717: Chapter 718 Xiao Ji’s Strength_1 717: Chapter 718 Xiao Ji’s Strength_1 Seeing Big Cat hesitate, Feng Yuan thought for a mont and said
“Do you want to exchange your data intelligence now, or would you prefer to keep it for a while?”
“If you plan to keep it for now, I can help you conceal it.”
Big Cat thought about it and owed sothing to Agunas, who glanced at Feng Yuan before interpreting,
“It wants to trade it for benefits, but the things it desires seem to be quite a lot…”
“A lot?
Forget it, just accompany it there, with you around, I trust they won’t dare to play tricks.”
Feng Yuan said, stroking his chin, although going himself would be a bit safer, it wasn’t necessary.
With the Divine Beast Agunas accompanying, they’d be less likely to pull any stunts, or rather the transaction would certainly be relatively fair.
“So, I’ll go tomorrow…”
“Why not now?” Feng Yuan asked, glancing at Agunas.
“You now have enough strength to protect yourself; you don’t always have to follow .”
“But you don’t,” Agunas calmly replied.
It hadn’t forgotten that the actions Feng Yuan took over the past six months ant that he hardly had any power to wield now.
Before, he could borrow the Power of Death from the White Wolf Deity, but now the White Wolf Deity was in a different ti point and couldn’t transfer any power to him.
Scratching his head under Agunas’s watchful eyes, Feng Yuan said brightly,
“Alright, I’ll make the call now.”
“This is not your hotline service!”
Captain Yang sowhat angrily roared, while her teammates muttered softly to each other,
“He’s looking for the boss again?”
“He talks like that, but you know he actually looks forward to receiving the call.”
“Exactly, if he would just initiate…”
“Shush, the boss is looking this way.”
Turning her head to glance at the murmuring teammates, Captain Yang, with a full head of taphorical black lines, said,
“What is it this ti?”
“Big Cat?”
“How could it have that thing?!”
“Alright, I’ll make the contact for you.”
“Now?
Do you not look at the ti?!”
“Fine…”
…
After a while, Captain Yang hung up the phone and said to the woman beside her,
“Remind to have them set up his own hotline service.”
“Hotline service?”
The woman was puzzled for a mont, holding back laughter.
Captain Yang, still sowhat irritated and holding her phone, complained,
“I can’t let him call for every little thing!
What do they take for?”
The woman covered her mouth to suppress a chuckle, she knew full well that despite Captain Yang’s words, the supposed ‘hotline service’ was unlikely to happen.
After all, everyone had assessed his situation, and even if a ‘hotline service’ was established, it was highly probable that he wouldn’t use it.
“Are you…
getting on soone’s nerves now?”
Qi Chen spoke without amusent, having heard the loud voice on the phone.
It made sense, though.
It was quite odd if they weren’t annoyed by a late-night call.
“I shouldn’t have…”
Feng Yuan said, scratching his head uncertainly, but he couldn’t think of anyone else to contact.
Elder Li could step in, but he didn’t have his contact information.
As for Captain Yan, Captain Chen, and the others, the special task force of Maomu City simply didn’t have the authority to discuss such matters.
Having lived through the Federal Era, he was well aware that while Big Cat’s data intelligence might not be as impactful in this world, it was nevertheless not sothing ordinary.
Many places could use that data intelligence, so keeping it secret was important.
Unless Big Cat stayed close to Agunas at all tis, it would be in danger before gaining enough strength to protect itself.
“Speaking of which, those guys are trouble too…”
Reminded of sothing, Feng Yuan muttered to himself.
Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said,
“You have so little faith in us?”
“I don’t have confidence in Maomu City’s defense system…”
“Forget it, I’ll ntion it to him later, I believe they must have anticipated it.”
“There’s no need to be so nervous, it’s going to be all right.”
Feng Yuan said with a laugh to Xiao Ji, who was on alert, that Agunas hadn’t returned yet this morning, seemingly anticipating this.
Agunas had already told Xiao Ji in advance to be more vigilant and protect Feng Yuan if he couldn’t make it back in ti.
“Did you do sothing again?
Otherwise, why would you be so worried about your safety?”
Qi Chen asked in puzzlent, shaking his head, Feng Yuan said,
“No, haven’t you seen where I’ve been lately?”
