Xie Sen looked at the Giant Lion and asked in confusion, "What if more than one Giant Lion owner wants to form a contract with it?"
"The market price for a Grade A contract beast is twenty million. We will sell it to the owner with the highest starting price and the highest synchronization rate," Sun Mao said.
Xie Sen's eyes widened. Twenty million? How could MeiIn have so much money?
Just as he was thinking, his communicator rang. He stopped what he was doing and checked the communicator. It was MeiIn.
He said to Sun Mao, "I have a friend who is also a Giant Lion owner. I asked him to come over. Can you let him in?"
Sun Mao looked at the Giant Lion that was about to get up after Xie Sen's hand left. He hurriedly said, "Clean its wounds. I will ask someone to lead him in."
Xie Sen nodded and connected to MeiIn's communicator. He asked the person Sun Mao had arranged to come in. He thought for a moment and was worried that he was not mentally prepared. He said to him, "The people from the Kes family are here too."
MeiIn was not surprised at all. "Three of the noble families have Giant Lions as their contract beasts. They will come when they hear the news."
Xie Sen suddenly understood. He subconsciously lowered his voice. "The price of a Giant Lion is twenty million. You …"
"Let's see the synchronization rate first. If it is high enough, I will think of a way." MeiIn did not seem worried. His tone was calm.
Xie Sen sighed in relief. "That's good. Come over first."
Xie Sen hung up the communicator and treated the Giant Lion's wounds. He was packing up the medicine and cloth when a young man's voice came from the door.
"Oh! It's so cool. I want it! "
He turned his head and saw a young man in a tailored black suit running quickly toward the Giant Lion. Behind him was a middle-aged man with a serious expression and two strong bodyguards.
The young man was about 1.93 meters tall. He had curly blond hair and delicate facial features. He was somewhat similar to MeiIn. He was a little chubby and had baby fat on his face.
He ran excitedly in front of the Giant Lion. The Giant Lion seemed to sense something. It stood up from the ground and growled.
The young man wasn't afraid. He jumped and reached out to touch the lion, but was stopped by the stern-looking man. "Ruilo!"
"Father." Young Ruello retracted his hand and stood still. He turned to look at the approaching middle-aged man. "He's rejecting me. I can feel that our synchronization rate is over 50."
The middle-aged man nodded. "That's right. Before forming a contract, a high-level contract beast will reject anyone who might become its Beast Master. It will only willingly form a contract with a Beast Master that it obeys."
He paused and reminded him, "Before you make it obey, you must restrain yourself and not provoke it."
Ruilo nodded. "I understand, Father."
Sun Mao waited for the father and son to finish speaking before he stepped forward to greet them. "Lieutenant General Kox."
Mai Er Cox nodded and praised: "As expected of a gold medal. It has been a long time since an A-class contracted beast appeared in the market." He looked at the Giant Lion: "How is it?"
"Great." Sun Mao's eyes glowed. "Its stamina, intelligence, muscle strength and toughness are all perfect. It only suffered some external injuries, but they have been cleaned. It will recover soon."
Mai Er nodded in satisfaction and made a decision. "Arrange for a synchronization test. As long as Ruilo's synchronization rate is over 50%, we will initiate the contract ceremony."
Sun Mao thought to himself that this was a good plan. They wanted to form a contract as soon as possible so that there wouldn't be competition from other Beast Masters with higher synchronization rates!
He put on a standard smile. "The synchronization test is ready, but there are still a few Beast Masters who haven't arrived yet. Please wait a moment, Lieutenant General Kox."
"Mine is enough. I can form a contract with it!" Ruilo shouted.
Mai Er also looked unhappy. Sun Mao smiled and explained, "All contract beasts are sold like this. The higher the synchronization rate, the stronger they are. Synchronization rate is more important for high-level contract beasts. According to the rules, we must choose the buyer with the highest synchronization rate."
"Brother Kox, don't be so impatient. I brought my son here for the test. If it's lower than yours, I'll take him back." A hearty voice came from the door.
Xie Sen looked over. It was a dark-skinned, muscular man. Beside him was a tall, thin young man.
"Lieutenant General Ya Ben," Sun Mao greeted.
"Brother, you're so well-informed. I rushed over as soon as I heard the news, but I'm still the last one here." Ya Ben had only taken a few steps when a rough voice came from behind him.
This time, it was a tall, strong, middle-aged man with yellow skin. He had a young man beside him.
Sun Mao greeted him again. "Lieutenant General Qiao."
Lieutenant General Qiao took a few steps forward. Another person came in, but he didn't say a word. He was very quiet.
