Chapter 29
Especially the Demonized Sparrows; the Storm Eagle had been killing them for so long, yet their numbers didn't seem to decrease!
"Ding~ Congratulations to the host, your pet beast, the Storm Eagle, has upgraded to peak-grade Black Iron!"
Hearing the notification sound of the Storm Eagle's upgrade, Su Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead, his face full of satisfaction!
His efforts over these days had finally paid off.
The Storm Eagle's level had increased!
Taking a look at the Storm Eagle's attribute panel, Su Yang felt extremely satisfied!
[Name]: Storm Eagle
[Talent]:
1. Son of the Storm (Mythical); 2. Meteor from Beyond (Mythical); 3. Eagle Eye (Common).
[Growth Potential]: Emperor-grade mid-tier
[Strength Level]: Peak-grade Black Iron
[Experience]: 0/3000
[Attribute]: Flying, Wind, Metal
[Loyalty]: 99
[Skills]:
1. Wind Blade; 2. Gale Speed; 3. Rapid Slaughter; 4. Body of Golden Feathers.
In Su Yang's view, the Storm Eagle, possessing two Mythical-grade combat talents, was simply a ruthless killing machine!
The Storm Eagle pecked at the fierce beast's crystal core and swallowed its carcass. Su Yang touched its black feathers to encourage it: "Storm Eagle, keep it up, you'll be able to become a Bronze-grade pet beast soon!"
The Storm Eagle cried out with high fighting spirit, lowered its body, and affectionately rubbed its head against Su Yang's face.
If the Storm Eagle became a Bronze-grade pet beast, his body would be significantly strengthened in a short time, making him a Bronze-grade Beast Master!
Upon becoming a Bronze-grade Beast Master, Su Yang would not only be able to sign a second pet beast but also apply for early graduation and bring his mother and sister to live in the safe Seven Star City!
After the Storm Eagle advanced to peak-grade Black Iron, Su Yang returned to the camp and saw Class 1 students packing their luggage. Only then did he realize it was time for the holiday!
First High School Beast Master students have no weekends; they only get three days off at the end of each month.
Today happened to be the time for the holiday.
Su Yang hesitated for a moment but decided to go home.
After days of high-intensity fighting, he was a bit tired and missed home!
He packed his luggage and boarded the slow bus.
Most of the people on the bus were young Beast Masters, likely all students from Grade 3 of the First High School.
There were also some dusty Beast Masters who were adventuring near Mount Qixing Mountain.
On the bus, there were also students from Class 1, Grade 3, all keeping their distance from him...
After paying ten federal coins, he boarded the worm subway, transferred once, and after more than an hour, Su Yang returned to Termite Town.
At dusk, looking at the tin houses in Termite Town, the black smoke rising from the chimneys, and the dense barbed wire, Su Yang felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
Arriving home, he knocked on the door and saw his mother and sister.
Su Xiaoxiao complained: "Brother, why are you only back now? Brother Zhou Hai from next door came back a long time ago!"
"Hmm, it's brother's fault for making Xiaoxiao wait so long!"
Su Xiaoxiao threw herself into Su Yang's arms, hugged his waist, buried her head in his chest, and muttered: "In consideration of your sincere apology, I'll forgive you!"
"Hmm, Xiaoxiao is the most magnanimous!"
Zhang Zhang Xiuru wiped her hands on her apron and urged: "Alright, Xiaoxiao, come and set the table, son, go wash your hands, let's eat!"
Sitting at the table, Su Yang held his rice, looking at the Demonized Sparrow meat in the dish, feeling a bit helpless!
This must be the one he killed last time! ===== CHAPTER 57 =====
It's been over a month, and they still haven't finished it...
The meat was air-dried, a bit hard, and a bit salty!
Su Yang suddenly regretted that he should have brought a fierce beast carcass back when he left the Mount Qixing Mountain training ground.
Zhang Zhang Xiuru picked up a piece of meat for Su Yang: "Son, how is your study at school?"
"It's okay!"
"How are you getting along with your classmates?"
"Getting along very well!" Su Yang recalled those classmates he had beaten until they were looking for their teeth on the ground, "...They are all quite nice and very kind to me."
"That's good, that's good. Study hard, don't put too much pressure on yourself, just graduate normally!"
Su Xiaoxiao asked: "Brother, when can we move to the city?"
Su Yang stroked Su Xiaoxiao's hair and said with a smile: "Soon, soon, don't worry, Xiaoxiao!"
"Mm-hmm!"
"Eat more!"
"Okay!"
Su Yang looked at his sister's long black hair, which seemed to have some luster!
It must be because she had been eating Demonized Sparrow meat recently, which supplemented her nutrition.
After dinner, Su Yang knocked on the door of Zhou Hai's house; it was Zhou Hai's mother who opened the door.
As soon as Zhou Hai's mother saw Su Yang, she enthusiastically invited him inside and called Zhou Hai down.
Half a month later, Zhou Hai had become much more burly.
As soon as Zhou Hai saw Su Yang, he gave him a big hug.
"Su Yang, you're really awesome!"
"Uh! It's okay, it's okay!"
"Come on, let's go to my room!"
This wasn't the first time Su Yang had been to Zhou Hai's bedroom.
A bed with messy quilts that were never folded.
Two stools, a wooden desk riddled with wormholes, and many textbooks placed on the desk.
The current education system inherited the human civilization from before the Great Cataclysm.
There is also compulsory education, which lasts for six years in total, starting at age seven, with four years of primary school and two years of junior high school.
But this compulsory education is not mandatory!
Whether you come or not, the teachers in the small town won't care.
Many children living outside Seven Star City, after six years of compulsory education, are barely literate and can only do basic arithmetic!
Because they would skip class to go work!
Otherwise, they might not have enough to eat!
In this world, for civilians living outside the base city, just surviving is already very difficult!
Civilians who can awaken the Beast Master talent have truly leaped over the dragon gate!
Zhou Hai closed the door and looked at Su Yang: "Su Yang, you're really too awesome. I heard you skipped grades, and you skipped to the third grade, right!"
"Right!"
Getting a positive answer from Zhou Hai, Su Yang almost knelt down to him!
"Brother Su, I don't know what to say!"
"Say whatever you want to say!" Su Yang laughed, "I just came to see you. After a month of combat training, have you made any progress?"
"I'm not there yet; my Breeze Wolf can't even beat a common low-grade Black Iron fierce beast!"
Zhou Hai's situation is the norm for many civilian Beast Masters!
They find it hard to obtain fierce beast eggs with excellent growth potential and can only rely on the common potential fierce beasts gifted by the authorities to slowly improve their strength!
"It's okay, pet beasts need to grow slowly; I'm just an exception!"
"Of course you're an exception!" Zhou Hai lay on the bed and said, "At first, I was a bit jealous of you, but after hearing you skipped grades, I suddenly didn't feel anything..."
"Hmm?"
Zhou Hai said helplessly: "You're too strong, you left me so far behind that I can't even see your taillights... Since I can't catch up anyway, I just lay flat!"
"Hmm!"
"I didn't tell Auntie Zhang or your sister about you being disciplined by the school, and I even made those students from the First High School in our town shut their mouths!" ===== CHAPTER 58 =====
