Destiny Beast Taming

Chapter 83 A Magnificent Twist!

Shen Xuan kept his eyes open, staring at the ceiling, afraid that if he fell asleep, he would find that it was all a dream.

I woke up to find myself back in the dimly lit, cramped, and crowded room of the Green Field Tavern.

Lan Po originally intended to enter Shen Xuan's dream after he fell asleep.

Experience Shen Xuan's dream and learn about his experiences.

But Shen Xuan couldn't fall asleep for a long time, let alone dream.

This made Lan Po bury her head in Zhong Yi's arms, feeling somewhat aggrieved.

When Zhongyi woke up early the next morning, Shen Xuan had already folded the quilt and gone downstairs to clean the shop.

When Zhong Yi got downstairs, she saw Shen Xuan wiping the flower stand that held the curly-leaf ivy, just like Zhong Chenghuai used to.

Iron-Armed Gorilla slyly plucked a vine from a curly-leaf ivy, wove it into a wreath, and placed it on Shen Xuan's head.

In no time, Shen Xuan was wearing four flower wreaths on his head.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, the Iron-Armed Gorilla picked up a flower wreath and put it in his mouth.

The fresh juice of the curly-leaf ivy splashed everywhere, landing on the flower stand that Shen Xuan had just wiped clean.

Shen Xuan first helped the Iron Arm Gorilla wipe the splattered citrus juice from its fur, and then quickly continued to wipe the flower stand that he had just cleaned.

Zhong Yi stepped forward, took off the remaining three flower wreaths from Shen Xuan's head, and put them on the Iron Arm Gorilla's thick arm.

"Iron Arm, if you want to eat curly vines, just eat them directly."

"From now on, these few pots of curly-leaved ivy will be your food source. You won't have to sneak around when you eat at home."

Upon seeing Zhong Yi, Shen Xuan quickly stood up. His shoulder-length hair draped over his neck, making his neck appear exceptionally fair and slender.

Zhong Yi walked to the merchandise area, picked up a stand-in doll, and handed it to Shen Xuan.

"Ah Xuan, once you've signed a contract with this substitute doll, you can have it do whatever you want."

"From now on, you should try to focus on your studies as much as possible, and read more books when you have free time."

Yesterday, when Shen Xuan saw Zhong Ling's stand-in doll, Da Lingdang, he was very envious of it.

Shen Xuan had heard of substitute dolls.

In the Upper Town, substitute dolls are commonly used as household animals, but in the Lower Town, they are very expensive.

Especially for slaves like Shen Xuan, a substitute doll is something that is both desirable and unattainable.

Being able to contract a substitute doll filled Shen Xuan with immense excitement.

Guided by Zhong Yi, Shen Xuan imprinted the blood from his fingertip onto the forehead of the substitute doll.

Soon, the doll in the box, which was only half an arm's length long, swelled up into a human girl who looked 70% like Shen Xuan.

Unlike Shen Xuan, who has a male body but a female appearance, this humanoid girl has a female body but a male appearance.

With sharp eyes and a resolute face, he was comparable to Shen Xuan in appearance, but their temperaments were completely different.

Before Zhong Yi transmigrated to the world of beast taming, she had watched an anime.

Shen Xuan's stand-in doll looks very similar to a class monitor named Mai Duo in the anime, only with more refined features.

While sleeping last night, Zhong Yi kept letting the Soul-Controlling Flower absorb the monster corpses in the storage pouch.

After just one night of absorption, the Soul Control Flower failed to condense a new Soul Control Seed.

Based on the current speed at which the Soul Control Flower condenses into Soul Control Seeds, it will probably be afternoon before a new Soul Control Seed is condensed.

Zhongyi was already very satisfied with this speed!

After breakfast, Zhao Kai prepared to continue recruiting apprentices for the Creators Guild.

Because Zhao Kai required the use of the Soul Imprint Jasmine to control his apprentices, many first and second-level creators are like Zhao Kai was back then.

He was unwilling to give up his freedom, and Zhao Kai did not force him to do so.

Zhao Kai plans to recruit twenty apprentice creators first, because if there are too many, Zhao Kai alone will not be able to guide them all.

"Young Master, I'll be going to Brother Huai's place later. Is there anything I should take with me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yi handed over the fifty young Blood Peony plants that Zheng Yufeng had given him yesterday to Zhao Kai.

"Brother Zhao, when you go there, please arrange for someone to plant these Blood Peonies for me."

"I water them daily with spring water mixed with growth hormones so they can bloom as soon as possible."

"When you come back, please pick out four Dragon Language Sables for me to bring back."

Zhao Kai took the storage bag from Zhong Yi and said with a smile.

"Young master, leave these to me. I should be able to recruit twenty apprentices by the time I finish recruiting them today."

