Eternal Beast Taming Family

When the other team members heard their captain's words, their eyes nearly went black. The one next to him even secretly nudged his back, thinking how presumptuous the captain was.

Chu Shengfan maintained a polite smile, "You might need to ask Master Yang for the answer to that question."

The captain smiled awkwardly and asked Yang Xianshi, "How could an ordinary student like me, who is also the captain of a patrol team, have the guts to do this?"

He handed the jade tablet he had examined back to Chu Shengfan, then stepped aside, saying, "There's no problem, please go."

He glanced at the lotus platform under Chu Shengfan's feet, a hint of envy in his eyes. This new student's treatment was really good. Not only could the lotus platform guide the way on its own, but the protective shield that came with it was probably unbreakable even by ordinary spirit-level source beasts.

After Chu Shengfan thanked them, the lotus platform beneath his feet carried him forward.

The surrounding scenery gradually changed, and the road beneath our feet disappeared at some unknown point.

Instead of the various buildings within the academy, what appeared before them was like being outside the boundary, surrounded by towering mountains covered with lush trees, with only faint glimpses of buildings peeking out from among them.

Upon reaching this point, the lotus platform rose higher, and Chu Shengfan's view became increasingly expansive.

He saw that beyond the towering mountains lay vast plains, deep and tranquil valleys, and shimmering lakes.

It seems that this academy contains all kinds of landscapes, and many ownerless source beasts live freely in these environments.

As for the various human-built structures of the academy, they are scattered across these landscapes in a somewhat orderly fashion, occupying only a small portion of the environment.

The place was so big that it was difficult to even meet a few people from the academy.

The trajectory of the lotus platform's flight seems to have some kind of pattern. It doesn't fly in a straight line towards its destination, but rather circles left and right. Especially when it passes over the academy's man-made buildings, it makes a huge detour, as if it cannot fly over the buildings.

After flying for a long time, and even being chased by some kind of bird-like beast for a moment, the lotus platform beneath his feet gradually slowed down.

Chu Shengfan looked up and saw an extremely tall mountain peak appear before him. The lower half of the mountain was below the clouds, while the upper part was lush and green, as if it were springtime.

As the altitude increases, snow gradually falls in the middle section, while the uppermost layer is covered with a thick layer of ice. A large palace, seemingly made of some kind of ice jade, sits on this mountain.

Looking at the palace, it was basically the same as the one I had seen in the domain built by Master Yang last time.

Perhaps due to the protective shield surrounding the lotus platform, Chu Shengfan did not notice the coldness of the surrounding environment as he got closer to the Ice Jade Palace.

The lotus platform gradually floated at the palace gate. Before Chu Shengfan could observe it closely, the people guarding the palace gate had already warmly greeted him.

The speaker was a young woman dressed in light blue, whose aura was unpredictable, but she seemed to be even stronger than her grandfather.

"Greetings, Your Highness, the Palace Master. The Palace Master sent us here to greet you. Did you encounter any obstacles on your journey?"

Little Princess? Chu Shengfan was stunned. Was that the right way to address her?

"Thank you for your concern, senior. I haven't encountered any major setbacks."

Chu Shengfan felt that his answer should be fine, but to his surprise, the young woman's expression immediately changed, and she quickly bowed.

"Young Palace Master, please don't address me as 'senior.' I cannot accept such a title. You are the second most honored master of Qinghan Mountain. No one else deserves your respectful address except for you."

Chu Shengfan was somewhat at a loss, but he quickly calmed down and accepted it. In other words, the status of this woman, whose spirit level was unknown, in Qinghan Palace was similar to that of the head maids in his own household who had been granted spirit-opening contracts.

Calling her "senior" is indeed inappropriate. "Please rise, and I will look forward to instructing you in the future."

"My name is Su Yi. From now on, I will be in charge of your daily life. You can ask me any questions you may have. Now, let's go see the Palace Master. She has been waiting for a long time in the main hall."

Chu Shengfan firmly stood on the lotus platform on the ground and stepped down. After he stepped down, the lotus platform transformed back into a small ornament and came to Chu Shengfan's waist. The faint protective shield still enveloped his body, helping him resist the omnipresent cold air around him.

Su Yi led the way for Chu Shengfan from one side, saying softly:

"Since this is your first time in the palace, the palace master has gathered all the servants in the entire Qinghan Palace in the main hall, so you will definitely see a lot of people later."

However, you don't need to remember everyone; just remember a few supervisors. If you need anything, go directly to the supervisor. Those at the lower levels were brought in only to prevent them from not recognizing your status and offending you in the future.

Chu Shengfan nodded. Although he was now a contract master of a different rank, his mental strength and memory were much better than ordinary people. He didn't know exactly how many people Su Yi was talking about. If there were hundreds of people, it would indeed be difficult to memorize them all at once.

Seeing Chu Shengfan nod in agreement, Su Yi continued,

"If it's convenient, you can summon your Source Beast now, so that when we get to the main hall, the servants can see what your Source Beast looks like."

This way, they won't be disturbed by the unpleasant servants while playing throughout the palace.

Chu Shengfan thought about it and decided it was acceptable. "Myriad Flower Butterfly Spirit" and "Spiritual Mica" appeared in turn.

Seemingly disliking the cold environment, the "Myriad Flower Butterfly Spirit" landed directly on Chu Shengfan's shoulder as soon as it appeared, and the protective shield naturally spread over its body, blocking out all the cold.

The enormous body of "Lingyuan Yunmu" floated silently behind Chu Shengfan. The palace was tall enough to accommodate the enormous body of "Lingyuan Yunmu", and there was even enough height and width left to accommodate a few more of them.

Su Yi looked at Chu Shengfan's two source beasts, and the surprise in her eyes lasted only a moment before she returned to normal. After all, source beasts that weren't unusual probably wouldn't catch the eye of the palace master.

The two of them continued into the palace, passing by the tall jade pillars and the exquisitely carved dome.

Ahead of them, the view suddenly opened up to a very large platform where many people stood neatly arranged.

These people may be wearing different styles and colors of clothing because of their different statuses.

The most common clothing was white, and the simplest style was long robes or long skirts. There were about two hundred people wearing these clothes, and their cultivation levels were mostly between the lower and upper levels of the different rank.

Following them, a slightly smaller group consisted of people with blue belts around their waists and embroidered with some kind of blue ice lotus pattern. Their cultivation level was probably at the lower or middle level of the Spirit Realm, and there were about forty or fifty of them.

The lowest level was that of people dressed similarly to Su Yi beside him, about a dozen of them, and their cultivation levels were also the highest. Although Chu Shengfan couldn't detect them, he felt that they should not be lower than the upper level of the Spirit Rank.

At this moment, these so-called servants, regardless of their level of cultivation or status, all lowered their heads and lowered their brows, seemingly unaware of the appearance of Chu Shengfan and Su Yi.

At that moment, a gentle voice came from the main hall behind the snow-covered square.

"My disciple, you've arrived?"
