Chapter 147 Fighting the Tiger This Morning
That evening, after Lu Fei returned, the two discussed it.

I still think it's better to hire a cleaning lady and a cook.

In this way, both of them can use their free time to do more meaningful things.

Once the decision was made, Xu Feng immediately went to the property management department of the residential community to post a recruitment notice.

In the afternoon, four candidates came to apply for the job.

In the end, Hsu Feng chose an old acquaintance.

Aunt Huang.

That's right, it's Aunt Huang, my former upstairs neighbor in the apartment building.

Seeing that the homeowner was an acquaintance, Aunt Huang was very happy.

Xu Feng didn't hesitate any longer and immediately made his decision.

Huang Ma was only responsible for providing lunch and dinner every day, and cleaning the house three times a week. Xu Feng only needed to pay 8000 per month.

With household chores shared, Xu Feng and Lu Fei had more time to spend with each other and Xiao Dan outside of their cultivation.

For the next two weeks, Xu Feng's cultivation improved steadily.

In terms of Qi and Blood values, successfully reaching 3800c is not worth mentioning.

Progress in Xunfeng swordsmanship is still slow, with 25 points of proficiency still needed to reach the proficiency level.

Based on the current progress of 1 point per day, it is estimated that we should be able to reach the proficient level by the middle of next month.

This A-level secret technique, the "Wind of the Sun" sword technique, has five levels, each with a power amplitude of 1.2 times.

Of course, this is only secondary.

Most importantly, it contains the incredibly destructive power of the "罡劲" (gangjin).

The manual says that the gale is all-pervasive and can even pierce cells, but I don't know exactly how powerful it is.

Even if the power was only average, Xu Feng didn't care.

It's enough to just practice until you reach the perfect 6x amplitude.

However, Xu Feng estimates that this will take quite a while.

His movement technique, Floating Light, is progressing well; he has just entered the proficient level.

B-level movement techniques are indeed extraordinary.

Having just mastered the basics, Xu Feng achieved a perfect score in the C-level movement training.

As for B-level agility training, he can easily reach the 70-point level, and even reach a maximum of 75 points.

Xu Feng had no idea what this result meant, so he asked others about it.

He only found out after asking that the score was actually quite high.

Li Suifeng, who had been practicing B-level movement techniques for two years, could only score 68 points in this training.

Luo Feng scored even lower, with only 49 points.

As for Lu Fei, she scored as high as 88 points, placing her among the top warriors.

Xu Feng even asked Li Tianlang about his agility training score, which was also around 85.

This shows that the level of movement technique has little to do with actual strength.

It all depends on individual practice.

Of course, the reason why Xu Feng was able to get such a high score was...

This was also thanks to the solid foundation laid by his perfected Shadow Step technique.

As for the other spiritual techniques, they have all steadily improved during this period, but there haven't been any major breakthroughs.

Only the Beast Taming chapter brought him a great surprise.

After just half a month of arduous training, Xu Feng successfully reached the proficient level.

According to the manual, we've reached this step.

Xu Feng has already been able to communicate with the mutated creatures in a basic way, and has a certain chance of subduing them.

However, he never tried it.

Xu Feng was very curious about this.

So on Friday night, he packed his things and left the city alone.

I left the city on Friday night and returned on Sunday night, which conveniently didn't interfere with my work hours.

That's how good working people are at "time management".

He planned to test the abilities of the Beast Taming Manual and also examine his recent cultivation progress.

Especially swordsmanship and movement techniques.

These secret techniques are difficult to test in terms of progress without actual combat.

At the same time, he also wanted to take down a couple of mutated creatures to increase his income.

Xu Feng didn't tell anyone about this trip except Lu Fei.

As soon as he left the city at dusk, Xu Feng immediately leaped up and flew straight into the depths of the Wumeng Mountains.

It only took an hour.

Xu Feng trekked for about 200 kilometers using an energy-saving mode, combining flying and running, while maintaining his high energy levels.

We finally arrived at a mountain hollow.

The faint roars of beasts could be heard all around.

If we go any deeper, we're more likely to encounter mutated creatures.

So Xu Feng simply chose a tree to set up camp, planning to begin exploring early the next morning.

Taking advantage of the approaching darkness of the setting sun, Xu Feng quickly set up a campsite.

They simply set up a hammock in the tree to prevent and repel insects, and then placed electronic alarms on the ground around the tree.

Xu Feng ate something and crawled into his sleeping bag to rest.

In addition to these measures, he also pinned four throwing knives to the surrounding woodland and trees.

He can use throwing knives to launch attacks from all directions at any time if danger approaches.

However, one cannot sleep soundly at night deep in the mountains.

Whether it was passing wild animals or the chirping of insects and roars of beasts in the forest, Xu Feng was often awakened.

In the middle of the night, Xu Feng suddenly heard a strange rustling sound in the forest.

After scanning with his mental energy, he immediately broke out in a layer of white sweat.

