Chapter 116 - 115: Still Have to Rely on the Dog
Soon, Leng Feifei’s figure disappeared into the mist, leaving a group of Beast Masters staring at each other.
Bai Qi walked to the edge of the cliff and looked over.
Hmm, it was so deep that if he fell, he could consider where to go in his next life.
Bai Qi looked at the lock chain swaying in the wind and could not help but complain, “So, we are supposed to reach the other side through this lock chain? This training is a bit too thrilling.”
“Thrilling? The instructor was quite restrained today.”
Hearing Bai Qi’s words, Zhou Yan could not help but licked his lips, took a flip and fell onto the lock chain, swiftly heading towards the other side just like Leng Feifei.
“Shall we set off?”
Bai Qiucha glanced at Bai Qi and followed Zhou Yan’s movement to step on the lock chain. However, after a few steps, she backed up again.
“The lock chain is shaking too much, it’s impossible for a normal person to get across.”
Bai Qi looked at Zhou Yan in the distance who was walking as if on level ground, feeling a bit strange.
So, in your eyes, two people ahead aren’t normal?
Even though he agreed with her, but my dear, is it really okay to express it so directly?
Looking at Zhou Yan who had suddenly stopped on the lock chain and turned back to look, Bai Qi suddenly understood why Zhou Yan had been beating Bai Qiucha for more than a decade.
Talking bad behind other’s back, who else to beat if not you!
However, despite his criticism, they still had to cross the lock chain.
Bai Qi stared at the lock chain for a while, then took out a measuring tool and compared it to the lock chain, then dumped out a pile of materials from his magical pocket and began assembling them skillfully.
Since they were in a magical space, Bai Qi couldn’t enter his own pocket dimension, but he could take out things from it.
As for the reason, Bai Qi didn’t understand it either.
Bai Qi’s actions attracted a lot of attention, and curious eyes were cast on him.
It was obviously unrealistic to try and cross without relying on their magical creatures, so they wanted to see what good idea Bai Qi could come up with.
Soon, an electric zip line appeared in Bai Qi’s hand.
Leng Feifei only said that they couldn’t use their magical creatures, she didn’t say they couldn’t use equipment.
Coolly holding the zip line, he came to the lock chain, installed it very skillfully, and then looked at Bai Qiucha, “Do you need me to make one for you?”
Bai Qiucha shook her head. Suddenly, a pair of bone wings appeared behind her, and she simply flew up.
Bone wings? Could it be that Bai Qiucha was also a human-beast hybrid?
Thinking of Bai Heguang’s legendary pet beast, Jiuyou Darkbird, Bai Qi’s gaze suddenly became ambiguous. However, Bai Qiucha quickly explained her situation.
“My talent is Soul Communicator, which allows me to turn some of a Beast’s abilities into my own.”
Flapping her wings, Bai Qiucha said, “The instructor only said we couldn’t summon our beasts, she didn’t say we couldn’t use our talents, right?”
What? Talents can be used this way?
Looking at the rapidly innovating Bai Qiucha, Bai Qi’s worldview was once again broken.
Using one’s own talents to pass was indeed not a violation. However, the Soul Communicator’s talents were a bit too much.
Bai Qi looked at the Evolution Egg in the Beast Control Space, silently picturing a few usage methods.
Flying egg? Bomb egg?
Looking at the Evolution Egg lying steadfastly in the Beast Control Space, Bai Qi silently gave up these unrealistic ideas. He fixed the other end of the electric zip line to his body, then activated the power and headed towards the other end of the lock chain.
Seeing this, Bai Qiucha didn’t wait any longer and followed with her bone wings fluttering.
The actions of the two undoubtedly opened a new world to the remaining Beast Masters. There were numerous individuals who tried to use their talents or create tools, and there were also those who simply gave up because they were helpless.
After all, Leng Feifei said that training adopted a point system. As long as they didn’t violate any rules, they would just lose some points at most.
Compared to the dangerous lock chain in front of them, losing a few points was something they could afford.
The lock chain was very long, and the middle swung more violently. However, it didn’t affect Bai Qi. Instead, he took advantage of the wind to accelerate towards the other side, even catching up with Zhou Yan, who started first.
“Hmm?”
Seeing that Bai Qi was able to cross the lock chain in this way, Zhou Yan was curious. However, after seeing the astonishing speed of Bai Qi’s electric zip line, she didn’t care about that anymore and hurriedly accelerated her running.
Leng Feifei had arranged similar training for her several times. If she couldn’t be the first to pass, she would have a hard time in the future.
It would be a loss, but given Leng Feifei’s character, she wouldn’t care if her opponent had used other auxiliary tools.
However, as Zhou Yan ran, the already swinging lock chain began to swing more violently, directly affecting the people behind her.
Seeing this, Bai Qi did not dare to be careless and immediately ran the zip line at full power, speeding towards the finish line.
Finally, the zip line reached the end of the lock chain, and Bai Qi flipped onto the ground. Behind him was Zhou Yan with a sad face and Bai Qiucha who was flying in with her bone wings.
“Your adaptability is good, not as rigid as some bookworms.”
Leng Feifei glanced at the electric zip line and said to Bai Qi, “But next time, I hope to see you cross the zip line with your own abilities, understand?”
There’s a next time?
