The task of naming the Demon Soldier naturally fell to Du Yu.
Yang Qingqing greatly appreciated her disciple’s naming skills: Yan Ruyu, Bai Yujing, Celestial Cyan Porcelain...
Various names that need no deeper understanding; just reading them is enough to feel their beauty.
However, this time Yang Qingqing miscalculated.
Du Yu named the bow "Withered and Flourishing Bow."
He named the arrows of the Withering Arrow Array "Withered," while the arrows full of vitality he named "Glory."
Actually, these names aren’t bad.
After all, the words "Withered" and "Flourishing" are of a high standard and quite fitting.
Du Yu sent the Withered Arrow to the Mountain Realm - beneath the Twin Trees, while Yang Qingqing sent the Withered and Flourishing Bow and Glory Arrow to the Jiangshan Map - beneath the Dixiu Tree.
Afterward, the master and disciple, along with three Chi Bears, headed to Crescent Lake.
Undoubtedly, Du Yu was increasingly fond of riding Little Tai Sui.
Firstly, the Chi You experience card is rare, a display of full grandeur!
Secondly, Little Tai Sui’s size is just right, letting Du Yu clamp his legs around the mount.
As for Bai Yujing...
Though Little Sweet Sister is lovely, she’s a bit too large.
Du Yu finds it difficult to ride her normally; he either sits sideways or cross-legged.
As for sitting duck-style, Du Yu is wholly unwilling.
It’s too darn feminine!
Rather than ride that way, he’d prefer to ride with legs spread apart!
The reputation of Prince Du must not be ruined on Little Sweet Sister’s back!
It’s said that the Human Race walks the Spirit path, no matter which spiritual attribute they cultivate, possessing giant transformation spirit skills.
But alas, such spirit skills require a high adaptation level, specifically Fifth Level·Spirit Master, while Du Yu is merely Third Level·Spirit Master.
"Wow!" Little Fen Yang exclaimed, "So many bears~"
"Indeed, never seen so many bears even at a martial arts competition." Du Yu rode Little Tai Sui, cresting the hill north of Crescent Lake.
Sight stretched afar, three layers thick within and without, everywhere were Chi Bears.
Each Chi Bear, with black and white fur, either sitting or lying down, or curled into a ball, looked endearingly cute.
For the Great Xia people, especially for someone like Du Yu with a special affection for pandas, resisting these round, chubby creatures is genuinely hard.
At this moment, he just wanted to plunge headlong into this Chi Bear ocean...
"Go, go, go, Tai Sui, charge!" Du Yu clamped his legs, leaned forward, pinching Tai Sui’s ears.
"Yip!" Little Tai Sui yelled, charging ahead!
"Yip?" Forbidden City turned its head, glancing at its female owner.
Yang Qingqing smiled, shaking her head, signaling Forbidden City to descend normally.
Hongye maintained a standing posture, walking left-front of Forbidden City, guiding a person and bear forward.
Her gaze focused on Du Yu, witnessing him charge into the Chi Bear ocean.
"Yip~"
"Yip! Yip!!" The Chi Bears let out a chorus of cries; Du Yu was like a tiger among sheep, reaching out with sinful hands toward the fluffy toys.
Little Tai Sui’s big round eyes watched Du Yu roll and knead through the Chi Bear ocean, pressing on black and white spheres everywhere.
Even the master let out a loud shout: "Rua!"
"Hehe~" Little Fen Yang was wildly delighted, copying Du Yu’s voice sweetly, "Rua!"
Little Tai Sui: "..."
Is our race truly this fun?
Little Tai Sui sat on the ground, casually picked up a Little Chi Bear, nestled it in his arms, and rubbed.
No special feelings, though?
"Rua!" Du Yu’s voice suddenly rang beside his ears, Little Tai Sui felt a dizzying whirlwind, shook and swayed from the rubbing.
"Yip~" Little Tai Sui yipped, the Little Chi Bear in his arms also yipped along.
The scene was a mess!
From afar, Yang Qingqing riding Forbidden City watched her dashing disciple playing wild among the Chi Bear thicket; she couldn’t help but touch her forehead.
That crisp formal wear was entirely wasted on you.
