I can understand what the furry creatures are saying, and I've become the number one beast tame

Chapter 144 Okay, that's enough!

[certainly!]
The Frostbeast chewed the grass leaves vigorously, squeezing out a sound from between its teeth, which was exceptionally firm.

[The scent of the Beast Taming Sect disciples is still familiar to me.]
After all, it was captured and raised for many years.

Although I couldn't see clearly whether they were wearing Beast Taming Sect robes, the smell doesn't lie.
Nan Ran raised an eyebrow: "The taste?"

She raised her hand and sniffed herself: "What do I smell like?"

[A disgusting taste] The Frostbeast chewed up a mouthful of grass leaves.

Nan Ran: ...

Aha?

She smelled it again, but it didn't seem to have any smell.

[You don't have it, but most of them do] Frostbeast said again.

It snuggled closer to Nan Ran, its wet, deer-like nose and mouth, which smelled of grass, sniffed and rubbed against Nan Ran's hand.

Seeing that Nan Ran truly didn't understand, the Frostbeast explained again: "Disciples of the Beast Taming Sect can receive Beast Taming Pills every month, which are used to enhance and consolidate the cultivation of their contracted demonic beasts."
That stuff tastes awful.
[The scent will linger on the person who touched it for a long time.]
Disciples of the Beast Taming Sect, having been immersed in the scent of Beast Taming Pills for years, will carry the scent of Beast Taming Pills on their bodies, the only difference being how strong or faint it is.
Outer disciples can only receive a maximum of three per month, and the flavor is milder.

Inner disciples can receive a maximum of ten per month!
If there are additional rewards, you can get even more.

The smell that gets on your body will naturally be stronger.

Nan Ran blinked; it was the first time she had ever heard of this thing.

"...Then why don't I have any?"

She had never even heard of Beast Taming Pills.

The frost-covered beast's azure-blue deer eyes looked confused for a moment, then, as if remembering something, asked: "[Did you have a contracted monster before?]"
Contracting a demonic beast, regardless of its rank or level, is the only condition for receiving the Beast Taming Pill.

Nan Ran... doesn't seem to have any other contracted demon beasts?
The Fiery Lion was formed by chance during a sect trial.

I don't think I've seen your previous contracted monster before...
Nan Ran: ...She reached out and pinched the Frostbeast's little deer mouth: "Alright, stop talking!"

Nan Ran maintained a smile.

The worst student at the bottom of the sect, how could he possibly have a contracted demon beast?
It's not that they've never made a contract before; after all, one of the basic courses that outer disciples have to learn is the Beast Taming Contract.

The sect will provide some common demonic beasts for the registered disciples to familiarize themselves with and practice with.

The usual ones are Golden-eared Mouse, Moon-tailed Cat, and Devouring Dog.

These monsters sound powerful... but they're actually just little mice, kittens, and puppies.

Miniature size and friendly.

Rather than a monster, it's more like a companion pet.

They are very easy to tame and contract.

But...

In the past, Nanran could not even successfully form contracts with miniature monsters like mice, kittens, and puppies, even those with good personalities who would actively seek out others to form contracts.

This is why he remained firmly in the bottom spot of the sect for ten years.

Then again——

"If these people are also disciples of the Beast Taming Sect, and are part of a trial team, then wouldn't that mean their destination is very likely the core area as well?"

The Frostbeast's mouth was sealed by Nanran's sinful hand, so it could only nod its head forcefully.

"very strange……"

They're all rushing to the core area; surely it's not just for the trial and assessment?
