Beastmaster

Just like that, the two of them just looked at the cave entrance quietly for a while and then left.

On the way back, neither of them was too anxious, but walked back while chatting.

Jing Cangming asked, "Teacher Zhong, I have a question for you."

Zhong Yelin turned his head and looked at Jing Cangming, "You ask."

Jing Cangming said, "Teacher Zhong, is our academy raising uncontracted war beasts?"

Zhong Yelin laughed when he heard this. He knew that Jing Cangming asked this because of the prizes of the competition.

Zhong Ye Lin said without hesitation, "Yes, but they were not caught from outside, but bred."

"Ah? Reproduction?" Jing Cangming said in disbelief.

"That's right. We bred them with our own war beasts, just like the dragon we promised to give to Zhan Yongyi."

"Teacher, how many of these breeding war beasts do we have in our academy now?"

"Maybe hundreds of them. After all, reproduction is not that easy. Just like dragons, they can only reproduce once every 20 years and lay one egg each time," said Zhong Yelin.

"What about yours?" Jing Cangming didn't continue.

Zhong Yelin smiled and said, "Yes, my dragon was also obtained from the academy. It was bred, and so were theirs."

They both knew without asking that they were talking about Xi Yuluo and Han Liuyun.

Jing Cangming fell into deep thought, "Teacher, are there any requirements for obtaining a war beast from the academy?"

Jing Cangming asked suddenly, and Zhong Yelin was not surprised.

"Yes. For example, in this training, the student with the highest total score will have the opportunity to enter the Beast Tower and can choose a war beast to make a contract with."

Jing Cangming nodded and thought to himself, "So that's it."

The two of them traveled all night, and the sun was slowly rising. The light in the forest slowly changed with the movement of the sun.

As soon as they came back, they saw Zhan Yongyi, Yan Yuxiao and Tu Li had packed up everything and were waiting for them.

Seeing the two coming back, Yan Yuxiao hurriedly ran towards Jing Cangming and said coquettishly, "Where have you been? Why didn't you tell me?" As she spoke, she punched Jing Cangming on the chest.

Indeed, this is not some other place, this is a forbidden area. With Jing Cangming's strength, his life is still in danger here at any time.

After the three people woke up, they found that not only Jing Cangming was missing, but Zhong Yelin was also missing, so they speculated that the two had left together, so they did not rashly go looking for them.

Jing Cangming smiled awkwardly, then looked at Zhong Yelin in a pleading manner, hoping that Zhong Yelin could give an answer.

Zhong Yelin glanced at him and did not help him, so Jing Cangming had to say, "Teacher Zhong came to see me last night and we went to see the red-eyed leopard, so we didn't wake you up."

Zhan Yongyi and Tu Li also came over, "Red-eyed leopard? The one that stole the fish yesterday?"

Jing Cangming looked at them and nodded, "Teacher Zhong took me to the cave of the red-eyed leopard, and I also saw its child."

"Child?" Yan Yuxiao asked with her big watery eyes.

"Yes, the red-eyed leopard must be injured and unable to hunt, but it has children who need milk, so it has no choice but to steal fish."

After hearing Jing Cangming's answer, everyone had some understanding, but Tu Li still insisted, "If you want to eat fish, can't you just catch it yourself?"

Jing Cangming punched him and said, "Come on, just consider it as a good deed."

Tu Li felt a little resentful in his heart, but still said nothing.

Zhong Ye Lin said, "Let's go."

The children then shut up and followed Zhong Yelin towards the core area.

This time, the crowd did not choose to stop and go, but moved forward without stopping.

During this period, some reckless war beasts launched sneak attacks, but they were all blocked by Zhong Yelin one by one.

On the way, Tu Li couldn't help but ask curiously, "Teacher Zhong, what is the purpose of our training this time?"

Zhong Ye Lin stopped and said, "Take out the points tokens on you."

Upon hearing this, several people took out bronze tokens from their worldly rings.

Everyone was surprised to find that the zeros originally displayed on the token were actually increasing.

There was one hundred written on Jing Cangming's token, eighty on Yan Yuxiao's, and seventy-five on Zhan Yongyi and Tu Li's.

Everyone was a little confused. They were all doing the same thing, so why were the points different?

Zhong Ye Lin seemed to see through the confusion of several people and said, "The point tokens will be scored based on the way you handle each matter and your approach in this training. It can be said that your every move will be scored."

