Celestial Beast Taming

Chapter 295: Chapter 180: Hong Ji’s Screen Debut

Yu Juanjuan had instructed Hong Ji that for the livestream, all she had to do was eat in front of this large, white table.

The stream’s frame wouldn’t show any area beyond the white table.

Hong Ji took advantage of the less than ten minutes she had to quickly prepare the food.

Yu Juanjuan was, after all, a massive internet celebrity on Light Mirror with over twenty million fans. For the past few days, Yu Juanjuan had been hyping up Hong Ji’s stream.

It wasn’t time for Hong Ji’s stream to start yet, but the comment section of the livestream room was already buzzing with activity.

[Shining Galaxy: Hey guys, looks like Juanjuan isn’t streaming today. She said she found a close friend to fill in for her. This is the first time Juanjuan’s had someone sub for her, so I’m kind of looking forward to it.]

[Luo Stone: I’m not that excited, honestly. I watch these streams for the food, and not every mukbanger can make eating look as good as Juanjuan does.]

[Sun Niuniu: Juanjuan said the friend subbing for her is a beautiful girl whose looks are on par with her own. Watching a pretty girl eat is the best thing to pair with a meal.]

[Master Pixiu: Sigh, don’t you guys think the stuff Juanjuan usually eats is too ordinary? To get more followers, a mukbanger needs to eat things other people don’t dare to. Just eating a lot and making it look good isn’t that appealing anymore.]

The stream’s comment section was on fire. The moment the clock struck the hour, Hong Ji appeared on stream, right on time.

"Can you all see me and hear my voice?"

Hong Ji’s beauty was undeniable; almost everyone who saw her for the first time was left stunned.

Dressed in a red dress with her hair gently pinned up, Hong Ji was like a red plum blossom blooming in a world of ice and snow—imparting an air of indescribable, cold elegance and nobility.

Yet, her voice, amidst its cool clarity, carried a hint of gentle sweetness, creating a unique and striking contrast.

[Falling Maple Leaves: Oh my god! The sub Juanjuan found is so gorgeous!]

[Zi Xi: It’s kind of a waste for such a great beauty to be a mukbanger. I think she’s even prettier than Ling Fei, the announcer for the Guardian Beast Master league.]

[He Zhigui: Bro, your profile page is full of Ling Fei’s hosting clips. Are you changing your favorite at the speed of light?]

[Shining Galaxy: We can hear you, beautiful! If you find the barrage of comments overwhelming, you can turn on clean mode to focus on the stream.]

Shining Galaxy was one of Yu Juanjuan’s long-time fans and also a moderator for her channel.

Previously, Shining Galaxy had been a little worried that this substitute Yu Juanjuan found would negatively affect the channel’s popularity.

Many big influencers had lost followers because they chose poor substitutes.

Shining Galaxy had always watched Yu Juanjuan’s streams and was, in fact, a fan of her looks, really liking her "sweet girl" type.

And yet, he had to admit that the substitute Yu Juanjuan found was an absolute stunner!

Hong Ji watched the scrolling comments seriously. After confirming that the viewers could hear her, she thought about searching for a message from Zhong Yi.

Hong Ji hadn’t even started eating yet, but people were already sending gifts.

The comments were scrolling by so fast that it was impossible to tell which message was from Zhong Yi.

So, Hong Ji just went ahead and turned on the streamer’s clean mode!

[Dian Dian Lingxi: Kinda curious what this new streamer is going to eat. She’s so skinny, I bet she can’t eat much!]

[Jun Run: Juanjuan mentioned on stream before that being able to eat so much has to do with a Guardian Beast Master’s Talent. Not everyone can have a Talent like Juanjuan’s.]

As the audience was guessing what Hong Ji would eat for her debut stream, the red-dressed girl on screen reached a hand out of frame.

Then, two large, fresh legs, which had been meticulously trimmed and styled, appeared on the white tabletop.

Then, the girl picked up one of the legs, styled to look like a fairy wand, and began to feast on it.

Watching Hong Ji’s livestream, Zhong Yi’s eyebrows twitched uncontrollably.

There were indeed many bizarre food streams on the Light Mirror platform, but those streams were just that—bizarre.

Hong Ji cradling a styled leg from a Giant Horror Demon and starting to gnaw on it went far beyond the realm of ’bizarre’.

But Zhong Yi was still supportive, sending several of the most expensive gifts.

