Shen Wushuang pointed out the combat flaws of almost everyone.
Except for Chen Shu and a few others who barely satisfied him, the rest were trash.
Although Shen Wushuang's words were harsh, the students took them to heart.
"Alright! That's all for today. You're free to review your cultural subjects tonight!"
Unlike other classes, the special training class considered Beast Taming as the main subject, with cultural subjects only for self-study in the evening.
Everyone left the Beast Taming Hall.
Chen Shu and the other two walked arm in arm, each grinning a devious grin.
Chen Shu was in an exceptionally good mood. Not only had he proven the Golden Slime's strength, but he had also acquired a unique skill.
The reward for first place would definitely not be bad.
As the hope of Nanjiang Second High School, the school would invest heavily in cultivating the special training class.
Xie Sunan asked, "Chen Pi, you've been at the school for ages. Don't you know any good places to eat around here?"
Both of them were new to Second High School and had no idea about the school's surroundings.
Chen Shu said heartily, "Of course there are distinctive eateries! Wait a moment, I'll treat you!"
With that, he rushed towards the restroom.
Xie Sunan and the other were left waiting, their eyes filled with question.
After a while, Xie Sunan asked, "Xiao Xing, he's not going to get us some local specialties, is he?"
Xu Xingxing trembled slightly, a hint of fear in his voice. "If he were a normal person, he'd definitely be going to the restroom. But with Chen Pi, I'm not so sure."
Chen Shu wasn't going to the restroom to get specialties; he wasn't that unconventional.
He entered a restroom stall and took out the exclusive skill book the system had just rewarded him with.
Dream Killer: Upon activation, the Slime can battle while in a sleeping state and will not awaken from any negative status effects for a certain duration!
Chen Shu's expression lit up, and he patted the skill book. The Slime immediately mastered an exclusive active skill.
Although its effect seemed ordinary, Chen Shu could grasp its true value.
The first benefit stemmed from the Slime's two innate talents: Sleepiness (increases defense slightly while sleeping) and Thick Armor (passively enhances defense, tripling its effect while sleeping).
Paired with Dream Killer, the Slime's defense would skyrocket.
The second benefit was not waking up from the sleeping state, meaning the Slime would fear no pain or fear during battle.
If it could master sleep-related talents in the future, its strength would further improve.
Chen Shu left the restroom with a smug grin, chuckling all the way.
He was already imagining the scene of the Slime snoring and charging madly.
"Something's wrong! That grin is not right!"
Seeing Chen Shu's smile, Xie Sunan instinctively took a step back.
Especially seeing Chen Shu with his hands behind his back, he couldn't help but wonder if he was holding specialties.
Xu Xingxing was equally vigilant, scanning Chen Shu up and down.
"Has he gone mad?"
Chen Shu's mouth twitched. Why were their gazes like they were looking at a mentally ill person?
Xie Sunan cautiously asked, "Do you have anything on your hands?"
"No, why?"
Chen Shu asked, confused, spreading his hands open.
Seeing this, the two breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're acting so strangely. Let's go, I'll take you to eat some high-end specialties!"
Xie Sunan and Xu Xingxing's expressions jolted. "High-end?"
Ten minutes later, the three arrived at a snack street near the school.
"This is what you call high-end?"
Looking at the shabby Malatang stall before them, the two fell into a long silence.
"What do you guys know? High-end dining only requires the most rustic decor!"
Chen Shu skillfully loaded various meats and vegetables, playing on his phone while waiting for the food.
Xie Sunan's eyes darted around, and he suddenly spotted someone at the next stall.
He said softly, "Hey, look at that guy. It's a hot day, and he's wearing a baseball cap, a cotton jacket, and it's even pink."
"I bet that person is either sick or a fugitive. Do you believe me?"
Xu Xingxing shook his head. "I don't believe it!"
Chen Shu said, "Are fugitives stupid? Wearing such flashy clothes is clearly exposing themselves. Maybe he's just doing performance art."
"How can I fly out of this world of flowers?"
Chen Shu's phone suddenly rang.
"Wang Gan?"
He raised an eyebrow and answered the call.
"Hello, Uncle Wang?"
"Little Chen, we've caught one of the two fugitives you mentioned yesterday. The other is still at large, so you'd better be careful."
Chen Shu said, "That was fast."
He hadn't expected that after reporting the crime yesterday, they would catch someone today.
"Uncle Wang, don't worry. Only one is left. If he dares to find me, I'll catch him securely!"
"Mm, be careful yourself. He should have fled near your school."
Chen Shu nodded and suddenly looked up at the person wearing the pink cotton jacket.
Seeing the familiar back, he felt a suspicion.
Chen Shu said softly, "Xiao Xing, sneak over and take a picture of that person!"
"Chen Pi, are you crazy? Taking pictures of a pervert?!"
Although he said that, Xu Xingxing still got up, a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"I wonder who the pervert is."
Xu Xingxing nonchalantly walked to the man's opposite side, pretending to be a diner and playing on his phone.
At that moment, he pressed the camera button!
Click!
The dazzling flash went off, and the situation became rather awkward.
Chen Shu and Xie Sunan's eyes widened. "Is this what you call sneaking a photo?"
"Are you crazy?!"
The man frowned and yelled, but there was no other extreme reaction.
Xu Xingxing chuckled dryly and returned to Chen Shu's side, taking out his phone.
"Holy crap! It's really that bald guy!"
Chen Shu's eyes widened as he instantly recognized the bald criminal who had attacked him yesterday.
"Shh!" Chen Shu made a shushing gesture and covered his face.
Xie Sunan, not understanding, asked, "What? Do you need to go to the restroom?"
"That person is suspicious."
Chen Shu said in a low voice, covering his face with his hand.
Following that, options appeared before him.
[Option 1: Shout at the other party: Villain! Meet your end! Reward: Moderate Beast Taming Power]
[Option 2: Walk up and persuade the other party to surrender with your eloquent tongue! Reward: Slime's Obedience +5]
[Option 3: Track the criminal and act after observing the situation! Reward: Slime's Size +1%]
Chen Shu frowned slightly. The rewards for the three options were not very good, and more importantly, the first two were too dangerous.
This was a snack street. Once the other party was provoked, ordinary people would definitely be caught in the crossfire.
The second option was even more absurd. It seemed he could only wait and see.
The three of them ate their Malatang in silence, observing the man.
Half an hour later, the man left the stall and walked towards the street, getting into a black car.
Chen Shu and the other two sneakily hailed a taxi.
"Driver! Follow that car!"
The taxi driver's expression instantly perked up, excitement in his eyes, and he said, "No problem!"
He stepped on the accelerator, and the taxi's speed increased dramatically.
"Slow down! Driver, slow down!"
Xie Sunan swayed back and forth. "Are you driving a race car?"
Ten minutes later, the black car ahead stopped.
Chen Shu and the other two paid and got out. The taxi driver pouted, thinking about how he had gotten so excited for just a traffic light.
