Is it difficult to evolve your beast?

Chapter 4 Getting Used to Guarding

Jiang Feng glanced into the group and found it rather amusing.

She was twenty-five years old when she died in her previous life.

In other words, she is now ten years older than the people in the group in terms of mental age.

Those provocations and sarcastic remarks seemed more like children playing house to her.

At least, saying a few words in the group doesn't cause her any real harm.

Moreover, Jiang Feng still remembered the guy who said she looked down on everyone, the one who used the name "Xu Lei" in the group.

This person awakened to become a Beast Tamer, but died while taming his first magical beast.

A person lacks strength but has lofty ambitions, dreaming of obtaining an exceptionally powerful mythical beast, only to die under its hooves in the end.

She naturally had no need to argue with a dead person. She would rather spend that time watching the news, since she had been reborn from ten years in the future and everything was somewhat unfamiliar to her now.

She also really wanted to see what happened ten years ago again...

In her previous life, she didn't find anything strange about her parents' deaths. As an ordinary person, apart from not being able to become a beast tamer, her life was pretty good.

But the time before her rebirth felt like someone was forcing her to die.

At that time, Zhang Ran was only a third-level beast tamer and a small team leader in Jinyang City. He shouldn't have had the right to send an ordinary person to the battlefield.

Who else is behind him?

Who is it that wants to kill her?

And then there was that sentence Zhang Ran said before he died in his previous life: "Don't you really want to know how your parents died?"

Yes, she really wanted to know, really wanted to know why!

"Uncle Wolf, why do you think this is?" Jiang Feng looked down at the Gray Cloud Wolf who was lying down next to him with its eyes closed, resting.

She and her parents were just ordinary people.

When I was a child, my father served in the army in Jinyang City, but he was just an ordinary junior officer.

My mother also runs a pet shop at home, providing grooming services such as "wash, cut and blow-dry" for small, harmless pets kept by various families, as well as the pets of beast tamers.

Aside from receiving more red flowers than other children when she was in kindergarten, there was nothing particularly special about her.

After hearing what she said, the gray cloud wolf only pricked up one ear before drooping it back down.

Jiang Feng gripped the pendant on his chest.

Could it be because of it?

Jiang Feng shook his head and looked outside.

The rain had stopped falling as heavily as before, but it was still drizzling.

The awakening ceremony will take place tomorrow, so I need to rest well today. No matter what, I should always have something to look forward to tomorrow.

Jiang Feng took the lunchbox out to wash it clean, returned to his room, walked to the bedside, and said to Gray Cloud Wolf, "Goodnight, Uncle Wolf."

The gray cloud wolf also roared at her.

Jiang Feng lay in bed, expecting her chaotic thoughts to keep her awake all night, but unexpectedly, as soon as her head touched the pillow, sleepiness involuntarily washed over her.

I slept without any dreams.

The rain had stopped early the next morning, and a rare rainbow appeared in the sky.

Inside the small attic, the girl, wearing a T-shirt printed with a cartoon fox mythical beast, stretched.

Beside her stood a gray cloud wolf with silver fur and white stripes on its head, like the most loyal guard.

The girl had just woken up in the morning, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her dark eyes reflected the window's shadow, making them appear even brighter than the window itself.

Jiang Feng walked to the window, opened it, and a gentle breeze blew in, causing the girl's soft hair to flutter in the wind.

"Uncle Wolf, come to school with me?" Jiang Feng picked up a carton of milk, tore off a corner, and put it in his mouth.

On this day, all students participating in the awakening will invite important family members to attend the ceremony.

Awakening Day is the most important day in everyone's life. Since it is the most important day in life, it is natural to have the closest people witness it.

Gray Cloud Wolf naturally wouldn't refuse Jiang Feng on such a trivial matter. Besides, as a wolf, it naturally enjoys going out for walks.

Without Jiang Feng saying anything, it took out its leash and ran to Jiang Feng's side, asking him to put it on.

This is a leash specially made for the Gray Cloud Wolf by the Jin Yang City Beast Research Institute. Once it's on, the wolf can't use its abilities.

After all, Jiang Feng was not the master of the Gray Cloud Wolf. A phantom beast without a master was not allowed to appear inside the city walls.

However, given the special circumstances of Gray Cloud Wolf and Jiang Feng, Jin Yang City made special arrangements to allow Jiang Feng to take Gray Cloud Wolf out with him.

The neighbors were all familiar with them, and when they saw the gray cloud wolves on a leash, they greeted them warmly.

"Xiao Feng, I heard today is the day your school is giving all the ninth graders their awakening test. Good luck!"

"Thank you, Aunt Zhang!"

"Xiao Feng, your Xiao Hui helped Auntie catch some mice a few days ago. Auntie's making big bones today, remember to have Xiao Hui come and get them later!"

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Li!"

After answering, Jiang Feng looked thoughtfully at the Gray Cloud Wolf.

The gray cloud wolf avoided her gaze, turning its head away.

"Little Wind, Little Wind, wait!"

Another elderly woman ran up to me on the street, holding two eggs: "These are freshly boiled eggs from home! Take them and eat them; eating these eggs will make your day's awakening complete and perfect!"

"Thank you, Grandma Wang." Jiang Feng accepted the eggs. She had experienced similar things in her previous life, but she was too young then and didn't feel anything.

Now, experiencing it all again, seeing everyone's gaze, Jiang Feng's eyes couldn't help but well up with tears.

Although she had no parents, she grew up under the care of her neighbors.

The sky seemed to have become a little clearer. Jiang Feng, with Gray Cloud Wolf, squeezed onto the bus and finished eating the eggs that Grandma Wang had given him.

Is it perfectly complete?

It will definitely happen in this lifetime!

Gray Cloud Wolf was very popular on this bus. Its fur was ruffled and people praised it for being majestic and cute.

It has become accustomed to these things over the past ten years.

After all, starting ten years ago, its purpose was no longer to fight alongside its master, but to protect, to guard its master's treasures.

Gray Cloud Wolf tilted its head and looked at the girl sitting by the window.

The bus stopped at the school gate, and as soon as Jiang Feng got off, many people looked in her direction.

"Is that Jiang Feng from Class One?"

"I heard her parents are both very skilled beast tamers. If she awakens her powers and becomes a beast tamer herself, she should be incredibly powerful too, right?"

People around him pointed and whispered about Jiang Feng, many with envy in their eyes.

After all, Jiang Feng had been a prominent figure at their school since he entered.

She not only excelled academically, but also had parents who were hailed as great heroes of Jinyang City.

Beside her was a gray cloud wolf, which was said to be a fourth-tier phantom beast!

A fourth-tier mythical beast! How enviable!

"You'd better get along well with them." Some parents start nagging their children.

"It's not certain if she can! What if she can't awaken it?"

"So what if she can't awaken? Having more friends means having more options. Isn't she the top student in your whole school? Even if she can't become a Beast Tamer, she still has a bright future!"

Jiang Feng was no longer affected by the surrounding gossip. She calmly led the Gray Cloud Wolf to the school's indoor stadium.

The students in the class huddled together, chattering away. When they saw Jiang Feng arrive, they all stopped talking and looked in his direction.
