Chapter 300: Master Is Here!
There were actually not many people present.
But it was quite lively.
There were only two true Beast Tamers, one tall and one short, who looked to be in their thirties.
The rest were all staff members of the Beast Cultivation House, some of whom were part-time students of the Beast Cultivation major.
Wang Che glanced at it and saw the Bamboo Bear.
In the backyard of the Beast Cultivation House, through the window, he could see many soul pets playing in the backyard.
The little Bamboo Bear was hugging a bamboo and eating alone.
The way it ate the bamboo was a little cute.
It looked lazy and was completely different from its usual hardworking self.
It was completely different from other soul beasts.
The other soul beasts were rather excited.
Choosing soul pets worked both ways.
After a student chose a soul pet, if the soul pet was resistant, they couldn’t force it.
They could only choose other soul pets.
In other words, only when the two were compatible could students bring their soul pets to sign a life contract.
If they didn’t like each other, the Beast Tamer could only suggest choosing other soul pets.
However, to hundred year or even thousand year soul beasts, before becoming a soul pet, their intelligence was actually not very high.
Basically, as long as one did not look ferocious, extremely terrifying, or so ugly that it shocked the world, soul pets would follow them.
They also looked forward to having a Contract Soul Master.
“Why doesn’t it seem interested in choosing a Contract Soul Master… At this stage, soul beasts should be very eager to have a Contract Soul Master under the training of Beast Tamers.”
Wang Che was a little curious.
In the past two months, Wang Che had not communicated with this Bamboo Bear, so he did not know its situation.
Of course, there should not be anything special.
However, its martial cultivation talent was very high.
Not only was it uninterested, but it also resisted this selection process.
Wang Che watched with interest.
“Eh, Student Wang, why are you here?”
At this moment, Shen Mingluan’s voice suddenly sounded from the side.
“Are you also here to choose a soul pet?”
Shen Mingluan held a bag of food and walked over. She looked at Wang Che strangely, “Don’t tell me you’re going to choose your third soul pet? You’ve reached Level 20?”
Normally speaking, after reaching Level 20 and obtaining a second soul ring, he could begin training his third soul pet.
It could also be trained in advance.
“Soon.” Wang Che nodded, “I’m not here to choose. I’m here to take a look.”
“It’s only been a semester!” Shen Mingluan couldn’t help but say, “You’re already about to surpass me… forget it, if you want to choose a third soul pet, tell me. I know these two teachers and can help you choose.”
“If you don’t like our school’s soul pets, then go to the other colleges. I know all the Beast Tamers out there.”
“The third soul pet is still very important. If you participate in the university soul pet competition involving all war zones next year, the rule is that you have to have three soul pets. Without three, you can’t participate.”
“Hmm… Why would I tell a first-year student like you about a competition that only fourth-year students can join…?”
Shen Mingluan revealed a helpless expression.
“Of course it’s because you have extraordinary taste, Senior Sister,” Wang Che said with a smile.
Shen Mingluan pursed her lips and smiled.
At this moment…
Wang Che saw a beautiful girl walking to the Bamboo Bear in the backyard under the lead of the tall Beast Tamer.
The girl’s eyes lit up as if she liked the Bamboo Bear.
However, as the tall Beast Tamer explained the situation, her expression gradually changed from a smile to silence.
The tall Beast Tamer ran over to communicate with the Bamboo Bear kindly, as if to let it show off.
The Bamboo Bear stood up lazily and punched a black-gold rock in front of it.
The girl was even more disappointed and sighed.
The tall Beast Tamer could only shake his head helplessly.
The girl finally looked at the other soul pets.
Wang Che found this scene funny.
“What’s wrong with that Bamboo Bear?” Wang Che asked.
“Oh, you mean Bear Treasure!”
Shen Mingluan naturally saw this scene too. To be precise, many students saw this scene.
“Principal Gu brought this Bear Treasure back from the West Peak Continent’s soul pet base. There were originally several.”
Shen Mingluan seemed to know very well, “Its companions have been chosen by other students in the past two years. Due to some special reasons, no student has been willing to take it away.”
“What reason?”
“It can’t evolve,” Shen Mingluan said. Then, she added, “The official explanation is that the currently known evolved forms of the Bamboo Bear aren’t suited for it to evolve into.”
“Oh?” Wang Che was surprised.
The Bamboo Bear’s evolution was one of the most famous research results in the modern soul pet world in the Eastern War Zone.
It was even famous in the entire Federation.
Because for now, no soul pet had more than three special evolution forms.
Both were rare and required the power of the martial soul. The conditions for the evolution path were also rather harsh.
Currently, the Bamboo Bear had four evolution forms.
It covered four attributes and could be said to be extremely useful.
Other than the Mountain Bamboo Bear that had just been developed and was slightly difficult to evolve, the conditions for evolution for the other three forms were not harsh!
The requirement for the martial soul’s characteristics was not very high. The materials needed were also relatively easy to obtain.
Therefore, the Bamboo Bear’s potential was extremely high.
Every form was very strong and had its own characteristics. They all looked very good.
In the Eastern War Zone, it was definitely a super popular soul pet.
