Chapter 22
Trial Ends, News from the Secret Realm
"Su Yuan, what quality is your mutated Blastoise?"
"This level of combat power is nowhere near as strong as you previously claimed, just a little bit stronger than a regular Blastoise!"
Watching Su Yuan command Xiao Xuan to easily and effortlessly kill one ferocious beast after another that had put him under immense pressure.
Shi Qianying couldn't help but look at Su Yuan and ask him a question.
Recalling the scene when Su Yuan introduced the beast taming to her and Huangfu Yunzhao, Shi Qianying couldn't help but feel depressed.
How is Su Yuan's mutated Blastoise any slightly stronger than the original Blastoise?
Xiao Xuan's current performance is clearly a little bit stronger than expected!
Not only Shi Qianying, but even Huangfu Yunzhao was looking at Su Yuan with great interest.
His gaze lingered between Su Yuan and Xiao Xuan.
Now Huangfu Yunzhao understood that Su Yuan's tamed beast, Xiao Xuan, was much more powerful than her own tamed beast.
Despite having only the strength of an ordinary eighth-tier beast, it was able to unleash the combat power of an ordinary awakened third-tier ferocious beast.
Su Yuan's tamed beasts are definitely of higher quality than her Poisonous Vine Tree Demon, and even the Gale Shadow Cat that she and Huangfu Shiba had previously searched for was far inferior to Su Yuan's tamed beasts.
"To be able to unleash Awakened-level combat power at a normal Rank 8 level, his Beast Taming, even if not of perfect quality, is absolutely very close to perfect quality!"
"The first natal beast is so powerful, and it is a mutation of a rare quality Water Blastoise. Su Yuan's luck is absolutely unique."
"Of course, perhaps Su Yuan's possession of such a powerful beast is not simply a matter of luck; he may possess secrets unknown to others..."
Watching Su Yuan intently direct Xiao Xuan in battle, Huangfu Yunzhao's eyes gleamed with an unusual light, and a faint smile graced her face, making her beautiful and charming.
Huangfu Yunzhao herself was unaware that she had developed a strong interest in Su Yuan.
Everyone's gaze would be unconsciously drawn to Su Yuan.
……
The battle did not last long.
Led by Tang Zihan and the grade head's commander-level beast tamers, the group fought against the small beast tide that rushed out of the Misty Forest for about twenty minutes before receiving support from the Tianyang City Guard.
With the assistance of hundreds of awakened-level or higher city guard beast tamers, everyone wiped out all the ferocious beasts in the beast tide without suffering any injuries.
After a battle that lasted for more than half an hour, Su Yuan's gains were quite remarkable.
In just over thirty minutes, Xiao Xuan killed as many as 300 ordinary seventh-tier or higher ferocious beasts.
They collected over three hundred ordinary high-level ferocious beast cores.
Adding to the beast cores he had obtained by hunting ferocious beasts alone in the Misty Forest over the previous day and a half, Su Yuan now possessed more than five hundred beast cores of various sizes.
The combined value of these ferocious beast cores exceeds two million.
"With so many ferocious beast cores, we won't have to worry about food for our beast tamers for the next month."
"What a pity, this beast tide is only a small one, I haven't killed enough yet."
Su Yuan packed away all the ferocious beast cores that Xiao Xuan had collected, and looked around at the ferocious beasts that had been slaughtered without a trace, with some regret.
If given more time, Su Yuan would be able to collect even more ferocious beast cores.
"Su Yuan, aren't you going to take your tamed beasts back to rest?"
At this moment, Shi Qianying and Huangfu Yunzhao stepped forward and saw Su Yuan packing a large pile of ferocious beast cores into a bag without putting Xiao Xuan back into the beast-taming bracelet. They couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Xuan's performance in the previous battles had also broadened their horizons.
Despite being at the same ordinary level of strength, Xiao Xuan killed more than twice as many ferocious beasts as the two of them combined.
However, the more ferocious beasts are killed, the greater the energy consumed.
After the battle, their tamed beasts were almost completely exhausted, so they were put into their tamed beast bracelets to rest.
Seeing that Su Yuan had collected all the beast cores and had no intention of letting Xiao Xuan into the beast-taming bracelet, they finally asked.
