Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1013 - 1114 Test

"You guys go ahead and take Qingyu to the test; he stayed up too late writing that report last night and probably won’t be able to get up for a while."

Agunas sensed the commotion outside, cracked the door open, and floated out to say to everyone. Kong Qing swam to Qi Chen’s side and hissed something, and Qi Chen said with a knowing look,

"So he stayed up again?"

"Pretty much."

Sighing, Qi Chen had no solutions for that guy, who had been the same way back in school, always obsessed with finishing whatever interested him before resting. But hadn’t Agunas advised him to rest? Qi Chen found it odd and glanced at him, then flicked his tail; Agunas looked puzzled by Qi Chen’s gaze.

"Reports? What’s he up to now? But never mind that, let’s go ahead and test. We won’t wait for him."

Cen Chudie said, looking toward Cheng Xiaoxiao and Su Wen. They didn’t have a change of clothes because they had been summoned by Veronia while shopping, but luckily, the estate always had casual attire on hand for customers to use, so it wasn’t a big problem.

"That’s fine, let’s go."

Su Wen said while glancing at Qingyu next to her. Despite its efforts to suppress it, she could still sense its anxiety. She was still worried about not having done the test, and besides, there was so much to understand about this new evolutionary form. Cen Chudie seemed to understand her concerns and smiled, saying,

"Don’t worry. While you’re taking the test, you can pick out construction materials and have them delivered."

"Can we really do that?"

Su Wen asked with some concern, to which Cheng Xiaoxiao replied with a slight smile,

"The prices Cotton Orchid Manor can get are probably much lower than if we got them ourselves."

After all, it was a tourist area that was always in need of repair and restoration, and Granny Mianlan was certainly not short on funds. The suppliers on Cotton Orchid Manor’s list would always have an advantage in their external promotions, as the large merchants knew of Granny Mianlan’s reputation and would expect the materials they provided to be of decent quality.

"Hm? What’s that delicious smell?"

The Little Husky that had been dreaming sounded drowsy as it spoke, yawned, and stretched, standing up fully awake. Xiao Ji, who was already up, shook its body and gave a glance to the Husky, who said with a puzzled expression,

"Why didn’t you just get up right away?"

Xiao Ji said nothing, just glanced at Feng Yuan; if not for the worry of waking him up, it would have already been on its feet.

"It’s definitely Sister Yun You’s specialty dish~"

Pushing open the door, Little Husky boasted triumphantly, seeming to have guessed correctly and said happily. Yun You looked puzzled and peered ahead, only to see the tail-wagging Little Husky keenly eyeing the food in her hands. Xiao Ji and Big Cat followed behind, looking curiously at Little Husky.

"What are you up to?"

Although she didn’t fully understand the situation, she could guess that Feng Yuan had transformed into an odd little dog, but... why? Setting the tray on the table, Yun You picked up the Little Husky from the ground and placed him on the table asking,

"What happened to you?"

Yawning, the Little Husky jumped down from the table and transformed back into his human form, saying,

"Heh heh~ I just find it more comfortable to sleep like this..."

"Really... You gave me quite the scare. I thought something had happened to you..."

Yun You said with a slight chuckle, looking at Feng Yuan. After all, under normal circumstances, humans can’t change their body size much, let alone into a little dog. Scratching his head in embarrassment, Feng Yuan looked at Yun You with a bit of confusion and asked,

"Where’s Cen Chudie? Why is it you, Sister Yun You, bringing me breakfast?"

She can’t be that free to come bring him breakfast this early in the morning, right? Yun You smiled slightly and said,

"I was a bit worried you might forget to eat breakfast. There’s not much going on in the manor today, so what, I can’t come?"

"Not at all, just find it strange is all."

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said with a grin, while Yun You, who was tidying up Feng Yuan’s room, suggested,

"Why don’t you go check it out later? Chudie is conducting a checkup on Kong Qing and the others in the backyard."

"I see."

Nonchalantly picking up a dish of Spirit Beast food and handing it to Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan glanced out the window and remarked that it was no wonder Yun You had brought him breakfast or, rather, had Yun You not brought breakfast to wake him up, he might have slept till noon. He glanced at the report he had placed on the desk. Yun You had avoided the files while tidying up, as she wasn’t sure if they were laid out that way for easy recollection.

