Beast Taming: I Can Bestow Entries-Chapter 107 Qingqiu Fox
Chapter 107: Chapter 107 Qingqiu Fox
National Daoist School Competition Day 5 at noon.
Chen Mo and the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit were making lunch in the kitchen when his phone suddenly vibrated.
It was a call from Sister Meng.
Chen Mo pressed the answer button, and Chen Meng’s cool voice came through:
"Luo Li’s Qingqiu Fox has chosen to go to the Qingqiu Secret Realm tomorrow for a breakthrough. I’ll come and take you with me then."
"Uh huh, thanks Sister Meng. I’m currently in Kyoto City for the National Daoist School Competition," Chen Mo replied.
"I know, I watched your competition, you did well!"
Just as Chen Mo was about to humbly reply, he heard Chen Meng continue—
"I mean Xiao Jiu and the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit."
"Tweet!" (・∀・)
"Ow~"╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Chen Mo: ...
Forget it, praising the Spiritual Beasts is pretty much praising the Spirit Master, no difference.
The two chatted a bit more about everyday things, then Chen Meng hung up as she had something to do.
Chen Mo sighed.
The trip to Qingqiu and the Daoist School Competition were still clashing.
Today, the first round of the preliminaries ended, and the rules for the second round would be announced tomorrow, with the competition starting the day after tomorrow.
However, Chen Mo wasn’t too troubled; Xiao Jiu’s evolution was naturally much more important than the Daoist School Competition. He definitely needed to go to the Qingqiu Secret Realm.
He hoped that the trip to Qingqiu wouldn’t take too long, so he could still make it back for the second round of the preliminaries.
"Master, I have some urgent matters and might need to leave for a few days," Chen Mo told She Lei.
"Is it dangerous?" She Lei asked.
"No danger, it just involves the next evolution path for Xiao Jiu. I’ll try my best to come back soon."
"Okay, then take care," She Lei nodded, giving him a word of caution and then asking no further.
He was rather confident in Chen Mo.
The next morning, at Training Ground number 1 of the competitors’ village.
Chen Meng descended slowly on a Bright Unicorn.
Sister Meng was wearing a leather jacket and sunglasses today, looking as cool as ever.
However, her usually short hair had turned into flowing long locks, giving her a much gentler appearance.
It’s unknown what brand of hair growth product she used.
"Sister Meng, good morning, Tuantuan made some soup dumplings, would you like some?"
Chen Mo handed over the soup dumplings.
Having a sensible Food Spirit was great, at least there were no worries about meals three times a day.
"Ow~"
Seeing a stranger,
the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit instinctively hid behind Chen Mo, then peeked out with one eye to secretly observe.
"Sure."
Chen Meng nodded; she hadn’t had breakfast and hadn’t expected Chen Mo to be so thoughtful.
She casually took a soup dumpling and tasted it with chopsticks.
"Tastes good."
"Xingqiu, you have some too."
Chen Mo naturally didn’t forget the Bright Unicorn.
The Bright Unicorn elegantly ate a soup dumpling, and then its eyes lit up.
The dumplings were unexpectedly delicious.
Thin skin, generous filling, tender and juicy meat, with a light hint of fragrance.
Unable to maintain its composure, the unicorn quickly devoured a whole basket of dumplings.
"Ow!"
Seeing this, the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit slowly drifted out from behind Chen Mo.
Anyone who enjoyed its cooking definitely couldn’t be a bad person!
"Sister Meng, where shall we meet Senior Luo Li next?" Chen Mo asked.
"Not far, just at the hotel next door."
Chen Meng said while eating.
Chen Mo, Blazing Flame Fox: ???
"Sister Luo Li set up her own Daoist School and also participated in this Daoist School competition. She shared your competition video with me."
Chen Meng explained.
Well, it turns out this Senior has been living right next door all this time.
Senior Luo Li is probably in a rush to break through in order to achieve a better ranking in the national Daoist School challenge.
Chen Mo silently thought to himself.
"Let’s go, I’ll take you there."
In less than two minutes, Chen Meng had devoured all the Xiaolongbao and then spoke.
The two arrived at the hotel next door.
Soon, a tall woman with a ponytail, wearing denim shorts and a white T-shirt walked down. She looked like she was just over twenty, with fair skin, but what caught the eye the most were her long legs.
"Mengmeng, long time no see!"
The woman greeted warmly and hugged Chen Meng.
"Don’t call me by my nickname."
Chen Meng said expressionlessly.
"Okay, okay."
Luo Li chuckled, then turned her gaze to Chen Mo and greeted cheerily:
"Hello, I’m Mengmeng’s former roommate and best friend, Luo Li. You are the Spirit Master of Blazing Flame Fox and Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit, right?"
Luo Li had watched Chen Mo’s match, and laughed hard at the Glutinous Rice Dumpling using the spicy dumpling machine gun to blast the Fire Dragon Beast.
However, she only remembered the names of the Spiritual Beasts, not the name of the Spirit Master.
"Um, hello Senior Luo Li, my name is Chen Mo, currently I am under Sister Meng’s command."
Chen Mo introduced himself.
He had originally thought Senior Luo Li would be older, but she turned out to be quite young.
Of course, one shouldn’t judge a Spirit Master’s age simply by their appearance.
"Oh~ subordinate huh..."
Luo Li looked at Chen Meng with a meaningful expression.
Silence speaks volumes.
Office romance, huh? Didn’t see you being such a player!
Chen Meng helplessly turned her head away as she already guessed what Luo Li was thinking, and quickly changed the topic:
"By the way, where is A Jiu?"
A Jiu is the name of Luo Li’s Qingqiu Fox.
"Still sleeping in the Spiritual Space!"
Spiritual Space gives Spiritual Beasts a comfortable and warm feeling, so many of them enjoy sleeping there.
Xiao Jiu is an exception; the little guy particularly likes to lie on Chen Mo’s chest to sleep.
If it weren’t for Chen Mo’s improved physique after becoming a Spirit Master, he’d definitely suffer from chest tightness.
"Wuu〜〜〜"
Seemingly detecting the outside noise, Luo Li’s Qingqiu Fox hummed softly and woke up.
"Come on out!"
In front of Luo Li appeared a complex ice-blue array, and a fox-like Spiritual Beast with three large fluffy tails gracefully emerged from the array.
The Qingqiu Fox was much larger than Xiao Jiu, about the size of a regular tiger, with snow-white fur except for a bit of ice-blue at the tips of the three tails.
After coming out of the Spiritual Space, a thin layer of frost formed on the ground where the Qingqiu Fox stood, and the surrounding air instantly became much colder.
Clearly, Luo Li’s Qingqiu Fox was of an ice attribute.
Like Eevee in Pokemon, the initial form of Qingqiu Young Fox has no specific attribute, but can evolve into different forms of Qingqiu Fox through various nurturing methods.
"Chirp!"
Xiao Jiu enthusiastically waved its paw in greeting.
"Woo~"
The Qingqiu Fox nodded slightly, then remained silent.
Luo Li’s Qingqiu Fox had a rather cold and haughty personality, not fond of speaking.
"Senior Luo Li, have you had breakfast? My Tuantuan made some Xiaolongbao, would you like some?"
At that moment, Chen Mo pulled out two baskets of steaming Xiaolongbao from the Space Ring.
Seeing this familiar scene, Chen Meng instantly froze.
Engaging in Xiaolongbao diplomacy, huh?
Although she had to admit, the Xiaolongbao made by the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit was indeed quite delicious.