“Then why…”
“Maybe Agunas is just overly nervous.
After all, things have stabilized over at Odinis; what danger could there be?
There aren’t any ruins nearby either.”
“Ruins?”
Qi Chen asked, sowhat confused, thought for a mont, and Feng Yuan said,
“Recently, all sorts of ruins have been dangerous.
Don’t forget about the Erald Ruins.
Anyway, the archaeological research on the ruins has more or less stopped, so there shouldn’t be anything dangerous happening.”
“Besides, it’s not like I’m completely defenseless.”
“Really?”
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan skeptically and gently patted Xiao Ji’s back.
Feng Yuan smiled and said,
“Do you want to change back into Little Yellow?”
Glancing at Pomiti perched on Feng Yuan’s head, Xiao Ji shook its head, refusing the offer.
Changing its form would greatly weaken its power, and it didn’t want to do that now.
“A practice battle?”
In the afternoon, upon hearing Teacher Yan’s arrangents, Feng Yuan looked at Xiao Ji with great interest.
Xiao Ji was still guarding him, but the anticipation in its eyes made it clear to Feng Yuan that it wanted to give it a try.
Pushing Xiao Ji slightly, Feng Yuan said with a smile,
“Isn’t this what you enjoy the most?
Why not go ahead?”
Xiao Ji looked at Feng Yuan and shook its head again.
After another push, Feng Yuan said sowhat helplessly,
“Alright, we’re inside a school now, there shouldn’t be that many dangers, and I’ll be standing right beside you.
Nothing will happen.”
Stubbornly shaking its head, it took a while to persuade Xiao Ji before it finally started taking steps towards the practice battle, looking back every three steps.
As the battle comnced, Feng Yuan yawned while watching the student opposite him.
The opponent wasn’t from their class, so Feng Yuan didn’t know much about him, but even if his Spirit Beast had learned a couple of killer moves from Drudgeon, it was still no match for Xiao Ji.
Although Feng Yuan didn’t train Xiao Ji much, the beast could practice on its own.
The opponent had tried to attack the Beast Tar directly, but with Xiao Ji’s assault and interception, they had no success.
“Looking at it now, its strength could probably rank in the top ten of our school,” Dou Yanlan comnted while observing Xiao Ji on the field, to which Qi Chen sighed,
“I never thought it would be so strong…
nobody realized it back then…”
“Indeed.”
Dou Yanlan smiled and continued, originally, when Feng Yuan chose Xiao Ji as his beast, they thought he would be hindered by it.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ji turned out to be quite powerful.
“But that guy…
he doesn’t even train Xiao Ji, really…”
Qi Chen didn’t know what to say about Feng Yuan, but now it seed like it was Feng Yuan who had been dragging Xiao Ji down.
Any other Beastmaster who encountered a Spirit Beast with such potential would be busy training every day, unlike Feng Yuan who mostly let Xiao Ji practice on its own.
Had Xiao Ji not been capable of self-training, it might have been utterly spoiled by Feng Yuan, which made Dou Yanlan smile and say,
“But he’s not wrong for doing that.
If it were , I wouldn’t want Cotton’s life to be just about training either.”
“But…
alright…”
Seeing Dou Yanlan’s warning look, Qi Chen lowered his head.
Ah Mu gently patted him, seemingly comforting him.
At this mont, many of the students had complex expressions; after all, Xiao Ji’s initial frailty was known throughout the entire school.
Although Xiao Ji later seed quite capable, everyone knew that strength was borrowed, proving nothing.
But today’s battle fully demonstrated Xiao Ji’s potential and real power, which nobody expected—that the once underestimated Xiao Ji had such formidable strength and potential.
Xiao Ji’s independent training was known to all, so no one doubted that Feng Yuan secretly did anything for it.
After all, he seed more like soone rearing a pet than a Spirit Beast.
In the field, Xiao Ji stirred up a black storm, ceaselessly attacking its opponent.
The storm, mingled with the Power of Death, had a considerable impact on the One-leaf Fox.
Seeing its pained expression, the female student wanted to shout to give up, but the One-leaf Fox seed unwilling to lose, struggling within the storm to launch its final move towards Xiao Ji.
A flash of ice-blue light swept by, and Xiao Ji let out an angry cry.