Tu Li said, "That's not right. I can understand that Jing Cangming's is taller than ours, because he went out with you last night. But why is Yan Yuxiao's taller than ours?"

In fact, Zhan Yongyi also had doubts about this, but he didn't take it seriously.

Zhong Yelin said, "Because of compassion."

Tu Li was silent now. Thinking about it carefully, although Yan Yuxiao had not taken any action during this journey, her empathy for the war beasts was unmatched by any of them.

Zhong Yelin continued, "You are all my students, or even my disciples. I hope that in the future, no matter what the circumstances, you will do one thing: do not kill war beasts that you have no grudges against, and do not kill those that do not threaten your life. Do you understand?"

Several people answered in unison, "Got it!"

Then Zhong Yelin nodded with satisfaction, and several people took back the tokens and followed behind.

The further in we went, the sparser the trees became. Zhong Yelin said, "Everyone, summon out the smaller war beasts."

Upon hearing this, everyone released their war beasts. Jing Cangming naturally summoned the Lingteng Dog, Yan Yuxiao summoned the Purple Dragon Python, Zhan Yongyi summoned the Ice Crystal Deer, but Tu Li was still hesitant to summon one.

Zhong Yelin couldn't help but ask, "Tu Li, why don't you summon a war beast?"

Tu Li said somewhat embarrassedly, "Um, Teacher Zhong, I don't have a war beast."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Jing Cangming asked, "No way, you are level 34, and you don't have a contracted beast?"

Tu Li touched his head and said awkwardly, "The dean took me to the Beast Tower before, but none of the war beasts that matched my attributes were willing to sign a contract with me."

Zhong Yelin seemed to be thinking about something and didn't say anything. Yan Yuxiao asked, "Why is that?"

Tu Li said, "I didn't know it at first. Later, the dean examined my body and found out that it might be a problem with my personal bloodline, which caused me to only be able to contract with the war beast with bloodthirsty attributes in my body."

Everyone was speechless after hearing this. How could there be such a saying?

Zhong Yelin said at this time, "Tu Li, perhaps, I know your life experience."

Tu Li was excited when he heard this, "Teacher Zhong? Really? Who are my parents? Please tell me quickly?"

Tu Li rushed over and grabbed Zhong Yelin's arm and shook it back and forth.

Zhong Ye Lin touched Tu Li's head and said, "I can't tell you now, but you just need to know that your family is in the central city, and it's not that they don't want you, but the newborns in your family have to go through self-growth."

Tu Li roared, "What self-growth! They clearly don't want me!"

There were tears in Tu Li's eyes, but she was still furious and slapped Zhong Yelin's hand away.

Zhong Ye Lin said, "It's true, kid. I know someone from your family. She was also left outside since she was a child and grew up on her own. When she grows up to a certain age, someone from your family will come to pick you up."

Tu Li suddenly burst into laughter, but his smile could not hide the tears that were flowing from his eyes.

Jing Cangming and Zhan Yongyi quickly turned over and landed on the ground, walked to his side and comforted him.

Jing Cangming said, "Tu Li, no matter what secrets your family has, no matter whether you admit it or not, for now, aren't we your family?"

Zhan Yongyi also said, "Yes, we are your family."

Yan Yuxiao sat on the head of the purple dragon python and said with a smile, "They are right, we are your family."

Tu Li was stunned for a moment, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and said, "Thank you."

"Come on, come with me," Jing Cangming said.

Then Tu Li smiled and nodded, and followed Jing Cangming to ride on the Lingteng dog.

Zhong Yelin also nodded with a smile, and then summoned a big crab.

The crab is sea blue all over and is emitting flowing light.

Zhong Yelin turned over, rode on the crab and said, "Let's go."

No one moved. They just watched the three-meter-tall crab move forward sideways.

Zhong Yelin shouted from the front, "Hurry up and catch up!"

Everyone finally came back to their senses from their shock and followed.

On the way, Tu Li said, "Cang Ming, this... is a big crab?"

Jing Cangming was also a little shocked. After all, none of these children had ever seen any marine creatures.

This crab looks majestic and handsome in every way, but... it walks sideways, which is indeed not very domineering.

However, its eight claws were indeed very sharp, and some thorns blocking the road were cut off by it.

