Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 47 101 Youth Corps
"Cough~~"

Lin Chen took the paper and pen, and the uncle coughed lightly.

As Lin Chen began writing, the uncle started coughing violently.

"Uncle, are you feeling unwell?" Lin Chen asked.

"No, no." The uncle was anxious, but he didn't say much because Jiang Dadong was watching from the side.

Although he was not afraid of Jiang Dadong, he was also unwilling to offend him.

Lin Chen finished writing quickly and handed it to Jiang Dadong.

"Brother Lin's handwriting is really good. I'll go back and prepare it for you, and send it to you later."

"Okay." Lin Chen nodded.

Jiang Dadong bowed to the market vendor again, then left with his men, giving Lin Chen's spirit beast two red envelopes before departing.

No sooner had they left than Little White and Little Red eagerly opened the box. Although there were only fifty inside, they were still overjoyed.

The uncle, looking anxious, said:

"Lin Chen, are you confused?!"

Lin Chen's eyes weren't as clear this time. He tricked the two spirit beasts out of their red envelopes, saying he would keep them for them for now.

He turned to look at the market vendor who had shown him concern and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man immediately asked with surprise, "The one you gave him was fake?"

"We added a few things that were missing, and then removed a few things."

The uncle's pupils widened as he glanced at the little fox.

Xiao Hong was puzzled, wondering what it had to do with her.

Then the older man asked, "Can the other person smell it?"

"It's because he can smell it that even if I keep you in suspense, it won't work. A good chef can distinguish all flavors. I guess he must have tried it while I was away these days."

The uncle then suddenly realized what was going on.

"Even if I don't give it to him, I can buy the materials from other stores later. If he wants to ask around, it won't be difficult. Rather than that, I might as well let him give up on the idea and save myself the cost of materials."

"Haha, I was worried for nothing."

The uncle felt relieved.

Monster Hunter Guild
The assistant pushed open the office door. Li Zhen looked up, saw it was the assistant, and asked, "Is there anything else today?"

"It's nothing serious." The assistant handed over a piece of paper and said, "The list of participants for the relic training event jointly organized by the Inner Court and the two major guilds has been released."

Li Zhen picked it up and glanced at it, his expression immediately becoming serious.

The paper covered with an official document from the inner court had only a few words written on it:
101st Youth Corps.

Holding the paper, Li Zhen's thoughts began to drift.
In the late primordial era, after the Heavenly Dao changed its rules, demonic beasts began to gain a huge advantage. Nine Star City, as a former vital passage, was in a strategic and dangerous location.

315 years later, the monsters launched a beast tide and attacked Nine Star City.

Cheng Kui, the commander of the garrison at Jiuxing City, predicted that the city would not be able to be defended and abandoned the city and all civilians.

All the able-bodied adults in the city left, leaving only the elderly, children, and the sick.

Amidst widespread fear, a young man named Su Yu stepped atop the walls of Nine Star City. With youthful passion, he raised his arms and shouted, and a hundred young beast tamers responded, thus forming the Youth Corps.

Su Yu led them to disguise themselves as a garrison unit, luring the enemy westward and delaying them for a considerable amount of time.

Until the reinforcements from the Cangling Ancient Kingdom arrived, Nine Star City was saved.

Unfortunately, none of the 101 boys returned.

That day, the whole city wept, and a poet praised it as follows:
"A spark of hope".

The "star" in Jiuxing City is derived from this.

In the year after the Beast God's birth, the Cangling Ancient Kingdom moved towards peace, but they searched westward for thousands of miles and could not find their remains.

Thinking about it now, Li Zhen's emotions remained calm, and he said, "It's good that we found them. We can finally bring them home."

After pondering for a moment at the table, Li Zhen said to his assistant, "Go and fetch Lin Chen."

As his assistant prepared to leave, Li Zhen stopped him again:
"No, bring Qin Hao and the other two here first. Don't call Lin Chen yet."

"Ok."

The next day, Jiang Dadong delivered the materials, along with a VIP card for free food and drinks. He also gave Niu Niu and Little Fox a large red envelope, saying that he hadn't brought enough money beforehand.

Lin Chen understood that Jiang Dadong must have failed in his debugging, otherwise he wouldn't be so obedient.

That's good, it saves us from having to scheme against each other later.

Lin Chen also told the delivery clerk that he wouldn't eat there often, and just needed to have him deliver one chicken wing to the market vendor every week.

In the evening, Lin Chen sat at the dinner table and asked Xiao Hong to prepare a sumptuous feast.

He wasn't worried that Jiang Dadong wouldn't be willing to do it. Since the other party was willing to give him a VIP card, he should be willing to give him a cigarette as well, since it really wasn't worth much. Lin Chen also wanted to show Jiang Dadong one thing: he, Lin Chen, was a grateful person.

Lin Chen also knew that he would probably not be able to set up a stall anymore, unless he was really short of money, since many shop owners were keeping an eye on him.

This world is far more dangerous than Earth, and it's inevitable that some people will seek profit and even commit murder.

After dinner, it was time for the usual training, but the little fox seemed a bit down.

"What's wrong?" Lin Chen asked.

Animals are just like humans; they also experience emotional fluctuations.

"Goo~~"

The little fox didn't hide anything; it told Lin Chen that it also wanted to become stronger as soon as possible.

It's obvious that since it came to this home, the little white dog's gradual growth has made it very envious.

It also wanted to become stronger, like Xiaobai, and fight monsters for Lin Chen.

Lin Chen laughed heartily, patted its head, and comforted it gently.

Qin Hao arrived the next day.

"Have you eaten yet?" Lin Chen asked as he opened the door.

Qin Hao was in high spirits, as was the Scaled Python.

The latter glanced at Lin Chen and Qin Hao and asked if it could go in and play with Xiaobai.

The two nodded, and the Scaled Python happily slid inside. The three spirit beasts were playing somewhere, making little noises, one gurgling, another mooing, and the other hissing.

Qin Hao looked at Lin Chen and said:

"I'm sorry."

"How did you wrong me?" Lin Chen asked, puzzled.

"I took the money and betrayed you."

Qin Hao's expression was serious, as if he were guilty.

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes, then said, "Then you really deserve to die."

"."

Qin Hao was speechless, thinking to himself, "Shouldn't you have asked me first before you started yelling?"

"It's alright, I forgive you. We can split the money 50/50," Lin Chen said.

"."

Qin Hao rolled his eyes.

Lin Chen chuckled.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?" Lin Chen said, "If you really did something to betray me, would you still dare to come here?"

Qin Hao scratched his head, then suddenly realized.

When it comes to using one's brain, I'm not even qualified to carry Lin Chen's shoes.

"Go ahead."

"Is such that."

After sitting down in the living room, Lin Chen poured tea, and Qin Hao explained in detail.

It turned out that Li Zhen had approached him and persuaded him to sell his spot as the Rookie of the Year.

Not only him, but Sun Guang and Bai Jiajia were also persuaded.

"I refuse, but..."

"Is the other party really giving too much?"

"In your heart, do you think of me, Qin Hao, as such a greedy person?"

Qin Hao slammed his hand on the table, startling the three beasts that were playing in the distance.

Lin Chen straightened the teacup on the table and said, "Yes."

"."

"They did give a lot."

Qin Hao admitted it, saying, "But mainly, I don't want to be a burden to you."

"President Li said that this year's Newcomer King's reward should be an exploration of the ruins, and the participants will be experts from the Inner Court."

“Then you really should sell it.” Lin Chen nodded.

"Couldn't you have been a little more tactful?"