"There are twenty apprentice creators with the first and second fingers. They can quickly and easily train beasts and take good care of those production-type beasts."

Zhong Yi originally planned to grow a few Fengwu coconut palms and Jue Mi lilacs, and use the coconut oil from the Fengwu coconut palms and the pollen from the Jue Mi lilacs to make an encrypted solution.

They mixed the Soul-Breaking Soil into the encryption solution and sold it as a Creator's potion.

But now that the Blood Demon Queen Bee is available, Zhongyi will use the Soul Control Seed to form a contract with her.

This allows the Blood Demon Queen bee to produce honey consistently, eliminating the need to sell potions adulterated with Soul-Breaking Soil.

After Zhao Kai left, Zhong Yi hesitated for a moment before dialing Lin Zhuo's number.

The phone was answered after only a few rings.

Lin Zhuo's voice, clearly tinged with pleasure, came from the other end of the phone.

"Xiao Yi, thank you for the fire-attribute Secret Realm Heart you gave me yesterday."

"I fused this Heart of the Mystic Realm into my Soul Foundation, which solved a problem that had been troubling me for a long time."

"Wen Tao is probably no match for me now. I'll definitely have a good fight with him when I get the chance!"

At this moment, Wen Tao was standing next to Lin Zhuo.

Hearing Lin Zhuo's words, Wen Tao was happy for Lin Zhuo, but a helpless smile appeared on his face.

From the moment they became Chosen Ones together, Lin Zhuo had always wanted to compete with him and see who was better.

Every time I win, it feels like I'm winning with great difficulty.

This really puts my acting skills to the test!

It's not that Lin Zhuo isn't strong, but rather that the rules mastered by Wen Tao's Order Beast happen to be the perfect counter to Lin Zhuo's Order Beast.

The Beastmaster talent also has a counteracting effect on Lin Zhuo's Beastmaster talent.

Given equal strength, regardless of the Beastmaster's talent, Lin Zhuo simply has no chance of winning due to the advantage of being countered by the Order Beast rules.

However, Lin Zhuo was right about one thing: the Soul Foundation received the blessing of this Fire Attribute Secret Realm Heart.

Lin Zhuo has indeed become much stronger than before!

Lin Zhuo's use of the Order Beast's rule authority has become much more convenient than before.

"Sister Zhuo, congratulations on becoming even stronger!"

"If you can obtain a fire-attribute secret realm heart later, and if the fire-attribute secret realm heart can further enhance your strength, I can give it to you."

Zhong Yi wasn't just being polite with Lin Zhuo; she had never had the habit of being polite.

Zhong Yi's previous idea was to improve his strength as soon as possible, and then explore the second-level secret realm once Hong Ji's strength reached the extraordinary level.

But ever since I learned that completing the Secret Realm exploration with a 100% success rate would grant me Divine Source Values, I've been planning to grind through the Level 1 Secret Realm for a while.

Obtain as much Divine Source as possible and unlock the Divine Source Shop first.

Exploring a level 2 secret realm to 100% is far less simple than exploring a level 1 secret realm to 100% success.

Having absorbed so many demonic materials, Hong Ji is now strong enough to basically sweep through the level one secret realm.

Besides focusing on herself, Zhong Yi also needs to take care of Shen Xuan and Zhong Ling.

Allowing both of them to obtain Divine Source Value to unlock the Divine Source Shop would also be of great benefit to Zhongyi.

Divine Source Values ​​cannot be shared between those who obtain them, but items obtained from the Divine Source Shop may be helpful to each other.

Upon hearing Zhong Yi's words, Lin Zhuo's expression first changed, and then a look of emotion appeared on his face.

For Lin Zhuo's Order Beast, Corona Fusang, to unleash its full power, it requires a tremendous amount of energy.

Implanting a Secret Realm Heart of the same attribute into the Soul Base can effectively enhance the energy recovery speed of the Order Beast Sun Crown Fusang in the Soul Base.

This is of paramount importance to Lin Zhuo.

Although it increases the energy recovery speed of the Order Beast, the effect is most noticeable when a Secret Realm Heart of the same attribute is implanted into the Soul Base for the first time.

However, if a Secret Realm Heart of the same attribute is implanted into the Soul Base later, it will also have a great effect.

Lin Zhuo did indeed need a fire-attribute Secret Realm Heart, but he did not take the opportunity to back down to Zhong Yi's suggestion.

"Xiaoyi, if you obtain another Secret Realm Heart, you can prioritize using it on yourself or to train other Beastmasters in your team."

"Although I have never really approved of Wen Tao's method of using the Soul-Binding Gu Mother to control the people around him, if you are going to give the members of the team the Heart of the Secret Realm, you must have a binding means to ensure their loyalty."

"If you have any extra Fire Attribute Secret Realm Hearts later, I can exchange them with you for matching resources."

