Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 185 Preparation_1

"He’s really an enigma..."

Chen Xin sighed deeply, and Teacher Yan smiled and said,

"What? Fallen for him?"

Chen Xin glanced at Teacher Yan and sighed,

"How could that be, it’s just some reflections... Freely liking someone... I don’t have that privilege right now..."

Teacher Yan understood what Chen Xin meant; he was one of the few teachers who knew about Chen Xin’s situation. With another sigh, Teacher Yan said,

"Tell me what Spiritual Medicine and Materials you’re missing, and I’ll see if I can help you get them."

Chen Xin hesitated for a moment before saying,

"Thank you, I hate to trouble you."

Standing up to take another look at Yue Bai, Teacher Yan said with a hint of helplessness,

"Since Yue Bai is having such serious issues right now, you should hold off on his combat training for the time being." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"Right..."

Chen Xin listed out what he still needed; Teacher Yan recalled for a moment and then said,

"These are all quite rare materials... I’ll go out into the wild and look for them for you some other day."

"No! Feng Yuan said he knows where those things can be found, but even he would have to bring Agunas to harvest them, so there’s no need for you to go looking specifically."

Teacher Yan looked at Chen Xin, saw his resolute expression, thought for a moment, and then said,

"Alright, I’ll ask old Chen to see if they have any; but if you’re going to ask for their help, you’ll have to pay market price."

"Yes, I’ll pay the market price."

"That’s basically it, practice on your own from now on."

Having finished the explanation and seeing Xiao Ji barely managing to influence the unleashed ultimate move, Feng Yuan said to Xiao Ji, who blinked, hoping for a continued demonstration. Feng Yuan stretched and said,

"Alright, knock it off. You’ve learned the techniques; the only thing left is mastering them. Constantly receiving energy from Agunas is exhausting, okay?"

Seeing Feng Yuan sit down on a nearby chair to rest, Xiao Ji realized that Feng Yuan was probably tired. Disappointed but still determined, Xiao Ji continued to practice energy manipulation techniques. Dreaming Dragon Baby spat out fire, changing the flames into various shapes, and looked at Xiao Ji smugly. Feng Yuan couldn’t help but laugh a little and said,

"Stop it, Dreaming Dragon Baby. That’s just the inherent feature of your fire-breathing ability. Once you’re proficient, you can naturally control the flames you spit out. If you really want to show off, try controlling the Fire Vortex."

Dreaming Dragon Baby glared at Feng Yuan and spat out a Fire Vortex. The vortex didn’t change shape as Dreaming Dragon Baby had hoped, and under its control, it became extremely unstable. After the explosion of the Fire Vortex, Dreaming Dragon Baby shyly ducked under the chair, only its tail flicking in and out. It took a while before poking its head out, then floated out, relieved, when it saw only Feng Yuan watching with amusement.

"You... obviously didn’t listen to my entire explanation just now, how did you even cause an explosion~"

"Arrogant!"

"Alright. If you want to learn, I can explain it to you now, but I won’t demonstrate it again."

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Dreaming Dragon Baby looked aggrievedly at Xiao Ji with its tail; Xiao Ji looked back smugly and continued practicing energy manipulation. Dreaming Dragon Baby growled softly, looking pitifully at Feng Yuan, who began explaining the techniques after stroking Dreaming Dragon Baby’s head.

After a while, many people’s Spirit Beasts had become exhausted, so they gradually finished their combat practice. Qi Chen came over, carrying the tired Ah Mu, and seeing Xiao Ji and Dreaming Dragon Baby trying to get fancy with their abilities, he asked Feng Yuan curiously,

"Are you having them practice making their moves more spectacular?"

"No, they’re not interested in that sort of thing, so why would I bother?"

"Then what are they doing?"

Looking at the two little guys working hard, Feng Yuan said,

"Practicing energy manipulation techniques."

"Energy manipulation?"

Qi Chen was puzzled and then exclaimed in surprise,

"Isn’t that a high-level skill only introduced at the Elite Level? Dreaming Dragon Baby is fine, but Xiao Ji hasn’t reached that level yet, right?"

