Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Jealousy Makes Qian 7’s True Face Distort
The reporter and Tang Yunde had left, leaving the room unbothered. A few people relaxedly chatted away; Zhang Feng and Liang Yuting, who often trained Flame Dogs at the Magic Beast Storage Room, were already familiar with Uncle Sun and Uncle Li, making the conversation smooth.
It wasn’t until noon that Uncle Sun and Uncle Li bid farewell.
"How’s your training going?" Qian Qi began checking the assignments she’s left for Zhang Feng and Liang Yuting, "Has the Flame Dog learned to obey commands?"
"More or less." Zhang Feng nodded, glancing at Sikong Wang, seeming to want to say something to Qian Qi, but he kept his mouth shut.
Sikong Wang looked at him before standing up from his chair, "I’m going out to buy some food, you guys continue talking."
After Sikong Wang left, Qian Qi looked at Zhang Feng, puzzled, "What’s up? Is there a problem?"
"Just the other day, Xiao Zhang suddenly released something towards me. It looked like a small array, I don’t know what it was." Xiao Zhang was the name Zhang Feng gave to the Flame Dog he trained, "After that, Xiao Zhang was listless for several days, not motivated to train."
Liang Yuting chimed in, "I received it too, it looks like a contract pattern but different."
Qian Qi: ...
Qian Qi: ???
"What the heck?" Qian Qi screeched, rolling off the bed, "Did they initiate a contract with you guys?"
She had been cleaning, brushing, and shoveling poop for Ah Tu, nearly offering her heart, yet she hadn’t gained the trust nor the contract of that scumbag dog!
But you guys trained Flame Dogs for two months and just got "contracted"?
Why, was she licking all the way to end up with nothing?
"Initiate contract?" Zhang Feng was unfamiliar with the term, "What does it mean?"
"Magic Beasts can initiate a contract with humans first." Qian Qi explained, "Although the probability is extremely low, almost unheard of?"
Though as far as she knew, there had never been a precedent of "active contract," but Qian Qi felt it wasn’t entirely impossible.
After all, Silver initiated a contract with her after production, and she didn’t believe humans’ cunning couldn’t invent ways to deceive a Magic Beast’s affection and trust.
She didn’t delve deeper into these nuances, but still couldn’t comprehend why Zhang Feng and Liang Yuting got contracted so quickly!
"But we’re just ordinary people..." Zhang Feng puzzled, "It’s impossible for them to contract us."
Qian Qi glanced at Zhang Feng with a heartache, "It’s possible to contract."
Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"
"Ordinary people can also contract Magic Beasts; you just didn’t know," after feeling heartache, Qian Qi’s eyes suddenly became stern. She stared at Zhang Feng and Liang Yuting, saying seriously, "But this news can’t be leaked."
She felt the time was not yet right.
Ordinary people’s bodies are generally so weak, unlike Zhang Feng and Liang Yuting, who are protected and cared for by two uncles and D-level Defense Armor. If an ordinary person insisted on contacting a Magic Beast, it would be extremely dangerous.
It would not be too late to release this news when her Frenzy Medicine and Defense Fruit became popular.
"I can help you secretly contract the Contract Dog, but you can’t brag about it everywhere; only the three of us—oh no..." Qian Qi looked down at Xiao Min, "only the four of us know."
Zhang Feng and Liang Yuting also glanced at Xiao Min, not speaking, eyes instinctively moving along with Qian Qi.
When they came to realize, they were dumbfounded, "We can contract Magic Beasts?"
This, how is this possible?
This is simply unheard of! Even many students with Beast Taming Talent haven’t contracted a Magic Beast, and they, two ordinary people, how could they contract a Magic Beast?
"You can!" Qian Qi said through gritted teeth, jealousy completely overwhelming her face, "Don’t make me repeat for the third time!!!"
If she repeated again, she would start cursing!!!
Zhang Feng and Liang Yuting immediately shut their mouths.
After a while, Zhang Feng couldn’t help but ask, "Qian Qi, since you’re so incredible, have you already contracted a Magic Beast?"
An instant pillow hit him, accompanied by Qian Qi’s sad and angry roar, "Get out——!"

Coverage about Qian Qi quickly climbed the trending searches, the hottest one being about Qian Qi discussing potion sales with Tang Yunde.
Qian Qi scrolled through, finding all kinds of comments.
Some praised today’s students for their capabilities, some marveled at her being so young to discuss business with Tang Yunde, while others accused her of seeking attention, saying she was hyping with Tang Yunde.
Others, with a sense of righteousness, claimed if they discovered Magic Potions, they’d share it freely for the benefit of society instead of greedily seeking money.
Most absurdly, some even suggested she had an affair with Li Hongsheng. Otherwise, how could a student develop something so impressive?
[How come you’re addicted to reading those, aren’t you angry?] The system observed these comments, cautiously watching Qian Qi, fearing she might jump out of the hospital in distress.
"Why be angry?"
Qian Qi was not angry; in their last life, they saw many humans with varied moral standards; these non-physically harmful words couldn’t hurt her at all.
"These people can’t impede me from making money." Qian Qi sneered disdainfully, "While they’re crawling and scraping through life in the gutter, I’m already backed by the most badass system in the universe, lying in piles of gold and silver, counting money until my hands go numb!"
This was the mindset of someone with only money and career in their mind!
Hearing themselves being praised again, the system couldn’t help but lightly [cough].
[Since you’re so stable, there’s something I need to tell you.]
"Oh?" Qian Qi pricked up her ears, "What’s the matter? Tell me."
[... Tell your sister, seriously, do you know the Yanjiao Dungeon was cleared because of you?]
Qian Qi’s eyes glimmered, "So how did I clear it?"
[That’s not important; the important thing is you contracted a Magic Beast inside...]
Qian Qi: ...
Qian Qi: ???
Qian Qi opened her mouth wide, pointing at herself in shock, "Me? Contracted a Magic Beast? Seriously? D-level?"
How was this possible?
Magic Beasts are notoriously hard to contract! It’s like she didn’t stay long in the Yanjiao Dungeon, right? How could a Magic Beast fall head over heels for her, needing her alone?
"Did I have incredible luck and encounter a love-struck brain?" Qian Qi couldn’t help but slap her palm, suddenly understanding.
System: ???
What nonsense was she blabbering?
"So what did I contract?" Qian Qi quickly accepted the reality; rubbing her little hands, she was filled with anticipation for her unseen beastly lover. "Is it a mighty lion-shaped beast, a wind-speed leopard-shaped beauty, or perhaps a cute and tiny bunny adorable beast?"
[It’s crow-shaped.]
Qian Qi: ...
Qian Qi: ???
[A slightly fierce, swift, but tiny timid beast.]
Qian Qi: ...
Qian Qi opened Light Brain, starting to search about how to annul a contract.
System: ...
Hey, that’s a bit excessive, isn’t it? Forgetting so soon and abandoning just like that?
In their side, people like this are called "scumbag masters"!
