Inside the Ancient Capital University, there were numerous training facilities, even including secret realm spaces.

Within these training facilities, the training efficiency of pets could be greatly enhanced.

Shi Yu's last visit to the Ancient Capital University only involved experiencing the Battle Tower, which trained Beast Tamers' survival abilities.

This time, he planned to go to a holy land for plant-type pets at the Ancient Capital University: the Botanical Garden.

"Let's go out for a bit."

"Maybe, we can take you to a battle along the way."

After deciding to sneak in to learn skills, Shi Yu exited the relic space and said to the Ginseng Baby, who was holding a fruit and staring at him from the table.

"Ee? (Battle?)"

The Ginseng Baby's eyes lit up.

It felt both strong and weak at the same time.

Purely because its two teammates were too strong, the Ginseng Baby didn't have a proper assessment of its own combat power yet.

In short, it had been looking forward to the day Shi Yu would take it to challenge other pets for a long time.

"That's right."

"You go to the Beast Taming Space to sleep for a while and recover your state. I'll call you later."

Under the Ginseng Baby's expectant expression, Shi Yu summoned it back to the Beast Taming Space.

Having just contracted the Ginseng Baby, Shi Yu was still willing to let it rest more in his own Beast Taming Space to foster their bond.

After finishing up, Shi Yu grabbed his campus student card and headed out.

…

"By the way, I wonder how it would go if I went to challenge the internet-addicted Grandma at the Battle Tower now."

Walking towards the Botanical Garden, Shi Yu muttered.

He was still very vengeful.

Back then, he wanted to use the Bone Sword to PK the energy body pets in the Battle Tower, but was ganged up on. But now, with his extremely strong physical fitness, Shi Yu felt he could take revenge…

He was no longer the man who could only use Ethereal Form to dodge skills. Well, he would try the Botanical Garden first, then the Battle Tower.

"Hey, look, doesn't that person look like the Iron-Eating Beast Knight…"

As Shi Yu walked, he suddenly heard someone discussing him.

He glanced sideways and saw two girls carrying a bag of daily necessities, whispering something to each other.

Unfortunately, after Shi Yu's physique was strengthened, his eyesight and hearing had also been enhanced, so he could still hear them.

"A bit, that Iron-Eating Beast Knight is an archaeologist, so he should have enrolled in our Ancient Capital University."

"Is that him in person? He's much more handsome than in the videos. He looks silly in the videos, making me laugh until my stomach hurts."

"Heh…" Shi Yu couldn't help but quicken his pace. Foolish humans.

They didn't look like freshmen, probably returning older students. His fame had spread so quickly…

"Trouble comes with fame." Shi Yu took out a black and white baseball cap from the relic space and put it on, trying not to be recognized. If he still got recognized, he would be forced to wear a mask.

…

The Ancient Capital University was too big. It took Shi Yu a lot of effort to get from the dormitory to the Botanical Garden.

In fact, the area of the Botanical Garden, despite having the word "garden" in its name, was quite outrageous.

According to the school's official website, its area was no less than Tianmang Mountain, which he had visited in Pingcheng, and even larger than Lin Xiuzhu's Iron-Eating Beast breeding base.

It was actually a mountain, but the entire Botanical Garden mountain had been clearly divided into several areas.

There were areas with abundant water resources, areas with abundant earth energy, and areas with rich grass, wood, natural power, and solar power. These had all been modified to be suitable for various plant-type pets to live in.

It could be said that using Earth Chain and Stored Energy Beam here would maximize their effects.

"We're here."

The entrance of the Botanical Garden was separated by a white building. Shi Yu glanced around. It was deserted, so he didn't pay much attention and directly entered.

As soon as he entered, Shi Yu smelled a fragrance. He immediately judged that it was the Sweet Scent skill.

However, this level was probably only proficient. It was nothing much. He didn't even feel anything after smelling it.

"Hello…" After Shi Yu entered the lobby of the building, a girl in a white dress, who was trimming flowers, stopped her work and looked up in surprise.

Besides her, the interior of the building was like a huge office. A group of young people were sitting in front of computers. They glanced over here, and after seeing someone was receiving Shi Yu, they continued to busy themselves with their work.

"Hello." Shi Yu greeted the senior.

"What kind of service do you need?" she asked with a smile.

Shi Yu felt it was a bit strange, but fortunately, he had done enough homework before coming.

Students came to the Botanical Garden for three main reasons.

1. To release pets for free-range breeding.

The environment of the Botanical Garden was very suitable for the growth of plant-type pets. If the pets were relatively obedient, students could release their pets here for a certain period of time without any problems, which could have a good effect. During this period, students and teachers majoring in breeding would also help take care of the pets, while providing food, nutrients, and medical services.

2. To contract new pets.

The Botanical Garden also had a breeding base function, with a large number of commander-level plant-type pet cubs. Their growth levels were basically at the awakening level. These pets could be contracted and were suitable for Beast Tamers to contract, but students needed to exchange a certain amount of credits for contracting qualifications.

The Seven-Star Clover that Senior Lu mentioned lived somewhere in the Botanical Garden.

3. Combat training.

The Botanical Garden also had a large number of well-grown transcendent creatures. There were even commander-level and monarch-level creatures living inside to guard the Botanical Garden. For some students who wanted to increase their combat experience with plant-type pets, the Botanical Garden also provided combat training services.

At the same time, some pets released by students could also be considered challengeable opponents.

Therefore, there were many opportunities for battle here.

"Combat," Shi Yu said.

"Okay, student, come over and register." The senior who was working part-time here signaled Shi Yu to follow her.

"Okay." Shi Yu nodded, feeling that the environment here was not bad.

At least no one cared about him, and this senior didn't seem to recognize him.

As expected of the breeding department, they didn't pay any attention to the results of the professional assessment.

