MTL - After Cheating, I Became the Strongest Beast Master

Chapter 4 “Gluttony”

 There are three canteens in Qinglong No. 8 Middle School, and the beast-taming canteens for the three grades are all separate.

The cement floor is slightly moist, and the ventilation fan high on the wall is rotating at high speed. The low walls form a fence. The walls in the fence are connected to the food pipes, and below is a large iron basin the size of a bathtub.

 This is also nicknamed the “food trough” by many students.

 There is a photo of the student posted in front of each "slot", with the name and class underneath.

 It feels like it’s not the beasts that are being fed, but them.

 There is a giant scale in the open space in the center of the canteen hall. The scale is six meters long and three meters wide. It uses gravity sensing.

 Chen Xing picked up an iron basin from the side, put the little crocodile into the iron basin and lined it up. Soon it was his turn. The aunt wearing an apron and a mask and hat moved very skillfully on the display screen in front of the operator.

After a few quick presses, he took the iron basin and placed it on the giant scale. With two more finger operations, a piece of paper with a QR code printed on it came out of the machine next to him. He then pulled off the QR code and handed it over with the iron basin. To Chen Xing.

 Chen Xing took the iron basin and fished out the little saltwater crocodile inside with one hand. He held the note between his **** and at the same time, he followed the group and placed the iron basin on the shelf beside him.

 Go back to your slot and “dlick” the QR code strip on the scanner.

There was a buzzing sound from the pipe in front, and a moment later, a piece of food was pulled down along the smooth wall pipe.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　～

 A ball of dark yellow minced meat-like paste fell into the food bowl.

Over the past few days, the little crocodile has already become familiar with the eating rhythm here. When he heard the sweet sound of delicious food falling into the basin, the little crocodile, whose belly was held by Chen Xing with one hand, couldn't help but slide its legs.

 Chen Xing put the little crocodile into the big iron basin, da da da da da~

The hard little paws moved quickly in the basin and made a crisp sound, and the tail kept wagging as it walked.

 Open your mouth and take a bite! Ouch!

ˆ (●''●)

 The paste is reduced by a quarter.

 Ouch! Another bite.

  ()

 Only half of it is left.

 Ouch, ow.

Gone.

This cooking speed is breathtaking.

 After finishing the food, the little crocodile ran around anxiously, sniffing constantly to see if there was any other food around.

 But it’s a pity there is no more.

Meals in the cafeteria are distributed according to the weight of the beast every day. The greater the weight, the more rice in the cafeteria every day.

It does not mean that the fuller you eat at one time, the better. The body of the saltwater crocodile has a feedback mechanism. Eating too much at one time will cause the body to instinctively reduce the speed of gastrointestinal digestion and store a large amount of energy in the body.

Many reptiles have similar instincts, and the only way to get rid of them is to evolve into a more advanced life and overcome the limitations of one's own race.

 The best way until then is to use its instinct.

“Oh~” The little crocodile couldn’t find food and screamed at Chen Xing anxiously.

It obviously smells the strong aroma of food in the air, so why is there no food?

 Chen Xing laughed and grabbed it.

This is the canteen, surrounded by small saltwater crocodiles eating. The smell of food must be very strong in the air.

 “Like a foodie, like a glutton.”

Um? Why did I suddenly think of this name? Taotie seems to be an auspicious beast in dreams. The name should be an auspicious beast, right?

Chen Xing can’t remember clearly. Although it was only a few days ago, many details in the dream have been forgotten, leaving only some vague outlines.

 After all, how can one remember all the details of a dream, no matter how impressive it is?

Thinking of this, Chen Xing looked at the little crocodile. He hadn't even given it a name yet. It wouldn't be good to keep barking. It would be embarrassing for the little crocodile in the future if he felt like he was being called "Pew".

And I am definitely not the only one making a squeaking sound.

Will you "suck" yourself in public in the future? If all the beast masters on the street look at it at the same time, the picture will be very beautiful.

 In order to avoid this embarrassing situation, "Then you can call me Taotie."

This name should be unpopular, and there will definitely be no name collision.

 “Taotie, 嘬嘬嘬.”

  …    In the afternoon, there is a general knowledge class on animal control.

 “Get back to your position quickly, it’s Zhang Yutong’s lesson!”

Taotie was looking around, and Chen Xing put a finger on its forehead to steady it.

The sound of leather shoes outside the door gradually became clearer, and Zhang Chunlei, a teacher who taught the general knowledge of animal control class, strode into the classroom. Zhang Chunlei was not tall, only a little over 1.6 meters tall, but his eyes were very sharp. He was wearing a simple gray tunic suit, with his right hand on his waist. A book, a thermos flask in his left hand, thick black-rimmed glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose, and a large colorful parrot standing on his shoulder. The colors and grays inexplicably reached a harmony.

“Turn out all the papers you made the day before yesterday, and I will explain the error-prone questions above.”

A sharp voice came from the podium. The parrot standing on Zhang Chunlei's shoulder opened and closed its mouth. It observed the students in the classroom with its big eyes. If anyone dared to be lazy, the crest on the head of the parrot stood up and flew to the classroom with a piece of chalk in its mouth. Overhead, an aerial chalk bomb came to warn students who had deserted.

The students in the classroom are accustomed to this. In the first class of the school year, Zhang Chunlei wrote on the blackboard with chalk that he had injured his vocal cords and could not speak. Usually, his animal control cockatoo would narrate the story in class. This is a kind of The superb skills of the beast master, the beast master and the beast master are connected in mind, and can communicate through thinking.

