Chapter 5
"Although you have a C-level talent, the power that C-level talents can exert is not necessarily weaker than B-level talents throughout the ages, and some can even compete with A-level talents."
"Your C-level talent is not necessarily weaker than my B-level talent, so... you still have to work hard to improve yourself." Lu Ziming thought for a moment and said.
The two came to Huimin Restaurant and ordered three dishes and a soup very luxuriously.
"By the way, I haven't asked you what spirit beast you chose? Your B-level talent [Confused Illusion] should choose a spirit beast with mental control skills, right?" Zhou Cang asked curiously.
"Hehe... My spirit beast does have mental control skills, look." After Lu Ziming said this, he directly summoned his spirit beast from the beast control space.
A blue butterfly half the size of a palm appeared in front of the two, flying around them.
"Illusion butterfly?" Zhou Cang said in surprise.
Illusion Butterfly, a rare spiritual beast, can confuse the opponent's mind after activating skills. Among civilians, it is considered a very high-level spiritual beast.
"Congratulations! This illusion butterfly can maximize your talent." Zhou Cang smiled and congratulated.
B-level talent [Confusing Illusion] is considered an auxiliary talent, which is very popular in the expedition team.
...
After a full meal, Zhou Cang received a message from the instructor of Tianyu Branch College on his way home.
"Student Zhou Cang, please come to the office at 5 pm."
Zhou Cang rushed to Tianyu Branch College as soon as he received the message. If nothing unexpected happened, the instructor should want to discuss the future development route with Zhou Cang.
Tianyu College has a tradition of concentrating resources on training talented beast masters, while beast masters with average talents enjoy ordinary treatment.
Zhou Cang was a little puzzled. His talent was only C-level, so why did he have to talk alone?
Half an hour later, in the tutor's office of Tianyu Branch College
An intellectual beauty sat on a chair with her legs crossed, looking at Zhou Cang with a smile on her face.
This is Zhou Cang's tutor in the 'Xuan' class, Luo Li.
It is rumored that many male students in Tianyu Branch College want to enter the 'Xuan' class, not because of the rich resources and benefits of the Xuan class, but because of Luo Li.
The knowledge of beast control is boring. If a beautiful teacher comes to give lectures, the experience will be completely different.
"Teacher Zhao." Zhou Cang nodded.
"Sit down." Luo Li said softly.
Zhou Cang noticed that a furry little head poked out of Luo Li's coat, which only appeared for a moment and then shrank back.
"Phantom beast?" Zhou Cang exclaimed in his heart.
The phantom beast that he just glimpsed is similar to Lu Ziming's phantom butterfly, but it is obvious that the power exerted by the two spirit beasts is completely different.
At the moment when the fantasy beast stretched out its head again, Zhou Cang tried to read the information of this spirit beast.
[Fantasy Beast]
[Level: Unknown]
[Grade: Unknown]
[Bloodline: Unknown]
[Talent: Unknown]
[Skill: Unknown]
...
"Puff..." Luo Li laughed out loud when she saw Zhou Cang's confused look.
"Humans cannot directly read the information of spirit beasts, but after awakening their talents, they can borrow the abilities of spirit beasts that have already reached a contract, but there is also a prerequisite, that is, the level of the spirit beast you have is greater than the level of the other party." Luo Li said with a smile.
"Uh... This... Teacher Zhao, I'm sorry, I'm abrupt." Zhou Cang said apologetically.
Spirit beasts are equivalent to a second life for beastmasters. Their skills and talents are generally kept confidential and will not be easily shown to others.
Zhou Cang was just in a momentary impulse, but this behavior was indeed very abrupt.
"It's a little naughty, so I usually don't let it out." Luo Li shook her head gently and said with a smile, as if she didn't care about Zhou Cang's behavior just now.
"Okay, let's get back to the point. Your talent is C-level [Spiritual Amplification], but the one who signed the contract is... the Black Dragon Turtle?" Luo Li flipped through the information on the table, looked up and down at Zhou Cang, with a hint of disbelief on her face.
The Black Dragon Turtle is an ancient mythical beast. Not to mention the Tianyu Branch Academy, even in the entire Tianyu Continent, there are less than 20 of them.
And the beastmasters with the blood of ancient mythical beasts have all become the top combat forces of the Tianyu Empire.
No wonder the dean of the branch kept Zhou Cang's information separately and added the words "top secret".
At first Luo Li thought it was a mistake made by the staff, but now it seems... Zhou Cang must be hiding some shocking secrets.
"You... Teacher Zhao, you know everything?" Zhou Cang's face changed slightly and exclaimed.
"There's nothing I don't know, it just depends on whether I want to know. Don't worry, the entire branch academy is except for me and the dean."Master, no one knows that you have signed a contract with Xuanwu."
"Zhou Cang, you are now the focus of training in the branch academy. I have prepared two plans for you. You can choose one." Luo Li's face returned to normal and said softly.
There are dozens of branch academies under Tianyu Academy. There is basically one in each jurisdiction of Tianyu Continent, and the management methods are also different.
The branch academy where Zhou Cang is located has been established for nearly two hundred years. It can stand firm for such a long time because of its unique training method.
"What plan?"
The academy wants to invest, and Zhou Cang will naturally not refuse.
Although the black dragon turtle is an ancient mythical beast, Zhou Cang also has the talent of SSS-level [Initiation Return], but the advantage in the early stage is not too obvious, and at this time it requires more massive resources.
"The first one, the academy will provide you with a part of the start-up funds and supply you with resources at the same time. "
"For the second option, the academy will arrange some training tasks for you. It's a lie to say there is no risk, but the risk will not be too great. In addition, the start-up funds and resources provided to you by the second option are several times that of the first option." Luo Li said seriously.
Zhou Cang chose the second option without even thinking about it.
Although the first option is safe and the most secure, there is a saying that goes, how can you see the rainbow without going through the wind and rain?
Zhou Cang is unwilling to be a flower in a greenhouse. One day, Zhou Cang will have to fight a desperate battle with aliens. Before that, only through hundreds of battles can he have a better chance of survival.
What's more, this seems to be a choice, but isn't it a test for Zhou Cang by the branch academy?
With the branch academy as Zhou Cang's backing, he can save a lot of trouble on the road of beast control, but the harvest is extremely rich.
"I choose the second option." Zhou Cang replied without hesitation.
"You... made a very wise choice. The experience arranged by the branch academy for you will only benefit you, not harm you. "Luo Li smiled calmly and said softly.
"There are 500,000 spirit stones stored here. Keep them. In addition, the branch academy will allocate resources from time to time based on your performance."
