Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 352 None of these pet beasts can fight!
October 1, Wednesday.

Negative.

[Qinling Forest Rangers' Secret Base Group 1]

Lanxian forest ranger Xiao Lin: Brothers, the nocturnal noisy magpie I told you about a while ago has finally been dealt with!

Fengxian forest ranger Xiao Wang: Didn't you say that this giant finches are good at hiding their bodies and fly very fast, making them difficult to catch?

Lanxian forest ranger Xiaolin: Can it be faster than Consultant Chen's Blazing Falcon?
Fengxian forest ranger Xiao Wang: Did Consultant Chen personally resolve this?
Lanxian Forest Ranger Xiao Lin: Yes, yes, it happened last night. Chen Yuan personally came to me to understand the situation, and found that Great Screaming Sparrow in less than ten minutes. As soon as the Blazing Falcon appeared, wow, the flames dispelled a large area of ​​darkness, and the Great Screaming Sparrow had nowhere to hide. Tsk tsk, it even only used one move, and the Great Screaming Sparrow surrendered willingly. It's a pity you didn't see what happened.

Meixian forest ranger Ameng: Did Consultant Chen also visit you last night?
Meixian Forest Ranger Amon: It happened around 11 PM last night. Consultant Chen came to Meixian specifically to deal with the Thunder Shadow Leopard hiding deep in the mountains. You all know how strong this guy is; ordinary third-tier pets can't handle him. As a result, Consultant Chen sent out Morning and Evening Flower Fairy, who simply waved her hand, and the Thunder Shadow Leopard, which was constantly attacking passersby, turned into a little puppy.

Forest ranger Xiao Li from Chenghuang County: What? Consultant Chen also went to Mei County? Around 12:30 AM, Consultant Chen arrived in Chenghuang County to deal with that thing.
The group chat quickly became lively, with messages appearing one after another, as everyone shared their stories of meeting Consultant Chen the day before.

After a long while, Xiaolin, the editor who first brought up the topic, sent a long message:
"In other words, starting yesterday evening, Consultant Chen led his pets to various places to deal with the special situations that had arisen during this period. Any pet that had reached the third tier of strength was severely punished by him."

"The battles were all swift and decisive, almost all of them resulting in instant kills."

"Either admit your mistake on the spot, or be sent to a training base to reform."

"And Consultant Chen handled these special cases in just one night."

"Is that right?"

Everyone chimed in, and soon began to talk at once about Consultant Chen's high efficiency and formidable strength.

What they considered extremely troublesome and powerful wild beasts were as weak as a common roadside lark in front of Advisor Chen.

Just then, another message popped up.

Weixian forest ranger Song Wei: "To be more precise, Consultant Chen started dealing with these special situations in the afternoon."

"The dog with broken bones near Daping Village was also dealt with by Consultant Chen. He was so fast that I didn't even see the battle."

"Advisor Shi was with me at the time. He saw this and remained silent for a long time before finally expressing deep emotion."

"Although these wild pets cause some trouble for the surrounding residents, they are useful. They can serve as sparring partners for Advisor Chen in his preparation for the Donghuang Tournament."

"The reason why Consultant Chen did not rush to deal with them before was firstly because their severity was not high and they still needed to be observed. Consultant Chen decided to give them a chance to correct themselves."

"Secondly, Consultant Chen hopes they can grow quickly and become good sparring partners."

"But judging from yesterday's situation, Consultant Chen must be very disappointed."

"None of these pet beasts are strong enough to fight."

Xuanhe Town
farm.

"Ouch!"

Cola slapped the ground with its paws, scattering snowflakes everywhere.

None of those guys last night could fight!
It's so boring!
Not fun at all!
As he pondered, Cola raised his head and gazed at the distant mountain range, his eyes gleaming.

I hope those guys in the deep mountains will let me have a good fight!

Then break through to the fourth tier and reclaim the position of the farm's leader!

"Are you ready?"

Just then, Chen Yuan's voice rang in his ears. Cola looked up in surprise and ran happily toward its owner, who was carrying a hiking backpack.

Ouch!

everything's ready!
Chen Yuan reached out and patted the dog's head, then looked at the little guys who were waiting quietly to the side. A smile appeared on his face, and with a wave of his hand, he said loudly, "Then let's go!"

