Chapter 858 Certain Feelings


    Rocky was persuasive in his efforts to turn the situation around. Fortunately, he helped the Cao n


    emerge victorious from the beast evaluationpetition in addition to gaining a psychological


    advantage. However, this benefitpletely vanished after one day.


    Unsurprisingly, the Qi n won the next day''s beast tamingpetition. This meant the two ns


    would have onest battle against each other to settle the score once and for all—the beast curing


    In fact, none of the two ns had many advantages over the other in terms of beast curing. Finding


    several highly-skilled beast curers in the entire Wild Spirit Land would be difficult, let alone in the


    Timber Deity Empire.


    Even in vast empires such as the Holy Dragon Empire and the Magic Phoenix Empire, finding a batch


    of skilled beast curers would still be quite challenging.


    Just as Rocky''s master Sheridan had said, among beast masters of the Wild Spirit Land, the beast


    curers were rarest. Those that possessed great strength were even fewer. If judged with such high


    standards, then none of the beast curers that took part in the Beast Master Contest were qualified.


    Compared with their beast evaluation and beast taming skills, Alyssa''s people''s beast curing skills were


    at a serious disadvantage. Thus, it wasn''t hard to imagine how inferior the beast curers who attended


    the Beast Masters Contest were.


    Which was why Travis and Mary had the advantage of being in the limelight. Compared to the other


    beast curers who had no prior training or knowledge in terms of Beast Curing Skills, Travis and Mary


    had received medical training since early childhood. Coupled with the Xiao n''s ancestral Beast


    Curing Skill which was quite famous in the Timber Deity Empire, the duo naturally grew up with the


    advantage. None of the senior beast curers who participated in the Beast Master Contest stood a


    chance against them.


    A decade ago, the Cao n''s former chief was involved in an incident. Ever since the Qi n always


    had a slight advantage over the Cao n in each Beast Master Contest and this next contest didn''t


    appear to be any different.


    It was precisely because of this that Luci prevailed in winning over the Xiao n two years ago—


    because of their potential in the Beast Curing Skill. Back then, Travis and Mary of the Xiao n gained


    their reputations as outstanding beast curers in the Timber Deity Empire. To win the Beast Master


    Contest, Luci had to be well-prepared in advance. After two years of hard efforts, the brother and


    sister never disappointed Luci. Both of their performances in the first two rounds were outstanding


    and proved to be undoubtedly a good sign for the Cao n.


    ording to the information collected by the Cao n, the Qi n was nning to appoint the three


    beast curers that defeated the Cao n three years ago. If the information was correct, the Cao n


    would possibly have an advantage in the next battle because the three beast curers that the Qi n


    selected were not very powerful. The Cao n lost to the Qi n that year only because it hadcked


    the necessary talented beast curers.


    The Cao n also realized their weak pointster on and, as a result, painstakingly recruited Yang—a


    well-known beast curer in the Timber Deity Empire. Then, they proceeded to look for ns that were


    skilled in beast curing. This was what led them to find the Xiao n and even win over them.


    Therefore, in this year''s contest, the Cao n was much stronger with the help of Yang, Travis and


    Mary. If the Qi n chose to send the same people to join the contest, then the Cao n would have a


    better chance of winning.


    To ensure the victory, Lucille had a pep talk with the three beast curers before the contest. As the


    backup contestant, Juey was not invited by Lucille. Juey only managed to qualify as a backup because


    Rocky assigned it to her. The Cao n knew that Juey had zero knowledge on the Beast Curing Skill.


    She was nothing more than a puppet in their eyes. That was why, in the two previous rounds, Juey


    didn''t attend. Apparently, she was only being used by the Cao n to gain support from Rocky.


    "Tomorrow''spetition means life or death for the Cao n, so I hope you''ll all perform your best. Of


    course, you''ll all be given your fair shares. If we win tomorrow''spetition, it means we will win the


    championship title. If sessful, our n will recover from its defeat and be well-known once


    again throughout the Timber Deity Empire. Also, if you perform well enough, you''ll even draw the


    attention of royal family. I hope I''ve made the meaning and significance of this win very clear. I hope

    you won''t disappoint me!" Luci eximed while staring at them all seriously.


    "Don''t worry, Chief Luci! You can be certain all three of us will go all out to win thispetition for


    both you and your n." Travis immediately bowed to show his respect.


    Yang and Mary nodded.


    "Thank you, everyone. It''s gettingte. Please go back and get some rest early." Luci smiled and


    nodded before dismissing the trio.


    "I''ve heard that Tod, Freddy, and their fellows will be watching thepetition between the Cao n


    and the Qi n tomorrow..." Lucas turned to Luci and said once everyone had left.


    "I suspect Uncle Tod and Uncle Freddy are waiting to see the Cao n humiliate itself. If the n loses


    again this time, they''lle up with enough excuses to make me give up the position of chief," Luci


    said in a serious tone.


    "Then we have to win tomorrow. Defeat is uneptable!" Lucas sighed and nodded. If the Cao n


    was defeated, they''d not only be trampled on by the Qi n, but also usher in a bloody storm of


    internal strife.


    "By the way, where is Mr. Rookie? I haven''t seen him for the entire day." Luci suddenly remembered


    and asked.


    "I heard from Miss Juey that Mr. Rookie was suffering from some internal injuries yesterday after he


    used the Heavenly Shadow Evaluation Skill. He required secluded cultivation to fully recover," Lucas


    exined.


    "Are his injuries serious? Is he all right?" Luci asked, the worry clear in her voice. She never


    expected Rocky to go all out and acquire internal injuries in the process to help assure the Cao n''s


    victory during thepetition.


    "I think he''s fine. Queenie informed me that she visited Mr. Rookie yesterday and found out he was all


    right." Lucas nodded his head in reassurance.


    "That''s good," Lucimented as a wave of relief washed over her.


    "Chief, what do you think of Mr. Rookie?" Lucas asked abruptly while looking at Luci.


    "What do you mean, Master Lucas?" Luci asked in confusion.


    "You''ve done enough for the Cao n over the past few years. I think it''s time for you to get an


    assistant. I believe Mr. Rookie is a good choice. Besides, Chief, I can see that you have…certain


    feelings for him. So, I am thinking you two may..." Lucas said bluntly.
