Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 99 When did such a pervert appear in the association!
After getting up and having lunch, Zhou Xu suggested holding a celebration party, but Chen Yuan declined.

He had no interest in similar parties. He only knew Zhou Xu. Although he had dinner with President Wang and added his contact information, there were objective age and other barriers between them, making it impossible for him to communicate as naturally as he could with Zhou Xu.

Besides, there will definitely be some association members that Chen Yuan doesn’t know at all at the party. Chen Yuan has always stayed away from this kind of socializing. It would be better to go back to the farm and cook a big meal and enjoy it with the little ones.

But President Wang still sent a message to express his congratulations, and asked the staff to compile today's official media announcement overnight:

[Warmly celebrate the birth of our city’s first mid-level beastmaster]

Chen Yuan clicked on it and took a look. Just like the notice released by the Donghuang Beastmaster Association headquarters, his personal information was not disclosed in it.

After asking the question in his mind, Zhou Xu simply explained: "This is a protection measure for excellent beastmasters like you. The current social situation is not completely calm."

“Sometimes being too popular is not a good thing.”

Chen Yuan nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "What about people like Li Tianyun and Zhuang Jianbai?"

"They belong to the other extreme." Zhou Xu carefully considered his words and explained slowly, "They are all young people with outstanding looks. They are also the first batch of students, so they are very suitable to set an example."

"And their extremely high popularity makes them equally safe, and any actions against them will be untraceable."

After asking the question in his mind, Chen Yuan clicked into the comment section of the announcement:
"Baokun City has really made progress. It has a mid-level beastmaster so quickly."

"I don't believe it. It's impossible for a mid-level beastmaster to appear in Baokun City so soon. Unless you let him teach me one-on-one, I will personally test his level."

"I suggest that this beastmaster come to various schools in the city to share his thoughts and experiences. The path of a beastmaster is too difficult."

"No, I just succeeded in meditation and there is a mid-level beastmaster?"

"I'm lonely when I'm alone, and I need someone to keep me company late at night."

Chen Yuan expressionlessly closed the messy comment section and began searching online for the driving school with the best reputation.

This time I came to Baokun City, in addition to being certified as an intermediate beastmaster, there was another important matter.

Until he saw a lucky driving school, he clicked on the location and murmured, "It's you."

After half an hour,

"Excuse me, sir, could you please repeat your question?" the receptionist asked, bending over.

Chen Yuan pointed at Coke, who was standing upright with his paws on the front desk, and asked again, "I want to ask if this guy can apply for a driver's license at your driving school?"

The receptionist turned her head stiffly, staring blankly at Coke, who was sticking out his tongue and looking like a dog. She fell into a long thought, and her expression became more and more confused.

After a while,
She said with a sad face: "Sir, please stop teasing me. How can a dog take a driver's license test?"

"Ouch!"

Hearing that he was being discriminated against, Coke immediately became unhappy. He shouted at the receptionist, but was worried about scaring this crying and ignorant human, so his voice became smaller and smaller.

"It's not an ordinary dog." Chen Yuan pointed at Kele and said hesitantly, "It's a Wind Hound, an extraordinary creature."

The receptionist took a deep breath and said, "Sir, no matter what kind of dog it is, no matter whether it is a supernatural creature or not, our driving school will not allow non-human creatures to apply for a driver's license for the time being."

Hearing this, Keke's wagging tail turned into a wilted dogtail grass. It drooped its head in dismay and whimpered in grievance: "Bing."

Chen Yuan pursed his lips. He was not an unreasonable person. Of course he understood that the driving school had to follow the rules and regulations.

He came here this time originally to make Kele give up the idea of applying for a driver's license, but when he saw Kele's appearance, he felt a little distressed.

"What's going on?" Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a slightly bulging belly walked over quickly.

The receptionist immediately repeated the two people's questions, and then whispered: "Manager Zhang, I don't know how to deal with this either."

Manager Zhang waved his hand and said, "Go ahead and do your work. I'll take care of it."

Immediately,

Manager Zhang turned his head to look at Chen Yuan and stretched out his right hand: "You should be a beastmaster, right? Come this way."

Chen Yuan followed Manager Zhang into an office. They sat down and the latter immediately asked, "Is what you said true or false?"

“Does it really need a driver’s license?”

Facing Coke's hopeful gaze, Chen Yuan nodded hesitantly: "Yes, it is very interested in driving."