Xie Sen's eyes lit up. He quickly ran to the door. Everyone's attention was on the Giant Lion, so they didn't notice him. His sudden movement attracted everyone's attention.
"Father, why is he here? Did you inform him? " Rui Luo looked in the direction Xie Sen was running and saw MeiIn. He looked at Mai Er in disbelief and suppressed his anger.
"No," Mai Er said in a low voice. He warned, "This isn't how you should treat me."
"Sorry, Father. I was just too surprised." Rui Luo lowered his head and apologized.
The other two families' parents and young men looked at each other. They were waiting for a good show to happen.
"MeiIn." Xie Sen ran into MeiIn midway. He looked at MeiIn. MeiIn was still dressed in black. There were no wounds on his skin. He smiled. "Were you in a hurry?"
"It's okay." MeiIn looked up and paused. Xie Sen looked at him worriedly and changed the subject. "Manager Sun said the synchronization test is ready. Now that everyone is here, we can start the test."
MeiIn nodded. "Okay."
"Why are you here?" As the two approached, Rui Luo walked up to MeiIn and questioned him loudly.
Xie Sen scurried in front of MeiIn unhappily. "I told him to come. He's the Beast Master of the Giant Lion. Why can't he come?"
MeiIn didn't expect him to block his way. He stared at the top of his black hair in surprise.
Rui Luo glanced down at him and said in disdain, "Who are you? Are you a female friend of his? You have bad taste. "
"You're the female!" Xie Sen glared at him. "I'm his friend. Also, my taste is a hundred times better than yours!"
Rui Luo clicked his tongue and looked at MeiIn mockingly. "Friend? I didn't expect you to have friends. "
MeiIn's expression darkened. Xie Sen frowned.
"Rui Luo," Mai Er said in a low voice and looked at Rui Luo warningly.
Sun Mao interrupted in time. "Everyone, please come with me. We'll do the synchronization test."
As he spoke, he looked at Xie Sen and pointed to a square metal device in the upper left corner. "Little Sen, lead the Giant Lion there."
"Is there no one else in your gold medal? You're letting him do this? Don't let the Giant Lion stomp him to death, "Rui Luo mocked.
Stupid kid. Xie Sen glared at him. MeiIn grabbed his arm. "I'll go with you."
"No need." Xie Sen smiled. "I'm fine. You follow Manager Sun."
Sun Mao smiled and said, "Only Xiao Sen can do this. Beast Lord, come with me to prepare."
Xie Sen walked to the Giant Lion. Provoked by the Beast Master, the Giant Lion remained standing. When Xie Sen walked closer, it lowered its head to look at him.
Xie Sen jumped up and touched its chin. Then he walked to its front leg and hugged it. He used a little force to tell it to move.
The Giant Lion was very smart. It immediately understood what Sun Mao meant and followed the force to where Sun Mao pointed.
"Who is he?" Lieutenant General Ya Ben, who was waiting for his son to put on the device, asked Sun Mao in surprise.
Sun Mao smiled. "He's one of our employees. He has a very strong affinity. All the contracted beasts like him."
"That's amazing." Lieutenant General Qiao rubbed his chin. "I've lived for so many years, but I've never seen such an obedient uncontracted Grade A beast."
After putting on the device, MeiIn looked in Xie Sen's direction. The Giant Lion was lying on the ground. Xie Sen was rubbing its mane.
Lieutenant General Xie Sen looked at him thoughtfully. "He's the student who was on the hot search list because of Dean Ma and Dean Mu?"
The three Lieutenant Generals looked at each other. They could see the speculation and surprise in each other's eyes.
MeiIn saw this and frowned.
After the four Giant Lion Beast Masters put on the device, Sun Mao led them to the metal device beside the Giant Lion.
He turned on the device. A pair of footprints was projected on the ground in front of it. Sun Mao said, "Everyone, stand at the footprints. Ten seconds later, you'll know the synchronization rate."
They looked at each other. Lieutenant General Qiao patted his son's shoulder. "You go first."
Ten seconds later, the device showed a 50% synchronization rate.
Next was Ya Ben's son. His synchronization rate was 15.53%.
MeiIn stepped forward. Rui Luo immediately said, "I'll go first!" He quickly walked to the footprints. His synchronization rate was 58%.
He smiled and jumped to the side. When he saw that MeiIn's synchronization rate was 60%, his smile froze.
Lieutenant General Ya Ben laughed. "Brother Xie Sen is still the best." Although he didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that he was referring to the two with the highest synchronization rates. They were both Mai Er's sons.
