Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand

Recently, I've been assigned a mentor, but they haven't even shown their face.

"Well, why don't you ask some second-year students if they'd be willing to battle you?" The advisor in charge of the ranking competition shrugged helplessly and said.

If this keeps up, the academy might issue him an immunity certificate.

After some thought, the advisor glanced at the Little Fox and said, "The juvenile group is quite popular with new students lately, you could give it a try too."

The juvenile group refers to the Second Spirit Beast.

Many students now, like Lin Chen, have contracted a new Spirit Beast and after nurturing it for a while, naturally can't suppress their joy and want to test the power of the new Spirit Beast.

Lin Chen thought about it, and this idea seemed feasible to him.

So he asked the advisor to register his Flame Fox for the challenge, and as expected, the challenge invitations for Lin Chen were once again flooded.

Although these new students didn't dare challenge Xiaobai, they were still envious of Lin Chen's points.

Currently, Lin Chen is at Level 6 points, so winning would earn them six points.

"I can't beat his freakish bull, but handling the Flame Fox should be easy, right?"

"Exactly, contracting a Mortal Beast and daring to show it, he's basically giving away points."

The students were confident and eager to prove themselves.

Finally, Lin Chen accepted quite a few challenge invitations, selecting a few representative ones apart from the first.

Because Lin Chen was concerned...

There might be people who won't battle the Little Fox in the future.

Therefore, he decided to first accept a few for storage, letting the Little Fox slowly tackle them this month while honing its battle skills.

....

On the day of the Little Fox's debut battle, the crowd was overwhelming.

Since the last relic event, the relation between official slots and connection slots seemed to have eased quite a bit.

The reason being the students two years senior were observing, feeling that this batch of new students was united.

In light of this, they felt embarrassed to continue arguing.

After all, although Lin Chen and Fang You had yet to settle their scores, everyone could see that Lin Chen seemed to have the upper hand.

This time, the student challenging Lin Chen was named Cheng Jin, whose Second Spirit Beast was the Cloud-Breaking Beast, water attribute, high-grade Spirit Transformation.

When Cheng Jin appeared, the students were envious and buzzing with discussion.

"Water naturally counters fire, and it's of a higher quality level."

"Envy, now he can boast that he defeated the new number one freshman."

"I was just one second too late, missed it, lined up second, it's killing me."

"Don't celebrate too soon, Lin Chen's First Spirit Beast was so strong, the Second Spirit Beast probably won't be too bad either."

"Come off it, the Flame Fox isn't even some kind of mutated species."

"Don't trust his bluffs, he's also on Lin Chen's chosen list, his turn is next."

That student, having been exposed, chuckled gleefully, and others cast envious looks his way.

Meanwhile, Cheng Jin stepped forward to verify the information with the referee senior.

"Looks like today's a battle of mages," the referee said with a chuckle after checking.

Sometimes, after watching high-level Spirit Beasts fight for so long, watching low-level Spirit Beasts pecking at each other can also be enjoyable.

However...

Why did Lin Chen choose a Mortal Beast-level Spirit Beast?

Generally, after becoming an Entry-Level Beastmaster, people opt for higher quality ones.

After all, evolution is a gamble.

"Start when you're ready," the referee said.

The Little Fox stood beside Lin Chen, trying hard to keep its posture upright.

The Cloud-Breaking Beast, simply put, was like an octopus, much larger than the Little Fox, and with its many tentacles, its aura was much stronger than the Little Fox's.

Lin Chen noticed the tension in the Little Fox's heart and said, "Don't just jump in and activate True Flame Mode, then throw skills around."

The Little Fox was taken aback, wondering how Lin Chen knew its thoughts.

Lin Chen broke into a sweat but didn't blame it because, in battle, one must not hold back...

If you have strength but don't use it, you're just asking for a reversal.

But things are different now; it's a ranking competition here, winning or losing won't kill you.

Plus, Lin Chen intends to train the Little Fox in one particular direction:

Map Control Mage.