The "Mythical Secret Realm" was the most expensive gift on the streaming platform, and it was rarely ever sent.

After all, a single "Mythical Secret Realm" cost ten million Silver Mirrors.

Silver Mirrors were the virtual currency of the Light Mirror Platform, with an exchange rate of ten to one with Federation Coins.

In other words, when Zhong Yi sent a "Mythical Secret Realm" gift, it was equivalent to spending one million Federation Coins.

The high-value gifts immediately triggered the platform to drive traffic, funneling more casual viewers into Yu Juanjuan’s stream.

Zhong Yi thought to himself, ’Yu Juanjuan’s account is verified. The Light Mirror Platform knows she’s a Celestial Destiny Seeker.’

’Otherwise, if this were anyone else’s stream, a mukbang like this would definitely risk being shut down by the admins.’

When Hong Ji brought out the two Giant Horror Demon legs, the barrage of comments was still scrolling frantically.

But when Hong Ji picked up a Giant Horror Demon leg and her pristine teeth tore into its firm muscle, the chat froze for a long moment.

Then, it started scrolling even more frantically!

It was so fast that even Zhong Yi could barely make out what the comments were saying.

But Zhong Yi could guess what the comments were saying.

The Giant Horror Demon would indeed be unfamiliar to a Guardian Beast Master who had just awakened their Soul Base.

But for Guardian Beast Masters over the age of twenty, the Giant Horror Demon, a type of Demon that appeared in large numbers in the Second Level Horned Demon Secret Realm, was quite common.

Sharp-eyed viewers would quickly realize that these two legs, trimmed to look like fairy wands, came from a Giant Horror Demon.

Watching Hong Ji eat with such single-minded focus, Zhong Yi figured that as long as he didn’t interrupt her, she would most likely keep eating until Yu Juanjuan returned.

After sending a few more "Mythical Secret Realm" gifts, Zhong Yi left the stream.

He reached out and placed his hand on the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon’s Egg, which was so large it nearly touched the ceiling.

The Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon’s Egg had not yet hatched, but the young dragon inside was already sentient.

Previously, Tao En had personally fed the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon. However, during the years Tao En’s soul was injured, the Dragon Egg hadn’t received any Energy from the outside world.

At first, when Zhong Yi placed his hand on the Dragon Egg, the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon’s attitude toward him was both wary and cold.

Over the past few days, Zhong Yi had fed the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon plenty of materials containing the three elements of water, earth, and wind.

He had even fed it a great deal of Drunken Dragon Jade!

Having not absorbed any Energy from the outside world for so long, the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon quickly warmed up to Zhong Yi.

Now, when Zhong Yi rested his hand on the Dragon Egg, the young dragon inside would take the initiative to interact with him.

Zhong Yi wasn’t in a hurry to use a Soul Taming Seed to form a Contract with the Cloud Ridge Realm Dragon. Instead, he took out another large batch of materials rich in the water, earth, and wind elements.

The Cloud Ridge Realm Dragon didn’t immediately absorb the materials Zhong Yi presented, but instead wobbled its Dragon Egg slightly.

The moment Zhong Yi took out the Drunken Dragon Jade, a wave of fawning and craving emanated from within the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon’s Egg.

Zhong Yi gave a helpless smile.

"You really are a little glutton. You can have Drunken Dragon Jade every day from now on."

"But if you want to eat Drunken Dragon Jade every day, you’ll need to form a Contract with me and become my Guardian Beast."

For a Guardian Beast like the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon, Zhong Yi wouldn’t choose Tao En’s approach of simply building a good relationship—making the dragon dependent on him through long-term feeding so that it would obey his commands after hatching.

Tao En had done so because he didn’t have the Ability to form a Contract with the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon, whose Tier had already reached the Fantasy Tier.

Forming a Contract with a Fantasy Tier Guardian Beast consumed too much Soul Power!

Even experts at the level of the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations, whose souls were exceptionally powerful, would not choose to form a Contract with a Guardian Beast above the Mortal Beast Level.

But Zhong Yi possessed such an ability!

Zhong Yi felt it was better to form a Contract with the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon to ensure there would be no mishaps when commanding it in the future.

In truth, Zhong Yi didn’t need to ask for the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon’s opinion; he could use the Soul Taming Seed to form the Contract directly.

However, since the Cloud Ridge Boundary Dragon was an intelligent Creature that had already awakened its sentience, Zhong Yi wanted to ask for its opinion before forming the Contract.