"Who said that technique has anything to do with strength? It’s just that most Spirit Beasts only develop the ability to influence their moves after reaching the Elite Level. Xiao Ji is a bit special; its control over its own energy is not less than that of an Ordinary Elite Level Spirit Beast. It’s just that I hadn’t noticed before that it was throwing out moves without any control."

After hearing Feng Yuan’s explanation, Qi Chen said with annoyance,

"Isn’t it all your own fault? Every time something happens, you just charge in yourself, and Xiao Ji really only got to fight a handful of times!"

"Don’t worry, don’t worry~ That won’t happen anymore~ From now on, I’ll rely on Xiao Ji and Agunas~"

"Really? Why do I feel like in the end it will still be you personally stepping into the fray?"

Seeing that Qi Chen completely didn’t believe him, Feng Yuan thought it over and realized he had indeed just directly asked Agunas for a power boost... Sighing and scratching his face with his index finger, Feng Yuan sheepishly said,

"That shouldn’t happen, right...?"

"Yeah, right... With that tone of yours, I already know the outcome..."

Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan speechlessly, and Feng Yuan, feeling guilty, turned his back to Qi Chen and whistled pretending he knew nothing.

After class on Friday afternoon, seeing that Qi Chen didn’t pack up his stuff to go home, Feng Yuan asked with some confusion,

"What’s up? Trouble at home?"

"What are you thinking? Tomorrow I’m accompanying you to the Special Duties Team, so I’m not going home tonight."

"Eh? What for?"

Qi Chen glanced at the clueless Feng Yuan and said irritably,

"I’m worried that if I don’t take you there myself, you’ll probably find some other excuse to sneak away and avoid reporting in."

"Am I that kind of person...?"

"The first semester, you promised..."

Listening to Qi Chen listing Feng Yuan’s flaky incidents, the Dreaming Dragon Baby grinned, watching Feng Yuan. Feng Yuan, his face turning slightly red, patted the Dreaming Dragon Baby on the head and said,

"Weren’t those all accidents? And didn’t I explain afterward?"

"Getting lost in the dormitory, so you missed the team? You were supposed to attend the activity to clean up Maomu Plaza, so how did you end up following someone else’s spring outing group?"

As Qi Chen rattled off his grievances, Feng Yuan kept his head down as if he was listening intently, but the Dreaming Dragon Baby curiously floated over to Feng Yuan’s ear and fished out an earphone. Puzzled, it looked at it, and Qi Chen sighed without saying anything more. Feng Yuan grinned and put away the earphone, then turned to Qi Chen and sincerely apologized. Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan, annoyed, and said,

"Anyway, once I take you to the Special Duties Team tomorrow, I’m leaving. Just don’t mess up on your first day. After all, it is a punishment."

"I know, I know~"

Seeing Big Cat searching through books, Feng Yuan hesitated and then asked Qi Chen,

"Are you free tomorrow?"

"What do you need?"

Stroking the feathers on the back of Big Cat’s neck, Feng Yuan said,

"Can you take Big Cat to the Great Library to check some materials for me? You know that Spirit Beasts aren’t allowed to enter on their own."

After thinking, Qi Chen nodded and said,

"I can, but don’t blame me if I can’t take good care of Big Cat."

"No worries, Big Cat is just going to look up some information. Oh, and Big Cat, make sure you stick close to Qi Chen, ok? If you get lost, he won’t be able to sense your location."

Remembering Big Cat’s issue, Feng Yuan couldn’t help but reiterate. Najia shook its head, floated down from the top bunk, landed on Big Cat’s head, and gestured to Feng Yuan. Feng Yuan guessed,

"You mean you’re going to accompany Big Cat?"

Seeing Najia nod, Feng Yuan thought for a moment and then said,

"That works too. With you keeping an eye on things, I won’t have to worry about Big Cat getting lost. So, thank you guys~"

"It’s no trouble, just make sure you’ve briefed Big Cat well."

"Guna~"

Hearing Nagna’s voice, Qi Chen looked out the window puzzled and said,

"Came to see Xiao Ji?"

"Seems like she’s here for me."

Looking at what Nagna was holding in her hands, Feng Yuan seemed to understand Nagna’s intention.
