Cultivation Pet Shop

The young masters couldn't understand what had just happened.

As far as they could tell, Lin Fan had just sent out a casual punch. No matter how they looked at it, it shouldn't have sent the tiger flying like this.

The lead young master quickly recovered from his daze and ran over to his tiger's side shouting, "Ah Hu, are you alright?"

But even after he shouted this, the tiger just laid there on the ground…

It was almost as if it was dead…

All of the young masters started to feel that something was off…Almost as if they had made some kind of mistake.

The lead young master saw that his tiger wasn't moving at all and immediately turned to point his finger at Lin Fan as he shouted, "What have you done to my Ah Hu? Don't think that you'll be able to get away with this."

But that finger started trembling when he saw Lin Fan looking at him with his raised fist.

The scene of his tiger being sent flying with a casual punch was still fresh on his mind, so he couldn't help stumbling back as he said in a shaky voice, "You…What are you…planning on doing?"

The other young masters also couldn't help taking a step back at the same time. They also secretly let out a sigh of relief that they had chosen this person as their representative.

If it was them facing Lin Fan now…

Lin Fan just said with a smile, "I find that the best way to pacify fierce pets like this is just to use a bit of force."

All of the young masters couldn't help trembling when they heard this.

The lead young master quickly overcame his fear and said in a voice filled with rage, "A bit of force? You call that a bit…"

Before he could finish the tiger suddenly stood up.

All of the young masters turned to look at the tiger in shock.

But the one that was the most affected was the lead young master. Seeing his tiger stand up, he said in an emotional and relieved voice, "Ah Hu, you're…"

It was too bad that the tiger didn't even give him a chance to feel emotional as it charged right past him, charging at Lin Fan.

The young masters thought that the tiger was going to take revenge for being caught off guard by Lin Fan. They were all watching with expectant eyes, waiting to see the tiger tear him to shreds.

But they were all disappointed in the end.

What none of them expected was that the tiger suddenly stopped right in front of Lin Fan and nuzzled up against him. It was almost as if the lead young master wasn't its master, rather its master was Lin Fan!

The lead young master's mouth dropped to the ground in shock.

This tiger was the gift that his father had given him when he was just a child. He had taken care of it and had grown up with it, but now it was acting as if it had nothing to do with him. Not only that, it was also nuzzling up against Lin Fan like this, acting so close to him.

This feeling…

It was like having one's wife taken from them!

The lead young master said in a shaky voice, "Ah Hu, what's wrong? What did he do to you?"

However, the tiger just completely ignored the young master and did all that it could to flatter Lin Fan.

Seeing that Lin Fan wasn't paying it any attention, it even laid down on its back and presented its belly to Lin Fan. It was even acting like a little kitten, acting cute to try to appeal to Lin Fan.

For a proud tiger to do something like this, it was clear that it had completely submitted to Lin Fan.

Seeing this was a heavy blow to the young master and he definitely couldn't accept it.

In his rage, he pulled out his sword and pointed it at Lin Fan as he roared, "You! What witchcraft have you used to trick my Ah Hu?! I will cut you down right now!"

But before he could do a single thing, the tiger also jumped off the ground and finally turned to look at the young master.

Unlike before, it bared its teeth as it looked at its master as if it was its enemy. It was actually protecting Lin Fan from its master!

What was going on here?!

This was another heavy blow to the young master and he really couldn't bear to fight the tiger…So he tried to reason with it again.

The young master lowered his voice and made it as gentle as he could as he said, "Ah Hu, remember me? I am your friend, your brother. Come back to me."

But the tiger still looked at the young master with hostility even though the young master was doing all he could to calm it down.

Lin Fan knew how this would end, so he was about to raise his hand to finish it. However, before he could, there was a stern voice that rang out, "Enough!"

All of the young masters trembled as they were shocked to hear this voice before quickly standing at attention.

Lin Fan turned in the direction this voice came from and saw that it was a middle aged man with a handlebar moustache. There seemed to be nothing special about his appearance, but the uniform that he wore was more than enough to show what was special about him.

Or rather, it was the badge that was a symbol of his rank.

A general!

This was a general in the Mu Stellar Army!

Anyone that could become a general was a World Realm Expert, which was why Lin Fan hadn't noticed this middle aged man until he spoke up.

The general ignored the young masters and came to the lead young master before saying, "I think that you've already had enough fun." Then he turned to Lin Fan and said, "I apologize for their rash behaviour, but I hope that you can forgive them."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at the general.

Although he had apologized, it was clear from the tone of his voice that this apology wasn't sincere. There was even a trace of an order that was in his voice when he spoke to him.

But Lin Fan knew that it was better than to cause trouble now, especially since there was a war happening. He chose to let these kids go since he had only been planning on teaching them a little lesson in the first place.

He gave a nod and said, "You can go back now."

Of course, his words were for the tiger.

The tiger looked up at him with a look like a wife that had been abandoned, but seeing the stern look on Lin Fan's face, it had no choice but to leave. It came to the young master's side and licked his hand before disappearing.

Seeing this, the young master's eyes lit up again as he knew that he had regained his advantage again. He thought that the general was on his side, but that hope was immediately dashed when the general's cold gaze fell onto him.

The general said in an ice cold voice, "You are embarrassments to our army."

The young master's mouth opened to say something, but before he could, the general said, "All of you will run fifty laps before the end of the day. If you don't, then you will all be punished according to martial law."

The chins of all the young masters dropped when they heard this, but not a single one of them dared to argue back. They knew that if they did, all that would happen is they would receive a greater punishment.

So they all just lowered their heads and headed off to the track.

But before they went, they couldn't help glaring at Lin Fan.

If it wasn't for this person, they wouldn't have been punished by the general like this. While they hadn't been able to do anything to him now, they certainly wouldn't forget about this.

Lin Fan didn't miss these gazes and shook his head before releasing a bit of his pressure to scare them.

When this mountain like pressure fell onto them, the young masters finally realized their mistakes.

They had thought that Lin Fan was someone that they could bully with their status, but they realized now that they were nothing more than frogs at the bottom of the well. It wasn't that he was easy to bully, but rather because he felt that they weren't worth his time at all…

The general didn't do a single thing as Lin Fan pressured these kids since he knew that if he stepped in, he would be the one that would offend Lin Fan.

Unlike these kids who didn't know anything, he actually knew that Lin Fan had been someone that the Mu Stellar King had sent. While he was a general, the Mu Stellar King was not someone that he could go against that easily, so naturally he wouldn't do it for these kids alone.

Though to say that he didn't have his own negative feelings towards Lin Fan was a lie.

After the kids had been sent packing, Lin Fan turned his attention to the general who was still standing there as if he was waiting for something.

The general also saw Lin Fan looking at him, so he said with a nod, "I apologize for not coming to greet you sooner. I am the general in charge of this area, so we'll be seeing each other quite a bit in the future."

Lin Fan nodded and casually said, "It's a pleasure to meet you."

Since Lin Fan wasn't willing to keep the conversation going, the general just gave a nod in response before leaving.

Lin Fan could naturally see the hidden feelings in his eyes, but he didn't plan on dealing with them. He was just here for his own purposes and as long as they didn't get in his way, he had no reason to build a relationship with them.

He was just here to mess with the Tai Stellar Kingdom.
