Chapter 175

"Fortunately, my teacher stopped me back then. After slowly getting to know each other, I gradually grew accustomed to his presence."

"Moreover, this little scorpion has saved my life more than once."

Chi Xiaoman wore a gentle expression.

Qin Bei poked Ya's head.

"Can you cook?"

"Master~ I can learn~"

Ya said in a sweet, coquettish voice.

"By the way, if it's not necessary, it's best not to keep Beast Tamers' pets in the Beast Space. They are living beings too; in a vast, empty space with no other beasts, they would feel afraid."

"Perhaps when you reach Tier 5, you can condense your spiritual power into a clone, allowing you to enter the Beast Space."

"On ordinary days, you can let them stay outside."

Then, Chi Xiaoman spoke about the little details of getting along with companion beasts.

Everyone listened intently.

It was clearly noticeable.

The relationship between Beast Tamers and their companion beasts grew closer.

The most obvious sign was this:

During lunch in the cafeteria.

Companion beasts followed their Beast Tamers everywhere.

Their appearances were all kinds of strange.

There were no classes in the afternoon.

Qin Bei planned to stay in his room to cultivate the Sun and Moon cultivation method.

However, he had only just begun cultivating for a short while.

when a knocking sound came from the door.

Qin Bei glanced sideways.

Ya very conscientiously went to open the door.

Standing at the door was none other than Chi Xiaoman.

"Why have you come?"

Qin Bei asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I'm here to give you some extra tutoring."

Chi Xiaoman covered her mouth and laughed softly.

"That's really kind of you."

Qin Bei rolled his eyes.

He then poured a cup of tea for Chi Xiaoman.

"To be honest, I'm here to educate you on Beast Taming knowledge. After all, barring any unexpected events, I might become your senior sister later."

Chi Xiaoman said with a beaming smile.

"Oh? What do you want to say?"

Qin Bei said with keen interest.

"Your companion beast is of a type unheard of, so I won't presume to teach you about that aspect. What I can tell you is the general situation of the Beast Taming world."

"The categories of companion beasts, the history of Beast Tamers."

"Do you know how the first Beast Tamers appeared?"

Chi Xiaoman suddenly looked at Qin Bei.

Qin Bei shook his head; how would he know about such matters?

The history of this world was inherently vague and unclear.

"The only combat profession at the very beginning was the Martial Artist."

"Once, two powerful Martial Artists fought, and accidentally tore open a dimensional rift, from which the first companion beast was born."

"The Dawn Dragon!"

"It brought a new dawn to Great Xuan."

"Later, this continued to grow slowly. Over a thousand years, it gradually formed the three major professions we see today."

"Speaking of companion beasts, one cannot help but mention dimensional rifts."

"How vast the dimensional rifts truly are is unknown to anyone; what the environment inside is actually like, we humans still know nothing about."

"Even the companion beasts do not fully understand the space within the dimensional rifts."

"Companion beasts are broadly divided into animals, insects, undead, mechanical, and special life forms."

"Animals are roughly common creatures like lions and tigers; insects include spiders and scorpions. Both categories of companion beasts require the aid of potions to evolve."

"The undead are different; they seem to be a special species within the dimensional rifts. When summoned, they appear as skeletons. Their evolution involves devouring the bones and souls of other living beings."

"As for mechanical ones, I don't know if your companion beast counts as mechanical. Mechanical beasts have one advantage: when our human thermal weapons are equipped on them, their power increases."

"Therefore, the mechanical type is especially popular in the military. They are constantly deployed to suppress Secret Realms, and the high firepower of mechanical companion beasts is very suitable for such an environment."

"As for special types, there are quite a few, such as elves, giant dragons, and others that exceed ordinary people's imagination; these are special companion beasts."

"These are basically common knowledge at the university level; I am just telling you in advance."

After Chi Xiaoman finished speaking, she took a sip of the water on the table.

She then widened her eyes.

She looked at Qin Bei with disbelief.

"What kind of water is this!?"

Qin Bei, who was busy digesting the intelligence, froze.

He turned his head to look at Chi Xiaoman.

"What water? I don't know either. I got it inside a ferocious beast's nest."

Qin Bei said truthfully.

The water Chi Xiaoman was drinking was exactly what he had obtained in the cave of the Man Tian Giant.

Even now, he still didn't know what this thing was.

It just felt very effective for soaking in a bath.

Drinking it was also fine.

"Why do I feel... this thing looks exactly like a Tier 5 treasure, Flexible Water?"

Chi Xiaoman's voice trembled.

"What is Flexible Water?"

Qin Bei asked curiously.

"A particularly precious water. Soaking in it can make your body more supple, increase your constitution, and wash your marrow."

"If taken internally, it can put the human spirit into a dormant state, offering a great boost to meditation."

Chi Xiaoman explained.

"Didn't you think to use the Encyclopedia Watch to investigate it?"

Qin Bei shook his head.

"I already checked. The watch said there are too many types to distinguish."

On the very day he obtained the Encyclopedia Watch, he had been constantly testing it out of curiosity.

Like his own clothes, and all the messy things inside the Mechanical Space.

Of course, that included that bottle of water.

"I see..."

Chi Xiaoman thought for a moment; indeed, after all, it was just water.

Looking at it purely, you really couldn't tell anything.

"Regardless, this thing is very precious. Just the small sip I drank is worth at least a hundred thousand."

Chi Xiaoman looked at Qin Bei seriously.

"It's fine. Consider it a reward for you revealing the intelligence."

Qin Bei shook his head; he didn't care much about such things.

Besides, he still had several bottles of this water.
