Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 130, Family Tree, on a separate page.

Clearly, Lin Chen wasn't so lucky.

I went inside and looked around, and found that everything was just ordinary stuff.

"She really got incredibly lucky," Lin Chen said.

This chicken shop has thousands of chickens, and she managed to find a phoenix among them. What else could that be but pure luck?

"You're just jealous," Li Zhen teased.

“It’s normal to be envious,” Lin Chen said. “If I find one, even without a contract, I can just sell it and live off it.”

Li Zhen just smiled.

Lin Chen is indeed a bit short of money right now. He earned 500,000 yuan by receiving gifts from Qin Shaoshao, but he also spent nearly 2 million yuan on materials. In addition, he paid for all the expenses himself for this trip without asking Li Zhen for any money.

Although Li Zhen paid a large sum of severance pay, Lin Chen also knew...
Li Zhen is currently facing difficulties finding employment.

Therefore, Lin Chen now only has 1.5 million left.

This sum of money looks like a lot, but it won't last long.

For a novice to cultivate spiritual power, he needs high-grade calming pills and to eat the meat of demon beasts, so this sum of money won't last long.

Lin Chen currently has three sources of income:

The first benefit is the basic welfare of the Beast Tamer Guild. However, although the Tian Shu Pavilion has improved the welfare this time, the amount that trainee Beast Tamers can receive each month is too small, only a few thousand yuan, which can be ignored.

The second source of income was the barbecue restaurant, which was Lin Chen's main source of income. However, Jiang Dadong's restaurant was severely damaged during the beast tide and only reopened two months later. However, sales have not returned to their peak because there are fewer people in Nine Star City.

Based on the consumption of barbecue restaurants, the monthly cost is approximately 150,000 yuan.

The third investment is in the brand ambassadorship for Xiaobai, which pays 10,000 yuan per month.

Therefore, Lin Chen's monthly income is approximately 160,000.

"I need to go back and discuss it with Jiang Dadong. We need to get an advance payment first," Lin Chen pondered.

Once I go to the Spirit Academy, I don't know how long it will take to get back. I need to grind the powder properly to make money when I get back.

Black Mountain City

Tai Niu Yuan

An urgent document was hurriedly delivered to Zhu He. He glanced at it and noticed that it was signed by the Beast Tamer Guild, so he immediately took it seriously.

Upon opening it, it was written:

[The new evolution form of the Plover]

"The Ploughhorn Beast can have a new evolved spirit beast?" Zhu He asked in surprise, and called to Xu Youzhen who was standing next to him, "Professor Xu, come and take a look with me."

Xu Youzhen was also very interested after hearing this, and jogged over.

[Recently, at the Beast Mirror Academy in Nancheng, under the guidance of Master Chen Yun, the Plowhorn Beast evolved into a brand new spirit beast form. Below is the information on the new spirit beast; all organizations are encouraged to record it.]

The Kui spirit beast has light blue skin throughout.

[Advanced Spiritual Metamorphosis]

"It seems another plow-horned divine bull has appeared." Xu Youzhen's expression was very excited.

Throughout history, it has been common for plow-horned beasts to evolve into new spirit beasts. However, plow-horned beasts are low-level mortal beasts, and most of them evolve to the low-level spirit molting stage, while the stronger ones evolve to the mid-level spirit molting stage.

But I've never seen one evolve to the advanced level of Spirit Transformation.

So this is historic.

Xu Youzhen had studied the plow-horned beast for many years, so he naturally saw it clearly.

In addition, the Plume's signature move, Iron Horn Blast, seems to have undergone a more advanced evolution.

Its afterimages increased to 12, and they kept overlapping as it ran.

The awakened beast tamer eventually named it: Thousand Shadows Return to One.

"A thousand shadows returning to one?!" Xu Youzhen found it hard to imagine what kind of effect this would have.

Zhu He, however, said, "No wonder."

"What's wrong?" Xu Youzhen asked.

“Take a look at the name,” Zhu He said.

Xu Youzhen looked down and saw a familiar name:

Lin Chen.

"So it was him." Xu Youzhen was both surprised and unsurprised.

Back then, Xiaobai was able to defeat the Beast King Cub Bone Armored Ox by relying on its Ploughhorn Beast form, which was far above its level.

Now that it has evolved to the level of advanced spiritual transformation, it is not surprising at all.

He was just surprised by the coincidence.

However, it actually evolved and became a new species.
Xu Youzhen sighed.

In the past, Jiang Yue's Plough Horn Beast and Lin Chen's Plough Horn Beast were at roughly the same level, but now Jiang Yue's Plough Horn Beast is only level 18.

"Could it be that his talent as a beast tamer is leveling up?" Xu Youzhen wondered.

However, Xu Youzhen quickly abandoned this idea, as Xiaobai's leveling speed was not fast at all.

Its advantages are: solid foundation, abnormal skills, and fierce combat power.

In terms of leveling up, Xiaobai doesn't have a significant advantage over other spirit beasts.

