Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger

All the opponents were snatched away, and unable to stoop to the vulgarity of stealing opponents, it could only watch eagerly.

But the next moment, the situation on the field suddenly changed.

These pet beasts left the battlefield and simultaneously retreated backward.

Members of the New Star Association in black robes turned without hesitation, their figures swallowed instantly by the dark night.

Li Junyue shouted: "Chase!"

They were unfamiliar with the local environment, and now it was deep night; if these guys scattered everywhere, their difficulty in capturing them would skyrocket.

"Awooo!"

The Cyan Wind Hunting Dog responsible for tracking howled and wagged its tail, locking onto multiple scents in the air, and dashed forward.

The Flowing Cloud Sparrow flew high into the sky, using its superb night vision to capture the whereabouts of these guys, guiding the fourth group.

"Cola, you go."

Chen Yuan felt it was not necessary to be so troublesome.

Chen Yuan’s voice echoed in Cola’s mind, instantly rousing its spirit. A breeze enveloped its body as Wind Stepping activated, and it charged forward at a speed beyond human vision, rapidly approaching the yet-to-be-dispersed New Star Association members.

"Awooo!"

Urgent barking sounded behind, causing a New Star Association member to reflexively glance back, only to be mercilessly tackled to the ground by Cola’s icy blue eyes.

No one stopped to save him, and everyone ran faster.

Cola’s pursuit speed far exceeded Jiang Xun’s expectations, but he responded swiftly, shouting gruffly: "Cover!"

The moment his voice sounded, the Deceitful Mushroom and Red-Eyed Nightmare Mushroom stopped under their respective Beastmasters’ command, the fungus umbrella shook frantically, and pairs of scarlet eyes simultaneously emitted a dangerous gleam, suddenly releasing a sweet fragrance.

Pink mist quickly spread, attempting to hinder Cola and the other pet beasts’ pursuit speed.

"I’ll go!"

Seeing the sweet fragrance appear again, Lin first glanced at the unmoving Twin Flower Concubine and then quickly stepped forward with the Honey Mist Umbrella Spirit.

The Twin Flower Concubine had clearly had its fill, and finally, it was time for him and the Honey Mist Umbrella Spirit to take action.

But the next second, a fierce wind arose.

The source of this fierce wind was unknown; it suddenly swept in all directions, shaking the surrounding trees violently, sending dry leaves and branches flying freely, and causing clothing to flutter wildly.

The fierce wind easily dispersed the spreading light pink poisonous mist, while from all directions, it pressed towards the center, trapping the fleeing New Star Association members in place.

Despite their strenuous struggle, the harsh gale tossed them around, rendering them completely immobile.

"Tier Three Gale Hunting Dog!"

Jiang Xun abandoned struggle, his eyes bursting with sharp brilliance, staring intently at the nearest Condensing Wind Gale Hunting Dog.

Cola controlled the wind, binding everyone and a group of pet beasts in place. It raised its head and stepped forward slowly: "Awoo~"

Previously considering the emotions of the Twin Flower Concubine, it hadn’t directly whipped up a gale to disperse the sweet fragrance.

Now it was different; these guys dared to turn and flee in front of it, aren’t they just disregarding its presence?

The bright moonlight poured down, strands illuminating Cola’s body, showcasing its wild dancing light brown fur and blue eyes, as the majestic Cola marched directly forward.

Its steps were slow but steady; the breeze around it swept outward, instantly turning into a gale binding everyone and pet beasts.

At this moment, it was the gale.

Cola didn’t need to look back to imagine the shocking gazes cast upon it; its dog mouth uncontrollably curled into a grin.

Here comes another Tier Three pet beast!

Despite Cola resolving the sweet fragrance ahead, Lin’s eyes burned with intensity.

A Tier Three Twin Flower Concubine, a Tier Three Condensing Wind Gale Hunting Dog, this prosecutor’s strength was incredibly powerful!

If he could latch onto this powerful figure, he would willingly accept a promotion and pay raise!

