Chapter 22

Qin Bei did not understand.

"Next, Qin Bei!"

As a classmate finished awakening, he left, hopping along with his little wolf dog.

Finally, the Dean's mouth spoke Qin Bei's name.

Qin Bei took a deep breath, then stepped forward with determination.

"It's him, seems to be that self-awakened one, looks like a genius."

"I wonder what grade of pet beast he will summon."

"He just awakened a day earlier than us; I don't think it's a big deal."

"Mechanical talent, I've never seen it before."

With Qin Bei's appearance, the scene began to grow lively.

After all, Qin Bei, as the only one with self-awakened Beast Taming talent, though only for a day.

His great name had already spread throughout Gao San.

The old principal looked at Qin Bei with slight expectation.

He then gave Qin Bei a look of firm encouragement.

He bit his index finger.

He came before the black dimensional rift.

He extended his index finger.

Then squeezed out a drop of bright red blood.

Qin Bei focused entirely, his gaze fixed tightly on the blood drop, expectation flashing in his eyes.

Inside the dimensional rift, a flapping sound began to flash.

It was as if mechanical parts were constantly twisting.

Qin Bei watched with expectation in his eyes.

A small head poked out.

Qin Bei's expression became somewhat strange.

Not only him.

Everyone present, including the old principal.

Their faces began to change.

"This... is Qin Bei's beast?"

"Pfft, I'm dying of laughter! Can this thing block even one punch from you?"

"If he fights a person, others will probably laugh themselves to death."

"Hahaha, it's small and cute."

"No fear, actually, using this thing to flirt with girls seems not bad."

Appearing before Qin Bei was a constantly flying bat.

A silver-yellow mechanical bat.

About the size of a palm.

It spread a pair of small wings.

It had a pair of silver teeth.

The most attractive part.

Was the red circular eyes occupying half of its face.

It had no intimidation at all.

Instead, it was very cute.

"This... is my pet beast?"

Qin Bei felt somewhat conflicted.

To be honest, who wouldn't hope to summon a powerful and fierce pet beast?

But the fact is the opposite of reality.

Fierce and cute is fierce too, right?

"I've never seen this type of pet beast before, but mechanical series pet beasts are a bit different from other series."

"Their power depends on your modifications; although... yours is very small, as long as you put in the effort, a bat can become a giant dragon."

The old principal encouraged Qin Bei.

If Qin Bei hadn't seen the completely uncontrollable smile on the old principal's face.

Qin Bei almost believed him.

"Squeak~"

The mechanical bat circled constantly before Qin Bei, its two big red eyes blinking again and again.

It is truly cute.

Qin Bei's heart softened under its gaze.

Although it wasn't the awesome-looking beast he wanted, but!

What else could be done at this point?

At worst, I'll earn money later and modify it properly.

Thinking this, Qin Bei then extended his finger.

He pointed it between the mechanical bat's two big red eyes, revealing a bit of yellow area.

Qin Bei's eyes grew hazy, and he couldn't help but close them.

When consciousness returned once more,

he had already arrived in a pitch-black space.

In the dark space, a silver-yellow little bat hovered before Qin Bei.

"Squeak~" (Master~)

The voice was like that of a child, very crisp.

"Are you speaking?"

Qin Bei raised an eyebrow.

"Squeak (Yes)"

The little bat circled endlessly around Qin Bei.

"Squeak (After Master and I sign the contract, we can communicate. This is my mental space.)"

"So that's how it is. Then let's sign quickly."

Qin Bei nodded to show he understood.

The little bat fluttered and finally landed on Qin Bei's hand.

"Squeak (It might hurt a little)"

After the little bat finished speaking, a contract floated out from its body.

It bore characters Qin Bei could not read.

Yet Qin Bei understood the meaning they conveyed.

After he looked, a wisp of warm qi emerged from the little bat.

It entered his mind.

No… it should be his soul.

This qi must be the little bat's soul.

It was very weak.

Qin Bei felt he could squash it with a single slap.

Ahem, but he would not do such a thing.

After accepting this warm qi,

Qin Bei felt a strand of his own soul separate and come to the little bat's side.

"Contract complete."

The contract floating in the air then vanished.
