"Hmm? Lanlan, you're done already?"

When Huang Tielan returned to the tent with her female classmates, the girls who were with her today looked at her in surprise. The girl named Tingting even made a strange face. The other girls also had weird smiles on their faces, making Huang Tielan blush.

Huang Tielan turned angry in embarrassment and pushed Tingting down on her sleeping bag. Her hand reached into Tingting's clothes and said, "What do you mean, done? You think everyone is like you, with a head full of dirty thoughts!?"

Tingting tried her best to struggle free, but she was no match for Huang Tielan. She cried out repeatedly from the fondling and pleaded for mercy, "Please spare me, Queen Lan. I was wrong, I was wrong…"

The girls fooled around for some time and talked among themselves. The tent gradually fell silent...

------

The next morning, the whole camp livened up once the sky lit up. All the students packed their belongings and gathered at the central area of the camp. Afterwards, they set off for Bei Du City, ending this short trip to the beast world.

Although this trip was very short, everyone had learned a huge lesson, realizing that danger was everywhere. Not only were there hidden dangers from the exotic beasts hiding in the dark, the evil cult beastmasters were even more dangerous!

A total of eight students had died in the incident yesterday, and more than forty were injured. It was considered heavy casualties.

Soon, escorted by the experts from the university and the military, all the students gathered in an orderly manner and made their way in the direction of the safety zone. Everyone had subdued beasts to ride on and so they weren't slow. They'd leave the safety zone and be back in Mercury in about two hours.

Zhang Che was accompanying Huang Tielan. They requested a leave of absence from the school leaders, then bade farewell to the students she had been travelling with yesterday.

Zhang Che had repeated once more that they should go to the Premium House if they needed to buy beast cards, and that a ninety-nine percent discount would be given to them if they mentioned his name.

Jiang Chao and the other students were very grateful for this, especially Jiang Chao. He felt like this trip wasn't wasted at all.

Not only did he gain Zhang Che's friendship, his clan could also develop further through business with the Huang family, extending their influence into Bei Du City.

It was something a regional clan couldn't buy with money!

To paint a clearer picture, the business circles in Bei Du was controlled by the local clans and factions. Without consent from them, clans from other cities wouldn't have it easy if they tried to expand their businesses into Bei Du.

After establishing a business relationship with the Huang family, the Jiang family from Qinzhou in northwest Hua Xia would be able to conduct business in Bei Du. At that time, they'd surely draw envy from other foreign clans.

As for Jiang Chao himself, he was even more excited! After this incident, he was sure that there wouldn't be anyone opposing his becoming the next clan patriarch. Although his actions yesterday were rather risky, the rewards he had gained were completely worth it!

The large group moved quickly in the direction of the safety zone. On the way, the school and military security forces paid close attention to their surroundings. Whenever other beastmaster teams came in their direction, they would be warned away sternly, whether if they had any ill intentions or not.

After the ambush from the evil cult beastmasters yesterday, everyone was easily alarmed, and worried that other evil cult beastmasters would launch another wave of attacks.

Fortunately, nothing happened on their way back. The huge group returned to the safety zone safely, then exited the spatial gateway grandly and arrived at the military camp nearby. A series of large buses were parked at the site, filling up the whole area. There were close to a hundred of them, looking quite spectacular.

After everyone boarded the buses in an orderly manner, the fleet slowly moved out, leaving the military camp. Escorted by a series of military vehicles, the buses drove off towards Bei Du City.

------

At the same time as the groups left the safety zone, the matter about Bei Du University freshmen being attacked by the evil cult beastmasters also spread quickly. The government and the higher-ups in the military learned about this.

Both the government and the military were shocked to learn about the matter. Soon, they formed a joint investigation team and began acting quickly. They began by raiding all the evil cults, or organizations suspected to be one, in Bei Du City.

The wave of raids eventually extended to all the large cities in Hua Xia, with Bei Du as the center. Huge numbers of beastmasters were arrested. After filtering them carefully and interrogating the captives, they discovered large numbers of evil cult organizations hiding underground and some beastmaster groups who were fighting against the evil cults.

While the buses were on their way back, the evil cult beastmasters they had caught yesterday had already been transferred to the relevant departments with military vehicles, and they were conducting extremely strict interrogations on them.

After this incident, the evil cult organizations in Hua Xia had become the target of scorn. Everyone was looking to bring them down.

However, the elites of the evil cult organizations controlled by the supreme demon's clones were hardly affected. Their core members were more or less under control. No matter how fierce the interrogation was, the authorities were unable to get any useful information out of them.

Despite the Huang family using the Psychedelic Ghost-Patterned Butterfly in their interrogations, they were similarly unable to obtain any useful information. After the Psychedelic Ghost-Patterned Butterfly used its skills on those controlled beastmasters, they suddenly died just as they were about to spill some information.