He can only be considered talented.

After all, Lin Chen wasn't into leveling up.

A week later, Lin Chen returned to Nine Star City.

Nine Star City has now emerged from the shadow of the beast tide and is beginning to move towards normalcy.

Just as Li Zhen had said before, when the guild disbanded, Qin Hao and the others were all sent to the inner courtyard, so at least they could enjoy the benefits.

When Lin Chen returned, they had already entered the inner courtyard.

Lin Chen also put in a lot of effort to prepare to reinforce his old house.

Lin Chen wouldn't bother with it if it were just a normal place to live, but considering he would be leaving soon, it needed some repairs.

After all, if a house is not lived in, it will quickly become dilapidated and old, and no one knows why.

Lin Chen didn't want to come back to find his dilapidated little home reduced to ruins.

He went to the mortuary to enjoy its benefits.
After graduation, I will definitely return to this dilapidated and small home.

Lin Chen is a pragmatic person, and naturally he hopes to become stronger, because only by becoming stronger can he survive in this chaotic world. In particular, this beast tide has made Lin Chen deeply aware of the crisis.

What would this city be like without Qin Shaoshao?

Therefore, Lin Chen began to be obsessed with becoming stronger.

But Lin Chen didn't care that much about his reputation.

It would be best if it were available, but I wouldn't force it if it weren't.

After all, Lin Chen's reputation wasn't very good in the eyes of Li Zhen and his group, and they often misunderstood his character.

After resting for three days, Lin Chen went to find Jiang Dadong and told him what had happened.

"Why don't you just sell me the formula?" Jiang Dadong was shocked when he heard that Lin Chen was leaving.

Without barbecue seasoning, this shop might as well not even need to stay open.

“That won’t do. I’ll have to come back to retire in the future,” Lin Chen said. “I need a pension.”

Jiang Dadong was speechless, but didn't force the issue.

Although he and Lin Chen are now familiar with each other, business is business and personal relationships are personal relationships.

"I'll try to stock up on as much barbecue seasoning as possible this month. Can you give me an advance?"

“No problem.” Jiang Dadong nodded.

"Thanks, brother."

"Don't say that," Jiang Dadong said. "There are very few people in our Nine Star City who can go to the Spirit Academy, and even fewer ordinary people. Wherever you go, you must work hard and not embarrass yourself."

After saying that, he took out a sum of money, a full 500,000 yuan, and said, "Consider this money as a scholarship for you."

Lin Chen was taken aback, but after thinking for a moment, he accepted the money, as he was indeed short of cash. He thanked him again. In any case, he already had dealings with Jiang Dadong, so owing him this favor wouldn't hurt.

In the days that followed, Xiaobai focused on consolidating its foundation, and Lin Chen made it a new sandalwood ox pendant. The little fox, on the other hand, began to help pack its things, looking for anything it needed to take with it.

But after looking around, only my own piggy bank is a necessity; everything else can be forgotten.

As for Lin Chen, he was either grinding powder or on his way to grind powder.

"Set a small goal, let's start by grinding down a million dollars."

Lin Chen fell asleep exhausted every day. On the twentieth day at noon, someone came to his door.

Upon opening the door, they found it was Ning Ye.

"Surprised?" Ning Ye asked.

"A little." Lin Chen invited him in and said, "You are the head of the Ning family."

"He doesn't even have the same status as you, a favorite of the deity."

"Uncle Ning is giving me a warning," Lin Chen said with a wry smile.

Ning Ye sat down, looked around, and said, "This place is a bit shabby."

"As long as there's a place to live, that's fine."

"That's true, but you'll have to marry a girl someday."

"That's for the future; I don't have that idea for now." Lin Chen smiled, avoiding the topic, afraid that Ning Ye might say something like, "I have a distant cousin who is beautiful and skillful."
However, Lin Chen was wrong; Ning Ye came to deliver money.

“Ning Tian has been at the Spirit Academy for almost a year now,” Ning Ye said. “I wonder if he needs money. Could you send him some money this time?”

Lin Chen glanced at it and saw that it contained five million.

You call this a little bit?
Lin Chen looked at his hands, which were red and raw from being rubbed, and fell into deep thought.

Tian Shu Pavilion, you are indeed guilty.
Why did you agree to cancel the Monster Hunter Guild?

"Uncle, aren't you afraid I'll take it?" Lin Chen asked.

"Don't worry, it would be even better if you took it."

"Why?"

"Then you'll owe me a favor," Ning Ye said.

Lin Chen was initially puzzled, but then he understood that Ning Ye must have guessed that it was he who instructed Qin Shaoshao to only accept evolution materials from the Ning family.

Clearly, from an outsider's perspective, the Ning family is currently the closest to Qin Shao Shao.

This is a huge boost to the prestige of the Ning family.

"Senior is not good at worldly affairs. If anything happens to her in the future, I hope Uncle Ning can take good care of her," Lin Chen said after thinking for a moment.

