Early the next morning, Lin Fan received a call from his nemesis Wang Hao.
"Lin Fan!" Wang Hao shouted excitedly, "I heard that you've been doing well in the Royal Beast Master Association recently! Can you teach me a few moves? I also want to become a Royal Beast Master!"
Lin Fan was a bit helpless, "This... It's not that easy..."
Wang Hao: "Don't be petty! I'm your best friend!"
Lin Fan: "..."
In the end, Lin Fan had to agree to take Wang Hao to the training ground.
On the training ground, Su Yuqing was practicing her new Royal Beast skill. Her Pho Pho stood in front of her with a soft glow emanating from its body.
"Shield of Starlight!" Su Yuqing lightly droned out, and a star-like curtain of light appeared in front of her, blocking the attack completely.
Wang Hao looked dumbfounded, "This is too handsome!"
Lin Fan nodded, "This is a defense skill of the Golden Star Realm, and it requires a high degree of tacit understanding with the spirit beast in order to perform it."
Wang Hao said enviously, "Lin Fan, can you demonstrate it as well?"
Lin Fan was a bit embarrassed, "I... I'm still practicing..."
Just then, Taotie lazily walked over, "Mortal, do you want this seat to show you?"
Lin Fan: "..."
Taotie opened his mouth and let out a deafening roar, "Nine Devil Flames!"
Black flames erupted from its mouth, instantly burning the targets in the training ground to ashes.
Wang Hao: "..."
Lin Fan: "..."
Su Yuqing: "..."
After the training, Lin Fan and Wang Hao went home together. On the way, Wang Hao couldn't stop talking excitedly, "Lin Fan, you're too good! That black flame is simply awesome!"
Lin Fan was a bit helpless, "That's Taotie's skill, not mine..."
Wang Hao: "It's all the same! You're its royal beast master anyway!"
Lin Fan: "..."
After returning home, Lin Fan found his parents busy in the kitchen.
"Little Fan, come eat!" Mother shouted, "I made your favorite braised pork today!"
Lin Fan's heart warmed, "Thanks mom."
Taotie jumped out from the imperial beast space, his eyes staring straight at the braised pork on the table, "Mortal, this seat wants to eat it too."
Lin Fan: "..."
Father smiled and said, "Let it eat together, it makes a lot anyway."
Taotie nonchalantly jumped onto the table and began to feast.
Mother asked with some concern, "Little Fan, how's your recent cultivation going?"
Lin Fan: "Not bad... It's just that the realm advancement is a bit slow."
His father patted his shoulder, "Don't be anxious, take your time. Cultivation is not something that happens overnight."
Lin Fan nodded, "I know."
Just then, Taotie suddenly raised his head, "Mortal, your parents look delicious."
Lin Fan: "..."
Mother: "..."
Father: "..."
Lin Fan hurriedly explained, "It was joking..."
Taotie: "This seat never jokes."
Lin Fan: "..."
