180: Shepherd God sees off

A day passed by very quickly.

After two Beast Tamer duels, Consultant's Beast Taming Power had been depleted quite a bit, so he slept soundly through the night.

By the next morning, Consultant and Du Ruo finally headed to the Weibai City station.

After challenging God Shepherd yesterday, his exploits quickly spread throughout all of Weibai City.

People in the streets and alleys were discussing yesterday's duel.

But rumors have a way of becoming distorted as they spread; by the time Consultant heard them, yesterday's rumors had already turned into tall tales.

People painted a picture of Consultant as an eccentric old man, accompanied by a Slime King and a terrifying black snake.

And even though Mu Xuan had been the one to provoke him initially, in the mouths of those who didn't know the truth, it turned into Consultant storming into the Beast Tamer Alliance gym with two magical beasts, attacking everyone he saw and causing massive destruction!

In the end, in order to protect the Beast Tamers in the gym, God Shepherd had no choice but to give him the badge...

The reason for such malicious rumors was, naturally, the terrifying impression Black Marsh had left on many people at the time.

Consultant was a bit annoyed at first, but then he thought about it—anyway, he wouldn't be coming back to Weibai City, so those rumors had nothing to do with him.

As soon as they arrived at the station, they saw two people walking toward them.

It was none other than the father-son duo, God Shepherd and Mu Xuan.

Consultant wasn't surprised; last night, God Shepherd had sent someone to deliver a train ticket to him.

This ticket went directly to the next city they wanted to visit—Ziyuan City.

And the reason God Shepherd and his son were here was to see Consultant and his companion off.

Of course, Consultant didn't know the hidden, real reason.

"Consultant, did you bring the ticket I had someone send you yesterday?"

God Shepherd was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday. If not for the badge hanging on his chest symbolizing the strongest Beast Tamer of Weibai City, he would be indistinguishable from any ordinary person on the street.

"I brought it, thank you very much," Consultant said politely.

"That's good. I've arranged a special carriage for you, which should allow you to get better rest," God Shepherd said.

Consultant had already noticed this; the ticket God Shepherd gave them had a distinct gold-stamped mark on it.

If they had to buy tickets for this special carriage themselves, Consultant figured he and Du Ruo would be left eating dirt by the time they arrived...

Therefore, Consultant and Du Ruo were very grateful to this 'kind-faced' God Shepherd. After thanking him a few times, they turned to leave.

Just then, Mu Xuan suddenly called out to him.

"Consultant, your goal must be to challenge the Beast Tamer Alliance in Caiyou City and become the Emerald Dreamscape Beast Tamer Champion, right?"

"Uh..." Consultant was slightly stunned, then nodded.

He didn't really have any thoughts about being a champion, but if he wanted to get the emerald seed and leave this place, becoming champion seemed to be the only way.

Mu Xuan stared at Consultant with burning eyes, his face showing a strange excitement.

This expression was quite similar to how he looked at Du Ruo before, which made Consultant feel uneasy.

This grandson wouldn't want to fence, would he?

Consultant muttered to himself.

Fortunately, Mu Xuan wasn't spouting nonsense, but instead said with a serious face:

"From today on, I will make you my target. I'll start collecting three proof-of-qualifications from another city, and I hope we can meet again in Caiyou City!"

"Oh, oh, I see..." Consultant breathed a small sigh of relief, flashed a smile, and said, "Then good luck. I hope we have a chance to duel again."

"Great!" Mu Xuan had a very good attitude toward the strong. After laughing heartily, he waved goodbye to Consultant and the others.

God Shepherd also waved at them from the side, "Safe travels. I hope to hear good news from you soon!"

After saying goodbye to God Shepherd and his son, Consultant and Du Ruo walked into the station.

They had delayed a bit while chatting, so as soon as they entered, an announcement sounded inside the station.

"This magic train is about to depart. The destination is Ziyuan City. Passengers who have not yet boarded, please hurry!"

"Damn!"

Upon hearing this, Consultant and Du Ruo's expressions both changed. They didn't have time to stroll leisurely anymore and quickly started running according to the signs in the station...

Fortunately, it wasn't too complicated inside, much better than many of the maze-like stations in Consultant's original world.

Not long after, the two passed through the ticket gate and walked into the carriage according to the instructions on their tickets.

This special carriage was located at the front of the train.

The environment inside was nice, with plenty of space between each seat.

Consultant and Du Ruo were the last ones to enter this carriage.

According to the seat numbers on their tickets, they were supposed to sit in the very front row.

But when Consultant and Du Ruo arrived at the front of the carriage, they found that a young man and woman were already sitting in their seats.

The two looked to be about the same age and were snuggled up together, ignoring the gazes of the people around them.

Consultant paused for a moment, then walked up and gently tapped the man on the shoulder, saying:

"Buddy, this is my spot."

Consultant's voice wasn't loud, and his tone held no hostility.

But the man turned his head, rolled his eyes at Consultant with an impatient expression, and didn't even say a word.

Instead, the girl beside him glared at him and Du Ruo, then spoke in a spoiled, arrogant tone:

"What do you mean 'your spot'? Is your name written on this seat?!"

Consultant narrowed his eyes slightly and instinctively used the system's analysis ability.

Soon, the man's information appeared in Consultant's eyes.

【Name: Fan Yu.】

【Race: Human.】

【Awakened Profession: Beast Tamer.】

【Level: 15.】

【Faction: Emerald Dreamscape.】

【System Evaluation: Son of the Chenghua City Fan Family, eccentric personality, often bullies commoners using his status!】

Consultant scanned it silently, then shifted his gaze to the girl.

【Name: Dai Lin.】

【Race: Human.】

【Awakened Profession: Beast Tamer.】

【Level: 10.】

【Faction: Emerald Dreamscape.】

【System Evaluation: Daughter of the Chenghua City Dai family, engaged to the Fan Family, spoiled and arrogant personality!】

Afterward, another line of text appeared before Consultant's eyes.

【The forces behind these two are both in Chenghua City; you may appropriately teach them a lesson!】

After seeing this, a faint, imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Consultant's mouth.

To be honest, it had been a long time since Consultant had seen such 'pure' people.

So much so that the system couldn't help but take the initiative to tell him to teach them a lesson.

More importantly, right now, there was no one around to help these two 'second-generation rich kids'.

Consultant unobtrusively flexed his wrists.

But Du Ruo behind him didn't have a good temper. As soon as the girl finished speaking, she stepped forward.

"Excuse me, but our names are actually written on these seats."

Du Ruo's mouth curled into a slight arc, but her tone was ice-cold, clearly provoked by the girl.