"Yo, you’re up so early?"

Feng Yuan waved at Qi Chen and then, looking at him, Qi Chen asked,

"Have you gotten enough sleep? You really are... Can you not stay up late if it’s not necessary?"

"Hehe, I just wanted to finish this research report quickly, here."

Taking the report Feng Yuan handed over, Qi Chen was taken aback and said with a lack of enthusiasm,

"Are you joking? How am I supposed to understand this..."

"Jeez! It’s always good to learn more, don’t you want to have one more skill?"

"The ability to read reports? You really shouldn’t make things difficult for people. Not everyone is talented in potions and Spirit Beast research; besides, he certainly doesn’t have your energy to learn a load of strange things."

Cen Chudie, looking exasperated, glanced at Feng Yuan and remarked that the latter must think everyone is a genius. Although she was pretty good at potion studies, her Beast Taming strength was rather lacking or, to put it another way, her talent never lay in Beast Taming in the first place. Compared to students from ordinary colleges, she seemed a bit stronger...

Even though that was her thought, glancing at Qingyu, she couldn’t help but sigh. Indeed, Spirit Beasts were the most magical creatures. Perhaps you’re stronger than them one moment, but with a stroke of luck or happenstance, they might surpass you the next.

Wasn’t Qingyu just like that? Qingyu’s current strength might not be considered very formidable, but it had just evolved and was in a period of rapid growth in strength. No one knew what it would be like once its strength stabilized.

But truthfully speaking, it seemed she had her own share of luck, right? At least compared to Ah Ling’s Good Level, the Elite Level little lizard was an unexpected situation that didn’t have much to do with her nurturing.

Feng Yuan took a look at the data recorded by Cen Chudie and, pointing to a few of Kong Qing’s data points, said,

"These can be scrapped. Kong Qing’s condition is very special. You would do well to neglect these tests; physical endurance and energy sustainability-related data are really meaningless..."

Even for Xiao Ji, its physical endurance and such were at the extreme values for its current stage. As for its internal energy? Divine Beasts’ trait is almost inexhaustible strength, of course, that’s not related to exhaustion; even Divine Beasts will get tired and fatigued if they use their Ultimate Moves too much. They can’t continuously use their Ultimate Moves more due to fatigue, not a lack of energy.

Testing these data on Kong Qing would likely yield results vastly different from the Homeward Snake’s actual data. Hence, Feng Yuan made that comment. Cen Chudie, casting a glance at Feng Yuan and speaking with exasperation, added,

"I know that, of course. Your Kong Qing is really... sheesh, all the Spirit Beasts around you are terrifyingly strong."

Although she had stopped testing the energy sustainability of Kong Qing, it wasn’t difficult for Cen Chudie to guess that Kong Qing’s total energy capacity was much higher than Qingyu’s, and perhaps, not even short of those Legendary Level Spirit Beasts.

Of course, this also had to do with her subconscious lack of suspicion that Kong Qing was a Divine Beast. Ordinary people really wouldn’t think that an ordinary-looking Little Green Snake could be a Divine Beast, considering that the Divine Beasts visible to the world had not been like ordinary Spirit Beasts, continually evolving from low potential levels. Even Xiao Ji seemed a bit suspect, but due to the lack of precedent, not many people considered this possibility.

"Hehe, how about it? Are you envious?"

Patting Xiao Ji’s back, Feng Yuan spoke proudly while Agunas glanced at him and flicked its tail. If it weren’t for his privilege, how could Kong Qing and Xiao Ji have such formidable strength? Xiao Ji spread its wings, flapping them and letting out a loud eagle’s cry, seemingly quite excited.

"What good would being envious do? Fortunately, I’m not planning on pursuing a Beastmaster’s path, so I don’t feel anything special."

Cen Chudie glanced at Feng Yuan with a hint of annoyance, noting that if she had planned to be a Beastmaster, she would be impossible not to envy Feng Yuan’s situation. But for her now, it really didn’t make any difference.