Rui Luo clenched his teeth. He pointed at MeiIn and said loudly, "He doesn't count. He can't afford it!"
Sun Mao looked at MeiIn questioningly. MeiIn said, "Can you give me a few days?"
Xie Sen looked at him in shock. A few days and he could come up with 20 million?
"Didn't you say that we have to choose from those who can afford it? He can't afford it! "Rui Luo was unhappy.
Sun Mao ignored him. Instead, he looked at Mai Er awkwardly. The two with the highest synchronization rates were both surnamed Xie. If Mai Er agreed with Rui Luo and insisted that MeiIn couldn't afford it, he wouldn't be able to take away his right to participate.
Xie Sen couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with a few days? Do you have to pay the full amount now? "
MeiIn patted his shoulder and suggested to Sun Mao, "I can give you half of the deposit first."
"You have 10 million? Where did you get so much money? "Rui Luo was shocked. He looked at Mai Er suspiciously." Father, you … "
"Shut up!" The veins on Mai Er's forehead bulged. He looked at MeiIn and asked the same question as Rui Luo, "Where did you get the money?"
MeiIn looked down and didn't reply. Xie Sen only knew that MeiIn earned money by hunting. However, meat was sold at 10 galactic credits per kilo at the supermarket. Hunting would definitely be cheaper. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't have earned 10 million.
Even if he got all 10 million from hunting, he couldn't tell anyone. MeiIn was illegally leaving the city!
Rui Luo was silent for a moment before he spoke again. His voice was full of realization. "Uncle must have given it to you, right? I'll contact him right now and forbid him from giving you the money. Even if you pay half of it now, you can't pay the rest! "
MeiIn didn't say anything. He just looked at Sun Mao questioningly.
Rui Luo was about to say something when Mai Er's communicator rang. Everyone quieted down and listened to him explain the current situation. Then, he grunted and hung up.
As soon as he hung up, Rui Luo hurriedly asked, "Is that from Grandfather? What did he say? "
Mai Er looked at MeiIn. "I'll arrange for Rui Luo to participate in the graduation tournament. Whoever ranks higher will be contracted to him."
He paused. "If you win, the 20 million fee will be paid by the Kes family."
"Father!" Rui Luo was unhappy.
"This is your grandfather's idea." Mai Er looked at him and then said to Sun Mao, "My assistant will pay the fee later. No matter who wins, the contract ceremony will be held after the ninth tournament. Take care of the lion for the next few days. You can negotiate with my assistant about the fee."
"Okay." Sun Mao nodded.
The lieutenant generals left with their sons. Xie Sen looked at the silent MeiIn and felt sorry for him. He could have contracted the lion directly!
He looked up at MeiIn and waved his fist. He said firmly, "We'll definitely win the championship. He'll be your contracted beast!"
MeiIn stared at him for a while and suddenly laughed. He couldn't help but rub the top of his head. "It's okay. Actually …" He lowered his voice. "60% is a bit low."
He said helplessly, "But high-level contracted beasts are too rare. You'll be lucky if you meet one above 50%. If you miss it, you might never meet one again in your lifetime."
Xie Sen's heart jumped. He remembered that Long Teng and MeiIn had extremely high synchronization rates with S-level contracted beasts. They were both above 85%. That was why they were so strong.
His gaze fell on MeiIn's chest. Could MeiIn have seen wrong?
"What are you thinking about in broad daylight?" Sun Mao patted his shoulder with his left hand and smiled ambiguously. He rested his chin on his right hand and said, "That's right. It's impossible for a small male like you to find a female. It's better to find a male!"
"Don't worry, we don't discriminate against gays." Sun Mao said and looked at MeiIn. "Xiao Sen has a good temper and is hardworking. Other than being infertile, he's much better than females. You should consider him. He likes you a lot. He wanted to tear your clothes apart with his gaze just now. "
Xie Sen was speechless and embarrassed. He slapped Sun Mao's hand. "Manager Sun, don't talk nonsense. We … we're not gay."
MeiIn's gaze fell on his slightly red ears. He rubbed his fingers and nodded seriously. "I'll consider it."
Xie Sen glanced at him speechlessly. "What are you doing!" He looked at the time. "I still have one and a half hours to get off work. You can go home first!"
Sun Mao's eyes lit up. "Oh ~ So you're already living together!"
"Manager, I'm going back to the maintenance department. Don't look for me in the future." Xie Sen said and walked out.
Sun Mao reached out and pulled him back. "Why are you still angry? You're not a qualified employee. Don't worry about the maintenance department for now. Take care of the Giant Lion for the next two days. It's best if it gets used to staying here. It'll be troublesome if it causes trouble when you're participating in the league!"
