Water World Beast Taming: My Pets Can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 179 Ironclad Dragon Shark Island Turtle [4200 words]

Led by Jiang Henian, Jiang Chen and his group of five headed towards the beacon tower of the main city of the underwater Great Wall in the southern border.

As soon as the six of them stepped out of the training ground, they saw a large number of students outside, all pointing and whispering about Jiang Chen and his group of five.

"It seems these are the five people selected for this secret realm exploration."

"Being among the first to enter the secret realm for exploration is such a blessing! We'll be able to obtain a wealth of cultivation resources!"

"Don't get too excited, the first batch of people to enter are also likely to be killed!"

"How can a beast tamer cultivate without getting injured and bleeding? Don't we also risk our lives when we go into the desolate sea to do missions?"

"That makes sense, but the danger of an unknown secret realm is incomparable to that of the desolate sea!"

"Yu Sheng and Yu Ning have indeed been selected. They are very suitable for this kind of secret realm with combat power restrictions."

"Teacher Lei San went too. It seems that Teacher Lei San is the teacher leading the team."

"Teacher Lei San truly deserves the title, mastering both beast taming and body refinement!"

"Huh? Who's that unfamiliar face at the back of the line? Which class is he in, a senior? Is he on the leaderboard with over 100 battles? I've never seen him before."

As one of the four top academies in the Dragon Kingdom, Yingtian Academy has a large number of students who are fond of war. Therefore, they were selected as the first batch to enter the secret realm. Although the danger was great, most students still did not hesitate to go!

This is why so many people have come to the martial arts arena today; no one wants to be second best and wants to know who has been chosen.

Looking at the selected students, Yu Sheng, Yu Ning, and Chen Shou all had no objections.

After all, these three are all on the school's top 3 list, with outstanding combat power and strength, and are often ranked in the top ten.

However, when everyone saw Jiang Chen in the arena, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Some of the third- and fourth-year students were even more confused. Who is this person? What's his name? I don't recognize him.

"I know him, this person is Jiang Chen!"

"Last year's winner in the freshman typhoon competition, Freshman King!"

These two sentences caused quite a stir among those around them!

So what if Jiang Chen is the new king?

These days, the highest level of all the freshmen is only a level two Beastmaster, right?

Sending a level-two beast tamer into the secret realm is practically suicide.

Jiang Chen felt somewhat embarrassed looking at the noisy surroundings. This really wasn't something he wanted to do; he was just arranged to come in…

On the way, Jiang Chen also saw some familiar faces.

Geng Zhen, Shi Shan, and Zhang Caiying, all former classmates from Ningshui Town High School, were also staring at Jiang Chen with blank expressions.

Xie Enze and Jin Yue, both outstanding freshmen, were also somewhat dumbfounded.

Zhao Ziyi, who also practiced the same cultivation system, stood by the roadside with a completely expressionless face.

He couldn't help but rub his eyes, even doubting that he was seeing things...

"..." Jiang Chen.

"Ahem, let's hurry up!"

Jiang Henian, who was walking at the front, did not expect Jiang Chen to cause such a big commotion. He released a powerful spiritual force and dragged everyone into the air, quickly flying towards the underwater Great Wall in the southern border, leaving the crowd in a daze.

……

In mid-air, Jiang Chen looked embarrassed, while Yu Sheng and Yu Ning seemed to be gloating.

Yu Sheng patted his girlfriend's hand and said earnestly, "Yu Ning, as beast tamers, the most important thing is still our own strength, right?"

Yu Ning glanced at Jiang Chen and chuckled, saying, "Of course, but no matter how thick the iron shield is, I can shatter it with a single punch!"

Jiang Chen sighed softly; he was clearly being misunderstood as having used connections.

The drawbacks of using connections are also obvious, especially in this world of beast taming where strength reigns supreme. If you try to squeeze in without the necessary strength, you will only incur the resentment and contempt of your teammates.

Senior Brother Lei San was about to speak up to exonerate Jiang Chen, but Jiang Henian looked at Lei San and shook his head slightly.

The meaning is simple: let Jiang Chen face this small setback on his own!

He may be a genius, but he still has to bear and overcome the hardships he deserves.

No rainbow appears without wind and rain.

In the same beast tamer team, it is very important to eliminate the barriers between teammates.

The most crucial character here is Jiang Chen, not the other two.

At this moment, Jiang Henian and Lei San could certainly speak up to help Jiang Chen get out of trouble, but what would happen after the two of them were gone?

This is similar to the mission Jiang Chen and Li Qing went to the White Tail Pearl-Cultivating Pool before. Jiang Chen could only gain the recognition of his teammates through his own efforts.

Their forceful intervention not only failed to gain Yu Sheng and Yu Ning's approval of Jiang Chen, but also made them more resentful of him, leading to disunity within the team.

