Beast Taming Patrol

If every combat personnel had a Monarch Power monarch-class pet beast capable of deploying, would the beast tides still pose such a great threat?

Thinking of a future where each combat personnel on the frontier battles had a monarch-class pet beast, Lin Su's goal solidified almost instantly.

He decided to research this.

Among the lower-ranking leader-class species available for selection in the Beast Training Agreement, are mainly the ones best suited for combat on the frontier battle lines, such as the Dark and Ice attribute beasts, as well as some that can help combat personnel fight in specific ways, like the Heart Connection Deer Spirit.

But as to which ones specifically, Lin Su wasn't clear.

So before applying for the research project, he needed to consult with Qin Nan first.

"Here you go!" Qin Nan swiped her hand over the communicator, quickly sending an email to Lin Su's inbox, "Don't share this with others, just take a look yourself."

"All right." Lin Su nodded and started to read carefully.

The number of lower-ranking leader-class pet beasts available for selection in the Beast Training Agreement was not vast.

There were a total of twenty-one species, some of which were healing types or other types not intended for combat.

And according to the data, only two of these species had evolution routes to the monarch-class; the rest could only evolve to a higher-ranking leader class.

There really were quite a few choices for Lin Su.

His gaze lingered on each species for a moment, finally settling on one.

The image of Instructor Li Hong flashed through his mind.

Lin Su sighed softly and stroked the light screen with his finger.

Let's start with you, then.

The initial stage of the Dark Light Tiger—a Dark attribute lower-ranking leader-class species, the Snow Patterned Black Tiger.

After submitting the research project application for the evolution route of the Snow Patterned Black Tiger, Lin Su made his farewells, leaving Sister Nan's research room and returned to his own.

First he checked on the two pet beasts still in training, then decided to use the time while waiting for project approval to sort out the issue of a new house.

After finding several housing options that met his requirements and arranging to view them with an agent the next day, Lin Su turned off his communicator, took out the Space Heart, and began meditating.

In the blink of an eye, night fell.

Returning to the dormitory, Lin Su quickly washed up and recalled the two pet beasts into the Beast Taming Space.

Close your eyes, and cross over!

...

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

The research project for the evolution route of the Snow Patterned Black Tiger was approved the day after application.

And on the second day, Lin Su, along with his two pet beasts, visited the properties selected the previous day as per the arrangement with the real estate agent.

Eventually, after discussing it with his two pets, they chose a low-rise residence of over four hundred square meters next to the Beast Taming Association, complete with a garden as it was on the lower floors.

Although much smaller than the gardens in the Divine Martial World, Lin Su was very satisfied, as were Qiuqiu and Ghost Ghost.

What followed was the decoration.

He spent more than two hundred thousand contribution points to buy an intelligent training room that could sustain leader-class pet beasts in training, hiring people to modify and install it in the house.

The intelligent training room alone covered more than three hundred square meters, which was also why Lin Su bought such a big house for himself.

As for the expenses on security, like some special equipment capable of generating an Energy Light membrane to protect the house in emergencies, Lin Su didn't skimp on the contribution points, buying everything needed.

After settling the housing issue, Lin Su began the "research" of evolution routes on Blue Star.

The Snow Patterned Black Tiger has two different monarch-class evolution routes in the Divine Martial World, one of which is to evolve into the Dark Light Tiger first and then into the Dark attribute middle-ranking monarch-class Dark Holy Tiger, while the other is to directly evolve into the low-ranking monarch-class Eternal Night Frost Tiger of the Ice and Dark attributes, with no later evolutions currently available.

Given the unique environment of the frontier lines, both evolution routes are decent choices for combat personnel, so Lin Su planned to bring both out.

In the research room, there was already a batch of juvenile Snow Patterned Black Tigers and various evolutionary resources sent by the Beast Taming Association. All he needed to do now was to proceed with the experiments and wait for these little fellows with round heads and bodies covered in black and white patterns to complete their evolution.

In the Divine Martial World, nothing significant happened in these past few days.

Qiuqiu and Ghost Ghost carried on their daily routine of tackling the Beast Tower and training at the provided training ground of the Inn, while Lin Su made every second count, using the Space Heart for meditation.

Qiuqiu's Frost Resistance had reached the second stage's limit with intensified practice during this period, and if nothing went wrong, it should break through to the third stage after one more round in the Beast Tower tomorrow.

As for Ghost Ghost's Devouring of Nihility, it was still a distance from the third stage, with little hope of breakthrough before the second round of elimination in the preliminary tournament, but perhaps during the round-robin matches.

The preliminary tournament in the Divine Martial World had been going on for six days. Stay tuned for updates on empire

The four-day first round of eliminations and the two-day revival matches had ended, and up next was the three-day second round of eliminations.

This meant that Lin Su had to fight again.

Slowly opening his eyes from meditation, Lin Su looked at the two little ones on the training ground, a smile spreading across his face.

"Let's stop here for today's training," he said.

He contacted the two pets with telepathy from afar, and soon the trio headed back towards their room in the Inn.

"Senior Mu just told me that our second round of the elimination match is tomorrow," Lin Su said, shrugging helplessly.

Last time, his match was on the first day of the first round of eliminations, and now it was the same for the second round.

But it was okay, this time it was in the afternoon.

"Tomorrow our opponent is a Beast Tamer named Li Zhuangran, apparently local to the capital, so he might be a bit stronger, at least more so than the last one," Lin Su glanced at the eager Qiuqiu and Ghost Ghost, "Confident?"

"Meow! (ᓀωᓂ)" (No problem!)

"Jee! (￣‿￣)" (Confident!)

"That's the spirit," smiled Lin Su.

He wasn't too nervous himself.

After all, it was just an elimination round.

"Let's go, it's time to head back to the room to sleep," said Lin Su, his eyes holding a hint of anticipation.

This time back on Blue Star, the peaceful daily life of a college student he had been longing for was about to begin!