Sun Mao's communicator rang after he finished speaking. He picked it up and gave some instructions to Xie Sen before leaving the fourth district.
MeiIn said, "I'm free today. I'll wait here for you to get off work."
Xie Sen sat cross-legged on the ground and touched the Giant Lion's paw. He waved at him. "That's fine too. You can familiarize yourself with it. I heard that even if your synchronization rate is high enough, it's not easy to make him submit to you."
"Yes, this is the nature of beasts. They will only submit to creatures that are stronger than them."
MeiIn said and sat next to him. He looked at the Giant Lion and tilted his head in confusion. He reached out and touched the Giant Lion's paw like Xie Sen did.
The Giant Lion raised its eyes and looked at him, then narrowed them again.
"Eh?" Xie Sen thought about what he had heard before and couldn't help but feel strange. "Didn't they say that contracted beasts will reject people who might become their master? It doesn't seem to reject you."
"I think it's strange too." MeiIn frowned. After a while, he guessed. "Could it be because of you?"
Xie Sen wasn't sure, but he was more inclined to think that MeiIn had made a mistake about his contracted beast.
He blinked his eyes and couldn't help but feel curious. He pointed at MeiIn's chest and asked, "Can I see your contracted beast tattoo?"
MeiIn's expression changed slightly. He looked at him and whispered, "Do you know what you're talking about?"
Xie Sen nodded. "Of course, I'm very curious."
MeiIn looked at his clear eyes and felt an inexplicable disappointment. He rubbed the bridge of his nose. "You've forgotten a lot of things. Don't say such things to others in the future."
Xie Sen realized that something was wrong. Before he could ask, MeiIn explained, "This is what a female confesses to a male. The beast tattoo is the symbol of a male. If a female makes such a request, it means that she likes a male."
Xie Sen was stunned. He waved his hands. "I don't know … And I'm not a female. Even if I confess, I won't say it like that!"
Bah, what was he thinking! There were only men here. How could he confess to anyone?
MeiIn chuckled and raised his eyebrows. "Then what do you say when you confess?"
Xie Sen met his gaze and his heartbeat inexplicably sped up. He looked away. "Just say that you like me!" He changed the topic. "Can I see it? I'm very curious. "
Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered that he had seen MeiIn take off his clothes before!
"That's not right." He looked at MeiIn in surprise. "Are you actually a female? The last time you changed your clothes, you didn't have a beast tattoo on your chest. "
If they hadn't talked about this, he wouldn't have noticed that something was wrong. In his mind, it was normal to not have a beast tattoo.
MeiIn's mouth curled up. His voice was low and dangerous. "You think I look like a female?"
"No, no, no." Xie Sen hurriedly waved his hands. "I'm just curious."
MeiIn said, "Didn't you notice that your contracted beast tattoo doesn't usually appear? It only appears when you're in an intense mood or when you're trying to control it. "
Where did he have a beast tattoo?
Xie Sen laughed dryly. "I didn't notice." He looked at MeiIn expectantly. "Can I see it?"
After listening to MeiIn's explanation, he felt more and more that MeiIn might have made a mistake. The beast tattoo was on his chest and didn't usually appear, so it was very possible that he didn't see it clearly.
Flying Lion and Giant Lion. Their names were very similar, and they also looked very similar. He still remembered the description in the book — Flying Lion was a lion with wings.
MeiIn hesitated for a moment, then he lifted his clothes and quickly took off his T-shirt. His skin was very white, but it wasn't weak. His muscles were firm and looked like they contained great strength.
Xie Sen stared at his chest. Gradually, a roaring lion head appeared in the middle of MeiIn's white chest. The lion's eyes were fierce. Xie Sen only looked at the beast tattoo, and he felt as if the lion's roar was ringing in his ears. It was powerful and fierce.
Xie Sen looked for a while, but he couldn't find any difference between the beast tattoo and the Giant Lion.
Could the wings be white and covered by the skin?
Xie Sen thought. He supported his head with his hands and wanted to take a closer look.
MeiIn's body subconsciously tensed up. Xie Sen was so close that MeiIn could even feel his breath. Every time his breath hit his skin, he felt itchy, as if it went through his skin and into his heart.
Seeing Xie Sen getting closer and closer, MeiIn couldn't help but reach out and grab the back of his collar. Just as he was about to pull back, a surprised voice came from the door.
"I'm sorry to disturb you. You can continue!" The person who came in was shocked to see a shirtless man throwing himself into the man's arms.