In the group, Jiang Chen glanced at Yu Sheng and Yu Ning, but remained silent.

Having lived two lives, he's incredibly thick-skinned; he wouldn't take such indifferent words to heart.

Soon, the group of six arrived at the main city's beacon tower.

Jiang Henian led five people to the main city gate tower and found Sima Yuan and Yan Chao in a conference room.

Wearing magnificent armor, with a square face and a profound aura, Yan Chao nodded slightly upon seeing Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen quickly nodded in greeting: "Greetings, General Yan, General Sima!"

Lei San and his three companions also saluted respectfully: "Greetings, General Yan, General Sima!"

After exchanging a few words with Sima Yuan, Yan Chao walked over and said, "Don't be shy, come with me!"

"The other candidates for entering the Azure Island Secret Realm tomorrow have been selected. Get to know them."

"yes!"

Yan Chao immediately led the six people to another conference room next to the main conference room. At this time, a large amount of first-hand information about the Qingyu Secret Realm was displayed in the center of the conference room, and four beast tamers with considerable auras were also sitting in the conference room.

Upon seeing Yan Chao lead his men in, the four men immediately stood up and saluted.

"Everyone, please sit down," Yan Chao said without further ado, pointing to the four people in the conference room and introducing them: "These four are the team leaders who will be entering the Qingyu Secret Realm tomorrow."

Yan Chao immediately pointed to the first man near the door: "This is Long Shijie, and his pet is the [Ironclad Dragon Shark]. Tomorrow he will lead a 13-person beast-taming team, whose pets are also Ironclad Dragon Sharks."

Yan Chao pointed to the second man: "This is Zhang Shanfeng, and his pet is an Island Turtle. Tomorrow he will lead a 13-person beast-taming team, whose pets are Shielded Leatherback Turtles."

The third person was a woman: "This is Lian Wei, and her pet is a [Ghost Eye Fish]. Tomorrow, she will lead a team of 10 people, all with [Ghost Eye Fish] as their pets."

The fourth person is also a woman: "This is Wu Yao, and her pet beast is [Hai Pu Ying]. Tomorrow she will lead a five-person beast-taming team, whose pet beast is [Hai Pu Ying]."

13, 13, 10, 5, plus four squad leaders, 45 people are here!

As Jiang Chen listened to Yan Chao's introduction, he couldn't help but be slightly amazed!

The Southern Underwater Wall has indeed deployed its elite forces for tomorrow's exploration of the secret realm!

Ironclad Dragon Shark: A powerful shark-type pet!

In the extraordinary water world, shark-type pets can be said to be born kings. No matter what kind of shark it is, the pet's bloodline is at least at the commander level!

The Ironclad Dragon Shark is no ordinary creature; it's one of the best among shark-type pets.

Moreover, these pet eggs and cubs are extremely difficult to breed. As far as Jiang Chen knows, the Dragon Kingdom is currently unable to breed such pets on a large scale.

They almost all rely on obtaining pet eggs and cubs in the desolate sea, and then bringing them back to raise them carefully.

Moreover, there are no Ironclad Dragon Shark sea creatures in the Southern Wilderness Sea. To obtain one, one would have to go to a more distant and deeper part of the wilderness, which further increases the rarity and value of the Ironclad Dragon Shark pet.

This time, the Southern Beast Taming Legion dispatched 14 beast tamers who possessed Ironclad Dragon Sharks. They must have used their last reserves!

If the Ironclad Dragon Shark is considered rare, then the other captain Zhang Shanfeng's [Island Turtle] is extremely rare!

The Island Turtle pet, like Jiang Chen's Seven-Star Knife Fish, is a super top-tier pet, the kind that is extremely rare and hard to come by.

Whether you can meet someone or form a contract depends entirely on luck.

Island tortoise, as its name suggests.

As this pet grows and levels up, its size will gradually expand and grow larger, eventually reaching the size of an island!

Therefore, the island tortoise's defense is at the very top of the pyramid among pets of the same level.

Zhang Shanfeng's [Shielded Leatherback Turtle] squad also boasts impressive defensive capabilities!

Next up is Lian Wei's [Ghost Eye Fish]. This fish has a very distinctive feature: one eye is very large, almost taking up half of the fish's head.

The fish's eyes were scarlet, as red as blood.

【Ghost Eye Fish】is a spirit-type, water-type pet. It excels at spirit attacks, creating illusions, and sensing detection, thus filling a gap in the team.

Besides its ability to launch mental attacks with its eyes, the Ghost Eye Fish also possesses powerful pupil techniques, namely clairvoyance and X-ray vision, which can be quite effective when exploring secret realms.

Finally, there is the [Sea Dandelion] pet. This pet looks like a combination of animal and plant. It looks like a dandelion, but it is an animal in essence.

