Chapter 228: Extreme Cold Ice Lotus Delivered
"Ah, this..."
Seeing Zheng Yang, who had been so aggressive just moments ago, scared into collapsing on the ground in an instant, the surrounding onlookers couldn't help but stare in stunned disbelief.
Pfft~~
Then, a burst of laughter rang out from somewhere, as if it had flipped some unseen switch.
In an instant, all the surrounding student onlookers burst out laughing.
"......"
At this moment, Zheng Yang, slumped on the ground, felt as if his cheeks were burning hot.
From childhood to now, he had never suffered such a great humiliation!!
But he wasn't a fool either.
Although he was only a Breeder, at Level 24, he wasn't someone who would be easily intimidated by just any random nobody.
The fact that a single glance could trigger such a strong warning from his body only proved that the opponent's strength was immense!
It seemed he had kicked an iron plate this time!
As a scion of a noble house, he naturally knew what to do in this situation.
He took a deep breath, forcing this humiliation deep into his heart.
A smile once again plastered on his face, he stood up and tried to ingratiate himself:
"Brother, it's all a misunderstanding... feel free to take this Gale Wolf cub."
However, when he looked ahead, the two figures were already long gone.
"Brother Zheng, they've already left."
Liu Zhixue reminded him somewhat awkwardly.
"Do I need you to tell me that?!"
Zheng Yang glared.
This time, he had truly embarrassed himself beyond measure.
He even vaguely saw several other noble scions within the Magic Pet Market laughing at him brazenly...
"Reappraise the qualifications and Grade of every Magic Pet immediately. I don't want this kind of situation happening again!"
Waving the rest of them away in annoyance, Zheng Yang still felt a lingering unwillingness in his heart.
But he also knew that this Epic Rank magical beast cub was most likely gone for good.
Nearly 1,500 credits, 100 million Zhongxia coins!
Zheng Yang felt his heart bleeding!
Amidst his heartache, he couldn't help but wonder.
Who on earth was this guy?
How could he be this strong just from his aura alone??!!
Leaving the Magic Pet Market.
On the way.
Jiang Churan was still kneading the Gale Wolf cub, and the little fellow had seemingly resigned itself to its fate, no longer struggling.
Even squeezed against that soft spot, it kneaded with its paws.
Its eyes squinted, seeming to enjoy it a little.
Today, Jiang Churan was wearing a plain-colored dress. If it were an ordinary girl,
wearing this outfit would only give off a pure, fresh vibe.
But with her proud, eye-catching figure, she somehow managed to give it a sultry charm instead.
Coupled with the soft, cute little ball of fluff that was the Gale Wolf cub in her arms, she attracted quite a few gazes along the way.
Of course, Zhou Yi beside her was no slouch either.
Tall and sturdy, with a resolute and handsome face.
A pair of clear, distinct black-and-white eyes, as beautiful as stars in the night sky.
The two of them walking together made for a particularly well-matched pair.
"Brother Zhou Yi, this little wolf cub is so well-behaved!"
Jiang Churan said in amazement.
Generally speaking, a magical beast cub that had just signed a Magic Pet contract would only be close to its master.
Yet, in just this short while, she could already no longer sense any resistance from the little wolf cub.
By comparison,
the Head Gold Rank Bai Hu cub she had bought back then didn't seem so appealing anymore.
Moreover, this soft, squishy feel made her utterly unable to put it down.
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, her eyes lit up:
"Brother Zhou Yi, can I come find you to pet the little wolf cub later?"
"Sure."
Zhou Yi replied.
As for little wolf cubs and such, he really didn't understand how they could hold such great appeal.
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Jiang Churan couldn't help but mentally give herself a thumbs-up for her cleverness.
This way, she would have a perfectly legitimate reason to go find Zhou Yi in the future...
After leaving the Magic Pet Market.
The two returned to their respective dorms.
It is worth mentioning that when they arrived at Villa No. 002,
the little Gale Wolf cub, which had been resisting stubbornly at first, was actually somewhat reluctant to leave Jiang Churan's embrace.
In the end, it was Zhou Yi who pinched the loose skin at the back of its neck and forcibly carried it away.
"Woo woo——"
They entered the villa's living room.
This little wolf cub, which had spent nearly its entire life since birth inside a beast cage, immediately kicked up its heels.
It began running about wildly through the living room.
Unlike a human newborn, although it had only been born a little over ten days ago, it had already learned to run.
And it ran quite fast too!!
Looking closely, one could even faintly see some tiny wisps of cyan breeze around its body.
"Truly worthy of an Epic Rank Gale Wolf cub — at such a young age it can already unconsciously use its innate wind-attribute ability."
Sitting on the sofa, Zhou Yi could not help sighing in admiration, then called out:
"Xiao Hei, help me look up what a Gale Wolf cub that's been born a little over ten days should be fed."
Buzz——
A pure-white spherical robot equipped with an anti-gravity device flew out from one of the nearby rooms.
Then, the voice unique to Xiao Hei rang out:
"A Gale Wolf cub that's been born ten days is only suited to being fed various dairy products; fresh magical beast milk would be best."
"After twenty days, once it has grown to Level 10, it can be switched to feeding on magical beast flesh and blood, or wind-attribute magic cores."
"It actually still needs to be fed fresh milk?"
Zhou Yi's brow lifted.
He didn't know much about magical pets either; he had assumed cubs could swallow magic cores directly.
"That's true too — its teeth haven't even grown in yet, how could it possibly gnaw on a magic core?"
Shaking his head, Zhou Yi gave an order to Xiao Hei in midair:
"Help me order a daily delivery of magical wolf milk — the best kind."
As a top-tier institution, Suhang University, in order to let students devote all their energy to training and combat,
had done an extremely thorough job with its life-related support services.
Not only could one order meals directly from the dormitory, one could also reserve fresh milk delivered to the door every morning.
The price wasn't expensive either; even choosing the most precious fresh milk, delivered every day for The entire semester,
would only cost a total of 50 credits.
Of course, this was also because the school had special subsidies for students' food.
"Xiao Hei understands, placing the order......"
"Order placed successfully."
"Since a magical pet's cub stage requires a large amount of space for activity,
Xiao Hei suggests that the master not place it into the contract space for nearly a month."
As the villa's advanced intelligence, Xiao Hei could even offer suggestions based on the current situation.
And right now, that was exactly what it did.
Zhou Yi naturally accepted Xiao Hei's suggestion gladly.
Moreover, he also understood that the so-called contract space was actually not comfortable at all.
In the future, unless he was heading into the wild, he would not let this Gale Wolf enter the contract space.
"Right, I still haven't given it a name yet......"
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi went and picked up the little wolf cub that was still running all over the living room.
It had to be said, this little fellow's body was indeed very soft, and fluffy to boot — impossible to put down.
Placing the little wolf cub on the coffee table and looking at its smooth, blue-gray fur all over its body, Zhou Yi quickly came up with a name..........
"Mm, from now on I'll call you Xiao Hui!"
Xiao Hui!
Very simple, and very easy to remember.
For a name-challenged person like Zhou Yi, it was just right.
"Ding dong~~~"
Just then, the doorbell of the villa suddenly rang.
A tall figure clad in armor appeared on the surveillance screen on the living room wall.
