After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

As the teacher left, the students felt a void inside.

"What about our instructor? Doesn't our class have an instructor to guide us?" a classmate questioned.

Someone nearby said helplessly, "Were you daydreaming during the principal's speech? Instructors aren't responsible for leading the team; they're only in charge of safety. Maybe there's one hiding around watching us right now."

Chen Xing, blending into the crowd, silently gave his approval.

"Ah, who would seriously listen to the principal's speech on the field? You're hardcore!"

Although they were outside in the wilderness, there was no immediate change due to the large number of people.

But as time passed, the group still stood where they were.

The scorching sun hung high in the sky, and the occasional distant howls of unnamed monsters came from the plains.

A strange emotion crept up the soles of their feet like tentacles, climbing up their ankles.

The red sandstone ground beneath radiated a searing heat.

Someone wiped the sweat off their forehead, already starting to sweat profusely just after a while.

"It seems like these monsters are quite afraid of us," observed Chi Ziyao, glancing at the scorch-tailed monkeys that were moving further away from them.

Chen Xing chuckled lightly, "That's normal; in the eyes of wild monsters, we humans are anything but benevolent.

These wild monsters' only understanding of humans comes from the Beast Tamers who venture out here; no ordinary people come to these parts."

Chi Ziyao felt that Chen Xing made sense, and then listened as he continued.

"However, on the other hand, any monster that dares to attack humans in the wild is not going to be simple. Only those who have tasted beef would think that beef tastes good," Chen Xing remarked.

While Chen Xing and Chi Ziyao were chatting quietly.

Song Yanming approached and said in a hushed voice, "Classmate Chen, a few of us group leaders have discussed.

Today is the first day, so we plan to lead the others to adapt to the wilderness gradually. Everyone will maintain a slow pace and, after getting used to the environment, start to move faster from the day after tomorrow. What do you think?"

Although Chen Xing had not campaigned for any class position, his capabilities were evident to all, and this was a show of respect for the strong.

"I think that's a good idea. Just do as you've suggested," Chen Xing felt that the decision made by Song Yanming and the others had no problems.

"Hmm," Song Yanming nodded, but then felt an indescribable incongruity in their conversation, as if he were reporting to Chen Xing...

A hand fell on his shoulder. Chen Xing patted Song Yanming's shoulder warmly and asked, "So when do we set off?"

Song Yanming subtly dropped his shoulder and stepped back half a step, "We'll set off in a bit."

After a moment of silence, Song Yanming thought he couldn't let it be like this and then said, "By the way, Classmate Chen, we were divided into teams based on our class rankings. Your student number is 01 in our class, so you've been assigned to the first team..."

As he spoke, Song Yanming watched Chen Xing's face for his reaction.

Chen Xing understood implicitly, "Don't worry, I won't ask for any special treatment. Whatever the other students do, I'll do as well."

"..."

Song Yanming had a complex look in his eyes; oh well, at least Chen Xing wasn't causing trouble.

He was just worried about Chen Xing being contrarian, as geniuses often pride themselves on their abilities.

If Chen Xing chose to be difficult, he would be helpless...

There was no way to fight him.

But Song Yanming was pleasantly surprised that Chen Xing agreed so readily.

In fact, what Chen Xing really thought was: Fellow classmates, you must work harder and strive to reach the endpoint soon!

The dean had only asked him to be a military training instructor but had not said he couldn't receive the rewards meant for a student.

If his class were to reach the endpoint first, he could receive double the pay for a single job.

Delightful.

Of course, although the dean hadn't said so, Chen Xing also knew he shouldn't interfere too much... Otherwise, he could simply summon Taotie and have everyone ride on its back, reaching the endpoint in just a few days at most.

To be even more outrageous, he could call forth the Sìxiàng and bulldoze his way through.

```

But that also defeats the purpose.

Song Yanming continued, "Right, you and Chi Ziyao are assigned to the same group, with Lu Xueshuang as the group leader. You should go meet her."

Chen Xing pondered, that name sounded somewhat familiar...

Right, the student he was entrusted to look after seemed to be named Lu Xueshuang.

This Lu Xueshuang seemed to be quite something.

Although Chen Xing did not participate in the election, he was well aware that anyone who could secure the position of group leader among ninety-six geniuses was definitely not ordinary.

"Let's go take a look at our group leader," said Chen Xing, and Chi Ziyao followed him like a little follower with a big backpack on her back.

Lu Xueshuang watched Chen Xing approaching, a flash of curiosity in her eyes, but she hid the emotion very well.

It was because her brother had specially sent her a message yesterday, telling her to find Chen Xing immediately if she encountered any danger.

She was curious how her brother, who usually stayed in the military camp, knew the names of her classmates, and it seemed that he was acquainted with this classmate.

Also, for him to tell her this, it meant he must know that this Chen Xing was quite strong.

She had some idea of Chen Xing's strength beforehand.

Because she was among the group of new students who challenged the Inheritance Tower not long ago.

But she could only make it to the sixth floor before she could no longer continue.

Although the difficulty of the Inheritance Tower increased with age, the rate of increase was slower than the pace at which Beast Taming strength grew.

Therefore, the older one got, the easier it was to challenge the Inheritance Tower.

Now, only reaching the seventh floor, perhaps next year there would be an opportunity to climb several more floors.

Looking at it this way, this Chen fellow's strength seemed to be quite hidden.

However, although she was curious at heart, Lu Xueshuang did not show it outwardly. From her observations yesterday, this Chen Xing seemed quite low-key, and there was no need for her to deliberately uncover him and cause his dislike.

Such behavior would just be too foolish.

The students around began summoning their beasts, and the previously somewhat empty plains became lively. Not all beasts enjoyed quietude, some preferred the bustle, becoming more excited the more people and beasts there were around.

For example, a large black and white dog was particularly conspicuous in the crowd, bouncing around and weaving through the crowd with its tongue lolling out.

Just then, a flash of light passed, and Dong Jun was summoned by Chen Xing.

The imposing figure stood there, exuding the domineering presence inherent to Dragon Breed creatures.

The black and white dog couldn't brake in time and crashed headfirst into Dong Jun's large belly. The belly's resilience sent it flying, tumbling twice on the ground.

Then the black and white dog quickly scrambled up from the ground even faster, the intelligent glow in its eyes almost impossible to conceal.

After barking twice, it ran off towards the other side.

Not far away, Situ Yan had been clandestinely watching Chen Xing,

Ever since he lost to Chen Xing at the college cup, he had been unwilling to accept it.

He had always favored Dragon Breeds since he was young, not liking the wolf-and-jackal twin beasts of his family.

Though defeated, he always believed it was not the Dragon Breed Beast that was insufficient, but that he himself was lacking!

The reason he lost was that the Dragon Breed Beast he chose wasn't strong enough!

So he wanted to get a stronger Dragon Breed Beast—only to be thoroughly beaten by his sister Situ Xiaoqing.

After all, she was his real sister, so she did not hold back.

Afterward, his sister still managed to get him a rare Dragon Breed Beast.

With a new Dragon Breed Beast, Situ Yan's confidence quickly swelled, in his eyes everyone else present was no better than ordinary chickens and mutts, only Chen Xing, the one who had defeated him before, was worthy as a rival.

But when he saw Chen Xing summoning Dong Jun, he couldn't help trembling, for he felt the strong presence of a Dragon Breed creature emanating from Dong Jun!

You also think dragons are the strongest, don't you?

Situ Yan looked at Chen Xing excitedly, feeling as if he had met a kindred spirit.
