Chapter 908: Chapter 909 Trivial Matters

"You probably can’t even participate in the Beast Taming Competition. Otherwise, if a group of superior Divine Beasts descended onto the field, it wouldn’t be a fair match at all."

Lanadi looked at Feng Yuan, speechless, and remarked that in fact, since humans can’t restrain Divine Beasts, if they were to collectively appear on the field, they really wouldn’t know what to do.

Especially since there has been no consensus on whether the same person can become a Divine Pact Maker for multiple Divine Beasts. Although all the Divine Pact Makers seen so far are only associated with one Divine Beast, the Divine Beasts have never said that one person can only be a Divine Pact Maker for a single Divine Beast.

"Speaking of which, are there any restrictions on signing contracts with Divine Beasts? Like can a person only sign a Spirit Beast Contract with one Divine Beast or something?"

Thinking of this, Lanadi looked at Feng Yuan curiously. Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said,

"There’s no such rule. A Spirit Beast Contract is essentially a means for a Divine Beast to transfer power to the human side. It’s different from the Spirit Beast Contract which involves both parties sharing the burden of power. Almost all the pressures on the soul are borne by the Divine Beast side."

"Although multiple Divine Beasts can sign a Spirit Beast Contract with the same person, we generally don’t do such a thing."

Agunas explained, the reason being quite simple – different Divine Beasts have different requirements for their partners, and almost no human can meet the conditions of multiple Divine Beasts at the same time. Even Feng Yuan couldn’t, he was merely a friend to the beings of Lorraine Tower, not a partner.

"So you’re saying, it is indeed possible for multiple Divine Beasts to have the same Divine Pact Maker?"

Lanadi said this as he glanced at Feng Yuan, who shook his head speechlessly and replied,

"I couldn’t possibly participate in the regional Beast Taming Competition; everyone else wouldn’t stand a chance."

Feng Yuan wasn’t joking. Even if he didn’t bring a Divine Beast into battle, Xiao Ji was still by his side. The Dark Ancient Book could enhance Xiao Ji’s strength. What would it matter if the opponent had a Divine Beast? A lower or middle-tier Divine Beast against a top-tier Divine Beast like Xiao Ji in its growth stage? The Dark Ancient Book could elevate Xiao Ji’s strength to Legendary Level.

Indeed, now that Xiao Ji had evolved and switched from using "Coming of the Future" to the Dark Ancient Book, that was the reason; it was truly hard to predict the outcome of battles against them, and furthermore, Feng Yuan could actually fight himself. The regional Beast Taming Competition hadn’t prohibited contestants from using their own weapons.

"Seems so."

Lanadi nodded, and Feng Yuan looked at Yang Hongzhi curiously, asking,

"Speaking of which, haven’t you joined the Special Duty Team yet?"

"No, I’m not interested in that. They’re probably quite frustrated about it."

Yang Hongzhi said with a slight chuckle. His situation was indeed quite special. Wu Feng had joined the defense team’s training camps from a young age and had enjoyed their care, developing an affinity for the local defense force. In his case, before signing a Spirit Beast Contract with Najia, he had followed a completely ordinary growth path. He hadn’t even heard of the defense force, let alone the Special Duty Team until he joined the academy.

"Such special cases must be rare. For them, it’s probably just a minor regret. But if I remember correctly, doesn’t Great Xia have an Elder Council specifically for you powerful individuals?"

Lanadi said with a smile. Gladys shook her head and replied,

"He’s not eligible at the moment; he’s not of the right age. The Elder Council has a minimum age requirement, and there are also restrictions for citizens of Great Xia – anyone who hasn’t been a member for at least five years cannot join."

"How do you know so much?"

Lanadi looked at Gladys curiously. Wasn’t she traveling around previously? How come she was so well-informed about Great Xia’s circumstances? Gladys smiled and said,

"I learned about this a while ago since I’ve been here for quite some time. And because of him, the Elder Council sent people over here."

"Heh heh~ That was just an accident."

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan chuckled brightly. Yang Hongzhi looked at the other three and said to Feng Yuan,

"Then I’ll go back to training. If there’s anything else, come find me."

"Where have you been running off to?"

Seeing the Little Ice Cream on Feng Yuan’s shoulder, Qi Chen was somewhat speechless. Had he run off to trick some Spirit Beasts into following him again? How come he had brought back two Spirit Beasts they had never seen before? The Little Ice Cream on Feng Yuan’s shoulder curiously stared at Qi Chen and, after a while, yawned as if wanting to rest, curling up into a ball resembling a scoop of ice cream directly on Feng Yuan’s shoulder.

