After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

"Let's follow the coach's arrangement," Chen Xing said steadily.

"Longshang Desert Middle School is different from the formidable opponents we've encountered before," Kuang Shiyi said. "Most of the opponents we faced before were private schools, whereas Longshang Desert Middle School is a public institution."

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door, "Their Beast Tamings all come from the national Beast Pool provided for free, and their teaching methods are unique, with an emphasis on real combat training."

"Ah? The principal?" Everyone turned their heads to see the entering principal.

Xue Jinbao walked into the room with a smile.

"Longshang Desert Middle School is not like any other school you have encountered before. It's quite special," he told the students.

"They are actually a designated experimental school, aimed at developing students' combat abilities from high school."

"In the Longshang area, they have the conditions and environment to implement such a teaching plan," he continued.

Xue Jinbao went on to say, "And their victory last year also proves that their way of teaching is effective and qualified, so this kind of teaching method may be gradually popularized across the country."

"The five members of the Longshang Desert team have ten Beast Tamings. They have fully claimed the top ten spots in the national free Beast Pool."

Hearing this, Tian Xuechuan couldn't help but admire.

"There are such good things?" he said.

Xue Jinbao nodded, "Yes, but they really put their lives on the line because they have to sign a life-and-death responsibility agreement upon enrollment.

Entering the Secret Realm for practical training is as common as eating and drinking for them. When they reach their senior year, they even have to go to Exotic Regions for training."

Hearing that they had to go to both Secret Realms and Exotic Regions,

Tian Xuechuan immediately fell silent.

Because going to Exotic Regions was truly risking their lives.

Going to the Secret Realm could be said to be safe since the nation cleared it in advance, removing any excessively dangerous creatures.

But going to an Exotic Region is definitely not that simple.

In Exotic Regions, there are numerous creatures, and these creatures are mobile. One might encounter an over-the-top creature just by walking down the road.

A single misstep could lead to the annihilation of the whole team.

Risking their lives to pilot national experimental tests.

It's only fitting that the nation provides better Beast Tamings.

Tian Xuechuan remembered the top ten Beast Tamings very clearly.

The list in the free Beast Pool is divided according to ranking, from top to bottom.

no.1 Silver Scale Tiger

no.2 Moxiang Ant

no.3 Heavy Armored Land Rhino

no.4 Color Feather Serpent Bird

no.5 Giant Stone Toad

no.6 Bone Carving Mantis

no.7 Ghost Face Pufferfish

no.8 Golden Iron Beast

no.9 Salty Bay Crocodile

no.10 Iron Feather Fighting Hawk

...

"So, has their school team also secured the top five spots in the Beast Pool this time?"

"Not exactly," Xue Jinbao shook his head as he continued, "The main force of Longshang Desert Middle School currently consists of the Silver Scale Tiger, Heavy Armored Land Rhino, Giant Stone Toad, Bone Carving Mantis, and Golden Iron Beast.

All five of these Beast Tamings are the cream of the crop on land, each with its unique Skills and advantages.

The Silver Scale Tiger is known for its agility and powerful strength,

the Heavy Armored Land Rhino is famous for its solid defense and charging power,

the Giant Stone Toad specializes in controlling the pace of the battlefield,

the Bone Carving Mantis is noted for its fast attack speed and precision,

and the Golden Iron Beast is an all-around Beast Taming with extremely high defense and attack power."

"Currently, all five Beast Tamings on their team have undergone an evolution,

evolving into Sky Light Silver Scale Tiger, Iron Wall Rock Rhino, Mountain Toad, Carving Feather Blade Mantis, and Metal-Eating Power King Beast.

Their average Energy Level is around 48, not to be underestimated."

Coach Kuang added, "I've delved into their match recordings, and the Beast Tamings from Longshang Desert Middle School are very ferocious in combat.

From their Beast Tamings, I can sense an indescribable 'wildness.'

This wildness can't be cultivated through training; it can only be earned through life-and-death battles in real combat."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "Although Modu Yunlong's ace Beast Taming has an Energy Level of over 55, they still lost to Longshang Desert Middle School in a 4V4 team battle.

This shows that the strength of Longshang Desert Middle School's Beast Tamings is indeed extraordinary."

"Our school also has a Heavy Armored Land Rhino; it will be good to see what an evolved Heavy Armored Land Rhino looks like," Chen Xing chuckled.

He thought of Wang Bing's Beast Taming, which was also a Heavy Armored Land Rhino.

Unfortunately, the growth of Wang Bing's Beast Taming was too slow; currently, it did not display the style of a land tank.

Kuang Shiyi was lost in memory, "Iron Wall Rock Rhino... I've seen them charge together on the battlefield, crowded and dark, like a city wall connected together, pushing horizontally forward."

Chen Xing bowed his head to read the information the teacher shared in the group. His gaze was suddenly drawn to a photograph.

It was a striking photo of the Iron Wall Rock Rhino.

In the picture, the Iron Wall Rock Rhino resembled a majestic hillock, seven meters high and fifteen meters long. It lay there, exuding an intimidating aura.

The huge horn in the middle of its nose, like a Curved Knife pointing to the sky, glinted coldly.

The thick, armored hide was covered with scars, large and small— from a distance, it looked like a wall inscribed with patterns.

Chen Xing's gaze slowly moved over the photo,

suddenly, he noticed, in the shadows by the side of the Iron Wall Rock Rhino, a long, slim shadow revealing half of its form.