Bai Qi was silent, he had a general idea of what his life would be like for the next six months, but he obediently nodded.
After reprimanding Bai Qi, Leng Feifei turned her gaze towards Zhou Yan, the usually fearlessly daring Zhou Yan shivered unconsciously under Leng Feifei’s stare.
“It seems like you’ve been too relaxed recently, after today’s training, you’re penalized to sprint back and forth on the chain a hundred times!”
“Yes, teacher!”
Hearing Leng Feifei’s decision, Zhou Yan immediately agreed loudly, while he also let out a sigh of relief.
Following the arrival of the three, another group of people arrived consecutively, but the ones who arrived immediately after were not the several Four Stage Beast Masters that Bai Qi had anticipated, but instead Lu Qing.
Lu Qing’s method of advancing was the same as Zhou Yan’s, she also walked over on the chain.
However, it wasn’t due to exceptional physical prowess, but rather the pair of shoes on Lu Qing’s feet that shimmered with the glow of runes.
Was it a treasure artifact?
Bai Qi curiously studied it for a few moments, and memorized the runes on it.
The Rune Department was a major school, not purely for researching runes alone, the study of treasure artifacts was also part of it.
As a product of the previous era, the value of treasure artifacts were not to be underestimated, some powerful ones could even spark a scramble among legends.
Of course, Bai Qi didn’t believe he could make a treasure artifact at this point, but that didn’t stop him from preparing in advance.
One must have dreams, who knows if one day he might succeed.
However, Lu Qing clearly noticed the attention from Bai Qi. After landing, she immediately dispersed the glow of the runes, showing no intention of letting Bai Qi memorize it.
Being rejected by Bai Qi in front of so many people earlier, it was impossible for Lu Qing to not bear a grudge. Now seeing Bai Qi interested in her rune shoes, how could she be willing?
The group waited for a while, but no more people came over the chain, from nearly a hundred students now only dozen remained.
“Good, by successfully completeing the first task, you’ve proven yourselves having the basic qualifications to be competent Beast Masters.”
Leng Feifei looked around, nodded in approval. With a snap of her fingers, everyone who’d failed in the passage or were blocked by the chain reappeared.
“As for you all, considering this was the first round of assessments, I won’t disqualify you yet, I will just deduct the corresponding credits. However, it won’t be so easy next time.”
Upon hearing Leng Feifei’s words, the disqualified students felt as if they’d been pardoned, but they quickly fell into worry.
Who knew when Instructor Leng’s next training session would be? If there was another round tomorrow, wouldn’t they be doomed?
However, Instructor Leng clearly had no intention of calming them down.
Turning towards the rainforest behind her, she said, “Now, I’ll announce the second task – eating!”
Eh, why do Instructor Leng’s tasks always feel so… ordinary?
Bai Qi curiously watched Leng Feifei.
Given the experience from the round before, Bai Qi doubted that this ‘eating’ task declared by Leng Feifei would be a simple one, it might even be more troublesome than the previous running test.
Sure enough, upon hearing the chatter of the students, Leng Feifei snapped her fingers again and nearly a hundred grilling stands appeared in front of everyone.
“Today’s lunch is roast pork, everyone needs to catch a Wood Armor Wild Boar and take it here, otherwise forget about having any meals today.”
[Name]: Wood Armor Wild Boar
[Attribute]: Wood Element
[Bloodline Level]: Low-Leevl Elite
Feasting on Low-level elites, the association is so lavish!
Bai Qi silently gave Leng Feifei a thumbs-up, although he didn’t mind, the rest of the Beast Masters who hadn’t yet recovered from the previous rounds were quite overwhelmed.
Some of them had directly fallen in the passage while some others fell off climbing the chains.
Although they were all transported away by the secret realm without any injuries, both their physical and spirit powers were substantially drained. If they were to fight now, they would be lucky to use half their abilities.
After all, the state of the pet beasts were also influenced by the Beast Masters. Although this Wood Armor Wild Boar was just low-level elite, it was a social creature, capturing them wasn’t going to be easy.
Above all, the rainforest was so large, where were they supposed to find a Wood Armor Wild Boar?
Leng Feifei leaned back, sinking into a couch that had popped up out of nowhere. She then took out an hourglass and placed it in front of her, “To not disrupt your training this afternoon, the mealtime is limited to one hour. Those who don’t want to go hungry better get moving.”
“Also, I don’t want to see anyone eating whatever they’ve carried with them.”
Bai Qi froze upon hearing this, prepared in advance, was that not directed at him?
Why was she singling him out?
Hearing Leng Feifei’s words, the Beast Masters who’d planned resting a while before resuming their searches immediately got up. Summoning their pet beasts, they charged into the depths of the rainforest.
“I’m going ahead.”
Bai Qiucha waved a goodbye to Bai Qi, flapped her bone wings, and flew towards the rainforest.
It’s indeed beneficial being able to fly.
Watching several people around him summoning flying Beast Control, Bai Qi’s mouth was watering in envy. However, upon remembering the slime in the secret realm, he started to feel a headache again.
Forget it, will see after reaching the third stage.
Bai Qi wiped the corner of his mouth, summoned Husky, informed it of the target, and similarly started to advance into the rainforest.
Even if they could fly, when it comes to finding things, they still have to rely on a dog!
