"Mr. Wang, you're too kind. Your grandson has great potential. It would be our loss if he didn't join our school!" Luo Yu said. It's indeed time to start after-school tutoring classes. Luo Yu made two big promises to Yu Lei and asked for a lot of funding. The promises were for medical Ink Fish and enhanced Honey Water Bee, but so far, no pet has been put into service on a large scale.
Previously, the problem was that there weren't enough special individuals, but now, both the Mercy Ink Fish and the Enhanced Honey Water Bee have increased in number. Among them, the Medical Ink Fish can be directly lent to the hospital and receive dividends, since they can only treat external injuries and are not worth opening a separate hospital for.
However, we definitely can't lend the enhanced Honey Water Bee directly to the school, after all—the intense emotional fluctuations caused by the Honey Water Bee stinging us are too much!
The Bee Empress must be the head instructor!
Principal Luo Yu personally oversaw this project.
Luo Yu was counting on this to get the Bee Empress to level 20 in the last few months.
If a level 12 Lower Monarch Species already that difficult to defeat, then there are probably quite a few level 20 Monarch Species in the Abyss Trial. Against such opponents, July and the Empress's levels are definitely not high enough. They need to be at least level 20 to avoid being at a disadvantage in terms of health level.
However, there's no need to worry about encountering opponents above level 20, because in the Orca Clan's understanding, human cubs are defined as: young and below the Intermediate Level Beast Taming Master.
The reason for this rule seems to be that the earliest Abyss-Eroding Killer Whale to form a contract with humans created a "Whale Taming Secret Technique" together with humans, which requires starting basic training from the Junior Level Beast Taming Master stage and has level requirements.
In order to ensure that every human beast Beast Taming who contracts with an orca cub can learn this powerful secret technique, the Orca Clan only selects Junior Level and Trainee Level Beast Taming to contract with orca cubs.
Of course, the age cannot be too old, otherwise there will be no potential for growth. The age that the Orca Clan and the Sea Tamer Alliance finally agreed on was under 18 years old, which was the age of adulthood in the old era and also the age at which most new Beast Taming entered Canglan Ocean University.
Therefore, Luo Yu will not encounter Intermediate Level Beast Taming Master in the Abyss Trial. He will only face Junior Level Beast Taming Master under the age of 18. Of course, due to this rule, there will definitely be many "level-capped masters". Some individuals may be at the peak of the Junior Level at the age of 16, but they will stay in the Junior Level stage for two more years for the sake of the Abyss Trial. These people are even more determined.
These "level-capped powerhouses" are actually not so bad. What Luo Yu fears more are opponents with too high a racial level, such as "Abyss Species pets" or "Upper-Tier Monarch Species pets".
However, after some investigation, Luo Yu concluded that it was unlikely to be the case, as no Upper-Tier Monarch Species emerged during the Abyss Trial 10 years ago.
The champion's pet is Mid-Rank Monarch Species.
Of course, this wasn't just any ordinary mid-level monarch; it was a dragon, and also possessed spatial abilities—
In addition, his spatial dragon also had a contract with a lower-ranking monarch's retinue.
It could be considered a combination of two monarchs.
Therefore, Luo Yu plans to replicate the path to godhood of the previous champion this time, relying on a powerful main pet and powerful followers to make a comeback.
"Then I'll have to trouble Scholar Luo Yu. Should I apply to Yu Lei about building the school?" Wang Defa.
"Yes, just find Yu Lei. I remember your grandson is named Wang Heng, right? Don't worry, the tutoring center will definitely use the best resources on him," Luo Yu assured him.
"Thank you very much," Wang Defa said happily. Sure enough, using money to pave the way is convenient.
Luo Yu sighed, "Sure enough, having technology is convenient; all sorts of investments will automatically come knocking on your door."
After leaving, Wang Defa went straight to the office of the director of the Beast Management Bureau and Yu Lei in person about building a school.
After seeing Wang Defa off, Luo Yu continued to consider his options.
If it comes to participating in the Abyss Trial, July will definitely be fine.
At that time, with the Water Devil Beast's familiars and its own evolution, it should have the combined power of two monarchs.
However, if the Bee Empress continues to grow in the usual way and does not form contracts with new knights, she will definitely not be able to defeat a king, even a lower-ranking king.
At that time, it was three against one, and it and its two retinues were no match for a lower-ranking king, let alone in the trial.
There is a high probability that a mid-level monarch will appear among the opponents.
"During this period, besides helping July evolve, I also need to help the Bee Empress evolve."
"It needs to evolve at least one more time!"
"In comparison, the Bee Empress's evolution is much easier. She just needs to fulfill her Obsession. Last time, after defeating a Upper-Tier Common Species flying creature, her soul transformed to the strength of Mid-Rank Species. To transform her into Upper-Tier Common Species, she'll probably have to defeat a low-ranking monarch flying creature."
"What a pity, why is Radiant Tide Dragon a water dragon? It would be so much better if it were a flying dragon." Luo Yu looked up at the sky.
In this way, we can also invite Yun Qing to Mirror Moon Island for some tutoring.
