Chapter 224: Chapter 224: Participate in the Competition?_1

"Won’t this be too much trouble for you...?"

Qi Chen was somewhat tempted, but considering how Feng Yuan had to rush to the special task force to report every weekend and also had to attend classes, he immediately felt conflicted and waved his hands as Feng Yuan yawned and said,

"Nah, it’s just mixing some medicine, after all. How about this, I’ll write you the list of materials tomorrow, and you can take care of it yourself. Whatever you can’t get, I’ll see when I can... I probably can’t go myself, so I’ll see if I can ask Agunas to help out."

Agunas, who was sleeping soundly, shivered as his tail flicked, clutching the book in his arms tighter and wrapping his robe closely around himself. Qi Chen, somewhat speechlessly, said,

"Agunas is a Divine Beast, is it really okay for you to do this?"

"I’m not forcing it; I’ll just ask, and if it can help, that’s great. If not, there are other people we can find. If all else fails... I’ll see if I can take a day or two off to handle it."

"No need, I’ll definitely find all the materials."

"Then it’s up to you. But if you can’t find everything, you can ask me for help."

"Time correction? Lorraine Tower, are you getting bored too?~"

A sexy woman in a black robe looked with interest at a set of cards in her hand, which were decorated with strange patterns. She tossed the cards into the air, let them drift to the ground, leaned back on the sofa, and said softly,

"I wonder if you’ll still take care of it this time~"

Picking up one of the cards, it depicted an eerie, dark crimson temple with three characters underneath it: "E Hua Temple."

"Is fate giving me another go? Then let’s see if you’ll resolve it this time as well~"

Throwing the card up into the air, the woman propped her hands behind her head and gazed absently at the ceiling.

"Hah~ I’m so sleepy..."

"You’ve been napping all morning on your day off and you’re still sleepy?"

"Maybe it’s time for hibernation."

"Are you a bear... hibernating..."

"Being a bear doesn’t sound too bad~ At least they have good protection against the cold~"

Feng Yuan, as if he heard an interesting suggestion, tapped his lips with his index finger and thought for a moment before saying,

"I remember there are some Spirit Beasts that can transform humans into animals. What do you think about getting them to turn me into a bear?~"

Glancing at Feng Yuan, who was wearing the Wolf God’s Robe, Qi Chen said annoyedly,

"You’re not planning on attending classes? If you turn into a bear, how will you go to class? And don’t you still have to report to the special task force on weekends? You think they’ll allow you to show up to work as a bear?"

"Wu... it’s all because the weather suddenly got cold, otherwise why would I want to turn into a bear~"

"I always feel like you just think transforming is fun."

"That’s an illusion~"

As the two talked, they arrived at the combat training ground. During class, after teaching the lesson and allowing everyone to practice freely, Teacher Yan approached Feng Yuan and said,

"Have you finished your report?"

"Er... Teacher Yan, why would you bring that up?"

"Captain Yan is coming to collect the reports after school, and Chen specifically told me to remind you not to forget."

"Hehe... about that..."

"You still have a report to write?"

Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan speechlessly; ever since Feng Yuan returned, he had not seen him write anything. Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said sheepishly,

"Can I take leave and go back to rush the report?"

Sighing, Teacher Yan said helplessly,

"You can, but wait a minute. Regarding you participating in Maomu City’s Beast Tamer competition, Chen Xin might not be able to join this time, so I hope you can take Qi Chen and the others along."

"Take them along?"

Qi Chen looked at Teacher Yan in surprise, and Feng Yuan, scratching his head in confusion, said,

"I might not even have the time to participate, how can I take them? And it’s not a team competition this time, right? It seems to be scored based on performance, so whether I take them or not shouldn’t make much difference, right?"

"Old Chen told me that Elder Li has decided to temporarily assign you as a security officer before the competition starts, so you can participate directly when it begins."

"Eh? Wait a minute! I remember the competition starts in the morning, right? The opening ceremony is really early... That means I’ll have several hours less rest than the other contestants! That’s not fair!"

Glancing at Feng Yuan, who was complaining, Teacher Yan said calmly,

"You could also use your leave to participate in the competition. Old Chen told me you’ve accumulated quite a few merits, enough to take leave for the competition."

"No! Don’t even think about it! I’m saving those for emergencies!"

"Anyway, ask Old Chen or Captain Yan about the specific arrangements; he didn’t tell me the details."

"As for why it’s Qi Chen and the others, Qi Chen and Dou Yanlan both have special outfits that have been blessed by the White Wolf Deity, right?"

"Are you talking about the Wolf God’s Robe? Just for Coming of the Future, whether or not they are with me doesn’t make much difference, does it?"

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Teacher Yan said irritably,

"This time it’s not about combat. The premise for calculating performance scores is safely getting through this outdoor survival. I believe Coming of the Future definitely won’t last the entire competition, right?"

"That’s true, but..."

"All you need to do is assist them when they can’t use Coming of the Future. I believe you have the means to enable them to maximize their performance."

As Teacher Yan spoke, he put a hand on Feng Yuan’s shoulder,

"Besides, isn’t he your friend?"

Sighing, Feng Yuan said,

"Really... you leave me speechless... But are Qi Chen and the others really going to participate?"

"The team can’t have more than ten members max, so you figure it out."

"Er... Then are you going to participate?"

Qi Chen hesitated, after all, he had never been involved in these events before. Patting Qi Chen on the shoulder, Feng Yuan said,

"Think about it. I need to head back and finish my report."

"Xiao Ji, if you want to practice, do it here on your own but be careful not to hit anyone with your special techniques! The Death Series powers in your moves are getting stronger and stronger, and it really hurts if you hit someone."

Xiao Ji nodded and grabbed the tail of Dreaming Dragon Baby, who wanted to follow Feng Yuan, with his mouth. Dreaming Dragon Baby looked dissatisfied and glanced at Xiao Ji, then, seeing Feng Yuan watching, shrank its head and obediently followed Xiao Ji to train.

"Finally finished writing~"

"Thank you~"

Accepting the tea handed to him by Najia, Feng Yuan expressed his gratitude. Najia smiled and turned back to her upper bunk, busy with something. Big Cat occasionally looked over at Feng Yuan, who packed up the completed report and stretched lazily, then said to Najia,

"Report’s done, I’m heading back to class, please take care of Big Cat."

"Gina~"

As he arrived at the combat field, the bell signaling the end of class rang. Seeing the crowd coming out, Feng Yuan scratched his head. Accepting little Xiao Ji who ran out, he ruffled Xiao Ji’s head and said,

"How come you’re out so early today? Usually, you like to practice until evening, don’t you?"

"Isn’t it because I was worried you’d forget to submit the report? You could actually forget such an important thing."

Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan speechlessly, and with a bright smile at the Xiao Ji in his arms, Feng Yuan said a bit sheepishly,

"Wasn’t I thinking about getting back to class first? Anyway, Captain Yan isn’t coming until after school."

"Forget it, I’ll accompany you to the school gate, just in case you forget again."

With Qi Chen watching him, Feng Yuan went to the school gate only to see that Captain Yan was already waiting there. Feng Yuan took out the report and handed it over, saying,

"This should be good, right?"

"That’s all we need for now, but you should be more cautious lately. All sorts of weird little groups have been popping up. Don’t get involved with them. It might be because of the Luo’an City incident. Just yesterday, Captain Yang took his whole team and arrested every member of the Transcendence Organization and put them in special forces. They just finished interrogations and released them."

"The Transcendence Organization?!"

Qi Chen looked surprisedly at Captain Yan, who frowned and asked with some confusion,

"Is there some issue with that organization?"
