Protagonist:

Shen Yao

"Miss Shen, your Mountain-Moving Turtle is developing normally; I believe it won't be long before it enters the maturity stage."

The breeder set down the instrument in hand, smiling as she walked over to Shen Yao's side.

"Anything to note time-wise?" Normal Mountain-Moving Turtle development is rather slow, while Xiao Shan's advancement accelerated because of its own special circumstances.

Although no trouble has been left behind for now, there's no guarantee problems won't arise later.

Ever since Xiao Shan's body growth gradually slowed, Shen Yao had kept the habit of giving it a checkup every month; the breeder before her was also her long-term partner, basically saying whatever she had to say, with no concealment or deception.

"Nothing particularly needs attention; it's just that the Mountain-Moving Turtle's trait mutation is uncontrolled, and it's very likely to grow in size again after advancing to the maturity stage." The breeder didn't guarantee the accuracy of her words, so she added some ambiguous remarks in her speech.

Shen Yao hummed and nodded, then saw the breeder off.

Of course, having cooperated for several years, both sides were closer than normal clients.

Considering the new business she was about to launch, Shen Yao sincerely invited the breeder to join, offering a generous salary, cheap housing, and arrangements for all family members, "You can consider it slowly during this period."

"I will."

The breeder smiled and waved at Shen Yao, then turned around and left by vehicle.

"Houji houji"

Behind Shen Yao, Xiao Shan walked over slowly, propping up its body already three stories tall, and the ground inevitably trembled.

"You'll have to trouble you to patiently wait a few more days; the suburbs have more space and are more suitable for living."

The breeding farm's affairs were on track, only the final finishing stage remained.

Patting Xiao Shan's limbs—too thick to fully encircle with both hands—with a touch of heartache, Shen Yao could only keep urging the breeding farm to speed up, so as to free Xiao Shan, who felt stifled staying at the residence.

It was simply that Xiao Shan's body grew too fast; the trait-mutated Mountain-Moving Turtle changed every day, and after smoothly entering the development stage, its appetite opened wide.

If not for Shen Yao's family having some assets, they simply couldn't afford this big eater before them.

"Houji houji"

Xiao Shan wanted to lower its head and nuzzle Shen Yao, but its body was truly too large; seen from afar it looked like a moving small mountain, truly worthy of its species name.

"All right, all right, I'm fine; go eat."

Seeing it was nearly noon, Shen Yao noticed someone not far away already carrying processed beast meat out from the residence, and quickly signaled Xiao Shan not to stand at the doorway.

Huff

The rumbling sound weakened somewhat after Xiao Shan walked away; Shen Yao raised a hand and patted her cheek, feeling fortunate in her heart that Li Suyan had considered safety and privacy when giving the house—the neighborhood around the residence was quite far away, otherwise, given Xiao Shan's huge size, it would probably be frequently complained about.

Better to hurry up and finish breeding until it's close to the maturity stage; as long as she mastered the skill of enlarging and shrinking, these current worries would no longer be problems.

"Mommy" "Mommy"

Shen Yao entered the door and came face to face with Xinxin and Mimi running toward her; the two children with cute little sister buns now ran and jumped nimbly, being the family's number-one destruction players.

"Meow"

The chased Xiao Guai, fur flying, leaped up and jumped onto the high platform in the distance.

"Xiao Guai kitty"

"Kitty"

Xinxin and Mimi pointed at the already-jumped-away Xiao Guai, pouting their little mouths and acting coquettish toward Shen Yao.

If nothing unexpected happened, the three of them had just been playing a one-sided chasing mini-game in the room—Xinxin and Mimi chasing, Xiao Guai patiently running.

After all, feline pet beasts were famous for respecting the old and loving the young; even though Xiao Guai grew larger after entering the maturity stage and its temper became more fierce, having mastered the enlarging and shrinking skill, it could change its body at any time.

Besides, Xinxin and Mimi truly liked Xiao Guai; even when sleeping they were unwilling to let go—what could Xiao Guai do? It could only bitterly serve as a little assistant for childcare, every day exhausting its patience to play enough time with the two little ones.

"Meow meow"

Xiao Guai lay on the high platform, raised a paw, and elegantly licked its fur.

Shen Yao helplessly reached out and hugged the two little ones: "Xiao Guai is a bit tired; let's go back to the room to eat first."

Pet beast childcare was useful, but one couldn't keep harvesting wool without letting go.

Xinxin and Mimi each hugged Shen Yao's neck; the two little ones nodded left and right, indicating they would obediently listen and wait until Xiao Guai kitty rested before playing again.

Shen Yao:...

That would probably have to wait until tomorrow; after all, Xiao Guai still had cat nature, loving freedom and running, and the time it could be confined in a room wasn't much.