Yesterday, on a whim, he went to handle a special situation in the forest ranger area under his responsibility, while also giving the kids a chance to hone their skills.

Those wild pets that can cause trouble in the surrounding area must be quite powerful.

However, the result disappointed him. Most of the wild pets that lived near human settlements were of average strength. Even those with third-tier strength were considered to be of lower-middle level among their peers.

Once the battle began, the little guys defeated him almost instantly, making the battle rather dull.

Such battles do not serve to hone one's skills in the slightest, but instead yield a considerable amount of Source Points.

Chen Yuan and the little ones need higher-quality battles, not one-sided fights with no suspense and no challenge.

After dealing with these special circumstances, Chen Yuan prepared to go into the mountains today to officially begin special training and search for powerful pet beasts inhabiting the core area of ​​the Qinling Mountains.

His current planned training area is the distance from the westernmost to the easternmost edge of the Qinling Mountains.

Of course, this refers to the Qinling Mountains section within Shaanxi Province, not the east-west distance of the Qinling Mountains themselves.

Chen Yuan had previously only been active around Taibai County, at most venturing into the mysterious forest in the core area, but had not yet ventured into other regions.

This is a rare opportunity to see other areas of the Qinling Mountains.

Thoughts flashed by, Chen Yuan tightened his backpack on his back, checked the supplies one last time, and said, "Let's go."

Because the training area was too large, Chen Yuan did not bring the Fallen Horned Beast with him this time. Instead, he planned to ride Spark the entire way to reach the destination as quickly as possible, thereby improving training efficiency.

Therefore, he did not carry too many supplies, prioritizing reducing his load.

"Ow!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Cola responded first, flicking its tail and creating an invisible airflow around it, then took a step and soared into the air.

Seeing that its owner and friends hadn't followed yet, Cola looked back and urged them on urgently.

Hurry up and keep up!
I can't wait!
"Yinyin".

Morning and Evening Flower Fairy sat quietly on Chen Yuan's shoulder, her little feet swinging gently, a faint smile appearing on her exquisite and flawless face.

A gentle breeze caressed my cheeks, but it couldn't blow away the smile that made me feel like I was bathed in a spring breeze.

Chen Yuan held Egg in his left hand and Sprite in his right, then rolled over and landed on Spark's back.

These two little guys were added to the training program temporarily.

Sprite had been feeling cooped up at home for a while, and this time she started nagging and demanding to go out with Coke.

Sprite has been home for some time now and is no longer the helpless little cub it once was, although its strength is still among the lowest on the farm.

But it has indeed reached the stage where it needs to go out and experience the harsh realities of the world.

As for Egg, Chen Yuan simply didn't feel comfortable leaving it on the farm.

This guy has a mysterious background, and he only feels at ease when he has him by his side at all times.

Therefore, the pre-match training lineup is as follows: Chen Yuan, Huohua, Kele, Chenmu Huaxian, Xuebi, and Dandan.

Seeing that the little ones were ready, Chen Yuan waved to the members who stayed at the farm: "I'm leaving the farm in your care. I hope everything will be the same when I come back."

"quack!"

"Electricity!"

Runrun Duck and Dian Dian Flying Cat responded the loudest, their eyes shining and their expressions excited, as if they were truly the most diligent employees.

But when Chen Yuan looked away, the two little ones exchanged a glance, and everything was understood without a word.

"Crack."

The most reassuring one is still Ironhead. Its words are concise and to the point, and the sharp blade that gleams with a cold light exudes reliability.

As Spark took flight and disappeared into the boundless sky along with the other little creatures, excited cheers erupted instantly.

"Quack quack!"

"Electricity!"

Good days have begun again on the farm.

But when the two little ones excitedly entered the lobby and turned on the TV, the TV series didn't appear for a long time.

Electric Flying Cat looked puzzled and pressed the remote control randomly, but the TV screen it was so eager for never appeared.

Runrun Duck swaggered toward the television and gently tapped it with its wing, but the screen remained unresponsive.

"quack!"

Duck was furious and was about to have a showdown with the wretched TV when it suddenly noticed a small note behind the TV. Electric Flying Cat also came over.

