Beast Taming: the More the Better

Atop the mechanical vehicle, the driver, glancing at the rather inept pursuers behind, then said, "Principal, those two students are still behind us. Should we use Spatial Teleportation to shake them off?"

Qin Xiaoxue was speechless.

The woman, however, didn't mind these two little geniuses—her granddaughter's friends and roommates—and chuckled, "No need, just head straight for the Trial Tower."

Having said that, the woman pulled up the partition and then turned to look at Qin Xiaoxue, whose eyes sparkled, "Alright, he's already at the academy. Are you in such a hurry?"

Qin Xiaoxue frowned curiously at the woman, "What am I anxious about?"

The woman nodded. Alright, she's not anxious then. She didn't feel like continuing this back-and-forth with her eldest granddaughter on the subject.

Instead, Qin Xiaoxue suddenly felt somewhat guilty and tried to make conversation, "So, Su Ping is heading to the Trial Tower. How many rounds do you think he can clear?"

The woman looked at Qin Xiaoxue with a half-smile, indulging her granddaughter's topic, "At the Elite Level, I just heard from Ah Qin that the little guy's Beast Tamer Realm has already reached Elite Ninth Order, and his Pet Beast is probably not too shabby either. However, I haven't heard much about how impressive the little guy's own Pet Beast is. On the other hand, the Evolutionary Body he brought with him is quite remarkable. I reckon he could make it through around five waves at most."

"Ah?!"

Qin Xiaoxue's eyes lit up. She wasn't concerned about the achievement of clearing the fifth wave, which was definitely not considered high at Magic Capital Academy. Instead, her entire focus was on another matter: "Su Ping's own Realm has already reached Elite Ninth Order? That fast?"

The woman shot her granddaughter a sidelong glance. Did this silly girl even hear everything I just said?

Yet indeed, even she, Lord Sang Sheng, had to admit that the little guy's Realm was improving too quickly. She figured it must have something to do with the Meditation Method she had sent over... right?

But precisely because his Realm improved so rapidly, the little guy's Pet Beast's strength might not be that high. From her perspective, having already cultivated the Wanmu Wolf—to the point where its potential had reached an absurd level—and still needing to practice meditation, where would he find the energy to further improve his own Pet Beasts? After all, it had only been half a year.

Forget three to five years; even one or two years later, the woman believed this little guy's Pet Beast combat strength could reach a fairly impressive level. But as for now...

This was exactly why the woman had made such a request to Aunt Qin, almost as if in jest.

However, Qin Xiaoxue quickly questioned this, "I've seen Su Ping's Pet Beast before. That Forest Wolf is an extremely rare mutated Poison Type. Clearing six or seven waves should be no problem for it, right?"

The woman shot her granddaughter a look, "You, girl, haven't you tried it yourself back then? The Commander Level Trial Tower is different from the Elite Level one! The first ten waves of the Commander Level consist of ordinary combat opponents, whose strength has been enhanced beyond these ten basic ranks. In Magic Capital Beast Taming Academy, why is your Commander Level record at the fifteenth wave, ranking you second? And why is it that one must pass the tenth wave of the Commander Level just to break into the top fifty or so, whereas in the Elite Level rankings, surpassing the tenth wave gets you into the top five?"

Qin Xiaoxue huffed lightly.

She knew this, of course. The Elite Level is lower in rank. And among the genius Beast Tamers entering Magic Capital Beast Taming Academy, some have already advanced to Commander Level upon entry. Even if not, they've reached the Peak of the Elite Level. Such Beast Tamers naturally have Pet Beasts at the highest tier of this Level too!

Naturally, the waves in the Elite Level Trial Tower begin with Elite Peak-level battles right from the first and second waves. And what's even more terrifying is that after clearing the fifth wave, starting from the sixth wave, one might have to face High-level Pet Beast cubs. This difficulty makes the Elite Level Trial Tower rankings even tougher to climb than the Commander Level ones.

In the Commander Level, whether for solo or group rankings, the top twenty have almost all cleared thirteen waves or more. That monster in first place even reached the sixteenth wave. But in the Elite Level, the first place among the top five—also held by that monster—is only the twelfth wave. Aside from this individual, the person in fifth place hasn't even cleared the tenth wave; they ranked fifth simply by enduring the longest past the ten-minute mark, according to the display.

Most students at the Elite Level are stuck around the fifth and seventh wave tiers. If Su Ping only clears the fifth wave, then his previous ranking of around one thousandth place is about right. This was what the woman meant and what she deduced.

However, Qin Xiaoxue didn't care and quickly said, "Su Ping only awakened his Beast Taming Talent half a year ago! That's already quite impressive."

On this point, even the woman didn't deny this, because it was indeed true. In just half a year, he reached this Level and achieved such significant success in Cultivation. If his Pet Beasts' combat strength were also absurdly high, what would be left to say?

The vehicle made its way to the Trial Tower. Ling Xiaoxiao and Xiao Lu followed all the way there as well.

However, as Ling Xiaoxiao and Xiao Lu watched, Qin Xiaoxue and the Principal actually disembarked from the vehicle one after the other and entered the Trial Tower. Seeing this, the two followers were clearly stunned.
