Qingning and Han Baobao seemed unfazed.

The Chow Chow explained, "At the intermediate and advanced levels, every bit of improvement in mental strength comes at a great cost. Therefore, everyone tries to please themselves and keep their emotions upbeat, which is helpful for meditation."

Compared to risking your life to acquire various rare and precious materials, it takes far less effort to make yourself happy.
