Beast Taming Begins with the Inner Circle of Pets

Chapter 167 "A Mother's Strength"

Lin Manman walked towards the training ground with a heavy heart, just as Lin Ruochen returned.

The boss's loud, cheerful voice rang out, "Big Sister, you and he are both level four. He's smarter than you, so it's a good idea to make him your Beastmaster."

"Awooo..."

"That's not right. Who told you that being strong means you don't need to use your brain?"

"Come on, let's have a fight first. I'll teach you what 'a mother's strength is' really about!"

Lin Manman was startled. What? "A mother's love is strong"? Is this boss a woman and pregnant??

Wait a minute, Gao Zhixian didn't say that.

Startled, she quickly ran over to see what was going on.

When she arrived, Lin Ruochen was holding his forehead, trembling with suppressed laughter.

Lin Manman looked again at the training field and saw that her boss had transformed into a metallic panda.

Ah... is this what they mean by "a mother's strength is boundless"?

In the future, besides training it, will she also have to teach it not to misuse human idioms?

"Where did you find such a lively character?" Lin Ruochen couldn't help but laugh when he saw her arrive.

"It talks so much, it hasn't stopped since I got back."

"I gave it the snacks I brought for you, and it tried to persuade Tiger Girl for me. Hmm, it's quite helpful."

Lin Manman covered her face, then told him about how she made a contract with the boss that day as a joke.

"With such great potential, just bear with it. I think with this little guy by your side, your life will definitely not be boring in the future." Lin Ruochen laughed heartily after hearing this.

On the training field, Lin Manman's other spirit beasts were all training on their own. The Honey Badger and Ah Dai were chasing Pi Pi around like crazy, while Rainbow Jade and Silver Moon were tearing each other apart again.

Under Xiao Qi's guidance, Amber practiced controlling the flames.

Seeing that the eldest beast and Tiger Girl were fighting, the other beasts also stopped and looked over.

"Watch closely, my next move is a left punch..." The leader quickly approached Tiger Girl, still yelling.

When Tiger Girl saw it rushing towards her and raising its left paw as if to attack, it instinctively dodged to the right.

Before it could dodge, the boss retracted its left paw and swung its right paw to slap its tiger head.

"Haha, this is called a feint! Now I'm going to attack the right side!" The leader raised his right claw again, as if to attack.

This time, Tiger Girl ignored its words and dodged to the right again.

Then the boss smacked him on the head with a metal bear paw. "Haha, that's called turning a fake into a real thing!"

Lin Manman and Lin Ruochen exchanged a glance; one was speechless, while the other was laughing so hard she couldn't stand up straight.

"You iron-eating beast are quite knowledgeable, knowing so many idioms."

Lin Manman was already numb. How could this guy talk trash while fighting?

And who taught it all these idioms?!

It dares to use anything, whether it's usable or not!

Tiger Girl was stunned by the blow and flew into a rage, spreading her wings to take flight.

Upon seeing its reaction, the leader immediately stopped attacking and began to chatter incessantly.

"Look at you, you big shot! Why are you getting so worked up over just playing around? I was just saying I'd teach you what wisdom is!"

Tiger Girl was confused again, so what? She decided not to fight anymore?

The boss was waiting for that moment of hesitation, then, "Aha, Mount Tai crushes you!!"

As it shouted, the entire metal bear leaped up and landed squarely on Tiger Girl's back.

Tiger Girl let out a mournful howl as it was slammed to the ground.

Lin Manman: ……

Lin Ruochen: ...

The other spirit pets: ...

Rainbow Jade's eyes sparkled as she looked at the boss, Honey Badger's jaw nearly dropped to the ground, Silver Moon hung her head as if deep in thought, and Amber squatted down with her two front paws wrapped around her head, as if she also felt that her brain wasn't working properly.

Pipi, looking completely calm, carried Ruyi, who was covering her eyes, while Xiaoqi, looking dazed, perched on Ruyi's head.

The leader ignored the other people and beasts who were already petrified, and sat on Tiger Girl's back, continuing his trash talk, "See? Can you feel the difference between fighting with your brain and fighting without your brain? Are you convinced?"

