*Hiss! Chirp! Cluck! Ang! Rrrrr!*

  So many sound of crying Beast could be heard from the training ground.

  Fortunately the school has Caretaker room for the newly hatched Beast to be put into.

  Otherwise no student will be able to study with how noisy they are if we bring them to class.

  YueQi and LanLan are sitting down together while holding their own Beast.

  "hmm? look at your Chrocodile, has he become a little fatter? What did you feed him?

  My XiaoCai didn't like eating baby White Rat, so I could only give her some Water Snake fruit. Picky princess". LanLan complain.

  Heard someone mention him, Taotie's making a sound of *Ang! Ang! Ang!* To greet LanLan Snake Beast.

  *Sshh*, XiaoCai stick out her snake tongue in greeting.

  *Ang ang ang?*

  *hisss!*

  What a cute little guy YueQi thought, become friend easily unlike his Beast Master...

  "Okay class, pay attention!" Madam Vita shouting and summoning her Pet, Golden Metal Bull.

  ?

  It make a loud roar, *mooo!* And invisible pressure suddenly spreading making the noisy students and Beast, all silent.

  "Very good. Let me talk about the Soul Contract Scroll briefly.

  Majority of human born in blue star starting from 700years ago will open up a special space in their soul in the form of a scroll, so we named it 'Soul Contract Scroll'.

  Due to the catalysm and Secret Realm crack that appeared, us human able to make a contract will all type of Extraordinary Creatures, including Animal type, Plant type, and the formless type of Elemental spirit and Ghost.

  But human potential are still limited and the newly awakened people have weaker Soul..

  So you all should choose the Creatures you want to contract as Pet carefully.

  The initial Pet are usually an egg, or Beast cub.

  Mutated Plant seedling could also be used as Initial Pet but only specific peole willing to do so as the improvement by the Pet is too minimal.

  The Mutated plant are of Auxiliary type which could offer help in some Profession, and could also attack once their grown into the 2nd stage of their life.

  But as seedling, the attack power is almost none making the Beast Tamer that Contracted them not being able to have means of self protection.

  Contracting a mechanical Pet and those Inanimated Object that grow spiritually is better, as they are easier to be artificially modified to make them stronger.

  But the cost and scarcity is not something you could get your hands into.

  Same as other powerful rare Beast such as Dragon, no one will Contract them as their Initial Pet.

  Because they have stronger Soul in thir Cub stage compared to you who just awakened. Some means need to be used to safely contract them, and only powerdul families able to do so.

  The maximum age to awaken is 3pyears old, if by then you still haven't awakened the Soul Contract Soul, then I regret to tell you, the chance of officially crossing from normal human, to that of a Beast Master is 0.

  But don't worry, as majority of human statistically recorded that even those with average talent could become a Beast Master, albeit only able to contract one beast all their life.

  Those with decent talent could contract 2-3 beast. While those who have a stronger soul could contract 4! A rare talent worthy of being proud of.

  We call the talent 'Potential Corner', corresponding to the Soul Contract Scroll edge.

  As you already know, the scroll have 4 corner. Upper left , upper right, down left, and down right.

  Those who only able to contract 1 beast are easier to notice. Once successfully contract their Initial Pet, their Pet portrait will appear in the middle of the Scroll.

  While those who have higher potential will start from the upper left.

  The latter are hard to determine because we still didn't have any means to know whenever you could be a genius with 4 corner unclocked, or stop midway in 2-3 corner.

  Legend say when the cataclysm occur, 7 legendary figure appeared and pacify the Extraordinary Creatures Invasion, make some highly dangerous Secret Realm crack smaller, and build the City Walls to protect their fellow humans.

  It is said in the record, that each of the 7 Legendary figure have 5 contracted Pet!

  Okay that's it.

  Now Let me ask you a question, those who already awakened their Soul Contract Scroll, please raise your hand."

  all the students raised their hand.

  Madam Vita nodded her head and continued, "Very good, Now listen to my explanation, contracting Pet are easier the younger the Beast is.