A Sen's posture, why did it look like, like he was sucking …
Stop! The person who came in put the food bucket by the door and quickly said, "Xiao Sen, this is food for the Giant Lion. Remember to feed it before you get off work."
While he was still talking, the person had already disappeared and the door was tightly closed.
Xie Sen was stunned by the person's action. When he came back to his senses, he realized that something was wrong. Why was he so close to MeiIn?
He glanced to the left. Why was MeiIn's hand on his shoulder? A hug?
"You …" He looked up in surprise, and his forehead brushed against MeiIn's chin.
MeiIn looked down at him, grabbed his collar and pulled back a little. Xie Sen instantly realized that he had misunderstood and stepped back with a red face.
MeiIn glanced at his red face, "You were too close. Did you see it clearly? If you saw it clearly, I'll put on my clothes. "
"I saw it clearly." Xie Sen nodded in embarrassment, but when he thought about the animal tattoo that was no different from the Giant Lion's, he couldn't help but show a puzzled expression.
"Is there a problem?" MeiIn saw that his expression was not right and asked as he put on his clothes.
Xie Sen thought about it and asked, "Could there be two types of contracted beasts that have the same animal tattoo? For example, the Giant Tiger and the Flying Tiger, or some other tiger-like beast? "
"No, every contracted beast's animal tattoo is unique. At most, it's similar." MeiIn heard his question and guessed what he was thinking. "Are you suspecting that I've contracted the wrong beast because the Giant Lion doesn't reject me?"
Xie Sen touched the back of his head and laughed. "I just like to think too much."
MeiIn laughed. He liked that Xie Sen thought too much about him. It made him feel warm. No one had ever done that for him before.
As he laughed, he suddenly thought of Rui Luo's mocking expression when he said, "How dare you make friends?" He lowered his head and his smile gradually disappeared.
Xie Sen didn't notice. He stood up and patted his pants. "I'll go get the animal food. It was injured before, so I don't know if it's hungry."
Xie Sen walked to the door and looked at the wooden bucket that could be used as a water tank in modern times. He looked helpless. He tried to lift it, but it didn't budge, so he pulled the edge and dragged it slowly.
"I'll do it." MeiIn walked to his side and patted him on the shoulder.
Xie Sen let go and watched enviously as MeiIn lifted the bucket easily. He quickly followed and had MeiIn put the bucket next to the food trough. When MeiIn put the bucket down, he picked up a large pair of tongs and put the meat into the trough.
MeiIn grabbed his wrist. "Don't tongs. I'll do it. You step back."
Xie Sen looked at him and did as he was told. MeiIn grabbed the bottom of the bucket and lifted it up, pouring all the animal food into the trough at once.
Xie Sen's face was full of admiration. This boyfriend's ability was off the charts! He gave MeiIn a thumbs up. "Amazing. If you work here, the feeding department can hire a lot less people."
MeiIn smiled. Xie Sen ran to the lion and rubbed its mane. He pointed to the trough. "Are you hungry? Go eat something."
The lion tilted its head and rubbed against his hand. It stood up and went to the trough to eat.
"You're very popular with contract beasts?" MeiIn asked.
"Yes, I'm very friendly with them. I like them very much." Xie Sen smiled. He looked at the lion who was eating and thought of Sun Mao's words. He frowned. "If it doesn't submit, there's a way to force it to form a contract with the Beast Master, right?"
"Yes," MeiIn said. "I won't force my contract beasts. A Beast Master who can't make his contract beasts submit doesn't deserve to form a contract with a contract beast."
Xie Sen's frown disappeared. "You're so nice." He looked at the lion worriedly. "If you don't form a contract with it, it'll be Rui Luo's turn. If he can't make the lion submit, he'll force it."
"Are you confident that you'll win?" MeiIn asked with a smile.
"Of course." Xie Sen's eyes lit up. "You, Long Teng, and Bai Jiao are recognized as the strongest team on the forum. You'll definitely win."
"Then you don't have to worry. I'll make it submit." MeiIn was very confident.
Xie Sen shrugged helplessly. He felt that something was wrong. Everything was the same as in the books, but MeiIn's contract beast was wrong.
MeiIn was silent for a moment. Then he said, "You like to browse the forum?"
"Not really. I usually only browse the forum when I have questions and ask for answers." Xie Sen thought of the neatly organized replies on the forum and couldn't help but laugh. "You guys are recognized as the strongest team, but they all think that it's impossible for you guys to form a team. I'm really looking forward to their reactions when they find out."
"You'll see tomorrow." MeiIn said, "Tomorrow, the team registration ends. The list of all team members will be announced, and the prizes will be given out according to the list."