 “Let’s look at the second multiple-choice question first.”

The cockatoo flew over the classroom and shouted loudly. No one dared to desert Zhang Parrot's class because the parrot's eyes were sharper than the camera, and it could clearly see any small movements.

On the podium, Zhang Chunlei took chalk and wrote the first question on the blackboard. His chalk writing was sonorous and powerful, and every stroke and every stroke was clear.

  Click, click, click, dust and dust fell from the edge of the blackboard.

  (8) The cultivation of animal control is divided into four major stages, and these four major stages are ().

  1. Growth period, detachment period, evolution period, and spiritual ascension period

  2. Growth period, evolution period, detachment period, and spiritual ascension period

 3. Growth period, transcendence period, spiritual ascension period, and evolution period

 4. Growth period, divine period, detachment period, evolution period

"Ascending to God is the last step. It can only be in the last big stage, so you choose directly between the first and second options. Many students don't understand the difference between the growth stage and the evolution stage. This is a point of confusion. The growth stage is It is the natural growth stage of a Taming Beast. As long as there are no accidents along the way, any Taming Beast can grow from an infant to a mature one if it is cultivated step by step."

Zhang Chunlei used chalk to draw a horizontal line with key marks on the words growth stage and evolution stage.

"The evolution period is a transformation. Almost most of the known beasts have higher-level forms that can evolve, and most of the beasts have more than one evolutionary form. Some beasts only evolve during the day or night. After they evolve, There are great differences in the forms of beasts. There are subjects in universities that specialize in the evolution of beasts. If you are interested, you can apply for relevant majors. If you can discover a new evolutionary form of beasts, it will be a huge fortune. .The evolutionary stage is the next big stage after the growth stage.”

"When beasts naturally grow to their limits, the energy they can store in their bodies will reach its limit. If you want to increase the limit, you must choose evolution to broaden its upper limit. Some scientists have discovered that all living things are actually evolving over the long years, including us humans. , and the evolution of beast control only shortens this long evolutionary process into a short period of time.

When the Tamer Beast evolves, the upper limit of the energy level in their body will also increase, and after the energy level in the Tamer Beast's body reaches 100, they will choose to transcend.

Whether it is bloodline detachment, physical detachment or soul detachment, they are all different choices, so choose 2 for this question. "

Zou Minghan, Chen Xing's deskmate, suddenly raised his hand and asked: "Teacher, what is the stage of ascending to the gods? The book does not introduce it in detail, it just says that there is this state."

 Zhang Chunlei pushed up the frame and said, "The teacher doesn't know much about it, so he won't take this in the exam."

 After hearing what Zhang Chunlei said, the students were a little disappointed.

Wang Qiming, who was sitting behind Zou Minghan, said in a low voice: "I went to dinner with my dad last time and heard other people say that the ascension period may be related to the gods in foreign legends."

"Hey, do you know what that **** looks like?" Zou Minghan turned his head curiously. Wang Qiming's family should be in a good position to prepare customized nutritional potions for him, and they must know more things.

“I’ve never seen it before. The most powerful one I’ve ever seen is the beast master of our director of security. It’s a master beast that has transcended the stage. Just standing there makes my calves weak.”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　haha

 Two pieces of chalk fell from the sky and landed accurately on the heads of Zou Minghan and Wang Qiming.

“You are not allowed to speak until you raise your hands in class!” The cockatoo flew overhead in a circle as a warning.

Being reminded in front of the whole class, Wang Qiming's face turned red, and Zou Minghan quickly turned back and lowered his head without daring to speak.

 When Zhang Chunlei left the classroom after class, the classroom became lively again.

Wang Qiming took out his beast master from the drawer. The saltwater crocodile on the table was two times larger than the saltwater crocodile of many classmates in the class. It was well developed, with a tiger-like head and a bigger head than other crocodiles. It looks like it has finally gotten rid of the appearance of a crocodile cub.

"Wow, you are such a big beast. At this rate of progress, you will be in the top ten of your grade in the monthly exam." Gao Jianqiang came over with his crocodile in his arms. It sounded like he was envious, but in fact, he held it in a nonchalant manner. The beast master, who is not small in size, showed off.

Since the beast control was distributed, those who could not afford it could only eat the food in the school, and those who could afford it could go home and cook a small stove.

“Your crocodile seems to be quite big!” Zou Minghan said enviously. His family conditions were average and there was little support from his family, so he had to rely on himself to cultivate and control the beast.

Hearing these words, Gao Jianqiang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, but he remained modest, "It's not that exaggerated. I just drank a few bottles of general nutritional reagents and grew a little bit taller. Lao Wang's beast master is still bigger, and I rank higher." It must be behind him."

“He can finish in the top ten, and you, the beast master, should also be able to finish in the top fifty.”

"It's not that simple to get into the top ten. In the first monthly exam last year in the first year of high school, the top ten in the grade were at least level 5 beast masters. After mastering a skill, if you want to get into the top ten, you must not only control the beasts, but also the masters." To break through the beast level 5, you need to learn a skill to have a chance." Li Zhixuan, who was sitting in the row in front of Chen Xing, said without looking back.

Hearing these words, the people who were chatting just now looked at each other and fell into a brief silence.

Especially Wang Qiming, he just tested his ability to control beasts last night, and he is only at level 3 now.

There are still fourteen days until the monthly exam. It is definitely not easy to break through to level 5 in 14 days and also spend time mastering a skill.
