Chapter 108: Transformation, Cai Xing Lu!

Yu Zhangsheng walked into the Affairs Hall and saw a man pointing at another young man, speaking coldly.

Yu Zhangsheng had seen that young man once before; he was an Outer Sect Disciple of Yushou Peak from the same cohort as him, apparently named Mu Zeyu, two years older, and now at Ling Qi Liu Chong Tian.

He didn't know the other man very well, but there were disciples nearby who recognized him.

"Lei Kai is lecturing newcomers again, hehehe, this guy is just like that, almost forty years old and still hasn't broken through to Qi Refining Ninth Layer, yet he's embarrassed to scold others."

"You can't say that; Qi Refining Eighth Layer at forty is considered excellent among us Outer Sect Disciples, he has some capital to educate others."

"Just relying on his age to sell his seniority; if it were me, I wouldn't bother paying attention to him."

"His personality easily offends people; look at that new disciple, at nineteen or twenty he's already at Qi Refining Sixth Layer, who knows, in twenty years he might reach Qi Refining Peak and break through to Foundation Establishment; if you offend him now, who bullies whom later is hard to say."

"There are still many senior brothers; for this competition, I remember several Qi Refining Peak cultivators in their fifties or sixties participated; their talent is said to be comparable to Lei Kai's."

"Those with truly strong talent have long entered the Inner Sect; how could it be our turn? We old disciples are just green leaves to set off these new disciples as fresh flowers; I still don't know the high-level plans of Yushou Peak, but even if these older Outer Sect Disciples perform well, it's hard for them to be accepted as Inner Chamber Disciples."

"That's true, sigh, the further one cultivates, the more one feels the gap; do you think there will be a new disciple standing out this time?"

"Hard to say; every year there are a few; haven't you heard that the neighboring Alchemy Conference produced two Alchemy Prodigies?"

"Oh, I know; one of them is from our peak; I remember his name is Yu something."

"Yu Zhangsheng!"

"Right!"

The two disciples beside them were chatting when suddenly one disciple widened his eyes, then patted his companion, hinting with his gaze.

It's him! Since Yu Zhangsheng made a name for himself at the Alchemy Conference, quite a few Yushou Peak disciples have paid attention to him, thanks to a certain disciple's Recording Shadow Stone.

Yu Zhangsheng heard every word of their conversation clearly.

He looked toward Mu Zeyu, only to see the other man with his head down and face flushed red from what Lei Kai said, looking like he dared to be angry but not to speak.

The gap in Realm made this Mu Zeyu dare not talk back.

Yu Zhangsheng walked to the counter and said calmly: "If you want to sign up, just sign up; why care about others' opinions?"

"Senior Brother, sign me up too; this is my Disciple Token."

The counter disciple was surprised for a moment, then took it, flipped it over, and saw the three large characters Yu Zhangsheng engraved on it.

Lei Kai looked at Yu Zhangsheng, his expression somewhat displeased, and shouted: "Which disciple are you, popping out from where? Don't see that I haven't signed up yet? Don't know the rules?"

Yu Zhangsheng didn't even glance at him, saying: "You haven't occupied the sign-up spot; as for rules, I'm afraid you can't teach me."

Lei Kai, hearing this, was so angry he sucked in a breath, nearly flying into a rage.

But he was also someone with a brain; having hung around the Outer Sect for so long, he knew who could be offended and who was hard to bully.

Seeing Yu Zhangsheng's neither humble nor arrogant demeanor, he knew the other party was very confident, which left Lei Kai unsure for a moment, not daring to say harsh words to lecture the other party.

"Hmph, interesting, Junior Brother, sign me up too!"

"I want to see just how remarkable you are in Beast Taming!"

Lei Kai coldly laughed, handed his Disciple Token to the counter disciple, and signed up.

Soon, after the counter disciple finished registering, Lei Kai flicked his sleeve and left.

Mu Zeyu's expression improved a lot; after stepping forward to register, he looked gratefully at Yu Zhangsheng and said: "Thank you, Senior Brother."

"You're polite." "There are still a few days; nurture your Spirit Beast more, there's a chance." Yu Zhangsheng smiled.

The other's snow leopard beast fur was silver-white, eyes lively, claws lustrous; one look and it was clear it was well-raised.

A low Beast Tamer Realm doesn't matter much, because their skill lies in their Spirit Beast; Yu Zhangsheng scanned this snow leopard beast shallowly with Divine Sense—First Rank Seventh Layer, not weak.

If Mu Zeyu had another Spirit Beast as support, with decent luck, he might pass the First Round.

After hearing Yu Zhangsheng's encouragement, Mu Zeyu perked up quite a bit, nodded, and thanked him again.

After leaving the Affairs Hall, Yu Zhangsheng returned to the Wooden Hut, not taking what had just happened to heart.

Lei Kai? Offending him is offending him, unimportant.

He hid in Yushou Peak to cultivate, not to swallow anger and not dare to speak; when it's time to be low-key, he can be low-key, but when it's time to be high-key, he should be high-key; only then can he avoid some unnecessary trouble.

Otherwise, once he gets used to being a grandson, it's not hiding anymore, it's being stupid!

Caution, prudence, better fit his understanding of hiding.

"Come out, Qing Hua Lu."

Yu Zhangsheng made a Hand Seal and summoned the Qing Hua Lu.

After the Qing Hua Lu came out, its pair of big eyes stared at Yu Zhangsheng, obviously very dissatisfied.

Recently staying in the Inner Landscape, it was either provoked by the Stupid Snake or disturbed by the Stupid Eagle's chirping, far from the quiet life in the Beast Garden!

If not for Yu Zhangsheng feeding it delicious food every day, it would have kicked him in anger! "Alright, alright, it's my fault; I didn't notice your temperament is a bit different from theirs; from now on I'll often let you out to play."

Yu Zhangsheng comforted.

The Qing Hua Lu snorted, looking like 'you know what's good for you.'

"Youyou!"

Then it raised its head and called out twice, roughly meaning to ask what summoning it out at this time was for.

"It's time for your Transformation; before, you also heard the Red Tempered Snake and Golden Winged Great Eagle say it's just that your Transformation cost is too great, so it's been delayed until now." Yu Zhangsheng explained.

The Qing Hua Lu half-understood, somewhat confused.

Really the same as what the Stupid Snake and Stupid Eagle said—pat the head and Transform? It's not a little deer that knows nothing; having been in the Beast Garden for so long, it naturally knows Spirit Beast Transformation is a process of growth.

Every stage requires a Beast Tamer to slowly nurture; how could it be just patting the head? Moreover, it's a Third Rank Demonic Beast bloodline, growing slowly; the mature body probably needs to reach Second Rank, and as for the Complete Body, there's only a chance at Third Rank.

Many Qing Hua Lu, after reaching Second Rank Transformation to become Cai Xing Lu, are fixed for life; Third Rank Complete Body is very, very hard to Transform, unless there's a huge Opportunity.

So the Qing Hua Lu, hearing this, had always maintained a skeptical attitude, but seeing the Red Tempered Snake and Golden Winged Great Eagle both in Complete Body state, it secretly looked forward to it in its heart, hoping this matter was true.

"Rest assured, I won't lie to you." Yu Zhangsheng patted its head and smiled.

The Qing Hua Lu shook its tail, its pair of big eyes blinking and staring at Yu Zhangsheng.

Yu Zhangsheng's mind moved.