"Ooh~~~" Suddenly, a bear roar resounded, loud and prolonged.
At this moment, Du Yu lay amidst the Chi Bears, holding four black and white fluff balls, his face covered by a yipping little toy.
Du Yu shook his head, nudged aside the little fellow on his face, and looked into the distance.
Over by the green Tai Sui Giant Bamboo, a circle of giant Chi Bears sat gathered, presumably tribal elders or clan leaders.
The roar came from Elder Yinsuo, a Chi Bear with a purple conical hat.
This roar not only stopped Du Yu’s wild antics but also led the Chi Bears by Crescent Lake to stand up.
Including the giant elders and tribal clan leaders, they all faced Du Yu’s direction.
Following that, the Chi Bears by Crescent Lake, big and small, clasped their hands, slightly bowed to Du Yu.
"Yip!"
"Yip~~~"
Du Yu set aside his playful intentions, he rose and tidied his attire, clasping his hands, bowing toward the Tai Sui Giant Bamboo.
"Whoosh!!!"
At the very moment Du Yu bowed, a vigorous wave of Demon Breath rippled out from beneath the Tai Sui Green Bamboo!
The Chi Bears were suddenly bewildered.
They turned and looked toward the Tai Sui Green Bamboo.
Du Yu’s gaze passed through the gaps between two giant Chi Bears, spotting the wave’s origin.
It was a giant Chi Bear, 8 meters tall, like a standalone 3-floor building.
On its head, it wore a dust-colored conical hat, with hands clasped, bowing to Du Yu.
"Yip!"
"Woo~~~" The area around Crescent Lake erupted completely!
The Chi Bears rejoiced, cheering exuberantly.
The older Chi Bears shouted and waved vigorously.
The younger Chi Bears rollicked and frolicked.
"Oh!" Du Yu uttered a light cry, catching the charging Little Tai Sui clumsily.
Unexpectedly, Little Tai Sui’s overwhelming joy added force to his charge, knocking Du Yu beneath him.
"Master! Master!" Little Tai Sui exclaimed excitedly, "Promoted! Elder Thick Earth promoted! Demon Saint!"
Du Yu’s eyes slightly widened, Thick Earth?
Isn’t that Elder Langao’s beloved pet?
Furthermore, advancing to the status of Demon Saint?!
This is undoubtedly an enormous piece of good news!
For hundreds of years, the Chi Bear Race seemed to be cursed by the heavens.
No matter how hard they tried, imagined countless methods, or used all their resources, they still couldn’t break through to the Saint Level.
Finally!
The Chi Bear Race has broken the shackles of the Peak Stage of Demon Emperor!
"Haha, Master! Master! We did it!" Little Tai Sui pressed down on Du Yu, hugging Du Yu’s neck, rubbing its furry head side to side.
"Haha!" Du Yu was infected by the naive joy, but as soon as he laughed out loud, he heard a particularly loud roar.
"Woo~~~" The roar of the Chi Bears shook the heavens and resounded through Bamboo Grove.
In the midst of the Chi Bear roar, Du Yu felt the weight on his body continuously increase.
A swarm of Chi Bears pounced over, piling up like a human pyramid, completely submerging Du Yu within them.
"Hahaha... uh." Du Yu’s laughter abruptly stopped as he hurriedly propped his hands in front of his chest, trying to leave himself some breathing space.
"Ying~ Ying!" In the distance, the Forbidden City was also happily calling out, spinning in place with its master.
While to the left front, Hongye stood dazedly, staring at Elder Thick Earth beside the Tai Sui Thunder Bamboo.
First Saint of the Demon Taming World·Chi Bear Race!
Hongye knew that there are countless Demon Beast races in this world, and many can become saints.
Why can other races become saints, and we can’t?
My Chi Bear Race possesses exceptional wisdom, has its own culture and beliefs, and has even formed a tribal civilization.
My Chi Bear Race is far more qualified to become saints than other Demon Beast races!
Why... why can’t we?
These words, Patriarch Hongye has asked herself countless times.
Breaking through the Emperor Level and advancing to Demon Saint has been the lifelong pursuit of Hongye, a desire that has kept her awake at night.
Until the arrival of a human youth one day brought her endless hope.
She was elected by the tribe as the first in the grand competition and came to his side.