Tiger Girl was truly enraged this time. This beast was just as cunning as a human; it was utterly despicable!

It raised its head and let out a whistling sound containing a mental attack, but unfortunately, the leader sitting on its back pressed a paw on its head first, interrupting it.

The leader activated Stone Forest's skill, and several stone pillars rose from the ground, firmly binding Tiger Girl's head and limbs.

"Hey sis, your personality won't work. You're too impatient. You need to learn from me, the boss, to plan things out before you act!"

"But you don't have my wisdom, so you need a beast tamer to make up for your lack of intelligence."

Lin Ruochen, watching from the side, couldn't help but clap and praise, "Isn't your spirit pet's intelligence a bit too high?"

"Didn't I tell you? It has a talent of [super intelligence]. Although most spirit beasts have developed intelligence, their IQ is still not comparable to that of a ten-year-old human child."

"But it..." Lin Manman sighed with a headache. This guy's intelligence is already comparable to that of an adult, and according to Gao Zhixian, its intelligence may continue to grow as it grows.

Tiger Girl struggled for a long time but found that she couldn't break free at all. She was so angry that she was panting heavily. Finally, she saw Lin Ruochen watching the show from the side and quickly asked him for help.

Lin Ruochen raised an eyebrow. Not bad, she actually knew to ask him for help.

He glanced at Lin Manman, then leaned close to her ear and whispered, "You should get your boss to cooperate later."

Lin Manman was still frozen in place by the phrase "your boss," while Lin Ruochen slowly walked onto the field. He raised his hand to summon Tiger Girl back to the spirit beast space, and then summoned her out again.

"Boss, Tiger Girl can't beat you. Are you scared if we all come at her together?" Lin Ruochen stood in front of Tiger Girl, looking up at the metal panda standing on the stone pillar.

Lin Manman also realized what was happening, "Go for it, boss! I believe in you! I'll treat you to some extra pastries for supper later tonight!"

The leader, standing on high ground, waved arrogantly at Lin Manman, "Wait for the boss's victorious return!"

After saying that, he leaped up and charged towards Lin Ruochen and Hu Niu. Hu Niu also spread her wings and charged towards her boss. Lin Ruochen released a magic attack on the ground to assist Hu Niu.

This time, Tiger Girl stopped listening to the boss's trash talk, but she was still fooled by some of his feints.

Although Lin Ruochen could see some of it, his purpose was to create a common enemy and cooperate with Hu Niu in the battle, so he intentionally held back and prolonged the battle.

As the two sides traded blows, the battle, which had been deadlocked, suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse as the stronger side began to show signs of weakness.

With an exaggerated "Ouch!" from the eldest brother, he was slapped aside, his round body rolling to Lin Manman's feet, where he remained motionless.

Lin Ruochen and Hu Niu have won this battle.

Tiger Girl finally got her revenge and vented her anger. She saw that Lin Ruochen had been cooperating with her to fight the hateful beast and would remind it in time when it tried to do something bad.

At this point, it had to admit that only a Beastmaster could enable it to unleash its full combat power.

After figuring it out, it slowly walked up to Lin Ruochen, spread its wings, and lowered its tiger head to Lin Ruochen.

At this moment, Lin Ruochen finally gained Hu Niu's approval.

Lin Ruochen patted its head. "You've worked hard today too. I've prepared a lot of spirit beast meat for you. Come on, let's eat and then cultivate together."

Watching Lin Ruochen lead Hu Niu away, Lin Manman kicked the eldest brother on the ground, "They're far away now, you can wake up."

The eldest son scrambled to his feet, sat on the ground, and began to wail, "Ouch, ouch, it hurts so much!"

The naive Xiaoqi hurriedly stepped forward to perform the treatment.

"The physical wounds have healed, but the psychological wounds will take two desserts to heal." The eldest brother blinked his beady eyes at Lin Manman.

Lin Manman couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Buy it, buy it, I'll buy it for you tomorrow!"

"Let me ask you, are you really a mother bear? Why are you saying 'a mother is strong'?" Lin Manman couldn't help but complain when she remembered its misuse of idioms.

The eldest brother blinked and replied in a thick-sounding, middle-aged man's voice, "Yes, that's me."
