Insufficient balance

  Ya Tou lay on her side in bed, gazing at Zheng Feng who was fast asleep. She thought to herself: There's only half a month left, I'll be leaving soon, you must endure, no matter what, Ya Tou sister will definitely find you and bring you back to my side.

  Zheng Feng seemed to sense something and squeezed into Ya Tou's arms.

  A night without words

  The next morning

  Ya Tou gently shook Zheng Feng's shoulder and called out: "Xiao Feng, wake up!"

  "Umm... let me sleep a bit longer, sister Ya Tou." Zheng Feng responded with his eyes still closed.

  "No, get up quickly and come with me to learn about beast taming." The servant girl ignored Zheng Feng's words and directly pulled him off the bed.

  Zheng Feng discontentedly shouted: "Don't, it's those boring things again, I don't want to learn anymore. Sister Ya Tou, why do you always make me learn those recently? They're not fun at all."

  After a night, the medicine applied last night took effect, and Zheng Feng's swelling subsided a lot. Although his face was still slightly swollen, it was much better than the "pig head" appearance before, at least people could recognize who he was. When he shouted, there was no pain anywhere. Seeing that he had recovered so well, originally planning to let him rest for a few days with injuries, now there was no need.

  The girl naturally had a way to make Zheng Feng obediently follow her to study, and she smiled and said: "If you don't get up again, I'll take you to eat 'honey'." The girl intentionally emphasized the two words "honey".

  Zheng Feng immediately shivered and didn't say anything else. He obediently put on his clothes, got out of bed, and followed Yatou to study.

  Behind the mountain, Zheng Feng obediently sat on a rock, while the girl stood in front of him and said: "Do you still remember what I taught you before?"

  Zheng Feng was about to turn up his nose and proudly replied: "It's the same thing every day, of course I remember."

  The girl saw his arrogant look and held back her laughter, instead asking: "Then tell me, what's going on?"

  "Humans have a mysterious power within us from birth, which we call the Beast Soul Power. It is said to be one of the blessings given by the Supreme God, another blessing being the Beast Soul Contract."

  However, although everyone has beast soul power, the amount of beast soul power in their bodies still varies from person to person. When the beast soul power reaches a certain standard, they can sign a contract with a soul beast.

  "The contract with the beast soul cannot be signed casually. Everyone's beast soul power in their body has its own attributes, and most people's attributes are mainly earth, water, fire, and wind, so these four attributes are called the four major attributes."

  "There are also a small number of people with attributes of light and darkness, although these two types of people are rare, they have a certain degree of restraint on the four major attributes, and mutually restrain each other."

  "So, Beastmasters with Light and Dark attributes will be more powerful than those with the four major attributes, which is why Light and Dark attributes are called superior attributes."

  "There are also some people who do not belong to these six attributes, such as ice attribute, thunder attribute, blood attribute, chaos attribute, etc. They are called variant attributes. The number of people with a single variant attribute may not be many, but the total number of all categories cannot be underestimated."

  "The most special person is someone who has multiple attributes of beast soul power within their body, for example, you, sister Yaotou."

  Zheng Feng said this and swallowed his saliva. He didn't know if he had said something wrong, and was a bit worried, so he looked up at his sister Lian Tou.

  Zheng Feng didn't find any problem, then continued to say: "However, opposing attributes cannot coexist like water and fire, earth and wind, light and darkness. No matter what attribute a person is, they must choose a soul beast with the same attribute as themselves to sign a Soul Contract, and both parties of the contract must be completely voluntary."

  "Once the contract is formed, we can use our own beast soul power to nurture the soul beasts, enhance their strength, and even let them mutate and evolve."

  "It's worth noting that once the contract is formed, it cannot be changed, so when choosing a soul beast, you must be extremely cautious. Some soul beasts are strong at birth but have limited growth potential, while others may be weak but have room for evolution. The choice of which soul beast to choose depends on personal preference."

  "So, if the signed soul beast and your own attribute do not match, then when you use your own beast soul power to raise it, it is usually twice as difficult. If they are opposing attributes, then it is simply impossible to raise. Although most wild soul beasts also choose to sign contracts with humans who have the same attribute as themselves."

  However, there are also some soul beasts that are raised from eggs and forced to sign contracts as soon as they are born. At that time, the soul beast is unable to resist, so some people may force a contract if they obtain an egg of a powerful soul beast, unless it has opposing attributes.

  "The simplest way to get the soul beast's approval is to defeat it, but not absolutely, depending on the soul beast's nature. Some timid soul beasts will surrender as soon as they are injured, while others will rather die than submit, such as light-attribute soul beasts, which usually belong to the latter category. To gain their approval, one can only try to move them with emotions or wait for them to voluntarily sign a contract."

  "While some soul beasts can be defeated, but only under certain conditions, you must defeat it alone and uprightly, without seeking help from others or resorting to cunning schemes."

  "The strength of one's own beast soul power is also closely related to whether or not they have obtained the recognition of a soul beast. The more powerful the soul beast, the greater the beast soul power required. If you don't have enough beast soul power after signing the contract, you won't be able to sustain the soul beast and it will definitely backlash against its master."

  "Most soul beasts usually transform into beast tattoos and sleep on their master's body, absorbing the power of the beast soul to grow. They only wake up when their master calls them. There are also soul beasts that don't like to sleep, they will maintain their original shape and follow their master, of course, the absorption of the beast soul power is not affected. Moreover, the required beast soul power is more than that of the attached beast tattoos, so understanding the habits of the soul beasts is also very important."

  "Beast Soul Power can not only be used to feed the contracted soul beasts, but also to strengthen oneself. For example, by concentrating Beast Soul Power on a certain part of the body, that part can instantly gain extraordinary strength or become as hard as steel."

  "When the body is constantly baptized by the beast soul power, it will have the same effect as the refining body master, but it won't produce 'qi'. Therefore, a powerful beast soul master can completely reach the same physical level as a refining body master. However, most beast soul masters mainly use their beast soul power to raise soul beasts, and only a small portion is used to baptize their bodies. After all, the effect of soul beasts absorbing beast soul power far surpasses that of the human body absorbing it."

  "While those who continue to cultivate and increase their own beast soul power are called Beast Soul Masters. The ranking of the Beast Soul Masters is determined by the size of their own beast soul power."

  "To reach the entry level of Beast Soul Master, the Beast Soul Power must exceed 100;

  the subsequent Beast Tamer must exceed 1,000;

  Beast Master must exceed 5,000;

  Spirit Beast Tamer must exceed 10,000;

  Spirit Beast Master must exceed 50,000;

  Earth Beast Master must exceed 100,000;

  Heavenly Beast Master must exceed 300,000;

  Sacred Beast Master must exceed 600,000;

  Divine Beast Master must exceed 900,000;

  the legendary Beast God must break through the million mark."

  Zheng Feng himself became more and more spirited as he spoke, showing no signs of stopping. Looking at his enthusiastic expression, where was the disgust he mentioned about horse riding knowledge? It was clear that he was deeply fascinated. That sentence of disgust was just a momentary outburst.

  ……

  Ya Tou looked at Zheng Feng with a sense of relief. Although he said he hated these beast-riding skills, he still remembered what she had told him in his mind.

  The girl knew she didn't have much time left with him, only half a month remained.

  For this half month, whether to maintain the ordinary days or teach him the true rules of survival here, her heart is in great conflict. Ya Tou doesn't want him to change, she just wants to keep hearing him happily call her 'Ya Tou Jie Jie'.

  But more often than not, the things you don't want to change are the ones that will change. To describe what Xiao Tou is thinking now in one sentence: Fantasy is beautiful, but reality is cruel.
