Chapter 29: The Ancient Life Tree, Qin Xiaoxue's Fury!
Chapter 29: The Ancient Life Tree, Qin Xiaoxue's Fury!
With a simple statement, the atmosphere instantly turned cold.
And this coldness didn't solely originate from Su Ping; it was mostly due to Qin Xiaoxue, who was already harboring resentment.
Trashy Lynx?
Among these Lynxes, there was even her Majesty Qin's Timberwolf!
Furthermore, the Lynx was not trashy at all!
Thus, Lady Qin's lips curled upward, revealing a smile that Su Ping had never seen on her cheeks before.
Even though she wore sunglasses, her extraordinary beauty was still evident.
However, this might have been acceptable in Linzhou City, but if this smile appeared at the Advanced Beastmaster Academy in Demon Capital, any student who saw it would run as far away as possible, unless they were newcomers who had just enrolled.
Because this smile indicated that the young lady was genuinely angry.
Seemingly sensing its owner's mood, the Timberwolf's body was instantly covered in wooden armor, and the next moment, a massive Lynx appeared before Zhou Shuchen, its sharp claws just half an inch away from the heart of the figure in front of it.
A detached voice echoed in the chilly atmosphere, "How are you a class leader? Didn't Teacher Yang tell you when you enrolled that there are no weak companion beasts, only beastmasters who haven't found the right breeding path?"
Zhou Shuchen stared at the enormous wolf, its eyes filled with icy killing intent, and unconsciously took a step back, almost sitting down on the ground. He looked at Su Ping, who was speaking, and said, "Su Ping, have you gone mad?"
Just then, a figure quickly stepped down from the bus and turned to Qin Xiaoxue, who had taken action, "Who are you? Don't you know that you can't let your companion beast attack people at will? Do you even have the Beastmaster Association in your eyes?"
This was a vigorous voice belonging to a man in his thirties.
Su Ping was slightly startled when he saw this figure.
This person was none other than Zhang Guowei, the director of the sixth grade.
Beside him was another unfamiliar young man, who looked arrogant. However, upon seeing the Lynx and Qin Xiaoxue, he also showed surprise.
Qin Xiaoxue's eyes shifted, and she glanced at the righteous-sounding Zhang Guowei. She smiled again.
Then, a light shone, and a figure that Su Ping had never seen before appeared beside her.
Su Ping was stunned, and so were Zhang Guowei, Zhou Shuchen, and everyone who had gotten off the bus.
It was a giant tree, standing at a height of three meters.
The tree was lush and green, surrounded by endless life force, yet there was an indescribable sense of strangeness.
On the tree trunk, an ancient and peculiar face looked calmly at everyone. What's going on?"
Monarch-level potential, special plant-type companion beast: Ancient Life Tree!
Wait, something's not right! Su Ping couldn't pinpoint what was amiss before, but after contracting with Xiao Qing and gaining a deeper understanding of such companion beasts, he felt it.
This Ancient Life Tree was different from ordinary ones; it was a mutated Ancient Life Tree!
It had a unique scent and aura.
Bloodline mutation!
And this was a Monarch-level companion beast; what value did its mutation hold?
Not only Su Ping but everyone else was stunned as well. Some of the onlookers who knew their stuff even started backing away, afraid to continue watching.
In any era, there are people who are worlds apart from ordinary individuals.
Even an ordinary Monarch-level potential companion beast is beyond the imagination of any ordinary beastmaster, let alone a mutated one.
The difference between Overlord and Monarch ranks might seem like just a level, but it's like comparing heaven and earth!
After seeing this mutated Ancient Life Tree, Zhang Guowei was dumbfounded.
What the hell is this?
"Call the Beastmaster Association and let them handle this. See if they'll do anything about it!" Qin Xiaoxue said as she walked gracefully, her words exuding fearlessness.
However, she was genuinely interested in Su Ping and curious about how he cultivated his companion beast.

"Call the Beastmaster Association and let them handle this. See if they'll do anything about it!" Qin Xiaoxue said as she walked gracefully, her words exuding fearlessness.
Even if I hadn't done anything, if these wolves killed you, it's your fault. You're clueless!"
Zhang Guowei's expression turned extremely unpleasant, and Zhou Shuchen's face paled.
He was just a fresh graduate, and with a starting point that was hard to imagine for his peers, he momentarily became arrogant and forgot about the dangers and terrors of the outside world. Zhang Guowei naturally wouldn't dare to seek help from the Beast Trainer Association or any security department.
Not to mention that Qin Xiaoxue might be telling the truth.
Even if it was a lie, as soon as the Life Ancient Tree appeared, he understood that right and wrong meant nothing to some people.
Just then, Su Ping finally spoke up, "Forget it, let him learn a lesson."
Qin Xiaoxue glanced at Su Ping and realized that these people knew him. This guy who didn't know his place was probably targeting Su Ping alone.
Qin Xiaoxue snorted coldly, and the massive Life Ancient Tree slowly disappeared.
She returned to the wolf pack with the Timberwolf.
Su Ping's expression didn't change, and he even smiled at Zhang Guowei's complex gaze. "Director Zhang, everyone, I'll take the wolves to the Pet Combat Arena. Once you've booked your rooms, come find me later! I'll be waiting."
Everyone watched as the two figures passed them and headed towards the enormous arena ahead.
Su Ping showed no sign of anger, even after leaving the school, he didn't plan to become close friends with these classmates or the school's teachers. But he didn't need to act like a snob and ignore his old classmates.
On the contrary, Qin Xiaoxue's expression remained unpleasant.
However, before the two could walk far, a set of footsteps quickly approached.
"Wait for me, Godfather!"
As expected, Su Ping turned to see the thick-browed Li Shu running over and hugging him. His eyes, however, were fixed on Qin Xiaoxue.
This guy's companion beast was also a plant, but it was just an Elite-grade potential Pine Nut Bomb, a far cry from the Life Ancient Tree.
But it was clear that the reason Su Ping got along with him was due to his unparalleled ability to befriend anyone.
"Hello, beautiful lady. I'm Li Shu, Li of the Wooden Child, a tree of pear blossoms pressing sea boughs. I'm Brother Ping's godson, skilled in the Gentlemanly Six Arts. If you need anything, you can find me."
Qin Xiaoxue looked at this thick-browed guy with suspicion.
Gentlemanly Six Arts? And she should find him if she needed anything?
Could he be a talented breeder like a breeder, mechanic, or necromancer?
But it made sense; to be friends with a genius breeder like Su Ping in this small pond, he must have some extraordinary qualities.
Upon realizing this, she nodded in understanding.
She hadn't heard much about this Gentlemanly Six Arts, and it seemed different from the specialized paths of breeders, mechanics, and necromancers.
But it must be an impressive ability, right?
A line appeared on Su Ping's forehead.
Gentlemanly Six Arts: Stretch, Joy, Ceremony, Music, Filial Piety, and Hemp.
It was said to be the ultimate secret art of keyboard warriors. Mastering one of these arts would ensure victory in online surfing. With all six arts, one could dominate the internet, and no one could stand against them!
However, it was clear that Qin Xiaoxue, a successful Beastmaster, didn't understand this. If she ever sought out Li Shu because of this and realized she had been tricked, the Qin family's young miss would not have a good temper. Su Ping couldn't explain, so he covered his face in exasperation, "Don't pay attention to him. Sometimes, he's like you, not very bright."
Qin Xiaoxue nodded, "I see."
After three seconds, she reacted and glared at Su Ping, "What do you mean by that?"
