Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 356 Consultant Chen is a model we should all learn from.
For Chen Yuan, compared to the many crises he had encountered before, this incident was not serious and could even be considered easy to resolve.

Since the core problem lies with the Greyfeather Falcon, let this seemingly honest but actually cunning fellow resolve the misunderstanding with the Stonearm Mandrills.

If it's a misunderstanding, it can be resolved properly.

So Chen Yuan temporarily took over command and sent Cola and the Greyfeather Falcon to the Stonearm Mountain Demons' habitat to make contact and resolve the misunderstanding.

If neither side is willing to resolve the misunderstanding or reason with each other, then Cola also knows a little bit about fighting.

Fortunately, there was no deep-seated hatred between the two sides. After friendly mediation by Cola, the Stonearm Mandrills and the Grayfeather Falcon finally resolved the misunderstanding that had lasted for more than two months and buried the hatchet.

As a result, the Stonearm Mountain Demons stopped targeting the Windwing Geese, who were extremely similar to the Grayfeather Falcon, and the conflict between the two pet beast groups came to an end.

Baofeng Mountain returned to calm, with only the howling cold wind continuing to blow.

Although this incident has ended, the handling of the Greyfeather Falcon incident continues.

Chen Yuan sternly criticized the Grayfeather Falcon for stealing food from the Beastmasters and offered two options:

First, this behavior shall cease from now on, and attacks on Beastmasters shall be prohibited.

Second, go to the Baokun City breeding base, and in the dark room, learn the true meaning of harmonious coexistence between humans and pets, and from then on, turn over a new leaf.

"唳"

Grayfeather Falcon looked at Chen Yuan's serious face, then at Spark standing on the latter's shoulder, and inexplicably recalled the terrifying battle scene from before, causing his body to tremble uncontrollably.

It slowly lowered its head, tightly closed its broad wings, and decisively chose the first one.

"Very well, I'll let you off this time." Seeing Grayfeather Falcon's choice, Chen Yuan's satisfied expression vanished in an instant. He then put on a stern face and deliberately threatened, "But if I find out you're only pretending to correct your mistakes, then..."

"Ow!"

Cola's eyes sharpened, and it suddenly slammed its claws into the ground, its cry filled with intimidation.

Then we'll pluck your fur and tear down your house!
"唳"

Overwhelmed by the oppressive feeling of the cola, the proud grey-feathered falcon trembled, its eyes quivered, and its cries were tinged with sobs.

It was not a pleasant day for the Greyfeather Falcon.

The Grayfeather Falcon's reaction was observed by everyone present, but they had no time to lament the Grayfeather Falcon's transformation into a docile little bird by Consultant Chen; they all surged forward.

"Consultant Chen! I'm a fan of yours!"

"Consultant Chen, can I take a photo with you?"

In an instant, the once tranquil Canglan Lake was suddenly turbulent, and a cacophony of noise filled the air.

Looking at the teachers and students who were tightly surrounding him, Chen Yuan smiled helplessly: "Don't push, don't push, one at a time."

In this freezing valley, on this snowy night, a small fan meeting was held at the sparsely populated Canglan Lake.

Gao Xiaoye did not participate; he stood at a distance, quietly watching the teachers and students surround Consultant Chen.

He lowered his head, his gaze falling on the watch on his left wrist, and a smile gradually spread across his lips.

No matter how many group photos you take, none of them are as meaningful as the one inside the watch.

Just like the biting wind at this moment, no matter how strong or fierce it is, it is far less than the bone-chilling feeling you feel when riding on the Wind-Riding Dog and soaring through the sky.

A single group photo is not unusual, but he once looked down at the vast land from the same time, at the same height, and from the same angle as Consultant Chen.

The shock at that time is beyond anyone's comprehension.

The two beast tamers, with their profound presence, didn't push forward to ask for autographs or photos. They stood silently like two statues, their eyes gazing at Chen Yuan across the vast snowy night.

I don’t know how long it took,
Suddenly, a beast tamer named Zhang Ye took out his phone, casually snapped a photo of Chen Yuan surrounded by the crowd, glanced at it briefly, and put the phone back in his pocket.

Old Liu, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up: "Remember to send it to the group."

