Eternal Beast Taming Family

Chu Daoling's gaze fell once again on the light screen in the air.

Source Beast: Cloud Sea Spirit Whale

Currently existing: six

Realm: Two at the Domain Rank, four at the Spirit Rank

Qualifications: Three perfect, two extraordinary, one hundred and one hundred.

Racial Characteristics: Spirit whales living in the sea of ​​clouds can change their size at will. The largest of the Domain Rank whales can reach nearly 500 meters in length. They are skilled in spatial, cloud, and water-related skills. They have a gentle personality but a huge appetite.

Rating: Grade A (Medium).

Upon seeing the first Origin Beast, Chu Daoling nodded slightly. This Cloud Sea Spirit Whale seemed to meet her requirements.

"The Cloud Sea Spirit Whale brought over those two with perfect aptitude. Let's see them in person later."

The Dream Spirit Assistant tapped in the air, and a message was sent out, while Chu Daoling's gaze remained fixed on the light screen.

And with a slight lift of her hand, a koi carp shimmering with colorful light appeared in the air, surrounded by auspicious clouds.

However, this rare and auspicious beast circled around Chu Daoyan, teasing and playing with him, so that he wouldn't have to stay there any longer.

Source Beast: Sun Dog

Currently existing: one

Realm: One of the different tiers

Qualifications: Unknown

Racial Characteristics: Based on current observations, it loves sunlight. At night, its body radiates a glow indistinguishable from the sunlight, and even at the higher levels, many spirit-level source beasts fear its power. However, since arriving at the Beast Academy, it has not consumed any spiritual food, seemingly content with just sunlight. More information requires further investigation.

Rating: Tentatively set at Lower A.

Upon seeing the researchers' description of the Radiant Sun Dog in the Beast Academy, Chu Daoling immediately became interested. She had never seen a source beast with this name before.

"Send this Sunbeam Dog over as well."

Dream Spirit Assistant sent out another message.

Chu Daoling read through the information very quickly, and the information on the screen kept changing. When she encountered something that met her requirements, she would stop and have Mengling send over a few of the most outstanding ones for her to choose from.

Before long, she had read most of the information on the screen. After passing through the previous hundred or so Grade A ratings, she had now reached the lower Grade B rating.

Here, they are all people who are rarely seen even among the powerful families of those dynasties, but are too ordinary for the Chu family.

However, Chu Daoling knew that those seemingly ordinary source beasts might have very special evolutionary paths after being investigated by Chu Zu.

According to the current ranking system of the Beast Academy, even the Chu family's most iconic source beast, the predecessor of "Elemental Spirit" "Spiritual Mica", can only get a mid-to-high grade B rating here.

However, thanks to the evolutionary path developed by Chu Zu, the "Elemental Spirit," a source beast with all attributes and versatility, is now on the top.

However, the "Elemental Spirit" is a source beast that the Chu family keeps for themselves and will not be easily passed on. Only those who have made great contributions to the Chu family or have a close relationship with the family can obtain it.

For example, the former dean of Qianling Academy once protected two emperors of the Chu family, and he and his two sons were given the opportunity to enter the Chu family's private academy to contract source beasts.

Chu Daoling remembered that the three source beasts they chose were two "Elemental Spirits" and one "Myriad Flower Butterfly Mother," both of which were source beasts that the Chu family kept for themselves.

Now she comes to this beast academy, which frequently engages in foreign trade, for two reasons: first, to see if there are any suitable ones for Dao Yan; and second, to see if there are any novel source beasts, and if so, if there are any source beasts suitable to bring into the Chu family's private academy.

After all, the Chu family's private courtyard often needs to add fresh bloodlines, and the Chu family members will not only contract with a limited number of source beasts.

These were all relatively ordinary source beasts. Chu Daoling only glanced at them briefly, and if there was nothing special about them, she moved on until a strange source beast's information caught her eye.

Source Beast: Unknown

Currently existing: one

Realm: One of the different tiers

Qualifications: Unknown

Racial characteristics: This source beast was sent from Star Moon City. Although it has a life force, it is usually like a stubborn rock, allowing other source beasts to beat and grind it. However, its body is really hard. Someone once tried to form a contract with it, but he couldn't even penetrate its mental barrier.

Rating: Upper C (tentative). Very little information is available about this source beast. A final rating will be determined after further observation.

