Beast Taming Begins with the Inner Circle of Pets

Chapter 184 The Target: One Person, One Team

According to the class schedule I saw before, this teacher's surname seems to be Luo, but his full name has not been released.

Hearing that she wanted her to summon all her spirit pets, Lin Manman felt a little embarrassed.

Thinking about the boss's mouth, which never stops chattering all day long, if we summon it, the practical training class might turn into a pet tea party.

"Is there something inconvenient? It's okay, you can just summon the ones you use for class." Teacher Luo's voice was still gentle, and she didn't mind that she didn't want to summon all her spirit pets.

So Lin Manman summoned all the spirit beasts except for Liuli, Karl, and the boss.

When the other students saw Lin Manman summon eight more spirit pets, the atmosphere instantly became lively.

"Wow, that wolf is so cool!"

"Is this just a black rock bear? It doesn't look like one. Is it an advanced species?"

"Does anyone know what kind of snake that is? I don't think I've ever seen it before."

"Wait, that giant guinea pig actually has a contract? Isn't that thing food?"

"It's a tree spirit! These elemental life forms are incredibly rare. Her luck is just too good."

When Teacher Luo saw Lin Manman's spirit pets, he was speechless for a moment.

Putting everything else aside, these two rodent-like spirit pets clearly don't have much combat power. Teacher Luo can't quite understand why Lin Manman would form a contract with them.

While being able to contract three more spirit pets per level certainly gives you an advantage over others, is it really necessary to waste it like this?

"It seems that not all of your spirit pets are battle pets. Are you planning to train a balanced team of spirit pets?" Teacher Luo carefully examined her spirit pets and guessed Lin Manman's idea.

Beast tamers are also divided into different schools due to different contract philosophies.

Some players focus on their battle pets to maximize their combat power, leaving the rest to their teammates.

Some can balance support and survival, capable of both offense and defense, and can function as a squad even when played alone.

Beastmasters with lower talent, not knowing what level they will be stuck at, cherish their limited contract opportunities and mostly choose to maximize their combat power.

For someone with higher talent like Lin Manman, some might be confident enough to choose the second option, but they wouldn't choose to do it at a lower level.

After all, when the level is still low, battle pets are more advantageous, and battle pets also level up faster than support-type spirit pets.

"That's how I see it," Lin Manman nodded, giving an affirmative answer to the teacher's question.

She doesn't need to worry about being stuck at a certain level, nor does she need to worry about pet slots. As long as she has enough time and resources, she can cultivate a powerful and complete team of pets and complete the secret realm exploration all by herself.

Teacher Luo gave her an appreciative smile. "You are very confident in yourself, which is a good thing. Your courage is commendable. I also sincerely wish that you can successfully train a perfect team of spirit pets."

"Alright, before we officially begin class, let me say a few more words to everyone. I know that some of you come from well-off families and entrust your spirit pets to others for feeding and training, so you can focus on your own cultivation and improvement."

"But I want you to understand that the greatest combat power of a Beastmaster is its spirit pet. The tacit understanding between you and your spirit pet determines whether you can maximize the combat power that your spirit pet should have."

"Therefore, your teacher hopes that during your daily cultivation time, you will also spend more time with and getting to know your spirit pets."

"That concludes my suggestions. Let's begin the lesson..."

Teacher Luo first had all of Lin Manman's summoned spirit pets fight against her one by one, so that she could understand the abilities and combat power of these spirit pets, which would make it easier to divide the students into opponents and group them for battle later.

After the battles, she also used these battles to explain some training techniques for pet skill release to other students.

After that, the students were divided into groups according to their abilities, and they began to practice against each other.

Lin Manman has many spirit pets, so she also has many opponents, facing three fellow beast tamers by herself.

However, her forte is dealing with multiple opponents. Even though the combined number of spirit pets belonging to these three beast tamer classmates exceeded hers, she still managed to overpower them.

Upon seeing this, Teacher Luo realized that he had greatly underestimated Lin Manman's strength, so he added two more opponents for her, but the result still did not change much.

As the fight progressed, Lin Manman became increasingly engrossed, even summoning her leader, almost single-handedly taking on the entire class of beast tamers.

It was only thanks to Teacher Luo's timely intervention that the situation didn't spiral out of control.

When the final practical lesson was about to end, Teacher Luo looked at Lin Manman with the same joy and brilliance as if she were looking at some precious treasure.

Gan Wenqiu witnessed her classmate's overwhelming dominance and gained a new understanding of her.

After the practical lesson ended, he eagerly followed Lin Manman, intending to watch her fight with the Wang sisters.

"Wow, my deskmate is amazing! You've been hiding your true abilities. Nine spirit pets, two of which know domain skills, and that wolf can even be summoned! I've learned something new!"

Gan Wenqiu's personality is sometimes similar to Fang Yaqi's, which makes Lin Manman feel quite close to him.

"It's alright, it's alright, I'll keep a low profile," Lin Manman said modestly.

She hasn't let Pipi use her domain skills yet; it's just a practical training class, so using Pipi's domain skills would be a bit much.

"The information published online is too general. The Wang sisters probably don't know your actual strength either. I want to go see their surprised expressions."

Gan Wenqiu had an impatient expression on his face.

Gan Wenqiu had no personal grudge against them, but she just couldn't stand the two sisters' arrogant attitude.

Lin Manman found it amusing that the two Wang sisters were really unpopular. They had only arrived a day earlier than her, yet the whole class seemed to have a bad impression of them.

When the two returned to their classroom from the training venue, the Wang sisters were no longer there, and many of their classmates had gone home directly after the practical training session.

Just as Lin Manman and her companion were wondering why the Wang sisters hadn't appeared, a male classmate who had stayed in the classroom hesitantly approached them.

"Here, the Wang sisters, Zihan and Zitong, left you a note..." The boy handed a note to Lin Manman, his eyes darting around with a mixture of evasion and anticipation.

"Xu Rui, you were beaten up like that yesterday, how come you're helping them out today?" Gan Wenqiu looked at him with a complicated expression.

"What could I do? We were taking practical classes together, and they caught me after class and made me come back to deliver a message." Xu Rui said with a long face, feeling very frustrated.

"Lin...you really have to do your best and teach them a lesson!"

As the old saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Because they shared the same enemy, Xu Rui not only accepted Lin Manman, his new classmate, more quickly, but also saw her as a hope to wash away his shame.

Gan Wenqiu grinned with a cute yet slightly mischievous smile, "If you're not in a hurry to go home, why don't you come watch the game together?"

Lin Manman glanced at Gan Wenqiu, who seemed to thrive on chaos, before unfolding the note to read it.

It turned out that the two sisters had stayed in the training room to wait for her, and had asked this boy named Xu Rui to send her a message telling her which training room they were in.

He also left a message telling her that if she backed down, he would post the news online so that everyone could see that Master Meng's new disciple was nothing special and not worth much.

Lin Manman couldn't help but roll her eyes. Although this provocation was childish, it was indeed effective.

She threw the note into the trash can and turned to walk back towards the training hall.

"Let's go see what these two sisters are capable of."

Thank you winnie21 for the monthly pass!
