Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 178: Chapter 131: Ambush? Temporarily Ranked First! The Background of Rong Qiu!_3

Yet, he still appeared as spirited as ever.

Clearly, even these experienced seniors had not anticipated that energy conservation indeed existed, but this energy was not purely from the Wanmu Wolf’s internal energy storage, nor was it from food supplements and Magic Potions.

Instead, it came directly from the Sun in the sky.

From the perspective of physics in his past life, the nuclear fusion energy of the Sun was massively absorbed by the Wanmu Wolf, and through Photosynthesis, it was converted. Then, it was utilized with the help of the Heart of Wood.

Fortunately, following that, the Forest Wolf Troop did not leave to set off again.

They rested right by this small lake.

The small lake in this depression was already relatively central in location.

Secondly, though there was sunlight, and the energy of the Wanmu Wolf could rapidly recover,

the fast operation of the ”Sunlight Absorption,” ”Photosynthesis,” and ”Heart of Wood” Skills that composed the ”Solar Formula” placed a tremendous strain on both body and mind.

This, Su Ping had previously felt from Old Sha.

Moreover, just now, Da Zhuang had suffered considerable injuries while helping Li Da to defend against the Hydro Serpent’s Iron Water Cannonball, and he needed to turn into a wooden state for recovery.

From any perspective, Li Da’s decision not to continue leading the team forward was quite wise.

And so, the first day of the competition entered the night as the sky gradually grew dim.

In just one day, more than forty people were eliminated, close to ten teams worth of members.

And next to the huge live broadcast screen, there was also a real-time points ranking.

Right now, at the top of the leaderboard was none other than the Forest Wolf Troop, which no one had expected!

With a high score of 29 Points, they occupied the top position.

Completely eliminating two teams, that itself was a reward of fourteen Points!

The remaining fifteen Points were awarded for surviving unscathed for six Xiaoshi on the battlefield.

Following closely behind was the group that was previously the favorite to win, the Netherworld Demon Tiger.

They were only three Points behind the Forest Wolf Troop, the reason being that they had let one escape when they had the chance to wipe out an entire team earlier.

After that was the relatively lesser-known but not to be underestimated Shadow Leopard Troop.

The Shadow Leopard shared some similarities with the Shadow Wolf, both being assassin-type Pet Beasts that strike from the shadows.

However, the Shadow Leopard Troop did not fight honorably. Aside from having the Shadow Leopard continue evolving into further Shadow Leopards, they also included the Magic Shadow Leopard, and even the rare Mental Category evolutionary branch, the Soul Eater Leopard.

With five combat groups, their Evolutionary Bodies were not the same, which clearly indicated that they had made meticulous arrangements.

Next was the Great Serpent Master’s Niu Mang Troop, whose Evolutionary Body was the Titan Python.

This Titan Python stood out for its blunt force approach, even managing to eliminate the Great Strength Vajra Ape, similarly known for physical strength.

Of course, the price they paid was that they were the only team in the top five to have lost a member.

However, the fifth place was absolutely unexpected to everyone.

It was not any team from another Monkey D Breeder, but rather another team from the Fighting Wolf A Breeder!

It was the previously unanticipated Snow Wolf Group!

The Snow Wolf Group, along with the Forest Wolf Troop and the Sand Wolf Troop, were originally regarded as the bottom teams of the Fighting Wolf A Breeder. However, unexpectedly, they shone brightly in this competition.

Even Su Ping couldn’t help but take note of this Snow Wolf Group.

The Breeder of the Snow Wolf Group turned out to be a woman named Rong Qiu who came from Beiyuan Province.

This Evolutionary Body was her own development, the so-called ”Cold Water Wolf.”

The name of this Evolutionary Body was not very impressive, but its abilities were extremely formidable.

It could infuse toxicity into water, which upon only slight contact, could incapacitate an enemy within moments.

Su Ping watched with a combination of admiration and trepidation.

Poison Type Pet Beasts, that’s just how terrifying they are.

On this first day of the competition, Lin Lei, Chief Lin, was absolutely elated.

Among the six participating troops, the Hunting Wolf Group was unfortunate, encountering the ace of the Tiger C Master, the Netherworld Demon Tiger, and was eliminated as a group. The Shadow Wolf Group also met a strong opponent; although they weren’t wiped out, they still lost three members.

Even so, Lin Lei did not criticize anyone.

Although it was only the first day, the Forest Wolf Troop had taken the lead on the leaderboard.

The Snow Wolf Group ranked fifth.

Even the Flame Wolf Group and Sand Wolf Group that followed were not low in the rankings.

Needless to say, Lin Lei was overjoyed.

The head of the Monkey D Breeder group, whose teams hadn’t made it into the top five, had a face as dark as pitch—needless to say, he thoroughly berated almost everyone who was eliminated.

The battles on the field, even at night, do not stop. On the contrary, there are even some groups that choose to hunt other Pet Beast groups at night.

However, Su Ping didn’t continue to watch. For him, after a day of eye-opening observation, he had some new ideas about Pet Beast Cultivation that needed to be organized.

However, most people were still here, in the square, continuing to watch the competition.

After all, those who could be here were not Low-level Beast Tamers. High-Level Beastmasters possessed sufficient physical fortitude, so staying up all night was trivial for them.

But Su Ping absolutely hadn’t expected that, besides him, another person too returned to their residence at night, picking up their phone.

It was none other than the Breeder of the Snow Wolf Group that greatly exceeded Lin Lei’s expectations today.

It was that Breeder Rong Qiu who also attracted much attention in today’s competition.

This Breeder Rong, however, didn’t care much about the rankings.

Her entire attention was on Su Ping.

And at this time, just like Su Ping, she returned to her residence early.

She dialed a phone number directly, and the call was quickly connected, a hearty voice coming through the receiver:

”Hello?”

”I’ve seen Su Ping, and his bred Wanmu Wolf Group!”

Rong Qiu smiled slightly, then lit a slim lady’s cigarette, slowly blowing out a ring of smoke.

If Su Ping were here, he would certainly recognize that the voice on the other end of the phone was none other than his unreliable old dad.

And he would probably never have imagined that these two people, whom he would never have expected to know each other, had already met.

Even more so, the reason this Breeder, who gave Chief Lin an unexpected joy, could become their Snow Wolf Group’s Breeder might mainly have something to do with Su Ping.

”Hahaha, how’s it going?”

”Today’s martial contest temporarily in first place, but that might not last past tonight.”

”Hahahaha, I’ve always said, my son’s Cultivation Talent takes after me! Truly impressive.”

Rong Qiu laughed, almost losing her composure:

”If the kid has such amazing Cultivation Talent, why do you need my help?”

The voice from the phone continued:

”What do you mean ’your help’? We agreed earlier, not you, but the Rong Family!”

”Without me speaking up, the Rong Family wouldn’t help,” Rong Qiu said calmly.

”Alright, dear Qiu Qiu, just consider it a favor for your team leader. Later, I’ll have Su Ping call you godmother... or if you don’t mind, stepmother is also fine...”

”Tsk, so indecent...”
