“Is it that elf?”
When he came back to his senses, Wu Fuyun immediately looked towards Lil Wan, who was standing on Ye Xuan’s shoulder.
Earlier one, he and many others had felt it clearly.
They knew that that little elf was the reason Ye Xuan had been able to levitate into the air and evade the Amber Dragon’s attack
“That can’t be right. That isn’t an elf. An elf can’t have that kind of power!” Wu Fuyun’s eyes fell on Lil Wan, his eyebrows raised slightly.
However, no matter what kind of beast Lil Wan was, at this moment, everyone in the venue was looking at Ye Xuan differently than before.
Since the cataclysmic shift that had taken place hundreds of years ago, beast tamers who could form a contract with two beasts while at the Apprentice Level were the crème de la crème among geniuses.
At this very moment, everyone finally realized why Ye Xuan had become Jiangzhou University’s specially enrolled student.
In the distance, a sweaty young man who was still training himself and his beast in the corner, even after Ye Xuan and the rest had walked into the Combat Hall, turned around in surprise. “Two beasts… can there really be such a genius in the tiny place of Yunhai City?”
This person was Yang Yiming, the top genius of Yunhai City’s Beast Taming Class—at least before Ye Xuan’s arrival.
Two months ago, he had become a Bronze Beast Tamer.
In spite of that, although he was training in Yunhai City, most of the people knew that he was from the Zhongzhou Prefecture.
After he’d awakened his Beast Taming aptitude, his dream was to join Zhongzhou University.
“Alright, enough.”
At that moment, Wu Fuyun waved his hands and said, “Don’t dawdle here. Go and do whatever it is that you should be doing.
“You still have less than two months before the College Entrance Examination. Even the slightest improvement before the exam will be beneficial to you.
“The same goes to everyone in the eleventh grade. Most of you are still at the Apprentice Level. All of you have the chance to awaken unique talents when you advance to the Dark Iron Level.
“If you can be like Yang Yiming, who awakened a unique talent when he advanced to the Dark Iron Level, and then again when he made it to the Bronze Level, your future achievements may be just as good as his.”
As Wu Fuyun’s words fell, many students’ hearts started thumping loudly. Wu Fuyun’s speech was like chicken soup for the soul, and they felt extremely motivated.
They made up their minds that in the future, they would work twice as hard to train their beasts.
“Unique talents, huh?”
At the same time, Ye Xuan was also roused by what Wu Fuyun had said.
He had known for a long time that, starting from the Apprentice Level, a Beast Tamer had a small chance of awakening a unique talent each time he leveled up.
Generally speaking, the likelihood of this happening depended on the Beast Tamer’s aptitude.
The better the Beast Tamer’s aptitude, the greater the chance he’d awaken a unique talent.
Take Yang Yiming for example.
It was said that when Yang Yiming had leveled up from the Apprentice Level to the Dark Iron level and from the Dark Iron Level to the Bronze Level, he’d awakened a unique talent in both instances.
Because of this, many schools had offered him special placements.
The same went for Zhongzhou University.
However, he didn’t want to be specially enrolled.
On the contrary, his plan was to partake in this year’s College Entrance Examination and get even more benefits after enrolling at Zhonghong University with his excellent test results.
“I wonder if I’ll awaken a unique beast taming talent when I level up to Dark Iron. And if so, what kind of talent would I get?”
Ye Xuan felt a glimmer of anticipation.
He didn’t really know much about Yang Yiming’s past.
He also didn’t know that he was that much of a genius.
He’d learned a little about him a few days ago when he was chatting with Nong Lejia.
He knew that the two talents that Yang Yiming had awakened were “Size Manipulation” and “Heart of Fury,” respectively.
Size Manipulation would allow him to manipulate the size of his beasts. It would work wonders when used in battle.
As for Heart of Fury, it, too, was anything but ordinary.
It was said that this talent allowed a Beast Tamer to send his beasts into a state of Fury after being injured.
All the beast’s attributes could be comprehensively increased.
