After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tame - Chapter 98
Chapter 98: Chapter 91: Pointing at the Collegiate Cup_2
The quality is very good, with good extensibility, and it also has decent resistance to fire, lightning, and water pressure.
Having received the new gift from Chen Xing, Sìxiàng kept its head down, holding and playing with it fondly.
“Mine?” Sìxiàng muttered.
“Yes, it’s yours now.”
Sìxiàng fell silent. In the lab, all it had were those endless pills and injections that it never seemed to run out of, but it didn’t like them.
It carefully clipped the black gourd-shaped food storage flask to its waist, adding a black gourd to its right side. This, it liked.
When passing by the glass doors of the mall, it couldn’t help but stop and size itself up.
“Hey, let’s go.” Chen Xing called from ahead.
Only then did Sìxiàng turn around and hurriedly catch up, but this time its steps were a bit more determined than before.
Afterward, Chen Xing took it to the supermarket to buy a large amount of chicken breast and three dehydrators, planning to prepare more freeze-dried food.
Freeze-drying wasn’t expensive, especially when compared to other skills in the Skill Tree, it just took some time to make.
The good thing about freeze-drying was that the most time-consuming part was the drying process, which simply required manually operating the machine to set the time by pressing a few buttons.
Handing over the several large bags of items to Sìxiàng, Chen Xing termed it ‘training.’
Sìxiàng didn’t refuse; the bags looked full but were actually light and easy for it to carry.
The only hassle was that it was too “short,” with long arms that dragged the bags on the ground when hanging naturally.
So it needed to lift its arms to raise the bags as high as possible. Its sharp talons formed a ring, creating a perfect hook shape.
Chen Xing noticed that Sìxiàng seemed much more agreeable after having the freeze-dried food, not as wild and unruly as when they first met.
Hmm…
Actually, he preferred it when it was wild and unruly.
Men.
Chen Xing had already informed his family ahead of time.
Upon arriving home, Dad Chen and Mom Chen warmly welcomed Sìxiàng.
After the initial nervousness, Sìxiàng quickly got used to the family.
At night, Chen Xing summoned Taotie in his room.
Taotie, feeling the presence of an unwelcome guest in the room, growled discontentedly at Chen Xing twice.
Seeing this, Sìxiàng took two steps back and stood against the wall in the corner of the room.
Chen Xing gently patted Taotie’s large head, “It’s also our partner, just hasn’t signed a contract with me yet. You better work hard and try to break through to Beast Taming Level thirty-eight soon.”
Taotie’s small eyes were full of confusion, not knowing what Beast Taming Level thirty-eight meant, only that its master had a new partner.
Sìxiàng understood it was the newcomer, so it didn’t argue or fuss, just quietly stood in the corner.
Chen Xing felt it was a tricky situation, feeling like a scumbag caught red-handed, with the official partner and the mistress under the same roof.
No wonder there was a course in high school called Beast Taming Psychology, probably to ensure every Beast Tamer could lovingly handle every pair of wings?
“You keep it company; I’m fine,” Sìxiàng said hoarsely.
Chen Xing: ???
What’s with the unexpected cryptic talk all of a sudden?
He looked at Sìxiàng and noticed that… well, he couldn’t tell anything from one of its eagle heads.
But considering it had been confined in a lab since it was young and hadn’t been exposed to much, he assumed the comment didn’t have any other implications.
He soothed the two Beast Tamings for a while.
At night, Chen Xing fell asleep with his head on Taotie’s belly.
Taotie’s one eye was open, and the other closed.
Sìxiàng silently walked over to the desk and picked up a book at random—”Beast Taming Psychology.”
It flipped through the book for a good while; the pictures were quite interesting, but unfortunately, it couldn’t understand the text.
Watching the eyeball of Taotie that moved with its own movements, Sìxiàng walked to the corner, jumped onto a stool, and slowly closed its eyes.
The two eagle claws on the lower body reflexively curled, seizing the support beneath them, and the body swayed slightly before it steadied itself.
The next day, Chen Xing got up early and decided to take Sìxiàng to the school with him.
Keeping it by his side would stabilize its mood and also make it easier to take care of.
There wasn’t much freeze-dried food left at home, but it was enough to maintain emotional stability for the time being. Once a new batch was ready, they would have more than enough.
The previous day he had been busy for nearly an hour, processing hundreds of pounds of chicken breasts. With a dehydration rate of about 70%, he expected to get around fourteen pounds of freeze-dried food, enough to last about five days.
Arriving at school, the appearance of Sìxiàng attracted many curious stares again.
Passing through the cafeteria to the school team’s area, Kuang Shiyi sized up Sìxiàng, “So this is the new Beast Taming you’ve been preparing?”
“Yes, my new partner.”
“Looks good.”
“By the way, coach, is the College Cup in March next year?” Chen Xing suddenly asked.
“Yes, why, you want to participate?”
“There’s still over three months to go, I want to give it a try.”
Kuang Shiyi’s experience instinctively told him that so much progress was impossible over such a short period.
But then he thought of Chen Xing’s Beast Taming’s stunning performance in the previous competition and swallowed the words at the tip of his tongue. This kid seemed to exist to shatter his experience.
As it stood, Chen Xing’s Beast Taming was only inferior to Tian Xuechuan in Energy Level, but if there could be significant improvement in the next three months…
Whether in functionality or combat power, by that time, Tian Xuechuan’s Beast Taming might not perform better on the field than Chen Xing’s.
After only a slight hesitation, Kuang Shiyi agreed to Chen Xing’s request.
“Alright, if your Beast Taming can break through to above 30 Energy Level in three months, I’ll let you and Tian Xuechuan take turns as the starter. If you can break through to above 35 Energy Level, you’ll be the starter, and Tian Xuechuan will be your substitute. Don’t worry, Tian Xuechuan is pretty lazy; he would prefer to be a substitute if you can start.” Kuang Shiyi looked at Chen Xing intently.
Three months, huh…
Coach, my goal isn’t just to break through to 35 Energy Level in three months; my goal is to achieve the first evolution before the College Cup, sign a contract with Sìxiàng and have a second Beast Taming.
Because besides the team competition, there’s also a singles competition in the College Cup!
Having obtained the coach’s promise, Chen Xing went to the poolside to continue today’s training.
Today he had prepared a training plan for Taotie: to practice the Proficiency Level of the skills “Death Roll” and “Great Vortex.” Especially “Death Roll,” being the only Attack Skill he currently mastered, was very important to improve its Proficiency Level.
Especially as Taotie’s size grew, the power it wrought with “Death Roll” became even more exaggerated.
Chen Xing also checked Sìxiàng’s Skills, and perhaps because a contract had not been signed yet, Sìxiàng’s Skills couldn’t be improved through interactive mini-games for the time being.
However, it could still undergo routine standard training—using the method other Beast Tamers used to train Skills, but this type of training placed more emphasis on innate talent.
