Beast Taming Begins with Involuting Pets

When she arrived at the private room, the dishes were almost served. It was Zhu Zibin who first suggested that they have a good meal to reward themselves. But when they went to book the private room, they happened to meet Qiu Xiangjing. After hearing their idea, Qiu Xiangjing naturally couldn't let them pay for the meal, so he booked the private room and dishes himself.

Before she started eating, Lin Manman briefly explained what happened to the Jinling University Affiliated High School team.

"There's nothing strange about this. I guess the people above are nervous. There are so many teams from other regions joining this year. If our local team fails to get a good ranking, we will be embarrassed outside." Zhu Zibin didn't take it seriously. It was just a junior professional competition. Why take it so seriously?

"It may also be related to the previous university rankings and the rankings in the intermediate professional competition. You may not have noticed that the top three professional universities in the country are all in the imperial capital. Jinling University and Magic City University have been alternating between the fourth and fifth places, and the intermediate professional competition is in a similar situation. So if the imperial capital forces win this competition, the higher-ups and the audience may not have much objection. But if the Magic City forces lose, they will probably be scolded online for half a month." Xue Songwen explained to Lin Manman and Fang Yaqi with a smile.

Lin Manman and Fang Yaqi nodded suddenly. It turned out that the grudges were caused by the internal conflicts in the school. She could understand that.

"Not only that. I heard that in addition to the forces from various regions, people from the Imperial Capital Professional Alliance headquarters have also come. They have been discussing matters regarding the new secret realm with this branch over the past few days. If our local team does not perform well in the competition, it may affect the evaluation of the Jinling branch at the headquarters." Liu Ping has been gathering information related to the competition these days and has also heard some other news.

"Are the Alliance Headquarters here? Isn't this just an A-level secret realm?" Zhu Zibin asked puzzledly.

"This year, the Alliance's management system for secret realms seems to have changed. Previously, as long as the expedition team reached the corresponding level, all secret realms could be freely explored after reporting to the Alliance. Now, it seems that newly discovered secret realms require the Alliance's expedition team to explore before they can be freely entered." Xue Songwen said, turning on the bracelet and searching the Internet for information. "I don't know if the Alliance deliberately blocked the news. There is very little information available online about the new secret realms that have appeared in the past two years."

Lin Manman couldn't help but think of Father Lin. Father Lin went to the new secret realm, and the subsequent news was obtained from the returning teammates such as Qiu Xiangjing. The alliance later sealed off the secret realm, and she was unable to obtain more information.

"No wonder those group families haven't entered the secret realm yet. Letting the alliance headquarters explore first is equivalent to cutting each family's flesh. It would be strange if they agreed. I guess they are arguing. I wonder if we can see them enter the secret realm after the game is over." Zhu Zibin joked.

"I don't know if we can see them enter the secret realm. It's still a question whether we can hold on until the end of the game." Lin Manman shrugged. Feng Moyun made her feel a sense of crisis. The other party has already summoned three spirit pets. If her qualifications are at level one, she can contract two spirit pets, so she still has one to summon. If the other party can contract three spirit pets at level one like her, with the financial resources of the Feng family in the imperial capital, six high-grade spirit pets will be easy.

Lin Manman felt overwhelmed when she thought that Feng Moyun might have six pets. Their equipment was poor and they relied on their pets to improve their combat power. If they met Feng Moyun's team who had more pets and better equipment than them, their chances of winning would be slim.

"As long as we don't meet Feng Moyun before the finals, we still have a good chance of making it to the end." Xue Songwen pushed his glasses.

"Okay! Stop! Hold on! Don't say any more!" Lin Manman interrupted quickly. This seemed like he was about to set a flag.

"Okay, the dishes are here. Let's eat first. After that, you can go back to your room and discuss slowly." Qiu Xiangjing looked at this group of energetic children, as if he saw himself when he first followed the expedition team to explore the secret land.

"Yes, let's eat well first. Eat and drink well, we still have a whole day to prepare tomorrow!" Fang Yaqi greeted everyone happily. She was very nervous today. Although she had always dreamed of becoming a professional to explore and fight, it was only in her fantasy after all. Today she was facing a real battle in the true sense.

Discussing intelligence at the dinner table seemed to affect appetite. Lin Manman didn't think much about it and ate happily with everyone.

After the meal, everyone was on their way back to their rooms, but Qiu Xiangjing and Lin Manman deliberately stayed a step behind the others.

"There are six spirit pet shops within half an hour's drive from the hotel. I visited all of them after your competition. Tomorrow you should get up early and we can go for a walk." Qiu Xiangjing's main purpose for coming here was to accompany Lin Manman to participate in the competition, and his secondary purpose was naturally to make some money by taking advantage of this competition. They didn't come to the central city often, so if they sold high-quality spirit beasts occasionally, it wouldn't be too conspicuous, and they didn't have to worry about being recognized.

"Okay." Lin Manman was full of anticipation, hoping that this time she could double her assets, then her small goal of opening a spirit beast shop would basically be accomplished.

The next morning, Lin Manman left a message for Fang Yaqi, washed up and went out to meet Qiu Xiangjing. In order not to waste time and arouse other people's suspicion, the two of them picked out the spirit beasts and bought them without discussing the price. The six stores were quickly scanned by the two of them, and then Lin Manman bought all the awakening materials and skillfully awakened the blood of all the spirit beasts on the way. Although the quality was good, it was a pity that there were no talented ones, and no atavism phenomenon.

Lin Manman was happily estimating the profits from this time, but she didn't know that a figure had been following her quietly since she left the house in the morning.

After Qiu Xiangjing sent Lin Manman back to the hotel, he took the evolved spirit beast and planned to go to a spirit beast shop farther away to sell it, so as to avoid being discovered by others that they were acting together.

When Lin Manman returned to the room humming a song happily, she happened to meet Liu Ping and the other two who brought breakfast and ate with them.

She left a message to Fang Yaqi saying that she was going out for morning exercise.

She had developed the habit of doing morning exercises since they started training together a month ago, so the others did not suspect anything.

"You came back a little late today. If it wasn't for the breakfast left for you, we would have finished it long ago." Fang Yaqi pointed to the breakfast left for her.

It made her, who had secretly made money behind her teammates' backs, feel a little embarrassed.

While eating, everyone talked about today's game arrangements and discussed each other's next actions, and time passed slowly.

On the other side, Qiu Xiangjing distributed the evolved spirit beasts to several spirit beast stores, deliberately choosing stores that were not too close to each other. However, no matter how carefully he thought about it and how hard he worked, he still couldn't avoid the people who followed him early in the morning.

Without Lin Manman and Qiu Xiangjing noticing, all the evolved spirit beasts they sold this time were bought by someone else...
