Chapter 68: Chapter 68: He’s Glowing! (Three Updates)


Zheng Yong, along with more than ten other Beast Tamers, waited outside the door.


These Pet Beasts, prepared to serve as ’models’ for the Breeders, were offered as experimental subjects for the class at no cost.


However, this free class opportunity was fiercely contested by countless well-connected people.


This was because, at this moment, the class was being taught by Vice President Liu, a Senior Breeder, and all the attendees were also Breeders.


Using their Pet Beasts as experimental subjects naturally meant they would be analyzed based on the knowledge presented in the class.


Even if something was incorrect, Vice President Liu would point it out directly. This was equivalent to having a group of Breeders, with a Senior Breeder presiding, offer clear and precise guidance on the growth of their own Pet Beasts.


Such an opportunity, let alone being free, would see many people eager to pay for it if they could.


In fact, some present had indeed used backdoor connections through the Breeder Association staff and paid for such a chance.


It didn’t much concern others, but Zheng Yong couldn’t help but peek into the classroom throughout the hour.


His brows were tightly furrowed.


Why hasn’t my little brother come out after such a long time?


The problem is, the class has already started!


Could there be another door to the classroom that I haven’t seen? Did my little brother actually leave a long time ago?


But if he left, wouldn’t he have gone straight home? That doesn’t make sense either.


A class by President Liu—frankly, unless it’s a life-or-death matter, what could be more important than this?


So where is he now?


Zheng Yong didn’t know, and at this moment, there was clearly no time to dawdle. An assistant hurried out from the front of the classroom, urging, "Go in quickly, they’re waiting for you. Keep an eye on your little creatures and don’t cause any trouble!"


After this urging, the figures went inside one by one, Zheng Yong among them.


"Instructor Liu, there are a total of thirteen Beast Tamers: three Forest Wolf Tamers, two Shadow Wolf Tamers, two Sand Wolf Tamers, three Snow Wolf Tamers, two Flame Wolf Tamers, and one Hunting Wolf Tamer."


It was quite a collection, almost a complete set of Tamers specializing in several basic types of Wolf Pets.


Zheng Yong suddenly became extremely nervous.


This was the first time he was seeing the elder at the head of the room up close; previously, he had mostly seen him on television and in various official media.


However, Zheng Yong was soon stunned.


Because standing right next to that elder was a figure with a beaming smile. This person seemed to notice Zheng Yong’s gaze and even blinked, apparently greeting him.


What’s he doing there?


But obviously, now didn’t seem to be the time to ask. A terrifying, unbidden speculation surfaced in the depths of his mind.


"Alright, after the assignments, summon your Pet Beasts, and then we can begin the analysis and explanation one by one."


The six Intermediate Level Breeders who had come forward, including Su Ping, corresponded to the specialized Breeders for the six types of Wolf Pets present.


Clearly, as a Forest Wolf Tamer, Zheng Yong was naturally assigned to the only specialized Forest Wolf Breeder present.


An assistant quickly approached Zheng Yong, leading him and two others to stand behind Su Ping. With a beaming smile, the assistant said to Su Ping, "Breeder Su, sorry to trouble you with them."


Su Ping smiled and quickly shook his head. "No trouble at all."


Then, the assistant addressed the three people behind Zheng Yong, including Zheng Yong himself, "Pay attention. This is Su Ping, an Intermediate Breeder, and also a newly specialized Intermediate Forest Wolf Breeder."


The three of them looked at Su Ping, who was younger than they were, and were completely dumbfounded. Zheng Yong, in particular, stared with his mouth agape at Su Ping, who stood just two people away from him.


While the three were dumbstruck, the assistant, clearly past the initial shock of the news, furrowed his brows and said, "What are you standing there in a daze for? Greet Breeder Su already!"


Only then did the three of them come to their senses, speaking along with the other Beast Tamers who had already been assigned, "Greetings, Breeder Su."


"Hello, hello. Zheng Yong, let’s start with you. Summon your Ba Tian for me to take a look!" Su Ping said.


The others looked at Zheng Yong with surprise. Some clearly recognized that this Breeder Su was the same young man who had arrived with Zheng Yong.


But no one would have thought that this Breeder (Su Ping) was acquainted with such a person—the ’Long Aotian of the common battle arena’ (Zheng Yong)!


Feeling the envious looks from his companions, Zheng Yong quickly summoned his Ba Tian.


Su Ping wasn’t there to show off; he had listened very carefully to the previous lecture.


Although his abilities were genuine, not just inflated claims, many pairs of eyes were now fixed on him.


Everyone was curious how such a young graduate could become an Intermediate Breeder.


Su Ping really didn’t want his success to be attributed to mere luck or anything similar.


So, he had no interest at that moment in figuring out what the three before him were thinking.


Instead, he meticulously observed the three Forest Wolves. Fortunately, the Eye of Truth could ascertain some things, though using Telepathic Communication was relatively more subtle.


After some examination, it didn’t take long for Su Ping to have a clear understanding in his mind.


Vice President Liu, who had just returned from attending to the Tamer with the lone Hunting Wolf, saw that Su Ping had already begun to write his opinions on the evolution of the three Forest Wolves. He smiled and walked over.


"Su Ping, just say it directly, no need to write it down. Let the others hear your perspective as well."


Actually, this wasn’t difficult.


The evolutionary pathways of a Forest Wolf are closely tied to its own abilities. The real difficulty lies in deducing other evolutionary directions based on the differing strengths of the cultivated Forest Wolf, and then to extrapolate from there. This involved discerning the possibility of new evolutionary pathways by analyzing existing ones.


Su Ping didn’t act coy and directly voiced his analysis.


It included the content of Old Liu’s lecture, his observations of Sun Chaoju’s cultivation of the Wanmu Wolf, the public analysis and retroactive inference based on the evolution results of the Wanmu Wolf displayed through the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas, and his own understanding.


Facing so many Breeders, Su Ping didn’t feel any stage fright.


Even Vice President Liu stepped aside, yielding the stage to Su Ping.


Zheng Yong stood to the side, watching Su Ping speak eloquently on the podium. Vice President Liu nodded beside him from time to time, and the few remaining Intermediate Breeders below concentrated intently. Other Intermediate Breeders couldn’t help but turn from their own analyses to observe. Even the larger number of Junior Breeders looked up with admiration. Seeing all this, Zheng Yong finally seemed to come to his senses.


At that moment, he didn’t know if it was an illusion.


Zheng Yong suddenly felt as if he saw a figure, someone his own age or perhaps even younger, seemingly glowing.


Moreover, it glowed so brightly that he could hardly look directly at it.


It was as if only then did he belatedly realize.


I’ve just made the acquaintance of a truly remarkable person!