"Boss... Boss, what should we do now?"

Bound by the piercing wind, Viper’s voice came out intermittently, pushing out his full strength to complete a sentence.

The situation seemed different from what the Boss anticipated.

The other party was completely unaffected by the sweet fragrance, but instead, a Tier Three Condensing Wind Gale Hunting Dog hindered their escape plan.

Jiang Xun, wrapped in a black robe from head to toe, looked solemn but strove to maintain composure.

The only plan now was to find a way to escape the gale and abandon some pet beasts.

If the pet beasts carried out a suicide attack, they’d surely delay the opponent’s chase.

As long as they could successfully escape, there’d be chances for them to make a comeback.

With this thought, Jiang Xun hesitated no more; his gaze sharpened, a summoning array appeared in front, and a massive figure swiftly emerged.

It was an even larger Deceitful Mushroom.

The dark purple fungus umbrella appeared exceedingly eerie in the night, its cap covered with red tumor-like protrusions, with a thick short stalk resembling a landmine, extending black mycelium network from the base.

"Mushroom!"

Once the Deceitful Mushroom appeared, dense toxic mist emanated from its body, spewing dark purple spores from its mouth, suddenly breaking the confines of the wind, continuously charging at Cola.

Luckily, Cola reacted quickly, flashing its form, evading left and right, thus avoiding being hit.

But Cola’s movements caused the fierce gale to quickly dissipate, and without hesitation, Jiang Xun shouted: "Retreat!"

He knew lingering further was courting death; letting the unworthy pet beasts help cover the retreat was the true principle.

After all, if a pet beast died, the Beastmaster would only be sluggish for a while.

"Chase!" Li Junyue’s voice almost rang out simultaneously.

A withdrawal and a chase, an intense race was about to unfold.

Cola was delayed by the Deceitful Mushroom, as several pet beasts stayed behind to cover the retreat, determined to stop them, making the scene extremely chaotic.

Chen Yuan decided to end this chaos.

He was invited and had done his utmost to allow the ninth group to earn more merit, not taking it all for himself.

But Chen Yuan wasn’t prepared to watch these guys escape.

"Go." Chen Yuan glanced sideways at Spark on his shoulder, and spoke softly.

"Chirp~"

Spark nodded gently, then raised its tiny head, gazed at the night sky, suddenly spread its wings, soaring into the sky.

Its body started to manifest golden flames, its size rapidly enlarging during flight; its long, colorful tail feathers trailed a splendid light path, and the golden flames burst gloriously, like a golden sun breaking through the pitch-dark sky, illuminating the entire scene.

"Is it... daylight?" Lin muttered, looking upward against the light, squinting reflexively at the dazzling brilliance.

A pet beast he had never seen before appeared before his eyes.

"Awooo!"

Cola’s side glance caught the sight of the Big Sister’s figure. Engulfed in intense battle, its heart was anxious, then suddenly the gale surged forward toward the Deceitful Mushroom.

All because of you, damn mushroom!!!

"Chirp!"

Spark flapped its broad wings, its delicate body generating Flame Stream, and in an instant, flew above Jiang Xun and the others, its blinding light dispelling the darkness, making them exposed with nowhere to hide.

There’s nowhere to run now.

"What..."

The blinding light seemed to penetrate the black robes, Jiang Xun felt unbearably dazzled, covering the glaring light with his hand, yet his body began shaking uncontrollably.

Turning his head, Viper and others were already overwhelmed by the terrifying pressure, collapsing with a thud to the ground.

Jiang Xun: "..."

Though still harboring thoughts of resistance, he attempted to summon a second pet beast to resist slightly, trading pet beast lives for brief escape moments.

But deep within him arose a faint notion: if he did so, this unbelievably powerful pet beast would certainly end his life in an instant.

Then, the next moment, Jiang Xun fell to his knees with thudding sounds, raising both hands high.

Viper glanced at the kneeling boss with his peripheral vision, raising his own hands higher.

For a moment, the scene fell into dead silence.
