Slimes are mud-like creatures that can grow and shrink, so the size amplification skill is commonly seen among slimes.
Other extraordinary creatures with the size amplification skill are very rare, and it's extremely difficult to encounter them.
Therefore, when Shi Yu encountered a slime domestically this time, he had no intention of letting it go.
If even a monkey can learn the skill of emulating the heavens and earth, it's quite reasonable for a metal-eating beast to learn size amplification!
In short, this is a universal skill suitable for all pet beasts, and it's not a loss to acquire it.
"Now, everyone listen up!"
After flipping through a pile of innate skills, Shi Yu ultimately felt that size amplification was not to be missed. At this moment, the professional beast tamer Zhou Wanshan, who was in charge of the training, suddenly shouted.
"The training will officially start in half an hour. During this half hour, you can still go to the store next to the training base to replenish food and medicine."
"But once you enter the Tian Mang Mountain, you won't be able to come out for three days unless there's a special situation."
Since each person only has one backpack, how much they can carry depends on their own arrangements.
Shi Yu naturally prepared the basics, but it probably wouldn't last three days. He would have to find food and other supplies after entering the Tian Mang Mountain. He also prepared a sleeping bag and a tool insect.
At this moment, Shi Yu began to feel helpless. It would be great if the beast taming space could also store other things... It's so troublesome without a spatial equipment.
By the way, does this world have spatial equipment?
This is a question worth thinking about... If it exists, he must get one in the future.
We boys must get what we want.jpg.
By the way, the secret relic in Pingcheng looks like a large spatial equipment, and it can even store living things.
Shi Yu fell into deep thought...
"Shi Yu."
Just as Shi Yu was fantasizing about whether the secret relic could be owned by an individual, Chen Kai suddenly came over again.
"Do you want to team up? Do you want to team up?" Chen Kai asked in quick succession.
"Our class plans to form a team to hunt the mad pythons."
"My ice armor beast can control, and someone in the class has a lightning-type pet beast that can directly fish in the lake..."
Shi Yu asked, "Can we team up this time? How will the spoils be divided?"
Chen Kai said, "Since the examiners haven't specified, it should be allowed, right? There are rare resources around the lakes where the mad pythons are, so it should be enough to share."
Shi Yu shook his head and said, "No, you guys go ahead, I have other goals."
He felt that following this group might not be as efficient as going alone, and it would also be inconvenient.
"Ah, okay."
Although Chen Kai wanted to team up with Shi Yu, he couldn't go back on his word to his classmates, who had already agreed to act together. He couldn't help but feel a bit regretful.
The training base did not have explicit rules about whether trainees could team up, but one thing was the same: whether they were lone wolves or small teams, they all had their eyes on the few small bosses with growth levels above nine and in short supply.
Capturing one of them might secure a spot in the top 20.
Next, Shi Yu went to the store and bought a pair of insulating rubber gloves. After spending not much time, he returned.
There was still plenty of time before departure, so Shi Yu continued to browse the booklet.
He had only read the part about ferocious beasts and had not yet looked at the resources section. Collecting resources also counted for points, and overall, the training assessment model was similar to previous years.
Hmm... In addition to the ferocious beasts and resources sections, there were two pages at the end: "One wilderness survival tip a day, have you learned it?"
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour had gone by. The training supervisor gathered everyone again.
"The current time is 10:00 AM. Everyone, set off immediately. You can freely choose from the four entrances to climb the mountain."
The area around Tian Mang Mountain is cordoned off, with only four entrances and exits. The environment you pass through will differ depending on the entrance you choose.
The beast tamers present had carefully studied the map and had their hunting targets in mind, so they had a good idea of which entrance to take.
Thus, when Zhou Wanshan finished speaking, the 100 apprentice beast tamers immediately dispersed.
At the same time, a certain number of mechanical birds the size of sparrows began to fly from the training base and the safety zones within the mountain, circling in the sky over Tian Mang Mountain.
**Name**: Mechanical Bird
**Attribute**: Mechanical
**Race Level**: Low Extraordinary
**Race Skills**: Image Storage, Acceleration
**Description**: Artificial mechanical life form used for tracking, investigation, and surveillance.
After the mechanical birds took off, the screens in the monitoring room of the training base and the safety zones began to clearly display the conditions at various locations in Tian Mang Mountain.
Especially the ferocious beasts with higher growth levels, which were the focus of surveillance.
This was not only to ensure the safety of the trainees but also to provide a more intuitive view of their performance. Watching the process was one of the few pleasures for the examiners, as simply waiting for the results would be too boring.