  After a while, meditate and look into your soul and try to open your Soul Contract Scroll.

  Open the scroll carefully, and don't be impatient, or your Scroll gonna rip and it will damage your soul directly.

  After opening it successfully, put your hand in the head pf the Creatures you want to contract, then channel a wisp of your Soul to bind and merge with their soul, making them your Pet.

  After the contract succeed, you could understand the Pet status and emotion, making it easier to communicate.

  You could also store your Pet inside your Soul Contract Scroll.

  I will note down your Potential Corner later.

  Remember, no lies!

  You could lying and say your Pet appear in the left corner, thus making you a potential Beast Master with 4corner Potential in the future. While the truth are, your Pet appear in the central position.

  Of course a mutation could occur due to external factors, and changed your potential in the future, but such case are rare.

  Beside, when you go participate in College entrance examinations, there will be a professional testing machine and military personnel to test your real potential again before entering your first Secret Realm crack.

  Stolen story; please report.

  So don't embarrass yourself today, and your almamater School by lying about your potential!"

  Madam Vita stopped talking and cast a glance to all of the student.

  Seeing the students face look solemn and serious, she continues, " Okay you could start meditate now."

  following Madam Vita instructions, YuQi also started to concentrate.

  Breath in... Breath out...

  After a few second, she could feel a slight fluctuation from the deep of her soul.

  She could see a blank white scroll still rolled up and it has not yet being opened.

  YueQi opened the scroll gently, and slowly.

  Its kind of weird to be honest. The Scroll are vague. Yet at the same time feel very real as if its physically there, inside her brain.

  Opened her eyes, YueQi put her hand on the confused Taotie's green head and said to him, "Taotie, don't resist. I will inpart my soul wisp to bind your soul, be my Pet, okay?"

  *Ang!*

  Something flow out of my hand and enter Taotie's head, our soul comboned making his body glow with rainbow light, and then no long after, a white Array appeared below his body.

  Bit by bit, his body slowly dissappearing and she could feel a connection with him.

  In the fully opened scroll, Shen yueQi could see Taotie Chibi body on it...

  In the middle of the scroll...

  ?

  Covering her face, she can't believe she has the worst talent of Beast Master...

  Is it because she's not native to this Blue Star?

  Or is it because she's unlucky? After the incident of her family and now this, YueQi feel unsure.

  And Taotie's potential actually White!

  Sighing and accepting the reality. I feel my vision blurred for a second and then blue dot flickering making a string of words appeared before her eyes.

  Note:

  A young beast that hatch 3 days ago. Have low Potential but nothings are set in stone~

  love eating the most and quite liked his Master!

  "【?_??】

  where is this? Master, Help!" ]

  Is this normal to have? Or a golden finger?

  So last night she really seeing these words?

  1.5 star, 2.5 star, and 4.5 star evolution!

  Opened her eyes, YueQi can't hide her excitement!

  She took a look at her other classmate, a few of them have a smile on their face.

  While many of them have a pale and dejected look.

  Lan Shi, her best Friend had a smile on her face, "Qiqi, XiaoCai appear on a left corner! Haha, I will have a potential to be a 4corner Beast Master in the future!"

  "Congratulations!", Shen YueQi feel happy for her.

  "Thank you, how about you?"

  "My talent are bad, Taotie appeared in the middle of the Scroll.

  if nothing unexpected happened, Taotie will be the only Pet I have for the rest of my life."

  LanLan smile dissappear, "I'm sorry".

  "Its okay, everyone have their own fate. Beside, the teacher said that she will noted our potential later to be registered on Beast Center Union, So everyone will know it sooner or later.

  Anyway lets be happy, aren't we dreamed of entering Universitas of Siliwangi Beast Taming College in the future?"

  Clenching her Fist, LanLan cheer up again, "You're right! Green array light up when I contracted XiaoCai, What's your Taotie's Array look like?"

  "Its of low quality. White array appeared when I summoned him. Luckily its not the lowest quality.

