Chapter 265
"Worthless beast trainer," Chloe spoke, and upon hearing this, the Black Robed Man knew exactly who she was referring to.
He raised an eyebrow slightly surprised, "I didn't expect our respected Miss to stoop to the level of belittling others."
Chloe looked at him calmly, "Are you deaf? I'm not belittling him behind his back, I openly disdain him."
Hearing her words, the Black Robed Man laughed, "Miss doesn't seem like someone who'd dislike someone for no reason. Seems like you've overheard my previous conversation with that beast trainer?"
Caught off guard, Chloe pouted and continued to pet Wang's head, remaining silent.
Daniel, disliking this man, stepped forward to Chloe's side, watching the Black Robed Man alertly, "Did you come here just to indulge in this petty gossip?"
"If so, you can leave now."
The Black Robed Man raised his hands in surrender, "No need to be so apprehensive, love. I merely came to assess Miss Chloe's progress in training."
"After all, regardless of how you see it, I am technically her current owner."
Qin Huaibei scoffed, "A devil of an owner indeed! Is there any owner who ties us up and forces us to work?"
The Black Robed Man chuckled, "Why not, young one. Your world experience is lacking."
With that, he boldly approached Chloe, leaning in slightly, "Now, let me see how well you've commanded this tiger."
"My dear, I hope you've performed remarkably, ideally better than that worthless beast trainer you mentioned."
Chloe stiffened, holding her hand up to signal Wang to stand.
Wang, being intelligent, took nearly two seconds to understand Chloe's hand gesture, and hesitantly got up. Its stern, green gaze fixated upon Chloe, observing her expression.
Upon seeing Chloe's satisfied expression, Wang was instantly overjoyed.
The "purring" sound emitted from its throat was a clear indication of its happiness.
Seeing this, Chloe's mood, which was previously disrupted by the Black Robed Man's words, improved greatly.
She then gave another command, "Raise your paw."
This time, Wang's reaction was even quicker. It lifted its paw in less than half a second.
It even carefully retracted its fierce claws, to prevent hurting Chloe.
Seeing this, the Black Robed Man straightened up, "What else? I hope to see more tangible results."
Chloe: "…"
"You can't do it yourself, so you're forcing me?"
As she finished speaking, she disregarded the Black Robed Man's expression and directly commanded, "Go, get close to that dumbass behind me, who utterly embodies the word 'posh' with his black cloak."
Black Robed Man: "…"
He involuntarily touched his sleeve– was he really that pretentious?
Wang, who received the command, was clearly hesitant.
It detested everyone in the Viper Group. Its revulsion was so extreme that it would roar, bellow, and bare its claws at the mere sight of them.
Asking Wang to approach the Black Robed Man; besides stretching its claws out to scratch and bite the man, it likely wouldn't do anything else.
While hesitating, Wang heard Chloe talking again,
"Don't hurt him, go lick this pretentious man's hand."
The pretentious man himself stayed silent for a moment. Seeing some usefulness in Chloe, he didn't argue with her but stretched out his hand seriously.
Wang roared furiously from his throat, just about to flare up when Chloe roughly rubbed his head.
It didn't hurt; it was more like a massage, effortlessly calming his mood.
Chloe stared down into Wang's eyes. The two different species couldn't communicate, but she had this strange feeling that she could read Wang's deepest feelings through his eyes.
Chloe consoled him without a word —
Don't be afraid, stand still for now, appease him, we'll have ways to hammer him down.
Chloe wasn't sure if Wang understood her, but the fact was, Wang bowed his head in agreement.
He slowly walked to Black Robed Man with deep wariness and hatred in his eyes.
Because of his large frame, to lick the hand of the running man, Wang had to lower his head.
The big fierce tiger lowered his head and licked the Black Robed Man's hand, submitting in a way.
But Wang's eyes were fierce, he didn't look down out of habit, but stared hard into the eyes of the Black Robed Man.
Seemingly trying to scare the Black Robed Man to death with his gaze.
After two licks, Wang quickly bounded back to Chloe's side, rubbing against her fondly.
Chloe stroked Wang's head, "Well done."
The test ended; everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Black Robed Man looked at Chloe and Wang, with a meaningful glance.
Actually, this couldn't be considered a very successful attempt, but compared to the previous animal trainers, Chloe appeared extremely impressive.
Black Robed Man, always generous with his praises, said, "You did a good job."
Chloe retorted, "I don't need you to tell me that, I know myself."
The Black Robed Man spoke again after a moment of silence, "Excessive rigidity leads to fragility."
"Really?" Chloe scoffed, "My father always taught me not to be a pushover, with my background and abilities, even if I blew up The No.1 Military Academy, no one would dare intervene."
When her words fell, everyone in the room dared not speak.
After all, just by thinking about how indulgent Xavier was to Chloe, one could tell her words were not an exaggeration.
Daniel quietly gave her a thumbs-up, "As expected from the progenitor, such an exceptional way to educate a daughter."
Indeed, Qin Huaibei’s eyes were deep; he felt envious.
Seeing that no matter what he said, Chloe would not give him a good face, Black Robed Man lost interest. He gave a few more warnings before leaving.
Once he was gone, Chloe stood up and said to the Viper Group soldiers who had been supervising them from behind,
"Do you know? Your boss is a big pervert, stupid, self-righteous jerk."
The soldiers: "......"
They dared not move, not at all.
In the following days, the Black Robed Man would occasionally check on their progress. Chloe deliberately encouraged Wang to appear more and more obedient, as if she were seriously investing in his training.
In reality, she had never used any professional training techniques at all. The primary daily activity was to merely keep Wang company and play with him.
After all, all their devices had been confiscated by the Black Robed Man and there were no other entertainment activities to partake in. Thus, she decided that Wang was really all they had to kill time.
Once Wang's injuries healed, he was bursting with energy, perfectly capable of handling the ill-meaning scum at the No.1 Military Academy.
However, an unexpected visitor showed up one day.
It was a gaunt middle-aged man with yellowish and brittle hair.
He glared at Chloe maliciously.
"So, you're the new beast-tamer, huh? Care for a challenge?"