Manager Zhang nodded slightly, with a more obvious smile on his face: "I understand that the IQ of extraordinary creatures is not lower than that of some humans, and they are even smarter than us in some aspects."

After a brief pause, he said slowly, "But the matter of extraordinary creatures getting a driver's license will require some time."

"Um?"

Seeing that things were taking a turn for the better, Chen Yuan looked puzzled.

"You are an honorable beastmaster. You should know better than me that after the revival of spiritual energy, all aspects of society have undergone extremely profound changes." When Manager Zhang smiled, his eyes narrowed into slits, and his chubby face made people feel good about him.

Chen Yuan nodded slightly.

Manager Zhang went on to say: “This change has also affected us.”

"It is said that the higher-ups are already researching the construction of a dedicated passage for mounts and pets. By then, beastmasters who own mounts and pets will become very popular."

"An amusement park in our city launched a new service two days ago. For just 500 yuan, you can ride a pet for ten minutes. Business is booming."

Chen Yuan did not comment.

Currently, there are very few beastmasters who own mounts and pets. After all, in order to become a mount, large size is one requirement, a gentle temperament is two, and sufficient endurance is three.

"Haozi's gray-armored wild boar can be used as a mount or pet. It's not shameful to be a pig knight." Chen Yuan thought secretly.

"If you want to let your pet mount go on the road, you also need to obtain the corresponding certificate." Manager Zhang noticed the change in Chen Yuan's expression and continued, "At the same time, some people have proposed allowing pets with special abilities to obtain driver's licenses and replace some drivers."

"For example, spiritual pets can use their spiritual power to control vehicles more precisely, with higher efficiency and safety factors."

"Or the four-armed leaf monkeys, whose IQs are no less than humans. Their four arms can control the steering wheel and other buttons at the same time. As long as they learn basic traffic knowledge, their driving skills will not be inferior to those of experienced drivers."

Chen Yuan had heard a little about the four-armed leaf monkey that Manager Zhang mentioned. It is a wood-type pet with four flexible arms and a very high IQ.

"Isn't it too extravagant to let a pet act as a driver?" Chen Yuan couldn't help but ask.

Manager Zhang said with a smile: "This is just a gimmick. The technology of driverless cars is relatively mature now, and pets will definitely not be used as drivers."

"But the higher-ups will definitely relax the relevant regulations and allow pets to be eligible to obtain a driver's license, so that they can also use pets in various aspects and fields, further liberating productivity."

At this point, Manager Zhang stared at Chen Yuan and asked, "If I receive any relevant information, I will notify you immediately."

"You can bring your pet to get your driver's license for free, but I have one request."

Chen Yuan knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch, so he remained calm and asked, "What's your request?" "When it goes to take the driver's license test, can it help us advertise?"

Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

"Compared to ordinary people getting a driver's license, pet driving tests obviously have more traffic." Manager Zhang smiled unchanged.

Chen Yuan glanced at the silly Kele beside him, thought for a moment, and nodded in agreement: "Okay."

After a pause, he added: "But I hope it doesn't take up too much time."

After a conversation, Chen Yuan walked out of Xiangrui Driving School, put Manager Zhang's business card into his backpack, and took a bus to the bus station.

The sky was even gloomier than in the morning. Dark clouds were squeezed under the sky, and cold wind blew from time to time. Although it was midsummer, it gave people a feeling of desolation and coldness.

Looking at the abnormal weather, Chen Yuan frowned, hoping to return to the farm as soon as possible.

Baokun City Beast Tamer Association Building,

A burly and tall man walked slowly into the gate. He had thick eyebrows and a square face. Although he was wearing a black suit, it could not hide his obvious bulging muscles. From a distance, he looked like an iron tower.

As soon as he saw this person step into the hall, the security guard at the door immediately shouted, "Good afternoon, Consultant Shi."

Shi Gang grinned and patted him lightly on the shoulder. The latter suddenly felt his body sink, as if he would be crushed in the next moment.

"Advisor Shi's strength has increased a lot." When Shi Gang let go, the security guard rubbed his shoulders and spoke.

Hearing this, Shi Gang coughed lightly, and then said in a very loud voice: "Wow, you found out all this."

"Alas, there is nothing I can do. When I woke up this morning, I found that I had broken through to the intermediate level of beastmaster, and my strength has also increased a lot."

As soon as these words came out, the security guard's eyes lit up immediately and he shouted excitedly, "Advisor Shi has become a mid-level beastmaster?"

