Beast Taming Patrol

“I understand now.” Lin Su suddenly realized.

“By that time, we need to raise our ranking as much as possible,” Lin Ye smiled, “In the Yin Yang Body Refining Pool, there are ten Body Refining platforms, each with a differing effect. The selection of platforms is done according to the rankings of both families at the meet. So, the higher our current ranking, the more benefits we will gain once we’re inside the secret realm.”

Lin Su nodded in comprehension.

This was information Lin Zhen Nan had not mentioned before.

At that time, Lin Zhen Nan had only explained the basics, perhaps overlooking this part of the information.

If that’s the case, then he had yet another reason to do his utmost to improve his ranking.

As Lin Su pondered, a slight commotion suddenly erupted at the entrance of the grand martial arena.

“The Yun Family people have arrived!” Lin Ye muttered softly, turning to look in that direction.

Lin Su said nothing, equally curious to observe the newcomers from the Yun Family.

The Yun family disciples were led by two middle-aged individuals, and while he couldn’t recognize them, one must be the Yun family’s Patriarch.

Following them were eleven Yun family disciples.

But Lin Su’s gaze was quickly drawn to a young girl standing at the forefront of the Yun disciples.

She was a girl with a black ponytail, sporting a tight-fitting outfit, and carrying a green and red longbow on her back. Her face conveyed a proud aloofness that kept others at a distance. Her delicate features bore a sharp aura, and most striking were her bright golden-red eyes.

Lin Su was attracted by the girl’s unique eyes.

“Damn… Zhenzhen is really here, huh,” Lin Ye frowned, “That means we probably can’t get the first place this time.”

Hearing Lin Ye’s words, Lin Su’s heart stirred slightly.

The girl was Yun Zhenzhen, and Lin Su was not too surprised.

Of the eleven, her temperament was the most unique; she was no bit player, but at least a supporting character.

What he cared about was something else.

Lin Ye had grown up playing with his original self, and according to Lin Su’s father, Yun Zhenzhen often sought out his original self as a child…

Could it be that Lin Ye knew how his original self and Yun Zhenzhen actually got along?

After all, she was a girl involved with his original self, and Lin Su couldn’t truly be completely indifferent.

It would be good to hear some gossip.

With this thought, Lin Su’s interest piqued, and he elbowed Lin Ye, “My father said Zhenzhen often played with me as a kid? Were she and I on good terms?”

“Ha? Zhenzhen playing with you?” Lin Ye’s face showed an expression of disbelief, “Uncle… Uncle sure is euphemistic, huh?”

“…What do you mean?” Lin Su vaguely sensed something ominous.

“You see…” Lin Ye coughed lightly, lowering his voice, “The Yun family mainly practices archery, you know that, right?”

“I know,” Lin Su nodded.

Most of the eleven Yun disciples were carrying longbows behind them.

He had also heard that the Yun family’s Patriarch excelled in the art of archery, known as the Jade Bow, hence many Yun disciples were archers.

“When we were kids…” Lin Ye looked oddly expressive, “It’s true that Zhenzhen often sought you out, but generally she was the one shooting arrows, and you were the one dodging, so…”

“Uncle calls this playing with you?”

Lin Su: “???”

This felt somewhat like bullying.

The empathy was too strong; he was starting to feel indignant on behalf of his original self!

It was infuriating!

He had really thought that his original self and the girl named Yun Zhenzhen had some secret little history.

Something like a young man gallivanting on a bamboo horse, playing around a bed of green plums?

Or some private lifelong promise made in naive childhood?

And it turned out to be this?

Indeed, women are but stumbling blocks on the road to becoming stronger!

“Then, never mind.” Lin Su shook his head in resignation, shifting his gaze from the people of the Yun family back to Qiuqiu and Ghost, and started chatting leisurely with the two pets.

He didn’t notice that after he looked away, in the midst of the Yun crowd, those bright golden-red eyes swiftly glanced through the Lin family’s seating area and finally settled on him.

Seeing Lin Su’s affectionate interaction with the two pets, a flicker of peculiarity flashed through those beautiful eyes, then quickly faded away.

With her gaze withdrawn, the high ponytailed girl’s face took on a pensive look.

Daddy said that Lin Su had become a Beast Tamer, it seemed to be true indeed.

It couldn’t be that her juvenile ignorance in constantly using archery to bully him had caused him a psychological shadow towards martial arts, could it?

Hmm… it shouldn’t be…

After all, back then, just shooting a few non-lethal arrows at him would make him cry his eyes out; becoming a Beast Tamer suited him okay.

However, that Frost Flower Dream Shadow was quite cute.

This guy really was a sucker for looks, back then even borrowing money from her to buy various cute pets.

It seems he still hasn’t paid back the money!

Never mind, as a lady favored by the heavens, she had plenty of magnanimity and wouldn’t fuss over it with him!

Yun Zhenzhen shook her head, pushing the thoughts aside.

A childhood playmate was, to her at this moment, nothing more than a memory of the past.

Having encountered numerous martial prodigies within the Southern Region Martial Academy, the young girl’s perspective had long since changed.

Her current goal was the great competition among the kingdoms.

That was a battlefield exclusive to the prodigies of the kingdoms, the very place she aspired to be.

…

With the arrival of the Yun family, there was naturally no reason to delay the martial meet anymore.

Soon, the Yun family members took their places in their circle, and the eight Lin Family participants did the same.
