Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

"It seems Professor Yan's strength has fully recovered. If you had said so earlier, this whole mess wouldn't have happened..."

"And Big Black, don't be so mean to me, we're all acquaintances."

"There's no need to make it like this."

Zhou Feng spoke softly, first glancing at Professor Yan, then at the shadowy weaver behind him.

"Hmph..." Professor Yan sneered, his tone gloomy, "If you can't speak properly, then shut up. This old man probably won't live for many more years. Who dares to make me unhappy?"

"I'll kill whoever I want, and you'll be no exception..."

"If you know what's good for you, don't try to provoke me..."

At this moment, President Li walked to Chi Hong's side and explained in a low voice, "Ever since the teacher came out of that forbidden area, he has been researching how to re-enter. You should know that truly terrifying forbidden areas require certain methods to enter. Professor Yan went to that forbidden area using coordinates from a notebook..."

"It's extremely dangerous. Although he has given up on the idea of ​​entering again, he still wants to pinpoint the location of that forbidden area in space and time."

Chi Hong was taken aback. Of course he knew what that forbidden area was. It was the dangerous place where his grandfather and parents had been trapped. It was only natural that Professor Yan, who had been there once and narrowly escaped death, would not want to go again.

After all, Professor Yan himself just said that he probably doesn't have many years left to live.

As for why he still needed to study the spacetime coordinates of that forbidden area, Chi Hong didn't need to think about it; it was for his own sake.

I absolutely have to go to that place!

"Professor Yan, Old Zhou... is dying."

Zhou Feng glanced at Professor Zhou, who was kneeling motionless on the ground, relying entirely on that big fat worm to slow down the deterioration of his wounds, and looked at Professor Yan with a troubled expression.

"I told you, you're late."

"No, that's not right. Even if you had been here from the beginning, do you think you could have stopped this old man?"

Professor Yan said coldly, showing no respect for the principal. Zhou Feng was not angry; she simply nodded slightly, a smile on her face.

"Professor Yan, although I am not entirely clear on the details of what happened."

"But I'd like to apologize to you on behalf of Mr. Zhou..."

Zhou Feng's tone was very humble, and she immediately offered an apology.

"They both have the surname Zhou. Is it a coincidence, or are they related to that Professor Zhou?" Chi Hong looked at President Li with a strange expression, then looked at Asagi. If they were related, then good, they'd become enemies!

If I'm a sworn enemy of Bao, I can't stay in this university.

Asagiri was fiddling with her phone and didn't notice Chi Hong at all. She sent a brief message to the captain about what had just happened.

As long as a Beast Tamer of Super A Rank doesn't do anything particularly heinous or cause widespread damage or impact, the law enforcement team is unwilling to engage in conflict with such a Beast Tamer.

This has led to the fact that the law enforcement team doesn't have much prestige in the eyes of even relatively strong A-level beast tamers, let alone super A-level beast tamers. Only beast tamers like Lin Xia, who have a lot of assets but haven't yet reached super A-level strength, are afraid of the law enforcement team's investigation.

Of course, all of these premises are based on the premise that you cannot kill law enforcement officers in broad daylight!

Clearly, Chi Hong had done it both day and night...

"this...."

"I'm not entirely sure either, but they're all professors at the school, part of the teaching staff. The principal certainly wouldn't want an experienced beast tamer like Professor Zhou to die, right?"

"After all, beast tamers are unwilling to teach students these days."

"Not to mention universities. The more beast tamers there are at the professor level, the more secure their position in the education system becomes..."

Mr. Li shared his insights, and Chi Hong nodded in agreement. He was right; the more experienced professors there were, the better!

"Hmph..."

"It's good that you know you were wrong, so how about compensation?"

Professor Yan continued to sneer. He had clearly killed Professor Zhou, and the matter should have ended there, but he still demanded compensation.

None of the people Zhou Feng brought dared to speak, as if they were just there to watch the show.

"........."

