The second class was the beast taming class, and the class was held at Xiaoshoupo near Jianshou Peak.
Xiaoshoupo is considered to be an appendage of Jianshou Peak, specializing in raising some low-level spirit beasts. Seventy percent of them will be sent to the dining hall to be made into food, and the remaining ten percent of small attack-type spirit beasts are specially given to this group of new disciples to practice.
The theory of the beast taming course is very objective. The "Encyclopedia of Low-level Spiritual Beasts and Demonic Beasts" displayed by the elder alone has more than fifty thick volumes. Yun Feimiao was a little dumbfounded when he saw so many books.
After the elder finished his presentation, he smiled kindly at them and said, "Let me first show you how much you need to learn. It's not easy to finish learning all of this in the first three courses. You will need to work hard after class."
"But your generation is lucky! You don't need to carry these books to class every day. You only need to bring the communication jade slip. The book mark on the communication jade slip is a simple library. You can search for a lot of basic knowledge publicly available in the cultivation world."
After the elder finished speaking, he wrote two big words on the whiteboard on the wall - Protect Wealth.
"This is my name in the Wanjian Sect. Remember this. From now on, call me Elder Yucai."
Gong Zhuo raised his hand in confusion: "According to the rules, shouldn't you be called Elder Shoucai?"
After two days of classes, Gong Zhuo had a pretty good idea of what was going on. With the exception of Jian Xiao Peak and Jian Lu Peak, each of the other peaks had a deputy. For example, Jian Cang Peak's deputy was Elder Jian Yi, who was ranked fourth in the sect's swordsmanship, behind only the Sect Master, Xiao Peak Master, and Jian Lu Peak Master Tu.
For example, Elder Danlu is the person with the highest alchemy skills in Jiandan Peak besides Peak Master Baili, and Elder Fushou is the best talisman painter in Jianfu Peak besides Peak Master Fu...
By analogy, this person is the best beast tamer in Jianshou Peak besides Peak Master Yang, so his real name should be Beast What!
Elder Yucai objected: "How unpleasant is 'Shou'? Since the first year of Jianshou Peak, we have fixed the first character of the name on 'Yushang'! And how can 'Shoucai' be audible? 'Shoucai Shoucai' sounds like 'coffin'!"
Yucai is so good! It means that he can control money. Every spirit beast he controls can earn him countless small amounts of money.
"Alright, I won't be rambling any more. Open the book icon in the communication jade slip and search for 'Encyclopedia of Low-Level Spiritual Beasts and Demonic Beasts'. Then, use the pictures and text inside to identify each of the spiritual beasts and herbs on this mountain."
The spiritual plants on the Little Beast Hill are basically food for the spiritual beasts, so they are also among the compulsory subjects in the beast taming class.
Elder Yucai also gave them a comparison table in the communication jade slip, asking them to find the corresponding spiritual beasts and spiritual plants, take a photo and fill it in, and write down the relevant habits, and submit it after the get out of class.
Everyone simultaneously clutched the communication jade slips and began searching. Because all the spirit beasts and herbs on the mountain were scattered, and the "Encyclopedia of Low-Level Spirit Beasts and Demonic Beasts" was too thick to easily search, they spontaneously split into two groups: one dedicated to identifying spirit plants, led by Jiang Qingruo and Liu Songlan, and the other, led by Lu Baobao, to identifying spirit beasts.
This grouping made Gong Zhuo a little conflicted. On the one hand, he had a good impression of Jiang Qingruo and wanted to follow her. But that group also included Liu Songlan, who would definitely bring Luo Shuangbai with her, and he particularly disliked Luo Shuangbai.
Jiang Qingruo noticed his dilemma and smiled at Liu Songlan, "Senior Brother Liu, this little beast slope is quite large. How about we divide it into two areas, and you and I will each be responsible for one area?"
"Okay." Liu Songlan nodded and pulled Luo Shuangbai to the other side of the hillside.
When Gong Zhuo saw this, his eyes lit up and he immediately came over happily, and called Xie Yang and Yun Feimiao to follow.
Yun Feimiao shook his head. He wanted to go to Lu Baobao's place. After all, he had learned how to make medicinal liquids and knew all the low-level spiritual plants. He might as well learn how to recognize spiritual beasts.
Xie Yang understood what Yun Feimiao meant, waved to Gong Zhuo, and followed Yun Feimiao.
Gong Zhuo couldn't help but curl his lips: "He's really homosexual but inhumane. As soon as he met Junior Brother Yun, he stopped being my brother."
Jiang Qingruo said with a smile: "Then you follow?"
"No, no." Gong Zhuo put his arm around Jiang Qingruo's shoulders. "I have a new brother like you now. I was just starting to dislike my old brother."
Jiang Qingruo thought he was funny, and everything he said or did was interesting.
However, as fun as it is, you can’t just focus on playing during class.
To some extent, Jiang Qingruo agreed with Yun Feimiao's approach. Since they were attending classes, they should naturally engage in more things they didn't understand. But if everyone focused on things they didn't understand, their classwork would be a mess. Therefore, the leaders of the two groups could only choose the things they were most familiar with.
But they can’t learn new knowledge for the time being, and we can’t let other team members fail to learn it too!
So Jiang Qingruo pulled Gong Zhuo aside and taught him how to identify the spiritual herbs on the ground one by one. He spoke loudly so that the disciples around him could hear him.
Gong Zhuo felt sorry for his throat and quickly put a jade pendant for him to amplify his voice.
Seeing this, Xie Yang also handed a sound-amplifying jade pendant made by Gong Zhuo to Lu Baobao, who was teaching them the habits of low-level spirit beasts.
Lu Baobao quickly thanked him. She was a rather shy girl. She was fine talking to her fellow apprentices, but when she spoke to fellow apprentices she wasn't familiar with, she found it difficult to open her mouth, let alone speak clearly.
Yun Feimiao had previously thought that she had a sore throat, and felt sorry for her for developing so many health problems from her physical training, so she specially gave her some throat lozenges.
Lu Baobao was very touched and thought that his fellow brothers and sisters were all good people and there was nothing to be nervous about!
She clenched her fists, encouraged herself, and cast a spell to release her aura. The surrounding spirit beasts immediately ran towards Lu Baobao one after another.
Everyone was stunned by this scene. He was indeed a disciple of Jianshou Peak. This move was too powerful, right?
Elder Yucai rolled his eyes, thinking that they couldn't teach this at Jianshou Peak; he himself couldn't do it! This was simply the unique skill of their Beizhou Lu family, which could transform the aura on their body into the purest earth energy. Not only would it attract spirit beasts, but spirit plants would also like it!
Therefore, the Lu family, like the Jiang family, thrived by planting whatever they could. The difference was that the Jiang family understood the medicinal properties of each spiritual plant and then carefully cultivated them accordingly, striving to ensure that all of them grew well. The Lu family, on the other hand, seemed to be naturally more interested in spiritual beasts. They only planted the spiritual plants they would use regularly and the ones their spiritual beasts would eat. Their planting method was simply to scatter seeds and plant seedlings randomly, as long as they could survive.
Lu Baobao kept two of each spirit beast and persuaded the others to leave. But the spirit beasts were reluctant to leave and formed a huge circle within the range where Lu Baobao could be seen, which frightened many people.
Lu Baobao was accustomed to such scenes. He pulled out the attacking animals and let them demonstrate their attack methods one by one.
Seeing the usually extremely violent and aggressive little beasts being so well-behaved and obedient in front of Lu Baobao, hitting wherever he pointed, Elder Yucai felt jealous.
If he had this ability, he could also perform with his spirit beast to make money, but unfortunately he doesn't.
