After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Tong Xuhua's family was connected to these matters.

Upon hearing that Chen Xing wanted to open a Beast Taming farm, Tong Xuhua was stunned for a second, then said, "It seems like a Beast Taming farm requires qualifications."

Chen Xing replied, "Sister Wu on that side can handle the qualifications."

Tong Xuhua nodded assuredly, patting his chest in guarantee, "I see... then I understand. I'll ask about it when I go back today, don't worry, since that land has to be leased out anyway, it doesn't matter who it's leased to."

Leaving the school team, it was the school's dinner time.

Students were everywhere near the canteen, and the moment they saw Chen Xing, someone screamed, and the next second, everyone nearby gathered around.

Chen Xing made a quick decision and resolutely summoned the Sìxiàng, mounting it.

"Let's go."

The Sìxiàng spread its six wings and soared into the sky.

As the Sìxiàng took off, there were some Iron Feather Fighting Hawks chasing after them from below.

Fortunately, these Iron Feather Fighting Hawks were only the Beasts of freshman students, with a low Energy Level and slow speed; they were soon left far behind and out of sight.

After distancing himself from the school, he found a secluded alley to land in.

Exiting the alley, Chen Xing, who had been worried about a similar scene occurring, realized he had worried unnecessarily, as many pedestrians on the street walked past him, hardly anyone taking notice.

Occasionally, a few young people on the street seemed to recognize Chen Xing, giving him a few extra glances.

But their attitudes were normal.

Completely unlike the reactions of his schoolmates, Chen Xing felt that it must be because he had led the Azure Dragon Junior High to win the High School Cup, causing his schoolmates to react more intensely.

After returning home, that night Chen Xing sent a message to his mentor, sharing his plans of opening a Beast Taming farm at home and seeking the mentor's advice.

He turned off his phone, Chen Xing returned from his bedroom, and saw a massive glass fish tank placed on the living room table.

Inside the fish tank swam two little crocodiles.

His parents had named them "Big Fatty" and "Little Fatty."

They believed silly names made for easier rearing.

These two little Salty Bay Crocodiles were about the same size as Taotie when it first hatched.

Only slightly longer than the palm of a hand.

Watching the two tiny crocodiles swimming in the tub, Chen Xing was momentarily lost in thought.

He seemed to see Taotie as a youngling.

A moment later, Chen Xing refocused his attention.

To grow Big Fatty and Little Fatty to an Energy Level of thirty-eight would normally take two to three years.

However, if they had enough resources, this time could be significantly shortened.

The next day, after his classmates had gone to their classes, Chen Xing didn't enter the school until after nine o'clock.

In fact, attending school or not wasn't a big deal for him at this point.

Because he had already been guaranteed admission.

On the other hand, the three senior students were still working hard, although some universities had offered them olive branches due to their status as members of the championship team.

But Jiuzhou University was not among them.

They aimed at the top academic institutions in the country, so to get into Jiuzhou University, the seniors, upon their return, did not relax but doubled their efforts instead.

The identity of championship team members was both an honor and a spur.

If one's character doesn't match one's position, the pressure can feel like a mountain weighing down on the heart.

"Senior, you're still training your Beast?" Chen Xing entered the training ground and saw the Raging Boar Fiery Ape carrying a huge sandbag for stress weight training.

"Yeah, this training round is almost over, wait for me a bit," Tong Xuhua replied to Chen Xing in his spare time, then continued with the training.

After ten minutes, the training round ended.

The Raging Boar Fiery Ape lay on the ground gasping for breath, a large pool of sweat accumulated underneath.

Chen Xing kindly reminded him, "Senior, sometimes it's good to combine work and rest, don't push it too hard, otherwise, it might sustain hidden injuries."

"Yeah, thanks for the reminder, I have a professional Beast massage therapist come to do massage and recovery every week," Tong Xuhua laughed heartily.

Wiping the sweat off his face with a towel, "Come on, follow me."

They went to a room inside, where Tong Xuhua took out a map from his bag.

"I asked about it after going back yesterday. The new district is planning further development, and the top policies have been relaxed a lot."

Pointing at a region on the new district map, "All these green areas can be contracted, take a look at which one interests you."

Chen Xing glanced over the map, "Senior, do you have any recommendations?"

"Yes, this plot, the land value here is definitely going to appreciate," Tong Xuhua said, pointing to a location near the new district where the Secret Realm appeared.

"Although I don't know when the Secret Realm will descend, as long as it's near the Secret Realm, the price of the land will surely rise. Even if you do nothing by then, just selling the land will earn you a tidy sum."