【Hai Pu Ying】, a light-type pet, can cast healing spells to heal the team.

At this point, the framework of the entire team was established.

The Ironclad Dragon Shark is responsible for attacking, the Shielded Leatherback Turtle is responsible for defense, the Sea Pea is responsible for healing, and the Ghost Eye Fish is responsible for mental attacks and detecting the surrounding environment.

The four teams looked out for each other, cooperated with each other, and made up for each other's weaknesses. The arrangements were very well done.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but nod in approval. As expected of the military, they had managed to assemble a formidable team of beast tamers in such a short time.

Compared to them, the five people sent by Yingtian Academy were like a ragtag army, with no team composition whatsoever.

This is also the difference between individual beast tamers and military beast tamers.

Most of the beasts used by the army's beast tamers are allocated and trained uniformly by the state, so the trained beast tamers can cooperate with each other and form alliances.

However, individual beast tamers place greater emphasis on the strength and completeness of their personal abilities.

The minimum skill level of a military beastmaster is relatively high, but the maximum skill level is relatively low.

The lower limit of an individual beast tamer can be very low, but the upper limit can be very high, which is something that military beast tamers cannot match.

After Yan Chao introduced the four team leaders, Lei San and his group of five immediately followed suit and introduced themselves.

In tomorrow's secret realm exploration, the army will be the main force, with Lei San and five others as support. When faced with some major decisions, Lei San and Long Shijie will discuss them together.

Sure enough, after hearing about the strength and pets of Lei San and his group of four, Long Shijie and the other three were also slightly shocked.

These five people all have very strong pets!

If it were a one-on-one fight, the four captains might not necessarily be able to defeat them.

but……

After listening to Jiang Chen's self-introduction, the four soldiers were all puzzled.

Yes, the Seven-Star Knife Fish is indeed very strong, arguably the sharpest knife in the world!

However, the Seven-Star Knife Fish is only at the mid-stage of the Extraordinary Realm. That level is too low. What role can it play in the secret realm tomorrow?

Immediately, everyone in the room turned their attention to Jiang Henian, the person in charge of Yingtian Academy.

"General Yan, may I have a word with you?" Jiang He cleared his throat and said to Yan Chao.

"it is good."

Outside the conference room.

"Principal Jiang, are the people from [Haixinge] sure they haven't made a mistake?" Yan Chao couldn't help but ask as he walked out of the conference room.

Jiang Henian shook his head slightly and took out a seashell from his hand, which was engraved with a large number of mysterious formations.

Yan Chao took the shell and injected a stream of spiritual energy into it. Instantly, the magic array on the shell was activated. After a quick count, he saw that there were as many as eighteen magic arrays on it!

Yan Chao was not surprised and released another burst of spiritual energy.

The moment mental energy touched these eighteen magic arrays, they automatically disintegrated.

This is a very special, exclusive seashell. It will only open automatically if the spiritual energy and mental energy imprints recorded on the seashell are both correct.

This seashell from the [Haixin Pavilion] only records the spiritual power and mental energy of three people: Jiang Henian, Yan Chao, and Sima Yuan.

Yan Chao channeled his mental energy again, fully unlocking the shell, and a phantom immediately appeared inside.

It was a beautiful woman wearing a cat-face mask. Her voice was ethereal and light as she spoke softly, "In exchange for helping to open the Qingyu Secret Realm, we request that someone be sent in. This person is Jiang Chen, a freshman at Yingtian Academy."

After the phantom finished speaking, it automatically shattered and vanished into the void.

Yan Chao, with his square face, stared at the void in front of him with a deep frown. The illusory figure just now was a screenshot of his spiritual energy.

Yan Chao had met this envoy from Haixin Pavilion before, so he could tell at a glance that this segment of spiritual power belonged to the other party.

"Sending a level three beast tamer in is really strange," Yan Chao said after a while, rubbing his brow.

Jiang Henian also sighed softly, "Yes, Jiang Chen is my disciple. If I could, I wouldn't want to send him in either."

"However, this is Haixin Pavilion's request, and I cannot refuse."

"Fortunately, the team has a full 50 people this time. One more or less Jiang Chen is just as good!"

"Never mind," Yan Chao shook his head slightly, "This general will have them do their best to protect Jiang Chen."

"Thank you, General Yan."

Yan Chao shook his head and smiled wryly: "This kid just formed a contract with the offspring of my pet beast. He can't just be sacrificed on the front lines in the blink of an eye, can he? How am I supposed to explain this to my pet beast companion?"

"However, if protecting Jiang Chen conflicts with carrying out the mission, I will still instruct my soldiers to prioritize the mission!"

"Of course, I thank General Yan again on behalf of my disciple!" Jiang Henian said sincerely once more.

With Yan Chao's words, Jiang Chen's journey to the secret realm will be much easier this time!
