Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 357 Thunder City
Lin Chen was taken aback. Sun Ji had mentioned this possibility before, but in this era, humans could not perceive the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so they could not cultivate.

If humans want to regain their cultivation abilities, the only way, besides ancient "immortals" like Qin Shaoshao, is to establish a connection with spirit beasts.

This conclusion existed in the "Beast Taming Manual" for a long time, but it was later deleted.

There was once a madman who claimed to be a researcher. He drank animal blood every day in an attempt to change his physique, but he was backfired and died.

Later, the "Beast Taming Manual" retracted this conclusion.

But some people still manage to get the opportunity by chance.

Unfortunately, even if these people obtain the opportunity to cultivate, their future achievements will still be limited because most of their blood is still human, making them unable to achieve the same level as spirit beasts.

But Li Zhen's situation is different. Li Zhen has phoenix blood in his body, which is a celestial blood type. His future achievements will surely surpass those of these people.

Lin Chen was happy for Li Zhen. After the meal, Lin Chen prepared to set off, because there were only about two months left in the Bear King Tournament. It would take almost a month to travel from the Spirit Academy to Thunder City.

"There will inevitably be another power shift within the country in the future. However, Tiandu is still consolidating its forces, and Gu Ning's power is not yet strong enough. Once he becomes powerful, Tiandu's power will continue to grow, and your Monster Hunter Guild will undoubtedly be your primary target," the Grand Elder said to Lin Chen before leaving.
"You need to grow as much as possible during this time. Now that you have shown your potential and are tied to the Spirit Academy and the Monster Hunter Guild, many things will no longer be up to you to choose."

Lin Chen nodded; he understood what the Grand Elder meant.

Finally, Lin Chen, along with Qin Shaoshao, bid farewell to the Tree Ancestor and the others, and left the Spirit Academy, with many students seeing them off from afar.

雷城
After the war ended, Thunder City announced that the postponed Bear King Tournament would be restarted, inviting all the Bear Kings in the world to participate.

Lei City has a great reputation. Although it is far from the prosperous areas of Cangling Ancient Kingdom, its unique location and the fact that most of the people of Lei City are righteous and wealthy have contributed to its good reputation.

Xu Pingzhi, as the city lord of Leicheng, is actually quite special.

There are three major families in Leicheng: the Xu family, the Liu family, and the Chen family.

The three families take turns being elected as city lords, with each family serving a five-year term.

The people of Thunder City are united, especially their families.

This term was not originally Xu Pingzhi's term, but because Xu Pingzhi managed the previous term very well, the other two parties agreed that Xu Pingzhi could serve another term.

This decision was absolutely correct. Xu Pingzhi also made reasonable use of resources and deployed tactics during the monster horde chaos, making Thunder City a model city with the fewest losses during the monster horde chaos.

Since the news was released, many important figures have come to visit, so Xu Pingzhi has been busy with social engagements every day.

"Lord, someone has delivered a visiting card outside, along with this." The steward came up and took out a token.

Xu Pingzhi said without even looking, "Didn't we already agree to meet with the Guan family today?"

"Lord, the other party claims to be from the Spirit Academy."

Xu Pingzhi immediately turned his head, looked at the token, and his pupils shrank.

He remembered this token because he had only given away three of them in the past few years.

As for those related to the Spirit Academy, that's all.
Lin Chen?!
"He's here?!"

Xu Pingzhi was overjoyed.

The butler was puzzled; the other party was just two young people.

"Who else?"

"There was a woman who looked younger than the man."

"broken."

Xu Pingzhi knew he was referring to something, so he quickly straightened his robe and walked outside, saying as he went, "Tell the Guan family head to postpone the meeting with them for now, and arrange for the Guan family to be treated with the highest courtesy. They must not be impolite. I will personally go and apologize later."

"Okay, City Lord."

The butler nodded.

The Guan family is actually a small family; it doesn't really matter whether we meet or not.

But Xu Pingzhi always acted this way—not only calm and collected, but also striving for comprehensiveness. Upon stepping outside, Xu Pingzhi saw Lin Chen and Qin Shaoshao. Overjoyed, he went up to them and said:

"You've seen Senior Qin address you like this before, haven't you? Young friend Lin."

Qin Shao Shao behind him nodded slightly in response.

Lin Chen replied, "Lord Xu, please don't ask me. I'm just a young man who doesn't know much about etiquette."

"Haha, young friend Lin, you're quite the joker," Xu Pingzhi said. "No, I should address you as Chairman Lin or Elder Lin."

"No, please don't," Lin Chen said. "The Grand Elder said before he came that we've been friends for many years. If he finds out, he'll definitely scold me for being impolite. Just call me Young Friend Lin."

"OK."

Xu Pingzhi gestured and said, "This way, please."

Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting and led Qin Shao Shao inside.

At this point, Xu Pingzhi introduced the residence and instructed the steward beside him, "Go and prepare bedrooms for the senior and young friend Lin."

"One room or two rooms?" The butler was a little confused.

Xu Pingzhi was startled when he heard this and quickly replied, "Two rooms."

"Yes."

The butler realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly left.

Xu Pingzhi was a man of high emotional intelligence. He didn't even mention such a topic. Instead, he said, "Please, I have already had some wine prepared to entertain you two."

Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting.

As they sat down to eat, Xu Pingzhi asked directly, "Young friend Lin, are you planning to participate in the Bear King Competition?"

“Exactly.” Lin Chen nodded and said, “I’ve long heard that the Bear King Championship is one of the top three leagues in the country, so I’ve come to see it for myself.”

"With young friend Lin here, it seems we can already predetermine a champion for this year."

"You jest, City Lord."

"Come on, let's eat first. After we finish eating, I'll take you for a walk around the city."

"The city lord is busy, how could I possibly accept this?"

"It's alright. When friends come from afar, it's only natural to personally entertain them. Otherwise, your elder would blame me."

"Thank you very much."

Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting.

After finishing their meal, Xu Pingzhi took Lin Chen out, but instead of just strolling around, he took him somewhere.

This place is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Thunder City. It is a huge city and is not open to the public.

"This is the core of Thunder City, the place where the Thunder Emperor lived back then," Xu Pingzhi introduced, and Lin Chen was stunned upon hearing this.

The title "Thunder Emperor" is an honorific title for a beast tamer.

At the end of the Primordial Era, a beast tamer appeared in Thunder City and contracted a bear named Jie Xian.

This bear is extremely sensitive to lightning, and its breakthroughs are terrifying.

It encounters a tribulation almost every time it evolves, but this is actually a good thing for it.

Finally, it attained immortality and established Thunder City.

Its reputation was once on par with that of the Immortal Fox Taihua. However, since Lei City was far from the bustling eastern region, there weren't many legends or stories about the Tribulation Immortal outside of Lei City.
