Chapter 286: Chapter 179: The "Despicable and Sly" Twin Flower Concubine? (Part 2)

"Hm?" Chen Yuan paused, looking down at Twin Flower Concubine.

This wasn’t like Twin Flower Concubine’s usual demeanor.

But as Chen Yuan pondered, he suddenly recalled that Twin Flower Concubine had recently mastered a poison skill.

Indeed, thanks to the patient guidance of the Black-striped Spider and days of self-study, Twin Flower Concubine finally learned a very sinister poison skill.

Could it be that Twin Flower Concubine wants to test its combat strengths?

To speak truth, Twin Flower Concubine has yet to partake in a formal one-on-one pet beast duel. The battles it experienced so far were all large-scale skirmishes where it hid off to the side using [Sweet Fragrance] to affect opponents.

Chen Yuan’s positioning of Twin Flower Concubine was also as such, with a focus on healing and support, without the need to engage in direct combat.

Yet now it seems, even the gentle and kind-hearted Twin Flower Concubine harbors some desire for battle.

"Since you wish to fight, go for it." Chen Yuan fully respected each little companion’s wishes, gently tapped Twin Flower Concubine’s forehead, and spoke softly.

"Hm hm~"

Looking at the smiling Chen Yuan, Twin Flower Concubine’s gaze was firm.

As long as I am strong enough, I can protect "Mom"!

Summoning a waiter and explaining his wish, Chen Yuan soon held a Combat Club membership registration form.

[Name: Chen Yuan

Level: Mid-level Beastmaster]

After filling out the form, he paid ten dollars, and the waiter bowed, "Sir, please wait while we arrange an opponent of equivalent strength for you."

"Thank you."

Chen Yuan continued eating, and after about ten minutes, the initial waiter returned: "Sir, we have found a suitable opponent for you, follow me to the battle arena."

"Alright."

Chen Yuan looked up and saw a muscular man standing in the arena, excessively buff and wearing a composed smile.

Lin Hongwei and Gong Jia were sitting in a small booth nearby, watching the muscular man on the field.

"This guy’s here to exploit again." Lin Hongwei remarked with a smirk.

The muscular man named Yuan Xiong was also a student at Yunhua Beast Taming Academy, just like them.

However, compared to them, Yuan Xiong’s academy ranking was at the bottom tier.

But even as a bottom-tier student, he was more than capable of bullying ordinary beastmasters outside the academy.

Since the restaurant club teamed up with the Combat Club to introduce this new event, he had frequented here every few days to duel, amassing points.

With a Tier Two Pet Beast, his win rate was extremely high, having already gained a lot of points.

Perhaps soon, the restaurant might set new rules to limit the number of participations per member within a certain timeframe.

But at the moment, since Yuan Xiong was winning fairly, without exploiting the event, earning these points was within the regulations.

"Jiajia, let’s join in later too, it’s great to digest after a full meal." Lin Hongwei decided to engage in such activities.

"Sure." Gong Jia beamed with a smile.

"By the way, isn’t the Beastmaster competition starting registration tomorrow?" Lin Hongwei suddenly remembered an important matter.

"Yes, tomorrow we will go to the association to sign up together." Gong Jia nodded.

"Hope we achieve great results in our first competition." Talking about the tournament that countless beastmasters in Qin Province were watching, Lin Hongwei couldn’t help but feel excited.

If one achieves stellar results in such a large-scale competition, it would be bringing glory to the family.

At home dining, once he arrives at the table, no elders would start eating without him.

"By the way, I saw Yang Yue and Li Qing being interviewed by reporters at the academy yesterday." Gong Jia suddenly changed the topic.

Lin Hongwei apparently hadn’t heard about it: "Huh? This happened?"

"Yes, yes, not just reporters, but several members of the Investigation Department came to commend them." Gong Jia’s tone was filled with envy, "It would be great if I could be like them."

Lin Hongwei curiously asked, "What did they do?"

"They helped in capturing a poaching team while training at Qinling, I heard." Gong Jia replied.

"Qinling huh....." Lin Hongwei’s expression shifted slightly, as if recalling something, he sighed, "We ended up caught in a cave at Qinling, waiting for someone to rescue us."

"And they made such a contribution."

Gong Jia covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, "At that time, we all thought the Earth Bear would eat us, luckily Advisor Chen arrived promptly."

"Indeed... luckily Advisor Chen was there." Speaking of this, Lin Hongwei held Gong Jia’s right hand, smiling as he said, "Last time, Advisor Chen didn’t accept our gratitude gift, next time we train at Qinling, let’s pick a gift for Advisor Chen."

"This is a life-saving favor, Advisor Chen might not care, but we must remember it fondly."

"Yes! I will follow your lead." Gong Jia nodded earnestly.

The two snuggled closer together, their mouths nearing, when Gong Jia’s eyes suddenly brightened, abruptly rising and staring out the window.

Missing the chance, Lin Hongwei cursed under his breath damn it, then raised his head to look outside—a familiar figure slowly stepped into the battle arena.

Lin Hongwei’s eyes widened, his voice full of intrigue: "Advisor Chen?"

Skeptical he had mistaken, Lin Hongwei quickly rubbed his eyes, the entering figure aligning swiftly with the familiar figure in his memory.

This is Advisor Chen!

"Advisor Chen came to Phoenix City!"

At this moment, Lin Hongwei put aside any thought of kissing his girlfriend, rushing out of the booth, eager to bring Advisor Chen over for a meal.

Gong Jia tugged Lin Hongwei’s sleeve, reminding, "Advisor Chen is about to battle."

"Oh, right." Lin Hongwei realized with sudden clarity, then looked at the two in the battle arena, his mouth curving upwards, "If his opponent is Advisor Chen, Yuan Xiong is bound to lose miserably."