A mutated red-scaled viper, as thick as an adult's arm, was seen surging upwards along the tree trunk where he was, climbing towards the treetop.

Hsu Feng, who has been afraid of snakes since childhood, has never seen a snake climb a tree.

Upon witnessing this scene, an extremely eerie and terrifying feeling jolted him awake.

"puff!"

With a thought, Xu Feng sent two A-grade throwing knives flying out of the forest almost instantly.

The viper was chopped into three pieces on the spot.

Looking at the snake's body, still writhing on the ground.

Xu Feng got up with a disgusted look on his face, wrapped the snake's body in plastic wrap, and threw it several hundred meters away.

"Damn! This is so unlucky."

After cursing under his breath, Xu Feng lay back down.

He is most afraid of snakes, followed by all kinds of insects.

I've been afraid since I was a child.

Even now that they have the strength of a warrior, they are still very afraid.

Snakes and mosquitoes were even listed by Hsu Feng as creatures that should be eradicated forever.

Even if the snake was estimated to have the strength of a mid-level or even high-level beast soldier, he had no intention of taking it back with him.

I feel nothing but disgust!
He'd rather not earn that disgusting money!

Xu Feng gradually regained consciousness around 6 a.m.

Listening to the noisy birdsong in the forest, he raised his hand and threw a 20-piece throwing knife.

With a flapping of wings, the birdsong finally subsided.

Xu Feng then got up and washed up.

Because streams and brooks are not everywhere in the wild.

That's why Xu Feng stored two 40L full water buckets in his spatial ring before going out.

"Crash-"

After fetching water to wash up, Xu Feng packed his things and prepared to leave.

But at this moment.

He suddenly stopped moving.

The birdsong in the woods has been silent since just now.

That's not quite right.

These birds now are not the ordinary birds of the past.

Their fear of humans is very limited.

Xu Feng didn't intend for that strike to have any effect; it was simply a way to vent his anger.

He often does this when he goes out, and the flock of birds usually quiets down for a while before becoming noisy again.

But today, it's been a full ten minutes, hasn't it?
Xu Feng scanned the area with his mental energy and immediately realized what was happening.

Less than a hundred meters behind him, in a depression, was a striped tiger crouching.

Unlike the tiger in Xu Feng's memory, this tiger had a black snake's head growing on its tail!

The plesiosaur can typically grow to about three meters in length when fully grown.

It possesses the strength of a high-ranking beast soldier and is one of the mutated creatures with generally high group strength.

They usually live in groups of three to five, and there is a chance that a beast general will be born from them.

Xu Feng immediately went through the relevant information in his mind.

He then pretended nothing had happened and continued packing his things, eventually climbing the tree with his bag on his back.

Although early spring in the dimensional world is still cold, the plants have already stubbornly sprouted new buds.

The tree that Xu Feng chose is a type of Chinese cypress, which is 30 meters tall and has hardly lost any leaves.

So once he disappeared into the treetops, he was practically invisible. The snake-tailed tiger remained rooted to the spot, staring at Xu Feng's location.

But it didn't know that.

As soon as he disappeared into the bushes, Xu Feng immediately activated his invisibility belt and leaped into the air.

By the time the snake-tailed tiger began to wonder about Xu Feng's whereabouts, Xu Feng had already flown to the top of its head.

"Shh!"

That snake-tailed tiger was still very alert.

Although Xu Feng could not be seen, the snake head on its tail hissed and flicked its tongue, as if it had sensed something was wrong.

Snakes typically have poor eyesight, so they don't rely on sight but rather on sensing heat and scent molecules in the air to find their prey.

Xu Feng was fully aware of this.

So we were only about two meters away from the top of the snake-tailed tiger's head.

Without hesitation, he suddenly unleashed a mental storm!
hum!
Accompanied by a mental fluctuation.

The snake-tailed tiger convulsed almost instantly and collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

Xu Feng revealed himself and was about to approach.

Unexpectedly, the snake's head on its tail seemed to be still alive and suddenly lunged at him!
"boom!"

Xu Feng swung his sword horizontally, sending the man flying, and then instinctively tried to kill him.

But at the very moment he was about to make his move, he held back.

Suppressing his nausea, Xu Feng ignored the unconscious snake head and instead placed his hand on the tiger's head.

"Gather the seeds of mental power and construct a mental barrier."

Xu Feng silently followed the steps outlined in the manual.

I worked for a good five or six minutes, but still failed.

Xu Feng was sweating profusely: "No wonder schools don't recommend learning these kinds of secret techniques."

This is a thankless task with a low success rate.

During this time, Snake-Tailed Tiger regained consciousness, only to be knocked unconscious again by Xu Feng's punch.

On the fourth attempt, Xu Feng finally succeeded in condensing a seed of mental power within its mind, completing the construction of the mental restriction.

Then comes the process of "subduing".

Sure enough, after four or five minutes, the snake-tailed tiger regained consciousness.

"Roar!"

