Chapter 7: Flying Centipede

They were having a good time again.

For the next week, he woke up and locked himself in his room. Every day, he worked hard on his familiar cultivation.

Although he would be so tired that he couldn’t stand up straight after every single day of cultivation, he had gained a lot.

Now, Whitey had become a level 20 high-level E grade familiar.

With less than 700 experience points, Whitey could advance once more.

At the same time, Su Xing’s physique had also been greatly improved, even though he looked a little weak after just finishing his cultivation.

However, after resting for a few hours, he could become lively again.

Tomorrow, he would have to report to the North City’s Beastmaster Academy.

Su Xing’s parents and younger sister would also come back early to hold a family gathering for him.

Therefore, Su Xing ended his cultivation early and rested in the living room.

At this moment, Su Xing was lying on Whitey’s lap while Whitey was giving Su Xing a head massage.

He suddenly felt that this was all there was to life.

Suddenly, the sound of the door opening was heard and Whitey instantly returned to its original form of a little fox.

“Brother, how can you do this! Whitey isn’t a pillow!”

Su Yumeng walked into the room and saw Su Xing lying on Whitey’s body. She was unhappy.

Su Xing quickly got up, so as not to be scolded by Su Yumeng.

Su Yumeng walked over and picked up Whitey, then said, “Seriously, you’re a beastmaster. You have to treat your familiar better. You can’t do this.”

Su Xing scratched his head and nodded repeatedly.

Whitey looked at Su Xing, who was being scolded, with a gloating look in its eyes.

After that, it began to enjoy Su Yumeng’s touch.

Now, the intimacy between Whitey and Su Xing had reached a hundred.

The two of them could be said to be master and servant, or cultivation partners.

When faced with Su Xing’s embarrassment, Whitey would sometimes smile humanely.

However, its loyalty wouldn’t change.

In the evening, Father Su and Mother Su returned with a table full of meat.

After the global mutation, all animals had basically mutated. Only a small number of domestic animals could be eaten, so meat was extremely hard to come by.

This table full of meat and vegetables was bought outside, so it seemed to be quite expensive.

The family ate the meal happily.

During this time, Father Su kept on saying that the Su family was blessed to have a beastmaster son.

Mother Su also urged Su Xing to be careful when doing things outside, to study hard, and not to cause trouble everywhere.

Su Xing nodded in agreement one by one.

As for Su Yumeng, she had been with her brother since she was young. Now that her brother was suddenly going to leave, she would definitely be reluctant to part with him.

Looking at Su Yumeng, whose eyes were red, Su Xing rubbed her head and said dotingly, “What’s with that expression? It’s not like I’m not coming back. I’m just going to school. I’ll be back for the holidays.”

“Then come back with presents!”

Su Yumeng said that with a smile that broke through her tears.

She had never seen this side of Su Xing before. The brother and sister usually played around, and it was rare to see such a heartwarming scene.

Su Xing nodded and said, “When you become a beastmaster in two years, I’ll find you the best familiar.”

“I don’t want the best. You can keep the best for yourself. I want the cutest one,” Su Yumeng said innocently.

Upon hearing that, Su Xing burst into laughter.

Just like that, the last night before Su Xing’s departure was spent in such a heartwarming environment.

This was also the most peaceful night of sleep he had since getting his familiar.

The next day, at ten o’clock in the morning, he packed his luggage and said goodbye to his family.

He didn’t want to be separated in that kind of sad atmosphere.

He didn’t want to replay the scene of you waiting for a while while I go buy you some oranges.

Just like that, he woke up and went to the meeting place in the east of the city alone.

When he arrived, the few people who had awakened with him were already there.

There were also some young people from other schools who had awakened their beastmaster talents.

Other than that, there was also a team of fully armed soldiers.

“How are you doing, Su Xing? Let me tell you that my familiar has already grown into a level five familiar.”

At this moment, Li Xuan walked over and joined in the fun.

“Ah, I’ve been spending the past few days with my family, so I haven’t been nurturing my familiar much. It’s still the same as before.”

Su Xing didn’t have any thoughts of comparing himself to this little brat.

“That won’t do. Being a beastmaster isn’t that easy. I heard from others that we’ll be carrying out some familiar defense missions when the time comes. If we don’t have enough strength, we’ll die a terrible death,” Zhao Ke walked over and said.

As for Wang Wei, he was a little inarticulate. He didn’t say anything, but he clearly agreed with the two of them. He nodded.

“Thank you. I’ll take note.”

The four of them came from the same school. Moreover, these people were doing this for his own good, so he still accepted their suggestion.

However, they didn’t know that Su Xing was already much stronger than them.

Although the North City’s Beastmaster Academy had the North City’s name, it wasn’t actually in the city.

Instead, it was in the wilderness 50 kilometers away from the North City.

The harsh environment allowed these children to grow up quickly.

This was also the reason why the Su family was both excited and a little sad.

Although humans gradually gained a foothold in the savage beast war and established a city, the savage beasts outside the city still existed.

Ordinary people couldn’t leave the cities at all.

Moreover, roads, high-speed trains, airplanes, and other means of transportation were also unavailable. Therefore, there are some people who had never left their cities in their entire lives.

Moreover, although becoming a beastmaster could glorify their ancestors and rise to the top, beastmasters were, after all, combatants. It was hard to say when they would lose their lives.

This time when Su Xing left, they really didn’t know when he would be back.

Moreover, the North City’s Beastmaster Academy was only their assessment ground. They still had to go to the Imperial Capital to study in the future.

Seeing that they were all present, a person who looked like a captain walked out. Then, his entire body emitted light as he summoned his familiar.

It was a flying centipede.

This type of centipede could fly at a low altitude, and it was an A grade familiar. The best part was that its abdomen was hollow, and it could be used as a transportation tool.

In the current situation where there was no suitable transportation tool, this flying centipede was the one that people used the most when crossing cities.

The person controlling this familiar was also an A-rank beastmaster, and to a certain extent, there was a certain level of security.

It was just that A-rank beastmasters were hard to come by, and the flying centipede was even harder to find. Therefore, those who could afford to use such things were all either rich or noble.

Su Xing’s family had never taken such a vehicle before.

Just as Su Xing was curiously observing the flying centipede, the captain-like soldier spoke.

“Beastmasters of the future, get on in!”
