Beast Taming: My first spirit beast was a frog junior?

Chapter 56 The Historian

"What?! A silver-grade spirit beast!!!"

Xu Xian and Lu You were so shocked that they stood up.

Generally speaking, for a spirit beast to become a Beast Tamer, it must first evolve to the corresponding racial level, which is Silver.

Aside from a few who can break through racial barriers, most, like the Sword-Dancing Goose of Shizi, are stuck at this stage because their racial level is insufficient.

Otherwise, does he or the sword-wielding goose not want to break through?

Were they after the so-called reputation of the professional league?

These things are not even in the same league as those of lords.

However, for most spirit beasts in this world, the Bronze level is already their limit in terms of growth path.

This is also why Xu Xian gave up immediately upon seeing the Iron-Eating Beast.

It wasn't that he didn't want it, but the Gold Eater was a Silver species, so there was no need to consider whether it could evolve.

However, the resources required for the corresponding training were simply beyond what Xu Xian could afford in the early stages.

Instead of doing that, it would be better to first train a spirit beast that can reach the boss level.

After the first contracted spirit beast reaches a high level, the energy it feeds back is enough for Xu Xian's body and the spirit beast to complete their first level advancement.

In terms of the strength of the spirit beast, this means a major level increase, allowing you to contract a second spirit beast.

However, most people would not choose to contract a new spirit beast.

Elite beast tamers like Shi Shi would only make a contract if they were of the Silver rank.

However, trainers of the average age also have to consider their own physical and mental conditions.

Without the resources, contracting another one would only add to the trouble.

For example, Xu Xian.

Even if you give him a silver-tier seed, does he have the resources to raise it? Raising a wawa is like trying to make one dollar do two things.

Besides absorbing knowledge, they also think about how to make money every day.

Of course, if a silver-grade spirit beast were truly available, Xu Xian would definitely accept it without hesitation.

"Whose beast-taming space is this?" Xu Xian asked curiously.

The Dragon Kingdom has a recorded history of over ten thousand years, making it the most powerful nation in human history, without exception.

The Dragon Kingdom was established five hundred years ago, led by the Dragon Kingdom's guardian deity, Rainbow Dragon, and many powerful individuals built the society we know today.

Two thousand years ago...

The history lessons and books that Xu Xian studied were about the previous dynasty, the "Sword Dynasty".

The strongest being of the Sword Dynasty, the Sword Emperor, was indeed a legendary beast tamer, but he remembered that the Sword Emperor had perished outside the territory of human power.

It's impossible for something like the Beast Taming Space to be moved that far to Tree City.

Besides, if they died unexpectedly, there would be no time to deal with the aftermath, let alone leave behind a secret realm for future generations of humans.

But who else could it be but the Sword Emperor?

Xu Xian didn't remember that the textbook mentioned a second legendary beast tamer besides the Sword Emperor in the "Sword Dynasty".

While the Beast Taming Space can be learned and comprehended at the Lord level, it can only be mastered at the Legendary level to form its own unique realm.

Without the energy feedback from legendary spirit beasts, it would be impossible to support such a huge small world.

Xu Xian was very curious, and Lu Youqi pondered but had no answer. The two looked at Shi Yi, hoping that he would give them an answer.

Shi Yi said, "There are three people from the Sword Dynasty who occupy a lot of space in history textbooks: the Sword Emperor, his daughter Moon Sword King, and the Left Prime Minister Frost Sword King."

Xu Xian nodded in agreement, "After the Sword Emperor's unexpected fall, the Moon Sword King took over, with the Frost Sword King assisting him. These two were the most likely to break through to become legendary beast tamers at that time. Among them, the Frost Sword King was exceptionally talented and brilliant. At only sixty-one years old, he achieved the King level at the age of twenty-three, thirty years younger than the Moon Sword King, the former number one genius of the Sword Dynasty."

Lu Youqi asked, "Could it be that the Beast Taming Space Secret Realm in Tree City was left behind by him?"

He immediately shook his head again, "That's not right. In the ninth year after the Sword Emperor's fall, when the Frost Sword King reached the border, he was besieged by foreign enemies. He fought against three enemies and killed two king-level spirit beasts before dying. Even his corpse was devoured by the last surviving spirit beast that had besieged him. But in the eleventh year after the Sword Emperor's fall, when the current Jin City, which was the capital back then, was breached by many foreign enemies, the Moon Sword King fought valiantly and died. These are all recorded in history, and the whole process is very clear. How could this be..."

Shi nodded upon hearing this. The two youth training players he had taken in were indeed top students, able to gather all sorts of information with ease.

He laughed and said, "The historical records of the Sword Dynasty are so clear, haven't you ever wondered who recorded them?"

Xu Xian & Lu You: "!"

"The last king-level beast tamer of the Sword Dynasty, the eldest son of the Left Prime Minister Frost Sword King, the beast tamer 'Weapon King' born with the last bit of luck of the entire Sword Dynasty... no, it should be 'Weapon King' Ling Xiao!" Shi Shi said at this moment.

Shi Yan looked regretful, feeling sorry for Ling Xiao.

"According to the relevant information found by the association in the secret realm, this historian, who was not good at fighting and even had a record of being defeated by someone of a higher level, led a group of remaining experts to evade pursuit and eventually arrived at Tree City."

"With so much attention focused on him, the only surviving King-level Beastmaster, people kept dying during the escape. This historian, who was only a Weapon King at the time, took everyone into his Beastmaster Space to eke out a living."

"At the very end of his life, he used his remaining strength to break through the shackles and become a legendary beast tamer."

"Unfortunately, not only him, but even his legendary spirit beast suffered too many hidden injuries during the escape."

"In the end, it was just a fleeting moment of glory, a regret for a lifetime."

"Perhaps not wanting future generations to experience the fate of the Sword Dynasty, he left behind many legacies before his death, some belonging to the Sword Emperor and others to the many Sword Kings of the Sword Dynasty."

"Due to the special nature of the weapon emperor Lingxiao, silver-grade spirit beasts are not the limit of the spirit beast race level that can be obtained in the secret realm, and gold-grade spirit beasts may not be impossible."

Shi was excited as he spoke, but the thought of not being able to get in made him dejected.

Compared to his regretful expression, Xu Xian and Lu You's expressions were much more interesting.

No wonder students who are absolutely geniuses and can enter the three top universities and seven first-class universities come to Tree City.

However, given the possibility of golden-type spirit beasts appearing in the Artifact Emperor's Secret Realm, how could those top-tier family forces possibly...?

Without Xu Xian and Lu You needing to ask, Shi Xian could tell what they wanted to know just by looking at their faces.

He spoke first: "You want to ask why those students who have silver-grade spirit beasts aren't here, right?"

Shi sneered, "It's not that they don't want to, but that the association headquarters won't allow it."

Normally, Qian Hongwu would be a complete dimensional slash against ordinary students. If those students with silver-grade spirit beasts were to come, there would be no chance for ordinary students to rise up.

However, the restrictions imposed on them by the authorities won't last long.

"At most a year later, the Artifact Emperor's Secret Realm will be further opened, and anyone with strength at or below the advanced level can register to participate."

Shi Yi's cold smile faded, and he looked at Xu Xian and the other two with a serious expression. "So you must work hard to improve yourselves. The number of outside students will not exceed twenty. This situation is actually the best result the association has managed to achieve. If more geniuses get involved, and there are more competitors, each one of whom is very strong, your chances will naturally be much smaller."