He steadied himself and looked more closely.

It was a lean, slender figure,

its long, hooked sickle glittering with cold light in the sunshine.

The snow-white body and the light blue wings reflected each other brilliantly.

Chen Xing continued to browse through the materials the teacher had shared in the group chat.

In one of the photos, a black-brown toad creature lay on the ground,

its back covered in large lumps that were uneven and appeared exceedingly hard.

The toad creature's eyes were slightly closed, as if it were resting or perhaps keeping vigilant of the surroundings.

Its strong thigh muscles were incredibly well-developed.

Another photo exhibited a Sky Light Silver Scale Tiger with a body of pure silver, its scales shimmering dazzlingly under the sunshine like a warrior clad in silver armor.

The last photo showed a lovable Iron Eater King Beast, its physique resembling a Golden Iron Beast enlarged several times, giving off a sense of both bulkiness and cuteness.

Apart from the toad creature, the aesthetics of every other Beast Taming creature were quite striking.

They were both powerful and beautiful.

However, his little crocodile also wasn't bad and looked quite cute too.

The information revealed that the captain of the Longshang Desert team was actually a girl.

In the photo, a tall, short-haired girl looked confidently at the camera, one hand on her hip, the other resting on the wing of a Color Feather Serpent Bird.

The snow-white scythes of the Color Feather Serpent Bird were drawn in, its blue wings like a translucent cape.

Her cool and aloof temperament gave off the vibe of an understated assassin.

However, to be the captain of a group of Beast Taming creatures, this Color Feather Serpent Bird must be strong.

Kuang Shiyi said to Chen Xing, "You must be careful when you fight this Color Feather Serpent Bird."

In previous battles, this very Color Feather Serpent Bird from the opposing team had demonstrated a strong ability for battlefield slicing.

Moreover, it had most likely awakened the passive skill of the Carving Serpent Bird — Bone Picking!

Its scythe was sharper than ordinary ones; regular leather armors crumbled like paper in the face of its scythe.

The reason behind the Carving Serpent Bird's name lay in its eating habits in the wild; it would nibble at its food finely and slowly.

Eating every bit of flesh off the prey, leaving nothing but bones behind."

Hearing these words, Chen Xing nodded.

In this world, the abilities of Beast Taming were endless and diverse, with all kinds capable of emerging.

Thousands of passive Beast Taming skills have been discovered to date, many of which are rare passives unique to different creatures.

This Color Feather Serpent Bird's ability was undoubtedly a counter to Taotie.

However...

Its scythes were sharp, but the hide of Taotie was also not to be underestimated in hardness.

It was like the strongest spear against the strongest shield.

Without a battle, no one would know the outcome.

...

Back in his room, just as Chen Xing was preparing to rest, there came a knock at the door.

"Junior, someone is looking for you," called the senior's voice outside.

Chen Xing opened the door, only to see that besides the senior, there was also a young woman in her early twenties outside.

She wore a simple yet stylish white blouse with its collar slightly open, revealing the graceful line of her neck.

Her hair casually draped over her shoulders, the slightly curled strands glistening in the light, her makeup fresh and natural, with a pair of simple metal earrings by her ears.

Chen Xing had never seen this young woman before.

The woman smiled friendly and said, "Hello, my name is Situ Xiaoqing. I hope I haven't disturbed you at this time?"

The surname Situ was familiar. After being attacked, Chen Xing received some potential clues through his mentor's channels, including a piece with the Situ name on it.

"You're not disturbing, may I ask what it is you need?" Chen Xing looked at her, pondering her intentions.

Situ Xiaoqing briefly explained her reason for being there.

"I am here on behalf of my family."

"My brother, Situ Yan, is the captain of the Dragon Breed Beast team that you defeated last time.

He's been obsessed with Dragon Breed Beast Taming since he was young and neglected the beasts inherited from our family.

This loss has been an awakening for him. Recently, he's shifted his focus back onto the family's beasts and has been talking non-stop about wanting to defeat you with his own hands once more."

Chen Xing chuckled. He certainly didn't believe that was the reason.

Then, Situ Xiaoqing placed the box she was carrying on the table and opened it right there.

"I've heard that your Beast Taming path follows that of the esteemed Elder Qiu's Sea Emperor Crocodile route; this item might be of help to you."

Chen Xing's gaze fell on the object on the table, a yellow conch with many white star-like spots on its surface.

"This is..."

"The Blessed Conch," Situ Xiaoqing said.

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Xing suddenly remembered.

Among the materials needed for the Taotie to evolve into the Salty Bay Crocodile was this very Blessed Conch.

Chen Xing declined, "This is too valuable."

Situ Xiaoqing generously said, "It can only reach its highest value in the hands of someone who truly needs it."

With a hint of apology on her face, she added, "Besides, I have a small favor to ask."

Since it was a favor... It would've been better left unsaid.

Chen Xing silently mocked in his mind.

"Go ahead."

"My birthday is next week, and I would like to invite you to my birthday party."

Chen Xing was puzzled; was all this trouble just for that?

He did not naively believe that others were simply showing goodwill towards him.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Xing thought he figured out part of the reason.

Asking him to appear at a Situ family gathering was probably also to dispel certain rumors.

Chen Xing said, "Then I'll take the liberty of attending."
