"You'll definitely get screwed by the Imperial Dragon Guard sooner or later!"
Qin Tian shot him a glare and leaped up, forcefully landing on Chen Shu's Slime.
The others followed suit, their eyes gleaming with hunger.
For a moment, the large basin in the middle, filled with dishes, began to wobble precariously.
"Damn it, be careful!"
Chen Shu quickly had Little Yellow unleash Giantization, its body instantly expanding twelvefold!
"Hmm?"
Qin Tian was slightly taken aback as he looked at the Slime below.
"When did your poop monster get so big?"
Chen Shu's Little Yellow had consumed another True Treasure of Size and naturally improved, now nearing one hundred and forty meters. It was indeed incredibly imposing.
"It was always this big!"
Chen Shu pouted and pulled out a large handful of chopsticks.
The others took them and surrounded the stir-fried pork with green peppers, their mouths watering.
"Everyone be careful."
Qin Tian quickly reminded them, "If anything falls, it'll be a disaster."
"Principal, we've already secured our items."
The group understood the precautions of high-altitude flight and wouldn't make such a rookie mistake.
Liu Feng picked up a piece of meat, his expression full of joy, and said,
"Still, be cautious. What if the oil drips down, causing accidental injuries?"
"???"
Everyone turned to look at him, their eyes filled with a hint of strangeness.
"Why are you all looking at me?"
Liu Feng blinked in surprise, then stated matter-of-factly,
"We're thousands of meters in the sky. Even a single drop of liquid, with the added speed, won't have negligible destructive power."
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions became even more peculiar.
Chen Shu spoke calmly,
"Teacher, that... haven't you ever been rained on..."
"???"
Liu Feng choked, his eyes widening instantly.
"This is boring, let's eat!"
"..."
The group gathered together and began to devour the food.
Having spent so much time with Chen Shu, they had completely shed their demeanor of powerhouses and geniuses.
Judging by their eating habits, no one would doubt they were a gang of ruffians...
Little Yellow flew slowly, not even using its skills.
With the world competition still half a month away, there was no need to rush.
Half an hour later,
The group rubbed their bellies, their faces filled with contented smiles.
To be honest, traveling with ruffians was indeed a pleasant experience.
Of course, that was assuming they didn't cause trouble...
"Chen Pi, you're a national idol now!"
Liu Feng stretched, then lay down on the edge of Little Yellow, gazing down at the city below.
With his Golden-tier eyesight, he could barely make out the various banners below, all sent to see Chen Shu off.
"Maybe I should debut as a celebrity in the future."
Chen Shu stroked his chin, a thought crossing his mind.
Liu Feng pouted and said, "Give it up. Can you sing and dance?"
"No, but I can perform unassisted nuclear bomb throws for everyone!"
Chen Shu shrugged and said, "I'm sure to gain a large fan base!"
"Just shut up!"
Liu Feng shot him a glare. The guy was getting addicted to throwing nuclear bombs.
...
Time flew by as the group slowly left the Chinese border.
"Alright! Chen Pi, recall your Contracted Spirit!"
Qin Tian stood up and summoned his own Contracted Spirit.
"Why?"
Chen Shu looked puzzled and said, "With fifteen days, even Little Yellow flying slowly can reach Origin Island."
"If there's danger, your Contracted Spirit might not be able to hold them off!"
Qin Tian shook his head and said, "This journey might not be peaceful."
This was the main reason they hadn't taken a plane.
If a crisis occurred, it would affect the others, and no one could guarantee zero casualties.
"Fine."
Chen Shu nodded and recalled his Contracted Spirit.
Although Little Yellow's defense was astonishing, even a Golden-tier Beast Tamer might not be able to instantly kill it. However, if a King-tier appeared, he still wouldn't be able to withstand it.
The group boarded the back of the red bird beneath Qin Tian's feet.
Concurrently, he summoned an Earth elemental spirit, releasing a light yellow shield to protect everyone.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
The red bird flapped its wings and sped away into the distance.
Although it possessed the bloodline of a Chongming Bird and its main ability was control, its speed was still not to be underestimated, far exceeding that of a Golden-tier Contracted Spirit.
"We are expected to reach Origin Island by tomorrow, you can all rest for a while!"
Qin Tian looked at Chen Shu and the others, saying, "The three of us are more than enough."
The group nodded, their hearts instantly relaxing.
One King-tier and two Golden-tiers were already a formidable lineup, capable of handling most crises.
"Principal Qin, aren't you being a bit too sensitive?"
Chen Shu shrugged and said, "We don't really have any enemies."
"No enemies?"
Qin Tian turned to look at him and chuckled.
"Let me put it this way, my enemies aren't as numerous as yours, kid!"
As a King-tier Beast Tamer, he had been active for many years but hadn't even managed to offend all three major criminal organizations.
"..."
Chen Shu said, "Those people wouldn't cross the ocean just to kill me, would they?"
The moment his words fell, a 'swoosh' sound was heard!
"Not good!"
Qin Tian's expression stiffened, and the Earth elemental spirit beside him instantly surged forward, blocking in front of Chen Shu!
Bang!
A specially made armor-piercing round had penetrated the yellow protective shield and struck its body, but it caused no damage.
"Dark Group?!"
Chen Shu's expression changed, and he quickly looked around, but the red light effect from the system was gone.
He hadn't sensed any killing intent, so it must have been the Dark Group that acted.
"Seeking death!"
Qin Tian summoned three more King-tier Contracted Spirits.
A reconnaissance skill was unleashed, instantly locking onto a reef about a kilometer away.
A man in black was seen holding a sniper rifle, his gaze chillingly fixed on Chen Shu and the others.
He didn't speak but mouthed a sentence:
"I'll take your life..."
Boom—
In an instant, a rocket launcher instantly struck, obliterating the reef...
In fact, the reason he dared to be so presumptuous was the spatial portal beside him.
However, he hadn't expected Chen Shu's counterattack to be so swift.
He was merely an operative sent by the Night Organization to probe, no wonder he was treated as cannon fodder; he was simply too young...
"You attacked me and then you have the audacity to show off?"
Chen Shu pouted and muttered to himself, "I barely touched you, and you couldn't handle it?"