After he finished answering, he looked at Xie Sen. "They should have listed the reasons why we won't form a team. You saw it, right?"
Xie Sen thought of MeiIn's words. His smile faded. He looked at him and said sincerely, "Don't mind it. People can't choose their own background. It has nothing to do with you."
He smiled and gestured. "They don't understand you. You're great. Better than anyone I know. You're good-looking, can fight, and can make money. You have a plan when you do things. You're also very kind!"
MeiIn stared at him for a while. He chuckled and whispered, "I hope you can always think like this."
Xie Sen blinked and quickly said, "As long as you're like this, of course I'll always think like this!"
No dark transformation, no exotic beasts to attack Brent Planet.
The two chatted casually. Soon, it was time to get off work. Xie Sen asked MeiIn to wait for him at the door while he swiped his card.
Along the way, he felt that his colleagues were looking at him with very subtle expressions. He looked down at his clothes. There was nothing wrong with them.
He swiped his card in confusion. Sun Mao suddenly appeared behind him and patted him on the shoulder. He gave him a thumbs up. "Amazing. You got it so quickly. But you have to know how to control yourself. You also have to pay attention to the time and place. Restrain yourself when you're at work."
He smiled mockingly. "Anyway, you guys are living together. You can do whatever you want at night."
Xie Sen was confused at first. He didn't understand what he was saying at all. He finally understood. He grabbed Sun Mao's arm and gritted his teeth. "What nonsense are you talking about? I said we're just friends."
"Do I look like an idiot?" Sun Mao pointed his index finger at himself and shook it left and right. "You should use these words to coax children. Now everyone in the company knows that you were having sex with a handsome guy on the grass in District 4 during work hours."
Xie Sen's voice almost came out from between his teeth. "Everyone?"
"Yes, there's a witness." Sun Mao laughed and patted him on the shoulder. "It's okay. The brothers won't laugh at you. They're all praising you. You look like a female, but I didn't expect you to be so fierce. Refreshing!"
Xie Sen covered his face. "What the hell? Nothing happened. What nonsense are you talking about!"
He let go of his hand and gritted his teeth. "What's the name of the person who sent the food to the Giant Lion? Tell me. I promise I won't beat him to death! "
Sun Mao shook his head. "The company forbids internal fighting. I can't tell you since you look so peaceful. Be thick-skinned. It's not a big deal."
Xie Sen looked at Sun Mao's smiling face. He really wanted to beat him up. He didn't want to act like he was beating up his boss. He waved goodbye and ran to the door.
"Did someone bully you?" MeiIn looked at his gloomy and angry face and asked coldly.
Xie Sen looked up at him. Thinking of the rumors, he felt embarrassed and funny at the same time. He couldn't help but laugh. "No one bullied me. It's just that I seem to have accidentally ruined your reputation."
"Mine?"
"Yes." Xie Sen coughed softly and was a little embarrassed. "Someone saw me looking at your animal tattoo. He misunderstood that we were doing it … and the news spread."
MeiIn's eyes flashed with a smile. "It's okay. I don't mind."
Xie Sen thought that he was indeed too thin-skinned. What was there to be afraid of when two men misunderstood!
However, the next day, he still felt very uncomfortable when his colleagues looked at him with ridicule, surprise, admiration, and ridicule.
During lunch, he met Yang Shun. Yang Shun was as gentle as usual. The two of them ate together. During the meal, Yang Shun didn't tease him at all. Xie Sen was so touched that he cried.
After the meal, when they were about to go back to their respective resting rooms, Yang Shun said in a concerned tone, "I sent you a website. I think you might need it. You are a male, so you need to be more careful than us females."
Xie Sen returned to his resting room with a puzzled expression. What did he need to be more careful than females?
He opened his bracelet and clicked on the link Yang Shun sent him. Then, he was speechless.
Moisturizer, condoms, after-care cream … What the hell are these things?!
How could he use them?
Xie Sen's face was red as he deleted Yang Shun's message and all his web browsing. Then, he opened the school forum.
As soon as he entered the forum, he saw a hot post with a flame logo floating at the top. "Shocking! They actually formed a team! "
He clicked on it. The main post was a list of the team members in the league. One of the teams was highlighted in red and was particularly eye-catching. It was their team.
"I can't believe it. Aren't they solo?"
"I'm very curious. How did Trash Xie get in?"
"Didn't anyone notice that these people are isolated? I guess they are huddling together for warmth. "
"Maybe it's just to win the championship? There's no need to talk about the abilities of the other three. After Trash Xie failed suicide and awakened the mimicry beast, his abilities are very mysterious. He won the battle with A Meng quickly and easily. I don't think he's weak. "
"Then it's over. There's no need to think about the championship."
