38: Shocked, he broke through the awakening level so quickly!
"Huangfu Yunzhao, long time no see!"
Su Yuan looked at Huangfu Yunzhao, who had come before him, and nodded with a faint smile.
"Long time no see."
Approaching Su Yuan's side, Huangfu Yunzhao looked at his handsome face and could not help but feel a bit shy, a blush appearing on her beautiful face.
"What the hell, is this still our Young Miss?"
"Good heavens! Who is this guy, and how is he so close to the Young Miss?"
Just as Huangfu Yunzhao revealed a shy smile, the two Transcendent-level Beastmasters guarding the gate of the Huangfu Family compound were instantly thrown into turmoil.
As the eldest Young Miss of the Huangfu Family, Huangfu Yunzhao was usually cold as ice, with an unapproachable demeanor.
They had never seen Huangfu Yunzhao show such an expression to any other man.
Witnessing the subtle relationship between Huangfu Yunzhao and Su Yuan, as well as Huangfu Yunzhao's behavior, they were naturally shocked.
"Su Yuan, since you're here, come in and have a cup of tea with me."
"Since we parted ways in the Misty Forest last time, Uncle Ba has talked about you, this Genius, quite often."
"If Uncle Ba hears the news of your arrival, he will definitely be very happy."
After greeting Su Yuan, Huangfu Yunzhao quickly invited him to go home for a chat.
"I came here today mainly because I want to make a trip to the Voodoo Jungle."
"I am new here and am not familiar with the environment of Tianyun City, so I came to the Huangfu Family to ask for directions."
Facing Huangfu Yunzhao's invitation, Su Yuan smiled and spoke indifferently.
He was not lying; having never been to Tianyun City before, he had originally intended to just find someone to ask for information about the Voodoo Jungle after arriving, not wanting to trouble the people of the Huangfu Family.
But unfortunately, he met Chen Hu of the Huangfu Family on the way, and considering his own safety, Su Yuan had to bring up Huangfu Shiba's name, which led him to the front of the Huangfu Family compound.
Since he had already arrived outside the Huangfu Family, Su Yuan had no choice but to pay a visit.
Otherwise, it would seem a bit impolite.
"Are you in such a rush to go to the Voodoo Jungle?"
Hearing Su Yuan's answer, Huangfu Yunzhao looked at him in shock and spoke again:
"Su Yuan, you are so anxious to go to the Voodoo Jungle, could it be that you have also advanced to an Awakening-level Beastmaster?"
Previously in the Misty Forest, Su Yuan had expressed interest in the plant-type Vicious Beasts in the Voodoo Jungle.
He had also indicated that he wanted to contract a plant-type Beast, just like Huangfu Yunzhao.
Now that Su Yuan was in a rush to go to the Voodoo Jungle, it must be related to him wanting to contract a new Beast.
And Su Yuan already had a turtle-type Beast, and it was rumored that he was only an A-Rank talent Beastmaster.
As such, Su Yuan must have already achieved a Breakthrough to the Awakening-level, which is why he would go to the Voodoo Jungle.
It was precisely because she thought of this that Huangfu Yunzhao showed such an expression.
Although Su Yuan's Beast had already shown a Common Rank 8 strength half a month ago, whether it was a Beast or a Beastmaster,
the further one goes, the more difficult it is to achieve a Breakthrough in strength.
In just half a month, Su Yuan had crossed the chasm between the Common Rank and the Awakening-level; this speed was enough to make one marvel.
Huangfu Yunzhao deduced that Su Yuan had advanced from Common Rank 8 to an Awakening-level Beastmaster in just half a month, and naturally, she could not help but be stunned.
She had also just broken through to the Awakening-level not long ago and knew well how difficult it was to advance from Common Rank 9 to the Awakening-level.
If not for the Family behind her providing unlimited resources to her, a Genius with S-Rank talent,
she would not have broken through to the Awakening-level so quickly.
