Before Zhu Zhihan could react, the Wild Bear had already dashed past the Three-tailed Fox Lords that were chasing him. It was now approaching him.
The Three-Tailed Fox Lords were also dumbfounded. They had no idea what was going on and why someone had overtaken them. Even with the intelligence of a sovereign-level beast, the Three-Tailed Fox Lords still could not understand what was going on.
“Awooo!”
The Wild Bear punched the Speed Rat. The Speed Rat holding onto the pet beast egg wanted to escape but found that it could not move. There was no way for it to break free. The Wild Bear grabbed onto the Speed Rat. Within the Wild Domain, the wild Bear could suppress Speed Rat to the point where it could no longer use any strength.
Chu Feng activated his telekinetic power and controlled the pet beast egg to float into his hand.
!!
He handed the pet beast egg to Li Siyu and said with a smile, “It belongs to you now.”
Li Siyu took over the pet beast egg with a dumbfounded expression. Even now, she still couldn’t believe that Chu Feng’s Wild Bear was so powerful that even the Speed Rat couldn’t fight back.
Zhu Zhihan’s gaze turned unfriendly, “My friend, are you sure you want to be my enemy?”
Chu Feng smiled, “Why not?”
He met Zhu Zhihan’s gaze without the slightest trace of fear.
Zhu Zhihan said, “You’re not afraid of me, but aren’t you afraid of the Dibei base city as well? Do you know that I’m the representative of the extraordinary-level Beastmaster contestant in the exchange compet.i.tion? Aren’t you worried that the city owner of the Dibei base city would seek revenge?”
Zhu Zhihan knew that the Speed Rat could not defeat the Wild Bear. He had given the Speed Rat several orders through his mind, asking it to break free. But the Speed Rat’s reply was it could not do so because the difference in strength between the two was huge.
Chu Feng smiled, “You’re the representative of the Dibei base city in the exchange compet.i.tion?”
“Of course. I’ll forgive you if you return the pet beast egg to me.”
Zhu Zhihan beamed with joy. As expected, the person in front of him was frightened. He was only scaring Chu Feng. The Dibei city owner didn’t care about an extraordinary-level Beastmaster like him at all. However, when other base cities heard of the Dibei city owner’s name, they would more or less be afraid.
That was because Dibei city was a powerful existence among the seven cities. In the past, Zhu Zhihan had always used the Dibei city to scare others and succeeded every time.
Chu Feng said calmly, “I’m sorry, but I’m a partic.i.p.ant from the Diming base city. You can ask the Dibei city owner to look for Lord Wan if you can make him do that.”
Hearing the ridicule from Chu Feng, fury overtook Zhu Zhihan. He took a deep breath and said, “Then release my Speed Rat.”
“Why should I do that?” Chu Feng asked in a puzzle.
He now understood that the fight for the pet beast egg this time was most likely a game between the two cities. Even if it was a small game, Chu Feng represented Diming City. He couldn’t give away so soon. Moreover, it was normal for Beastmasters from other cities to fight each other in the wilderness.
“Awooo!”
The Wild Bear tightened its paws, and the Speed Rat spat out a mouthful of blood!
Zhu Zhihan’s face turned gloomy. He tried his best to suppress his anger and calm himself down, “What do you want?”
Chu Feng smiled but didn’t say anything.
Zhu Zhihan clenched his teeth and said, “I’ll give you five million! I’ll give you five million in exchange for the Speed Rat.”
He felt helpless and reluctant when he said that. A sovereign-level beast core was only worth a few hundred thousand. The most valuable sovereign-level beast core wasn’t worth five million either unless it was a beast with a high bloodline.
However, if it were a sovereign-level beast with a high bloodline, almost no Beastmasters would be willing to hunt it. Firstly, it was because it was more powerful, and secondly, it was very likely that they might provoke the race behind it. At that time, it might hunt them down.
The Speed Rat was Zhu Zhihan’s first pet beast. Most importantly, he wouldn’t be able to partic.i.p.ate in the exchange compet.i.tion without the Speed Rat.
The Seven Cities Exchange Compet.i.tion wasn’t not only a compet.i.tion that decided the allocation of resources. It was also an opportunity for the best young Beastmasters in the seven cities to display their strength in public. If his performance was outstanding, the Beastmaster a.s.sociation might even recognize him.
The Beastmaster a.s.sociation was a huge organization established by a magnate. Rumors said the Beastmaster a.s.sociation was of B-rank and A-rank talents! Only S-rank talents were considered geniuses there.
Zhu Zhihan had to seize this opportunity.
Chu Feng smiled and said, “So your Speed Rat only worth five million?”
Chu Feng’s expression was calm, but he was in cloud nine deep inside. That was the genius Beastmaster of the Dibei City. He was indeed wealthy. If he converted five million into enhancement points, it would be a total of five hundred points. The more enhancement points, the better.
Zhu Zhihan’s mood sank, but he quickly concealed it, “Ten million? How about that? I’ll have to trade part of the deal with treasures.”
“Deal!” Chu Feng’s eyes flashed with excitement.
It seemed that he had made a fortune out of kidnapping.
It was because Zhu Zhihan had something else to worry about. In addition, he didn’t have any other combat strength. Zhu Zhihan had only become a Beastmaster a year ago. He had been wholeheartedly nurturing his Speed Rat for the sake of this year’s extraordinary exchange compet.i.tion, hoping that he could make a name for himself and obtain the recognition of the Beastmaster a.s.sociation.
The Wild Bear had suppressed the Speed Rat. Zhu Zhihan could not do anything. Theoretically speaking, there was no enmity between Chu Feng and him. So, Zhu Zhihan was willing to use his wealth to solve the problem.
Anger was boiling in Zhu Zhihan, but he had no other choice. He could only take out some treasures and an anonymous gold card to trade.
“This anonymous gold card has five million in it. You can withdraw money from any bank in the seven cities of the Dibei Region. And, I have some sovereign-level beast cores and soul crystal spirit stones. It is worth around five million in total.”
Zhu Zhihan watched as Chu Feng took everything away, making him feel more heartbroken. That gold card was the reward his teacher had given him to congratulate him on winning a place to partic.i.p.ate in the exchange compet.i.tion. He had not even taken a good look at it. Yet now it was in other’s hand.
Chu Feng patted Zhu Zhihan’s shoulder with a smile, “Friend, I’ll return the Speed Rat to you. But next time, think before you steal. That Six-Tailed Fox is a pet beast of a teacher in Diming city. If you want to s.n.a.t.c.h our pet beast egg, you’d better think it over carefully before you do it.”
Zhu Zhihan was stunned. He instantly understood that he was involved in a game between two base cities.
“No wonder my teacher told me that there is a commander-level pet beast egg at the border between Diming city and Dibei City.”
Zhu Zhihan put away the heavily injured Speed Rat and calmly looked at Chu Feng. Without saying anything more, Zhu Zhihan approached Tong Xiao and Huo Yan, who had come back after being heavily injured.
Tong Xiao saw the huge Wild Bear and the pet beast egg in Li Siyu’s hands. He immediately understood what had happened.