Zhang Ye nodded, then narrowed his eyes and stared at the three pet beasts beside Chen Yuan. He lowered his voice and said, "Those guys in the Seventh Squad are always bragging about having carried out missions with Consultant Chen and had brief contact with him. Now it's finally our turn."

Old Liu nodded silently: "They were lucky. Their area of ​​responsibility happened to be near Xuanhe Town, so they could run into Consultant Chen from time to time."

After saying this, Old Liu suddenly looked around cautiously and lowered his voice to the lowest level: "And I heard that Captain Nie Li of the Seventh Squad is interested in Consultant Chen."

"Shh," Zhang Ye immediately interrupted, "be careful what you say."

Old Liu chuckled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject: "It's a pity that only the two of us took on the mission this time; the captain and the others weren't so lucky."

About a week ago, the local Beastmaster Association approached their fifth squad for help. The Second Intermediate School was going to conduct a wilderness training activity and needed two of them to secretly protect them.

Although this task is relatively low-risk, the pay is also very low, and it requires venturing into a cold, frigid environment to protect a group of high school students who lack wilderness survival experience.

Just thinking about it makes me realize it's a tough job.

However, after a fair and just draw, Zhang Ye and Lao Liu became the unlucky ones who were pitied by their teammates.

"They certainly didn't expect that this time we would not only witness the battle between the two major pet beast clans, but also... encounter Advisor Chen." Old Liu gazed at Chen Yuan from afar, his tone full of emotion.

Zhang Ye stroked his chin, his eyes gleaming slightly: "Old Liu, why do you think this gray-feathered falcon is so afraid of Consultant Chen?"

Old Liu shrugged, his tone laced with amusement: "What else could it be? He must have gotten a good beating from Consultant Chen."

"You know these wild beasts; only the iron fist of justice can make them fear."

Zhang Ye nodded slightly, then nudged Lao Liu's shoulder with his arm and said, "How about we become star-struck fans for once?"

Old Liu shoved Zhang Ye's arm away and said seriously, "This is not called idol worship. This is clearly about getting close to and following outstanding young role models who have been featured in national special reports."

Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.

After a long time,

Chen Yuan poked his stiff cheek with his hand, shook his arms, and let out a long breath.

This small fan meeting has finally come to an end.

"Ow"

Not only Chen Yuan, but even Cola was slumped on the ground, looking exhausted, with its head down, tongue lolling out, and tail wagging weakly.

Like Chen Yuan, Kele was also pestered by teachers and students to take photos with them.

Cola was initially very enthusiastic and satisfied with the teachers' and students' choice, and she couldn't hide the smugness on her face.

Some students hugged its neck, some grabbed its tail, and some even tried to climb onto its back.

"Ow!"

Even someone as powerful as Cola, who is extremely intimidating in front of a group of wild pets, was helpless against these lively students and had no choice but to agree to their requests.

But as time went on, the energetic and vigorous students continued to pester it, and even Cola, who was at the peak of the third tier, gradually felt tired.

The sparks, however, had an intimidating quality that kept strangers at bay; the students only dared to observe from a distance and did not approach to take pictures.

In addition, the Morning and Evening Fairy also enjoyed the same enthusiastic treatment as Cola.

No, thanks to its pretty and delicate appearance, the little guy is even more popular than Coca-Cola. The little girls stare at it intently, and the little boys look on with infatuation.

It seemed everyone wanted to take advantage of Consultant Chen's inattention and escape with a sack of sachets from Morning and Evening Flower Fairy.

But they were facing the Dawn and Dusk Flower Fairy in her nighttime form. The little one maintained a cold and indifferent demeanor throughout, which made the students afraid to approach and only dare to take pictures from a distance.

"Consultant Chen, I'm so sorry to bother you."

As the teachers and students gathered to admire the group photo, Teacher Wang strode up to Chen Yuan, her expression respectful and sincere: "The children all like you and admire you, so they can't contain their joy."

Chen Yuan smiled slightly: "It's nothing, it's my honor to be liked by them so much."

"You are too modest." Teacher Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then looked up at Chen Yuan, who was smiling, and said, "Advisor Chen, I wish you great success in the upcoming Donghuang Conference."

He paused, looked at the teachers and students who were still in a state of ecstasy, and said, "We won't disturb you any longer, we'll be leaving now."