"Upstairs, you really have dreams. You dare to think about the championship?"
"I'm bursting with curiosity now. I want to know Trash Xie's abilities. To be able to form a team with the three of them, I feel that he's not simple."
"+ 1, I'm also very curious. With Long Teng's personality, he must have fought with him before. Since he formed a team with him, he definitely recognizes his abilities."
"The more I talk about it, the more I feel that Trash Xie is unfathomable."
Xie Sen couldn't help but laugh. Unfathomable?! Isn't the hole in your brain too big? To form a team with Long Teng, you don't need to be on the same level. You just need to know the way.
After he finished laughing, he chose to remain anonymous and replied to the comments. "Xie Sen defeated A Meng in a battle and got first place in the graduation exam. How can he be called trash? The people chatting on the forum are all the top students in the school, right? "
He sent a shy emoji. "Browsing the forum with such amazing people like you guys, I feel so awesome!"
After he sent out his reply, the post seemed to freeze for a moment. Originally, there were ten replies in one minute. After this reply appeared, it took two minutes for someone to reply.
"I can't believe that Xie Sen actually has supporters. This is such a strong sarcastic tone!"
"Isn't it a joke to be first in the plant course?"
"… Am I the only one who thinks that it makes sense? It's not good to call him that now. "
"I think he's Trash Xie himself. Being first in the plant course has no value at all. If he wants people to change his title, it's simple. He just needs to go on the battle stage and beat all the people who look down on him. If he can't even beat Trash Xie, the title of trash should change."
Xie Sen snorted and replied, "So, A Meng, who lost to Xie Sen, will be called Fierce Trash in the future?"
A Meng: "Who calls him that? See you on the battle stage!"
"Wow, A Meng has appeared."
Xie Sen had already posted the comment he wanted to post. He also saw the surprised reactions of his classmates. He looked at the time. If he didn't rest now, he wouldn't have enough time to sleep. Thus, he closed the forum and went for his afternoon nap.
His afternoon job was still to take care of the giant lion. He only occasionally went to the maintenance department to help. This slowed down his energy collection. When he got off work, his total energy collection was only 35 yuan.
When he returned to the apartment, Grandpa Long Teng came over to return the food box. "Your cooking is amazing. It's delicious. I've washed the food box. I was busy yesterday and didn't return it to you in time."
"It's okay." Xie Sen took the food box and pushed the door open. Grandpa followed him into the house. Xie Sen turned back. "Grandpa, is there anything else?"
Grandpa smiled. "There's something I want to ask you. Let's sit and talk."
Xie Sen led him to the living room. He guessed that Grandpa wanted to ask him how he got the potato. He was prepared to answer with luck again.
However, Grandpa's words directly blocked his answer. Grandpa went straight to the point. "Where did you get the potato? I've checked the buyer's information from Wealthy Supermarket. You're not there. The other buyers have no contact with you. "
'Is there such a thing?' Xie Sen asked in surprise. "How did you find out the buyer's information?"
Grandpa smiled. "I know the boss." He blinked and softened his voice. "I thought you were a plant-type Beast Master and your contracted beast was the Chili Tree. However, the potato suddenly appeared. I don't understand."
Xie Sen was not surprised by Grandpa's guess of his identity. Grandpa had hinted a lot last time and he knew that Grandpa had guessed his identity.
He spread his hands. "Just take it that I picked it up on the road!"
Grandpa was very perceptive. He knew that he was unwilling to tell the truth. He laughed. "You're not going to find an excuse to lie to me?"
Xie Sen was helpless. "Is there any use?"
Grandpa smiled. "I'm just trying my luck. It's normal to have secrets. I'm looking for you for other things."
Grandpa's smile disappeared and his expression became serious. "Currently, only Wealthy Supermarket sells potatoes in the market. Those potatoes are produced by the research lab of the Plant Research Institute. The production is low and the size is small. The taste is not as good as the potato you gave me."
"I know Ma Qun and have some understanding of potatoes. They can be cut into pieces and cultivated. Can you give me a potato and let me take it to the Plant Research Institute for research?"
Xie Sen was slightly moved. He actually wanted to grow potatoes, but because the League Tournament was coming soon, he did not want to spend energy to exchange. Moreover, he had not found a suitable place to grow them.
He had not seen any exposed soil on Brent Star. Even if the potatoes redeemed by the System had strong survivability, they could not grow in rocks.
Grandpa saw that he did not speak and continued. "If you don't want to be exposed, I'll keep it a secret for you."
