Chapter 14: 012 Eat clean and wipe dry

"Yes, Xiaoyan! That’s it, Fire Cloud Tail!" Du Yu’s face was filled with surprise and excitement.

After half an hour of painstaking practice, the Little Fire Fox didn’t manage to learn the Copper-Level Demon Skill: Spark Splash, but instead grasped the Copper-Level Demon Skill: Fire Cloud Tail.

In short, it was completely unexpected!

After all, Du Yu had been insisting that the Little Fire Fox should spit out fireballs from its mouth, yet ultimately, it swung its large tail to unleash layers of fire mist...

One has to admit, Xiaoyan’s talent is indeed high. Despite Du Yu’s distractions and backward teaching methods, the fox still managed to master another demon skill.

No wonder it’s a heterochromatic variant from a mutation failure!

In the future, with Little Fen Yang’s help, once the Little Fire Fox fully transforms into a heterochromatic variant, how remarkable will that talent be?

The Little Fire Fox swung its enormous tail ahead, with sparks spreading from the tip, the fire mist grew increasingly dense, eventually dispersing layer upon layer.

Like a 360-degree impenetrable wall of flame, swallowing the Little Fire Fox’s figure within!

Shua~

"Ying!" The Little Fire Fox dashed out of the fire wall, excitedly swinging its large tail while looking up at Du Yu, seemingly to seek praise from its master, but...

However, upon seeing Du Yu’s bright eyes, it stopped in its tracks, staring blankly at its owner.

Always deeply interested in beautiful lady commanders, Xiaoyan finally recognized quality, and finally became enlightened!

She learned to appreciate Du Yu’s "beauty" at last.

Straightened out!

"Ying~" The Little Fire Fox ran back, climbing up Du Yu’s leg, moving incredibly gracefully, landing on Du Yu’s shoulder, and nuzzling its furry little head against Du Yu’s cheek.

"Uh." Du Yu’s face felt a little itchy, he grabbed her large tail with one hand, lifting the Little Fire Fox in front of him.

Signing a contract noticeably enhances the Demon Pet.

Even the lowest tier Demon Disciple Contract made the Little Fire Fox faster and more agile.

Yesterday, the Little Fire Fox had to drag its large tail, trembling as it walked, appearing determined despite its frailty.

Now, she can easily climb onto Du Yu’s shoulder.

"Don’t get cocky, wild Little Fire Fox can also master Fire Cloud Tail. We only learn it slightly quicker than other foxes." Du Yu said.

"Ying~" The Little Fire Fox stopped acting cute, that sound seemed to express disdain?

"Not true to heart." Little Fen Yang’s soft voice came, surprisingly speaking for the Little Fire Fox.

Indeed, having signed a contract, Du Yu’s inner joy couldn’t be hidden from the Little Fire Fox.

Held by its large tail, swaying in the air like a pendulum, the Little Fire Fox gazed at Du Yu with pleading eyes, conveying a message to Du Yu’s heart: "Hungry."

"Don’t be hungry, Xiaoyan! Let’s buckle down and master Spark Splash too, then we’ll go for a feast, okay?" Du Yu quickly said.

The Little Fire Fox remained silent, just gave Du Yu a sorrowful look, softening Du Yu’s heart for a moment...

He gently placed the Little Fire Fox on the ground, holding its large tail, his voice tender: "Gather flames in your mouth, just spit out a fireball."

Little Fire Fox: "..."

Little Fen Yang: "Du Yu Du Yu, you have a cruel heart, she’s already hungry~"

Du Yu: "Shh... Little Fen Yang, quieter. Du Yu is here, don’t let him hear."

Little Fen Yang: "Eh?"

Du Yu: "Go on, Xiaoyan! Use Spark Splash!"

"Xiaoyan?" a familiar pleasant voice came from behind.

Du Yu turned around to see the long-legged person, whose expression was unfriendly.

In an instant, the Little Fire Fox slipped away from his feet and ran straight towards Li Mengnan.

Li Mengnan kept a taut face, allowing the Little Fire Fox to climb onto her shoe, and ascend up her long legs.

In merely two seconds, Xiaoyan had quite literally climbed past Du Yu’s lifetime.

Until the end, Li Mengnan didn’t reach out to hold the Little Fire Fox, she seemed still upset?

"Ying~" The Little Fire Fox, feeling incredibly perceptive, sensed something was off, she stuck out her pink little tongue and gently licked Li Mengnan’s cheek.

Once, twice... There wasn’t even a third time!

"Hehe~" Li Mengnan’s cheek tickled, she finally relented, reaching for the Little Fire Fox.

You’re quite something, Sea King Yan!

You can flirt and coax, who can resist this?

Li Mengnan grabbed at empty air, while the Little Fire Fox lightly leaped, stepping on Li Mengnan’s hand and diving headfirst into her neckline.

"Hey! You little creature, I haven’t forgiven you yet!" Li Mengnan’s face turned red, she quickly turned around, fixing her clothes with her back to Du Yu, "Slipping away to seek other lady commanders behind my back?"

"Ying~" The Little Fire Fox’s muffled voice came from within Li Mengnan’s embrace.

Du Yu felt something in his heart, hearing some meaning from the Little Fire Fox’s call:

I like many people, but I like you more.

Du Yu’s expression was odd, he held back and held back, finally deciding not to say it. He feared that if Li Mengnan misunderstood, she might crush the Little Fire Fox...

