"150 points, perfect scores across the board, it's unbelievable!"
"Silent command, instant kill of a Bronze Rank One, damn, am I seeing this right?"
"This is insane, is he really just a rookie Beast Tamer?"
"He must be cheating, definitely!"
"..."
When the Beast Battle Preliminary Test ended.
And the results were announced.
All the students were utterly shocked by Su Muchen's outstanding performance.
In fact, they had already known that Su Muchen would be impressive.
After all, someone who could make Yin Hong willingly act as a subordinate, sell Ice Soul Spirits, and contract with a Sacred Qilin Beast couldn't be simple.
But even though many had guessed Su Muchen would be strong.
No one expected him to be this strong!
Before becoming Beast Tamers.
Many thought that reaching Bronze Rank One was easy, something they could achieve effortlessly.
But reality was harsh.
When they truly engaged with beasts and battled against Bronze Rank One beasts.
Many realized their own insignificance and recognized their previous arrogance.
But Su Muchen?
A beast contracted for just four days could instantly kill a Bronze Rank One!
Damn, he's more handsome than Yan Zu, even better than Yan.
He's a self-awakened genius, an incredible Beast Tamer, and wealthy...
Forget it, there's no comparison.
Comparing further would be unbearable.
"Congrats, Brother Chen."
At this moment, Yin Hong approached Su Muchen.
The latter turned his head, "How did you and the Tide Sound Turtle do?"
Hearing this, Yin Hong smiled, "Got lucky, drew a Soft Cute Cat as an opponent."
The Soft Cute Cat, a beast with a cute appearance and highly developed auditory system.
It's extremely sensitive to loud noises, and upon hearing them, its ears perk up, it trembles all over, and it seeks a place to hide.
And the Tide Sound Turtle itself has sound-type attributes.
It's highly effective against cute-type beasts like the Soft Cute Cat.
"Before the Soft Cute Cat could use its charm, I had the Tide Sound Turtle retract into its shell to avoid it."
"Its other skills couldn't break through the Tide Sound Turtle's defense, so it just endured and used noise, causing the cat to leave the battle venue on its own."
"Though my final battle score wasn't as high as Brother Chen's, I still got a 98."
Hearing Yin Hong's account of his battle.
Not only Su Muchen, but many surrounding classmates also looked at this big guy with newfound respect.
A talent!
Another talent!
A rookie Beast Tamer knowing the weaknesses of common beasts isn't surprising.
But predicting skills and avoiding them in advance is a technique even many veteran Beast Tamers struggle with. This chapter was taken from g.com without permission.
And the reason he could do this.
Su Muchen knew why.
[Talent: Spirit Perception Insight]
[Effect: Can capture subtle muscle twitches, hair movements, and even faint ripples of spiritual power in the opponent's beast, allowing for early prediction of the opponent's skills.]
...
Su Muchen's Beast Battle Preliminary Test results quickly reached Su Lin, who was still at work.
He didn't even need to pay attention to such matters.
Some smart people eager to advance would take action immediately.
For instance, "The kid's grades are so good, prepared a little gift for him."
Thus, upon hearing the news, Su Lin immediately sent the results to Shangguan Qing in Beijing, as well as Su Qingcang and others.
For this kind of Beast Battle Preliminary Test, they weren't particularly concerned.
After all, it was more like an elementary school exam.
Even if you don't get into a good middle school, you might still get into a good university; there are plenty of opportunities later on.
But their child's excellence, as parents and grandparents, it was impossible not to be happy.
So.
Su Qingcang immediately picked up the phone and called his old friends one by one.
"Hey, Old Li, what are you up to?"
"What? How did you know my grandson scored 150 in the preliminary test?"
"Ah, speaking of which, I remember... the Clear Wind Fruit in your backyard..."
"Alright, alright, it's settled then, we won't stop until we're drunk."
"......"
After a few calls ended.
Su Muchen's grandmother, Lin Huilan, gave her old man a look.
"You, aren't you afraid of ruining the relationship between you and your brothers by doing this?"
Though Lin Huilan scolded him, she knew in her heart.
These old brothers had been friends for decades.
It was all for fun, no one would mind these gains and losses.
Of course.
Everyone knew the main reason for such calls was to show off!
These elderly Beast Tamers, who had spent most of their lives on the path of beast taming.
Their own strength could hardly improve further.
But their competitiveness and desire to compare hadn't diminished with age.
Since they couldn't compete in this area anymore.
Their energy naturally shifted to nurturing their children and grandchildren.
...
"I smile with pride, smile with pride..."
In Magic City, First High School.
Having just finished a meeting and left the conference room, Li Yuntao walked with a spring in his step. The source of this chapter is g.com.
Especially seeing the envious eyes of the surrounding teachers.
Li Yuntao almost started singing.
When he returned to the classroom, he clapped his hands.
Once everyone returned to their seats and quieted down.
"Our class did very well this time, with 14 students scoring over 90."
"Three scored above 98. Su Muchen with a perfect 150, Lin Suxian with 120, and Yin Hong with 98."
"In a week, early college admissions will begin."
"Our class consistently ranks first in cultural subjects across the school, so I suggest those scoring above 90 should give it a try."
"Entering college early and receiving higher-level guidance is undoubtedly a good thing."
"Of course, others shouldn't be discouraged. In the coming month, the school will arrange for professional Beast Tamers to guide everyone."
"Passing the National Unified Exam will also give you a chance to enter your ideal college."
"Alright, I won't say more. You can consider whether to receive systematic guidance at school or have other plans."
"Once you've made your decision, the class monitor can submit it to me for the school's unified arrangement."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuntao left the classroom.
Leaving the students to discuss and decide on their own.
And after all the students discussed with their parents.
When the final statistics came out.
Only a few chose to stay at school.
The reason was simple.
The school's unified guidance was free.
But it was one-to-many.
Often unable to provide more detailed guidance.
And in terms of beast taming, almost all parents wanted their children to go further.
Those with some spare money were willing to spend it to hire experienced Beast Tamers to tutor their children.
And for Su Muchen, having the freedom to act was naturally the best.
But what should he do in the coming days?
If life were a game.
There would be main and side quests.
The side quest of understanding the Young Qilin's skills was complete.
Next, it was time to return to the main quest.
The main quest was to unlock more entries, allowing the second Lifebound Beast within the Ring of Six Paths to hatch.
To unlock entries, he needed to raise his cultivation level.
And to raise his cultivation level, he needed to nurture beasts and receive reversal feeding.
But the Young Qilin didn't need nurturing at all!
Eating, drinking, and living made it stronger.
So, a new side quest was born!
Contract and nurture a second beast!
Using the weaker reversal feeding ratio compared to the Lifebound Beast, he could accelerate his cultivation level.
Thus speeding up the main quest's progress.
That is, unlocking entries and awakening the second Lifebound Beast!
