BXBX NOVEL Chapter 374 - 374 Do As Told
“B*stard! Be good and submit!” Shen Fei grinned, and a cunning look flashed in his eyes.
The Divine Fire Crow’s neck was very thick; the circumference alone was five to six meters. If Shen Fei wanted to strangle it, he had to wrap his legs around it tight. Moreover, his hand could not penetrate the protective ring of feathers. Thus, he could only ride on the back of the Divine Fire Crow and fight it to the death.
Shen Fei knew that this was the only way.
“Squawk…” the Divine Fire Crow cried out sorrowfully. Because Shen Fei was strangling its neck, it had difficulty breathing.
The Divine Fire Crow let out a low groan from its throat. Its eyes looked like they were about to start bleeding.
It opened its beak and prepared to peck at Shen Fei, hoping to avenge itself before it died.
“Hmph!” Shen Fei snorted coldly, his eyes flashing dangerously. The muscles in his right arm tightened, and the veins bulged. The Divine Fire Crow felt the ferocious force on its neck.
“Caw…!” The Divine Fire Crow was horrified. Its neck seemed like it was about to break, and it let out another miserable cry. Its eyes were filled with deep resentment, wishing it could swallow Shen Fei alive.
“Vile creature, cooperate with me, or I’ll kill you right now! Wait until I refine your demonic core and break through to the next realm. I’ll kill you then!” Shen Fei said coldly.
“Caw!” The Divine Fire Crow let out a sorrowful cry. Its eyes became filled with humiliation and anger, but there was nothing it could do.
Shen Fei ignored its wailing and used the Imperial Dragon Technique to absorb the Divine Fire Crow’s blood essence and vital Qi.
After half an hour, Shen Fei finally let go of the Divine Fire Crow’s neck. The Divine Fire Crow was on the verge of death. Its feathers had withered and dried up, losing its original luster. It had completely lost the ability to resist and lay weakly on the ground.
Shen Fei’s eyes narrowed at the Divine Fire Crow, and he said, “Your spirit has been suppressed by me. I won’t hurt you as long as you cooperate well with the Divine Fire Crow outside.”
As he spoke, wisps of black mist emerged from his fingertips and spread toward the Divine Fire Crow. The crow’s eyes were still filled with hatred, but it could no longer resist. A moment later, the Divine Fire Crow’s eyes regained their calmness, and its body gradually warmed up.
After that, Shen Fei left the pocket realm.
When he came out, Aloy asked, “Shen Fei, how is it?”
“It should be enough. Summon the Divine Fire Crow now and see its condition,” Shen Fei said.
Hearing this, Aloy immediately did as she was told. Then, the Divine Fire Crow’s expression changed drastically. The intelligence in its eyes was brighter, and it even carried a trace of humanity.
“Caw!”
The Divine Fire Crow spread its wings and flew high into the sky, circling in the air and cawing happily.
“It really is fine now!” Aloy’s face became excited and she said happily, “Shen Fei, this Divine Fire Crow has fully recognized me as its master! Haha!”
Although the Divine Fire Crow’s strength was not strong, it had a special attribute that allowed it to easily control flames. Now that it had been tamed by Aloy, she would be able to gain a huge advantage in her future fights.
Aloy looked at Shen Fei. Her eyes revealed a gratified expression as she sighed. “Thank you.”
Shen Fei smiled and said, “You’re welcome. The energy in the Divine Fire Crow’s body flows very quickly. It’s similar to the Flame Owl, but it doesn’t have the Phoenix Bloodline. ”
Hearing this, Aloy frowned and muttered to herself, “Isn’t it more likely for this type of spirit beast to have the Phoenix Bloodline?”
Shen Fei shook his head. “I don’t think so. Maybe it’s just the unique fire attribute. Anyways, since you’ve already contracted this Divine Fire Crow, you should keep it and nurture it.”
“Got it!” Aloy nodded heavily.
The Divine Fire Crow was indeed extraordinary, and it was extremely valuable to Aloy.
Suddenly, Aloy noticed the change in Shen Fei’s aura and said in surprise, “Shen Fei, your cultivation has improved a lot!”
She remembered that Shen Fei was only at the third tier of the tempered body realm. But in just two days, he had actually broken through to the peak of the fourth tier. Such progress was unbelievable to her.
Shen Fei shrugged and said, “My cultivation method is strange. Every time I advance a stage, it takes a lot of energy.”
“The academy will be holding a Beast Tamer Tournament in a few days. Will you go?” Aloy asked.
Hearing this, Shen Fei was startled. He had almost forgotten that the annual Beast Tamer Tournament was in a few days.
“Of course I have to participate.” Shen Fei smiled.
“The rewards for the Beast Tamer Tournament are quite generous,” Aloy said.
Shen Fei’s eyes lit up. “What are the rewards?”
“Other than some rare herbs and pills, the most precious item would be that the winner can enter the Scriptures Depository to choose from the beast taming secret archives.” Aloy smiled.
The Scriptures Depository was the foundation of the Imperial Dragon Academy where Shen Fei and Aloy were currently studying at. It was a huge palace with three floors.
The Inheritance Pagoda, Scriptures Depository, and Spirit Beast Mountain each had nine levels, and each level stored all kinds of secret archives.
The Beast Tamer Tournament was held once a year, and it was a grand event. The entire academy’s tens of thousands of students would go to watch, and it was extremely lively.
However, with Shen Fei’s system, and the cultivation room in the mayor’s mansion, there was no need to go to the school’s Scriptures Depository.
Still, Shen Fei excitedly said, “Then I’ll definitely go and join in the fun.”
After all, there was no harm in going. Of course, if he encountered something good, he would not hesitate to take it.
Shen Fei was very ambitious. His wish was to become a Master-tier or even Emperor-tier beastmaster one day. Only then would he dare to find out what happened to his parents and avenge them.
“The Beast Tamer Tournament is a grand event that tests one’s strength. You must be careful,” Aloy warned.
“Don’t worry.” Shen Fei nodded. His strength had soared, and his confidence was bursting.
“Do you have any more details about the event?” Shen Fei asked.
“It will be held in the school square in three days. The time and place are still to be determined. The whole academy will be participating in the tournament,” said Aloy. “You must be well-prepared.”
“I understand.” Shen Fei nodded again.
“Take a break first. I’ll see you at school in three days.” Aloy bid goodbye to Shen Fei and left the house.
Shen Fei sat cross-legged on the bed and adjusted his breathing a few times before summoning the Flame Owl.
Shen Fei stroked the Flame Owl’s head and grinned. “Flame Owl, you have to show off your skills in three days.”
“Coo, coo.” The Flame Owl nodded, indicating that it would definitely help Shen Fei gain some glory.
...
“Hehe, you little glutton, you’re quite sensible.” Shen Fei smiled.
For the next few days, Shen Fei immersed himself in cultivation.