"Why give her such a name?" Several seconds later, Li Mengnan finally turned around, the Little Fire Fox gently squirmed in her hands, once more caught in the grip of magic.

Du Yu: "I don’t want to say, afraid you’ll get too proud."

"Oh really?" Li Mengnan blinked, even more curious, "Tell me, tell me."

Du Yu felt helpless: "Xiaoyan doesn’t just cling to anyone. Did you see that girl over there?"

Following Du Yu’s direction, Li Mengnan saw a girl training a Wolf Lake Dog, one of the first five people to arrive at the northeast section of the playground.

Du Yu whispered: "From start to finish, Little Fire Fox had no intention of getting close to that girl."

Li Mengnan pondered for a moment, then a bright smile bloomed on her face, feeling delighted, she lifted Little Fire Fox and rubbed it against her cheek~

In a daze, Du Yu seemed to see Xiaoyan’s smug fox eyes.

This time, we caught them successfully~

Du Yu spoke: "Okay, okay, stop being clingy, hurry up and train. Instructor Gong said Demon Pets must master a Copper-level Demon Skill to eat."

"Second Brother, don’t worry! I was already training before signing the contract." Li Mengnan reached up to her forehead, as the Wind Element surged, she pulled out a Wind Witch Doll.

She successfully signed the contract too, and was now waving it around boastfully while holding the little puppet.

Poor Wind Witch Doll, its eyes were almost turning into little swirls...

Du Yu had a peculiar expression: "Second Brother?"

Wasn’t it Little Brother before?

Li Mengnan nodded: "Your performance earlier was not bad, you really helped me vent my anger!

You no longer have to be my devout follower, I’ll promote you on the spot, you can be my chief general!"

Du Yu was quite speechless, having awakened, this chick really cut loose.

He whispered: "Don’t be silly, I’m not joining your organization. I just graduated high school, and I don’t want to get busted by the Demon Spirit Bureau right after stepping out of the campus."

Li Mengnan looked at Du Yu with sympathetic eyes, speaking softly: "We are all late bloomers; forming a small group to help each other is the only way."

Du Yu was slightly moved, it was rare to see Li Mengnan being so serious.

Li Mengnan stepped forward and said in a faint tone: "Tell me, why are we here for training and assessment?"

Du Yu thought for a moment: "To become unofficial students?"

Li Mengnan gently pinched Xiaoyan’s big tail: "You said it yourself, at best, we’re just unofficial students.

We can’t compare with those naturally talented who awaken early; they awakened years before us and have systematic education, resources for training beyond our imagination."

Du Yu nodded in agreement.

Li Mengnan sighed lightly: "You’re so focused on books, never paying attention to the Demon Taming World, too many hidden rules here.

For example... after obtaining the unofficial student certificate, we need a full year of experience. A slightly challenging Demon Spirit Realm is not something you and I can venture into alone.

If you want to team up with others to complete the training tasks, why would those naturally talented take along a burden like you?"

Li Mengnan’s face turned serious, lowering her voice: "Moreover, even if we get lucky and someone is willing to help us...

During the training, when encountering Rare Exotic Fruits and rare Demon Pets, what chance would we have?"

Du Yu nodded silently, indicating he agreed but said: "Then just form a team, don’t make it sound like you’re an organizational leader."

Li Mengnan’s face lit up with joy, her beautiful eyes bright: "You agree?"

Du Yu did indeed need teammates, besides, before leaving, Teacher Li Hong entrusted him to look after Li Mengnan.

Upon successful training, removing the "unofficial" from the unofficial student title, and officially sending Little Mengnan into the gates of the Demon Spirit Academy, would be a way to repay Teacher Li Hong’s kindness.

Du Yu thought for a moment and said: "I agree, but I want to be the big brother. I’m afraid you’ll lead me astray."

Li Mengnan raised an eyebrow slightly: "Oh wow? You defy me?"

Du Yu shrugged his shoulders: "In the Demon Taming World, strength speaks."

Though only a few hours in this training base, Instructor Gong Cheng’s conduct implicitly communicated this message in every respect.

Li Mengnan was somewhat annoyed, this damn taciturn person was already annoying, becoming a Demon Tamer made them even more irritating!

She said: "In that case, let’s let strength do the talking!"

Du Yu instinctively reached for the Demon Soldier Black Wood on his back: "Are you sure?"

Are you sure you haven’t been headshot by auto-aim before?

Very well, young lady! You’re quite courageous!

Let’s see if my big rocket doesn’t take you down~

Li Mengnan hurriedly said: "We are Demon Tamers! Of course, we’ll use Demon Pets to battle!"

Du Yu: "Hmm?"

Li Mengnan really seemed confident, holding her head high, like a proud swan: "What do you think?"

Du Yu looked at the Little Fire Fox in her arms: "Then should we spar a bit?"

"Meow~" That was Xiaoyan acting cute.

"You little stinky fox, don’t worry, I’ll be gentle." Li Mengnan gently rubbed Xiaoyan’s big ears with her fingers, her words were soft, her heart was even softer.

Du Yu wondered if he was mistaken, but felt that Xiaoyan’s smiling fox eyes conveyed an air of easy control.

Poor Li Mengnan, sigh...

This is going to end with Sea King Yan devouring everything, even the bone scraps packed away?
