Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 214 Chen Yuan: I am just an ordinary beastmaster

The next day,

in the hotel.

"Cola, this is your driver's license. You must carry it with you whenever you drive." Chen Yuan handed a document to Coke. When he opened it, he saw a photo of Coke grinning.

After passing Subject 3 yesterday morning, Coke seized the opportunity and took Subject 4 directly in the afternoon.

With the solid foundation laid in Subject 1, Coke still passed the exam easily even without much study.

Of course, this attitude of not studying hard before the exam was reprimanded by Chen Yuan. It has been punished by not being able to drink "Coke" for a week. Everyone should take this as a warning.

Early this morning, Chen Yuan got his brand new driver's license.

"Aoao!" Cola was extremely excited and bit the driver's license. He first jumped on the spot, then ran around Chen Yuan several times. His shaking tail looked like a floating dandelion.

Coke came in front of the big sister as if showing off, his eyes filled with satisfaction and pride.

Although Big Sister is more powerful than me, she doesn’t have a driver’s license!

A pet without a driver's license is destined not to be a good pet!

"Chirp." Sparks glanced at Coke, nodded at it to congratulate it, and then closed his eyes.

Today's Spark exudes a terrifying aura all the time. It has reached a critical period and may break through to the third level at any time. It must always be in the best condition.

Cola felt bored by Sparks' attitude. He shook his head and looked through the window to the distant east.

It would be nice if the ducks were here.

In that way, I can share the joy of getting a driver's license. Yaya will definitely take out her treasured spirit fish, and Diandian Flying Cat will also find out the fruits hidden in various dark corners.

"Ow"

Coke lay on the carpet, its previous excitement had long since vanished. It was like a wilted dogtail grass. The excitement in its eyes quickly faded, and a feeling of boredom surged into its heart.

It turns out that only the process of taking the driver's license test is exciting, but getting the driver's license is boring.

"No, here's your phone."

The master's voice sounded in his ears, and Coke looked up blankly.

"Let's video chat with Yaya and the others." Chen Yuan smiled slightly.

Coke's ears suddenly stood up, excitement and excitement flashed in his eyes. He first pounced on Chen Yuan, and at the same time, his paws slid out layers of menus and dialed the video.

As a ringtone sounded, Chen Weiyi appeared on the screen. He smiled and said, "Coke? What are you doing?"

"Ahhh!" Coke yelled twice.

Chen Weiyi seemed to understand Kele's cry and called out to the outside: "Yaya, Kele is looking for you."

"quack!"

Before you see the duck, you hear its voice. Runrun Duck's head quickly squeezed into the screen, and when it saw Coke, it excitedly shouted: "Quack, quack, quack?"

"Ouch!"

"Gah!"

"Ow!"

Then, Coke picked up his driver's license, and Runrun Duck couldn't help but widen his eyes with surprise and admiration in his eyes.

So awesome!

How did you do that?

RunRun Duck's reaction provided Coke with full emotional value. Its interest gradually increased, its head slightly raised, and even its originally wilted big tail began to sway from side to side.

After a while, Diandian Flying Cat also came close to the screen and had a cordial conversation with Coke, who had been away from home for a long time, and told him about the interesting things that happened during this period.

"Dian Dian Flying Cat, have you gained weight again?" Chen Yuan's voice sounded quietly. The first second that Diandian Flying Cat heard the voice, he turned around and fled the scene quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the figure of Diandian Flying Cat had disappeared.

Run Run Duck sighed helplessly: "Quack."

Why should you be afraid of the farmer duck?
As long as I, Duckling, just eat and wait for death every day and turn a deaf ear to what the farmer says, I will never be afraid of the farmer.

"YaYa, have you been in trouble recently?" Chen Yuan asked.

Runrun's eyes showed panic, and the next second he covered his ears with his wings, and then blinked at the farmer: "Huh?"

The signal is bad. What are you talking about, farmer?

Chen Yuan sneered: "I hope everything will be normal when I return to the farm."

Letting Coke continue chatting with Yaya, Chen Yuan began to pay attention to the relevant reports of the Dafeng Cup.