As soon as it woke up, it sprang up from the ground with a start, looking warily at Xu Feng standing in front of it.

"Submit to me," Xu Feng said to the tiger.

The snake-tailed tiger stared at Xu Feng with suspicion, not daring to move an inch.

This behavior looks incredibly foolish.

Even Hsu Feng himself wondered if he had been fooled by the manual.

But in the next moment.

"When the chieftain submits, I submit."

A slightly immature, stuttering voice echoed in his mind.

Xu Feng stared in astonishment at the snake-tailed tiger, feeling as if he had been mentally linked with it.

There's a kind of unseen feeling, as if with just a thought, I can decide the life or death of the other person.

Then, Xu Feng saw the three-meter-tall tiger lying on all fours on the ground.

And it quickly rolled over in front of him, revealing its fluffy white belly.

Even the snake's head on its tail drooped down.

Xu Feng cautiously approached the snake-tailed tiger and carefully touched its belly.

Then a "snoring" sound came from the snake-tailed tiger's chest.

Just like those cats that want to tame their human owners.

"Hahaha! Great!" Xu Feng laughed happily.

He patted the snake-tailed tiger's belly, and the tiger immediately stood up from the ground.

However, although he had successfully "subdued and recognized the master," it was not easy for Xu Feng to communicate with this guy.

The plesiosaur is clearly not very intelligent, and its communication is also very "smooth".

They can only express simple meanings haltingly.

However, Hsu Feng was still very satisfied.

After all, who wouldn't be excited to have such a big tiger as a subordinate?

"From today onwards, you will be called Snake."

Xu Feng patted the snake-tailed tiger's big head and said with a smile.

"Ow~"

Ah She's enormous tiger head swayed slightly as it affectionately nuzzled Xu Feng's chest.

Xu Feng gently patted the other's back, and saw the snake's head also affectionately close to him.

He immediately slapped him away: "Get away from me!"

The snake immediately turned its head and roared at its tail.

The snake's head could only droop pitifully.

Seeing this, Xu Feng nodded in satisfaction, and his disgust for the snake head lessened somewhat.

Of course, at most, it just went from extreme aversion to general aversion.

The next half day.

Xu Feng rode Ah She through the forest, galloping and leaping wildly, enjoying the feeling of riding a tiger and leopard.

Mutated tigers, whether in the past or present, are indeed still dominant species.

Even though they were only beast soldiers, they would always make way for Ah She whenever they encountered mutated creatures along the way.

Aside from a few low-IQ idiots, almost no mutated creatures bother them.

Upon reaching a certain location, Ah She stopped and conveyed a message to Xu Feng.

"Is this the location of your den of thieves?"

Xu Feng looked in surprise at a dense forest depression on a hill not far away, which resembled an oasis.

According to what Ah She said.

Its den is located there, where there is a tiger king and three female tigers.

And this is one of them.

In addition, there were originally two tiger cubs, but they died a few months ago while fighting a group of mutated creatures.

Xu Feng immediately became interested.

Tiger King is generally only qualified by beast generals.

In other words, there is actually a beast general in this tiger's den?
Moreover, he only had three soldiers under his command, and now one of them has been turned against him?
That's truly happiness delivered to your doorstep!

After a moment's thought, Xu Feng decided to take action.

If we can successfully capture that beast general-level serpent-tailed tiger, we'll make a fortune.

Even if we can't subdue them, this is the best opportunity to hunt down beast-general level creatures.

However, before making a decision, Xu Feng still asked his new employee for his opinion.

The answer it received was that it obeyed the arrangements of the "human leader" in everything.

Okay, this is the best kind of employee.

soon.

After communicating with Ah She, Ah She led Xu Feng closer and closer to the tiger's den.

Xu Feng sprayed himself with a special hunting "odor remover" to eliminate his human scent.

He then entered stealth mode, fully armed, hovering above Ah She's head, and made his way towards the tiger's den.

If he can get within about 50 meters of the target before they become alert, he can greatly increase the success rate of the attack.

soon.

The man and the beast arrived near the tiger's den.

"Roar!"

Before Ah She could get close, a smaller tigress let out a soft growl and leaped down from a nearby tree.

The two beasts were only a meter apart.

At this distance, Xu Feng could even see the other person's eyelashes.

Xu Feng's hand tightened, and he almost struck.

But the tigress merely touched noses with the snake.

Then, he looked around in surprise and sniffed as if he had smelled something.

And the snake head on its tail is raised high.

"Roar!"

Just then, Ah She roared, seemingly quite dissatisfied.

The tigress then looked at it with suspicion, but continued to circle around Ah She, as if she had sensed something.

Ah She got anxious.

He immediately roared and even raised his body, which seemed to be a threat or warning.

The tigress was not to be outdone and immediately confronted it.

Xu Feng's heart was in his throat.

at this time.

"Roar--"

A deeper roar came from the irregular cave nearby.

Immediately afterwards, a tiger, five meters long and as majestic as a small mountain, lazily strolled out of the cave.