The further we went in, the more withered the trees became. For some reason, it was completely silent inside.

It was almost evening, the setting sun in the sky was a monotonous iron red, the dark mountains were dormant like rock wool to the horizon, and the slender dead branches were like ghost hands, reaching towards the sky.

Such a scene made the children feel a little scared.

Zhong Yelin stopped and said, "The core area is behind the dead forest in front."

Tu Li said timidly, "Teacher Zhong, we won't go in tonight, right?"

Zhong Yelin said, "Of course not. I'm scared late at night."

Zhong Yelin's words caused a burst of contempt from several people, but Zhong Yelin was not joking.

At night, the frequency of appearance of ferocious beasts is quite high.

Jing Cangming said, "Teacher Zhong, I remember that Elder Ling said that the Black Forest is mostly filled with ferocious beasts over level 50?"

Zhong Yelin said, "That's just almost. If I remember correctly, there should be several ferocious beasts over level 80 in the Black Forest."

Everyone gasped in silence, "Over eighty levels?"

"Oh my god, this is the best existence among human beings."

Zhong Yelin said, "War beasts are different from humans. War beasts at level 80 or so are similar to humans, but ferocious beasts are different. Ferocious beasts at level 80 or so are equivalent to humans at level 90."

Everyone was shocked. "Teacher, you always talk about ferocious beasts. What is the difference between ferocious beasts and war beasts?"

Zhong Yelin said, "War beasts are the ones we see everyday. They are easy to get close to and tame, but ferocious beasts are those that have been passed down from ancient times."

Jing Cangming asked in surprise, "Ancient times?"

"Yes, in ancient times, the bloodthirsty war beasts would become ferocious beasts. The combat effectiveness of ferocious beasts was much higher than that of war beasts. So from then on, there was a third team between humans and war beasts, the ferocious beasts."

Tu Li asked, "Teacher, can the ferocious beast be tamed?"

Zhong Ye Lin said, "No one would normally try to tame a ferocious beast, because if you make a contract with a ferocious beast, you might get attacked back. Many people who have tried to make a contract with a ferocious beast were eaten by it. However, there are some special ones."

Zhong Yelin looked at Tu Li at this time.

Tu Li was a little excited because the attributes of this ferocious beast were very suitable for his contract.

Zhong Yelin said, "Later, some families developed some secrets to tame ferocious beasts, and then specialized in controlling ferocious beasts, such as Tu Li's family."

When Tu Li smiled, he guessed that it must have something to do with him.

"Teacher Zhong, do you think I can control it now?" Tu Li asked.

Zhong Ye Lin shook his head and said, "Your family needs a special skill to control the ferocious beasts. This skill is called the art of controlling ferocious beasts. Without this skill, you cannot control the ferocious beasts. Blind control will backfire."

Tu Li was obviously disappointed when he heard this.

The other few people were also somewhat curious about Tu Li and his family.

This was the first time they had heard of either a ferocious beast or controlling a ferocious beast.

Tu Li patted Jing Cangming on the shoulder, then turned around and jumped off the Lingteng Dog.

"Teacher, I'm just taking a walk around here," said Tu Li.

Then he turned and walked away.

Jing Cangming quickly asked, "Teacher Zhong, can he do it alone?"

Yan Yuxiao also said, "Yes, teacher, this is too dangerous?"

Zhong Yelin said, "Don't worry."

As he said this, he did something that surprised everyone.

Zhong Yelin flipped his hand and summoned another war beast from the world ring.

This war beast looks like the size of a hummingbird, its body is silvery-white and appears somewhat transparent.

Zhong Yelin said something to the war beast, and then it quickly followed in the direction of Tu Li.

Yan Yuxiao couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Zhong!? How did you manage to release two contracted beasts at the same time?"

Zhong Ye Lin smiled and said, "Who said this is a contract?"

At this moment, Jing Cangming suddenly realized, "Is this the attached beast in your world ring?"

Zhong Yelin nodded, and Zhan Yongyi and Yan Yuxiao also understood.

But then Zhong Yelin did something that surprised everyone.

That’s right, this time he really summoned another contracted war beast.

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Zhong Ye Lin said, "My current strength allows me to summon three contracted war beasts at the same time. You are not strong enough now. When you reach level 40, I will teach you personally."

After saying that, he put both war beasts back into the ring.
