Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger

Bam!

Suddenly, his shoulder bumped into something. Liu Zhihao immediately reacted, raised his head, and looked at the man in front of him, repeatedly apologizing, "I’m sorry, I didn’t notice."

Zhang Hao waved his hand, "No worries, just watch where you’re going next time."

After taking half a step, Zhang Hao turned his head to look at Liu Zhihao again, smiling playfully, "I just heard you mumbling about how the Snow Cloud Wolf could defeat the Flame Cloud Falcon?"

"Yes..." Liu Zhihao scratched his head embarrassedly and said in a low voice, "I think the Snow Cloud Wolf has a chance of defeating the Flame Cloud Falcon, but I couldn’t find a way."

Zhang Hao clicked his tongue and shook his head, "It’s useless, neither the Snow Cloud Wolf nor the Winter Dog can defeat the Flame Cloud Falcon."

Hearing this, Liu Zhihao suddenly lifted his gaze, his eyes resolute, "No, there must be a way."

"Even if..."

"Even if the attributes are countered, an Ice-type Pet Beast must have a way to beat a Fire-type Pet Beast."

"Otherwise, it’s too unfair."

"Where’s all this fairness?" Zhang Hao pouted, looking at the naive student in front of him, "Even if you let Zhuang Jianbai fight Chen Yuan, it would end in a miserable defeat."

Liu Zhihao widened his eyes, full of defiance, "They’ve never battled, how can you say that?"

"Are you sure?" Zhang Hao looked at Liu Zhihao with a strange smile on his face.

A moment later,

Zhang Hao pushed open the door, "Yuan, I brought you a fan."

Liu Zhihao followed Zhang Hao into the room, and at first glance, saw a familiar figure sitting in a chair. He couldn’t believe it and his mouth dropped open, his tone couldn’t hide his excitement, "Advisor Chen!"

Chen Yuan looked puzzled, glancing at Zhang Hao, who was watching the show, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Zhang Hao made a face, whispering, "This kid doesn’t believe that Zhuang Jianbai is not your opponent."

Chen Yuan gave him an annoyed look.

At this moment, Liu Zhihao suddenly noticed the Flame Cloud Falcon standing quietly to the side, "Flame Cloud Falcon! That Flame Cloud Falcon from before was Advisor Chen’s Pet Beast!"

"No wonder..."

"No wonder the Snow Cloud Wolf couldn’t beat it."

Hearing this, Chen Yuan glanced at the Flame Cloud Falcon next to him and smiled, "Looks like your performance was a success."

The play that Cai Hong mentioned was actually letting the Flame Cloud Falcon and the Snow Cloud Wolf have a spectacular battle.

Even though the students didn’t pick suitable Pet Beasts, being able to witness an exciting battle firsthand was worth the trip.

This is the only compensation the training base could offer them at the moment.

"Advisor Chen, was it you who sent the Snow Cloud Wolf to the base yesterday?" Liu Zhihao suddenly asked.

It must be!

Li Qian said a powerful Beastmaster sent the Snow Cloud Wolf to the base!

Only Advisor Chen’s Flame Cloud Falcon could defeat this Snow Cloud Wolf!

Chen Yuan asked back, "How do you know?"

Liu Zhihao replied, "At that time, the bus I was on overtook a pickup truck, and I saw a Snow Cloud Wolf caged in an iron cage on the pickup truck."

Chen Yuan glanced at Zhang Hao, "If a bus can overtake you, your driving skills are something else."

Zhang Hao widened his eyes, full of defiance, "You know those buses drive recklessly, and those drivers don’t care about the speeding warnings."

At this moment, Liu Zhihao took a deep breath, staring at Chen Yuan, and asked loudly, "Advisor Chen, I want to ask you a question."

"How can an Ice-type Pet Beast like the Snow Cloud Wolf defeat a Fire-type Pet Beast like the Flame Cloud Falcon?"

Hearing the question, Chen Yuan pondered briefly, then smiled, "If both Pet Beasts were under my command, the Snow Cloud Wolf would never beat the Flame Cloud Falcon."

Hearing Chen Yuan’s answer, Liu Zhihao’s gaze dropped.

Even Advisor Chen said so...

Seeing Liu Zhihao’s eyes dim suddenly, Chen Yuan shifted his tone, "But, attribute countering is definitely not the only factor determining the outcome of a battle."