Today is the last day of the auditions. After two days of fierce competition, many powerful beastmasters have emerged. Needless to say, old acquaintance Zhuang Jianbai has defeated every opponent with overwhelming force and is already one of the favorites to win the championship.

In addition, Chen Yuan also saw many familiar faces, such as the unlucky couple Lin Hongwei and Gong Jia, and the good sisters Li Qing and Yang Yue. They won consecutive victories with their outstanding performances, and it was a foregone conclusion that they would enter the knockout stage.

If you have watched most of the competition carefully, you will find that almost all the students of Yunhua Beastmaster Academy performed well, and it does not seem to be difficult for them to enter the knockout round. Some students even said in front of reporters that the intensity of the auditions was far inferior to that of their academy ranking competition.

The person in charge of the competition committee just smiled coldly and said that tomorrow's knockout round would be the beginning of cruelty.

In addition to these college students, there are also many outstanding civilian beastmasters. They have not systematically learned the knowledge of beast taming, but have their own unique understanding and amazing sensitivity in pet battles, and their winning rate against college students is not low.

Of course, such people are always a minority.

"There are still two days before the main competition. Sparks should be able to break through to the third level." Chen Yuan thought secretly as he looked at Sparks who was resting with his eyes closed.

So far, no contestant has sent out a third-level pet, but the possibility of using it as a trump card cannot be ruled out.

It has been several days since the first high-level beastmaster was born, but Chen Yuan specifically asked Zhou Xu that as of now, the number of high-level beastmasters in Donghuang does not exceed double digits.

Obviously, the birth rate of high-level beastmasters is much slower than that of mid-level beastmasters.

After all, passing the certification of a high-level beastmaster requires not only a breakthrough in meditation level, but also the possession of two third-level pets.

"If Sparks and Coke's breakthrough speed is faster than expected, I might be able to make it into the top 50." Chen Yuan is full of expectations for this.

From that day on, other beastmasters who had registered through special channels began to check into Chen Yuan's hotel one after another. He met Consultant Shi, who trembled in front of him, and also ran into Nie Li.

"Who are the participants in your Eighth Branch?" Chen Yuan was a little curious.

Nie Li's answer surprised Chen Yuan: "All the captains of the ten teams will participate."

In this regard, Nie Li carefully explained: "For us, participating in competitions is also an important way to make progress, and this way is very safe and without danger."

"That's right." Chen Yuan nodded.

"Advisor Chen, I look forward to seeing you on the field." Nie Li looked straight at Chen Yuan, his tone as light as ever, but Chen Yuan sensed a hint of fighting spirit in it.

Obviously, most of the excellent beastmasters have one common characteristic - a strong desire to fight.

Whenever their eyes meet with other Beast Tamers, or whenever they spot a powerful Beast Tamer, they will invite him to a battle without hesitation.

It makes Chen Yuan look like a gangster.

In addition to these contestants, Zhang Hao also came to Fengcheng.

He has been very busy these days, busy expanding the farm, so he has no time to participate in the competition.

"Since you came all the way here to watch the game, what about your farm house?" Chen Yuan asked.

Zhang Hao chuckled: "My girlfriend is helping to take care of it. Anyway, the operation is on the right track. With my girlfriend and my parents here, there won't be any problems."

Chen Yuan closed the door expressionlessly: "If you have a girlfriend, get out."

Zhang Hao pushed open the door and slipped in through a crack: "Hey, Brother Yuan, I came all the way here to cheer you up."

After a pause, he changed the subject and asked, "How are the preparations going?"

"It's okay." Chen Yuan replied.

Zhang Hao: "Then it looks like the championship is secured."

Chen Yuan: “?”

Zhang Hao explained: "Based on my understanding of you, if you say you are not sure, it means you are a little sure. If you say it is okay, it means you are very confident."

The next morning, the elimination round officially began, and Chen Yuan and Zhang Hao went to the venue specially to participate.

Compared to the auditions, the intensity of the knockout rounds has been significantly increased, and since it is a 2V2 battle, the tolerance rate is higher, but the intensity of the competition has also increased.

Zhuang Jianbai's road to promotion was still very easy. He crushed his opponents all the way and easily entered the main competition.

