Ye Xuan lifted his head and, his eyes shining with excitement, looked at the ginormous Amber Dragon, which stood as tall as a tiny building.

It had amberlike skin, which exuded four different colors of light, and had chilling, dragon-like eyes and was incredibly graceful, as revealed when it slowly flapped its wings. Such a behemoth was truly mesmerizing.

So much so that he fell in love with it at first glance.

“So what do you think? Pretty neat, isn’t it?” Nong Lejia asked Ye Xuan with a smile.

“Yeah.” Ye Xuan nodded.

He made up his mind that he would get a beast like that for himself when he went into the Amber Secret Realm.

“I knew you’d like it. When this old pal of mine was still at the Apprentice Level, I’m sure many people were envious of me,” Nong Lejia said proudly.

However, as soon as his worlds fell, his eyes flashed with an indescribable gloominess as he touched the cold, sleek body of the Dual-winged Amber Dragon beast.

“Of course, this beast, who was originally a four star, has dropped to Silver one star because of the constant leveling up. I’m afraid that it has no hope of reaching Gold or even higher levels in the future.”

Ye Xuan silently nodded.

Most Beast Tamers were emotionally invested in their first beast.

But with Nong Lejia’s beast, because its default level was too low, it didn’t have that high of a star rating.

A beast like that could do well in the early stages. But in the later stages, it wouldn’t provide much help to the Beast Tamer.

Hence, he could roughly guess Nong Lejia’s feelings.

But on this issue, he couldn’t do anything to help him.

His Beast Editor would only work on his own beasts.

Just like how Beast Tamers with extraordinary talents could only assist their own beasts in increasing their star ratings, his Beast Editor had no effect on other people’s beasts.

However, it was precisely because of this that he dared to display his talent without hesitation.

Otherwise, with his talent, he would certainly tempt many people into capturing him and using him as a tool.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to see who your classmates will be for the next two months.”

“They’re all in the Combat Hall right now. In the future, you’ll be spending most of your time there.”

The gloomy expression in Nong Lejia’s eyes disappeared. With a wave of his hand, he stored the Dual-winged Amber Dragon back inside the gemstone on the ring he was wearing.

Then, he walked toward one of the buildings nearby.

Ye Xuan glanced at the ring on Nong Lejia’s hand. He knew that the gemstone was the legendary Beast Taming Orb.

This item was produced from the ruins that appeared along with the many quantum fissures and secret realms that cropped up.

Even the bad ones were sold for 100,000 dollars.

The good ones were available at prices from 100,000 to even 1,000,000 dollars.

Most Beast Tamers with a bit of wealth would get one.

After Ye Xuan enviously glanced at the Beast Taming Orb on Nong Lejia’s hand, he quickly followed Nong Lejia to the nearby building.

As he got closer, the roaring of unknown beasts, which would arise from time to time in that building, became clearer.

And as the two walked into the Combat Hall, Ye Xuan saw at a glance that there were dozens of people inside, as well as many kinds of strange beasts, who outnumbered the humans.

“Gale Monster, Silvermoon Demon Wolf, Bluewater Toad…”

Ye Xuan looked at each of the beasts, his eyes alight with excitement.

He’d never seen so many beasts up close before.

He’d had a deep-rooted love for beasts ever since he was a child.

“Ain’t I just a little tiny?”

On Ye Xuan’s shoulder, Lil wan saw that Ye Xuan was staring intently at the beasts in the Combat Hall. She pursed her tiny mouth out of jealously and muttered to herself, feeling slightly depressed.

She had never seen Ye Xuan look at herself with such passion.

Therefore, she felt that it must be because she was too little.

Hearing Lil wan mumbling, Ye Xuan turned around and asked her in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing. I’ll try my best to advance to the Dark Iron Level as soon as possible,” Lil wan said as she raised her tiny, clenched fist.

Once she broke into the Dark Iron Level, she could evolve into a Divine Wood Elf with Ye Xuan’s assistance.

She hoped she’d grow a little bigger once she became a Divine Wood Elf.

She lowered her head and looked at her own physique.

She felt that if she was larger, she would better match human beauty standards.

Ye Xuan smiled.

Lil wan had read many books, but she was a little shy in nature. When Ye Xuan talked to other people, she would hide inside his pocket most of the time, which caused her to have too little contact with others and a rather low emotional intelligence.

Of course, Ye Xuan didn’t like Lil wan any less because of this. Instead, he felt that she, whose heart was full of fantasy, was all the more adorable.