“That’s for sure,” Ning Ye said. “Our Ning family is the one who benefits from being able to climb up her social ladder.”

Finally, Lin Chen promised Ning Ye that he would deliver the money, and then saw him to the door.

Ning Ye was about to leave, but after taking two steps, he turned back and said, "I often tell Ning Tian that if you can avoid leaving, it's best not to."

"A man may aspire to travel far and wide, but he should also have roots."

"Our roots are in Nine Star City."

"Although the senior is very strong, it is still not enough compared to the big cities."

"No one knows if the monsters will break their promise again. If that happens, it will be us, the people in the lower-class cities, who will suffer."

"So, keep up the good work. I don't expect you to come back and benefit your hometown in the future, but I hope you can protect the peace here."

"Uncle is being too optimistic." Lin Chen didn't accept this empty promise, but remembering Qin Shaoshao's words, he said, "Nine Star City is also my home."

Ning Ye smiled, then bowed and left.

He didn't originally intend to say such things, but after the conversation, he felt that if Lin Chen could really gain a foothold in the Spirit Academy, his future would be limitless.

If we can become good friends, then naturally we should do so first.

Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye, and Lin Chen actually produced a million yuan worth of barbecue powder.

Jiang Dadong took a look and was dumbfounded. He said, "You're not really planning not to come back, are you?"

"It's simply a matter of lacking money," Lin Chen said.

Jiang Dadong took out one million and handed it to Lin Chen. Lin Chen accepted it and felt a little more at ease.

He now has nearly three million in his hands.

Although the Cangling Ancient Kingdom has the Gale Beast, the location of the Spirit Academy is extremely far from here.

Based on the flight schedule, it's estimated to take about a month, and the costs won't be small, so Lin Chen probably won't be coming back often.

However, no one can predict the future. Since this is Lin Chen's first time traveling far from home, he naturally wants to make sure he has enough money so that he can feel a little more secure.

Afterwards, Lin Chen went to see Li Zhen and heard that Huang Xiaotian had indeed left Nine Star City, apparently to go on a trip.

Xia Yu, on the other hand, went to the Beast Tamer Guild and found a job as a full-time sparring partner, which was a good outcome for her.

"I went to the Spirit Academy to try and injure that phoenix for you and get some blood back." Lin Chen still hadn't forgotten the phoenix in the South City.

Li Zhen laughed heartily and said, "I believe you. You are indeed a menace. I reckon the Spirit Academy will not be peaceful in the future."

"."

Lin Chen felt that his good intentions had been taken for granted.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhen took out one million and handed it to Lin Chen.

"What's this for?" Lin Chen didn't answer.

Li Zhen is finding it difficult to find a job now because of his one arm.

Although many jobs are now done by spirit beasts, Li Zhen was the guild leader before, so he can't very well do low-paying work.

“You probably only have a little over a million right now. Take it, consider it my advance payment for the Phoenix Blood,” Li Zhen said. “I usually just raise spirit beasts, so I don’t need any expenses.”

"Besides, this is a loan, and it needs to be returned later."

"Alright then." Lin Chen accepted it, knowing that Li Zhen had probably already thought it through, and that not accepting it would only make him unhappy.

However, he still said, "The chairman miscalculated this time. I have more than one million; I have four million now."

"Where did this come from?" Li Zhen asked in utter surprise.

This time, Lin Chen didn't hide anything and told everyone about the barbecue restaurant.

"You made that barbecue powder?" Li Zhen was shocked. Many food people in the city were looking for it.

"Correct."

Lin Chen nodded.

"With this money, we won't feel too shabby when we go to the Spirit Academy," Li Zhen concluded.

According to Lin Chen's plan, he would set off in seven days. Although there were two months left before the registration period at the Spirit Academy, Lin Chen did not plan to leave at night because he would feel unsafe without experts like Qin Shaoshao and Li Zhen by his side.

Lin Chen even specially planned a flight route that consisted almost entirely of major cities.

It's a bit far, but safety is guaranteed.

Finally, Lin Chen went to see Qin Shaoshao.

"Senior, I'll be setting off in two days." As Lin Chen entered, Xiao Bai and Xiao Hong went to play with the Soul-Devouring Vine.

Qin Shao Shao glanced at Lin Chen and nodded.

Lin Chen knew her personality, so he sat down beside her and watched the three spirit beasts playing while he talked.

Simply put, he talked, while Qin Shaoshao picked flower petals and occasionally replied with a comment.

"Ningye is trustworthy." Lin Chen said in the end, "You don't need to worry about interpersonal relationships, but the real world is very complicated. If you meet a reliable person and can get along with them, then try to get along with them."

Qin Shao Shao nodded heavily this time.

Lin Chen realized he had been being a bit long-winded, so after sitting for a few hours, he got up and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Young Master Qin spoke up at this moment:

"If the mental imprint is removed, then come back."

Lin Chen was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and smiled, saying, "Okay."