Perhaps compared to the professional Beast Tamer assessment, this group of people was more concerned about the professional breeder assessment.

Next, Shi Yu followed the senior to a machine to swipe his card for registration. Releasing pets for free-range breeding and contracting new pets required paying credits, while combat training was completely free. However, each student had a certain number of times per month, which was also to prevent the Botanical Garden from being overloaded and unable to operate normally.

"Oh, level 178? Are you a freshman?" The senior was slightly surprised when she saw the information after Shi Yu swiped his card.

Level 178 Archaeology student, Shi Yu…

At this time, wasn't it before the freshmen had started school?

However, she quickly understood that if it was a freshman with some connections, it wasn't uncommon to enroll and move in early.

"Yes."

"You're a junior." Discovering that he was a freshman, the part-time senior was much more polite. She smiled and said, "Are you planning to wander around by yourself, or do you want to designate a pet to battle?"

In this Botanical Garden, there were many elite pets that were almost invincible at the same level. Students who wanted to train in combat could even designate certain pets in the Botanical Garden to battle. Of course, they could also go in and try their luck randomly.

"I'll wander around by myself." Shi Yu smiled.

"Okay, be careful. Most of the pets in the Botanical Garden have been released here by seniors, and they're very fierce," the senior reminded him.

"Understood." Shi Yu nodded.

He was aiming for the pets of seniors. He thought the wild ones were too weak.

"Can you go in by yourself?" Because Shi Yu was a freshman, the part-time senior asked one more question.

"No problem." Shi Yu reassured her as he took the location pointer from her hand.

This location pointer gadget could guide Shi Yu to enter the combat area of the Botanical Garden, help him find his way, and leave. In addition, he could also use the Ancient Capital University's official website software for navigation, but it wasn't as convenient and accurate.

…

After registering, Shi Yu entered the Botanical Garden.

As Shi Yu entered, a senior in front of a computer stretched lazily with difficulty. He didn't expect to have to work before school even started.

For the stability of the Botanical Garden, to prevent conflicts between the released pets, there were also surveillance cameras everywhere in the Botanical Garden. His job was to discover unstable factors. Among them, students coming here for combat training could also be considered unstable factors that needed attention.

He looked at the screen. At this time, Shi Yu had followed the location pointer and entered the combat area.

In the combat area, there were basically no ferocious beasts below the transcendent level, and they were all very brave and good at fighting. Soon, the senior was stunned.

Because as soon as he entered, Shi Yu encountered a transcendent-level Rage Wood Lizard.

This was a half-meter-long lizard whose entire body was made of wood material. Although it looked like an animal, it was indeed a plant-type life form. In essence, it was wood.

"A wild Rage Wood Lizard…" The senior's expression was still calm, but what made him uneasy was that Shi Yu didn't seem to have any intention of summoning a pet after seeing this Rage Wood Lizard???

In the picture, Shi Yu and the Rage Wood Lizard looked at each other…

"Combat power is only 5… no, energy value is only 599 trash." After seeing the energy value of the Rage Wood Lizard in front of him through the invisible lens-type illustrated handbook, Shi Yu sighed in his heart. It was too weak.

A pet of this level could be knocked unconscious by a single Sweet Scent from the Ginseng Baby. There was no point in fighting.

"Hello, do you want to PK? You PK with me, but we have a three-chapter agreement. You can't use skills."

However, Shi Yu still used telepathy to challenge the Rage Wood Lizard.

Ginseng Baby: ???

What about letting me fight???

The Rage Wood Lizard was also stunned: ???

It had been living here for a while, and it had never seen such a strange request.

The name Rage Wood Lizard sounded very irritable, but in fact, they were also very good gardeners. Their feces were excellent high-quality fertilizer, so the Botanical Garden raised many of them.

But even so, it didn't mean that Rage Wood Lizards had no combat power.

"Hiss!!! (You said it, don't regret it.)" After being silent, the Rage Wood Lizard chose to grant Shi Yu's wish.

It jumped directly towards Shi Yu, but it didn't want to hurt him. If it dared to hurt a human, it would become dinner for those monarchs and commanders in the Botanical Garden tonight. It just wanted to knock Shi Yu down and let Shi Yu see how powerful it was.

However…

Just as the Rage Wood Lizard pounced towards Shi Yu, before it even touched him, it felt an unparalleled heavy blow to its stomach. With a "boom", it was directly sent flying and crashed into a tree in the distance.

On the spot, Shi Yu moved his slightly sore fist and looked at the Rage Wood Lizard.

"Again!" Shi Yu said.

As expected of him, his physique was not much worse than that of a transcendent-level ferocious beast. He could actually gain the upper hand against a creature like the Rage Wood Lizard, which wasn't known for its physique??

If he reached the current level cap, he might be able to spar with transcendent creatures that used skills!

At this time, after being sent flying by a punch, the Rage Wood Lizard got up blankly, staring at the human in front of it with a look of horror.

Although this punch didn't cause it much damage, it still hurt. It thought about it, this fight was unbearable.

"Hiss!!! (Fight my ass, I can't hurt you, and you're so strong, are you even human?)" The Rage Wood Lizard roared angrily, turned around and left, and even pulled out a pile of poop on the spot to show its disdain.

In the Botanical Garden, it didn't matter how the pets fought, as long as there were no deaths. But Beast Tamers were absolutely not allowed to be injured. This was the rule.

Shi Yu: "…"

Seeing the Rage Wood Lizard run away, Shi Yu was silent. In the Botanical Garden's building lobby, the senior staring at the monitor was also shocked.

"Holy sh*t."

What the hell was this student? What major was he from? What was he here for? Were you here to train yourself, or to train your pet? If you want to train yourself, go to the Battle Tower obediently.