  ?

  I'll feel heartbroken if Taotie has the same lowest Star Quality as the famous Straw Doll, Slime or majority of Mutated Plant.

  He have 4 skill. A common one that his species learned."

  "how do you know his skill?? Aren't you just contracting him?"

  Hearing LanLan questions, YueQi heart skip a beat, "I could feel it clearly, maybe my soul are a bit sensitive, haha..."

  "hmmmm... Let me see, i couldn't feel what skill my XiaoCai have, but she's probably awaken the same skill her species do in their Hatcling stage."

  Confirming something, I ask LanLan another question, "And then? Did you see anything?"

  "No. Are we supposed to see something? Where? inside the Contract Scroll?"

  We stare at each other for a while until Madam Vita call our attention over to her.

  "Okay, half an hour already past. Look like all of you have successfully contracting your first Pet.

  Congratulations! Now come here and tell me your Scroll potential.

  Eleanor!..", Madam Vita starting to call the student one by one and registered all the information of the students in the Beast Center Union site.

  She need it to make a Beast Master Badge for them later.

  Among the 33 student of Regular Class, 27 students have no corner potential.

  Madam Vita frowned, year after year, Low Quality Beast Tamer seem to appear more frequently.

  Those with central potential with 1 Pet slot will be recommended to choose normal Universities and work like normal civilian.

  Because to enroll in Beast Taming colleges, in addition to grade, the students also need to do the infamous life and death battle to obtain resources, where heavy casualties appear everty year.

  Looking at the students who feel dejected, she could only sigh.

  She also once a hot blooded youth.

  Asking these kid to be 'ordinary' all their life will not work. They probably still want to enter the beast taming university.

  No one will stop it, but they need to either pour all their family resources on the only Pet they have and pray for it to be stronger.

  Or gamble life & die in the secret realm.

  Of course young people are full of ambition, who want to be ordinary? They want to try their best! Success or fail, talk about it later.

  Madam Vita herself know it better, so she could only offer encouragement, "Those with central talent, don't be sad! there's still many choice await you. Whenever to be ordinary or defy fate, its in your own hand.

  Work hard to reach your dream, I will wait for your good news next year!".

  "Yes, Madam!!" x33

  The shout particularly high at this moment.

  YueQi also feel the enthusiasm from these shout. After some encouraging speech, madam Vita then teach us on how to summon Our Pet.

  Many array began to light up one by one, some are white, mostly green, YueQi could see one or two blue and unexpectedly, Shen Yue's summoning array are Purple!

  As expected of Ice element Beast. It must be a very expensive Creature, it's worthy of the connection and wealth used by dad.

  YueQi look at Taotie who keep moving inside her Soul Contract Scroll.

  Ugh, Taotie seem a bit anxious there.

  ?

  Calling a summoning White array, Taotie appeared and looked around for a second, then dashed to her feet, crying as if wronged.

  She could only coax him by rubbing his green head, to calm him down.

  Next, the teacher start the most disliked course in the school.. Running.

  Madam Vita are very strict teacher, and we already used to it.

  But today, she especially like a devil incarnation and told us to run 20km together with our newly contracted Pet!

  Many students tried to persuaded her to make it less, as its too tiring for the young cub to run that far, especially themselves, will they be alive after running that far?!

  But alas we got scolded instead.

  "You are talking big about wanted to be a strongest Beast Master, yet complaining about tired, weak, and soft like a jelly for just running 20 km?!

  Also, don't feel sorry for your Pet! They are have different body than normal animals. So, don't babying them!

  You all should realize than in the future you will fight alongside your Pet!

  Don't think about hiding behind them, while your Pet fighting for life and death battle alone.

  What will you do if you fighting a Wild Extraordinary Creatures and can't even run? Will you just standing there cowardly hiding waiting to be attacked? At least you could run for your life! Now, run Faster!"

  There's some truth in her word.

  But so what? In the end, bullshit about being stronger or fighting Wild Beast in the secret realm, She's dying just by running here! ??