Lin Hongwei stumbled all the way and was nearly eliminated, but fortunately he performed exceptionally well in the last game, defeating his opponent and advancing into the main competition.

His girlfriend Gong Jia was slightly weaker and was eliminated early.

Yang Yue's strength was even worse. She was ruthlessly crushed in the first round of the elimination match. The Yunzong Fox, which she was proud of, was no match at all and was eliminated.

However, Li Qing's strength was beyond Chen Yuan's expectations. He defeated a number of opponents with the help of two small snakes and advanced to the main competition with relative ease.

Chen Yuan silently said in his heart: "Sparks, Coke, if you encounter a snake pet in the competition, it will depend on your performance."

In addition to these familiar faces, Chen Yuan also saw the bounty hunter Huo Hong.

His strength has improved a lot compared to the last time they met. With the help of the Qinglan Hunting Dog, he actually made it into the main competition. Although the process was a bit thrilling, the result was good.

As a result, Chen Yuan discovered that several of his acquaintances had entered the main competition.

But the main competition was even more brutal, and in the end only six players could enter the final and join the two players from special channels.

Chen Yuan estimated that apart from Zhuang Jianbai, he would not be able to see any other familiar faces in the finals.

Just one day before the start of the competition, Manager Zhang called and couldn't contain his excitement: "Consultant Chen, our ad is a hit!"

The advertisement that Manager Zhang mentioned is a series of shots of Coke, such as its calm and confident look when practicing driving, and its full marks in subjects one to four. These were edited into a video and posted online to enhance the reputation of the driving school.

But Manager Zhang never expected that this video would be widely circulated on the Internet at an unimaginable speed, and the number of likes would soar like a bull market stock.

Chen Yuan clicked on the video released by Xiangrui Driving School. The number of likes exceeded 100,000 and it was on the hot search list in the city.

"I came here because of his reputation. Who is Bruce?"

"The first pet in the country to obtain a driver's license!"

"What a handsome wind hound. It makes me want to be a dog too."

"The person was at the scene, Lu Hao encountered this dog during the live broadcast, and Lu Hao died, but the dog passed with full marks." "I'm very curious, what kind of animal trainer can train such a smart wind hound?"

Of course, it’s a beastmaster as smart and handsome as me.

Chen Yuan answered secretly, then handed the phone to Coke, letting it enjoy the praise from netizens.

Manager Zhang quickly sent another message: "Advisor Chen, several people have contacted me to ask if Wind Hound will accept the advertisement?"

"Huh?" Chen Yuan was stunned, then looked at Coke in surprise.

You have made great progress, you can even take on advertising jobs.

But Chen Yuan quickly shook his head: "Help me reject them."

He is not short of money, nor does he intend to let Coke attract too much attention from netizens.

Coke is a creature that easily gets carried away by success. If it becomes popular on the Internet and is watched by countless netizens all the time, then any small action or detail it makes in public will be infinitely magnified, causing trouble.

After this episode, Chen Yuan took Sparks and Coke to the hotel’s own training room to prepare for tomorrow’s game.

The main competition will last for two days. The thirty-two players participating in the special channel will compete for two final places in a 2V2 format. The winner will advance and the loser will be eliminated directly. There will be no revival match.

Therefore, in order to successfully advance to the finals, Chen Yuan must win four games in a row.

Chen Yuan is full of confidence in this.

In the training room,

"Spark, flame energy attack."

"Chirp!"

Sparks hissed loudly, and it hovered in the air above the open-air training room. Its wings spread wildly, and flames burst out from every inch of its skin. As it dived towards the ground, the flames dragged out a comet-like trail of fire. At that moment, even the surrounding space was distorted by the rolling heat wave.

"Ow~"

Seeing the big sister's move, Coke swallowed his saliva secretly and quickly started walking on the wind. His swift figure rushed across the ground, turning into an afterimage that was difficult to capture with the naked eye.

boom!
The flame energy suddenly attacked the place where Coke had just been. A deafening explosion sounded in his ears, and air waves mixed with heat waves spread in all directions, dissipating after a while.

