Beast Taming Begins with the Inner Circle of Pets

Chapter 150 Departure

After Lin Manman slipped out, Fang Yaqi was still in class.

Lin Manman went in to greet her after her long lecture ended.

Although she contacted Fang Yaqi immediately after her bracelet was replaced.

However, all things considered, this was the first time the two had met since Fan Chengye took her away, which was only about ten days ago.

"Are you here to transfer schools today?" Fang Yaqi asked, her voice filled with undisguised disappointment as she strolled around the school with Lin Manman.

She knew about Lin Manman's plan to go to the capital back during the Junior Professional Competition.

But seeing that the time was almost up, she still couldn't help feeling reluctant to leave.

"Yes, we're leaving for the capital tomorrow. Once I've made a name for myself there, I'll bring you over to inherit the empire I've built," Lin Manman comforted Fang Yaqi, putting her arm around her shoulder.

Fang Yaqi burst out laughing at his boastful manner, which also dispelled the sadness in her heart.

"You're all talk and no action. The capital and Nanjing are not the same. Don't be too impulsive when you go there." Fang Yaqi recalled the commotion Lin Manman caused when school started.

He was worried that she would act too recklessly in the capital and cause him trouble.

There are countless powerful families and conglomerates in the capital, unlike here in Nanjing.

Although Nanjing is known as a place of outstanding people and abundant talent, its schools can rival those in Shanghai and Beijing in terms of ranking.

However, in reality, the power gap between the factions is still quite large.

The forces in Jinling City are first-rate, and they are not even worth mentioning compared to the third-rate forces in the capital.

Lin Manman felt a warmth in her heart from her concern. "Don't worry, when have I ever acted recklessly? Besides, things are different now. I have someone to rely on, so don't worry too much about me."

"However, it's probably difficult to start a new business in the capital in the short term. I'll try to open the spirit beast shop within a year."

"You decide based on your own situation. My mom and I aren't in a hurry. We've made it this far, so what's another year or two?"

Perhaps because Lin Manman was about to leave, Fang Yaqi didn't banter with her as usual.

The two walked and talked until Meng Wenbin sent a message to Lin Manman, informing her that everything was settled and she could go back.

Seeing that Fang Yaqi had her head down and her eyes were slightly moist, Lin Manman reached out and hugged her, saying softly, "I'm leaving now. Take care of yourself."

"I know...you too." Fang Yaqi hugged her back, then pushed her away.

"Although the signal might be a bit weak across major cities, it's not like we can't contact each other. It's just that we won't see each other for a year, and it will pass quickly."

Fang Yaqi seemed to be comforting Lin Manman, but more like she was telling herself something.

Lin Manman smiled and took out a level four crystal core from her spatial bracelet. It was a gift from Wu Jingfeng when she opened her shop.

"Light attribute crystals are relatively rare, and I happen to have one here. Keep it for now, and use it to forge a priest's staff when you're able to use it."

After saying that, she stuffed the crystal core into Fang Yaqi's hand, turned around and ran away, not giving her a chance to refuse.

Fang Yaqi clenched the crystal core in her hand, and Lin Manman's figure gradually blurred in her eyes.

Early the next morning, with Ke Ke and Qiu Xiangjing's family seeing them off, Lin Manman's family, Meng Wenbin, and Xia Ming boarded a flight to the capital.

If Lin's mother and Xia Ming, two ordinary people, hadn't accompanied him, Meng Wenbin might have chosen to take Lin Manman and her brother back directly on the flying dragon.

After all, this would save at least a day.

However, while flying is a bit slow, it's not without its advantages. Long-haul flights like these are usually equipped with very comprehensive recreational facilities.

Since training was impossible on the aircraft, Lin Manman simply opened a holographic private cinema with her furry friends.

One person and seven pets gathered together to study the battle videos of the Imperial Capital Colosseum.

Lin Ruochen, who came along to see what was going on, found it interesting and stayed to watch as well.

The capital city is dominated by the alliance, which has led to unprecedented prosperity in all walks of life. For example, the arena in the beast fighting video that Lin Manman is watching is backed by other forces in the capital city.

The rules of this arena are very simple: any beast tamer or anyone else who has a spirit beast can use it to participate in the arena's matches.

Winning the game will earn you a generous prize.

This prize money comes not only from the Colosseum's direct distribution based on the number of victories, but also from a portion of the bets won by the Colosseum based on the results of each match.

In short, winning just one game can bring you a very substantial reward.

This has led many non-beast tamers to capture wild spirit beasts for competitions.

After all, the entry fee for the competition is not much, and if you win, the reward is ten times, twenty times, or even more times. Who wouldn't be tempted by that?

The video showed a wolf-type spirit beast and a flying spirit beast fighting. Flying spirit beasts naturally have an absolute advantage over ground spirit beasts.

But when the wolf-shaped spirit beast raised its head and let out a howl, the flying spirit beast suddenly stopped moving and fell straight down from the sky.

"Awoo?" Silver Moon was very interested in seeing this scene.

When it usually faces Ah-Dai, given Ah-Dai's flying ability, its ranged attacks have a hard time reaching Ah-Dai.

However, Ah-Dai, with its aerial advantage, was able to suppress its ground-based attacks, making it feel very passive.

Seeing that wolves can use their howls to attack opponents in the air today, it immediately perked up.

Lin Manman touched her chin when she heard its question.

"That wolf howl must contain a mental attack. You can try to learn it later. It's definitely a good technique against opponents who can fly."

"Hiss." Rainbow Jade wagged its tail triumphantly, indicating that it was not afraid of opponents that could fly.

Silver Moon glanced at it sideways, and before Rainbow Jade could react, the shadow beneath it emitted strands of pure black silk, binding it firmly to the ground.

Lin Manman sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. There were no major conflicts between Yin Yue and Hong Yu, but there were constant minor ones.

Unfortunately, after Rainbow Jade upgraded to level three and then became the Blood-Patterned Devouring Python, it loved to constantly provoke Silver Moon.

The two beasts had been fighting each other openly and secretly countless times, out of Lin Manman's sight.

At first, Honey Badger would try to mediate the fights, but later he realized that most of the time it was Rainbow Jade who was being cheeky and provoking Silver Moon, and then he couldn't beat her, so he stopped caring.

While Rainbow Jade's spatial abilities are elusive and unpredictable, Silver Moon's dark abilities are even more enigmatic and difficult to fathom.

As long as there is light, Silver Moon can manipulate the dark energy in the shadows and bind Rainbow Jade into a dumpling in no time.

As time went on, Yin Yue became too lazy to discipline it, so she simply tied it up in the sun and left it there until Hong Yu pitifully begged for mercy or complained to Lin Manman.

Amber and Xiaoqi were browsing the internet while fiddling with Lin Manman's bracelet when they saw Hongyu being taught a lesson by Yinyue once again, and they both gave her a look that said, "You deserve it."

Lin Manman mourned for Hongyu for a minute. Even Xiaoqi, who had the best temper, thought it deserved it, so it really did deserve it!

When Lin Ruochen came in, Ruyi asked to return to the pet space, leaving only the Honey Badger and its pet Ah-Dai sitting on the side, intently watching the battle video.