"I also only recently achieved a Breakthrough to the Awakening-level; it's all thanks to my Beast being capable."
Su Yuan looked at Huangfu Yunzhao's surprised expression, answered with a smile, and attributed all the credit to his Beast.
In fact, this was true; a Beastmaster's Breakthrough was basically completed by the energy feedback from the Beast, and their strength Rank would be on par with their highest-ranked Beast.
At the same time, he secretly rejoiced that he had not fully revealed his strength in front of Huangfu Yunzhao.
She was already so surprised just by guessing that he had just broken through to an Awakening-level Beastmaster.
If Huangfu Yunzhao knew that he had not only broken through to the Awakening-level but had actually reached Awakening Rank 4,
Su Yuan really did not know how much shock it would cause her.
"Since you have already broken through to the Awakening-level and are in a rush to contract a Beast, I will not waste your time."
"Su Yuan, let's go tell my Family, and I will accompany you to the Voodoo Jungle later."
"I'll also bring some Awakening-level Beastmasters from the Family with us."
"The Voodoo Jungle is an Elementary Secret Realm, and most of the Vicious Beasts inside are Awakening-level."
"You and I have both just broken through to the Awakening-level; it's fine if we encounter Elementary Awakening-level Vicious Beasts, but if we run into Intermediate or even Advanced Awakening-level Vicious Beasts, it will be dangerous."
"The Voodoo Jungle is limited to Awakening-level Beastmasters, so I will ask my father to send us a few Peak Awakening-level guards to ensure our safety."
Seeing that Su Yuan admitted to having broken through to the Awakening-level, Huangfu Yunzhao was shocked but also happy for him.
She again extended a warm invitation to Su Yuan, while also stating her plan to accompany him to the Voodoo Jungle.
Seeing this, Su Yuan smiled and thanked Huangfu Yunzhao, but tactfully declined her offer to accompany him to the Voodoo Jungle.
Su Yuan now possessed three Beasts: Xiao Xuan, Xiao Yan, and Xiao You, with the strongest one, Xiao Yan, having reached Awakening Rank 4.
If Huangfu Yunzhao and the others followed him to the Voodoo Jungle, his actions there would be restricted.
Before having enough strength to protect himself, Su Yuan did not want to expose all his trump cards and strength to others.
Even Huangfu Yunzhao, who had a slight affection for him, was no exception.
After being rejected by Su Yuan, Huangfu Yunzhao looked a bit disappointed.
And for the first time, she tasted the feeling of being rejected.
In the past, she had only ever rejected others; now, facing rejection for the first time, and from a boy at that,
while Huangfu Yunzhao felt a bit disappointed, she could not help but develop an indescribable, strange feeling in her heart.
Adjusting her mood slightly, Huangfu Yunzhao put a smile back on her face and said to Su Yuan:
"Since that's the case, be careful when you go to the Voodoo Jungle alone."
"Let's go, let's go see my second uncle first. My second uncle will be very happy to know you are here!"
Saying this, she invited Su Yuan inside.
To this, Su Yuan did not refuse again.
Following by Huangfu Yunzhao's side, the two chatted and laughed as they entered the gate of the Huangfu Family estate.
"Chen Hu, what is that person's background?"
Inside the Huangfu Family estate, after Huangfu Yunzhao left in a hurry, Yang Di did not let Chen Hu take him to wander around other parts of the estate.
Instead, he followed them quietly.
Yang Di admired Huangfu Yunzhao greatly, but had never heard of her having any friends, so naturally, he was very curious about this friend she spoke of.
At this moment, Yang Di happened to see Su Yuan and Huangfu Yunzhao walking towards the villa area of the estate, chatting and laughing.
Seeing that the person chatting and laughing with Huangfu Yunzhao was actually a young man, Yang Di's jealousy flared up, and he asked Chen Hu, who was following him, with a displeased look on his face.
