"It's okay. Dealing with Pet Beasts isn't about having more people!" Su Ping stopped Dong Muyun before he could speak again, saying with a smile.

Xu Li gave a thumbs-up. "It has to be Classmate Su! Impressive!"

Su Ping glanced at him and smiled inwardly. Impressive? Let's see if you're truly impressed or just pretending to be.

However, just then, from the corner of his eye, Su Ping thought he noticed a somewhat different figure. This figure was very familiar; he had spent time with this person daily in the years before. It was none other than Zhou Shuchen, who was currently standing behind Xu Li in the crowd.

Su Ping was slightly startled but didn't pay it much mind. After graduating, Zhou Shuchen had joined the Fire King Company, so his presence here assisting with the event, though somewhat surprising, made sense. Su Ping could even tell that Zhou Shuchen was doing well at the Fire King Company. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been involved in such a project, even just to assist.

But that was all there was to it.

Zhou Shuchen watched his old classmate chatting so freely with Xu Li—a man whom Zhou Shuchen himself hardly dared to greet. Having been battered by society for over six months, Zhou Shuchen wore a complicated expression. Especially after seeing Li Shu, who had followed Su Ping, the recklessness of his younger years made him realize that once you left school, some things and some people became incredibly hard to reconnect with as they once were.

To say there were no regrets would be a lie.

Only after joining the Fire King Company did Zhou Shuchen truly understand that having decent Talent and Pet Beasts was just the first step. He still had a long way to go to become a great Beast Tamer. Being a Beast Tamer wasn't about relying on an initial Pet Beast and Talent alone. In fact, at times, these things might not be that important. Subsequent Cultivation, special Evolution, resource accumulation...

Back then, even though he and Su Ping didn't have a close relationship, they were still classmates. If he had known earlier...

It was just that now certainly wasn't the time for regrets. Su Ping would absolutely not give Zhou Shuchen the chance to regret.

As he entered the estate, Su Ping looked back at the vast landscape. An endless forest stretched into the distance, expansive and boundless. It contained mountains and woods, dense arrays of various wild trees, underbrush, and entwining vines.

However, what he didn't expect was that, right in front of these trees, he would see a grand sight he had never encountered in his life!

Various trees were rooted on the slope not far before him. There were Longevity Banyans whose crowns spread hundreds of meters wide, a single tree forming a forest of its own. There were King Gunpines rising straight into the clouds, towering two to three hundred meters high. There were Flame Morning Glories hanging from the mountainside, fiery red like blazing flames.

At a glance, there were nearly a thousand Plant-based Pet Beasts here.

Are all of these Plant-based Pet Beasts gathered here?

Nearly half of the entire nursery's Plant-based Pet Beasts convened in this place?

Su Ping blinked. He also noticed many people in Fire King Company uniforms at the foot of the slope, handling resources as if negotiating something.

Dong Muyun frowned slightly, while the others didn't pay much attention. Whether it was Yang He or Shangguan Ye, they knew that even if these Plant-based Pet Beasts were amenable and approachable, they would not easily agree to follow humans. Otherwise, wouldn't the threshold for becoming a Plant System Breeder be too low for anyone to enter?

However, why are there so many Plant-based Pet Beasts gathered here?

Seemingly noticing Su Ping's surprise, Xu Li said with a smile, "Previously, this nursery was explored by the Legion. Even the vice president of the Jianghai Beastmaster Association personally told these Plant-based Pet Beasts that a new city was going to be developed here and that people would come to take in these wild Plant-based Pet Beasts. That's why some of them came out of the deep forests."

Su Ping nodded, yet someone else laughingly pointed out, "It's probably not just that. Some of these Plant-based Pet Beasts have reached the Commander Level, but a large portion are still at the ordinary and Elite Level. It's difficult for them to understand human commands and language, so they wouldn't migrate en masse without reason. The real reason these Plant-based Pet Beasts are gathered here is that there might be a high-level presence on this slope, right?"

Shangguan Ye had hit the nail on the head.

Xu Li laughed awkwardly. Realizing that showing off before this person was unrealistic, he revealed the truth, "Correct. At the top of this slope resides a Monarch Level Pet Beast of this nursery."

Monarch Level!

Su Ping's heart skipped a beat. He had thought there was a reason the two major companies placed such importance on this, but he hadn't expected a Monarch Level Plant-based Pet Beast to actually be occupying this place. And it hadn't been taken away by the Legion or the Jianghai Beastmaster Association?

If he could get a Monarch Level Plant-based Pet Beast for himself...

Su Ping's eyes already shone with anticipation.

Dong Muyun, however, remained calm. "Which Monarch Level Pet Beast is it?"

Xu Li offered a rueful smile. He didn't say, but others knew. Shangguan Ye continued with a smile, glancing at the countless Plant-based Pet Beasts on the hill, and added:
