Chapter 40 – Little abacus, take the initiative


Shang Lingkong didn’t want to reveal this information because it was simply unbelievable.

A Zombie Spiritual Pet could actually achieve this.

Shang Lingkong found it hard to believe.

However, there was still the second phase of the assessment. The truth would soon be revealed.

But before that, Shang Lingkong felt it necessary to take a closer look and confirm whether Ye Ling had falsely reported his spiritual pet.

To verify this, Shang Lingkong summoned his subordinate again and instructed him to find Ye Ling’s class teacher to confirm Ye Ling’s situation.

As for Huo Ling and the other three, they had returned to their seats, each lost in thought.

They had all seen the information earlier, which stated that Ye Ling’s spiritual pet was a Zombie Spiritual Pet.

But how could they not know what a Zombie Spiritual Pet looked like?

The spiritual pet Ye Ling summoned earlier was vastly different from a zombie.

“Do you think… his zombie might have evolved?” Huo Ling pondered for a long time and felt that this was the only explanation that could account for why Ye Ling’s Zombie Spiritual Pet was so different.

“This…”

“Is that possible?”

The other three exchanged puzzled glances.

They had never encountered such a situation before.

For now, they couldn’t be sure.

Seeing Shang Lingkong summon his subordinate and arrange for something to be done, Huo Ling could easily guess that it had a lot to do with Ye Ling.

With a slight smile, Huo Ling said softly, “No need to rush. Our lord knows nothing about this either.”

“Didn’t you see him sending someone to investigate? I think we’ll have news soon.”

“Moreover, there’s still the second phase of the assessment. By then, whether Ye Ling’s spiritual pet is a zombie will be easily determined.”

Since Ye Ling was there and wouldn’t run away, Huo Ling wasn’t in a hurry.

After all, if Ye Ling was participating in the assessment, he definitely wanted to join the Spirit Tamer Academy.

As long as his goal was the Spirit Tamer Academy, everything would be fine.

Hearing this, the other three nodded in agreement.

However, the representatives in the back were also a bit noisy.

Due to Huo Ling’s earlier exclamation, although most of the representatives didn’t know whose Zombie Spiritual Pet it was, it didn’t stop them from discussing it.

In the Secret Realm, not long after Ye Ling left, a pitch-black figure appeared beside the Steel-winged Bird.

From a distance, it looked like a wolf.

This pitch-black wolf came to the Steel-winged Bird’s side and sniffed it deeply a few times.

Slowly raising its head, its ghostly green eyes fixed on the direction where Ye Ling had left.

Then, the black wolf turned and ran into the forest without hesitation.

Due to the faster flow of time in the Secret Realm compared to the outside world, three days here would only be about half a day outside.

Back in the cave halfway up the mountain, Ye Ling happily enjoyed his lunch, which was roasted Steel-winged Bird neck meat, and began to ponder what to do for the next three days.

Just waiting here to pass the time wasn’t impossible.

Surviving for three days wasn’t a big problem for Ye Ling.

However, it was rare to have such an opportunity to enter the Secret Realm.

Who knew when he would get another chance to enter the Secret Realm?

But one thing was certain: it wouldn’t be anytime soon.

Seizing this opportunity could earn him a great reward.

Moreover, with his current strength, he could basically roam freely in this Secret Realm.

Weighing the pros and cons, Ye Ling chose to take the initiative.

With Blood Phantom by his side, Ye Ling began his hunting journey in the Secret Realm.

First, Ye Ling started clearing the area around the mountain.

This place was near the mountain, and below the mountain was a forest.

It was a very good place to live, and many demons liked to live in such places.

Sure enough, after descending the mountain and walking around the surrounding area, he soon encountered the first wave of demons.

Yes, it was a wave, not a single one.

Spiked Pigs, very low-level demons, generally only reached First Rank Level Three or Four when fully grown.

They looked much like real pigs, but unlike common pigs, Spiked Pigs had long spikes on their backs.

The spikes on the backs of Spiked Pigs were very sharp. Although they weren’t poisonous, they could be launched.

If one wasn’t careful, even a Spirit Tamer could be pierced by the spikes of a Spiked Pig.

This wave of Spiked Pigs was quite large, with about a dozen of them.

Although they didn’t provide much experience, even a small amount was still valuable, and Ye Ling didn’t mind at all.

Ye Ling understood the principle of accumulating small amounts to make a lot.

It wasn’t realistic to always aim for higher-level demons.

No matter where you were, higher-level demons were always fewer in number.

The higher the level of the demon, the closer it was to the top of the food chain, and the fewer there were.

“Blood Phantom! Take them down!”

With a slight wave of his hand, the Blood Phantom standing beside Ye Ling instantly transformed into a blood-red shadow.
