“A brand-new evolved form of the Ice Fox, with Liu Yi as both its discoverer and contractor…” she murmured, reading the words on the file, her eyes widening slightly. “So it was you?”
She looked up, her gaze lingering on Liu Yi for a few seconds, her eyes filled with undisguised surprise.
“A first-year student, only awakened for about three months, and your first pet has already evolved to the Intermediate stage, and it’s a brand-new evolved form…”
Zheng Min muttered to herself, her fingers unconsciously tapping the desk.
Li Chengying’s voice came from the back row: “What’s going on? Is something wrong?”
Gao Xue pressed her shoulder: “Quiet down, let them speak.”
Zheng Min took a deep breath, trying to regain her professional composure: “Please wait a moment, I need to confirm the Silver Snow Fox’s registration information.”
She quickly operated the terminal, and the data on the screen continuously refreshed.
“Length, weight, fur characteristics… all consistent with the archived records.” She nodded. “The Silver Snow Fox is confirmed. Please present your second pet.”
Liu Yi recalled Ziyue to her Beast Taming Space, then looked at Chiying beside her.
Chiying understood, slowly descending from its hovering state to the ground. Its dark scales gleamed with a deep luster under the lights, golden patterns flowed like rivers, and its crimson eyes calmly observed Zheng Min.
Zheng Min’s mouth was slightly agape, and she didn’t close it for a long time.
“Mo… Moling Dragon?” Her voice trembled slightly. “Is this also contracted by you?”
“Yes.”
Zheng Min’s fingers rapidly tapped the keyboard, pulling up the Moling Dragon’s file.
The file prominently displayed: Moling Dragon evolved form, discoverer and contractor Liu Yi, first recorded by the Longwu Region Beast Tamer Association in September of the New Calendar year 5025.
“An evolved form just recorded in September…” Zheng Min’s gaze moved back and forth between Liu Yi and Chiying. “So, this Moling Dragon just evolved last month?”
Liu Yi nodded: “That’s right.”
Zheng Min was silent for a few seconds.
She had been working in Beast Tamer Association registration for fifteen years, having seen all sorts of Beast Tamers and pets.
But this first-year girl before her had two pets: one a brand-new evolved form, and another a completely new Dragon-type pet, and that Dragon-type pet had only just evolved…
She took a deep breath, trying to keep her voice steady: “Please wait a moment, I need… I need to re-verify the data.”
“Alright.” Liu Yi waited patiently.
Li Chengying in the back row couldn’t hold back anymore, craning her neck to look inside: “Did the staff member get scared? Hahaha!”
Gao Xue rubbed her forehead helplessly: “Can you just calm down for a bit?”
Ouyang Qin stood at the very end of the line, a slight smile playing on her lips, remaining silent.
It took Zheng Min three times longer than usual to complete the Moling Dragon’s information verification.
She put down the scanner in her hand and let out a long breath: “Moling Dragon confirmed. Next is the pet physical examination, please follow me.”
She stood up and led Liu Yi towards the Medical Room next to the registration area.
The Medical Room was spacious and bright, filled with various detection instruments.
Several medical staff in white coats were busy. Seeing Zheng Min bring someone in, a young male doctor came forward to greet them.
“Sister Zheng, who is this?”
“A contestant from Tianqi Beast Taming High School in the Longwu Region, here for a pet physical examination,” Zheng Min said, then added, “Her pets are rather… special, so be thorough.”
The male doctor was a bit puzzled, but soon, when Ziyue and Chiying appeared in the Medical Room, his expression mirrored Zheng Min’s.
“This… is this a Silver Snow Fox? A Moling Dragon?” His voice rose by an octave. “A first-year contestant?!”
“Yes,” Liu Yi replied, already accustomed to such reactions.
The male doctor circled Ziyue and Chiying several times, muttering: “Silver Snow Fox, Intermediate stage, fur is silver-blue interwoven, two tails, silver light at the tail tips… consistent with the file description. Moling Dragon, Intermediate stage, dark scales, golden patterns, wingless flight…”
He turned to Zheng Min: “Sister Zheng, is she really a first-year student?”
Zheng Min nodded helplessly: “The information has been verified; it’s correct.”
The male doctor took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down: “Alright, let’s begin the physical examination. Rest assured, we are only checking the pet’s overall condition, whether its energy fluctuations are stable, and if it has taken any prohibited substances.”
Liu Yi nodded; this was precisely the standard physical examination procedure she was familiar with.
Ziyue was guided to a testing chamber.
The testing chamber was a translucent cylindrical container with a soft blue light flowing inside.
Ziyue walked in first, and the chamber door slowly closed.
Inside the testing chamber, scanning light beams lit up, starting from Ziyue’s head and slowly moving downwards.
Wherever the beams passed, a holographic projection displayed various data in real-time.
【Pet Name: Silver Snow Fox】
【Attribute: Ice】
【Level: Intermediate stage】
【Size: Normal】
【Energy Fluctuations: Stable】
【Physiological Indicators: Excellent】
【Abnormal Status: None】
【Prohibited Substance Test: Negative】
The male doctor stared at the data on the screen, his eyes widening: “This latent energy concentration is significantly higher than a Snow-Drinking Fox of the same rank.”
Zheng Min leaned over for a look, remaining silent.
Ziyue’s examination was quickly completed.
As it exited the testing chamber, a faint blue glow still clung to its fur. It gently shook its body and returned to Liu Yi’s feet.
Next, it was Chiying’s turn.
Chiying’s overall size was larger than Ziyue’s, almost occupying most of the space within the translucent chamber.
The golden patterns were particularly striking, illuminated by the blue light.
The scanning light beams lit up once more.
【Pet Name: Moling Dragon】
【Attribute: Dragon and Poison-type】
【Level: Intermediate stage】
【Size: Normal】
【Energy Fluctuations: Stable — Abnormal energy peak detected, analyzing… Analysis complete, identified as Trait fluctuation, no abnormality】
【Physiological Indicators: Excellent】
【Abnormal Status: None】
【Prohibited Substance Test: Negative】
“Trait fluctuation?” The male doctor was stunned, turning to Zheng Min. “This data…”
Zheng Min took a few steps closer, staring at the “Trait fluctuation” annotation on the display. She remained silent for a few seconds before speaking: “It’s a brand-new Dragon-type pet, so it’s normal for its Trait not to be in the existing database. As long as it’s confirmed not to be influenced by prohibited substances.”
She paused, her gaze passing through the glass to Chiying inside the chamber. The dragon was quietly hovering, its crimson eyes half-closed, its golden patterns faintly shimmering with each breath.
With the examination complete, Chiying flew out of the chamber and returned to Liu Yi’s side.
The male doctor lowered his head, signed the health report, and handed it to Liu Yi: “Physical examination passed. I wish you good results in the competition.”
“Thank you.”
Liu Yi took the report and left the Medical Room with Ziyue and Chiying.
Behind her, the male doctor’s suppressed voice came: “Sister Zheng, are you sure she’s really a first-year? Not some professional player in disguise?”
Zheng Min replied helplessly: “The information has been verified, she is indeed a first-year. And didn’t you see her data? Initial awakening at 14%, breaking through 20% in just over a month, winning the Longwu High School Entrance Tournament Championship, and she even bred a brand-new evolved form of the Ice Fox and contracted a brand-new Dragon-type pet…”
She paused, her tone complex: “This year’s National High School League is going to be interesting.”
