The other four beastmasters were also grinning from ear to ear.

Becoming a beastmaster was akin to becoming a high scholar in an ancient examination in this world. One’s social status would also undergo a major change, and they could be said to be on the way to a meteoric rise.

As the saying goes, a person will be in high spirits after a joyous occasion. Su Xing cupped his hands at the surrounding voices, then slowly walk up to the rostrum.

This was in stark contrast to the other four people who didn’t care about anything, causing Feng Qiji to take a few more glances at them.

The beastmaster dean, Feng Qiji, stood in front of the five of them with a few forms in his hands, and he said coldly, “First of all, congratulations on awakening your talent and stepping into the realm of beastmasters. However, you mustn’t be happy too early. This is just the beginning.”

After saying that, he looked around coldly at the other four.

“This is the registration form for your entrance to the Imperial Capital’s Beastmaster Academy. Later, the Beastmaster Association will help you with the enrollment procedures, allowing you to go to the Imperial Capital’s Beastmaster Academy to study.”

Su Xing looked at the registration form. It only required some family and personal information, so the registration was quickly completed.

No one would refuse an invitation to the Imperial Capital’s Beastmaster Academy, as long as those who came out from there weren’t only exceptional beastmasters.

After everyone had finished filling in the form, Feng Qiji took the form and glanced through it casually. He wasn’t worried about family information. In the Beastmaster Academy, everything had to start from scratch.

In the academy, strength reigned supreme!

“Now that you’ve awakened your beastmaster talent, your first step is to obtain a spirit egg. When the egg matures and hatches, you’ll sign a life and death contract with your beast, making it your pet beast.”

As he spoke, Feng Qiji took out five imperial stones from behind him.

“These were the rewards for awakening your beast taming talents. With this, you can go to the beast pond at the south park to obtain your spirit egg for free.”

“Spirit eggs are divided into F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, and SSS, in ascending order.”

“Dean, are these the only grades of spirit eggs? My grandfather said that in some remote and uninhabited places, there are beasts that ordinary people can’t even imagine.”

The person who spoke was none other than a woman among the group of people who had just awakened. She was dressed in purple, and her eyes flickered with a threatening air of nobility. Her dimples were faintly hanging on her oval face, and her clear and melodious voice was filled with an indisputable boldness.

Feng Qiji glanced at the young woman, and he said calmly, “That’s right. The bloodline of the spirit-taming egg determines its grade. However, there are some extremely powerful existences among the savage beasts. Even the top beastmasters are unable to determine how powerful they are. As for these savage beasts, we call them heavenly beasts, and we call their eggs heavenly eggs.”

“Unfortunately, I’ve never heard of anyone successfully obtaining a heavenly egg. It’s rare to even come across one.”

After saying this, Feng Qiji sighed.

“These things are too far away from you right now. Go and get your spirit egg first.”

“With this name tag, you can obtain an F grade egg. Of course, you can also buy a higher grade one.”

Su Xing shook his head. His family wasn’t rich in this foreign world, so he didn’t have much money to buy a spirit egg.

“You guys go ahead. I’ll meet up with you guys later. My family has already prepared one for me.”

The purple-clothed girl waved at them.

These words instantly made Su Xing and the other three look envious. “It’s great to have money, but there’s nothing we can do about it. We can only rely on ourselves.”

The four of them walked towards the beast pond together.

Along the way, Su Xing and the other three slowly became familiar with each other. They would still be classmates in the future. After leaving the same academy, they couldn’t help but take care of each other.

Through their conversation, Su Xing learned that the other three were called Wang Wei, Li Xuan, and Zhao Ke.

Just like Su Xing, they had rarely come into contact with the world of beastmasters before this. After being just selected, they couldn’t help but feel excited. The few of them chatted and chatted along the way, and they soon arrived at the beast pond.

Although it was called a beast pond, there wasn’t a drop of water to be seen. It was just a very large room, filled with all kinds of spirit eggs.

The people in charge of the beast pond were a man and woman in their thirties. Seeing Su Xing’s group of four come over, the woman smiled faintly and said to them, “You’re here to collect your spirit eggs, right?”

Everyone nodded.

Take out your name tags, and you’ll be able to collect your spirit eggs. The four of them handed their name tags to the woman. She nodded as she led them in and said, “These spirit eggs were issued by the Spirit Tamers Association. This year, we will provide four types of spirit eggs. They are the white spirit fox, the fire lark, the thorny beast, and the golden lion. They are all very good F grade familiars.

“You can choose one to sign a life and death contract. You have already awakened your beastmaster talent and possess a trace of spiritual energy. As long as you smear your blood essence on the spirit egg, touch the egg with your hands, and use your spiritual world’s will to sense it, indicating that you want to sign a life and death contract with it, you will be successful

“After signing a life and death contract, if a beastmaster dies midway, their familiar will die as well. A beastmaster may have many familiars in his lifetime, but a familiar is only loyal to one beastmaster. To them, a beastmaster is their world, so I hope that you can treat them well.”

The woman looked into the four people’s eyes and thanked them sincerely.

Su Xing and the others nodded. To them, who were about to have their first familiar, the familiar in front of them was extremely valuable.

But which one should he choose? Su Xing looked at the four spirit eggs in front of him and was momentarily troubled.

Suddenly, a spirit egg’s spiritual sense entered his brain..
