The comments said I was deeply affectionate, I just added points by using an alternate account.

Yin Chen's breath hitched for a second, and he turned to look at the cages next to him.

The six-armed humanoid beetle was staring at him with its compound eyes, its two mantis-like bone blades scraping against the railing, sparks flying.

Can't be bothered.

Yin Chen quickly looked away.

"As long as they are willing to go with you, you can take them out directly without registration or procedures. It's completely legal and compliant," Instructor Jing added.

Honestly, he genuinely wanted to give his family some goodies this time.

These creatures are wasting their talents by staying here.

Even he couldn't possibly control so many high-level demonic beasts at the same time, which is why he wanted to find a good home for these little sweethearts.

Hong Yuan swallowed hard. "Instructor, are you sure you're not trying to use these things to silence us?"

She pointed to the Frostbone Wolf, which was still exhaling shards of ice: "This thing is at least level eight. I tried to feed it something by the teeth, and it complained that my posture wasn't up to par. How can I gain its approval? How can it approve? Does it think I taste good count as approval?"

The barrage of comments scrolled wildly across Chen Guan's retina.

[Haha, Hongyuan does have some self-awareness.]

[The White Tiger is fishing; he knows perfectly well that these two level-five newbies wouldn't even dare approach the cage.]

This is workplace bullying. I'm going to report this student abuse to the Great Wall headquarters.

[Chen Guan: You guys should just spoil him. He's just looking for some fun.]

Instructor Jing rolled his eyes: "You're hopeless. We gave you the chance, but you were useless. Young Master, what about you? I saw you staring at that wolf for a long time. Were you tempted? That thing may be a bit ugly, but it has extremely high mental resistance, which is quite compatible with your elemental skills."

Yin Chen took a half step back: "Thank you for your kindness, instructor, but I can't do it."

He answered decisively, reason telling him that if any creature in the cage sneezed, he could turn it into an abstract painting on the wall.

"Boring." Instructor Jing clicked his tongue. He thought these little creatures were quite cute, so why would he be afraid?

Instructor Jing sat on the metal platform, his two legs, clad in flip-flops, swinging aimlessly.

He sighed as he looked at Yin Chen and Hong Yuan, who seemed to be facing a formidable enemy.

This year's students are of good quality, but they are too timid.

Shifting his gaze, Instructor Jing fixed his eyes on Chen Guan, who was standing at the back.

Chen Guan stood tall and straight, carrying a black metal coffin that was taller than a person on his back. The fifth-tier lightning leopard that had been dominating the chaotic rock forest had now curled up into an electrified ball of yarn, clinging tightly to Chen Guan's feet.

"Little Chen, what about you?" Instructor Jing stroked his chin, his tone undisguisedly suggestive.

"I have a lot of good stuff in this terrarium. Look to the left, there's a six-armed golden beetle. It has high defense and high health, making it perfect as a meat shield. Look to the right, there's the skeleton of a deep-sea ghost fire behemoth. Your outfit paired with an undead mount would be very cool."

"No need," Chen Guan said calmly, pointing to the cheetah at his feet. "It can be used for legwork; that's enough."

Although these eighth-tier demonic beasts are rare, they are not of much use to Chen Guan. Their greatest purpose is probably to sell them for money.

But this is Baihu's collection. If he really sells it, Baihu will be furious with him.

It's not as useful as this leopard; at least it has spatial abilities.

Instructor Jing pursed his lips, muttered "You don't know what's good for you," and then ignored him.

Yin Chen stood in front of the Frostbone Wolf's alloy cage, frost spreading along the bars and freezing the surrounding moisture.

He tightened his collar, and his breath turned into puffs of white mist. Chen Guan's composure rekindled his earlier resolve to back down.

As members of the same team, Chen Guan doesn't even put a fifth-tier demon beast leader in his eyes. As the heir whom his family has nurtured with all their resources, does Yin Chen not even have the courage to try to communicate?

He finally stood here.

Hong Yuan, standing nearby, had no such thoughts. She was simply resentful because Yin Chen had taken the lead, so she gripped her giant axe tightly and wandered between the various cages.

"What's the big deal?" Hong Yuan muttered softly. She didn't like being looked down upon, especially by this kind of vagrant instructor in a Hawaiian shirt, and she certainly didn't want to be a head shorter than Yin Chen.

She stopped in the deepest corner of the basement.

There were no alloy cages here, only a large water tank made of thick bulletproof glass. The water in the tank was green, and a thick layer of duckweed floated on the surface.

Hongyuan leaned closer to the glass, wanting to see what kind of monster was inside.

Several bubbles rose to the surface of the water.

Then, a stone covered in moss slowly floated to the surface of the water, its surface covered with natural golden patterns.

Hong Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and poked the stone with the handle of her axe.

Just then, the stone moved.

It turned out that it wasn't a stone, but a tortoise shell.

A turtle the size of a washbasin poked its head out of the water, its tiny, bean-sized eyes gazing at the red kite through the glass.

It didn't exude any terrifying aura; in fact, it seemed somewhat dazed.

Hong Yuan looked at the turtle. Compared to the monsters outside that could breathe ice and fire at the drop of a hat, this turtle was much more pleasing to the eye.

"Instructor, you're raising turtles in this terrarium to improve their diet?" Hong Yuan tapped on the glass, her courage growing as the turtles seemed to dazed.

Hearing the noise, the turtle not only didn't run away, but instead swam slowly to the edge of the tank, paddling its limbs.

It opened its mouth, bit down on a rusty iron rod extending from the top of the tank, and used the force to pull itself out of the water.

"Clatter".

The turtle flipped over the edge of the glass tank and landed right next to Red Iris's feet, upside down.

Hongyuan was stunned. She flipped the turtle over with her toes.

The tortoise stretched out its front claws and slowly tugged at Hongyuan's boots, rubbing its head against her ankle, determined not to leave.

"This thing is also high-level?" Hong Yuan looked doubtful. She felt that this thing was not even as good as the wild chicken she casually killed by the roadside.

Instructor Jing, who was in the distance, stood up. He looked at the man and the tortoise, a strange look flashing in his eyes, and then he slapped his thigh and laughed.

"Hongyuan, your luck, or rather your instincts, are really good." Instructor Jing walked over, shuffling around in flip-flops.

"That's not some turtle, that's a Mystic Tortoise."

"The Mysterious Turtle?" Hong Yuan was completely confused.

"Knowledge-type monsters." Yin Chen's voice came from behind. Although he was still confronting the Frostbone Wolf, he kept listening to the commotion here: "These monsters have no physical combat power, nor do they master elemental magic. They have long lifespans, record everything, and are living history."

Instructor Jing snapped his fingers: "All correct. Young Master has a solid foundation in basic knowledge. The Tongxuan Turtle is a mobile supercomputer and a living library. Don't be fooled by its current size of only a washbasin; it's using all its energy to compress information."

Hongyuan looked down at the tortoise holding her boots and shook her leg in disgust.

But the turtle was holding on very tightly, and he couldn't shake it off at all.

"Why is it bothering me? I hate reading most of all," Hongyuan complained.