The appearance of this source beast was displayed on the light screen. It was bluish-gray all over, with a flat body, somewhat resembling a turtle, but lacking the curvature of a turtle's shell.

Its back was extremely flat, making it difficult to distinguish the front from the back of its body. Its limbs were also very short, and its head was not even present on its body.

Chu Daoling stared at the image of the source beast for a long time, and finally silently concluded in her heart that this source beast was definitely the ugliest she had ever seen.

She's not usually curious about ugly people, but she absolutely has to see this ugly one in person.

So, seeing Lin Zixu's complicated expression, Chu Daoling said firmly to Mengling, "Send this Origin Beast over as well."

An hour later, Chu Daoling, Lin Zixu and the other two appeared in a spacious courtyard next to the Beast Academy's office building.

All the source beasts that Chu Daoling had just selected have been delivered, and some of them even still smell of soap after being washed.

Many staff members of the Beast Academy were inside, looking after the source beasts that had been brought there, who seemed somewhat uneasy or curious.

Chu Daoling ultimately selected dozens of source beasts, totaling nearly a hundred.

In the courtyard at this moment,

A small whale floated in mid-air, its smooth body lines hidden in the clouds, only its moist eyes visible as it observed its surroundings.

There was a dog-like beast, nearly as tall as a person, that shone with a faint golden halo under the sunlight. It occupied a corner of the courtyard and looked somewhat aloof.

It existed like an ordinary bluestone, being trampled on by numerous source beasts, like a useless punching bag.

There were also silvery dragons with three heads, which swirled and circled in the air. If you got too close, you could almost feel the sharp aura they were constantly releasing.

Spirit butterflies also hovered and danced in the air, scattering colorful clouds and flowing light, forming a beautiful picture, as if they were on a different level from the other source beasts.

The various source beasts each have their own appearance and movements.

Most of these source beasts are from the Spirit and Domain realms and have already developed spiritual intelligence. The staff here had already communicated with them in advance on the way here.

It is said that a great figure from the mountain has come to select source beasts, and they are to show their abilities. If they are selected, they will enjoy endless cultivation resources.

So when Chu Daoling led Chu Daoyan into this courtyard, they saw this scene of "competing in beauty and splendor".

From the moment she entered the courtyard, Chu Daoling used the talent bestowed upon her by Chu Ancestor, and a dense array of information about these source beasts fell into her eyes.

With the detailed information available, Chu Daoling believed that the appraisals made by the appraisers in the Beast Academy were generally fair. However, since the information was derived from observing the habits of the source beasts, there were still some slight deviations.

Some source beasts are not actually as highly regarded as those appraisers do. For example, the "Cloud Sea Spirit Whale" hidden in the clouds and mist—most of the information about it is similar to what the appraisers describe.

However, these source beasts actually have a racial flaw: before fully reaching adulthood, they need to stay in the sea of ​​clouds for a long time; otherwise, their skin's defensive capabilities will be greatly weakened after they reach adulthood.

Moreover, its growth process is extremely slow, often taking hundreds of years, and it enters a dormant state for a long time each time it grows.

After examining these hidden racial characteristics, Chu Daoling ruled out this type of source beast from his choices, as Dao Yan's rapid growth was definitely incompatible with it.

Therefore, Chu Daoling only glanced at the "Cloud Sea Spirit Whale" before looking away to examine the information of the other source beasts.

Upon arriving here, Chu Daoyan's gaze was no longer solely fixed on the "Crystal Auspicious Cloud Carp," but lingered on the numerous source beasts in the courtyard.

After observing for a moment, he took a few quick, still unsteady steps and began to move slowly through the courtyard.

Although Chu Daoling was quickly checking the information in the courtyard, she kept a sliver of her attention on Chu Daoyan.

Seeing Dao Yan's actions, Chu Daoling quickly focused most of his attention on him, wanting to see which source beast he was more interested in now.

There was even a slight sense of anticipation in my heart, a feeling akin to watching a child who hasn't yet developed their intelligence undergo a "first birthday celebration."

Although Chu Daoyan's steps were unsteady, his goal seemed very firm. He kept moving straight in one direction, and even the fluttering butterflies around him did not shake his direction.

Chu Daoling looked in the direction he was heading. There were quite a few source beasts along the way, including a chubby bear-like source beast sitting on the ground, and a spirit cat with purple spirit patterns all over its body...