At this moment, a stone caused a thousand ripples. The beastmasters passing by immediately turned their eyes to Shi Gang, who was holding his head high and chest puffed out, and discussions arose one after another.

"Is this the consultant Shi from the association? He has become a mid-level beastmaster so quickly?"

"How about someone who can become a consultant?"

"That's amazing! I just became a beastmaster."

Every time he heard words of praise, Shi Gang would smile and nod gently, his inner joy ready to burst out.

Shi Gang walked towards the front desk with a strong figure, and a smile was always on his face: "I am here to apply for certification as a mid-level beastmaster."

He looked at the staff at the front desk and said with a smile, "By the way, please contact President Wang for me and ask him what special rewards there are for becoming the first mid-level beastmaster in Baokun City?"

The staff member raised his head with a complicated expression: "Sorry, Consultant Shi, you are not the first one."

"Hmm?" Shi Gang hummed subconsciously, then immediately responded, widening his eyes like copper bells, "What do you mean by that?"

The staff member looked at Shi Gang cautiously, speaking in a low voice, and said, "There is a beastmaster who has become a mid-level beastmaster before you."

Hearing this, Shi Gang frowned slightly: "I don't believe it."

He had been in the Beastmaster Association for half a month and was very familiar with all the Beastmasters in the association. No one's meditation progress was faster than his.

"This is the notice issued by the association this morning." The staff member took out the notice from the official media.

Shi Gang looked at the small words in the notice, and his originally excited mood instantly became exactly the same as the gloomy weather outside. He silently clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Do you have any information about this beastmaster?"

"It's confidential."

"I'll ask myself."

As soon as Shi Gang left the front desk, the shadow that had been hanging over the front desk staff instantly dissipated, causing the latter to breathe a sigh of relief.

Arriving at the president's office, Shi Gang knocked on the door, and a voice soon came from inside: "Come in."

Shi Gang pushed the door open and shouted, "President, I heard that someone has become a mid-level beastmaster before me. Who is this person?"

"I'm a consultant just like you." Wang Jianping took a sip of tea and said slowly.

Shi Gang clenched his right fist, his eyes piercing: "President, I don't accept it. I want to have a pet battle with him."

Wang Jianping asked: "Why don't you accept it?"

Shi Gang said: "It's not a big deal to have a fast progress in meditation. For a beastmaster, the strength of the pet is the most important."

"I'm applying to have a pet battle with him."

When Wang Jianping heard this, he smiled faintly: "Advisor Shi, do you still remember Captain Su?"

"Of course I remember." Shi Gang nodded. "Captain Su's Silver-Armored Mantis is very strong. I went on a mission with him this time and saw him easily suppress the rebellious second-level pet. I admire him very much."

Wang Jianping nodded slowly, then looked up at Shi Gang with an intriguing expression: "The other consultant's intermediate beastmaster assessment is against Captain Su."

"Guess what the result is?"

"Were you beaten down by Captain Su?" Shi Gang asked.

Wang Jianping smiled slightly: "Two minutes into the fight, Team Su's Silver-Armored Mantis was lying on the ground and couldn't get up."

Shi Gang fell into a long silence, his expression changing rapidly, and finally he stood up and nodded towards Wang Jianping, his voice hoarse: "President, I'm sorry to bother you."

After saying that, Shi Gang quietly left the office and headed for the fitness area.

After half an hour,

Shi Gang was sweating profusely as he bathed himself, his mind still echoing with Wang Jianping's words, "Two minutes into the fight, Captain Su's Silver-Armored Mantis was lying on the ground, unable to get up." He punched the wall hard and cursed, "Damn, when did this kind of pervert appear in the Association?"

But when he got dressed and left the fitness area, he had to face a cruel reality - in order to be certified as a mid-level beastmaster, he had to fight that man to verify his own strength.

Shi Gang returned to Wang Jianping's office, his momentum and voice were much lower than before: "President, I want to conduct the certification, you let the consultant fight with me."

After a pause, he took a deep breath and straightened his back: "No matter what, he is a member of our association. The stronger he is, the better it is for us."

"I'm glad you realize this." Wang Jianping smiled and nodded, but then spread his hands. "But it's a pity that you can't fight him now."

"why?"

"Because he returned to Qinling Mountains and continued to work as a forest ranger."

"Ah?" Shi Gang was dumbfounded.