Without telling the truth to discourage the two little ones' enthusiasm, Shen Yao put them on the living room chairs, then brought over the prepared dishes from the kitchen.

Xinxin and Mimi were children with very strong independence; once they could run and jump, they liked to rely on themselves, and now they spoke so fluently—where would they still need Shen Yao to feed them?

Holding their bowls and chopsticks, burying their little heads down, Xinxin and Mimi quickly filled their little bellies.

At this time, Shen Cheng and Shen Ying, who had been staying in the upstairs room, also came downstairs unsteadily to eat.

Shen Yao looked at their half-asleep appearance and helplessly shook her head: "It's still early; it's just wilderness training. With the Mountain-Moving Turtle's unique defensive attribute, nothing will happen."

Having attended Beast Taming University for over a year, with many practical lessons, why are you still timid?

Shen Cheng and Shen Ying pursed their lips, each saying practical training and wilderness experience were different; just thinking about really spending the night in the wilderness, both had varying degrees of worry and fear.

It wasn't that they were truly cowardly, but rather the fear of the unknown surrounded them; as the saying went, no matter how much was said, it wasn't as good as doing it once—probably only after the wilderness experience ended smoothly could they break free from this emotion.

"Sister, you also went to the wilderness for training back then; is there anything to note?"

Shen Ying straightforwardly sought Shen Yao's advice, even though she herself had browsed many posts and videos about related experiences these past two days.

"Understand the surrounding environment, master concrete information, prepare for the worst outcome in advance, and make plans to leave early," Shen Yao pushed the served rice toward both of them, then served some soup and brought it to the two children, "The wilderness is inherently dangerous; even if the possibility of an accident is low, that doesn't mean there's no possibility.

You two are on a solo mission this time; as long as you complete the requirements, you can return early."

The overall difficulty isn't great, just slightly tedious, and every year there are personnel who die in the wilderness because of this.

Completely relying on Beast Taming University to reach out and save you is simply not valuing your own life.

Back during the Secret Realm practice, nearly half the entire Beast Taming Squad died; the number of graduates was the lowest in years.

Right now, Shen Cheng and Shen Ying's wilderness training is nothing compared to that; the intensity is nowhere near the same level.

After pondering for a moment, Shen Yao recounted her experience gathering outside these past few years, reminding Shen Cheng and Shen Ying to do their homework well in advance, avoid conflict with others unless necessary, and not to show mercy or hold back if there is truly no room for recovery.

In three years, Shen Cheng and Shen Ying not only successfully awakened Beast Tamer talent, hatched the turtle egg and contracted the Mountain-Moving Turtle, but also got into Beast Taming University through their own efforts; they are now sophomores, and soon they will have to undergo the school's strict Secret Realm practice to pass their internship and graduate.

Shen Yao planned to focus on cultivating the two of them, so for this wilderness training (an appetizer), Shen Yao hoped they would complete it beautifully.

"Experience can be accumulated, but mindset needs to be corrected; coincidentally, the shop isn't busy this period, so I will accompany you on this wilderness training."

As her words fell, Shen Cheng and Shen Ying instantly revealed smiles of immense relief.

But before they could be happy for even a minute, they heard Shen Yao continue, "I will only act in critical moments; this wilderness training is still for you to temper yourselves, you must think clearly," this also concerns the allocation and tilt of inherent family resources in the future.

Shen Yao's ability to save up this bit of family assets wasn't purely from the wind blowing it in.

If Shen Cheng and Shen Ying want to go further, they must prove their value to Shen Yao; only seeing rich returns will she invest additional resources without counting the cost.

Shen Cheng and Shen Ying didn't continue speaking; the expressions on their faces both held varying degrees of seriousness.

In three years, they haven't just grown older without growing wiser.

The Shen Family becoming increasingly wealthy is entirely thanks to the eldest sister supporting it single-handedly.

The two of them have contributed nothing to the Shen Family; on the contrary, the Shen Family, even the eldest sister, has poured countless resources into them.

No matter what, they must repay the Shen Family, even if their ultimate achievements are limited.

…………

What Shen Cheng and Shen Ying thought of in the end, what resolve they made, Shen Yao knew nothing of it.

Because Shen Yao was handling the breeding farm matters; the already-operational breeding farm covers a very large area, with numerous Mortal Tier Pet Beasts penned inside.

Completely different from the Breeding Room's scale; the Mortal Tier Pet Beasts here are all entrance food, the key breeding targets are pet beasts with large meat yield and fast reproduction.

Of course, the Lop-Eared Rabbit and Bell Wind Beast are accidents; these two varieties sell like hotcakes at the Chong Wu Te Chan Dian, so they also have a place in the breeding farm, specially retained by Shen Yao.

Xiao Shan has also been transferred from the Residence to the slope behind the breeding farm.