He held up a note that read: "My TV subscription is due. I'll pay the bill when I get home. - Chen Yuan"

Under Chen Yuan's pressure, the two little ones, who had already completed the initial elementary school curriculum, froze on the spot upon seeing this line of text, like two silent statues.

Nothing's happening today, but Duck is shedding tears.

Baofeng Mountain is located at the westernmost part of the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi Province. Although it is not as famous as the main peak, Taibai Mountain, it is steep and precipitous with dense vegetation and is quite popular in the local area.

Since the revival of spiritual energy, Baofeng Mountain has also undergone tremendous changes, naturally giving rise to a large number and variety of wild pets, making it an excellent training ground for beast tamers in the surrounding area.

Chen Yuan's pre-match training began here.

The chill of winter enveloped Baofeng Mountain in a silver-white world. Thick snow covered the rugged rocks, and the bare branches, like countless withered arms reaching towards the gray sky, were covered with glistening icicles.

The cold wind howled, whipping up fine snowflakes that stung my face like needles.

"Yuanbao, are we lost?"

A boy, wrapped in a thick down jacket and with his nose red from the cold, was trudging through the deep snow, his voice trembling with worry and tears.

"Ow"

The tungus's bright red fur was covered in snowflakes, and its four short legs struggled to trudge through the deep snow. It hung its head and followed closely beside Gao Xiaoye, letting out a pitiful whimper.

"Yuanbao, you're acting all aggrieved! It's clearly all your fault!"

Seeing the Firefly Dog's reaction, Gao Xiaoye stopped and looked down at the Firefly Dog, her face full of resentment.

"If it weren't for you chasing butterflies, we wouldn't have gotten separated from our teachers!"

"If we hadn't gotten separated from our teachers, we wouldn't have gotten lost!"

As she spoke, Gao Xiaoye looked around at the desolate snowfield and the bare forest, a chilling sense of desolation rising in her heart.

"Ow"

Knowing it was in the wrong, the Firefly lowered its head even further, its short tail wagging gently.

A cold wind brushed against her face, and Gao Xiaoye couldn't help but tighten her down jacket, her tone becoming even more complaining: "It won't be long before it gets dark, and then all sorts of dangerous pets will appear."

At this point, he glanced at the chubby Firefly and deliberately said in a threatening tone, "Those dangerous pets love little guys like you with firm, tender flesh."

"Awooo!" The velvet dog trembled.

Gao Xiaoye sighed deeply, gazing at the desolate scene before him, his voice low and ethereal: "When the teachers find me, they will definitely tell my parents what happened here."

"Based on past experience, a mixed doubles beating is definitely inevitable."

The Firefly blinked, seemingly not quite understanding what was going on.

Gao Xiaoye squatted down, staring intently at the Firefly Dog, and said, "This time you caused the trouble, so you have to help me."

"I'll just put all the blame on you then, and they definitely won't punish you."

"After all, you were bought by them at a high price, and every part of you exudes the aura of money."

"How about it?"

"Awooo!" The Firefly Dog, not understanding why, took the initiative to rub its wet nose against Gao Xiaoye's palm.

“Very good.” Gao Xiaoye finally smiled. He slowly stood up, his face beaming with pride. “Then let’s work together to find a way out of here. The outdoor survival skills I’ve learned recently will come in handy.”

A person and their pet stepped onto the snow, beginning their search for their way home.

They continued along the path they had come from, and after a while they suddenly heard a sound of energy colliding ahead.

"There's a sound!" Gao Xiaoye's eyes lit up as if she had grasped a lifeline. "It must be the teachers and the others. Yuanbao, hurry up and follow us!"

"Ow!"

The man and his pet tumbled and crawled over a small snow slope, and suddenly the view opened up before them—a relatively open clearing in the forest covered with snow. The teachers and classmates he was expecting did not appear; instead, there was a tall young man wearing a dark gray windbreaker.

His face was calm, his eyes sharp, as he calmly watched the battle ahead.

On the field,

A winter dog covered in snow-white fur and with a cold gaze is confronting a swift and beautifully manicured ice fox.

"Sprite, Hanxi." The young man's voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.