With that in mind, Ye Xuan couldn’t stop himself from looking at Yang Yiming, who was in a corner of the hall.
Coincidentally, Yang Yiming turned to look at him at the same time.
Seeing Ye Xuan, Yang Yiming slightly nodded his head and then quickly went back to his training.
Ye Xuan was startled. His eyes lingered for a moment on Yang Yiming before falling on the Dual-Winged White Tiger and the Lightning Swift beside him.
He stared at the two beasts for some time before turning away.
Yang Yiming’s two beasts were said to be default three-stars, which wasn’t that great.
However, coupled with Yang Yiming’s talents, these two beasts would become terrifyingly powerful.
“What’s the matter? Are you envious of him?”
At that moment, Lin Shiru walked over to Ye Xuan and said, “According to my original plan, I was going to wait for you to come out of the Amber Secret Realm before helping you contract a high-level apprentice-level five-star beast.
“Then, once you left the Amber Secret Realm, I was going to spend about twenty days to help it become a Top-Level Apprentice, and then start my other plan, which was to level it up to the Dark Iron Level as soon as possible, and let it help you advance to the Dark Iron Level as well.”
She’d had everything planned for me…
Ye Xuan was astonished.
If he hadn’t contracted Tyrannosaur in the Amber Secret Realm and hadn’t had the Beast Editor to use on him, Lin Shiru’s plan would have been the fastest way to cultivate.
With that in mind, Ye Xuan asked out of curiosity, “What about now?”
Pushing up her glasses with one hand, Lin Shiru said, “You can go home now.”
“Huh?” Ye Xuan was confused.
“You’ve already trained for quite some time. It’s time for you to go home and see your parents.” Lin Shiru smiled gently and said, “Come back tomorrow.
“I’ll be taking you to a place that can help your Tyrannosaurus advance to the Dark Iron Level as soon as possible.”
Advance to the Dark Iron Level?
Ye Xuan’s eyes immediately lit up when he heard this.
If Tyrannosaur were to level up to the Dark Iron Level, he would definitely receive Reverse Nourishment from him.
In that way, he wouldn’t be too far away from becoming a Dark Iron Beast Tamer.
“Okay, Miss Lin. I’ll be going home now. I’ll be back early tomorrow,” Ye Xuan said to Lin Shiru.
“Alright, get going. It just so happens that I’m free today, so I can give you a ride.”
Lin Shiru combed her fingers through her hair, then walked out on her high heels.
In terms of her appearance and temperament, it wouldn’t be at all excessive to use the words dignified, beautiful, and generous to describe her.
At the same time, she had a remarkably good figure, which was accentuated by her white blouse, black skirt, and black stockings, which were skin tight. Ye Xuan didn’t dare to let his eyes linger on her for too long.
“Oh, okay…” Ye Xuan said, and quickly followed Lin Shiru.
As of now, he still didn’t know what Lin Shiru’s beast taming level was.
As for her age, he had even less of a reason to know that.
Though judging by her appearance, Lin Shiru looked to be in her twenties or thirties.
But as Beast Tamers advanced in level, their appearance could remain unchanged.
Hence, based solely on appearance, he had no way of guessing Lin Shiru’s age.
However, Ye Xuan speculated that since she was a tutor at Jiangzhou University, she couldn’t be that young.
“When you go home, you can watch more combat videos of Amber Dragons.” On the road, Lin Shiru said while driving, “The place I’m going to take you to this time is very far away, and you’ll have to go through many battles as well.
“Of course, if everything goes as planned, you and your Tyrannosaurus will advance to the Dark Iron Level very quickly.”
I’ll level up very quickly, huh?
Ye Xuan was excited.
Once he advanced to the Dark Iron Level, he would be able to contract new beasts.
Moreover, based on the experiences of his Beast Tamer predecessors, those that could already contract two beasts while at the Apprentice Level had a one-third chance of getting two more beasts each time they leveled up.
His Beast Taming Aptitude was at the Mythic Level.
So the likelihood of this happening was probably even greater.
