A rich fragrance wafted from the backpack, causing the Boxing Rabbit's nose to twitch. As it sniffed the pleasant smell, the fatigue of the past few days was dispelled.
"When I'm upset, I like to eat. Eating makes me forget all my troubles."
"I know you've been abandoned, and you're unwilling to accept it. But you shouldn't harm your body. You should stand before him again and publicly defeat the next Pet Beast he uses."
"Make him realize that abandoning you was a choice he'll regret for the rest of his life."
"That would be the ultimate slap in the face. Don't you think that's more interesting?"
These words were like a beam of light tearing through the relentless darkness, reaching the parched heart of the Boxing Rabbit.
Yes, why should I harm my body just to prove a point?
The body is mine, and if it's damaged too much, it will harm my foundation.
This goes against my original pursuit of martial arts.
I'm living so badly, maybe the person who abandoned me is secretly laughing at me for being foolish.
No, I must pull myself together, heal my body, and then personally use these steel fists to defeat my opponent.
The Boxing Rabbit raised its fists, and a flash of gray metallic light passed by.
If Ye Bai were here, he would have noticed that in addition to the Frenzy Skill, the Boxing Rabbit had also mastered the Steel Fist skill.
With its mind at ease, the Boxing Rabbit showed a long-lost smile on its face.
Gurgle, gurgle.
Only then did the Boxing Rabbit realize it hadn't eaten in a long time. It opened the backpack, picked up a fine Ruby Carrot, and began munching away, eating so fast that it choked.
Its face instantly turned red.
"Try this, Golden Coconut Water."
Li Chen took a gold-trimmed bottle out of his space ring, filled with a crystal-clear liquid.
Seeing the interaction between the person and the Pet Beast, Li Defu had a satisfied smile on his face.
"Patriarch, this Boxing Rabbit was recently abandoned."
"It must have suffered significant psychological trauma."
"Should we suggest to the young master to change to another one?"
The butler beside him expressed some concern.
Li Defu shook his head, "No need, it's this one. It's the first time I've seen a warm smile on Li Chen's face."
"Anyone who can abandon such a good Pet Beast must have something wrong with their vision."
So Li Chen made a contract with the Boxing Rabbit, becoming its Pet Beast Master.
Li Chen's awakened talent is called Fearless, which sounds grand, but it's not very useful.
Fearless simply means having courage.
However, current research shows that this talent can only affect the individual.
In other words, this Fearless Aura can only be used by oneself, and even the Pet Beast can't share his talent.
So this talent is rated as an E-level talent, even lower than Ye Bai's Unforgettable.
That's the end of the rumination. It can only be said that the harmony between the Boxing Rabbit and Li Chen is extremely high.
Zhang Lingxue summoned a Tier Two Vine Cat.
This Pet Beast had a vine around its neck, with white flowers blooming on it, which from a distance, looked like a lion's mane.
Its big eyes appeared as clear and bright as fine green gems.
"This is my newly raised Pet Beast, the Vine Cat."
"It's a Tier Two Pet Beast, but don't worry, I won't let it unleash its full strength to attack yours."
The Vine Cat looked very well-behaved, licking its paw on the ground.
Then its paw made scratches on the ground, revealing its extremely sharp claws.
If it fell on the Thousand-Change Silkworm, it might leave a deep wound.
"The Vine Cat is so cute!"
Girls are naturally drawn to such fluffy things; they have no resistance to cuteness.
"Vine Cats are quite rare, where did Miss Zhang tame it?"
"It probably came from the research station above."
"After all, Miss Zhang discovered Li Weiyang's talent and was probably rewarded with this kind of Vine Cat."
Zhang Lingxue was currently a Tier Three Pet Beast Master and could usually contract with three Pet Beasts.
"Compared to the cute Vine Cat, Ye Bai's Thousand-Change Silkworm seems much more vulgar and lowly." Suddenly someone among the girls spoke, drawing attention to Ye Bai's Pet Beast.
"Yes, choosing the Thousand-Change Silkworm is like self-sabotage for Ye Bai. It's drooling and smacking its lips, disgusting enough," said a girl nearby.
"I can't bear having such a Pet Beast in my care; it would be so depressing," added another girl.
The carefree Thousand-Change Silkworm wasn't listening at all.
It rubbed its slightly full belly with its tongue, planning for a quick resolution.
The Thousand-Change Silkworm feared that if it took too long, there wouldn't be any carrots left in Li Chen's hand, and it would cry itself to death.
It raised its copper bell-sized eyes, glaring fiercely at the Vine Cat.
Burn, my little universe!
This fellow before me, interrupted my meal. Otherwise, I could have begged Li Chen for a few more carrots.
Though the Thousand-Change Silkworm didn't know how much these carrots cost, it knew they weren't cheap.
With the current wealth of a Pet Beast Master, they probably couldn't afford many carrots.
Those who block my food, die!
The soul of the food lover awakens!
The aura of the Thousand-Change Silkworm soared infinitely, as the Vine Cat felt as if two eye-daggers were piercing its body.
It gulped, feeling that as a Tier Two Pet Beast, it had been intimidated by the aura of a mere Tier One, which seemed excessive.
Zhang Lingxue noticed that the Vine Cat was being suppressed by the Thousand-Change Silkworm in terms of aura, and her eyes lit up.
Could this be the hidden ability of the Thousand-Change Silkworm?
"Vine Cat, use the Seed Jet."
"Let's test the defense of the Thousand-Change Silkworm."
This battle was also an excellent opportunity for Zhang Lingxue to test the Thousand-Change Silkworm's physical data.
She wanted to figure out what set the Thousand-Change Silkworm apart from the Hundred-Change Silkworm.
The Vine Cat opened its pitch-black mouth, shooting out a green seed.
The seed moved at a fast speed, hitting the Thousand-Change Silkworm before it could react.
With a clink sound, everyone thought the Thousand-Change Silkworm was about to be defeated, but the silkworm used its tongue to scratch the spot hit by the seed, and there wasn't even a white mark.
It secretly breathed a sigh of relief; the move seemed potent and imposing, but it turned out to be merely a mosquito bite.
It wasn't right; it felt itchy all over, wanting to scratch an itch.
In front of everyone's eyes, the Thousand-Change Silkworm lay on the ground, rubbing its back against the floor, showing an expression of comfort.
The seed that had been shot was deeply embedded in the wall, with a wisp of white smoke emerging.
Everyone looked in disbelief; there's no way, can this Pet Beast have such strong defense?
The way it's rubbing its back on the ground, is that a technique?
Could it deepen its defense through this technique?
Hearing the other students discussing, Ye Bai silently facepalmed. He already understood the quirks of the Thousand-Change Silkworm over these days.
Can I really tell them that the Thousand-Change Silkworm simply wants to scratch an itch?
If I say that, would I still have any dignity left? Would I still be able to hang out at Shen Mountain First High School?