All these are sites Shen Yao bought with money, including the Mortal Tier Pet Beast groups inside the breeding farm, almost exhausting all her liquid capital.

Also thanks to the shop operating well, a considerable amount of money flows in every day.

"Boss"

Beside her is the Shop Assistant Shen Yao hired with money, temporarily responsible for the entire breeding farm's operation.

"Nothing much here, you handle the arrangements," there are Breeders (won over by Shen Yao with salary and other conditions) constantly monitoring pet beast conditions inside the breeding farm, relevant channels also opened up in advance by Shen Yao (mainly the Chong Wu Te Chan Dian and other friends with good connections), as long as one isn't a Stupid Person, they won't lose out.

Waving her hand to let the person go down and get busy, Shen Yao gave Xiao Shan a few more instructions, then left.

At Home, Shen Cheng and Shen Ying were waiting for Shen Yao to return, because it was time for wilderness training; if not held up by the breeding farm matters, they should have headed to the wilderness long ago.

"Going now isn't late either; you two picked Yugu Valley Mountain Range, have you looked into the situation there?"

Shen Yao walked in front holding Xiao Guai, who had already shrunk to arm-length, with Shen Cheng and Shen Ying and their contracted pet beast Mountain-Moving Turtle following behind.

Shen Cheng and Shen Ying's Mountain-Moving Turtles don't have the heaven-defying capability of Shen Yao's Mountain-Moving Turtle, but in terms of physique they still suppress other Mortal Tier or Yellow Tier turtle types.

The three siblings didn't choose to ride a flying vehicle, but took the official public bus to Yugu Valley Mountain Range.

Of course, this arrangement also has to do with Yugu Valley Mountain Range's special nature.

Who let the development rights of Yugu Valley Mountain Range be in official hands; unlike other mountain ranges or dense forests that can be entered freely, Yugu Valley Mountain Range requires an official ticket.

Shen Cheng and Shen Ying got the qualification to enter Yugu Valley Mountain Range because they are Beast Taming University students.

As for Shen Yao? She simply bought one from a friend, counting as a small loss.

"Sister, Second Young Master and I have pretty much figured out the internal situation of Yugu Valley Mountain Range."

Although the mountain range interior is undulating, with deep valleys and cliff precipices complementing each other, they are only training in the outer area and not entering the mountain range's internal situation, so they aren't that afraid.

Shen Cheng added two sentences after Shen Ying finished, the gist being that after these days of staying up late to cram, they have figured out the general situation of Yugu Valley Mountain Range.

Purely conducting wilderness training in the Periphery/Outer Area or near the inner area, even if the time dragged on, as long as they can accumulate experience it's fine.

"Sister, we plan to conduct wilderness training during this period including the upcoming holiday," right now is a trial, to understand themselves while also knowing the upper and lower limits, make good arrangements, otherwise rushing up foolishly, they'd die without knowing how.

Shen Yao glanced over then withdrew her gaze, "As long as you two have a bottom line in your hearts."

Mm, at least they aren't lazy eggs waiting for everything to be fed to their mouths; passable.

Mentally evaluating them, Shen Yao raised her hand and stroked Xiao Guai in her arms, listening to the purring cat sounds, her whole person quieting down along with it.

Shen Cheng and Shen Ying sat in the chairs behind Shen Yao discussing softly with each other; two quite large Mountain-Moving Turtles tucked their limbs into their shells, looking wronged and aggrieved; although the officially modified vehicles all have varying degrees of heightening operations, they still aren't very friendly to large pet beasts.

There's no helping it; only mature-stage pet beasts have a chance to master the enlargement/reduction skill; Shen Cheng and Shen Ying's Mountain-Moving Turtles are raised very well, but wanting to break through from juvenile stage to mature stage takes far more time than Shen Yao's Xiao Shan.

As the passenger flow on the vehicle increased, various pet beasts were led in.

Shen Yao sat silently in her seat without moving, until a youth wearing low-key luxurious clothes but with a very unhappy face suddenly came in front.

The youth held a long-haired dog somewhat resembling a Yue Xia Dog, but Shen Yao knew this wasn't a Yue Xia Dog, but a Yellow Tier Pet Beast Yue Zai Dog more ferocious and brutal than the Yue Xia Dog.

Although only Yellow Tier, it has capability not inferior to a general Xuan Tier Pet Beast.

And Yue Zai Dogs are rare, breeding is demanding; looks like this youth's background is either rich or noble, otherwise he simply couldn't contract this type of dog breed.

The beautiful, domineering Yue Zai Dog walked toward the rear with its head held high; the Qixian stirred up around it made weak Mortal Tier or Yellow Tier pet beasts retreat and whimper one after another.

The people on the vehicle aren't Stupid People; the youth's such obviously arrogant behavior must have backing; they can only silently endure the provocation just now, lowering their heads to soothe their own pet beasts.