However, this was the first time Wang Che had heard of a Bamboo Bear that could not evolve.
More accurately, the other potential forms of the Bamboo Bear were still being studied.
It just could not evolve into these four forms specifically.
“To students, this soul pet can’t evolve into the current four publicly known forms. They can only hope that the next evolution form will be developed before it can evolve… But what if the next one is not suitable too? To many students, it’s a gamble.”
Shen Mingluan said, “The Bamboo Bear’s species potential is only rare. In the selection of the second and third soul pets, it’s actually not bad. However, if it can’t evolve, it will become weaker and weaker later on. The difference between it and other soul pets will become greater and greater… the consequences will be huge later on!”
“The students naturally can’t afford to take the chance.”
Wang Che nodded.
‘I see.’
“Many students have already chosen this Bamboo Bear, but because it can’t evolve, they can only give up.”
Shen Mingluan sighed, “Therefore, this little guy is very negative every time it faces such a choice. However, according to the two Beast Tamers, it actually works very hard to train itself… I believe it still wants to obtain the recognition of the Contract Soul Master.”
“No wonder this Bamboo Bear wakes up so early to train at the mountain track everyday.”
Wang Che understood.
This was the reason why this Bamboo Bear worked so hard to train itself.
“I’m in charge of the snacks that soul pets usually eat here. I know more about it.” Shen Mingluan said, “Looking at the situation today, it probably won’t have a chance. It’s even more negative than before. Teacher He asked it to show its strength, but it’s weak… this probably means that no student will choose it. In a few days, it should be sent back to the West Peak Continent’s soul pet research base.”
“Moreover, its soul power cultivation seems to have broken through a thousand years. Even as a third soul pet, training it is rather troublesome.”
“After all, it has been in the academy for several years…”
“Looking at it now, even if there are really students who don’t mind its flaws, it will probably find it very difficult to sign a life contract with them.”
Shen Mingluan felt that it was a pity.
At this moment, another third-year student took a fancy to the Bamboo Bear.
As a super powerful soul pet in the war zone, it was indeed enough to attract many students.
Unfortunately, they all shook their heads and left with a sigh.
Wang Che pondered for a few seconds.
“Eh, Junior Wang, don’t tell me…” Shen Mingluan smiled, “However, you can even nurture a green caterpillar. To this Bamboo Bear that can’t evolve, perhaps it’s not impossible for you.”
Wang Che’s green caterpillar was a true green caterpillar.
It was hatched from an egg.
Although she did not know how it was nurtured, to be able to nurture it to this extent, this beast nurturing talent was naturally unfathomable.
“However, this Little Bear Treasure is probably giving up on itself,” Shen Mingluan said. “Even if you want to, it might not be willing. It still has a thousand-year soul power cultivation. Its intelligence is slightly higher than other soul beasts. It has a very strong sense of self.”
“With the previous encounter, it’s probably very difficult to accept a Contract Soul Master.”
“I’ll try,” Wang Che said.
After teaching for two months, he still had some feelings for it.
Wang Che walked over and said to the tall Beast Tamer, “Teacher He, I want to choose my third soul pet, this one.”
“Wang Che?” The tall Beast Tamer looked up and immediately recognized him.
This was the most popular student of the Forest Academy.
In the academy, it was not an exaggeration to say that everyone knew about it.
He looked where Wang Che pointed.
“Bamboo Bear?” Teacher He frowned, “You want to choose this one?”
“Yes.”
“Why don’t you consider it again?” The tall Beast Tamer shook his head, “I’m afraid it’s very difficult… Its situation is very special…”
“I learned about the situation from Senior Shen.” Wang Che coughed and said, “It will do.”
At this moment, the other students who were choosing soul pets were also attracted.
“Look, look, it’s coming. Instead of choosing a typical strong pet, he goes after the weak and problematic one. This is the genius who can nurture the Insect Heavenly Emperor! He’s indeed extraordinary!”
“Wang Che chose this Bamboo Bear? Wait? Didn’t he have two… Damn, he chose the third one? Are you kidding me? He’s only in his first year!”
“He definitely saw something special about this Bamboo Bear when he chose it. Eh, why can’t we tell…”
“What’s so special about it? This Bear Treasure is cute, but unfortunately, it can’t evolve. We fourth-year students all know about it, but you second and third years don’t know about it yet so you choose it blindly.”
“From the first few examples, you can tell that Bear Treasure has already given up on itself. Teacher He specially placed a piece of black-gold rock in front of it, but it’s not even willing to show its strength in front of us. Perhaps it doesn’t have much strength…”
“As a soul pet that Master Che personally chose, don’t even think about it. It’s definitely not simple. I’m guessing that this Bamboo Bear definitely has some special talent! Everyone, open your eyes and watch!”
…
Teacher He brought Wang Che to the backyard and walked towards the Bamboo Bear.
He persuaded Wang Che along the way until they reached the Bamboo Bear.
“Bear Treasure…”
Teacher He had just shouted when the next moment, the lazy Bamboo Bear immediately stood up.
It looked like it was on steroids.
Then, it walked to the black-gold rock.
‘Master is here!’
‘He’s here to check my progress!’
‘I have to perform well!’
