Boom!
After being lifted above the bear's head and swung around a few times, the black bear, which was already a little dizzy, was thrown away by the former and landed heavily on the ground.
The black bear struggled to stand up.
Unfortunately, it didn't have a strong defense like the winter bear cub.
With this fall, it was staggering in confusion.
Of course, it had not truly lost its combat ability yet.
Ling Haoyang glanced at the winter bear cub not far away and silently walked to his black bear's side.
Soul power appeared in his hand, and he kept the black bear back into his soul domain.
He knew that there was no need to continue this battle after the winter bear cub showed such strength.
His black bear's only advantage in strength was gone.
"You've won," Even though he had lost, Ling Haoyang wasn't the least bit dejected or angry. Instead, he looked at Ji An with a calm expression.
Such an act, in addition to the blackgold pill he had given him previously, made Ji An have a slightly good impression of him.
"Can you tell me why your winter bear is so strong?" Ling Haoyang was a little hesitant, but in the end, he still asked the question that he couldn't figure out no matter how much he thought about it.
Seeing that Ji An didn't reply, Ling Haoyang said apologetically, "I was being rude. Everyone has their secrets. If you don't want to tell me, then just pretend I never asked. "
Ji An pondered for a moment, then said, "It's not a secret. I've been trying to train my winter bear cub to master Monstrous Strength before this. I didn't expect that in this battle with your black bear, it would be suppressed by the black bear's strength and forced to learn the skill in advance. "
Ling Haoyang, "..."
Ji An's words left Ling Haoyang completely speechless.
Even among the advanced Extraordinary races, the black bear had quite a few racial skills, a total of five.
Among its intermediate racial skills, there was Monstrous Strength!
He didn't expect that the black bear, which had Monstrous Strength as a racial skill, had yet to master this skill. On the contrary, a winter bear that had nothing to do with Monstrous Strength had mastered it.
Ling Haoyang didn't doubt Ji An's claim that the winter bear had mastered Monstrous Strength.
Most skills had attributes, such as the ice-type skills Hard Ice and the Ice-breaking Palm.
However, there were also some skills that did not have any attributes and were only used to gather energy. These skills were usually called general attribute skills.
Monstrous Strength, as well as Wrestle and Throw that the black bear had just used, were all of this type.
The characteristic of general attribute skills was that, in theory, any race with any attribute had the possibility of acquiring mastery.
However, not only had a monster bear mastered all its racial skills but also acquired the skill Monstrous Strength. Its talent was indeed surprising.
Seeing that Ling Haoyang was speechless, Ji An broke the silence, "This is all thanks to your black bear."
Ling Haoyang, "..."
"Shuangyue, give him the twenty-five thousand Yuan bet. I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first," Ling Haoyang left the dueling ground without looking back.
Ji An scratched his head, "I think I said something wrong."
Seeing Ji An's serious expression, Ling Shuangyue burst out laughing, "No, you're not wrong."
"Here's twenty-five thousand," She took out a stack of money from her expensive-looking handbag.
"Thank you," Ji An naturally wouldn't be courteous at a time like this.
Ling Shuangyue sighed, "It's a pity that your winter bear cub is too strong. It's not suitable to be my mushroom cat's training partner. After my mushroom cat improves, I will ask you to be my sparring partner. Don't reject me then."
Even though he had just earned twenty-five thousand, it was a one-time deal. Hearing that the long-term deal was over, he felt a little regretful, "Alright, call me anytime."
Then, he chatted with Ling Shuangyue for a while.
The two exchanged contact numbers and left the Beastmaster Association.
Ji An took the bus to Route 11, while Ling Shuangyue, on the other hand, got into a car that was parked outside the Beastmaster Association.
A car was a product of the old era. Being able to afford it in the new era undoubtedly represented status and wealth.
In the car, Ling Shuangyue waved at Ji An.
The limo slowly drove away.
Right at this moment, a fiery-red handsome figure leaped out from the Beastmaster Association.
It sped down the road and quickly overtook Ling Shuangyue's car. Its speed made it look very cool.
It was a giant tiger that was the color of red flames. It was five to six meters long and nearly two meters tall.
It was an advanced Extraordinary familiar that had reached the limits of its race, the flame tiger.
A beastmaster capable of controlling such a flame tiger was undoubtedly a veteran expert among the Transcendent beastmasters.
He and the winter bear cub were still far from this level.
Ji An's face was full of envy, "Winter bear cub, grow up quickly. Even if I can't afford a car, can't I be a bear rider?"
But at this time, the winter bear cub had already fallen into a deep sleep and couldn't respond to Ji An's lamentations.
It needed to digest the undigested medicinal power of the blackgold pill in time.
Ji An, who yearned to split a single cent into two, naturally couldn't waste the remaining medicinal effects of the blackgold pill.
The winter bear cub, who had just broken through in battle and awakened Monstrous Strength, naturally consumed a lot of energy and needed to replenish it as well.
Ji An didn't stay outside.
Instead, he returned home.
This was to ensure that the winter bear cub could successfully digest the results of this trip.
After returning home, it was already close to evening.
Ji An, whose stomach was already rumbling with hunger, didn't start cooking.
Instead, he went to the study, opened his notebook, and began to record today's battle.
Today's battle had undoubtedly exposed many problems.
The winter bear cub didn't have enough combat experience. At the same time, he didn't have enough experience in commanding his familiar and lacked battle tactics.
These would all be fatal weaknesses in actual combat in the future.
A real battle would not be as peaceful as duels in arenas.
Many times, it would be a life and death battle.
The loser would be dead!
Even young masters like Ling Haoyang, who had only just become a beastmaster like him, had much more experience in fighting than him.
Not to mention those experienced, veteran beastmasters outside.
In his short conversation with Ling Shuangyue, Ji An also found out some things about her and Ling Haoyang.
They were indeed brother and sister, twins at that.
Both of them had just turned 18 and had just awakened their soul power.
However, unlike himself, who had awakened through the soul awakening potion, the two siblings were geniuses with soul talent. They had awakened their soul power naturally through meditation.
It hadn't even been a month since the two of them awakened their soul and subdued their first familiars, becoming beastmasters.
However, even Ling Haoyang, who had only become a beastmaster less than a month ago, had displayed quality and experience that was far beyond his.
Ji An noted down all the flaws and shortcomings he had discovered during the battle, no matter how big or small, and began to think hard about how to solve them.
Unknowingly, the sky darkened.
When he was almost done with his notes, the moon was hanging high in the sky.
Only then did Ji An put down his pen and paper and start cooking to comfort his stomach.
For the winter bear cub, an entire night of Hibernation was enough for it to digest the blackgold pill.
The next morning, the first thing Ji An did after waking up was to rush over to check on the winter bear cub's progress after yesterday's battle, as well as the effects of the blackgold pill and a meal of sweetgrass milk.
"Not bad! As expected of a tonic worth 10000 Yuan!" Looking at the winter bear cub's skyrocketed stats, Ji An finally couldn't hold it in any longer, and a smile appeared on his face.