"Ouch~"

The Winter Hound suddenly opened its mouth, and a concentrated, tangible breath of frost, carrying a chilling cold, instantly erupted, precisely covering the path that the Ice Fox was trying to dodge.

The Ice Fox froze, and the color of its fur seemed to dim slightly.

"Ice Crack Claw." Chen Yuan's voice rang out again.

Gao Xiaoye was taken aback upon hearing this.

The teacher often emphasized that the battle situation is constantly changing, and the Beastmaster must use his mind to command the battle.

Why is this beast tamer giving orders?
As the thought flashed by, Sprite's figure moved like lightning, closing the distance between them in an instant. Her sharp claws, covered in ice, tore through the air with a sharp whistling sound, and fiercely grabbed at the Ice Fox!

"Ouch!" The Ice Fox cried out in pain, a deep claw mark revealing bone left on its body. The moment its movements stopped, its body swayed and it seemed about to collapse.

"Let's stop here." Chen Yuan's voice suddenly rang out, stopping Xue Bi, who was preparing to press her advantage.

"Ow~"

Sprite glanced at the Ice Fox lying on the ground, then raised her head high and walked briskly back to Chen Yuan's side.

Baofeng Mountain won their first battle!
Then, Chen Yuan strode over to the Ice Fox, squatted down, and took out a healing spray to treat its wounds: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, spray this and you'll be jumping around again soon."

"Eek~" The Ice Fox struggled but could not, and could only let Chen Yuan do as he pleased.

Upon seeing this, Gao Xiaoye forgot her fear of being lost and the freezing weather. She jumped out from behind the snowdrift where she was hiding, excitedly waving her arms and shouting, "Hello, can we have a match?"

“Your Winterhound, and my Flamehound!” Gao Xiaoye gently kicked the Flamehound, whose eyes immediately sharpened and a clear bark rang out.

Chen Yuan turned his head upon hearing the sound and looked at the boy who had been discovered by him long ago. His face was red from the cold, but his eyes were shining with a fanatical light.

I never expected to encounter a battle-crazed teenager in this desolate wilderness.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of barely perceptible interest flashing in his eyes, then nodded: "Alright, let's stop here."

"Great, Yuanbao, get ready for battle!"

Gao Xiaoye was immediately excited. He led the Firefly Hound to face Chen Yuan, who growled at Sprite, his fiery red fur bristling slightly.

"Ow~"

Sprite tilted her head, showing great interest in the velvet dog in front of her that was about the same size as herself. She then slowly stepped forward, her eyes as cold as winter.

Chen Yuan stood quietly in place, waiting for Gao Xiaoye to take the lead in giving instructions.

Although the Firefly Dog and the Winter Dog may be of similar level, their strength is definitely worlds apart.

During the winter, the dog lived a peaceful and comfortable life on the farm. Rare spiritual plants were fed to it whenever it opened its mouth, and the powerful Cola boss who dominated the Qinling Mountains would give it guidance whenever it barked.

In terms of resources, background, and talent, Sprite is the best choice.

Although it wasn't contracted by Chen Yuan, it was more than capable of disciplining this Firefly Hound.

Thoughts flashed by, and Chen Yuan couldn't help but mutter, "This is truly a case of beating up a baby."

Then, Chen Yuan looked at Gao Xiaoye, who was looking very nervous, and smiled slightly: "Don't be nervous, is this your first time participating in a pet battle?"

Gao Xiaoye shook her head and then nodded: "No, but this is my first time fighting in the wild."

Chen Yuan nodded knowingly: "Then you go first."

Gao Xiaoye let out a long breath, her eyes narrowed, and a thought flashed through her mind: "Yuanbao, Flame Energy Assault!"

"Ow!"

The Firefly Dog's body flashed with crimson light, its speed suddenly increased, flames covered its entire body, and it charged towards Sprite with a scorching aura!

Flames surged, melting the accumulated snow.

"Cold Breath," Chen Yuan said calmly.

Sprite suddenly opened its mouth, and instantly a concentrated frost breath burst forth, which quickly swept into a surging cold breath, roaring towards the attacking Firefly Hound!

The Firehound was forced into the range of the cold breath, and its scorching aura was instantly suppressed by the cold breath. Its sprinting speed slowed down at a visible speed, and a thin layer of white frost even condensed on its body.