"Besides, my command skills aren’t that good."

"Eh?" Surprised by these words, Liu Zhihao was stunned, "How is that possible? Advisor Chen is the best Beastmaster in our city."

Chen Yuan waved it off, "These little guys are impressive on their own, it doesn’t have much to do with me."

"But..."

Liu Zhihao still wanted to say something but was interrupted by Chen Yuan, "After you graduate, you’ll be entering the Beast Taming Academy, right?"

"Yes."

"Then leave this question for the academy. Study hard there, improve your nurturing and commanding skills, and you’ll find the answer."

"If you have doubts about something, it just means you haven’t learned enough."

Hearing this, Liu Zhihao’s eyes sparkled, and he murmured softly, "Is that so?"

"Of course, that’s so." Chen Yuan nodded and smiled, "Beastmasters who go to academies can go much further."

The so-called academy practitioners are Beastmasters who join the Beast Taming Academy to systematically learn skills related to Beast Taming.

In contrast, there’s Chen Yuan’s unorthodox way.

"But..." Liu Zhihao suddenly looked up at Chen Yuan, pointing to Zhang Hao beside him, and said, "But this uncle here says Zhuang is not your match."

Zhang Hao was shocked, "What did you call me?"

"Uncle?!!"

...

"Students, we’re sorry the nurturing base couldn’t give you the best experience," Li Qian said as she slightly bowed to the students, "Those who have picked a Pet Beast, please proceed with the formalities. Those who haven’t, don’t be discouraged, better Pet Beasts await you."

"It’s okay, Teacher Li, I had a great day!"

"Although I didn’t contract with a Pet Beast, witnessing such an amazing battle made it worth the trip."

"La la la, I contracted with a Wood Leaf Rat!"

"I’ll go to the Pet Beast store to buy a Flame Cloud Falcon, the Flame Cloud Falcon is invincible!"

"Wake up, only Advisor Chen’s Flame Cloud Falcon is invincible."

Listening to the students’ heated discussion, Liu Zhihao was silent, still recalling his earlier conversation with Chen Yuan.

"Join the Beast Taming Academy, and you’ll find the answers."

"I look forward to you becoming an excellent Beastmaster."

.....

"I will," Liu Zhihao said in a low voice.

A student next to him overheard Liu Zhihao talking to himself and asked instinctively, "What will you?"

"I’ll become an excellent Beastmaster," Liu Zhihao answered sincerely, with a serious expression and determination in his eyes.

The student laughed and patted Liu Zhihao on the shoulder, "Yes, we will all become excellent Beastmasters."

"Like Advisor Chen, an outstanding Beastmaster like that."

Liu Zhihao nodded slightly, but in his heart, he was silently reciting, "That was directly told to me by Advisor Chen."

At this moment, a small seed had taken root and begun to sprout in his heart.

...

"Cai, we should get going as well."

Seeing the students leave, Chen Yuan found Cai Hong.

Cai Hong grasped Chen Yuan’s right hand tightly, his eyes full of gratitude, "Advisor Chen, we really appreciate you this time."

"And this driver friend named Zhang."

Zhang Hao’s mouth twitched, but he said nothing.

"In the future, if there are suitable Pet Beasts, please contact us." Cai Hong said again.

"I will," Chen Yuan nodded.

"By the way, Advisor Chen, our base has a batch of unused Pet Beast food. I’ve had someone put it on your car as a small token, I hope you accept it with a smile," Cai Hong said.

Chen Yuan instinctively waved his hand, "This isn’t appropriate."

Cai Hong shook his head, filled with emotion, "You’ve gone to great lengths to bring the Snow Cloud Wolf and made sure these kids who just started their path as Beastmasters didn’t leave disappointed. Your contribution to the nurturing base isn’t something a little bit of food can compare to."

"Then I’ll accept it," Chen Yuan thought of a new big guy that had arrived at the farm, and after careful consideration, decided to accept it.

Watching the pickup truck gradually fade into the distance, Cai Hong stood still for a long time, then took off his glasses, carefully wiped them with a tissue pulled from his pocket, and whispered, "Advisor Chen is truly a good person."

"A person like that is the real top Beastmaster of Baokun City."

With that, he put his glasses on, looked around, and unwittingly, his mentality had undergone a dramatic change, "Bread will have it, milk will have it too."

"Our base will only get better and better."