Chen Yuan glanced at the sky; night had fallen, and glistening snowflakes were piercing the horizon—it was already late at night.

He thought for a moment and said, "Don't bother with all that, just rest here." Then, he pointed to the large open space in front of him and said, "We can set up camp here, so let's not let the students brave the cold weather to return to the camp. If they don't get enough rest, the training tomorrow will be much less effective."

Upon hearing this, Teacher Wang's face lit up with joy, and she quickly nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll have them set up camp right away."

After a while,
Upon learning that they would be able to spend the night with Consultant Chen, the teachers and students were excited and overjoyed, prompting them to quickly set up their tents.

Chen Yuan quietly observed the students' every move, noticing their clumsy operations and the bumpy teamwork. The teachers occasionally offered guidance but did not intervene.

Teacher Wang stood beside Chen Yuan and slowly spoke: "The current educational philosophy is different from the past. All teaching tasks must serve the Beast Tamers, and the starting point for everything is to cultivate Beast Tamers as excellent as you."

Chen Yuan smiled and said nothing.

"They need to learn not only basic knowledge about pets and the skills of beast tamers, but also survival skills in the wild in order to adapt to the increasingly complex social environment."

"In the past, students only needed to focus on the theoretical knowledge in textbooks."

"But textbooks alone cannot cultivate excellent beast tamers, so we try to hone students through field training so that they can grow faster and become qualified beast tamers more quickly."

Chen Yuan calmly said, "You are right."

While in Xuanhe Town, Chen Yuan had seen more than a few rash beast tamers venturing into the Qinling Mountains, only to encounter danger due to their lack of extensive wilderness survival experience.

Hearing Chen Yuan's approval of their educational philosophy, Teacher Wang was secretly overjoyed, but he tried his best to keep his facial expression calm and continued, "After today's events, I believe they will always maintain a sense of awe for the wild."

He paused, his eyes deep as he gazed at the distant sky: "After all, unexpected events can always happen in the wild."

Chen Yuan nodded: "Yes."

After Gao Xiaoye and his classmates set up their tents, they sat down to rest, panting heavily. Zhang Qiang, who was standing next to them, suddenly spoke up: "Old Gao, Old Li, I suddenly feel that the wilderness training is not as difficult or dangerous as I imagined. It's actually quite easy."

Gao Xiaoye was taken aback and asked, "Where did it feel easier?"

Zhang Qiang leaned against the moisture-proof mat, his hands clasped behind his head. He looked up and saw a sky full of stars suddenly appear in his view. He smelled the fresh air and felt the cold wind blowing. His voice gradually rose: "The teachers used to say how dangerous the wild was, how cruel these wild animals were, but now I see..."

At this point, he glanced at the gray-feathered falcon, which resembled a docile little bird, and smiled, "That's not the case."

“After we entered the mountains, the wild animals we encountered kept their distance. Occasionally, a bold one would appear, but we would drive it away. The only danger and accident on the way was that you got lost, Lao Gao.”

Gao Xiaoye's lips twitched.

Zhang Qiang's lips curled up slightly, and he said in a flippant tone: "I finally encountered the conflict between the Stone Arm Mountain Demon and the Wind Feather Goose tonight. I thought we would have a thrilling battle, but it was resolved just like that."

He looked at the two people beside him and spread his hands: "Isn't this easy enough?"

Li Mei fell silent for a moment, but Gao Xiaoye shook her head and completely denied it: "No, all your ideas are wrong."

"Because we are traveling as a group, ordinary wild animals would naturally run away when they see so many people and so many animals."

"Even if we repel wild pets, it's not the achievement of one person, but the result of the entire team."

"If you go into the mountains alone, it will definitely not be so easy. The shadowy figures hidden in the woods and the occasional cries will frighten you."

Zhang Qiang opened his mouth, but couldn't think of any rebuttal for a long time.

Gao Xiaoye continued, "The purpose of this wilderness training is to let us experience the atmosphere of the wild and practice wilderness survival skills in practice, turning theory into practice, so we will not encounter any danger."

"As for this gray-feathered falcon..."

Gao Xiaoye suddenly glanced at her friend and said irritably, "If Consultant Chen hadn't happened to be here, I reckon resolving this matter wouldn't have been so easy."

Looking at the Grey Feather Falcon, which was as humble as a puppy in front of Consultant Chen, Zhang Qiang fell into deep silence.

