Next day.
After breakfast, Xiu Jimei had already gone out of nowhere. They were not surprised anymore after recalling about last night's talk. This time they only needed to discuss where to look for spirit beasts to tame.
Again, they did not want to flash in the exam section this time. There were still other branches of duty, ranging from gathering ancient spirit vegetables and herbs, hunting ancient spirit beasts to cooking them into a dish.
They cleaned the campgrounds and leveled the rest of the campfires. As it waited for Xiu Jimei, they relaxed a little.
Xiu Jikai was not calm. He wanted to catch up with his sister but was stopped by Ming Zise. The man was not worried about his twin getting hurt, but worried about bringing home something unexpected.
He doesn't believe the girl with the weird and always careless idea will bring home a zebra.
Zebras have a black and white striped body, the stature of horses in general. But it felt unsuitable as his sister's wild spirit beast.
"Oh, cousin sister. He'll be fine. Wait for Xiao Mei to return," persuaded Yan Yujie to be slightly depressed as well.
Xiu Jikai snorted, "He wasted a lot of time," he said reasoned.
After waiting for less than half an hour, Xiu Jimei returned. But he came back alone. But seeing his smile that could not be hidden, they became curious.
"Did it work?" asked Xuan Xing.
"of course. I've persuaded the zebra to come with me. He certainly wants to be guaranteed to eat a lot of meat."
"Eating meat?!" Yan Yujie was surprised. "Didn't zebras eat grass?"
"Could it be that ancient spirit zebras were meat eaters?" guess Kin Wenqian was also very curious.
Beside Wang Xuyue, Cip Cip was a little uncomfortable. Somehow he felt that Xiu Jimei did not have a good pet. Maybe they could threaten him.
"Where is the zebra? Could it be that you put it into the innate spiritual space?" Xiu Jikai had a dark face.
"Of course not. He's in the back. I just ran with him but he's too slow." Xiu Jimei laughed a little.
Shortly after, they heard a roar from a distance. Hearing this voice, they were even more shocked. Do zebras even have this kind of sound?
But when they saw a huge shadow leaping into the air from behind the thick grass, Yan Yujie shouted in surprise. Even the Cip Cip himself shivered and eventually fainted.
"Cip Chip!" Wang Xuyue was surprised to see Cip Cip faint again.
Could it be that this pet ancient spirit beast had a weak heart?
The shadow that had just jumped into the air finally landed beside Xiu Jimei. Xiu Jikai had a dark face. As for Yan Yujie as well as the others, they took a step back.
People who may not be surprised to see this are only Ming Zise and Wuming who are secretly in the darkness—-almost slipped from the branch of the tree he stepped on.
"This ... It's zebra? This is what you said zebra??!" Yan Yujie shouted in annoyance at his cousin sister who was now petting the furry beast.
"really. It's Zebra. The pet spirit beast that will be my mount." Xiu Jimei nodded.
"Xiao Mei, you're serious right?" Kin Wenqian was also a little incredulous. "It's not a zebra, it's a white tiger!"
What had just jumped from behind the tall bushes was not the zebra of the striped horse as they had imagined. But the flesh-eating ancient spirit beast, the ancient spirit white tiger.
Since the white tiger had black and white stripes with neat lines, Xiu Jimei gave it the name Zebra. This name for his spirit beast is not the real name of the horse breed.
Clearly the white tiger is a large cat breed with sharp teeth and grows large. The white tiger had a height almost reaching Xiu Jimei's head. His body was slightly fat, his legs were strong and sharp-nailed and there were two protruding upper fangs.
The white tiger roared a little at them but his eyes were lazy.
"Why did you bring the white tiger home? Can't you really bring a real zebra?" Yan Yujie was still upset and shouted at his cousin's sister.
But Xiu Jikai who was next to him was not happy. "Grass-eating animals are no match for my sister. He would never have such a spirit beast in his life."
"Why really? Zebras are also perfect for a pretty cousin's sister."
"Because my sister has a habit that is sometimes abnormal. Certain spirit beasts were afraid when they saw it."
"..." - ".This is also a fact, inner Yan Yujie. Looking at the Cip Cip who had just woken up from fainting, he felt pity.
Jia Lishan was not willing to fuss over this anymore. He asked Xiu Jimei if he saw any other ancient spirit beasts around the white tiger nest.
In the end, Xiu Jimei took them to a place. When the place Xiu Jimei showed appeared before them, an boundless admiration appeared in their day.
The meadows they saw today were hidden behind those dense blacks. The breadth is uncountable. There were many ancient spirit zebras that were eating grass.
"I originally wanted to tame one of the white tigers in his own nest. But I accidentally passed by here and saw the mottled horse eating grass. But there was one thing that interested me at that time, I saw a white tiger that was sneaking amongst the group of zebras that were busy eating. So I think he's pretending to be a herd of zebras." Xiu Jimei explained at length about the details of yesterday afternoon's incident.
"That's why you named the white tiger a zebra?" asked Xuan Xing.
"Yes. The name Zebra also fits. Isn't the fur also striped in black and white?" Xiu Jimei stroked the body of the white tiger who was now rolling his eyeballs in annoyance.
"God, I never expected to hear a story where a tiger pretended to be a zebra. I think the white tiger wants to be a zebra because it lives a lonely life" Yan Yujie said as he was.
Finally, the white tiger beside Xiu Jimei gave him an annoyed look. "It was a strategy of getting prey so I could eat and survive. How could this be called a lonely spirit beast?!"
Yan Yujie and the others were startled again by the talking white tiger.
"Can you talk?"
"Of course you can! I am an ancient spirit beast who has lived here for thousands of years. Why can't I talk? Isn't that stupid chicken talking too?" The ancient spirit white tiger was even more annoyed with Yan Yujie who wore an innocent expression.
"So you're old ..." Yan Yujie docked to Xiu Jikai's side, but was pushed aside by Xiu Jikai while putting on an expression of disdain.
"..." - ".Please, that's not what it means ... The white tiger wanted to choke on something.
The secretly frightened Cip Cip beside Wang Xuyue did not accept being spelled out a stupid chicken by the white tiger.
"You old and old! Who are you saying I'm stupid?! I'm definitely not stupid!"
The white tiger snorted, "From a long time ago, all kinds of chickens have been considered the most stupid and greedy creatures. The fish is even more cunning and clever," he sneered.
