Chapter 529 Troll
February 27, 2120, at Shanghai Airport.

Because of the time of day, the entire airport was lit up, making it as bright as day.

After getting off the plane, Ye Mo walked straight out of the airport.

This time, he still brought Bai Ling and Xing Li with him as his spirit pets. Although he really wanted to bring Isaac along, since a giant dragon would be both impressive and convenient for traveling, unfortunately, large spirit pets cannot be summoned without a license in Shanghai.

Furthermore, the abilities of certain spirit pets are not permitted to be used within the city.

Therefore, he could only bring Bai Ling and Xing Li with him.

As soon as Ye Mo stepped out of the airport terminal, before he had gone far, he saw a familiar figure waving at him.

"Master, why did you come here?" Ye Mo asked curiously, quickening his pace as he walked over.

The visitor was none other than Ye Mo's master, Chu Dehou, a beast tamer with the title of King, and also the vice principal of the Shanghai Principal.

Despite his age, Chu Dehou still looked robust, with the muscles on his arms clearly visible under his underwear. "I happened to have some free time, so I came straight here to pick you up."

Seeing his driver's smiling face, Ye Mo smiled back. Then, he raised an eyebrow and said, "Driver, it's good that you're here. It saves me money on a taxi. I've really made a profit."

Upon hearing this, Chu Dehou burst into laughter, "You are a real rich man, even I am afraid I can't compare to you, why would you care about that little bit of money?"

Over the past few months, Ye Mo had become increasingly aware of his disciple's wealth. Since returning from the other world, Ye Mo had likely earned billions just from selling various resources and breakthrough potions.

Then, nearly a billion was spent on purchasing resources for the cultivation of spirit pets. Later, six billion was spent at the Dragon Palace to purchase the essence blood of the Dragon Lord. The speed at which money was spent would leave even a sixth-level beast tamer speechless.

Although the six billion for purchasing the Dragon Lord's essence blood was only an IOU and the money hasn't been paid yet, judging from his disciple's demeanor, he probably doesn't think repaying the six billion is that difficult.

Ye Mo smiled slightly at this and changed the subject, saying, "Master, I heard you went to Zhongzhou some time ago. How did it go?"

He was naturally asking about the interdimensional war. There were only two days left until March, and he would soon have to report to the Central Plains Imperial War Hall. Therefore, he was very curious about the specifics of the interdimensional war.

Although he learned quite a bit back then, the plan for the interdimensional war had only just been finalized at that time, so he didn't know more details and didn't have time to go to Zhongzhou to find out.

Now, my master, who will also be participating in the interdimensional war, is right here. If I don't ask him now, when will I ever get the chance?

“You’re a participant too, so telling you isn’t a problem. But this is clearly not the place to talk about these things. Come back with me first,” Chu Dehou nodded and said seriously.

The next moment, with a gentle wave of his right hand, the star map unfolded, and the fifth-tier spirit pet, the Silver Scale Pegasus, was summoned.

"You called me out again? I was almost asleep." After the Silver-Scaled Pegasus appeared, it took a few light steps with its agile body, then yawned and complained.

But his unwilling expression only lasted a moment, because he had already seen Ye Mo's figure, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"Huh? Ye Mo! You're actually back! I've missed you so much."

Recalling the food Ye Mo had prepared for him, Silver Scale Pegasus unconsciously drooled.

After quickly swallowing his saliva, the excited Silver Scale Pegasus seemed not to see its Master at all, and went straight to Ye Mo's side, circling around him and talking non-stop.

"How long are you staying this time? Why don't you stay longer? Compared to your hometown of Beihan City, Shanghai is obviously better for both cultivation and other aspects."

"By the way, do you still need sparring partners? I remember your spirit pets are almost at the peak of the fourth rank, right? I'm very strong, and with my help, I can definitely unleash the potential of your spirit pets."

"And as your senior brother, I'll be your sparring partner for free. At most, I'll just have meals with you guys."

"........."

Although it was night, there were still quite a few people coming and going at the airport. Yin Lin Tianma's incessant talking attracted a lot of curious and surprised glances.

