Is it difficult to evolve your beast?

Chapter 68 Coincidence?

"It's Sister Jiao." At this moment, Jiang Feng was holding a milk carton in one hand and a loaf of bread in the other.

Having just woken up, it's time to eat breakfast.

"Aunt Zhang, didn't Uncle Wolf eat too much yesterday? I'll have Sister Jiao come and check on him today."

Last night, the situation with the gray cloud wolf really gave Aunt Zhang's family a fright, as they had never encountered anything like it before.

As ordinary people, they don't have much contact with mythical beasts.

"You should have someone take a look at it. Little Grey was really scary last night! If you can't figure it out, you should take it to the hospital to get it checked out."

Upon hearing this, the gray cloud wolf merely let out a howl, its tail swaying behind it.

"Are they eating here for lunch today? Why isn't the one outside coming in?"

Aunt Zhang had noticed Ji Zhang standing outside a long time ago.

Everyone in Jinyang City has heard of General Ji, but there aren't many people who can recognize him on sight.

After all, he's not the kind of celebrity who frequently appears on posters or big screens.

However, after fighting that sixth-tier ferocious beast a few days ago, Ji Zhang is close to breaking through, and now his body is somewhat out of his control, making his presence very strong.

It gives people the feeling that this person is terrifying.

"He's my colleague. After hearing about the Gray Cloud Wolf, he planned to come with me to take a look." Actually, it was Jiang Feng's words today that alerted them.

After all, they had just survived an assassination attempt a few days ago. And yesterday they discovered something was wrong again.

You should definitely come and see it, no matter what.

His pets are of a high level, allowing him to discover clues that other pets cannot.

"Oh, then don't leave at noon, have lunch with us. Xiaofeng is going to school this afternoon! We haven't celebrated Xiaofeng's contract with the magical beast yet!" Aunt Zhang is a very ritualistic person.

Moreover, he also kept all the important dates of the people around him in mind.

The neighbors get together from time to time, which helps strengthen their relationships.

Jiang Feng also looked at Zhao Jiao.

At this moment, Zhao Jiao looked at Ji Zhang standing outside.

Ji Zhang glanced at Jiang Feng and then nodded.

"Okay, we'll stay for dinner! Thank you for your help. Is there anything else we need to buy? We'll go get it for you later," Zhao Jiao asked from the kitchen doorway.

Zhang Shen'er's shop mainly sells various snacks and some everyday dishes.

At this time, those who had breakfast have already left, and those who had dinner haven't arrived yet, making it a relatively quiet time.

Aunt Zhang's husband is responsible for preparing vegetables in the back and going out to buy vegetables. He is currently washing vegetables in the back.

Ji Zhang followed Jiang Feng and Zhao Jiao, and together they walked into the courtyard.

As soon as he stepped inside, Ji Zhang released his dark-attribute phantom beast.

Dark-attribute mythical beasts are the best at scouting; they are more sensitive to auras.

Ji Zhang's dark-attribute phantom beast is a pure black snake.

After seeing this, Jiang Feng took two steps back.

"Are you afraid of snakes?" Although Ji Zhang wasn't staring at Jiang Feng the whole time, his attention was still on Jiang Feng. When he saw Jiang Feng back away, he frowned.

As a beast tamer, one cannot have any mythical beasts that one is afraid of.

Upon hearing Ji Zhang's question, Jiang Feng shook his head vigorously: "No, I'm not afraid!"

However, snakes have always represented evil from childhood to adulthood. Whether in cartoons or elsewhere, snakes are always associated with coldness and poison.

Zhao Jiao chuckled beside her. The little snake that was at Ji Zhang's feet slowly crawled to Jiang Feng's feet and then onto Jiang Feng's shoes.

Jiang Feng really didn't dare to move.

She knew very well that the magical beast was under its master's control and would not attack people indiscriminately, nor would it bite her and poison her.

However, the fear of snakes is not something that can be overcome in a short period of time.

She still prefers fluffy things.

Although some furry animals are many times larger than snakes, furryness naturally gives people a sense of approachability.

"Changying, come back." After Ji Zhang finished speaking, the small black snake that had climbed up Jiang Feng's calf retreated. "I will tell your training instructors about your situation."

"You will receive specialized training in this area in the future." After Ji Zhang finished speaking, the small black snake disappeared from everyone's sight.

Jiang Feng's face fell, but he also knew very well that this was indeed a problem he needed to overcome.