The next moment, the crimson light on the Firefly Dog dimmed, as if it had been frozen into an ice sculpture.

"Ingots!"

Upon seeing the Firefly Dog, which was almost frozen solid, Gao Xiaoye was first taken aback, and then shouted anxiously.

But the Firefly Hound could no longer hear the Beastmaster's calls.

Just then, Sprite strolled over to the Firefly Dog as if taking a leisurely walk. It blinked its deep blue eyes, then raised its Ice Crack Claw and swung it out fiercely!
A chill ran through the air, and the frost covering the Firefly Dog shattered layer by layer like a spider web, followed by a clear claw mark appearing on its back.

Before Gao Xiaoye could issue a dodge command, the Firefly Dog was already severely injured and fell to the ground in the snow.

Gao Xiaoye's eyes were glazed over, and her face was blank.

Firefly only used one skill, how did it fall down like that?
Chen Yuan coughed lightly and comforted the young beast tamer, "It's not your fault. This little guy's growth experience is rather unique."

"Ouch!"

Sprite responded with a shout, her eyes shining brightly.

It's the little brother of Coca-Cola!
"Yuanbao! Yuanbao!"

After staring at the fallen Firefly for a while, Gao Xiaoye belatedly rushed over. He knelt down and hugged the injured Firefly tightly, his voice trembling with sobs: "Yuanbao, are you alright? Please don't die!"

Chen Yuan's lips twitched: "If you keep holding it like this, something might really happen to it."

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiaoye quickly released the Firefly Hound. He gradually regained his composure and kept recalling knowledge about pet battles in his mind.

Subsequently,

Gao Xiaoye took out a bottle of healing spray from her backpack, opened it skillfully, and sprayed it on the Firefly Dog's injured area.

Seeing that Gao Xiaoye regained her composure so quickly, Chen Yuan nodded silently, carefully choosing his words, and offered simple guidance:
"Your Firehound has a good foundation, and its Flame Strike is very fast. However, its attack route is too straightforward, making it easy to predict, and its ability to adapt to changing situations is relatively poor."

"These problems can be effectively improved by not engaging in too many battles."

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiaoye stared blankly at the Firefly in her arms. Only now did she have time to recall the battle scene just now, and a sense of loss enveloped her.

This was not a fierce battle with back and forth; his Firefly Hound was completely powerless to fight back.

But since the two pets seem to be of similar strength, why is there such a big difference?

He calmed himself down and carefully considered every word Chen Yuan said, finding them all to be profound. His eyes gradually lit up with a light: "Thank you, I think I understand!"

If he can improve these issues, he should be able to defeat the older brother in front of him!
Seeing that Gao Xiaoye had returned to normal, Chen Yuan nodded: "Are you a student of the Beast Taming Academy?"

Gao Xiaoye raised her head and looked at the young man directly in front of her. On his left shoulder was a strange pet that she had never seen before, which looked like a beautiful flower fairy.
On its right shoulder is a small, golden-red bird with calm eyes. It looks unremarkable and doesn't seem as powerful as the Firefly Hound.

He looked away, hugged the Firefly Dog, and replied, "I am a senior high school student at the Second Middle School."

He paused, then added, "Our school organized a field trip to Baofeng Mountain, but I got separated from my classmates."

As he spoke, he slowly lowered his head: "The teachers must be worried sick looking for me, sigh."

All the previous passion and fighting spirit had vanished. The boy with the tender face squatted on the ground, sighing repeatedly.

"It's no big deal." Chen Yuan reached out and pressed his shoulder, laughing. "I'll help you find it."

His gentle voice seemed to contain boundless energy, transforming into a warm breeze that swept away Gao Xiaoye's anxiety and sorrow.

“But let’s wait a minute, I still have a pet animal playing outside,” Chen Yuan said.

"Okay, okay." Gao Xiaoye nodded obediently.

The two found a place to sit down. The Winter Dog slowly approached the Firefly Dog, whose injuries were gradually recovering, and circled it several times before rubbing its cool nose against it.

Although the Firefly was a little afraid of the harsh winter dog that had easily defeated it, it was naturally lively and enthusiastic, and soon it joined Sprite in jumping around in the thick snow, chasing and playing in the footprints left by the latter.