But the teenagers' minds were always lively and quick-thinking, and they soon skipped over this topic and began to discuss how long it took Consultant Chen to defeat the Gray Feather Falcon.

Some say they fought a hard battle to win, others say they were easily defeated in less than three minutes, and still others say that Chen's fervent fans said it was a one-hit kill.

Each person held their own opinion and had their own reasoning, resulting in a prolonged stalemate.

Finally, Zhang Qiang turned to Gao Xiaoye and said, "Old Gao, you have the best relationship with Consultant Chen, why don't you go and ask him about this?"

"Yeah, Xiao Ye should go ask."

"Support it, let's satisfy our curiosity."

The young man couldn't bear the expectant gazes of a group of people. He gritted his teeth and bravely walked towards Chen Yuan.

"Consultant Chen, we'd like to know how you defeated the Grayfeather Falcon? How long did it take?"

At this moment, Gao Xiaoye appeared unusually reserved in front of Consultant Chen, his head lowered and his hands fidgeting with the hem of his clothes.

A group of students listened intently, eagerly awaiting Consultant Chen's answer.

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, then reached out and patted Gao Xiaoye's shoulder, saying loudly, "When you can defeat the Gray Feather Falcon, go and ask it yourself."

Gao Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at the Grey Feather Falcon, who looked humble in front of Consultant Chen but arrogant and domineering like the overlord of the sky when facing her, and remained silent.

A moment later, he clenched his fists tightly, his eyes flashing with high spirits: "Yes, Consultant Chen, I will do my best!"

The night is dark and everything is silent.

The gray-feathered falcon stood silently by the lake, gazing at the shimmering moonlight on the water for a long time, its expression complex.

He didn't know how much time had passed when he turned his head and looked at the open space in front of Canglan Lake. Tents shrouded in the night came into view, and a group of sleeping pets were around them.

The Greyfeather Falcon never expected so many humans to appear on its territory, and it was helpless, forced to watch them stay for the time being.

This undermines the dignity of the sky's overlord.

"Hello, can I ask you a question?" Suddenly, a clear male voice rang out from behind.

The gray-feathered falcon looked back and saw three humans peeking out of the tent, their eyes gleaming with curiosity.

"Wow!"

The gray-feathered falcon glared at them fiercely, then flapped its wings, preparing to fly away from the area.

It couldn't be bothered to have any contact with any human other than Chen Yuan.

But the three of them were clearly not intimidated by him. Gao Xiaoye, who was in the lead, threw over a piece of pet food and continued, "We want to know how your battle with the Wind-Riding Hound went? How long did it take you to be defeated?"

Hearing this, the Greyfeather Falcon's anger soared, but the aroma of the pet's food wafted over, making it secretly swallow and lower its head.

Accepting human charity and answering human questions would certainly damage its domineering dignity, but it was hungry.

"唳"

The gray-feathered falcon lowered its head and swallowed its pet food at a speed beyond human perception, then glanced sideways at the three of them: "Screech."

It was an earth-shattering battle; it fought the Wind-Riding Hound for three hundred rounds.
The three men listened intently, their eyes gleaming.

"Ow"

Just then, a dog's bark boomed in his ears like a thunderclap from a clear sky. The gray-feathered falcon's expression froze for a moment, then he changed his tune.

That battle was very simple.

It fought with all its might, but the Wind-Riding Hound finished the battle with a casual remark.

"Ow"

The barking gradually faded away in the cold wind, and the gray-feathered falcon breathed a long sigh of relief.

Upon hearing the description from the Grey Feather Falcon, Gao Xiaoye and the other two looked at each other, bewildered.

I don’t know how long it took,
Zhang Qiang's voice suddenly broke the silence of the night: "Old Gao, you're right. Without Consultant Chen, this incident would have been really difficult to resolve."

Immediately, he clenched his fists, his fighting spirit soaring: "I've made up my mind, from now on, Consultant Chen will be my idol, I will learn from him, and first become the number one in Yunhua Beast Taming Academy!"

Li Mei said calmly, "Just a friendly reminder, the current number one at Yunhua Beast Taming Academy is Zhuang Jianbai, who still maintains a perfect record of never losing a battle against Consultant Chen."

Zhang Qiang: "."
