Beast Taming: the More the Better

Qian Yi was dissatisfied. A battle that required less than three seconds, yet it needed an entire sixty-second wait? Who was being underestimated here?

However, no matter what, the waiting time was still necessary.

But the scene of the wind blowing over the low grass revealing sheep and cattle hadn't changed at all.

Su Ping watched with interest as the Forest Wolf was slain by the Paperman with one strike. From the texture of that strike, the virtually formed Forest Wolf seemed no different from any other creature. It didn't resemble a lifeless object formed by condensation. This realism extended to the entwining tree vines. Furthermore, from his recent perception, Su Ping felt that even the strangling vines truly possessed combat power. Was this Forest Wolf really a phantom formed by condensation?

However, as the countdown ended, the corpse of the Forest Wolf turned into particles of light and slowly vanished without a trace. It was as if the illusion had been truly punctured.

This is very interesting, Su Ping thought. I even want to extend my spiritual power to sense around, like Feifei did, to see what's really happening. It's just that such actions might disrupt the Paperman's challenge in the Trial Tower. Seeing the enthusiastic Paperman, there's no need for me to do so. Yet, these projected creatures are essentially different from those fake and weak phantoms with no combat power at all. I can ask Aunt Qin about it later.

This massive Mechanical Trial Tower doesn't seem to be just a trial tower, Su Ping mused. At this moment, I have every reason to suspect that it's related to Mechanical Pet Beasts. However, given that this is the Magic Capital Advanced Beast-Taming Academy, one of the most renowned institutions nationwide and currently overseen by Sang Sheng, possessing such capabilities is to be expected.

Su Ping's random thoughts didn't slow down time; the sixty seconds passed slowly.

With the end of the final countdown, Qian Yi's posture was restored.

Then, the mechanical voice appeared in his ear:

[Second trial wave, Trial Subject: Great Horned Bull, Energy Level: Elite Level Ten, Race Limit: Elite Level Ten]

The Pet Beasts had indeed changed, but the scene was still that of a grassland battlefield.

The Great Horned Bull, with no special Attributes, was a Normal-type Pet Beast with immense strength. It was a type of Pet Beast found on the grasslands and one of the most terrifying herds at Low-levels.

However, here, with only one appearing, it didn't cause Qian Yi the slightest hindrance!

By the second wave, the trial's Energy Level had already reached Elite Peak, without even increasing Qian Yi's usage time!

That thunderous One-Word Electric Sword, against a lone, equal-level opponent, seemed unbeatable!

In ancient times, there was the story of Pao Ding, the skillful butcher who dismembered oxen with incredible ease.

For Qian Yi, it was even simpler, quicker than with the previous Forest Wolf.

Because as soon as the Great Horned Bull appeared, it launched its attack Skill, 'Savage Charge.'

And then...

Its Savage Charge ended with the Great Horned Bull being cleaved in half down the middle!

In Qian Yi's hands, paper had become the sharpest weapon.

Thus, still accompanied by Qian Yi's familiar lament of invincible loneliness, the corpse turned into light points and disappeared:

[Second trial passed, time taken: 2.12 seconds. The third trial will start after 60 seconds, prepare yourself, 60, 59,...]

[Third trial passed, time taken: 2.84 seconds. The fourth trial will start after 60 seconds, prepare yourself, 60, 59,...]

[Fourth trial passed, time taken: 2.53 seconds. The fifth trial will start after 60 seconds, prepare yourself, 60, 59,...]

From the first to the fourth wave, not a single opponent managed to extend the Paperman's battle beyond three seconds from start to finish. The reason it always stayed within that timeframe was merely the distance between the opponents when they spawned.

Defeating the opponents in the first four waves of the Trial Tower, including the intervals, took less than five minutes!

A smile appeared on Su Ping's lips.

Qian Yi's strength is definitely incomparable to any common Pet Beast of the same Level, he thought. Because it isn't just Qian Yi! With the effects of the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas coming into play, what do those three swords in its hands represent? They represent a total of nine elementally evolved Papermen! As well as a strength enhancement where 1+1>2.

It was Su Ping's fortune to encounter a Pet Beast like Qian Yi, but it was also the luckiest thing for Qian Yi to meet Su Ping. Only in Su Ping's hands could the Paperman's potential be elevated to such a degree. And yet, Su Ping knew that even the strength the Paperman was currently demonstrating wasn't its full capacity.

Whether it's Qian Yi or the Paperman type in general, both possess even greater potential and a much broader scope for future development. Such effortless ease... But by the time of the fifth wave, it seems as if that ease might disappear? The fifth wave is clearly a relatively difficult challenge in this kind of battle!

[Fifth trial wave, Trial Subjects: Forest Wolf, Great Horned Bull, Willow Leaf Mantis, Energy Levels: Elite Level Eight, Elite Level Ten, Elite Level Ten!]

That's right, Su Ping registered. The terrain is still that of the grassland. But this time, the creatures that appeared aren't the solitary Pet Beasts from earlier waves; instead, it's the Pet Beasts from the first, second, and fourth waves all appearing together! One against three! And three of them are Pet Beasts that have genuinely reached Elite Peak. Undoubtedly, this will be an extremely difficult confrontation for any Pet Beast of that Realm.