Looking at the terrifying destructive power caused by this skill, Chen Yuan smiled and nodded: "Not bad, we can give them a surprise."

After Chen Yuan's guidance and supervision, Sparks finally broke through to the third level last night, and his proficiency in [Flame Energy Assault] was also raised to the perfect level.

As a result, Sparks' overall combat power has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Before Sparks' breakthrough, Coke was still trying to compete with him for dozens of rounds, and sometimes even had the upper hand.

But once Spark broke through, Coke, who was at the peak of the second-level great perfection, was no match for Spark at all. Once hit by the skill just now, Coke knew that his fate would be very miserable.

He will die, he will really die!
In this way, Chen Yuan, holding the Coke that is infinitely close to the third level and the Spark that is already the third level, is almost invincible in this Dafeng Cup.

Unless unless other contestants also have third-level pets.

This is not impossible.

Because the little guys have grown to this point, from stage one to stage two and even to stage three, and have hardly encountered any major bottlenecks, the entire growth trajectory has been very smooth.

Maybe it's a breakthrough after a battle, or maybe it's an inexplicable breakthrough after waking up one day, in any case, it's a natural result.

After the spark broke through to the third level, Chen Yuan's mental strength increased significantly, and a breakthrough was within reach.

Next, it depends on when Coke breaks through. Once it breaks through, Chen Yuan’s meditation level will also increase.

Just as his thoughts were drifting, a phone call suddenly came in from an unknown caller.

"Mr. Chen, we've arrived." It was a very soft female voice.

"Okay, I'm in the training room now and will be here soon." Chen Yuan said.

After the issue of Kele's driver's license test caused heated discussions, several media wanted to interview him but were all rejected by Chen Yuan. However, Fengcheng Daily was an official media and had a close relationship with the Fengcheng Beast Tamer Association, so Chen Yuan had no choice but to agree.

"It's okay, we'll come straight to the training room to find you."

Hearing this, Chen Yuan turned around and looked at the two little guys: "Stop first and get ready. A reporter will be here for an interview soon."

"Chirp."

Sparks was not interested in these. It slowly fell to the ground, its eyes flickering, thinking about how to continue to improve its strength.

Coke is different. It is very much looking forward to the upcoming interview and its tail is wagging non-stop.

Ducks and ducks can see themselves on TV!

Chen Yuan rubbed Kele's head and said with a smile: "Be quiet and don't make too much noise."

after awhile,

Reporters and photographers from Fengcheng Daily came to the training room.

The reporter was a young lady, wearing a professional suit that showed off her figure, with long hair falling like a waterfall, and wearing a pair of glasses. She exuded an intellectual air.

"Hello Mr. Chen, I am the reporter responsible for interviewing you this time, Song Wei." Song Wei took the initiative to extend her right hand.

After a brief self-introduction, Song Wei turned her head to look at Kele, who was lying obediently beside Chen Yuan's thigh, and her eyes lit up: "Is this the Wind Hound that passed the driving test?"

"Ow!"

Without waiting for Chen Yuan to answer, Coke straightened his upper body and raised his head slightly. His soft light brown hair fluttered in the wind, his blue eyes revealed confidence and composure, and his tail hung to the ground.

Just one look at it and you can clearly feel that this is a majestic and unique Wind Hound.

The cameraman was snapping away, but Song Wei asked, "Mr. Chen, this wind hound should be very gentle, right?"

"It should be a mature and stable one, and it will hardly act naughty in daily life and won't cause you any trouble."

"Ow!"

Kele raised his eyes and glanced at Song Wei, giving her a look of approval.

This human has good vision. He can see his own advantages at a glance.

Hearing this, Chen Yuan's expression suddenly became strange. He looked at Kele deeply, nodded slightly, and said against his conscience: "Indeed, it is usually very well behaved."

"It seems that my guess was right." Song Wei smiled and explained her reasons. "Since it was able to pass the driving test, it must have a good personality. Otherwise, it would not have been able to practice driving over and over again, let alone pass the test with full marks."

"It may seem like just a driver's license test, but it reveals the character strengths of this Wind Hound. It is gentle and mature, steady and patient. This is why it can become the first pet in the country to obtain a driver's license."

