Chapter 1162: Part 1: Oren and His Friends’ Scheme

City A (Wilderness)

The Beast Taming Association building was facing a busy day as usual. Beast taming teams were coming and going.

Although the Tier-8 Beasts had all been wiped out, there were still some beasts hiding from the Beast Taming Forces.

The teams were all eager to hunt them down to earn credit points.

In the lobby, there were members discussing matters, and some were having team meetings.

There were also two groups with serious expressions on their faces.

From time to time, they looked at the people coming and going, as if they were monitoring the people entering the Beast Taming Association.

Their activities didn’t take long to alert the administration staff.

One of the male admin staff came over to check it out. He watched them from a distance and noticed that the nine members were part of Beast Tamer Oren’s team.

He recalled Beast Tamer Oren entering the special practice room earlier. He had thought the whole team was just waiting for him to come out.

But the admin staff member thought that something else was happening. He decided to go back and report to the senior admin staff.

Time passed.

Beast Tamer Oren’s friends had been waiting all day inside the Beast Taming Association building, but there was no sign of the Beast Tamer named Jeremy Night.

That young man never appeared. They had all used the special practice rooms the previous day, except for Beast Tamer Oren.

Beast Tamer Oren was busy today. He had spent the whole time on his recovery, so it was up to them to confront Jeremy Night.

During the night, the Beast Taming Association building had less activity, and most of the members had left the place.

The time had come for the night admin staff to take over.

Beast Tamer Oren had yet to leave the special practice room, whereas his nine team members were still seated in the lobby area. They were waiting for Oren to come out.

They had forgotten about the Beast Tamer named Jeremy Night.

"Our ranking has fallen to the bottom," a female Beast Tamer commented. She had checked their rankings earlier.

Hearing that, the others nodded their heads. They had checked their scores as well.

"This is not about the competition anymore. It has become an issue between our friend Oren and the Beast Tamer from the special base," a middle-aged man said.

The other friends nodded, and the female friend quieted down as well.

Right then, three people dressed in the Oren family uniform stepped inside the building. They came to the lobby, and their gazes fell on the nine people.

The team saw them as well. Seeing the three people walking towards them, they knew they wanted to ask about their second young master, Oren.

All three were men. The person standing in the middle looked to be in his forties.

He stepped forward and looked at the group. He knew they were from Master Oren’s team.

"Where is our second young master?" he asked.

Hearing that, the team members understood their intent, but before they could answer, everyone heard the sound of footsteps approaching them.

The three Beast Tamers from the family and the team members turned towards the sound. They saw Beast Tamer Oren walking towards them in high spirits.

His face was bright, and he seemed to be in a good mood. He appeared to have recovered completely. The team members exchanged looks and heaved a sigh of relief.

The Beast Tamers from the family side turned towards Master Oren, also displaying visible relief on their faces.

"Master, the family head is worried about you," the middle-aged man said to him.

Hearing that, Oren paused his footsteps and looked at him and the other two men. Then, he turned towards his nine team members.

He was feeling content after coming out of his intense practice. He hadn’t thought of the Beast Tamer named Jeremy Night.

Now that he saw everyone’s faces, the previous memories hit his mind, and his face contorted.

His mood quickly changed from peaceful and calm to ugly and angry.

"Where is he?" Oren asked.

Hearing that, the members knew Oren was talking about the Beast Tamer named Jeremy Night.

"We have been waiting here since morning, but that young man didn’t come to the association today. I’m afraid he has left for the special base," one of them said.

Hearing that, Oren grew angry.

"He shouldn’t have left like that. I have never felt this ignored before," Oren said to them.

He then turned towards the Beast Tamers from his family. He recognized them; they were three of the strongest Tier-7 Beast Tamers under his father.

"You guys, go to the airport. Check if anyone by the name of Jeremy Night left for the special base today," he said to them.

The three Beast Tamers nodded their heads.

"We obey your orders, Second Master," the middle-aged man said. He then led the other two out of the building.

After the three of them left, Oren walked up to his team members. He looked at everyone.

He hadn’t expected them all to wait for him. They had missed doing their tasks, and their scores had likely hit the bottom as well.

His expression eased. His friends had sacrificed their scores for him.

"Guys, I can handle this matter. There is no need for you to ignore your missions," Oren said to them.

His friends smiled.

A female member said, "We are final-year students, and we have already reached Tier-6 strength. These score results don’t make any big difference."

The others echoed the same opinion.

"Alright, this person is related to the special base. We cannot use our family name or University name. Even if there is a confrontation, we should deal with him in person," Oren said.

Hearing that, the others felt he was being reasonable. The mention of the special base gave them pause for a few seconds.

They knew only talented Beast Tamers could enter the special base. It showed just how exceptional the Beast Tamer named Jeremy Night was.

They could understand a little why the young man had ignored Oren. If they had been from the special base, they might have done the same.

But they didn’t dare to say it in front of their friend Oren.