It's important to understand that even in Yanhuang, a country of extraordinary individuals, there are hardly any ordinary people who can afford to travel by plane. However, even so, it's still very rare for these people to encounter a spirit pet that can speak.

The Silver-Scaled Pegasus, in particular, with its strikingly unusual appearance, aroused curiosity and caution among passersby.

Although a talking spirit pet does not necessarily mean it is very strong, the sheer size of the Silver-Scaled Pegasus is enough to inspire awe in many people.

After all, within Shanghai, the Silver Pegasus is the type of creature whose size is not allowed to be summoned, yet it was summoned anyway, and in a highly guarded place like the airport.

This undoubtedly proves one thing: both the Silver Scale Pegasus and its master are powerful beast tamers.

"Alright, open the portal, let's go back first." After seeing the Silver-Scaled Pegasus's performance, Chu Dehou shook his head helplessly and waved his hand.

Upon hearing this, Ye Mo smiled and nodded to the Silver-Scaled Pegasus, saying, "Brother Pegasus, it's been a long time. If there's anything, let's go back and talk about it first."

Upon hearing Master and Ye Mo's words, Silver Scale Pegasus also shut its mouth, nodded slightly, and gently stomped its front paws into the void.

Suddenly, a silver light shone from his hooves, followed by a white portal that appeared – a teleportation gate.

Seeing this, Chu Dehou nodded and smiled at Ye Mo, then stepped inside first, followed closely by Ye Mo. After the last Silver Scaled Heavenly Horse entered, the teleportation portal vanished into the void.

Among the crowd of people who were either surprised or curious, someone finally recognized Ye Mo and his group and exclaimed in surprise.

"I remember now, that person was Ye Mo, the monstrous genius beast tamer from last year's academy competition. If I hadn't seen the white cat on his shoulder, I probably wouldn't have remembered him." "So it was him! Holy crap, I was wondering why he looked so familiar. Who was that other person? That spirit pet horse was amazing! It seemed to have some kind of spatial ability."

"If it really is Ye Mo, then the other person is probably a big shot from the Shanghai University, but I don't know who it is."

"I never thought I would actually meet Ye Mo. He is the top genius in our Magic City. I'm afraid no one in the entire younger generation of Yanhuang can compare to him."

As the discussion grew lively, a young mother walking out of the airport couldn't help but say to the child in her arms:

"Little Orange, did you see that older brother just now? Keep up the good work in the future. Mom doesn't expect you to be as good as him. I'll be satisfied if you have even a tenth of his talent."

Upon hearing the mother's words, some passersby chuckled softly, some shook their heads, and others secretly grumbled in their hearts.

It's truly astonishing how she dared to say that. That person was Ye Mo, already considered one of the top ten genius beast tamers in the entire Yanhuang over the past century. If someone had even a tenth of his talent, what level would they be at? They'd probably be able to at least squeeze into the top tier of a prestigious academy.

…………

The third floor of the administration building of the Beast Taming Academy, a prestigious university in Shanghai.

Inside the vice principal's office, as the portal opened, Ye Mo, accompanied by his spirit pet, along with Chu Dehou and the Silver-Scaled Pegasus, emerged from the doorway.

Chu Dehou skillfully turned on the lights, drew back the curtains, took out a tea set from the contract space and placed it on the coffee table next to the French windows. He then gestured to Ye Mo, indicating that he should sit down.

The silver-scaled celestial horse beside him couldn't help but want to say something, but Chu Dehou's gaze quickly turned over, causing him to freeze abruptly and dare not utter a word.

There was no other way; the reason he missed Ye Mo so much was because the food he had been eating these past few days was simply unpalatable. The reason for this was that his master was preparing to nurture him, so he had provided a lot of rare resources to help him cultivate. In other words, the food he had been forced to eat these days was not something that any living being could taste.

If he were to go against his master's wishes now, he would probably have to endure eating those indescribable things for a while longer.

After the mental storm subsided, the Silver-Scaled Pegasus stood tall and gently walked to the side of the coffee table, remaining motionless like a decorative object.

