Beast Taming Begins with Inheriting a Legacy.

Chapter 7 How to Use the Ancient Beast Taming Manual (Revised)

After the contract is successfully formed, the beast tamer will be able to understand the words of their pet. Therefore, Gu Ling smiled and said, "You look very beautiful and ethereal. Today is the ninth, and we met on the ninth... So I'll call you Fairy Nine, how about that?"

Lei Yin Cat purred happily: "Meow!" This barely does justice to me!

Gu Ling turned to Jiang Jun, a sheepish smile on her face: "Miss Jiang Jun, I'd like to ask if I can still wander around the base? I'd like to get to know the other pets."

"After school starts, there will be a class placement exam, and I want to observe these pets that will be handed over to the new Beastmasters up close now."

"Sure," Jiang Jun said cheerfully.

Gu Ling received a bonus for accompanying and introducing the pet she purchased.

With the prize money in hand, Jiang Jun was in an incredibly happy mood.

"You have one and a half hours left on your reservation. During this time, you are free to visit the petting zoo within the base."

"OK."

Gu Ling turned to Xian Jiu and chuckled, leaving the latter somewhat bewildered.

Something is wrong!

Its beast tamer must be an idiot!

Was the contract signed too early?

Can I still return it?

Gu Ling, who was a contracted beast tamer, understood Xian Jiu's mutterings and immediately grabbed the white kitten on her shoulder and repeatedly "ruffled" it.

return the goods?

That's absolutely impossible!

……

For the next hour and a half, Xian Jiu watched helplessly as her beast tamer petted every pet she saw with a 'lewd' expression, and she immediately felt deeply deceived!

Scumbag!

The Beast Tamer doesn't just like petting that one cat!

Even when she left the pet incubation base, Xian Jiu still looked sullen and secretly made a decision in her heart.

It will never forgive the beast tamer!

It will never forgive the beast tamer so easily!

It's going to cut ties with the beast tamer for three days! It won't speak to the beast tamer for even a day!

"Xian Jiu, let's go buy some dried fish!"

The next second, the white kitten's ear tips immediately perked up.

When Gu Ling led Xian Jiu into the pet supermarket and she saw rows of canned fish and cat treats, her cat eyes immediately lit up. She happily rubbed against Gu Ling's neck, urging him on:

"Meow!" I want that!

Gu Ling placed several flavors of canned fish in front of Xian Jiu: "What flavor do you want? We have seaweed, spicy, tomato, barbecue, green pepper..."

Xian Jiu was confused by the colorful cans and didn't know which flavor to choose.

"Then let's get a few cans of each flavor, so you can try them all. If you like any of them, we can stock up on more," Gu Ling said, turning to Xian Jiu.

Xian Jiu nodded quickly.

"And cat treats, fish crackers, fish marshmallows, Mare's milk... I'll have some of these too."

"Meow!"

(ω*) Beastmaster! I love you, cat!

After buying food for Xianjiu, Gu Ling went to the pet furniture section and bought a cat bed and cat tree for Xianjiu. Considering that Xianjiu might get injured during training, she also bought some pet medicine.

In total, Gu Ling spent 6200 yuan, 5000 yuan on food, 200 yuan on small furniture, and 1000 yuan on medicine.

Products involving the word "pet" see their prices skyrocket several times over.

But you can't not buy it. For example, Meili milk costs 500 yuan a bottle. It is a nutritious milk that almost every young pet drinks. The milk source is from milk tank cows. The nutrients contained in it can improve the resistance of young pets and help them get through the young stage as soon as possible.

As Gu Ling left the supermarket carrying shopping bags, she glanced at Xian Jiu, who was happily munching on a seaweed-flavored cat treat on her shoulder, and silently added the 6200 yuan to Xian Jiu's account.

For every penny she spends, she'll win back double the bonus!

……

Back home, before Gu Ling could even put down her shopping bags, Xian Jiu jumped off her shoulder and began surveying the entire house with an air of familiarity, as if inspecting territory she had just conquered.

Gu Ling closed the door, arranged the newly bought pet supplies, and opened a can of seaweed-flavored fish for Xian Jiu.

Upon smelling the fresh aroma of the dried fish, Xian Jiu happily meowed and ran over, burying her head in eating the dried fish.

Gu Ling sat on the sofa and began examining the ancient books in the Beast Taming Space.

[Holder of the Ancient Book of Beasts]: Gu Ling

Gender: Female

Age: 16

[Beast Taming Space Level]: One Star

[Beastmaster Talent]: None

[Contracted Pet]: Thunder Seal Cat (Xian Jiu)

[Overall Rating]: A complete newbie with a pet cub.

【...】

Gu Ling stared at the final overall evaluation for several seconds, then silently comforted herself: "Oh well, at least it had a few more words."

She'll get rid of those two words sooner or later!

After calming down, Gu Ling checked the data for Xianjiu again.

In Xianjiro, you can learn Electric and Psychic type skills, as well as some Normal type skills.

As for skills of other attributes, they are extremely difficult to learn. There are occasional exceptions, but generally no pet will learn skills of other attributes across attributes, so they will not be considered for the time being.

Gu Ling collected 12 species of pets at the Nanping Pet Hatchery Base, totaling 1000, including 360 pet eggs and 640 pet cubs.

Unfortunately, the Nanping Pet Hatchery doesn't have any super-powered pets, so Gu Ling can't collect super-powered skills.

Moreover, Gu Ling only interacts with cubs and pet eggs, and only knows a few initial skills. The skills that Gu Ling can collect and teach are also very limited.

[Skills that can be taught]:

[Normal Type]: Growl, Roar, Gaze, Charge, Tail Wag, Sand Splash, Scratching, Smoke Screen, Double Kick, Quick Attack

[Electric System]: Electric Shock*, Electric Spark

[Fire]: Spark

[Water System]: Foam, Water Gun

[Grass type]: Absorb, Vine Whip

[Bug type]: Silk-spinning, Blood-sucking

[Flying]: Pecking, Wind Rises

[Ground System]: Dig a tunnel

[Number of places available for skills instruction]: 1/2

Available Points: 1038

When Gu Ling touched the 1001st pet in the base, the points stopped refreshing.

The number of times a skill can be taught is refreshed. The first refresh is when you have 500 points, and the second refresh is when you have 1000 points.

On the way back, Gu Ling pondered for a while. After signing the contract, she noticed that Xian Jiu's skills now displayed proficiency values. She tried using 10 points, and Xian Jiu's [Electric Shock] skill proficiency immediately increased by 10.

After studying the ancient beast-taming manual all night, Gu Ling currently knows the following information:

1. Uncontracted pets require direct contact to be included in or have their data viewed, while contracted pets do not require contact and their data can be viewed at any time.

2. For the first pet or pet egg included, you get +5 points. For each subsequent pet of the same species included, you get +1 point. Each pet can only have its points refreshed once.

3. The daily maximum number of points that can be collected is 1000. For every 500 points accumulated, the number of skill slots that can be taught will be refreshed by 1.

4. If the same skill is recorded 10 times consecutively, the skill will be unlocked and become teachable.

5. Skill slots can permanently unlock one teachable skill and teach it to a pet. Points can increase the pet's skill proficiency.