At the foot of Tian Mang Mountain, a certain intermediate point is the entrance to the magnetic mountain area. Shi Yu and about twenty apprentice beast tamers chose to enter from here.
As for Chen Kai and his group, they entered from another direction to prepare for their team hunt of the mad pythons.
"Eleven, come out."
The outermost area of Tian Mang Mountain had been cleared, with no ferocious beasts wandering around, so most of the beast tamers chose to summon their pet beasts here to protect them closely.
Shi Yu did the same. He had seen that there were many rare spirit plants on this mountain, so he didn't have to worry about Eleven consuming energy. Eleven could eat while walking, maintaining basic energy consumption.
"Ying?"
At this moment, after coming out of the beast taming space, Eleven looked around in confusion. Is this it?
Where are the opponents? Where are the opponents? Where are the opponents?
"I'll take you to find them." Shi Yu was very confident in the little metal-eating beast's strength.
The ferocious beasts here were all wild and untrained, and most of their combat power was inferior to the pet beasts carefully cultivated by the beast tamers.
Although his little metal-eating beast was only level six, with proficient super vision, high-speed healing, and expert-level hardening, it should be at the top of the food chain...
As long as they didn't encounter a group of ferocious beasts, they were invincible.
"Ow-ow-ow-ow~~"
Eleven waved its hand and followed Shi Yu.
Shi Yu added, "By the way, pay attention to the surroundings."
Unlike vision, the metal-eating beast's sense of smell was very sensitive, and Eleven, with super vision, had both strong vision and smell.
With this assurance, they could basically rest assured that they wouldn't encounter any sudden dangers.
Next, it was time for Eleven's training, and the final destination was the magnetic mountain area, the electric slime!
Summoning the pet beast took a while, but Shi Yu's next goal was clear: head for the magnetic mountain area.
He glanced at the map in the booklet. To reach the magnetic mountain area, he first had to cross the wild boar forest...
The wild boar forest is home to a ferocious beast called the "long-spined wild boar." It is immensely strong, with a fierce appearance, sharp tusks, and a thick, spiky hide that can defend against attacks. Its meat is delicious and juicy, and it is a medium-level extraordinary creature that would make a child cry in fear.
Shi Yu is still young, and a tear involuntarily rolled down his cheek.
According to the booklet, the average growth level of the long-spined wild boars in the wild boar forest is level six, and they are considered the backbone of the ferocious beasts in this training phase.
The long-spined wild boars are not easy to provoke, with strong combat power, so their points are not low. However, this is precisely what made Shi Yu happy.
"Eleven, I'll take you to hunt boars!"
"Ow-ow-ow-ow~~"
...
Wild Boar Forest.
The long-spined wild boars are social extraordinary creatures, but in most cases, they forage separately in a fixed area, giving the beast tamers an opportunity.
Dealing with a group of wild boars would be a headache, but most of the beast tamers participating in the assessment had some confidence in handling a single one.
Shi Yu and Eleven traversed a forest path and arrived near the wild boar forest. Along the way, they encountered some other creatures, but they were all low-level, like the earth rats, which Shi Yu had no interest in.
It would be too troublesome to carry a bunch of low-level creatures for points, and there were even creatures that didn't give points, like the green silk worms, which Shi Yu didn't even want to look at.
"Found one."
Just as they arrived near the wild boar forest, Shi Yu spotted a long-spined wild boar foraging at the edge.
**Name**: Long-spined Wild Boar
**Attribute**: Earth
**Race Level**: Medium Extraordinary
**Race Skill**: Petrifying Tusks
"Hum! Hum!! Hum-hum!!"
Not only did Shi Yu and Eleven spot the long-spined wild boar, but the boar also noticed them.
The long-spined wild boar's natural enemies include wolves, bears, leopards, and raptors, so it must be alert to any sudden attacks. It is very agile and fierce, with a strong sense of vigilance.
At this moment, sensing danger, it raised its head, and the long spines on its body suddenly stood up, emitting a warning grunt.
The long-spined wild boar, which often lives in the wild, knew that it might have been targeted by a hunter.
It cautiously looked around, but when it saw the thin Shi Yu and the even smaller metal-eating beast pup Eleven, it was momentarily stunned.
Just this?
The long-spined wild boar couldn't help but shed a tear of shock. Wild boars are omnivores, eating both plants and meat. For the current long-spined wild boar, it felt like a sudden reversal!