Lin Zhuo spoke these words with utmost seriousness.

Lin Zhuo is Zhong Yi's protector, although Lin Zhuo has not told Zhong Yi about his identity as her protector.

However, no matter what, Lin Zhuo would definitely not take advantage of Zhong Yi.

Lin Zhuo believed that he could obtain many more Secret Realm Hearts after he became interested.

Even when Star Emperor and Frost Day first explored a Level 1 Secret Realm, they did not achieve a feat like Zhong Yi's.

Lin Zhuo repeatedly asked Su Ya for confirmation, and Zhong Ling's combat methods were not very effective in the Horned Demon Secret Realm.

Having just awakened his Soul Foundation, he had already reached 100% exploration of the Horned Demon Realm, which can be considered a miracle created by Zhong Yi alone.

"Xiaoyi, I heard from Old Chen that Old Zheng went to your place to protect your safety."

"Atao and I have also arranged for people to patrol near your Beast Taming Shop on South Cross Street."

"For safety reasons, I still recommend that you move to the central area as soon as possible."

"If the South Cross Street, which is adjacent to the Lower City, really encounters some trouble, it will take time for both the Town Ghost Division and the Star Army to provide support."

Hearing Lin Zhuo say that both he and Wen Tao had arranged for people to protect her safety near the Evolution Shop, Zhong Yi felt a warmth in her heart.

"Sister Zhuo, I will be moving there completely in the next few days."

"Sister Zhuo, the reason I'm talking to you this time is because I have something important to discuss with you."

Upon hearing that Zhongyi had something important to discuss, Lin Zhuo immediately became serious.

The last time Zhongyi said he had something important to do, he still discovered the strangeness of that mythical-level creature.

"What important business do you have? Do you need me and Atao to come over?"

Zhong Yi glanced up at Shen Xuan, who was interacting with the stand-in doll, and said with a smile.

"Sister Zhuo, you and Brother Tao really need someone to come over later."

"Among the younger generation of Starlight City, we now have a true fourth Chosen One!"

Zhong Yi's words struck Lin Zhuo like a thunderbolt.

At first, Lin Zhuo even doubted whether she had misheard.

Lin Zhuo asked subconsciously.

"Xiao Yi, are you saying that since you, another Chosen One has emerged in Starlight City?"

Lin Zhuo's words also surprised Wen Tao, who was standing next to him, causing an incredulous look to appear on Wen Tao's usually calm face.

"That's right, Brother Zhao personally helped him awaken his soul foundation last night."

"Sister Zhuo is a combat-type Chosen One. I know there are many combat-type Chosen Ones, and the standards for achieving a high potential rating are higher than for defensive, control, or support-type Chosen Ones."

"However, if my judgment is correct, he has the potential to be rated SS."

Zhong Yi's statement that there was an additional Chosen One had already greatly surprised Lin Zhuo and Wen Tao.

This newly chosen one's potential rating is actually capable of reaching SS level!

Besides being fond of this healing-type Chosen One, is Star City also going to have a potential SS-rank combat-type Chosen One?

Lin Zhuo didn't ask Zhong Yi too many questions over the phone, and immediately said...

"Atao and I will head over right now!"

"If Xiao Yi is really as you say, then our Star City will be making a name for itself in the New Xia Federation."

"In the past decade, a total of five Chosen Ones have been reported, which is definitely among the top five in all the strong cities."

"Considering your potential SSS rating, you could even secure a top-three spot."

When Lin Zhuo said these words, he was both surprised and somewhat amused.

A week ago, Star City had only two Chosen Ones in the past decade, and at that time Star City was still at the bottom of the twenty-nine mighty cities in the New Xia Federation.

In just one week, Star City has completed a magnificent turnaround.

From near the bottom to near the top!

The number of Chosen Ones is related to the future development of a city; if the number of Chosen Ones becomes scarce over several decades...

This foreshadows the stagnation or even regression of this magnificent city's development in the coming decades.

The twenty-nine majestic cities of the New Summer Federation, plus the royal capital, have many rankings.

The most valued ranking is the potential list of new Chosen Ones. Although Chosen Ones have extremely long lifespans, even if no new Chosen Ones appear for decades, the older generation of Chosen Ones are enough to support a magnificent city.

However, the resources within the New Xia Federation are allocated by the newly chosen ones through various competitions.

With a scarcity of newly born Chosen Ones, the resources that the New Xia Federation will pour into this magnificent city will decrease in the coming decades.

The authority of some official organizations within Xiongcheng, and even the staffing of the Zhengui Division, will be reduced.

The reduction in the number of personnel in the Zhengui Division will inevitably lead to a decline in the security of this magnificent city.

The resulting chain reaction will greatly reduce the development potential of a magnificent city.

This is one of the reasons why each powerful city attaches such importance to those who are reborn with a destiny.