The Huang family was helpless about this in the end, and could only pin their hopes on the government and military's joint investigation team, hoping they could find the headquarters of those evil cult organizations as soon as possible and eradicate them.

Even though they were unable to get anything useful from the mouths of those evil cult members, the government and the military's joint operation could still slowly search for the nest of the evil cult using other methods.

After all, it was impossible for the evil cult to not leave any traces behind if they wanted to take in new members.

------

All of that was no longer related to Zhang Che, however.

After sending off the Bei Du University students, he and Huang Tielan mounted the Purple Jade Condor and quickly flew off in a random direction deeper into the beast world.

He was only going to help Miss Tienan advance to Tier Four. There was no need to specially find a good location to train. They only needed to explore slightly deeper into the beast world and look for a place with a higher population of mid-tier beasts, and they could stop and start their massacre.

It was only then that Huang Tielan realized they were actually not flying on his dragon. She couldn't help but ask, "Hmm? Zhang Xiaoche, where's your Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon?"

Truthfully speaking, the riding experience on the Purple Jade Condor was trash compared to the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon. If they flew just a little fast, they would need to shout just to converse.

If they went even faster… well, they couldn't do that. Otherwise, Huang Tielan wouldn't be able to withstand the strong wind, given her physique.

It was very difficult to hear Huang Tielan with all the wind whistling. Luckily, Zhang Che's senses were much higher than ordinary people and he heard her clearly. He answered in a similarly loud voice, "Yesterday Hanming flew too fast and his origin is a little injured. He's recuperating right now. It'll be a few days' time before he can come out."

Huang Tielan came to a sudden realization. It was no wonder the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon was moved at such shocking speed yesterday. It turned out he had injured his origin! She quickly asked worriedly, "Ah? Is he okay?"

She knew the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon was Zhang Che's strongest beast, and was his flying mount at the same time. It would affect him greatly if the dragon was hurt too badly.

Zhang Che smiled, "It's fine. He'll recover with a few days' rest. Eh? There seems to be quite a number of mid-tier exotic beasts over there. Let's go there to hunt."

While speaking, Zhang Che saw a spot to land and had the Purple Jade Condor descend.

Logically speaking, even though Huang Tielan wasn't weak, it was very difficult for her to hunt mid-tier exotic beasts quickly. It was an almost impossible task.

However, she had a powerful nanny by her side!

Afterwards, Zhang Che didn't even need Huang Tielan to do anything herself. Not even he needed to do anything. Zhang Che only needed to let his capable babies spread out and capture the mid-tier exotic beasts, then torture them until they were half-dead and let Huang Tielan deal the final blow.

Although she wouldn't train herself very well this way, Zhang Che didn't care about that. What was most important was for Huang Tielan to advance to Tier Four beastmaster first. There'd be plenty of time for her to train her fighting ability in the future.

Moreover, Huang Tielan wasn't a greenhouse flower with no actual combat experience to her name at all. When the subdued beasts she had were stronger, naturally she'd be able to display powerful attack prowess!

With that, the speed at which Huang Tielan killed mid-tier beasts could be said to be terrifying.

At the end of the day, Zhang Che had more than ten subdued beasts and pets at legend-quality and above. With so many powerful beasts on the move, they'd bring back at least one half-dead mid-tier exotic beast back every minute, and Huang Tielan was fatigued just dealing the final blows to them.

With a super nanny by her side, it wouldn't be very difficult for Huang Tielan to advance to Tier Six beastmaster in the future!

It was only when she was attempting to advance from mid-tier to high-tier beastmaster that her speed would fall drastically, given the required number of exotic beasts was too high, in addition to the fact that five and six-star exotic beasts would be harder to capture.

However, none of this was certain. Zhang Che would surely have become stronger by then. Perhaps he'd be able to capture even high-tier low-quality exotic beasts easily. It wouldn't be too much of a problem to let Huang Tielan break through then!

-------

"Woah, Zhang Xiaoche, I almost can't keep up with this anymore. Can you have your babies go a little slower? These exotic beasts' skins are really thick! Killing them takes quite a bit of effort!"

The day had passed slowly. Huang Tielan's arm had gone limp from all the killing.

Even though she was wielding a dark gold-quality Mutated Puffersword, the weapon's level was too low. Some of the mid-tier exotic beasts with tougher defenses would take quite a bit of effort from her just to deal the killing blow.

This was truly a blissful problem for Miss Tienan. Zhang Che couldn't help but burst into laughter when he heard that. "Hahahaha, then you have to work harder! It'd be too much of a waste if a backlog of goods accumulates!"

Zhang Che was already thinking about what kind of weapon he should swap to Huang Tielan when she advanced to Tier Four beastmaster. The two-star Mutated Puffersword was indeed a little too weak...