Then find an opportunity to let the Bee Empress deal with them. This time, July can't be allowed to interfere, since the Bee Empress's Obsession is only for her and her clan to dominate the sky, and it has nothing to do with the penguin clan.
"Next, find a few suitable knights for the Empress, so that she has the strength to challenge Lower Monarch Species flying creatures without relying on July's assistance."
"Then, find a Flying King with a similar life level and initiate a challenge."
There are definitely no flying monarchs below level 20 on Mirror Moon Island.
So if we're looking, we'll probably have to go to other islands.
However, Luo Yu has another solution: artificial!
Let's see if we can evolve a flying bird king by combining the Dependent Evolution Method with the Ancient Evolution Stone.
However, this would be too wasteful of resources. Blood of the Abyss is quite precious. Although he was confident he could persuade the guardian to contribute more blood, it would be much more convenient if he could find a finished flying monarch.
Luo Yu planned to ask Shi Qianqian later, since she came from a big city and probably had many talented friends of the same age. She could ask Shi Qianqian to call them and invite them to Mirror Moon Island for tutoring—but somehow Mirror Moon Island felt more and more like a scam operation.
After breakfast, Luo Yu took July to the Ancient Grotto again, while the Empress stayed at the Honey Water Bee breeding base to continue building up her army.
"Scholar An Yao, do you know any junior students on the Azure Billows Continent? Like, those who have formed contracts with level 10+ Monarch Species flying pets?"
Before Shi Qianqian arrived, Luo Yu first inquired about Scholar An Yao, since she was also from a major city and a graduate of Canglan Ocean University.
"I don't know him," An Yao said. "But why are you doing this? There should be tons of people like him at Canglan Ocean University. Why don't you just go there and look for him?"
"The main thing is to get the other party to come over—" Luo Yu had just returned from Future Island and hadn't been going out much lately.
"Oh, so you want to test whether the Ancient Evolution Stone has any effect on Monarch-type birds, right!" An Yao made up her own reasoning.
"But isn't Yu Lei's pet beast a lower-ranking monarch, the Storm Eagle? Why not just let him try it out?"
Following the other person's guess, Luo Yu said, "We need to try all levels and attributes. Let's try the lower levels first. Generally speaking, lower-level bloodlines are more easily influenced by external forces and undergo racial evolution."
He thought An Yao's imagined reason was actually a good reason for inviting him, and he could use it.
"You must have some professors you're close to at Canglan Ocean University, right? Maybe one of them has a student they're particularly interested in, who happens to be Monarch Species bird pet. You could have them come to Mirror Moon Island and give it a try; after all, evolution is a good thing."
"Let me ask for you." An Yao immediately took out her Communication Conch and dialed a number.
A moment later, a woman's voice came from the other end.
"Who?"
"Teacher Fang, it's me, An Yao."
"An Yao, is something the matter?"
"Teacher Fang, I'd like to ask, in our archaeology department, are there any students who have contracted with Monarch Species bird-like pets?" That's too high a level.
Teacher Fang said resentfully, "Our archaeology department can't even enroll a few students a year. Those who can form a contract with Monarch Species all go to other popular majors. In all these years, you're the only one who formed a contract with Monarch Species and still chose to apply to the archaeology department? That's only because your parents are both professors in the archaeology department."
"----" Luo Yu.
The archaeology sect's holy maiden, right?
This is what unpopular majors are like.
"This—" An Yao was also helpless; archaeology was clearly so interesting.
What's so good about combat-type characters? They're so complicated!
"However, there are quite a few king-like bird pets in the combat department. Do you have something important to say? I actually know a few, one of them is a freshman this year, he's Teacher Li's son. You know Teacher Li, he often went on inspections with us and served as our bodyguard."
"Really?! What's the situation with Teacher Li's son's pet?"
"Lower Monarch Species, Thunderclap Eagle —level 20. I've been holding back its level, seemingly wanting to participate in this Thunderclap Eagle Abyss Trial. Right now, I'm busy choosing suitable companions for it."
An Yao gave Luo Yu a look, as if to ask if this was appropriate.
Is this appropriate? Luo Yu's pupils contracted.
Thunderclap Eagle?
Are you kidding me? This is perfect! Nothing could be more perfect.
You should know that the only Monarch Species flying creature the Bee Empress ever saw in her past life was the Thunderclap Eagle!
The other person's image has always been deeply etched in the Bee Empress's mind; she was someone she admired in her past life.
If we can defeat the Thunderclap Eagle, let alone transform into Superior Species —even if we complete all our Obsession in one go and evolve into Monarch Species, that's still a possibility.
Of course, Luo Yu couldn't let it fulfill its Obsession so easily. Afterward, he had to instill in it the concept that there were many aerial creatures even stronger than the Thunderclap Eagle. Only in this way could it have the potential for unlimited evolution.
"Please, please invite him to Mirror Moon Island for me. I will reward you handsomely!" Luo Yu said softly, his hands clasped together.
Such a suitable opponent! If the opponent refuses to come to Mirror Moon Island, Luo Yu will go to the Azure Billows Continent to find him!
Regardless, he's determined to fight this opponent.
I can't guarantee anything from the other mutated beasts, but if we defeat the Thunderclap Eagle, we can definitely make the Bee Empress evolve again.