The Golden Crow Saint within him activated the Ancient Bloodline for her, granting her unparalleled talent and potential.
Hongye initially believed she and her master would be the breakthrough creators for the Chi Bear Race after centuries.
This thought...
True, yet not entirely.
The breakthrough creator was not her, but still that human youth.
He risked his life, traveled thousands of miles to the Ashen Continent, and in the homeland of Otherworldly Chi Bears, he found Tai Sui Bamboo.
The genuine Tai Sui Bamboo!
The green, Pure Wood Attribute Tai Sui Mother Bamboo!
"Ying~" Tears welled in Hongye’s eyes as she gazed at the towering figure of Thick Earth.
Starting today,
The Chi Bear Race will have its own deity and will enter the first ranks of the Beast Race.
The Chi Bear Race can also produce Tai Sui Bamboo to develop and expand their homeland.
Starting today,
Hongye can finally say with certainty that we too can become saints.
And not just tell the juniors in the tribe that our race once flourished...
"Master..." Hongye lifted her furry bear paw and wiped her moist eye sockets.
She stepped forward, searching for the small human figure amidst the boiling ocean of Chi Bears.
Actually, he’s easy to find, as a "Chi Bear Hill" has already piled up where the master is.
"Watch out! Hey! Don’t crush him!" Du Yu shouted loudly, quickly protecting a little Chi Bear in his arms.
"Phew~"
A series of Ghost Firefly Runes dispersed, slowly expanding, pushing the Chi Bears in all directions.
As the Chi Bear Hill was dismantled, lying on the ground, Du Yu suddenly felt the pressure lighten.
He finally turned over, picking up the little Chi Bear in his arms.
The little creature was less than 40 centimeters in size, like a plush toy.
Du Yu scolded with a smile, "What are you doing stirring up trouble? What if you get squeezed and hurt?"
"Ying~" The little Chi Bear flailed its little arms and legs, finally breaking free from Du Yu’s grip, scampering away.
Suddenly, a human figure appeared beside the land.
Still lying on the ground, Du Yu raised his eyes to see an elderly man in a soil-brown robe.
To wear such earthy robes and still emanate an elegant and noble aura is indeed rare.
"Elder Langao!" Du Yu continued to lie on the ground, waved with a smile.
"Hehe." Langao chuckled lightly.
Perhaps they were familiar enough now, that little rascal dared to greet her while lying down.
But Langao didn’t mind, instead looking at Du Yu with a smile, "Xiaoyu really gave this old woman a huge opportunity."
"The Tai Sui Mother Bamboo has returned, so I thought to have Thick Earth give it a try." Du Yu sat up, "Elder Langao has indeed cultivated Thick Earth well.
Amongst countless experts in Bamboo Grove, Thick Earth still held first place, paving the way for the Chi Bear Race."
For her beloved pet to unlock an advancement window, Langao was, of course, delighted.
But she obviously considered more.
Langao looked at Tai Sui Green Bamboo, watched this boiling ocean of Chi Bears, and genuinely praised, "Xiaoyu, your deeds are immeasurable..."
"Hehe." Du Yu embarrassedly scratched his head, "Junior... whoa!"
Not finished speaking, Du Yu saw Hongye shove aside a Yu Fire Talisman and rushed straight over.
Compared to Little Tai Sui, Hongye showed a lot more restraint, yet even so, Du Yu was still knocked down.
"Master..."
"Hmm?" The slightly quivering voice entered his mind, surprising Du Yu.
He raised Hongye’s head with both hands, lifting it slightly upward to see Hongye’s eyes full of mist.
Du Yu rubbed her furry cheeks, teasing with a smile: "How big a bear are you now, and head of a tribe.
Why are you still crying?"
"Ying~" Hongye whimpered and lowered her head, refusing to let him see her face again, her furry cheeks rubbing against Du Yu’s neck.
The gesture was identical to that of Little Tai Sui.
"Alright, alright." Du Yu cradled the oversized plush toy, gently patting her back.
In the azure sky, floating clouds drifted lightly.
The sun emerged from behind the clouds, its rays spilling over the Chi Bear’s Courtyard, onto Crescent Lake, causing scintillating waves.
