The King of Beast Trainers

60  Chapter 51 Mr. Husky's Background_1

In the Demon Cat Forest Secret Realm.

Lu Ran and Mr. Husky still had no idea about the situation outside.

However, Lu Ran and Mr. Husky had already anticipated that they must have reclaimed their spot on the Divine Pet List!

If they couldn't make it to the top of the Divine Pet List, Lu Ran supported Mr. Husky in tearing the list apart later.

"Not only are the resources trash, but the crystal coins given are indeed very few."

Lu Ran sighed and secured his rewards.

Perfect clearance was just enough to break even on the entry fee... It's not easy.

"No return for now."

Lu Ran immediately made a choice.

After clearing the Secret Realm, contestants could choose to stay until the maximum time limit was reached.

"Mr. Husky, let's go gather more resources."

Lu Ran called out to Mr. Husky.

Since there was still plenty of time, Lu Ran felt that they could still squeeze something more out of this Secret Realm.

"Woof~" Mr. Husky's tail perked up, it wanted to eat Wooden Scale Fruits!

"Eat, I'll go pick them for you."

Besides wanting to extract more resources, Lu Ran had another concern on his mind.

That was about the tent he encountered in the Novice Secret Realm.

He had thought there would be some hidden task within the Secret Realm, but thus far, there was still no follow-up whatsoever.

Now that they were untouchable within the Demon Cat Forest, it was worth a thorough search to see if there truly were no clues left.

...

A few hours later.

In the exclusive room, the figures of Lu Ran and Mr. Husky appeared.

On Lu Ran's face was an expression of fatigue, and as for Mr. Husky, it was originally quite tired as well, but it recovered quickly and soon looked energetic again.

Lu Ran's physical strength was impressive, and a big reason for that was due to being walked by Mr. Husky.

Before it evolved into the extraordinary, it already had exceptionally vigorous energy, and walking it was absolutely a skill.

"What a pity."

After a thorough investigation, Lu Ran felt a bit regretful; it seems he was overthinking it after all. The SSS class truly just meant a perfect clearance.

He and Mr. Husky had nearly turned the Secret Realm inside out, and still had not triggered any hidden tasks.

"I don't believe it." Lu Ran was stubborn and not yet disheartened, thinking it might be because the map of the Demon Cat Forest was of a too low level.

Perhaps, once he enters other Secret Realms, a bigger map, they would be able to embark on the next step of exploration.

Secret Realms existed within each other; for example, the Beginner Secret Realm he could currently challenge might just be included in the larger map of a Secret Realm that only advanced Beast Trainers could challenge.

All Secret Realms are partial projections from another world, naturally overlapping in places.

"Woof woof woof!!!" Compared to Lu Ran, Mr. Husky couldn't care less about hidden tasks. Upon emerging, it looked at Lu Ran expectantly, inquiring what rank it held on the Divine Pet List now...

Last time it was tenth, this time it surely couldn't still be tenth.

"Let me see..." Lu Ran didn't need to go to the Beast Training Plaza to check, he simply opened his contact list.

Sure enough, the few friends he had were once again bombarding him with private messages.

Wave's Little White Dragon: [Holy cow! You're my bro, man.]

Little White Dragon was shocked. Lu Ran had just been busy with all the stuff in Jinling, how did he manage to reach first on the Divine Pet List so suddenly, what happened? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lu Ran's growth speed was terrifying.

Pig Raiser: [Ah...]

Windy Feather: [Boss! I was blind before and didn't recognize your greatness! Can I cling to your coattails? Are you in need of a girlfriend? We just recruited a lot of single newbies at our shop, and I can introduce you to them!]

This time, even Xiao Ling from the Neko Maid Cafe couldn't resist sending a message to Lu Ran.

Lu Ran chuckled and said to Doggo, "First place, we've got it!"

Mr. Husky snorted disdainfully. The Divine Pet List? That's all?

It thought the list was utterly unchallenging.

"But I feel you won't stay on top for long. Once there's a Pet Beast on the list that reaches Level 10, fuses an Attribute, or awakens a new one, it might overtake you."

Mr. Husky: ?

"Arf?"

"Besides, the Divine Pet List is just a potential list based on comprehensive judgement of combat performance. Although to some extent it does represent strength, it doesn't mean that the one at the top is the strongest on the list. Don't get ahead of yourself," Lu Ran cautioned Doggo.

Xiao Ling threw away the broom and hurried over to Lu Ran, her expression flushed, and whispered, "So impressive! First place! I would never have guessed."

23:26

"Woof!"

Mr. Husky put on a sagacious expression, not caring about the rankings – for now, he was number one, and no one should try to suppress him.

"Yes, yes, yes, you keep that spot! With more than half a month until the list is finalized, if you want to be number one at that time, we also need to hurry to Level 10 and fuse the Attribute to be stable."

"I wonder if there's enough time..." Lu Ran mused, "Let's go. To the Neko Maid Cafe to purchase information on the Secret Realm."

"Let's see if there's a Secret Realm that can quickly raise your Growth Level."

...

Infinite City's third district, Neko Maid Cafe.

Lu Ran came to this place once again.

Manager Ying had said she would collect the prize money on Lu Ran's behalf and then transfer it to him at this location.

But as Lu Ran entered, aside from a few young Cat Ear Maids chatting and laughing, he saw no sign of Manager Ying.

"Ask Xiao Ling..." Upon entering, Lu Ran was naturally seen by the Cat Ear Maids in the shop.

"Welcome~~~" Most of the people here did not recognize Lu Ran and just treated him like a normal customer with warm hospitality.

Luckily, Xiao Ling was in the shop. When she noticed Lu Ran, she immediately widened her eyes in surprise.

"No way, you really came!" She had just chatted privately as a formality, and now Lu Ran had actually come to pick up a girlfriend?

"Xiao Ling knows you? Then you can take care of him," noticing that Xiao Ling seemed to know Lu Ran, the other maids left him in her care.

Xiao Ling threw away the broom and hurried over to Lu Ran, her expression flushed, and whispered, "So impressive! First place! I would never have guessed."

"Forget it, I'm a woman of my word, I'll secretly tell you about the maids here who don't have boyfriends... This one's on the house!"
