Eternal Beast Taming Family

The Beast Academy is still built on one side of the foot of Wandao Mountain. Compared to before, the current Beast Academy is terrifying in terms of both the number of source beasts and the area it occupies.

It occupies almost half of the foothills of Wandao Mountain. It not only occupies the real land, but also some secret spaces specially built by the Mortal Tree of All Beings, where some source beasts with special environmental requirements live.

For example, the Silverscaled Spiny Dragon, the Three-Headed Soul-Chasing Shark, and the Spirit-Guiding Lantern Fish, which like to live on the seabed...

There are also the Icefield Bear, the Lone Wolf of the Cold Night, and the Three-Tailed Ice Moon Fox, all living on the ice plains...

While it is generally said that source beasts can survive in such normal mountainous environments, a more suitable environment would be quite beneficial to their growth.

These source beasts have also progressed from the mortal rank to the evolutionary rank. If it weren't for the token issued by the Chu family and the assistance of several evolutionary rank officials, Lin Zixu would have had a hard time managing such a large beast academy.

He had just arrived at a building at the entrance of the Beast Academy, intending to first go to the council hall and meet with several subordinates to coordinate the data and status of the various source beasts.

An official who looked like a secretary immediately came over. "Dean, have people arrived from the mountain?"

"Mountain" was a code word used by the Chu family's subordinates. They couldn't directly refer to the Chu family, so they used "mountain" as a substitute.

"Oh?" Lin Zixu's eyes showed a hint of surprise. "Who's here?"

"Miss Ling, you have a child who looks about three or four years old with you. I'll have them wait in your office first."

"A three- or four-year-old child?"

Lin Zixu was even more puzzled. A few months ago, a newborn was indeed born into the Chu family, but it had only been a few months. Where did this three- or four-year-old child come from? Could it be that the Chu family has some relatives living elsewhere?

However, he didn't ask any more questions. He figured he would find out once he went to see for himself. He waved his hand and dismissed the secretary who had delivered the message.

Upon arriving at his office, Lin Zixu gently knocked on the door.

"Come in." A clear female voice came from inside.

Lin Zixu pushed open the door and went inside, and sure enough, he saw Chu Daoling playing with a three- or four-year-old boy.

"Miss Ling, who is this?" Lin Zixu took a few steps closer, squatted down slightly, and looked at the bright-looking boy.

Chu Daoling covered her mouth and chuckled a few times. "I knew you wouldn't recognize Uncle Lin. His name is Chu Daoyan."

"Young Master Yan?" Lin Zixu was genuinely surprised. "Wait... Young Master Yan is only three or four months old, right? How come he looks like he's three or four years old?"

Chu Daoling smiled and said, "Dao Yan is naturally extraordinary, so it's normal for him to have some special qualities."

He's growing very fast, so my grandfather asked me to accompany him to the Beast Academy to select a few Source Beasts for him to raise.

Lin Zixu quickly accepted the news, and a Dream Spirit appeared beside him. This was a feature added to the Dream Realm after a version update a long time ago.

It is the Dream Spirit Assistant that Chu Shengyu created by extending the power of the Dream Realm into reality based on Chu Zu's suggestion, enabling the holder to use some of the functions of the Dream Realm in the real world.

For example, it can transmit messages, record data, or query information. Overall, it is somewhat like Chu Mu's "cell phone" or "portable computer" before his transmigration.

However, this feature was not widely adopted in the two dynasties, since using a Dream Spirit was too expensive, requiring daily feeding with spiritual plants from the Dream Realm, and also incurring high rental fees.

Over time, this amount to an astronomical sum, so only a very small number of powerful figures in major factions are willing to keep one.

Lin Zixu's assistant, Mengling, was not someone he had raised himself; rather, it was a gift from Chu Shengyu. It was round and chubby.

A pair of enormous ears flapped incessantly in the air, as if they also functioned as wings.

"Miss Ling, do you have any specific requirements for the Source Beast?"

Chu Daoling patted Chu Daoyan's head, thought for a moment and said, "First of all, his aptitude cannot be lower than that of the extraordinary; secondly, his temper should be a little mild; and thirdly, we should exclude source beasts such as spirit plants and birds."

In terms of size, it is best not to exceed 100 meters in length. If the person has the ability to multiply their body size, this condition is no longer valid.

"And for now, the cultivation level is between the Spirit Rank and the Domain Rank. Let's just consider these conditions."

As Meng Ling floated in the air, she listened to Chu Daoling's list of conditions, a thoughtful look appearing in her eyes. Then, she gently waved her hairy hand with only three fingers in the air.

A light screen composed of dreamlike power took shape, and on the light screen, the names of some source beasts, their rough information, and their corresponding three-dimensional images appeared in the air.

"Among the 37,436 source beasts in the current Beast Academy, a total of 4,527 have been screened to meet your criteria. These are all source beast information that meets the criteria."

Lin Zixu glanced at them twice. "Xiaomeng, arrange them in order of aptitude and rarity."

The Dream Spirit Assistant named Xiaomeng nodded slightly, waved her hand again, and the information that had appeared changed once more, and the first Source Beast that appeared also underwent a huge change.

Chu Daoling then carefully began to peruse the document.

"Source Beast: Dawn Light Deer"

Currently existing: Two

Realm: One Spirit Rank, One Other Rank

Qualification: Two extraordinary ones

Racial traits: Light and spatial attributes, possessing large-area damage and healing skills.

Position: Lower Grade A

The Dawn Deer, standing over two meters tall, is entirely white jade-colored, with a glass-like texture.

Its two large horns on its head emit a faint glow at all times, making it look quite appealing.

However, having seen many different kinds of source beasts, Chu Daoling was not swayed by their appearance advantage at all, and instead scrutinized them with a critical eye.

"This kind of source beast can be rated as Grade A?"

Lin Zixu smiled helplessly, "Miss Ling, one reason why this source beast can be classified as this grade is its quantity. There are only two such source beasts in the entire Beast Academy."

Secondly, it possesses skills across three categories: offense, defense, spatial manipulation, and healing. If it weren't for its insufficient cultivation level, the appraisers would probably have classified it as a mid-tier (A-grade).

Chu Daoling shook his head slightly, "There's no need to display these source beasts that were helped up by treatment. Medicine King Valley has already prepared them for Xiao Yan."

Lin Zixu was somewhat helpless. The Medicine King Valley might not be as good as the Beast Academy in terms of other types of source beasts, but in terms of medicinal beasts, it was probably unmatched by any other dynasty or even the surrounding dynasties.

Moreover, some time ago, he went to Medicine King Valley, where the "Ancient Medicine King Tree" continuously cascaded down medicinal energy like a river, and its Dao essence trembled constantly.

It's estimated that it won't be long before Medicine King Valley is renamed Medicine Emperor Valley.

Mengling Assistant changed the information again as requested by Chu Daoling.

"Now only 1,265 kinds remain."

The information on the virtual panel has changed significantly again.