"I have a Soul-Gathering Fruit in my personal possession, and I'm taking it out as an apology."

Zhou Feng looked calmly at Professor Yan, then glanced at Chi Hong, and spoke softly.

Professor Yan stood still and didn't say anything, seemingly waiting for her to continue. Since Professor Yan didn't respond, Chi Hong naturally couldn't jump out and speak either.

After all, he was standing up for him. In fact, Chi Hong himself did not expect that Professor Zhou's matter would escalate to this point.

He had thought that Professor Yan would help him, but he didn't expect Professor Yan to react so strongly, almost like a tabby cat with its fur standing on end. The degree of his stress was even greater than his own. He had to admit that his own mother's teacher was quite reliable.

"That...."

"Chi Hong is, after all, a freshman. I'll make a special application for him and allow him to participate in the upcoming secret realm exploration activities. Professor Yan, are you satisfied with this arrangement?"

Zhou Feng made another demand, and kept glancing at Professor Zhou; he was already at his breaking point!

The big fat worm is now almost shriveled up...

"Um...."

"Can."

Professor Yan nodded, seemingly satisfied.

"But Principal Zhou, Professor Yan, the team for the upcoming secret realm exploration activity is already complete, a total of 8 people."

"That secret realm can only accommodate a maximum of 6 students, because one teacher must accompany them and another teacher must guard the entrance and exit in case of any accidents. The secret realm is not absolutely safe either."

Beside Zhou Feng, a middle-aged faculty member frowned and reminded him that if a student were to be squeezed out of the class, it would inevitably cause his dissatisfaction. The six students selected this time all had some connections behind them, and none of them were from ordinary backgrounds.

"It's nothing." Zhou Feng shook her head, pointed to Deng Jiahao who was standing to the side looking completely invisible, and said, "Take him off the court and let Chi Hong take over."

"Huh? Me?" Deng Jiahao looked shocked and pointed to his face.

"Do you have any objections?"

Zhou Feng asked coldly, his only connection being Professor Zhou, whose very survival was now uncertain...

"No... I have no objection. I will follow the school's arrangements."

Deng Jiahao sighed helplessly and replied, then mentally complained about his teacher, Professor Zhou, a thousand times over.

"Chi Hong, President Li, let's go."

"And that girl from the Chao family, since you're already here, let me treat you to a meal."

Professor Yan turned his face, his expression instantly changing, and said in a kind tone.

"Okay, thank you in advance, Professor Yan." Asagiri nodded and did not refuse.

Chi Hong was secretly pleased. Although Professor Yan had put on a show this time, he had to admit that experience still mattered!

After Professor Yan and his group left, Zhou Feng immediately summoned four pet beasts with a gloomy face. They released some kind of aura towards Professor Zhou, and the wound on Professor Zhou's chest began to heal and the poison began to fade.

"Professor Yan, after recovering from your injuries, your strength has improved even further. You should just retire peacefully from now on and never show your face in Jinling again."

"You can't afford to mess with him, and neither can I..."

Zhou Feng offered words of advice in a low voice, which on the surface was advice, but in reality it was a complaint against him.

"hateful..."

"Wait for me...wait for me to find my chance...I'll definitely...make that little brat regret ever being born!"

Professor Zhou seemed to regain his senses and spoke in a venomous tone.

As soon as he finished speaking, to everyone's stunned gaze, Professor Zhou's shadow actually stood up!

"I heard you..."

"I heard you..."

A huge, grotesque face emerged from the shadow, repeating the same phrase!

"Oh no!"

"It's Professor Yan's pet beast, Night Patrol!!"

Just as Zhou Feng let out this exclamation, the strange, shadow-like pet beast called Night Patrol opened its bizarre maw and bit Professor Zhou's head, crushing it in one bite. The crushed contents scattered like ink on the ground and disappeared.

Professor Zhou's shadow returned to normal, but he himself was dead.

Yan Qing never intended for him to live today. He came here to kill Professor Zhou!
