Beast Taming: I have unique beast-collecting skills

Nanjiang City Beast Taming Center.

After the Great Tongue Sparrow landed at the entrance, a mechanical voice announced: "Dear passenger, we have arrived at the Beast Taming Center of Nanjiang City. Please take your belongings, enter the last four digits of your mobile phone number, and confirm that the flight is complete."

Lin Su landed lightly with her bag, and after hearing the prompt, she entered the last three digits of her phone number on the order taker of the Big Tongue Sparrow and gave it a good review.

The great-tongued finches politely lowered their heads and slightly raised their wings to express their gratitude.

"Driver No. 0633, your next order's departure point is Haiyu Jiayuan Community, with two passengers. If you confirm the order, please start flying towards the passengers' location within 2 minutes." The mechanical voice sounded again.

"Business is really busy..." Lin Su thought to herself as she watched the great tongue bird fly away.

The pet carrying the milk saw the little human go straight into the hall, hesitated for a moment, and then waited outside instead of following.

It will probably come out again... it thought, drinking its milk and staring at the doorway.

-----------------

Lin Su followed the flow of people into the hall.

The Beast Taming Center is the official institution for Beast Tamers to register, undergo level assessments, and modify pet information. It was jointly established by the four planets of the Kalis Interstellar Alliance. All Beast Taming Centers share information and operate independently of their respective planets. They can be found in provinces, cities, towns, and villages throughout the Dragon Kingdom.

After a new Beastmaster awakens, the first thing they need to do is have their brain area tested and register their Beastmaster identity at an official institution. Only with this certification can they purchase pets and then form a contract to become a true Beastmaster.

The Beast Taming Center was crowded.

Lin Su stood there holding her ID card, looking for window number 32, which was dedicated to brain region testing.

Ask.

A pink, kangaroo-shaped question-and-answer beast approached, extending its four-toed paws and pointing to the name tag hanging around its neck.

Lin Su looked at its large, fluttering ears and tentatively replied, "I'm here to test its brain region."

Ask.

The question-and-answer beast nodded, swished its large tail, turned around, and waved its short claws, signaling Lin Su to follow.

Lin Su followed it directly to window number 32.

"Hello, I would like to have my brain examined." Lin Su took out the identity card she had prepared in advance.

The staff, seeing that she had come with the Q&A app, were somewhat curious: "Why didn't your parents come with you for the brain region measurement?"

Lin Su replied with an obedient face, "Something came up in my family, and I couldn't get away."

She checked on her phone and found that her appearance hadn't changed in her entire life.

With big eyes, a pointed chin, fair skin, and delicate features, she smiled at the mirror and revealed two familiar little tiger teeth.

According to her former classmates and colleagues, her face was naturally suited to playing the innocent.

The staff member didn't ask any further questions and handed the ID card back: "300 Alliance Coins, scan the code on the right."

Lin Su tapped twice on her phone, then leaned over and made the payment with a "beep".

"Third floor, Testing Room C. Follow the Q&A Beast; it will take you there."

"Ask." The Question-and-Answer Beast flicked its tail and led the way again.

On the way to the testing room, Lin Su saw many people doing business, but she noticed that she was the only one being led by the Q&A Beast.

Could it be because she's a minor? Or is it her first time here? How did they find out? Lin Su stood with her hands in her pockets, her mind filled with wild guesses.

The Question-and-Answer Beast stopped at the door of the C testing room, knocked, then stepped aside to let Lin Su go in first, while it stood guard at the door.

A female doctor was on duty in the testing room.

"The little girl came by herself? Lie down in there." She pointed to the open testing chamber.

After Lin Su stepped inside and lay down, a "beep" sounded, and the testing chamber door slowly closed, leaving only her face exposed.

The instrument's lights turned on one by one.

Lin Su saw a virtual data panel appear in front of her.

Name: Lin Su

Gender: Female

Age: 14

Brain development level: 8%

[Variation range: ±2%]

Physical Fitness: E-

Is a 14-year-old's brain development already this advanced?

The female doctor raised an eyebrow as she looked at the data panel and asked, "Has it been autonomously awakened for some time now?"

Lin Su, puzzled, suppressed her doubts and replied, "No, it should have awakened today, or maybe yesterday."

She didn't know either.

The fluctuation range suddenly increased to ±5%.

The female doctor burst out laughing:

"Don't be nervous. Usually, the brain region that can achieve self-awareness is around 5%, but I'm asking because you've already developed 8%."

Oh, I see… Lin Su felt relieved. So it was because she was too outstanding.

The fluctuation range leveled off again, eventually stabilizing at ±2%.

"That's fine." The female doctor nodded and turned back to her seat.

The instrument lights went out, and the hatch slowly opened.

Lin Su sat up, put her bag back on, and took the test certificate from the doctor, which had a signature and a big red stamp on it.

"You can download the electronic version from the Beast Taming Center's official website," the doctor advised.

"Okay, thank you, doctor."

Lin Su took the certificate and walked to the door, only to find the Question-Answering Beast still waiting there: "Ask."

Is he going to stay with her until everything is finished? How thoughtful of him!

Accompanied by the question-and-answer beast, she took her newly issued brain domain certificate, got a number, had her picture taken, and successfully registered as a beast tamer. She was just waiting to contract a pet beast so she could officially register as an F-level beast tamer.

With no other business to attend to, Lin Su was escorted all the way to the entrance of the Beast Taming Center.

"Thank you." Lin Su said goodbye to the question-and-answer beast.

"Ask." The Question-and-Answer Beast waved its short claws and pulled a scoring device from its pocket.

Lin Su readily gave a five-star review and walked straight towards the adjacent commercial street after leaving the Beast Taming Center.

The pet, holding an empty box and waiting at the door, silently followed the little human when he came out.

-----------------

5:30 p.m.

The commercial street became more crowded, and many food stalls were set up.

Lin Su didn't go directly to the pet base to choose a pet, but instead started shopping.

There was no other reason.

She had over 3 Alliance Coins left in her account, more than enough to live on for a few months, but not enough to buy a pet. She would have to wait until her father's salary arrived next month.

The brainwave test results demonstrating her self-awareness were sufficient for her to apply for admission without examination.

There are still more than three months until the high school entrance exam, so there's no need for her to rush things right now. She can think about it more.

A sweet fragrance wafted on the breeze.

Just smelling it gave her a feeling of happiness that came from the bottom of her heart. Lin Su couldn't help but follow the aroma and walk quickly toward the dessert shop on the street corner.

Upon seeing this, the small gray beast hesitated for a moment before quickly following.

The pink-decorated shop was small, with a large crowd thronging in front of its single sales window.

"Don't push!"

"Line up! Everyone line up!"

The shopkeeper tried to maintain order: "No quantity limit, no purchase limit! 500 Alliance Coins per serving!"

The effect was remarkable; most people turned away as soon as they heard the price.

Lin Su successfully joined the queue and bought a fresh milk puff made by Sweet Milk Cream.

There are only 4 pieces in one bag.

I was just about to find a place to enjoy my meal when I realized something was wrong as soon as I took a step.

Her trouser leg was grabbed.