"I was just roaming around with Lanadi, what’s up?"

"You roam around and trick two Spirit Beasts into coming back with you?"

Qi Chen eyed the Little Ice Cream on Feng Yuan’s shoulder.

"You’re bringing back so many Spirit Beasts; can you take care of them all?"

"No problem~"

Feng Yuan said, glancing at Agunas out of the corner of his eye, only to find the other party had turned his back and was completely ignoring him. Scratching his head cheerfully, Feng Yuan turned to Veronia and said,

"I’ll have to trouble you with the little lizard."

"Of course, that’s my Beast Tamer responsibility."

"Of course," Veronia said matter-of-factly, causing Qi Chen to pause in surprise and respond,

"Beast Tamer? Veronia’s?"

"Is that not allowed?"

The other party glanced at Qi Chen with what seemed like dissatisfaction, and Agunas flicked its tail, saying,

"Although there’s no rule saying Divine Beasts can’t become Beastmasters, doing so is perhaps a bit..."

"Little Crocodile! You planning to challenge me again?"

Veronia looked at Agunas provocatively. Agunas flicked its tail again, appearing to ignore her. Qi Chen was puzzled as to why these two Divine Beasts never seemed to stop quarreling. Remembering the phenomenon that covered Cha Mu Town the night before, he turned speechlessly to Feng Yuan and said,

"You didn’t stay overnight in Cha Mu Town last night, did you?"

"Yeah, how did you know?"

Feng Yuan asked with some confusion—he didn’t recall mentioning it. Holding his forehead, Qi Chen replied,

"With the commotion you caused last night, how do you think I’d know?"

"It’s got nothing to do with me; they started fighting and things just escalated on their own."

Feng Yuan spoke as if it wasn’t his concern, although Qi Chen felt that he might not be telling the whole truth.

"You’d better be careful not to let them make too much of a fuss."

Qi Chen cautioned, for if Agunas and Veronia kept causing such disturbances every few days, it would be hard to explain to the Special Duty Team. Feng Yuan shrugged helplessly and said,

"There’s nothing I can do about it; they just don’t seem to get along."

Feng Yuan patted Xiao Ji’s head and smiled,

"At least Xiao Ji is well-behaved~"

Following Feng Yuan’s words, Agunas and Veronia huffed, turned their backs, and Big Cat meowed innocently. Qi Chen seemed to recall something and looked at Feng Yuan to ask,

"Has Lanadi and her group left?"

"No, Gladys is staying behind, probably planning to pursue Teacher Yan."

"Really?"

Qi Chen was taken aback; he hadn’t expected Gladys to take an interest in Teacher Yan? Although his abilities were decent by Maomu City standards, with his experience traveling so many places, it didn’t seem likely that he’d be regarded as very powerful, and Teacher Yan was neither particularly advantageous in looks nor age.

"Maybe it’s due to Lanadi’s previous call for help; perhaps only she herself knows the exact reason."

Feng Yuan shrugged indifferently. Compatibility was hard to define—so long as it wasn’t cross-species, which he had seen but never quite accepted.

"Let’s not talk about that. How’s your training going? Confident about the assessment? Need me to get a sneak peek at the exam questions for you?"

Feng Yuan sat on his bed with a mischievous grin, looking at Qi Chen, who could only mutely stare back, responding grudgingly,

"It’s a serious crime if you’re caught leaking examination questions! Even someone like you wouldn’t get off freely. Can you please not stir up trouble for them?"

"Hehe~ I’m just trying to help you~"

Feng Yuan laughed as he took Little Ice Cream off his shoulder. But Little Ice Cream didn’t seem to want to leave and immediately jumped back to its original spot as soon as Feng Yuan loosened his grip.

"You rascal, fine, you can stay there a bit longer."

Feng Yuan said in a resigned manner as Little Ice Cream happily curled up to rest. Meanwhile, Xiao Ji hummed unhappily. Patting Xiao Ji gently, Feng Yuan smiled and said,

"Come on, let’s take a bath together~"

Xiao Ji’s feathers bristled in irritation as it chirped a few times at Feng Yuan, and then Qi Chen said to him,

"By the way, the item you wanted—Zhong Liuyan brought it over for you. It’s right there."

Glancing at the gift box neatly wrapped on the table, Feng Yuan looked at Xiao Ji and said,

"Aren’t you going to guess what it is?"