"What if they ask you where it came from?" Xie Sen felt that it was not reliable to keep it a secret.
Grandpa smiled. "I brought it back from another planet. My family is an interstellar merchant and we've discovered many new species. They won't be suspicious."
Xie Sen saw that Grandpa was not an ordinary merchant. He thought for a while. "I can agree, but if the cultivation is successful, you have to provide me with potatoes every week for free."
This way, he would not need to waste energy to eat potatoes and would not have to think about growing them himself.
"No problem!" Grandpa agreed immediately.
Xie Sen returned to his room and exchanged one energy for a potato. He took it to the living room and handed it to Grandpa. Grandpa was overjoyed. He turned the potato over and examined it, then put it close to him and smelled it.
"This is much better than the ones cultivated by the Research Institute!"
Xie Sen looked at him and could not help but say, "If you eat it, there won't be any left."
Sir System coughed dryly. "I still know what's important and what's not." He stood up and was about to leave when he thought of something. He sat back down and looked at Xie Sen expectantly. "Can you give me a chili too?"
Xie Sen thought for a while. Since he had given him the potato, there was no need to hide the chili. If it could be cultivated, he would not have to worry about food.
He returned to his room and exchanged for a chili. When he was about to pluck it, he had an idea. He did not go to the living room but to the kitchen.
When he returned to the living room, his eyes and nose were red. He held a small paper bag in his hand and handed it to Grandpa. "This is the seed of the chili. It's suitable for cultivation. Don't touch it with your hands, it's too spicy."
Grandpa took the paper bag carefully and looked at Xie Sen with shining eyes. "What about the rest?"
Xie Sen raised his eyebrows proudly and smiled without saying a word.
He thought that since he had to exchange one energy for chili, he might as well make the best use of it. He instructed the chili to keep the seeds and fry the rest into powder. He would give the seeds to Grandpa for research and save the chili powder to make spicy jerky.
Fortunately, the chili tree listened to his instructions. Otherwise, his hands would definitely be swollen from the spiciness.
The League Tournament would start tomorrow. He could make some spicy jerky to eat. Food in the wild was too unstable.
Grandpa could guess even if he did not say it. "Are you making spicy jerky? Sell it to me for half a kilogram. I don't want it for free. I want to buy it! "
Xie Sen smiled and nodded. "I'll send it to you later."
Grandpa left in satisfaction. After a while, MeiIn came back. Xie Sen asked him to take a shower first and went to the kitchen to make dinner.
After dinner, he went to the kitchen to make spicy jerky. He made a total of four kilograms. He left half a kilogram for Grandpa and divided the rest into four food boxes.
After packing, he sent Grandpa's half a kilogram to the next door. Then, he borrowed a backpack from MeiIn and put the rest into the backpack.
The next day, he carried the backpack and took MeiIn's shuttle to school.
The contestants were sent to the southernmost part of Jade Pearl Island by the school. At ten o 'clock, all the contestants left together. Their destination was the northernmost part.
When he arrived at school, Xie Sen was very excited. "I'm looking forward to meeting my teammates."
MeiIn, who was wearing a black long-sleeved shirt and trousers, walked side by side with him. He could understand his feelings. "It's not like you don't know them."
Xie Sen said, "How is this the same as usual? Besides, I haven't talked to Bai Jiao yet! "
He paused and looked around. "Don't you feel that … the way our classmates are looking at us is a little strange?"
MeiIn was not affected at all. "It's strange if it's strange." He was used to all kinds of looks.
"Here!" As soon as they arrived at the sports field, they saw Long Teng jumping and waving at them. Beside him stood a handsome young man with long white hair. It was Bai Jiao.
When the four of them met, Xie Sen smiled and said to Bai Jiao, "Hello, I'm Xie Sen."
Bai Jiao's voice was very clean and pleasant to listen to. "Hello, I'm Bai Jiao."
"Haha," Long Teng laughed. "You two are too formal!"
As he spoke, he put his hand on Xie Sen's shoulder and looked into his backpack. "Grandpa said you made delicious food. Is that what's in your backpack?"
MeiIn pulled his collar and pulled him away. Bai Jiao looked at MeiIn. "The situation is not good. Someone paid a high price to buy off a lot of teams to stop us."
Xie Sen frowned and immediately thought of Rui Luo. He said unhappily, "Is the organizer not going to do anything?"
MeiIn said, "It's not easy to investigate this. The organizer encourages contestants to set up obstacles for their opponents."
"What's there to be afraid of? We'll fight whoever comes!" Long Teng jumped on the spot, his face full of excitement.