However, Chu Daoyan swept past these source beasts one by one, while the staff watching over them were extremely nervous.

Putting aside who this young master chooses, they are afraid that some source beasts might suddenly act strangely and frighten him.

As Chu Daoyan took his steps, the number of source beasts in front of him decreased, until finally only one source beast remained guarding a corner of the courtyard not far ahead.

It was the "Radiant Sun Dog" that caused the surrounding source beasts to unconsciously avoid it.

All the information about this source beast immediately appeared in Chu Daoling's eyes.

Source Beast: Sun Dog

Level: upper spiritual level

Qualification: Perfect

Skills: 1. Radiant Sun (Position): The individual is Radiant Sun. External energy entering the body will be actively transformed into Radiant Sun spiritual power, and the individual will constantly radiate Radiant Sunlight, scorching all shadows that appear around them. All of the individual's light attribute skills will be greatly enhanced.

2. Radiant Sun True Fire: The Radiant Sun Dog may attach itself to its body surface or actively spew out large amounts of Radiant Sun True Fire. This flame is of extremely high rank and can burn using energy of most attributes as fuel, and it greatly enhances the Radiant Sun Dog's basic attributes.

3. Soaring Golden Sun: Condenses and summons a golden orb of light that floats in the low sky. Under the sunlight, the Sunhound will continuously gain energy restoration and healing effects, and the Golden Sun will continuously unleash scorching beams of light to strike other targets.

5. External Avatar: Condense external avatars, which will possess the skills of Radiant Sun Fire and Light Wheel, and gain half of the original body's physical attributes.

Racial Traits: Sunhounds love light and abhor darkness. They will involuntarily become hostile when encountering Shadow-attribute source beasts, and they only consume items related to the Light attribute (ores, spiritual plants, etc.)

Upon seeing its specific information, Chu Daoling's eyes involuntarily brightened.

This source beast is quite suitable in all aspects; it can attack or defend, and it doesn't seem to be afraid of group battles.

Thinking that if she was truly destined to be with Daoyan, it wouldn't hurt to bring him back to the mountain, she didn't stop Chu Daoyan from continuing to walk towards the "Yaoyang Dog".

Chu Daoyan's steps were firm as he stepped into the area enveloped by the radiance naturally emanating from the "Radiant Sun Dog".

The radiance gradually enveloped Chu Daoyan, as if stirring some kind of Daoist essence deep within him.

An extremely complex Daoist aura containing colorful waves was released from Chu Daoyan's body, like shattered pieces of shimmering glass. The radiance of the "Radiant Sun Dog" naturally merged into the outermost edge of the colorful Daoist aura.

Chu Daoling crossed his arms, a thoughtful look in his eyes. It seemed they were destined to meet.

However, the staff members standing nearby, and even Lin Zixu himself, all showed signs of nervousness.

As if afraid of disturbing something, or as if worried that the somewhat aloof "Yaoyang Dog" might bump into Young Master Yan when they weren't paying attention.

However, their worries were ultimately unnecessary. As if sensing something, the "Radiant Sun Dog" looked at Chu Daoyan with increasingly gentle eyes.

A warm sun gradually rose from its back, and its beams slowly enveloped Chu Daoyan. At this moment, another change occurred on Chu Daoyan. A vertical eye gleaming with golden light slowly split open between his brows, taking in all the golden beams of light that fell upon him.

Seeing this, Chu Daoling seemed to realize something, and in a flash, she appeared beside Chu Daoyan. "No..."

She knelt down, tears welling in her eyes, and placed her hands on Chu Daoyan's arms, saying helplessly to him:

"Hey, why did you just form a contract with them? These source beasts need to be taken back to your parents and grandparents to see. If... I won't be able to explain it to them."

Chu Daoyan looked at Chu Daoling innocently, seemingly unable to understand the meaning behind his words. He tiptoed over Chu Daoling's shoulder to look at the "Yaoyang Dog" behind her and gave a big smile.

The "Yaoyang Dog" had a gentle gaze and moved its long limbs toward Chu Daoyan.

Lin Zixu, standing to the side, understood the meaning behind Chu Daoling's words, and a look of worry appeared on his face. Since this kind of thing happened in their Beast Academy, they would inevitably have to bear some responsibility.

"Miss Ling, this... should I accompany you up the mountain to apologize?"
