213: Mr. Shen’s thoughts, the five-member group arrived in Yucheng!

"Old Shen."

"Sit," Old Shen gestured.

The two sat opposite each other at the stone table, one on each side.

Seeing the perfect pair before him, Old Shen nodded in satisfaction.

"Fang Ran, what do you think of Shen Yun?"

Old Shen went straight to the point.

"Grandpa!" Shen Yun, who was beside him, lowered her head, her cheeks already red to her ears.

"Hmm, very good. Miss Shen is the pearl of Yu City. Such a young Transcendent Grade Beast Tamer is truly rare."

Fang Ran stated truthfully.

Upon hearing his words, a hint of joy welled up in Shen Yun's heart.

"Of course! Although my granddaughter can't compare to you, she's also a rare genius," Old Shen said with a smile.

He seemed to approve of Fang Ran greatly.

"Over the years, many people have come to propose to her, but I've rejected them all," Old Shen began, then continued, "I don't want to force her. As long as my granddaughter is willing, even if the other person is an ordinary person, it doesn't matter."

"But what they valued was my power. Only you were willing to save her and help her even in the most dangerous places."

Hearing this, Fang Ran could no longer fail to guess Old Shen's intentions.

So he said, "Old Shen, just say it directly. No need for circumlocution."

Seeing Fang Ran being so straightforward,

Old Shen said bluntly, "Good. I was also a straightforward person back then."

"Shen Yun, you go out first. Fang Ran and I need to talk alone."

Hearing Old Shen's words, Shen Yun felt her heart race.

Then, she got up and left the courtyard.

"Shen Yun has a very good impression of you. Her attitude changes whenever you're mentioned," Old Shen said with a smile.

"Moreover, she asked me to help you several times."

"I'm also very grateful to her," Fang Ran replied.

"Hahaha, you've also helped her a lot. You two can be said to owe each other nothing. Perhaps, she even owes you a lot." The more Old Shen spoke, the more satisfied he became with Fang Ran.

"In a few days, I'll be heading to the front-line city to fight against fierce beasts. So, I want to entrust Shen Yun to you in advance to ensure her safety."

Hearing Old Shen's words, Fang Ran was startled.

No wonder he sent Shen Yun away.

The front-line city was the most dangerous place.

It was adjacent to the City of Fierce Beasts, practically humanity's first line of defense.

"Is it because of the Black Stone Mountains incident?"

"You know?" Old Shen raised an eyebrow.

"I've heard about it."

"It's just a small matter. I just need to go kill a fierce beast. It won't take long," Old Shen said with a smile, but his eyes were filled with confidence.

"Then I wish Old Shen a triumphant return!" Fang Ran stood up and said.

Kill a fierce beast? It must be at least a King-level existence!

Hearing Fang Ran's words, Old Shen's impression of him improved by another ten percent.

"Fang Ran, if you were to only marry her, would you be willing?" Old Shen suddenly spoke, then looked at him and said, "Of course, if you agree, the Shen family's businesses in Yu City will be handed over to you to manage."

The Shen family's businesses in Yu City were worth at least tens of billions!

If Old Shen hadn't restricted his subordinates, this amount would only be more exaggerated!

What's more, who wouldn't drool over Shen Yun's beauty and talent? She was a proper young lady of wealth!

If it were anyone else, they would probably agree immediately.

What's so bad about being a live-in son-in-law?

But Fang Ran.

He wouldn't agree.

It wasn't because he was a righteous gentleman, but because he had to give it up for his Beast Taming career and his kidney.

"I'm sorry, Old Shen, it's not that I don't like..."

Hearing these words, Old Shen's face slightly chilled, but his heart relaxed.

"Then forget it. From now on, just consider her your younger sister. Just help me protect her during this time."

Watching Fang Ran leave reluctantly,

Old Shen finally revealed a hint of a smile.

A moment later, Shen Yun approached him, looking indignant, and said, "Grandpa, what did you say to Fang Ran? Why did he leave in such a hurry?"

"Nothing much. He just said he wanted to interact with you more first."

...

And on this day,

A large number of Beast Tamer poured into Yu City.

They almost filled all the accommodations in Yu City.

Tie Jiuxin and the others also sent messages, asking Fang Ran to prepare a room for them.

After all, Fang Ran was a local in Yu City. When they came here, they naturally thought of Fang Ran first.

"Is this it? You want me to live in a place like this?" Tie Jiuxin looked at the dilapidated house in front of him, his face full of disdain.

"It's good enough to have a place to stay. What are you complaining about?" Bai Ling Shuang said, not caring at all.

And Zhang Er and his elder brother, who were beside them, naturally cared even less.

"We're here for the competition, not for tourism."

"Haha, Big Brother is right," Zhang Er said with a faint smile.

"Sigh, never mind. I'll just pick a random room."

Tie Jiuxin said, then was about to occupy Fang Ran's room.

"This is my room." Fang Ran stopped him and pointed to the sofa in the living room, saying, "You stay here."

Tie Jiuxin pointed to his face: "???"

"Zhang Er, you two can also make do in the living room. Bai Ling Shuang, you can stay in my uncle and aunt's room."

Hearing Fang Ran's words, even Zhang Er couldn't hold back.

These few people,

They were all worth hundreds of millions, proud children of heaven!

Yet they came to participate in the National Beastmaster Competition and were actually staying in a place like this!

"What's there to be disgusted about? I've lived here for so long, and I can still easily defeat you."

Fang Ran scoffed.

At this,

The few people immediately fell silent.

That's right, this was where Fang Ran used to live!

Perhaps, if they stayed here for a few days, they would achieve enlightenment!

"That actually makes some sense!" Tie Jiuxin said, stroking his chin.

"Tomorrow, we'll have to deal with Beast Military Academy and Sacred Beast Academy's Beast Tamer simultaneously. Jiang Xu from Beast Military Academy is very dangerous; remember him," Bai Ling Shuang said.

"Beast Military Academy?"

Fang Ran remembered that they were Beast Tamer specifically trained to deal with other Beast Tamer.

"Among Sacred Beast Academy, there are also two dual Transcendent Grade Beast Tamer. One of them has a contracted pet in the Transcendent Grade mid-stage. It's best not to encounter him," Tie Jiuxin also knew a lot of information.

"Transcendent Grade mid-stage is indeed not to be trifled with, but our goal is just to pass the screening. The top three can participate in the finals," Zhang Er quietly said.

The influence of the National Beastmaster Competition,

Far exceeded Fang Ran's imagination.

"For several days, the internet has been flooded with news about the competition, especially about you, Fang Ran. Many people are discussing your true strength."

Some even began to predict which academy's Beast Tamer would be the strongest this time, and others used this to gain popularity.

It could be said that the level of attention far exceeded what ordinary people could imagine.

Even before the competition began, some people had already taken leave to watch.

Transcendent Grade battles were a rare feast for ordinary people, and watching the clash of powerhouses always captivated attention.

And the world-class spot in the competition, along with the King-level Beast Taming, pushed it to its peak!

"The academies participating this time, in order to get the King-level cub, will probably stop at nothing. It's not impossible for more people to have contracted Transcendent Grade mid-stage Beast Taming!"