After looking around the area for a while, Chen Xing pointed to a small spot in the southwest and said, "It seems like there's a pond here?"

"An unused reservoir," Tong Xuhua replied.

"Next to it is forested land, and the surrounding terrain is relatively high, resembling a bowl. There are no flat terrains nearby, so its value might not be very high."

"Let's pick this one," Chen Xing decided, noticing a road nearby. With just a short segment of new road, it would have direct access to the highway.

"Alright," Tong Xuhua agreed readily.

"Don't worry, you'll have a smooth ride acquiring the land. We'll ensure you get the best policies, and certificates like fire safety qualifications will be approved quickly. Trust me, I estimate it will take at most two days to get all the paperwork done for you," Tong Xuhua said.

"Your dad has that much clout?" Chen Xing was somewhat surprised.

Tong Xuhua shook his head, "Uh... my dad is only part of the equation. Another factor is that the new district's municipal government wants to build a good relationship with you."

"After all, you're a golden signboard, and starting a business in your hometown is also a political achievement. It may not be obvious now, but in a few years, when you've made it big, there will be plenty of local governments looking to invest in you. By then, it would be too late to seek your help."

Tong Xuhua hurriedly added, "These are all my dad's words."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xing couldn't help but re-evaluate himself.

Perhaps he had underestimated his own value?

But Chen Xing quickly snapped out of the illusion. Others were interested in his potential.

Until his potential turned into reality, it would always be nothing more than an illusion.

If he were to indulge in it, it might be too late.

His reason for establishing the breeding farm was to earn more Skill Points, which would allow him to unlock new Skills faster.

Then, by running the Beast Taming breeding farm, he could make some money on the side. Having a source of capital wouldn't be too bad either.

After all, relying on prizes and betting for income is unstable; he needed a more steady source of wealth.

That was the real purpose behind his action.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, senior," Chen Xing said sincerely.

Tong Xuhua grinned, "No need to be so formal, junior. Friends should help each other out."

In that moment, the words his father had passed on to him the day before echoed in Tong Xuhua's mind: "This junior of yours might be the most important benefactor you'll encounter in your lifetime. If you can maintain your relationship as friends, that will be enough to sustain you for a lifetime."

Tong Xuhua might not believe in everything, but he did trust his father's judgement.

His father had risen from humble beginnings to his current status because of an unerring ability to judge people.

...

When Chen Xing returned home in the evening, he received a reply from his mentor.

"You want to start a Beast Taming breeding farm? Are you planning to explore the evolution of Beast Taming, or are you attempting to verify the feasibility of mass breeding for a certain Species? I wasn't planning on initiating any research projects in this area just yet.

Beast Taming research is profound and far-reaching. Many professors at Jiuzhou University have related project teams underneath them. If you can discover a new evolutionary path, that would be a never-ending gold mine.

The investment in this area is also quite significant, but if you're interested, I can apply for a research team at the university.

The most beautiful scenery in life comes from trying different paths. If you're willing to see the landscape of different paths, your teacher also supports you.

Try starting a breeding farm in Jinzhou first. If you find it too exhausting and want to give up, your teacher won't laugh at you, haha."

Beast Taming evolution is a popular research area, and previously, one of the university's professors embezzled funds intended for researching Monster Taro Sapling's evolution—18 billion capital—and was caught by the school's inspection team raising only eighty-five pigs.

The rest of the money ended up in his own pocket.

Since that incident, the university has tightened its scrutiny on project funds.

There might be a long line for approval, but I'll see if I can pull some strings to expedite the project's approval.

That way, when you come to the university, you can bring the Beast Taming creatures you've raised."

After reading his mentor's reply, Chen Xing felt a warm glow within him.

Chen Xing sent a message to his mentor to express his gratitude.

However, his mentor's words also reminded Chen Xing that if he could activate the rare monster exploration Skills, it might be easier to discover the monsters' evolutionary paths.

Uncovering several valuable evolutionary paths would be like mining a rich vein of gold.

Over the next two days, everything went surprisingly smoothly. It was as if all the green lights were turned on for them, allowing them to proceed without any hitches.

The business license, Beast Taming breeding farm qualification certificate, quarantine certificate, fire safety certificate, land title, Beast Taming breeding qualifications... all the necessary documents were swiftly sorted out and then personally handed over to Chen Xing by Tong Xuhua.

Tong Xuhua, looking at Chen Xing with a smile, said, "However, there's one most important step that you need to complete yourself."

Chen Xing looked up, puzzled, "What is it?"

"Now," Tong Xuhua explained, "you need to give your breeding farm a name."

Chen Xing thought for a moment, "Let's call it 'Phantom Realm Breeding Farm.'