Hearing their conversation, Su Yuan smiled, then took out several water-type ferocious beast cores from his pocket and tossed them to Xiao Xuan.
After watching Xiao Xuan happily swallow the several water-type ferocious beast crystal cores, he explained:
"Xiao Xuan himself doesn't want to stay in the Beast Taming Bracelet."
"Moreover, for beast tamers, after exhausting their own energy, it is easier to absorb the energy of the beast cores and beast food outside than inside the beast taming bracelet that isolates them from the outside world."
"It can also absorb elemental energy from heaven and earth, allowing it to level up more quickly."
"Is that really the case? Is this the reason why your beast-taming level has increased so quickly?"
Listening to Su Yuan's serious nonsense, both Shi Qianying and Huangfu Yunzhao showed a hint of suspicion on their beautiful faces.
They had never heard of this before.
Su Yuan, on the other hand, felt quite embarrassed being stared at like that by these two beautiful women.
This is of course not true. He did not put Xiao Xuan back into the Beast Taming Bracelet because his Beast Taming Bracelet had already been occupied by the Gale Shadow Cat and could no longer accommodate another Beast Tamer.
To take Xiao Xuan back, the only option is to obtain another empty Beast Taming Bracelet.
Of course, Su Yuan would not reveal the truth.
Otherwise, if he had contracted a second beast while still at the ordinary level, the sensation would have been far greater than the impact of Xiao Xuan's display of powerful combat strength.
"By the way, Miss Huangfu, if I'm not mistaken, the beast you summoned earlier should be the Poisonous Vine Tree Spirit, a plant-type beast, right?"
"This is a high-quality beast with an excellent seven-star rating, and it's also a rare plant-type beast."
"If you don't mind, could you tell me how you obtained the contract for your tamed beast?"
"Or rather, where can I find a plant-based beast like the Poisonous Vines Tree Spirit to form a contract with?"
Faced with the two women's persistent questioning, Su Yuan immediately changed the subject, not delving too deeply into the matter of Xiao Xuan receiving the Beast Taming Bracelet.
Su Yuan's change of topic did indeed work.
Upon hearing Su Yuan's question, Huangfu Yunzhao didn't bother to consider whether what Su Yuan said was true, and instead said to Su Yuan:
"My Poison Vine Tree Spirit was prepared for me by my family. After I finished testing my Beast Taming Talent, I went home and formed a contract with it."
"Although I don't know where my family got the Poison Vine Tree Spirit from, Su Yuan, if you want to contract a plant-type beast like the Poison Vine Tree Spirit for your second Beast Taming, I suggest you go to the Voodoo Forest."
"There are many poisonous plant-type alien beasts there. As long as you can subdue one of them, there is a very high probability of completing a plant-type alien beast contract."
"Plant-type beasts are generally afraid of fire. If you have a fire-type beast by your side, the difficulty of contracting a plant-type beast will be greatly reduced."
After listening to Huangfu Yunzhao's words, Su Yuan nodded slightly, and then asked:
"What is this Voodoo Jungle? I've never heard of it before."
"I know that. The Voodoo Forest is a special secret realm outside Tianyun City. Su Yuan, since you and I are both in Tianyang City, we naturally rarely hear about the Voodoo Forest."
"I only heard about this place when I visited Sister Yunzhao's house with my family!"
Before Huangfu Yunzhao could answer, Shi Qianying immediately spoke up.
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Yunzhao nodded slightly, affirming Shi Qianying's words.
"Skyfall City, Voodoo Forest, um, I understand, thank you for letting me know."
After listening to their words, Su Yuan pondered for a moment, nodded to them, and expressed his gratitude.
"Hehe, it's just a small matter, nothing to worry about."
Shi Qianying waved her hand and said with great enthusiasm.
Huangfu Yunzhao also smiled and looked at Su Yuan:
"Su Yuan, if you come to Tianyun City, you can let me know. Our Huangfu family is doing quite well in Tianyun City. Let me know when you arrive so I can show you some hospitality."
"Haha, definitely next time!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yuan responded with a smile, and the three of them chatted happily.
