Chapter 512 Changes
North Cold City, below the giant border wall.

At the wide city gate, the beast tamers and hunters coming and going, as well as the garrison soldiers guarding the gate, stood straight, their eyes filled with curiosity as they looked ahead.

Where their gaze fell, a majestic dragon slowly descended from the sky.

"Next time, let's use the teleportation array..." Ye Mo murmured to himself as he flew down from the back of the dragon Isaac and looked at the curious and awe-inspiring gazes of the many beast tamers.

Upon returning this time, he had indeed forgotten that, given Isaac's size and rank, he was unable to fly directly into North Cold City; this was also a protective measure for the city.

Of course, if you are qualified, you can do that. For example, his grandfather, as the garrison commander of Beihan City, can move freely in Beihan City and summon spirit pets at will. Even if it is a super-large spirit pet, his grandfather only needs to report it afterward after summoning it in the city.

But clearly, as a student, he doesn't have the qualifications, even if he were the champion of the university competition.

To gain the qualification to summon large spirit pets within the city, one must either hold a high-ranking official position or possess sufficient strength to become a member of the Guardian Council.

He didn't have any plans for the former yet, after all, he was still young and didn't want to be tied down so early. But the latter, guarding the hall councilor, would be much easier; once he broke through to become a fifth-tier king-level beast tamer, obtaining the councilor status would be a piece of cake.

"Who is this? How come he's so young? There aren't any master-level beast tamers in the city like him."

"You don't know Ye Mo? He was the champion of last year's National Freshman Competition and University Grand Competition."

"Holy crap, why would he come here? Beihan City is such a small place, there's nothing here that could attract him, right?"

"You're from out of town, aren't you? The garrison commander of Beihan City is his grandfather. Let me tell you, you have no idea what happened back then..."

"..."

Some of the beast tamers and hunters passing by were already whispering among themselves, and from time to time, their eyes would reveal surprise and longing.

Ye Mo didn't think much of it. After landing, he immediately recalled Isaac into the contracted star, leaving only Bai Ling and Xing Li by his side.

As for Hanhan and Xiaoliu'er, he brought them back into the contracted star while they were still in the air, as it was not appropriate for them to stay outside at this time.

Taking a step forward, Ye Mo strode ahead, and the beast tamers and hunters on the way to the city gate seemed to be notified, and they all retreated to the sides, creating a wide road.

Seeing this, Ye Mo didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight into the city gate along the main road.

At the city gate, the garrison soldiers guarding the gate seemed a little nervous. The one who was checking Ye Mo's identity document even had to do it twice before he got it right.

A short while later, after his identity was confirmed, Ye Mo nodded slightly to them and then walked inside with his spirit pet. But just as he was about to enter the city gate, a middle-aged man dressed in the uniform of a garrison soldier walked over with a smile.

"You must be Ye Mo, the champion of last year's university competition? Hello, I am Liao Huaiyi, the commander of the garrison here."

"Hello, I'm Ye Mo, the one you mentioned. Is there something you need?" Ye Mo turned around and looked at him, replying curiously.

"It's nothing, sorry to bother you. I came down here just to see the style of a genius beast tamer. Meeting you today, I can confirm that you truly live up to your reputation." Liao Huaiyi shook his head and replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Ye Mo felt a surge of impatience, but he didn't show it on his face.

A short while later, after a brief chat, Ye Mo declined the other party's invitation to go to the city tower, then took his leave and headed into the city.

"I'm speechless," Ye Mo thought to himself, now that he was far away from the city gate. The commander of the garrison had been trying to curry favor with him, and even tried to take him to the city wall.

But he had absolutely no interest in any of that; for him, all he needed to do was improve his strength.

However, from this point of view, Ye Mo did indeed clearly feel the change in his identity. The Liao Huaiyi just now was the commander-in-chief of the garrison guarding the border wall. Even though his strength was only at the peak of the ordinary fourth rank, in terms of status, he was probably no weaker than some hunters at the fourth rank of the domain level in some hunting groups.

