After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tame - Chapter 128:
Chapter 128: Chapter 115 University Cup Warm-up_2
I really had gotten ahead of myself. Not long ago, the medical fees of a hundred million weighed on my family like a mountain.
Chen Xing opened another box, took out the steak, and marinated it again for barbecuing.
Sìxiàng also seemed tempted by the aroma.
Chen Xing said, “Let’s feed it first, and when I have some money later, I’ll make some for you too. But don’t worry, you’ll get yours eventually.”
Sìxiàng nodded understandingly.
After cooking, Chen Xing also distributed the intermediate meat food for pets that he had brought along to them.
But Chen Xing noticed that Taotie’s appetite seemed to have grown, and he was still hungry even after consuming yesterday’s portion.
He looked at Sìxiàng’s food.
Sìxiàng cautiously hugged its food and flew away, having noticed this greedy creature harboring ill intentions nearby, hmph!
It had indeed been eyeing its meal!
“I’ll add more to your meal when we get back,” Chen Xing called Taotie back.
After eating, Chen Xing cleaned up the ground to prevent any rekindling of embers and even had Taotie create a Great Vortex that summoned plenty of water to thoroughly soak the ashes on the ground.
Then he called the driver to come back.
That evening, back at home, Chen Xing took out food from the refrigerator, then headed to a secluded corner of the park to let Taotie eat its fill.
The next day, the speed of Taotie’s energy level increase remained steady, but its body length had surged by half a meter, nearing thirty meters.
And this was just the beginning; Chen Xing was already looking forward to the college cup in twenty days.
As its size limit increased, not only did Taotie’s appetite grow, its body size growth rate also increased.
However, along with that came a rapid rise in spending money, much like running water.
Taotie now fed on intermediate pet food made from high-energy-level monster meat.
If it were made from low-energy-level monster meat, Chen Xing would have nothing else to do every day but cook.
Now, Chen Xing was already feeling that there wasn’t enough time in the day, spending every moment making various nutritional foods and training beasts; all his time was devoted to these activities.
Even the time spent with his family had become even scarcer.
Liu Yuzhen and the others saw how busy Chen Xing was every day and felt heartache but were powerless to do anything but try not to disturb him.
It wasn’t just Chen Xing, Chen Lingya was also getting busier by the day.
Chen Xing was preparing for the college cup, and so was she.
Especially as the reigning champions of last year’s Shu State cup, not just their school but even the regional and city level education authorities placed great importance on them.
If Jincheng could field a team that performed spectacularly at the college cup, it would be a significant achievement for them.
In these twenty days, Chen Xing’s two beasts had been making steady progress, and it had been one and a half months since they returned from Cangwu.
Both beasts had made considerable progress.
The TV was currently airing a pre-event program for the college cup, where several hosts were lightheartedly discussing this year’s event and the strong teams from previous years.
Chen Xing and his teammates gathered in the Azure Dragon No. 8 High School’s team classroom.
The college cup was a program broadcast nationally, attracting hundreds of millions of viewers each year.
Although most viewers focused on the university group,
the high school group was no less exciting,
attracting tens of millions of viewers each year which was still a considerable number.
Especially during the semifinals and finals of the high school group, the number of viewers would dramatically increase.
Since the finals times for the high school and university groups did not overlap, there was no conflict for viewers’ time.
In the TV show, besides the two hosts who were responsible for setting the mood, the remaining three were popular super-rank beast tamers that had been invited.
The atmosphere in the classroom was a bit tense, occasionally punctuated by the sound of text message notifications.
Not just on the TV, but on all major news platforms and social media, the high school cup had been dominating the trends these past few days.
Sitting in the back row, Chen Xing leaned back in his chair with his hands behind his head, seemingly casually watching the show, but his attention was actually on his stone booklet.
Seeing the continuous improvement in the values and capabilities of his two beasts, a strong sense of accomplishment surged within Chen Xing.

Taotie’s energy level had still not broken through fifty before the competition, but that wasn’t a big problem since the competition didn’t end in one day.
By the time of the finals, Taotie’s energy level would definitely have exceeded fifty.
However, what was more important was Taotie’s current size.
It was absolutely a hundred-ton class monster.
Its enormous size might disperse its strength, making it difficult to hit “ants.”
But skills didn’t have that issue.
Especially universal skills, which could perfectly inherit the user’s strength, concentrating all power to strike the opponent precisely at one point.
Compared to when it first evolved, Taotie now had two more universal skills.
One is Giant Tail Sweep; the other, Heavy Stomp.
For large and strong Beast Tamers, these two skills greatly benefit from the physical strength of the caster.

Sìxiàng had also made significant progress in strength.
It had awakened an advanced skill, Brahma Thunder Invocation, an advanced Thunder Element skill innate to its species with powerful lethality.
In practice, it was not only impressive but also dense with thunder, capable of targeting individuals or affecting an area.
To better deploy this advanced skill’s power, stacking layers with the Thunder Bathing passive.
Chen Xing even specially refined a skill for it, replacing a later-awakened Dark Attribute Skill with Thunder Flash, which had a higher release frequency.
Thunder Flash is a short-range displacement skill of the Thunder Element, somewhat similar to Shadow Chase.
When activated, the area around Sìxiàng fills with lightning, then it moves to the target location at an extremely fast speed.
Because of the lightning’s extreme speed, this skill was named Thunder Flash.
Although Thunder Flash has a relatively short range, its advantage lies in its ability to be unleashed more frequently.
This not only allows for quicker stacking of the Thunder Bathing passive effects, but it also enhances Sìxiàng’s rapid maneuverability at short distances.
The classroom door was pushed open.
Kuang Shiyi walked in, “Did you pack everything? Get ready, we’ll take the car to the airport directly.”
“I packed everything a long time ago!”
Tong Xuhua leapt up from his chair.
His face burning with irrepressible excitement, “Old Kuang, can we be seen on TV during tomorrow’s opening ceremony? It would be great if they gave me a close-up, fucking hell, to show my face to hundreds of millions of people!”
“Enough, whether your faces get shown is up to the production team, but as long as you compete well and advance, there will be plenty of opportunities to be seen!”
