Is it difficult to evolve your beast?

How to break the deadlock in Chapter 5?

"Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng, why didn't you reply to the messages in the group last night?" A girl stood in front of Jiang Feng.

Back then, most of the people in her class changed their attitudes after her failed attempt to awaken. After being heartbroken for a while, she cut off contact with most of them.

Now, ten years have passed—

She couldn't quite remember who the person in front of her was.

"He's about to become a beast tamer, so naturally he doesn't want to bother with you," a male classmate said from the side.

Jiang Feng looked over there. The male classmate was wearing new clothes, probably some designer brand, otherwise he wouldn't have left the tags on to show off.

"Now she's all arrogant. Let's see what she does when she can't awaken!"

Xu Lei, the one who died while catching his first phantom beast right after awakening, and who was wearing clothes with the tags still on, stood ominously to the side.

Last night, after Jiang Feng ignored what he said, he was so angry that he couldn't sleep all night.

He cursed Jiang Feng in his heart, thinking, "He really is a motherless wretch, with no manners at all!"

"Xu Lei's parents are both Beast Tamers, right? He should be able to awaken his power successfully too!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Lei glanced at Jiang Feng before 'modestly' replying, "Not necessarily. It's just that if the parents are beast tamers, their children are more likely to become beast tamers themselves."

"However, thank you all for your kind words. If I become a Beast Tamer, I will definitely treat you all to a meal at the best restaurant in Jinyang City!"

He used to be a prominent figure, but ever since he entered this junior high school, Jiang Feng has stolen all the limelight from him.

"You're too modest, Xu Lei!"

"Yes, yes, unlike some people who start calling themselves beast tamers before the tests have even begun!"

Jiang Feng stood to the side, glancing indifferently at the person who spoke in a roundabout and sarcastic manner. The Gray Cloud Wolf beside him also stood up and took two steps forward.

The person who had been so arrogant just moments before fell silent instantly, staggering backward while his lips moved as if he were muttering curses under his breath.

Having a fourth-tier gray cloud wolf is nothing special. If you can't awaken it later, let's see how arrogant you'll be!

Inside the gymnasium, more and more people arrived, and the homeroom teachers of each class also arrived at the scene at this time.

"All students and parents who have come to observe the ceremony, please go to the stands and take your seats. Please do not linger in the testing area so as not to affect the students' awakening."

"Please, everyone..."

A mechanical voice came from the loudspeaker, and Gray Cloud Wolf looked up at Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng led the Gray Cloud Wolf toward the stands, and along the way, many people looked at her.

Within Jinyang City, there may not be many people who know Jiang Feng, but quite a few know of the existence of the Gray Cloud Wolf and the two great heroes who saved Jinyang City ten years ago.

The Gray Cloud Wolf is the only mythical beast in the history of human beast taming that survived after its master's death.

"That must be Jiang Feng, right?"

"Yeah, that gray cloud wolf looks really good. If she could awaken as a beast tamer and directly form a contract with that gray cloud wolf, wouldn't she immediately become a fourth-tier beast tamer?"

Some people wore expressions of envy.

It should be noted that many people spend their entire lives without ever obtaining a fourth-tier mythical beast.

"How could that be? Having a fourth-tier magical beast doesn't make you a fourth-tier beast tamer. What determines a beast tamer's rank is the number of times they open the magical beast space gate."

"Opening the portal to the Beast Taming Space once grants you your own Beast Taming Space, making you a Tier 1 Beast Tamer. Opening it again afterwards is required to become a Tier 2 Beast Tamer!"

Hearing what those people were saying, Jiang Feng looked down at the Gray Cloud Wolf following beside her, a smile in her eyes.

At this moment, the Gray Cloud Wolf wagged its tail, seemingly understanding Jiang Feng's gaze.

"Uncle Wolf, wait for me here." Finding a place with a relatively open view, Jiang Feng loosened the rope in his hands.

The gray cloud wolf responded with a howl.

Jiang Feng turned his head, took a step, and then stopped.

She turned around, squatted down, stretched out her hands, hugged the gray cloud wolf, and took a deep breath.

It will be different, it definitely will be different, right?

"Please all students return to the testing area. The test will begin shortly after the principal's speech!"

Gray Cloud Wolf nudged Jiang Feng, signaling her to hurry down.

Jiang Feng raised his head, smiled at the Gray Cloud Wolf, and said, "I'm going."

She slowly stood up, her smile gradually turning into determination.

Step by step, Jiang Feng walked down the stands, his pace quickening and becoming more relaxed.

Having already died once, there's nothing I can't face!

"Since the resurgence of spiritual energy eighty years ago, our world has faced a tremendous catastrophe..."

The principal appeared on a temporary platform erected in the center of the indoor stadium.

"Ferocious beasts broke through the Illusionary Realm and entered our world, plunging humanity into endless battles."

"Until sixty years ago, pioneers among humans opened the Beast Realm in a desperate situation, and humanity found the possibility of fighting against ferocious beasts."

"Thus begins the era of Beast Tamers!"

The eyes of everyone in the audience lit up at that moment. They seemed to see that tragic yet magnificent scene, and they seemed to see the figures of their ancestors fighting bloody battles against the ferocious beasts.

Before Jiang Feng's eyes appeared the smiling faces of her parents, the image of her mother gently stroking her head, and her father holding her hand.

She lowered her head, trying to hide her momentary lapse in concentration.

On stage, after a brief recounting of history, the principal began to narrate matters related to beast tamers.

"Every point I'm about to make is crucial, and I hope you will listen carefully."

All the ninth graders raised their heads and stared intently at the principal.

Only Jiang Feng's gaze was fixed on the machines used to test mental strength next to the principal.

Based on years of research, it has been found that only those with a mental strength level of D or higher have the possibility of opening the Beast Space.

If someone below level D forcibly touches the Illusion Stone and attempts to open the Illusion Beast Space, it may cause their mental sea to shatter, turning them into an idiot.

In her previous life, her mental strength level was tested as E, which disqualified her from touching the Illusion Stone.

A beast tamer can only open up a magical beast space if they come into contact with magical stones or when facing a life-or-death situation.

Jiang Feng clenched his fists.

She remembered that before she died, besides seeing the light emanating from the pendant on her chest, she also seemed to see a door, but at that time she no longer had the strength to open that door.

If she already possessed the talent of a beast tamer, then someone must have tampered with the test.

Because the magic stone is extremely precious, and only one was allocated to their school, there was almost no possibility of it being tampered with.

As long as her mental strength level does not reach D, she is not qualified to come into contact with the Illusion Stone. As an ordinary person, the possibility of encountering a life-threatening situation is extremely low. In her previous life, before being sent to the battlefield, she was not only living a smooth life, but at least her life was safe.

So, did someone tamper with her test data? Or did they use some other method to fix her test results at level E or below?

Jiang Feng's breathing became slightly rapid.

What should we do? How can we break this deadlock?