In the past, even if his grandfather was the garrison commander of Beihan City, the other party wouldn't have given him a second glance, since his status was only slightly lower than that of the garrison commander.

But today, the other party's actions were clearly ingratiating, something even his grandfather would never do.

"Strength is still more useful," Ye Mo sighed and said with emotion.

The reason the other party is behaving this way this time is simply because his potential is too astonishing; otherwise, why would he act this way? However, that's just potential. If his strength reaches the fifth rank or even higher, then Chief Liao's attitude would probably be quite different.

After thinking it over, Ye Mo reached out and rubbed Bai Ling's chin, preparing to head to the center of Beihan City.

Although the border wall is located within North Cold City, it is not close to the city center. Therefore, there are often buses that travel between the two places stopping near the wall.

However, Ye Mo did not plan to take a car back. Given his reputation in Beihan City, and considering his recent actions of landing on the giant dragon, he was afraid that taking a car would lead to the same situation as before.

So, in the end, he decided to fly back himself. Anyway, with Bai Ling around, the journey back wouldn't be too tiring.

After making his decision, under the watchful eyes of countless people, Ye Mo took off from the road and flew swiftly towards the city center along the main road.

…………

Beihan City.

As the New Year approaches, the entire city is filled with festive decorations, exuding a joyful and lively atmosphere.

The city's buildings seemed to have been given a new color. Whether it was the tall buildings on both sides of the main road, the doors of shopping malls, or even the street lampposts, everything turned red at this moment, full of the charm of the New Year.

Although the people coming and going were still as busy as usual, most of them had happy smiles on their faces. Many of the spirit pets that people brought with them also felt this atmosphere and became lively and excited.

"I didn't really feel like the New Year was approaching before, but after walking around like this, I'm starting to get a feel for it," Ye Mo remarked, looking at his surroundings.

Xingli hissed in response from his shoulder, while Bailing on his other shoulder kept her gaze fixed straight ahead, where a vendor was grilling sausages. "Your three sausages are ready. Be careful, they're hot," the middle-aged sausage vendor said with a friendly smile as he packed up the three sausages and handed them to Ye Mo.

"Okay, thank you, boss. I just paid." Ye Mo took the sausage, nodded in reply, and then turned and left.

As he walked down the street, he opened the bag containing the grilled sausages, took them out, and prepared to share them.

After examination with the detection function, there was nothing wrong with these sausages; they were just ordinary meat sausages, at most containing a little spiritual energy within the meat. However, this was perfectly normal in the extraordinary world.

"Here, Xiaobai, this is your sausage. Hold on tight, don't drop it." Ye Mo first took out a steaming hot sausage and handed it to Bai on his left shoulder.

Bai Ling didn't stand on ceremony. After swallowing, she picked it up in one bite, her eyes filled with satisfaction.

Seeing this, Ye Mo smiled helplessly. Clearly, this food was far inferior to the food he specially made, both in terms of effect and taste, but Bai Ling was still full of enthusiasm for other foods.

"Xingli, would you like one?" Ye Mo took out another grilled sausage and asked Xingli on the other side.

Xingli blinked, and after sensing with her mental power for a while, she finally shook her head. She wasn't interested in this kind of food that had almost no spiritual power.

"Alright, then I won't be polite." Ye Mo opened his mouth, took a bite of the grilled sausage, and started eating. He ate and chatted as he walked home.

…………

Under the bright sunshine, around noon, Ye Mo finally brought Bai Ling and the others back to the giant bear breeding base.

His return was met with great joy by the staff at the breeding base, as most of the people working there today were the same group from the original breeding base in Linghu District.

Therefore, they are very familiar with Ye Mo. Some of the senior employees have even witnessed Ye Mo's life from childhood to the present.

Ye Mo's reputation is now so great. He is the champion of the academy competition and the strongest genius beast tamer of the new generation. With all these titles, how could the employees not be curious?

Some of the new employees seemed quite nervous, but those who could be considered Ye Mo's elders were different. After the initial awkwardness dissipated, the conversation became more and more casual.

