332 Black Donkey Versus White Donkey (2/2)

They exchanged a round of pleasantries before making a swift departure from the port and heading towards the area where the Baole Cannons were being assembled. Wang Baole walked alongside Chen Feng and answered all of Chen Feng's questions regarding the cannons with ease. He took careful note of his behavior and made sure to be half a step behind Chen Feng at all times. He maintained a humble attitude.

”General Chen, the key to the composite Baole Cannon lies in the interconnectivity of its interior inscriptions… especially inscriptions in groups seven and eight. Those inscriptions control the absorption of Spirit Qi.” Wang Baole had a smile on his face. As he walked, he answered Chen Feng's questions and shared the inner workings and structure of the Baole Cannon.

The military officers behind the pair withdrew their discreet stares at Wang Baole's donkey and instead turned towards the pair before them. They sighed and marveled at Wang Baole's social skills. He didn't show off, nor brag. However, he wasn't overly reserved either. He displayed the perfect balance between humility and pride while showing the utmost respect for the military.

This kid is kind of interesting.Chen Feng smiled as he looked at Wang Baole. He was pleased with what he saw. The party walked through building after building and soon approached the camp where the Baole Cannons were awaiting assembly.

As they walked, many warriors they passed stopped and saluted the party. They also secretly eyed Wang Baole's donkey.

Wang Baole noticed the stares and found them odd, but he still felt slightly pleased. The donkey seemed proud as well and raised its head high and trotted along happily.

Their destination soon appeared before them. It was then that seven to eight young military officers walked out from a pavilion slightly away from the party. They were all conversing with one another. In the middle of the group was a black-haired youth. He stood tall and was handsome, and he had a resolute look in his starlit eyes.

He wore a purple-colored military uniform, which brought out his striking features. His eyes, especially, had a deep, unfathomable look in them, and he exuded a presence that was beyond his age. If one took a careful look, one might even sense a deeper air of violence that he had concealed. The young man drew all attention away and towards him just by standing there.

The young man was… Kong Dao, who had come from the Sea of Beasts and had been adopted by the current Federation President Duan Muque as his godson!

Besides the military officers who had gathered around him, he had beside him… a donkey!

The donkey was white in color. It looked striking and powerful and exuded an air of purity and holiness, and exuded cultivation energy at the fourth-stage of the True Breath realm. Both its appearance and presence were extraordinary.

Kong Dao and company instantly noticed Chen Feng, Wang Baole, and the others. The former younger officers immediately became serious and greeted the latter respectfully. Kong Dao's eyes fell on Wang Baole, a frown appearing on his brow. He didn't say anything though, merely greeted Chen Feng.

”It's Kong Dao. Baole, you and Kong Dao are both members of the Federation's hundred seedlings. You should know each other.” Chen Feng paid little attention to the greetings he had received earlier. However, a smile appeared on his face when he saw Kong Dao. He nodded at Kong Dao. His eyes swept across Kong Dao's white donkey and then glanced at Wang Baole's black donkey…

He wasn't the only one. The officers behind Chen Feng and Kong Dao also couldn't help themselves as they gave both Wang Baole's and Kong Dao's donkeys a quick glance.

This was the first time Wang Baole was seeing Kong Dao and the white donkey at his side. He froze at the sight, and his eyes widened.

His monster egg hatched too?Wang Baole took a closer look and was certain that they were the same breed. He couldn't help the sudden frustration and annoyance he was feeling.

Anyone could see the difference in power between his black donkey and Kong Dao's white donkey at a single glance. His donkey not only looked perverse and ugly, but its cultivation couldn't compare to Kong Dao's donkey either. This displeased Wang Baole. He sighed. He couldn't help wonder if this was due to his own bad luck, or if the military instructor had been biased when distributing the eggs then.

I was wondering why these people were eyeing the donkey throughout the trip. They were comparing the two donkeys…Wang Baole felt slightly unhappy. The black donkey was stunned as it stared at the white donkey in shock. Then, its eyes widened, and a fierce light shone in its eyes. It seemed overjoyed, and it dashed out from behind Wang Baole, braying, and raced towards the white donkey.
