Chapter 11 - The Mystery of the Crystal Stone

After returning to the association, Chen Tianming carefully studied the black crystal.

"This crystal contains a powerful dark energy." Chen Tianming said, "It could be the root cause of the spirit beast riot."

Lin Fan asked curiously, "What could it be?"

Chen Tianming shook his head, "It's too early to tell. However, Lin Fan, you have done a great job this time."

Lin Fan was a little embarrassed, "Actually, it's all because of Taotie..."

Chen Tianming smiled, "No need to be modest. By the way, next you have to take the association's examination. If you pass, you'll be able to officially become a Royal Beast Master."

Lin Fan: "???"

After returning home, Lin Fan paralyzed on the sofa, feeling sore all over. Taotie, on the other hand, was lying on the coffee table, munching on a bag of potato chips.

"Mortal, your snacks are too little." Taotie said in dissatisfaction, "This seat can't even eat enough."

Lin Fan rolled his eyes, "Didn't you just eat a Shadow Leopard in the forest?"

Taotie: "That was just an appetizer."

Lin Fan: "..."

Just then, the doorbell rang. Lin Fan opened the door and found that it was his nemesis Wang Hao.

"Lin Fan!" Wang Hao rushed in excitedly, "I heard that you've been doing well in the Imperial Beast Master Association recently!"

Lin Fan was a bit embarrassed, "Not bad..."

Wang Hao looked at Taotie, "Is this your spirit beast? It looks quite impressive!"

Taotie glanced at Wang Hao: "Mortal, your friend looks delicious."

Wang Hao: "..."

Lin Fan hurriedly rounded up, "It's joking..."

Wang Hao laughed dryly, "That... Lin Fan, can you teach me a few moves? I also want to become a Royal Beast Master!"

Lin Fan: "..."

Early the next morning, Lin Fan arrived at the training ground on time. Su Yuqing was already waiting there.

"Today we're going to have a practical training." Su Yuqing said, "Your opponent is Jack."

Lin Fan: "???"

Jack walked over, followed by the majestic lion. He smiled and said to Lin Fan, "Ready?"

Lin Fan looked at Taotie, "Are you okay with this?"

Taotie yawned lazily, "A mere beast, how dare you take offense in front of this seat?"

As soon as the battle began, Jack's lion pounced. Taotie yawned disdainfully and slapped the lion away with a claw.

Jack: "..."

Lin Fan: "..."

Su Yuqing: "..."

After the training, Lin Fan was called to Chen Tianming's office.

"Lin Fan, your performance was very good." Chen Tianming smiled, "However, your spirit beast seems a bit... Special."

Lin Fan: "..."