Even with his strength comparable to a fifth-tier cultivator, Ye Mo couldn't handle this situation and could only escape quickly by saying he had urgent business to attend to.

There's nothing I can do. We haven't even said much yet, and they've already started talking about his future marriage and having children. If we keep going like this, they'll probably start introducing his niece and stuff.

Even if it was a joke, Ye Mo would never dare to linger.

A while later, Ye Mo, who had left in a hurry, finally entered the core area of ​​the breeding base, where places like his daily residence and the forging base were located.

The core area is the only place in the breeding base without staff. Apart from the bear, the only people who can come here are him and his grandfather.

"Hanhan, let's go to the forging base first." After Ye Mo entered the core area of ​​the breeding base, he released all the spirit pets, including Hanhan and the others.

"As for the rest of you, those who want to come with me to the forging base can come along, while others can go do other things on their own. Just remember to come back tonight."

Under Ye Mo's gaze, Bai Ling, Xiao Liu'er, and Xing Li, among the spirit pets, chose to go to the forging base with Ye Mo. For them, it didn't matter where they went, so it was definitely better to stay by their master Ye Mo's side.

Especially Xingli and Xiaoliu'er. The latter longed to spend more time by Ye Mo's side, while the former, because they had not yet formed a contract, Xingli also hoped to stay by Ye Mo's side for a longer time so that they could become more familiar with each other.

As for Isaac and Bai You, just as Ye Mo expected, they both chose not to go to the forging base.

Isaac's strength is now significantly weaker than Hanhan's, and he's focusing all his energy on honing his skills and improving his power, leaving him no time to rest. Bai You, on the other hand, prefers quiet places because of her research into formations, and the forging base is clearly not that kind of place.

And so, Ye Mo and his spirit pets split into three groups, each heading to their respective destinations.

And so, after passing through the dense forest and a large array, Ye Mo finally arrived at the forging base.

Just as he stepped into the base shrouded in the array, the clanging sound of hammering metal came from ahead, and every now and then several beams of spiritual light surged out, which were quite conspicuous.

"Silly boy, you go and teach them forging skills. I'll take Xiaobai and the others to that high platform over there. Just call me if you need anything."

When they arrived at the forging base, only Hanhan was there to cultivate; the others, including Ye Mo himself, were there to rest and play. Therefore, once inside, they naturally had to split up.

"Awoo." Hanhan looked at Ye Mo, nodded slightly, and then strode forward.

Ye Mo watched the simple-minded figure from behind and thought to himself.

With Hanhan's current level as a blacksmith, he's only a little short of reaching the fifth rank. This time, he's back to teach these bears forging skills, which will likely bring significant improvements to many of them.

However, this is all thanks to the fact that the Foolish Blacksmith's secondary profession is a master of teaching; otherwise, even if the Foolish Blacksmith's level is very high, it would be difficult for him to perform so well in teaching.

Thinking of this, Ye Mo shook his head and smiled to himself. Right now, Hanhan is only a fourth-tier blacksmith; once he breaks through to become a fifth-tier blacksmith, his ability to teach blacksmithing techniques will likely become even stronger.

Given the state of the forging base, it's possible that several fourth-tier master-level blacksmiths will emerge from among the thousands of bear blacksmiths at that time.

In that case, the extraordinary equipment company that Grandpa founded would be different. After all, the fourth-tier extraordinary equipment made by a fourth-tier master blacksmith can be considered to have entered the ranks of high-end equipment in the current extraordinary equipment market of Yanhuang. Even the lowest grade has entered the ranks.

In this way, Grandpa's extraordinary equipment company will be able to take on more orders, and its reputation will not be limited to Beizhou.

Thinking of this, Ye Mo's lips curled into a slight smile, a hint of joy radiating from his eyes. The better the Extraordinary Equipment Company thrived, the happier his grandfather would be, and that was exactly what he wanted.

Of course, besides his grandfather's side, the stronger the forging base becomes, the better his pioneering merchant guild will develop, and the various forces under his command will also be able to improve their strength by relying on equipment, thereby earning more profits.
