Beast Taming Patrol

Upon entering the Beast Tamer certification hall of the Beast Taming Association, Lin Su was promptly struck by the bustling scene before him, even the naturally people-friendly Qiuqiu couldn't help but shrink its head after seeing the dense crowd and the various pets flying and running about in the hall.

"Meow~ฅ(°ω°)ฅ" (So many people~)

Yesterday was the initial pet allocation time for all high schools in District 32, so there were bound to be many who had successfully formed contracts coming to the Beast Taming Association for certification today. Lin Su quickly realized the reason and shook his head helplessly, "Qiuqiu, it looks like we're going to have to wait a while."

"Meow! (´ω｀)" (No worries!)

This wait turned out to be a full hour.

Finally, Lin Su, holding Qiuqiu, entered a room designed for checking if pets had been contracted. First, his identity was confirmed through iris recognition, then, as asked by a staff member, he placed Qiuqiu into the Beast Taming Space to prove their contract bond.

A pale yellow light pattern slowly emerged, and the staff member responsible for the check couldn't help but utter an "oh" in surprise. "Aren't you a fresh high school graduate from the initial pre-sale distribution of this session? How come your Beast Taming Space is already second-order?"

Lin Su cleared his throat, "Perhaps I have an exceptional talent?"

Staff member: "???"

God damn exceptional talent!

"I bet you secretly practiced meditation before turning eighteen," the staff member shook his head, "That behavior is very dangerous, one misstep could cause problems in the Beast Taming Space, but you're lucky, it doesn't seem like a big issue."

If you say so.

Unable to think of a good reason to explain his Beast Taming Space situation, and since the other person had found a very suitable explanation for him, Lin Su decided to go along with it.

The questions about the rank of the Beast Taming Space didn't linger, and after seeing that Qiuqiu had been placed into the Beast Taming Space by Lin Su, confirming their contract, a delicate alloy badge was quickly handed to him by the staff.

"This is your Beast Tamer Badge, containing a chip that is bound to your identity. It can be used for utilizing contribution points and querying various Beast Tamer messages."

"Okay, okay." Lin Su quickly stepped forward to look at his own official Beast Tamer Badge, a hint of joy spreading across his face. But soon, as if he remembered something, he cleared his throat and asked, "Um… may I ask if an official Beast Tamer gets allocated a communication device equipped with a Beast Encyclopedia and an energy detector?"

"You don't get that here; you can pick it up at the front desk service station in the main hall with your badge."

"Thanks." Lin Su picked up the badge and headed straight for the main hall without hesitation.

The Beast Encyclopedia and energy detector are tools every Beast Tamer needs.

The Beast Encyclopedia contains a lot of data on pets, allowing a Beast Tamer to obtain relevant information after scanning an unknown pet, which is much more detailed than what Lin Su learned in high school.

And the energy detector can measure the pet's normal energy level; whether it is to more accurately assess the state of one's own pet or to gauge the power gap between it and a mystical beast during a battle, both are necessary.

These tools are not exclusive to the Beast Taming Association's Beast Tamers; they are also sold on the market. However, the price of a communication device loaded with these two tools is exorbitant, and Lin Su couldn't afford it.

He had been looking forward to being certified as an official Beast Tamer, and a big part of that was because a newly certified Beast Tamer can get a communication device loaded with a standard Beast Encyclopedia and a precision energy detector for free.

Freebies bring happiness.

With the help of the service desk lady, Lin Su quickly got a brand new communication device and, after transferring his old communication device data to the new one, his old and used device for many years was officially retired.

There were also many Beast Tamers in the main hall, unlike the certification hall where all were apprentice Beast Tamer certifications; the Beast Tamers here varied in strength.

Soon, Lin Su saw a Beast Tamer with a green-crowned hawk perched on his shoulder pass by.

That was a Beast Tamer with a Green Feathered Eagle, judging by the state of the Green Feathered Eagle, it was clearly no longer at a juvenile stage.

Lin Su was intrigued and secretly scanned the Green Feathered Eagle with his newly acquired communication device. The communication device displayed a spinning light ring and quickly the scanning result appeared.

[Serial IAM-0073

Species Name: Green Feathered Eagle

Species Rank: Low-grade Leader Species

Element: Wind

Growth Stage: Elite

Normal Energy Level: 3942P

Talent Skills: Feather Blade Continuous Slash (Core Skill), Tear, Sharp Vision]

This was the detailed data result of that Green Feathered Eagle.

The normal energy level is one way to represent the innate strength of a pet, and can be used as a reference for power, P is its unit, pronounced Bo Wa, named to honor the scientist who discovered the Beast Taming Space two hundred years ago.

The Talent Skills listed are the innate skills of the species, which does not mean that the pet can only perform those skills.

After all, the skills taught later vary from pet to pet; those cannot be directly detected.

After a little test run, Lin Su summoned Qiuqiu, who was happily playing in the Beast Taming Space, and scanned its chubby little face, which looked puzzled.

Soon, Qiuqiu's data appeared on Lin Su's communication device.
