Chapter 32: Leng Feng’s Success
The Storm Tiger looked at the weak human before it, its eyes growing sharper.
“Roar!”
It roared in fury. Although it was trapped here, not just anyone was qualified to be its Owner. This human was too weak, unacceptable.
Leng Feng felt as if he were standing in a raging storm, as if he were submerged in ice-cold water.
He told himself he couldn’t fall.
Just like three years ago, when he knew he would die, he hadn’t retreated.
He would not lose, nor would he retreat.
This Era had already entered the Era of Beast Tamers.
He had to become a Beast Tamer, and a very strong one at that. His pride would not allow him to back down.
He looked at the Storm Tiger before him. The closer he got, the stronger the shock in his heart. He felt, just as Song Tiantian had said, like he was looking for a Partner. He had fallen for the Storm Tiger at first sight. He felt that no matter how many Pet Beasts he saw, he wouldn’t have such a heart-stirring feeling.
He knew very well that as long as he could form a Contract with the Storm Tiger, his future would be bright, and his Strength would become unprecedentedly strong.
His Blood was boiling, burning.
Blood flowed from his pores. He stared directly at the Storm Tiger before him, tears of blood seeming to well up in his eyes.
He remembered his fallen Comrades, who had protected him with their lives, allowing him to survive.
For years, he had been lying at home like a useless person.
He wanted to try hard, but his Willpower couldn’t support his body to undergo high-intensity training. The more he trained, the greater the damage to his body.
He was unwilling. After repeated failures, he thought his spirit had been completely worn down.
He could only accept reality, but this time, he had a chance to start anew.
He had his pride; he was unwilling to yield and be content with mediocrity, to form a Contract with an ordinary Pet Beast.
“Sigh!”
Song Tiantian sighed and stood in front of Leng Feng. A person’s Willpower could sometimes move mountains, but sometimes, it couldn’t change too many Things.
She knew that if this continued, Leng Feng was doomed. He would be killed by the Storm Tiger’s aura, his internal organs shattered.
Song Tiantian had witnessed the Sky Crack and Dr. Bai’s powerful attacks. The Storm Tiger’s aura was nothing to her. It was also possible that because she was a Transmigrator, her Mental Power was much stronger than an Ordinary Person’s.
Song Tiantian opened Cold Fragrance Number One and said to the Storm Tiger, “This is for you from him. Whether you want it or not, this is yours. This is a tribute to a strong being.”
Song Tiantian poured Cold Fragrance Number One into the Storm Tiger’s water basin. The Storm Tiger retracted its aura and became extremely docile, drinking heartily.
After drinking Cold Fragrance Number One, the Storm Tiger’s emotions stabilized a lot, but Song Tiantian did not receive any rewards from the System. Song Tiantian had also treated some other Pet Beasts without receiving System rewards. Song Tiantian felt that she might need to rescue a very special Pet Beast to get System rewards.
Song Tiantian did not help Leng Feng up. Leng Feng was still standing, but Song Tiantian knew that Leng Feng was holding on by sheer willpower.
Song Tiantian opened her extremely foul-smelling Cold Fragrance Number Two. In fact, a foul smell was also a type of fragrance, just that the smell was more potent and special. For a special person, it might even be exceptionally liked.
She almost gagged just smelling it, but the improved version was only effective on White Lotus, not on people.
Even the Storm Tiger, upon smelling it, silently dragged its basin away from Song Tiantian and quietly crouched in a corner drinking water. It would rather die than drink such a disgusting Thing.
“Relying solely on your willpower won’t earn you the Storm Tiger’s recognition. It doesn’t want to form a Contract with the Weaker Party. This Awakening Potion can only be drunk once in a lifetime by each person. Drinking it a second time won’t have much effect. Don’t ask me how I know.
However, drinking a second bottle can still provide a slight improvement. Drink this in front of the Storm Tiger now to show it your resolve. I believe it will be moved by you.”
Leng Feng didn’t speak or hesitate. He snatched Cold Fragrance Number Two from Song Tiantian’s hand and drank it in one gulp.
The taste was simply unbearable. He felt extremely, extremely disgusted. The moment it entered his mouth, he almost vomited. He felt that even real feces wouldn’t taste this bad.
It was too disgusting.
He had never tasted anything so disgusting in his life.
But his faith, his entire Willpower, forced him to swallow it in one go. For some reason, tears uncontrollably streamed down his face.
Looking at the bottle again, he had only drunk one-third of it in this gulp. Mustering immense courage again, he took another sip.
“You must drink the entire bottle. Doctor has already conducted experiments; only by drinking the whole bottle in a short period will it be effective.”
Song Tiantian encouraged Leng Feng.
Theoretically, drinking the entire bottle would have a tremendous effect, but in reality, both she and Dr. Bai had only tasted a mouthful; they simply didn’t have the courage to take a second sip.
Leng Feng looked at Song Tiantian, then at the Storm Tiger. He had endured greater hardships and difficulties; how could this little bit of trouble defeat him?
Leng Feng forced himself to pour every last bit of dregs into his mouth and finished it.
It was an indescribable taste, a disgusting taste that disgusted the very Soul.
However, his Brain felt surprisingly much more comfortable, a sense of clarity he had never experienced before. He felt his mind had never been so comfortable.
Seeing that Leng Feng had finished the Potion, Song Tiantian persuaded the Storm Tiger, “A person’s Talent isn’t that important. Only an unyielding will of steel is the strongest. Look, his Talent has improved, and he will continue to work hard to improve his Talent later.
If you form a Contract with him now, he will buy you whatever you want to eat and drink.
He will treat you well his entire life. Would you consider him?”
The Storm Tiger moved closer to Leng Feng. It could sense that the Medicinal Power within Leng Feng had not been fully absorbed. If it formed a Contract with Leng Feng now, it should be able to absorb some of the medicinal effects.
So, it nodded at Song Tiantian.
It acknowledged Leng Feng.
Talent is important, but Willpower is also crucial. Its Owner absolutely cannot be a coward. Leng Feng’s Mental Power now met its requirements, so it was willing. If his Mental Power hadn’t met the standard, it would never have agreed.
Song Tiantian immediately began to set up the Contract ritual, arranging Energy Stones.
Leng Feng unhesitatingly cut his wrist. Song Tiantian had initially intended to say that just cutting a finger would suffice, but seeing this, she let it be.
Leng Feng felt a violent thought surge within his heart, growing hotter and hotter. His eyes gradually turned red.
