Beast Taming Patrol

Lin Su was somewhat confused.

This was not quite what he had imagined.

However, he quickly collected himself and planned to decline.

He had heard about the job of a sparring partner in battles.

In the Battle Arena, waiting for the system to randomly assign an opponent was one mode of battle, but it did not mean that it was the only mode available in the Battle Arena.

Many Beast Tamers did not want to wait or needed to find specific opponents to train certain skills of their beasts; in such cases, they would choose a mode of battle where they could select their opponent.

This was the purpose of having sparring partners for battles.

Sparring partners in the Battle Arena were full-time Beast Tamers hired specifically to face visiting clients and engage in battles with them.

Of course, this choice was not compulsory; if facing an undesirable opponent, such as one who would overpower them drastically or suppress their abilities with superior attributes, the sparring partners could also refuse to battle.

Being able to train through battle and earn a substantial income made the job of a sparring partner highly sought after, but it had certain requirements; the pet beast had to be at least stronger than average among its peers to qualify.

The reason for Lin Su's refusal was quite simple.

Although he indeed needed substantial practical training for himself and Qiuqiu at the current stage, he also had to conduct experimental research at the research institute, and a full-time role was not acceptable to him.

Thinking this, Lin Su did not hesitate to speak, "I'm sorry, I..."

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse," Zhong Tianzhan intervened with a chuckling voice, seemingly not surprised by Lin Su's reaction. "You had not visited the Battle Arena before but came today, which must be because your pet beast needs practical training, right?"

"Yes," Lin Su nodded.

"There are essentially two methods for pet beasts to undergo practical training," Zhong Tianzhan smiled. "The first is to engage in battle between Beast Tamers inside the Battle Arena, and the second is to take on the beast-clearing missions issued by the Beast Tamers Association to eliminate creatures threatening humanity outside the city."

"However, the latter requires at least elite-level Beast Tamers and sometimes even master-level Beast Tamers to participate, which you are not yet qualified for, so you can only choose to fight in the Battle Arena to refine your practical experience."

"Yes, that's right," Lin Su nodded. "But I don't have time to stay in the Battle Arena full-time; I have other matters to attend to and can only come here a few times a day."

"That's not a problem," Zhong Tianzhan nodded. "I know that as a recent graduate, you definitely don't have time for a full-time sparring role, and you may not know this, but our Tianzhan Battle Arena is different from other places in that, apart from full-time sparring partners, we also have titular sparring partners."

"Titular sparring partner?" Lin Su's face lit up with curiosity. "Can you explain that in detail?"

"You just need to leave your contact information, and in the arena, record the detailed conditions of your combat pet, like which skills it is good at and what proficiency it has reached," Zhong Tianzhan explained. "If a client wants to battle you, we will contact you to arrange a time for the battle," "you don't need to come to the arena regularly."

Is that even possible?

A look of surprise appeared on Lin Su's face.

If that was the case, it actually sounded quite good; he could arrange the timing with the challenger during his free hours, which wouldn't disrupt his research and would still meet Qiuqiu's needs for battle.

"As a titular, the income would be a bit less than that of full-time, calculated according to each session, and since your pet beast is at the juvenile stage, the compensation would be two hundred League coins per time," Zhong Tianzhan smiled. "However, our Battle Arena has specialized treatment for combat pets, and your pet beast can be treated free of charge."

"That would work," Lin Su nodded.

He wasn't there for the money, so that aspect didn't really matter to him.

"I can register as a titular with your arena."

...

The registration process did not last long, and soon Lin Su had left his identity information and Qiuqiu's training status.

Currently, Qiuqiu's training status had nothing that needed to be concealed; except for Snow Trace at the second stage, its Frost Storm and Snow Blow were still at the first stage, and although its energy levels were quite potent, they were not beyond the scope of recognition, which were all easily identifiable, so Lin Su did not mind disclosing them.

After leaving the information, Lin Su had no intention of staying long at the training venue.

"Master Zhong, I'll head back now, just contact me directly for any battles starting tomorrow," Lin Su bid farewell, standing up ready to leave the Tianzhan Training Arena.

"I happen to be going out as well; shall I drive you?" Zhong Tianzhan offered with a slight smile, as the conversation with his friend had also concluded while Lin Su was registering and logging the data of his combat pet.

"No need; I live nearby."

"Hmm?" Zhong Tianzhan's eyes widened with surprise.

This area was opposite Mountain City University, and the prices for either renting or buying here were several times higher than other places due to its proximity to Mountain City University. Lin Su, a boy from the 32nd District, was living nearby?

Curious, he couldn't help but ask, "Really? Whereabouts exactly?"

"At the Evolution Research Institute of Mountain City University," Lin Su replied, nodding his head in acknowledgment before turning to leave the Battle Arena.

Evolution Research Institute...

Zhong Tianzhan stood rooted on the spot.

That place was one of the most important institutes at Mountain City University; how had a high school senior managed to get in there?