As a beast tamer, how can you be afraid of a certain animal?

"Oh," he replied dejectedly.

Ji Zhang looked at her, clenched his fingers, but ultimately did nothing, only looking around: "Changying said there was indeed another aura."

"The smell was very strong, and it must have been left around dawn yesterday after you found it."

Each mythical beast has its own unique aura.

Of course, it wasn't just one unfamiliar aura.

Ji Zhang glanced at Jiang Feng, a hint of worry on his face.

"Take this." Ji Zhang took out something that looked like a testing device from his spatial storage.

"This is a mental strength testing device."

"While cultivating illusionary power, your mental strength will also gradually increase, and the improvement of mental strength will allow you to cultivate for a longer period of time."

Jiang Feng looked up at Ji Zhang, feeling a little apprehensive.

Has he already discovered something?

Have the testicles been discovered?

Has the secret of her magical beast space been discovered?

Zhao Jiao added from the side, "Most beast tamers don't test their mental strength in public places; it's a secret unique to beast tamers."

"Aside from the first test, where the data is publicly available and can be investigated, people tend to test themselves more often."

The various stats cultivated are the personal secrets of each Beast Tamer. After all, this world requires not only cooperation, but also competition among Beast Tamers.

Moreover, there are countless traitors lurking in their world. Having more trump cards will give them a greater chance of survival in future battles.

"The value of your mental strength represents your proficiency in controlling your magical beasts, as well as the size of your magical beast space."

This is something Jiang Feng is unaware of.

"With your current mental strength, you can only summon one phantom beast at a time."

"Summoning two will drain your energy, and in severe cases, it can lead to the collapse of your mental sea."

Ji Zhang spoke very seriously, seemingly without any ulterior motive, but Jiang Feng took a deep breath.

"Take this, consider it a gift from me." He smiled, and when he smiled, he seemed much gentler.

Jiang Feng reached out and took the mental energy monitoring device from Ji Zhang. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Then, how much mental energy is needed to summon two phantom beasts at the same time?"

"At least one hundred points." After Ji Zhang finished speaking, the small black snake crawled onto his shoulder and then flicked its tongue at Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng immediately took two steps back and put the mental energy testing device back into the space button.

"Changying, go back." After Ji Zhang finished speaking, the black snake disappeared. Jiang Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then a shadow covered her. "Don't be afraid."

Ji Zhang placed his hand on Jiang Feng's head and stiffly ruffled her hair: "It won't hurt anyone."

Jiang Feng blinked, smiled at Ji Zhang, raised his head, and brushed his soft hair against the other's palm: "Mm."

Ji Zhang withdrew his hand, and looking at Jiang Feng's squinting smile, he smiled back.

"Grey Cloud Wolf will be going with you to the training camp. The training is being overseen by the military, and we've already made contact with them."

"Besides, judging from his current condition, the Water Stone seems to be effective. Feed him the Water Stone again in a few days."

Ji Zhang had seen the state of the Gray Cloud Wolf after its battle with that sixth-tier ferocious beast that day.

After the battle, the gray cloud wolf's fur had become much duller, but it looks much better now.

"Hmm." Jiang Feng nodded, and Ji Zhang withdrew his hand and took a step back.

The gray cloud wolf had already lay down to rest.

The courtyard suddenly fell silent.

Standing at the back, Zhao Jiao sighed softly, walked to Jiang Feng's side, and asked, "Have you encountered any problems with your cultivation these past few days?"

"We're right here. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

Jiang Feng blinked and thought carefully for a while.

To be honest, there's nothing I don't understand.

Or rather, there are just too many things I don't understand.

She had only been a beast tamer for a few days, and her cultivation path had been smooth sailing without any major setbacks or obstacles.

As for the doubts, there are still many.

For example, communicating with mythical beasts and using mental energy, etc.

But she knew that these were things she would learn step by step in the future, and she naturally wouldn't understand them since she hadn't learned them yet.

If this is a problem she encountered on her cultivation path—it can't really be considered one, can it?

"Not yet." Jiang Feng scratched his head. "Everything's going smoothly."

The courtyard fell silent once again.

Jiang Feng truly had no idea what he and General Ji could possibly have to say to each other.

However, she was hesitant to use her phone in front of the other person.

It wasn't until Aunt Zhang outside called for help that Jiang Feng immediately turned around and ran out.

Inside, Ji Zhang also breathed a sigh of relief. He walked to the side of the Gray Cloud Wolf and reached out to pat its head.