Sprite flicked its tail, kicking up a cloud of snow, which made the tinderbox bark loudly.

The two little ones chased and played in the snow, leaving behind a trail of plum blossom-shaped footprints, adding a touch of life to the quiet snow-covered mountains.

As an adult, Chen Yuan inevitably began to inquire about Gao Xiaoye's studies, and sure enough, everyone eventually becomes the person they hated the most.

"My studies are going well. I'll report to Yunhua Beast Taming Academy when spring comes."

"More than a dozen of our students were admitted to Yunhua Beast Taming Academy this time, so the school specially organized us to come to the wild for training activities, in order to improve our strength as much as possible before the start of the semester."

At this point, Gao Xiaoye inevitably thought of something sad. She lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I never expected something like this to happen."

Chen Yuan was about to offer some words of comfort when Gao Xiaoye shook her head and said, "Actually, our school is pretty good, but the management is too strict. Besides the classrooms, there's only the training ground, and we can't bring our cell phones. In the senior year, we only get half a day off each week, so we can't get any news from the outside world."

Chen Yuan silently sympathized with the pitiful senior high school students, remembering that he had been through the same thing.

Gao Xiaoye seemed to have opened a floodgate, as if she wanted to pour out all the things she had been holding back for a long time: "Didn't we hold the Big Wind Cup a while ago?"

Chen Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"During the Dafeng Cup, leaders from other schools all said they would broadcast the competition live so that students could watch it together, but our school was the only one that prohibited watching," Gao Xiaoye said indignantly.

Chen Yuan looked puzzled: "Why is that? Watching this kind of competition should be beneficial to you, right?"

Gao Xiaoye first nodded in agreement, then sighed: "But the leaders think that the Dafeng Cup competition is too high-level, and watching such a competition is of no benefit to us, and may even make us aim too high."

"Instead of watching these high-level competitions, we should focus on training and studying diligently."

Chen Yuan nodded thoughtfully.

From an educational perspective, this statement does make sense.

Suddenly, Gao Xiaoye stared intently at Chen Yuan: "Brother, you're so amazing, you must have watched the match back then, right?"

He paused, then spoke excitedly, gesturing wildly: "I heard from friends at other schools that the champion of the first Dafeng Cup was named Chen Yuan, and he was a very powerful beast tamer."

“Every time I go home, my parents always nag me to learn more from him. It’s so annoying.”

"However, I heard that this champion is very, very strong, and is considered by everyone to be the number one beast tamer in Qin Province."

As Chen Yuan listened to the boy's rambling, filled with admiration, a subtle smile curved his lips.

He gently stroked the cool, icy fur of the Sprite bottle, his tone calm: "Yes, I've seen it. Not only have I seen it, I've also participated."

"Wow! You participated too?" Gao Xiaoye's eyes widened. He leaned forward, bombarding him with questions, "Have you ever met Chen Yuan in person? What does he look like? Does he look like a powerful expert at first glance? What kind of pet beast does he have?"

Chen Yuan couldn't help but chuckle and coughed lightly: "I've met him, um. My only impression of him is that he's quite handsome."

After saying this, Spark on her shoulder glanced sideways, and Morning and Evening Flower Fairy covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Handsome?" Gao Xiaoye was surprised by the answer, then nodded vigorously. "That's right, someone so strong must be handsome too."

"The school broadcast also mentioned that he is the pride of our Qin Province and will represent us at the Donghuang Conference."

"Oh, I really want to meet this champion, but I'd rather graduate as soon as possible and go to the academy."

"The teacher said that once I graduate, everything will be fine. There will be no teachers to supervise me anymore, and I can develop freely and do whatever I want."

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, but did not expose this classic lie from his middle school days.

The two chatted in a relaxed atmosphere. Just as Gao Xiaoye was talking incessantly about her college life, a clear and long bark of a dog pierced through the wind and snow, slowly rising from afar.

Gao Xiaoye subconsciously looked up and saw a light brown figure slowly appear. It seemed to be stepping on invisible steps, lightly leaping and bounding among the snow-covered tree canopy, and quickly approaching.

