“Anything is possible!”
The homeroom teacher’s words were meant for Shen Fei, who had unfortunately drawn an F-class talent.
Instantly, Shen Fei felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He looked at their homeroom teacher with gratitude.
The homeroom teacher held the microphone and looked around at the students.
“From today onwards, all of you are officially on the path of beast tamers! As your teacher, I’ll just say a few more words. I wish you all the best in the future!”
“Yeah!” A loud round of applause rang throughout the bus.
After the speech, the homeroom teacher returned to the driver’s seat and began to drive everyone back to the academy.
…
About an hour later, Shen Fei and Lilian got off the bus together.
The bus had returned just in time for the final bell to ring.
The homeroom teacher simply dismissed them on the spot and let them go home.
“Bye, Shen Fei!” Lilian waved her hand at Shen Fei and turned to leave.
“Bye!”
Having just signed a contract with a spirit beast with the Phoenix Bloodline, Shen Fei was in an extremely good mood. He even walked faster than usual.
‘Once I return home. I’ll let the Flame Owl out to train for a while, and try to raise its rank to Baron as soon as possible.’
However, the most important thing was to quickly increase the owl’s constitution.
Since it was born with an inborn deficiency, this issue needed to be rectified soon.
After recuperating in the pocket realm for a long while, the Flame Owl’s sleepiness seemed to have improved. The color of its feathers seemed to have changed a little. From the base of the tail, the gorgeous blue hues from before started to slowly turn into a dazzling red.
Shen Fei hummed a little tune as he slowly walked forward according to the route in his memory. However, just as he turned around the corner…
…He spotted three familiar figures in front of him.
Shen Fei immediately became alert and retreated without a sound.
‘It’s them again!’
“Yo, Shen Fei, where are you going?”
A well-dressed blond youth brought two well-armed guards and walked towards Shen Fei.
Shen Fei quietly wiped the sweat off his forehead.
In Shen Fei’s memory, the three people in front of him were not good people.
The blond man was the son of a famous jeweler in this city, Li Yuan!
The Li family he belonged to was the second-strongest family in the entire city, and it was only one rank below the city governor’s estate.
The two guards beside him were beast tamers that his family had paid to support their son. They had at least two Count-rank spirit beasts under their command!
These three people very quickly blocked the small path that Shen Fei took to get home, making it impossible for anything to squeeze past them.
Shen Fei vigilantly observed the three people who moved to surround him.
Logically speaking, the Li family and the Shen family had no conflict.
The young master of the Li family shouldn’t have come to find trouble with him.
However, the bad thing was that his grandfather had impulsively signed an engagement for him.
One must know that the Li family’s young master, Li Yuan, had been madly in love with Luo since he was young.
In order to get into the same school as Aloy, he did not hesitate to invest tens of millions of Yuan and directly donated a laboratory building in that school.
Originally, his grades were average, and his talent was only a C. However, in the end, he still managed to enter this college with his money.
But even so, he could only see Aloy often in school.
This was because Shen Fei and Aloy had an engagement.
Therefore, Li Yuan has always regarded Shen Fei as a thorn in his side. For this reason, he has always looked for trouble with Shen Fei.
This time would probably be no exception.
The three people in front of him immediately came over and surrounded Shen Fei without the slightest hesitation.
Shen Fei vigilantly looked at the three people in front of him.
If he really had no choice but to fight, he would summon the Flame Owl and throw a burning ring at the other party’s face, then take the opportunity to flee!
Although he could not defeat them, he could still buy some time to escape.
“I’m here to make a long story short. Shen Fei.” Li Yuan looked at Shen Fei with extreme contempt. “I heard that when you were in the beast breeding tower today, Aloy actually appeared in public to intimidate the others on your behalf. And this happened not just once, but twice…”
When he said this, Li Yuan’s tone was so sour, that it could make unripe fruits seem ripe.
Shen Fei could not help but roll his eyes at him in his heart.
‘Can everyone not talk about the weird things Aloy has done? I’m a little confused, too. Moreover…’
Judging from Li Yuan’s sour tone, he was obviously rather jealous of him.
‘But what’s there to be jealous of? Just because Aloy had shouted for me? What an idiot.’
“How do you explain yourself, Aloy’s ‘fiancé’?”
“What are you just standing around for? Hurry up and answer our young master!”
The two lackeys beside Li Yuan picked up the pipes at the side and surrounded Shen Fei.
“If you don’t answer us properly, we’ll beat you up!”
Shen Fei looked at them, speechless. “What does this have to do with me—”
Before Shen Fei could finish his sentence, Li Yuan fiercely retorted, “How is it not related?!”
His tone of voice was filled with anger. “I asked the people who were there. They all said that Aloy did this to protect you! Hmph, you even lied to me that your relationship was not good. I think it’s plenty good now.”
Li Yuan coldly snorted and walked to Shen Fei’s side. The more he looked, the more he could not help but shake his head.
‘Idiot!’
Shen Fei looked at Li Yuan in front of him. In his heart, he had already cursed the other party until his vision seemed to turn red.
Even if he had just contracted the Flame Owl today, it looked like he would not have the time to evolve it beforehand. He promised himself that he would teach the three of them a good lesson today and stuff them into the trash can.
“Tell me, what do you have that makes Aloy want to help you?”
Thinking about what happened in the beast breeding tower, Shen Fei grew quite angry.
Why did Aloy suddenly stand up for him? How would Shen Fei know?!
In the past, Aloy had always ignored him. Even he practically treated Aloy as an invisible person in his life, and he could not wait to break off the engagement and regain his freedom.
Even if he stuck close to her, she would ignore him.
He clearly did not have any real feelings for Aloy, and neither of them even tried to put on any pretenses.
The idiot in front of him still targeted him out of jealousy from time to time. Shen Fei had to teach him a lesson.
This guy came to find trouble with him every two or three days, and the excuses he used were all related to Aloy.
In short, Li Yuan had used all kinds of methods to force him to break off the engagement.
Ever since Shen Fe’s grandfather had signed the marriage contract for him, the gazes of the people around him had never stopped.
But to put it bluntly, with this title, not only did Shen Fei not get any benefits, he even attracted a lot of hateful gazes.
“You must have misunderstood.” Shen Fei pretended to be helpless as he spread his hands and explained. “The shout that Aloy made in the beast breeding tower was not for me. I’m not even sure why she did it.”
