After spending a long time in the Beast Control Space, Ye Fan only exited after performing the second Whale Swallow. 520 Official Website
www.
At this moment, it was just getting dark outside, and he had already spent seven or eight days in the Beast Control Space!
Just as he exited, Ye Fan was looking out the window, trying to digest his recent gains.
At this moment, the phone on the table rang urgently.
"Fatso?" Ye Fan picked up the phone and looked at it, showing a puzzled expression. "This guy should be cuddling with that Sunfire Snake right now, why is he calling me?"
Beep.
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Fan answered the call. As soon as he did, Li Fatso's anxious voice came through.
"Ye Fan! Deng Qiang and Ji Feng are trying to take my Beast!"
"Trying to take your Beast?" Ye Fan's brows furrowed. "Choosing a Beast is voluntary, why are they trying to take it?"
"They say that Beast was one they spotted first, and I took it before them." Li Fatso said hurriedly, "They've gathered seven or eight people and want to have a Beast Duel with me. If I lose, I have to give them my Beast!"
"What about the teacher? Isn't the teacher going to do anything?"
"The teacher is in class, and I'm trapped in the teaching building. Right now, I'm in the toilet next to the building..." Fatso said, seemingly a bit scared, "Ye Fan, come and save me, or I'll lose my Beast!"
"Stay in the toilet and stall them for me."
Click.
Ye Fan hung up the phone, opened the door, and headed to the school.
He had just found a pretty good Beast for Li Fatso, hoping that he could achieve something in this life, and now these guys were trying to take his Beast.
These two were notorious bullies in the school's regular class. In the previous life, before he rose to prominence, Fatso and he had suffered a lot from their bullying.
Deng Qiang, Ji Feng, you two scumbags, I didn't come looking for you, and you dare to come to me!
Looking for death!
...
"Hehe, fatty, did you think hiding in the toilet would make us not find you?"
"Are you scared? A proper Beast Master doesn't even have the courage to duel others."
"Someone like you shouldn't even be a Beast Master; you should go home and raise pigs!"
"..."
In an empty classroom in the teaching building, Deng Qiang and Ji Feng, along with seven or eight people, surrounded Fatso, mocking him one after another.
Fatso's face turned red, and he clenched his fists tightly.
"Ha, clenching your fists, who are you trying to scare?" Deng Qiang saw Fatso's action and pushed him hard, almost knocking him to the ground.
"Don't act all tough. In junior high, we might have been afraid of you because of your so-called theory master friend."
"But now, it's different. Your friend is only a D-rank, just like us, a useless piece of trash. Who's afraid of him?"
"If you know what's good for you, hand over that Sunfire Snake. I've asked around, and in this batch of Beasts, the Sunfire Snake is the strongest. Do you even deserve to use it? Hand it over to me right now!"
As he spoke, Deng Qiang grabbed Li Fatso, clenched his fist, and punched him in the face, then threw him aside.
The group surrounded him again, and Deng Qiang leaned in, "Don't say I'm bullying you. Either you duel me like a man right now, or hand over your Beast."
"Otherwise, don't blame us for going too far."
As he spoke, Deng Qiang raised his fist again.
"I won't." At this point, Fatso couldn't take it anymore and spoke up.
"What?" Deng Qiang laughed, "What did you say?"
The group laughed, and Deng Qiang stepped on Li Fatso, leaned down, and put his ear close, with a mocking expression, "What did you say? I didn't hear you!"
Li Fatso, being stepped on, felt suffocated and struggled to speak, "I said, I..."
"He said, let me duel." Before he could finish, a voice rang out.
Deng Qiang paused, turned his head, and saw Ye Fan stepping into the open area.
"Ye Fan?" Looking at Ye Fan, Deng Qiang seemed a bit intimidated, "You want to stand up for him?"
"What's wrong with that?" Ye Fan stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the group one by one.
This glance, filled with the anger of a King-level Beast Master, made everyone shrink back, instinctively wanting to retreat.
They were intimidated, and even Deng Qiang couldn't suppress the urge to step back. But seeing the many people around him, he seemed to regain his confidence.
"Fine, if you want to duel, let's do it."
He released his foot from Li Fatso and stood up, "If you lose, you have to hand over your Beast too."
"My Beast isn't something just anyone can take." Ye Fan replied, narrowing his eyes, "What if you lose?"
"I lose?" Deng Qiang laughed, "Ye Fan, you're still stuck in the past. It's not just about being good at theory anymore."
"I'm not stuck in the past." Ye Fan answered calmly, "I'm asking what happens if you lose?"
This nonchalant attitude seemed to anger Deng Qiang, and he waved his hand, "If I lose, I'll give you my Beast!"
"I don't want your trash Beasts." Ye Fan shook his head, "I want a seed of the Blazing Fruit from the Hundred Herbs Hall."
A Blazing Fruit seed, worth ten thousand. Hearing this, Deng Qiang hesitated.
But soon, his hesitation turned into confidence, "Let's bet then!"
Swish!
As he spoke, Deng Qiang waved his hand, and a light flashed. The next moment, a Beast resembling a pangolin appeared in front of him.
"Cloud Armor Beast." Seeing this Beast, Ye Fan understood a bit more.
A Beast with some natural resistance to toxins. No wonder Deng Qiang was so persistent with Fatso; his Beast just happened to counter Fatso's.
"But, that's all it is."
As he spoke, Ye Fan also waved his hand, and the Fire Dog appeared in front of the group.
"Fire Dog? You're bringing out such a trash Beast?" Looking at the Beast Ye Fan summoned, Deng Qiang laughed, and then raised his hand again.
"Beast: Sharp Teeth."
The light gathered on the Cloud Armor Beast, and visibly, its teeth became sharper.
Sharp Teeth, a D-rank ability, which makes the Beast's teeth sharper, providing some enhancement for Beasts that attack with their teeth.
Ye Fan naturally wouldn't hold back either, and raised his hand, the light converging.
"Beast: Ascend."
Under the light, the Fire Dog's size slightly increased, and its form seemed to change slightly.
This was his ability, Ascend, which enhances all attributes of the Beast. It sounds powerful, but the enhancement... is very small.
Less than five percent.
"Is this supposed to be Ascend? Are you trying to make me laugh?" Seeing this, Deng Qiang became even more arrogant and commanded his Beast, "Cloud Armor Beast, use Impact."
Thud, thud.
As he spoke, the Cloud Armor Beast charged at the Fire Dog with surprising speed.
Ye Fan watched this and smiled.
Impact, then bite. Deng Qiang, you're dreaming.
This might work on kids, but on me? It's a joke!
"Fire Dog, step to the right, and charge, hit its head." Just as the Cloud Armor Beast was about to collide with the Fire Dog, Ye Fan spoke up.
The Fire Dog reacted quickly, stepping to the right. The Cloud Armor Beast lost its momentum and, before it could react, the Fire Dog howled and slammed into its head.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
This collision sent the Cloud Armor Beast rolling four or five times, and then it flipped over, lying on its back with its white belly exposed.
The air suddenly became silent. Seeing the Cloud Armor Beast, which had lost its fighting ability, the group was stunned.
Deng Qiang's eyes were blank, seemingly unable to react.
One Impact, and I was taken out instantly?
"The Cloud Armor Beast is called that because it has decent defense, but you don't even know it well. You thought only its belly was its weak point, but the only part of its body not covered by armor is its head."
"This is just like your Beast, isn't it?"
Deng Qiang looked up dully, seeing Ye Fan standing in front of him, looking down with a mocking and disdainful smile on his face.
"So, how about it? Will you give me the Blazing Fruit seed now, or pay in cash?"
