After exchanging a few playful remarks with Fu Wenbo, Chu Huan returned to the topic and pointed at the nearby Chilling Wolf.
"I know that every beast must have a beast crystal inside its body."
"But that's under normal circumstances. Didn't this Chilling Wolf end up like this because of my Artifact Soul skill?"
"So I'm wondering if the beast crystal in its body might have gone wrong due to the influence of my Artifact Soul skill."
Fu Wenbo pondered for a moment and said, "Come to think of it, that's really a possibility. After all, your Artifact Soul skill is kind of eerie."
"Alright! Since I can't use my Soul Power, inject your own Soul Power into this Chilling Wolf's body and scan it. If you can detect any other energy fluctuations, it means there's still a beast crystal inside this Chilling Wolf."
Under Fu Wenbo's guidance, Chu Huan called the Chilling Wolf to his side and injected his Soul Power into its body as instructed.
After more than ten seconds, as Chu Huan's Soul Power circulated through the Chilling Wolf's body, he didn't feel the presence of a beast crystal.
Seeing this, Chu Huan understood that the beast crystal inside the Chilling Wolf had indeed been absorbed by him as per the system's previous prompt.
"That's not right!"
Today, including the time in the classroom, Chu Huan had already seen three beast crystals.
Never mind the one in the classroom. Later, when he got home, Chu Huan had directly held the Bronze 1-Star beast crystal before the system responded.
By previous situations, this Chilling Wolf was nearly 30 feet away from him before. How could he have absorbed the beast crystal's energy from such a distance?
Puzzled, Chu Huan thought for a moment and asked Fu Wenbo, "Mr. Fu, do you have any beast crystals on you?"
Fu Wenbo was curious, "Yes, why do you ask?"
Chu Huan said, "Hand it over and let me see!"
Although he didn't understand what Chu Huan wanted to do now, Fu Wenbo still swiped his hand over his spatial wristwatch and took out a black iron 1-Star beast crystal.
As Chu Huan stared intently at the beast crystal in Fu Wenbo's hand.
Five seconds passed.
Ten seconds.
Fifteen seconds.
.......
Half a minute went by, and no system prompt appeared in Chu Huan's mind suggesting he could absorb the beast crystal's energy from Fu Wenbo's hand.
Instead, Fu Wenbo, unable to bear Chu Huan's intense gaze, handed the beast crystal to Chu Huan.
"Forget it, it's just a black iron 1-Star beast crystal. Take it and study it slowly by yourself!"
Chu Huan had only intended to find a beast crystal for experimentation, but he never expected Fu Wenbo to be so generous.
Therefore, without hesitation, Chu Huan pocketed the black iron 1-Star beast crystal that Fu Wenbo had thrust into his hand.
Then he looked up with an expression that was as calm as water, revealing no emotions. "Mr. Fu, don't you have any higher-grade beast crystals?"
Seeing Chu Huan's serious demeanor, Fu Wenbo fixed him with a gaze and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Kid, you're even trying to fleece me. You're pretty ruthless, aren't you?"
Seeing that Fu Wenbo had discovered his intention, Chu Huan smiled shyly and said, "It's all thanks to your lesson."
Fu Wenbo: "?????"
Chu Huan's words seemed like a compliment.
But combining Fu Wenbo's previous statement with Chu Huan's current compliment, Fu Wenbo couldn't help but feel that Chu Huan was indirectly calling him ruthless.
In response, Fu Wenbo said, "How come I didn't realize you were such a shameless guy?"
Chu Huan shrugged and said, "It's just that I never had the chance to show myself to you, Mr. Fu. It's not too late to discover it now."
Fu Wenbo: "......."
At this moment, Fu Wenbo understood from Chu Huan what is meant by the saying "people's hearts are hidden".
Even though he had been Chu Huan's homeroom teacher for two years, he had never noticed before that Chu Huan was actually such a shameless and cunning person.
Feeling speechless, Fu Wenbo sighed, "Work hard and fend for yourself. Don't always try to fleece me. Even I don't have much to spare."
Chu Huan looked at Fu Wenbo in surprise and said, "Mr. Fu, aren't you single? Shouldn't you be spending the beast crystals on yourself? Why do you look so broke?"
Fu Wenbo tightened his fists. Was the topic of being single never going to end?
Feeling a bit upset, Fu Wenbo turned his head and indicated that he didn't want to talk to Chu Huan anymore.
It hurt his feelings.
As such, the two waited quietly for half an hour. The Chilling Wolf, which Chu Huan had been teasing like a dog out of boredom, finally couldn't bear Chu Huan's inhumane behavior and collapsed to the ground, its body crooked.
Noticing the commotion, Fu Wenbo asked, "Is it dead?"
Chu Huan patted the head of the Chilling Wolf on the ground and turned to nod at Fu Wenbo, "It's completely dead."
After the Chilling Wolf died, Chu Huan sensed that his Soul Power was completely depleted.
From this, Chu Huan could also confirm that the beast controlled by The March of the Coffin Bearers relied on his Soul Power for their vitality.
Once his Soul Power could no longer be supplied, these controlled beasts would immediately die.
Thinking of this, Chu Huan rubbed his chin and said, "Hey! With this skill, I basically have a fearless battle beast at my disposal anytime. I don't even have to worry about it dying. I can just replace it. It's just that this tune takes a bit too long, nearly two to three minutes!"
Hearing Chu Huan's words, Fu Wenbo couldn't help but say irritably, "Be content with what you have. Your Artifact Soul skill comes with control function. Are you still not satisfied? I don't know how such an Artifact Soul is classified as auxiliary."
As he spoke, Fu Wenbo looked at the deceased Chilling Wolf beside Chu Huan.
Recalling the effects of Chu Huan's Artifact Soul skill so far, even though Fu Wenbo was a silver 3-Star awakener, he couldn't help but feel a hint of envy.
"Why are there so many geniuses, but not me? This is an unfair world."