"Master." Ye Mo was also curious about the appearance of the Silver-Scaled Pegasus, after all, the Pegasus Brother he knew before was not so easy to talk to. However, these things were not important for the time being, the focus should be on his master.

The day of the interdimensional war is drawing ever closer. Even if he has pushed his spirit pets to their limits during this time, how could he possibly remain indifferent to an opponent with legendary power?

"Some time ago, I was invited by Palace Master Li Zhongguang to attend a meeting to discuss plans related to the interdimensional war. Of course, the details of the plan are kept secret, and I can't tell you about them, but there are some things I can tell you."

"Although you should also receive detailed information about the interdimensional war after we all go to Zhongzhou, it's still better if I tell you the story than if it's just information."

Hearing his master's words, Ye Mo nodded slightly. Given his status and the tasks he needed to undertake, he would certainly receive detailed intelligence upon returning to Zhongzhou. However, that intelligence would definitely differ from his master's summary.

After all, his master was a veteran King-level Beast Tamer who had participated in major events like interdimensional wars more than once, so he would definitely know more about these things than he did.

He's definitely better at identifying what's important and what needs attention than he is.

"Well, you should know about our opponent in this interdimensional war, right?" Chu Dehou said, taking a sip of tea after Ye Mo poured it, his gaze deep and thoughtful.

"Yes, I know." Ye Mo nodded slightly and said seriously, "It's a plane named after the trolls."

He had obtained information about his opponents in the interdimensional war through Li Zhongguang, the master of the Imperial War Hall.

Trolls are the strongest beings in that plane, but they are somewhat different from the trolls in the plane where the Western Continent, also known as the Light Spirit Continent, is located. The trolls there are more powerful and more savage.

Compared to the trolls in the Light Spirit Continent, who are classified as inferior monsters, the trolls in the Troll Plane are like a new race. They are incredibly powerful, numerous, and have diverse abilities. The only thing they have in common is that most of them are enormous in size.

“That’s right, the target of this attack is the Troll Plane, which is a small plane, but the opponent is quite powerful.” Chu Dehou nodded and said with a solemn expression.

"The permanent spatial passage connecting the troll plane and us is in the Central Continent. That passage appeared about twenty years ago, and the trolls from another world were the first to discover it."

"Perhaps due to their high confidence in their own strength, or perhaps due to other factors, the otherworldly troll race sent a large number of its people to invade, leaving nothing but desolation in their wake."

"The Earthshaking Bull Clan, which joined our Yanhuang Alliance, was wiped out by less than 10% because their home was too close to that dimensional passage. Even the Morning Sun Base City, which is only a second-level base city not far from there, suffered a great disaster and was almost destroyed."

"Fortunately, thanks to the notification issued by the survivors of the Earthshaking Bull Clan, Morning Sun Base City was not caught off guard. Although Morning Sun Base City suffered heavy casualties, it was not completely wiped out and managed to hold out until reinforcements arrived."

At this point, a cold glint appeared in Chu Dehou's eyes. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Of course, we can't just let this matter pass by like this."

"But at that time, because we had many external enemies and internal interference from the Ascended Church, plus the trolls in the Troll Plane were indeed quite powerful, it was always difficult to gather enough strength to deal with them."

"Even now, if it weren't for the efforts of Palace Master Li Zhongguang, we would most likely still choose to suppress the Troll Plane."

"Why? Is the troll plane really that hard to fight?" Ye Mo's eyes showed confusion. Hearing his master's words, he naturally wished that the troll race would be wiped out as soon as possible.

"Hmm." Chu Dehou nodded slightly, his tone solemn. "I also specifically looked into the causes and consequences of the Troll Plane incident. The reason for this is that launching an attack on the Troll Plane would be extremely difficult."

"Unlike some other discovered planes, the rulers of the Troll Plane are the Troll race, without exception. Even though the Troll race is divided into various tribes, they remain very united despite having external enemies, thanks to the existence of the Troll High Priest."

"Under these circumstances, it is extremely difficult for us, who previously could not spare many combat forces, to annihilate that group of trolls when we can only access them through legendary dimensional portals."

"Moreover, we are already at a disadvantage when fighting in the other plane, especially since the other side can rely on the power of the plane's will."