Song Wei seemed to have been prepared for this and spoke a long speech fluently to the camera.

Afterwards, Song Wei asked several carefully selected questions, such as how Chen Yuan met Kele; why Kele had to take a driving test; interesting things that happened during driving practice, as well as the problems encountered, and how to solve them...

Chen Yuan's answer was half true and half false, but fortunately it satisfied Song Wei.

"Mr. Chen, I have one last question." Song Wei looked at the sparks beside Chen Yuan and suddenly asked, "Excuse me, is this also your pet?"

"Yes." Chen Yuan nodded.

"What a beautiful Flame Cloud Falcon." Song Wei looked closely at the Flame Cloud Falcon in front of her, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Although she is not a beastmaster, she has interviewed many beastmasters during this period, so she has some understanding of most pets.

This Flame Cloud Falcon was definitely the most beautiful and special one she had ever seen.

Thoughts flashed through her mind, and Song Wei continued to ask: "Mr. Chen, are you a contestant in the Dafeng Cup?"

Chen Yuan nodded.

"You still have a competition tomorrow. Will we disturb you?" Song Wei asked tentatively with a twinkle in her eyes.

"It's okay, it won't take too much time." Chen Yuan shook his head.

Hearing this, Song Wei smiled brightly: "Then you must be a very powerful beastmaster."

The appearance and temperament of these two pets are extraordinary. In addition, Mr. Chen has made it to the main competition starting tomorrow, which shows that he is definitely a powerful beastmaster.

Chen Yuan shook his head: "I'm just an ordinary beastmaster."

Song Wei did not respond to this, but smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, I wish you good luck in the next competition and a good result."

"By the way, your Flame Cloud Falcon is so beautiful, but you must not let it get hurt in the battle." Song Wei's gaze fell on the slender Flame Cloud Falcon, and deep admiration and love emerged in her eyes.

She naturally liked such elegant and beautiful pets. If they were injured in battle, it would be a blasphemy to beauty.

Chen Yuan glanced at the sparks with a strange look in his eyes.

Sparks injured?

He was actually looking forward to this scene, as it meant the appearance of a third-level pet that could confront Sparks head-on.

"Then we won't bother you anymore." After asking the last question, Song Wei left with the photographer.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, Fengcheng Daily published a report titled "A Microcosm of the Wave of the Times - When Pets Get a Driver's License", which attracted widespread attention.

This report first briefly describes the content of Lu Hao's live broadcast. His failure in the third test is in stark contrast to Coke who passed with full marks. It then leads to an interview with Chen Yuan.

The original intention of Fengcheng Daily was to trigger a series of thoughts among the public through the trivial matter of using pet animals to obtain a driver's license, such as whether the entry of pet animals into all walks of life will pose a threat to the survival of ordinary people, and what attitude should be taken towards this situation?

But as time passed, the leaders of Fengcheng Daily found that the public's attention was not here, but on Mr. Chen, who claimed to be an ordinary beastmaster.

“Consultant Chen redefines ordinary.”

"Wow, it turns out this Wind Hound is Consultant Chen's pet. I was wondering why it was so smart."

"The people of Baokun City are ecstatic. Consultant Chen is actually on the news!"

"Advisor Chen wants to participate in the Dafeng Cup and win the championship!"

Many of the comments below the report came from Baokun City. They paid great attention to the interviewee and introduced the ordinary beastmaster to netizens from other regions in the comment section.

The leader of Fengcheng Daily was not satisfied with the situation: "Didn't you get detailed information about the other party before the interview?"

Song Wei lowered her head, pursed her lips and said nothing.

After learning about the pet driver's license test, she hurriedly contacted Zhang, the driving school's supervisor, and rushed to the interview location, without having time to find out the other party's identity information.

After all, their focus was on the Wind Hound and the social thinking it could trigger, not on the Beast Tamer.

But soon, Song Wei's eyes lit up: "Leader, since he is going to participate in the competition and is very famous in Baokun City, why don't you let me follow up and report tomorrow?"

"A pet that has obtained a driver's license and appears in a competition will definitely attract widespread attention regardless of whether it wins or loses."
