"Ancient Spirit Taming Technique?That scoundrel Lady She Xiang, she's always looked down on breeding and cultivation, calling it an idle profession. She wouldn't pester me repeatedly for a Door Breeding Skill," Qiu Chuzi shook his beard, "How much have you comprehended this Spirit Taming Technique?"
Unless Shalman's perception reached the 'Great Perfection' level, She Xiang would never be so persistent.
"The realm of comprehension, actually that day, I had only managed to reach the Initial Involvement level. But in the last moment, I heard a delightful chant. Then, I felt a clarity in my mind, and my blocked Divine Sense was opened up, and unknowingly, I entered the realm of comprehension," For Shalman, whose Dark Skill cultivation was not outstanding, reaching the hundred percent effective 'Comprehension' level was already not easy.
"Comprehension, not bad, not bad, then what about you, Jinghua?" Qiu Chuzi already had an idea in mind, and he directly asked Yue Jinghua.
Then Yue Jinghua widened her mouth, her face full of envy: "Ancient Spirit Taming Technique, just by listening to the name sounds like a formidable Dark Skill. Shalman, could you tell more, can this Spirit Taming Technique breed very powerful Dark Beasts?"
"That, Dean. You just said, as long as I am capable, the Outer Court will fully support my cultivation, were those words true?" Shalman asked pitifully.
"Of course, the Outer Court emphasizes elite education, as long as you are wholeheartedly striving for improvement, even if I have to perform breaking stones with my chest on the streets, I will support you. Ancient Spirit Taming Technique, just from the name, it sounds very imposing, it definitely can nurture High-level Dark Beasts, the Outer Court will definitely support fully," The price of a High-level Dark Beast is astronomical, thinking of the continual income from Dark Beasts, Qiu Chuzi is already quite excited.
"Then please, Dean, help me purchase ten Ancient Xuan Beast Eggs, preferably between five hundred to a thousand years old," Shalman said with an innocent face.
Ancient Spirit Taming Technique, as the name implies, is different from the common Dark Beast Breeding Techniques; it can hatch the eggs of Ancient Dark Beasts. Canglong Continent has existed for tens of thousands of years, and the Dark Beasts have evolved several times. With the rise of the Dark Practitioners, a lot of rare Ancient Dark Beasts were slaughtered and domesticated; some are even extinct.
For example, the kind of Dark Beasts like dragons, have not appeared on the continent for a thousand years.
Ancient Eggs are not common on the continent; they are only produced in the most remote ancient relics or ancient battlefields of the Eastern Continent, and their prices are also very high.
Qiu Chuzi's old face, with a smile like sunshine melting snow, disappeared without a trace, his face changing so fast that even Yue Jinghua was amazed.
"Antique Eggs, you are talking about the antique eggs produced by Ancient Dark Beasts? Those expensive items that princes and nobles buy for decoration? This... I just remembered, the chimney in the dining room is broken, I need to fix it, tomorrow is the homecoming day of the Royal Academy, tidy up early, and go home to reunite," Qiu Chuzi escaped faster than a rabbit.
"I knew it would scare the Dean, it would be better if the Vice Dean was here. Let's not talk about this, Jinghua, what exactly happened that day in the Xuan Technique Pavilion, did you find any suitable Dark Techniques?" Shalman bitterly smiled, it was also her wishful thinking, knowing very well that the conditions for this ancient Spirit Taming Technique were harsh, yet she still insisted on practicing it.
She and Shaluo are different, without a family to rely on, it's difficult even to get a complete antique egg, and the Outer Court is not obligated to create conditions for her.
Qiu Chuzi's attitude, Shalman did not take too seriously, she had been in the Outer Court longer than Yue Jinghua, and understood the situation well.
Though Lady She Xiang and Qiu Chuzi now seem like fire and water, in fact, years ago, the two were a pair of close comrade-lovers.
The two were well-known mercenary masters on the Canglong Continent, and after retiring, they returned to their homeland Shang Kingdom and together took over the restructured Xuanji Academy.
When running the academy, the equally strong-willed two encountered conflicts.
Lady She Xiang, born into the nobility of Shang Kingdom, only wanted to recruit Dark Practitioners who were either of excellent lineage or had exceptional talent, a typical supporter of elite education. Coming from a poor background, Qiu Chuzi believed that everyone was equal, even if it were a waste, as long as they found the right specialty, they could be fully utilized, a typical supporter of an individual approach.
The two disagreed and eventually split the Xuanji Academy into two. Lady She Xiang, adept in strategies and influential in the Kingdom, quickly managed the Inner Court systematically.