Its feet never touch the snow, leaving no trace. Its fluffy fur, like flowing clouds, flutters in the cold wind. A faint blue aura surrounds its body, stirring up fine snowflakes, and two black stripes of fur drift in the wind.

"So handsome!" Gao Xiaoye's eyes lit up as she stared intently at the cola that was approaching Chen Yuan.

It had never seen such a magnificent and handsome beast before; its arrival on the wind resembled that of a celestial dog descending from the sky.

Cola landed lightly beside Chen Yuan, affectionately nuzzling his leg with her head. Her azure eyes looked at Gao Xiaoye, whose face was full of amazement, and she tilted her head slightly.

This young man is quite good; I admire his eyes.

"Found it?" Chen Yuan asked.

"Aww!" Cola collected her thoughts and nodded repeatedly.

It discovered a powerful pet in the northern valley, which should be the strongest pet in Baofeng Mountain.

"Ow!"

Cola's eyes gleamed, eager to pounce.

Go, master!
Get started!
Chen Yuan nodded. He first glanced at the time, then looked at Gao Xiaoye, who was still in shock: "Let's go, I'll take you to find your teacher and classmates."

"Huh? Oh, okay." Gao Xiaoye seemed to wake from a dream and nodded repeatedly.

Chen Yuan looked at Kele: "Give him a ride."

Cola looked back and slowly approached with leisurely steps. When Gao Xiaoye saw the majestic dog approaching, she couldn't help but hold her breath and stare intently.

Judging by his knowledge, this is a very powerful pet, perhaps even capable of going toe-to-toe with the teachers' pets.

Cola leaned closer to Gao Xiaoye, his nostrils flaring as he sniffed the latter's scent, while simultaneously releasing invisible mental waves to probe his emotional fluctuations.

Hmm, there's no unpleasant smell, and it doesn't seem to have any ill intent towards me.

After some confirmation, Cola obediently lowered its body.

Gao Xiaoye was both excited and thrilled to see Cola so close to him. He hugged the Firepuppy tightly, rolled over and sat on Cola's warm and fluffy back, feeling as soft as if he were sitting on a cloud.

"Hold on tight," Chen Yuan reminded him.

"Ow~"

Cola emitted a light, low hum, and air surged beneath its four feet.

With its four legs treading on the wind, carrying Gao Xiaoye, whose heart was pounding with excitement, it soared into the air as if stepping on an invisible wind track, light and swift.

"Wow!!!" Gao Xiaoye sat on Cola's back, feeling the howling cold wind brushing against her cheeks, and looking at the snowfield getting farther and farther away, she couldn't help but let out an excited scream.

But then he suddenly remembered something, looked down at the ground, and shouted, "Brother, what about you?"

This majestic dog is carrying me. Doesn't this mean that this kind-hearted man has lost his mount and pet? He can't possibly rely on that little bird, can he?

But when he looked down, he saw the little bird spread its wings and fly high, a dazzling white light emanating from its body, followed by the appearance of a delicate and exquisite outline.

Spark unfolds its wings, which burst forth with golden flames, and its long tail trails light trails. The scorching heat emanating from its body instantly dispels the surrounding chill, melts the snow on the treetops, and steams up a large cloud of white mist.

Chen Yuan leaped and landed steadily on Huo Hua's broad back. His large, golden-red wings spread out behind him like a burning cloak.

"Let's go. Do you know roughly where you've split up?" Chen Yuan asked loudly as Spark approached Cola.

Gao Xiaoye stared intently at the sparks, but Chen Yuan's voice suddenly pulled him back to reality. He looked down at the ground, trying to find where the sparks had scattered.

After looking for a while, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper: "I...I can't seem to find the right place. They all look pretty much the same."

Chen Yuan was not surprised by this answer. He nodded and said, "It's alright, then let's see what happens to us."

"Cola."

"Ow?"

"We are searching for humans on Baofeng Mountain; there are at least ten of them."

"Ow!"

Cola responded loudly and suddenly leaped away with Gao Xiaoye on its back, its light brown fur fluttering wildly.

A cold wind howled as Gao Xiaoye stared at Kele's retreating figure, brushing aside the hair that touched her cheek. Her eyes flickered as a guess gradually formed in her mind.