"Awooo?" The gray cloud wolf opened its eyes, and after seeing who was in front of it, it opened its mouth.

Ji Zhang withdrew his hand.

"Let's go, we'll go back after we finish eating. The ferocious beasts have been acting up again lately." Summer is the season when ferocious beasts attack more frequently.

At this time, the ferocious beasts are more irritable, and it is also the time when they fight more frequently on the front lines.

Fortunately, every summer, students from various universities are sent to the front lines for internships.

Although their strength was not very great, their numbers were considerable, and they were able to withstand the invasion of the ferocious beasts.

However, universities usually don't start their summer break until June, and it's only around May 20th now, so this period is the most troublesome time for them.

Jiang Feng breathed a sigh of relief after being called out.

How embarrassing!

General Ji gives people the feeling of a very rigid headmaster.

Jiang Feng helped Aunt Zhang carry the plate.

Inside the courtyard, Ji Zhang listened to the sounds outside and finally decided to leave.

"You can stay here." After saying that, he looked outside.

With him around, it wouldn't be good if he were recognized.

He just rarely appears in front of people, not that he doesn't appear at all.

Today is a happy day for everyone to celebrate Jiang Feng, and he feels that it might not be appropriate for him to be there.

Zhao Jiao nodded, and then Ji Zhang took out a fourth-order water-attribute illusion crystal from his spatial button.

"You can give this to him later and say it's compensation from the military region and the administration bureau."

Last time, Jiang Feng only wanted the Flying Rat, and the next day Ji Zhang had Zhao Jiao bring it to her.

But the flying squirrel is ultimately a worthless item.

After seeing the Illusion Crystal, the Gray Cloud Wolf wagged its tail and even walked up to Ji Zhang and squatted down.

"Heh." He chuckled softly, reached out and ruffled the wolf's head vigorously, then turned and left.

The gray cloud wolf shook its head and howled at him a few times, looking somewhat exasperated.

Upon hearing the sound, Jiang Feng immediately ran into the courtyard, while Ji Zhang brushed past her.

Jiang Feng felt that there was a very familiar aura about Ji Zhang.

"Uncle Wolf, what's wrong, Uncle Wolf?" Jiang Feng squatted down in front of the Gray Cloud Wolf, reaching out to pinch the wolf's ears to comfort it.

The gray cloud wolf rested its head on Jiang Feng's shoulder, whimpering.

Wronged!

Ji Zhang could naturally hear the commotion inside, and quickened his pace.

Once he was in the car, he turned around and looked in that direction.

"It's nothing, it's just that the general gave this to me." Zhao Jiao said, handing the fourth-tier illusion crystal in her hand to Jiang Feng.

"The compensation we applied for for you must have frightened you while you were in the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng looked at the fourth-tier illusion crystal in Zhao Jiao's hand with a hint of disbelief on his face.

"compensate?"

"Yes, and there's also compensation from the general," Zhao Jiao said. "Red Horn arrived a step too late that day, otherwise Gray Cloud Wolf wouldn't have suffered so much damage."

The gray cloud wolf let out a "woof" from the side.

Wolves are good, humans are bad!

Zhao Jiao lowered her head and chuckled softly.

It seems that General Ji and Gray Cloud Wolf don't get along very well.

"This should be a canine magic crystal, which should be useful for the Gray Cloud Wolf, but I don't know if it can restore it to its previous state."

As Zhao Jiao spoke, she pulled Jiang Feng's hand and said, "Take it. We'll feel more at ease with you once Gray Cloud Wolf has recovered."

"Please let me know if any problems arise later."

Jiang Feng glanced at the illusion crystal in his hand, unable to utter a word of refusal.

This is indeed something she needs, something she desperately needs.

Can't refuse.

We should respond to Uncle Wolf's situation as soon as possible, lest things get complicated.

"Thank you, General." Jiang Feng looked outside.

At this moment, Zhao Jiao said, "Something came up at the military region, and he has to go back to handle it."

"Can I thank him in person?"

This illusion crystal might not mean much to a powerful figure like General Ji, but it is extremely important to her.

A personal thank you is a must!

"Of course, I'll give you his contact information. He's usually quite busy, so you can contact him via QQ."

As she spoke, Zhao Jiao sent Ji Zhang's QQ number to Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng glanced at Ji Zhang's portrait, which was a Tai Chi symbol!

Is this a coincidence?
