That day, Shi Yu and the others arrived at the capital city.

There were only 33 exhibiting teams at this Beast Taming Conference, not a large number.

The threshold for this conference was relatively high.

Only beast taming institutions recognized by the Beast Taming Association, such as the nine major universities' beast taming departments, the beast taming research teams of well-known enterprises, or beast taming teams formed by some well-known beast tamers, were qualified to register.

Like Gu Du University, although it wasn't famous for its beast taming department, it was still a top-tier educational institution, so it definitely had no problem registering successfully.

But if an unknown individual beast tamer wanted to display beast taming results, the procedures would be cumbersome.

They would have to apply to the Beast Taming Association one month in advance, and only after the review panel deemed the beast taming results up to standard could they display them alongside these top beast taming institutions and compete for the top-level resources provided by the Third Bureau.

This was also to filter out some folk beast taming research enthusiasts. If there were no entry requirements for the competition, the gold content of this Beast Taming Conference would be too low. Perhaps someone who developed a new type of dog food would be eager to participate.

At this moment, in an office in the Beast Taming Association Building, the current president of the Beast Taming Association and member of the Third Bureau, a man in a gray suit, yawned and took the exhibition list from his assistant.

The Beast Taming Conference was a competition organized by the Third Bureau. The reason for holding this competition was simple. Although the members of the Third Bureau were all elites in the beast taming world, individual wisdom was undoubtedly insignificant compared to collective wisdom. By offering rewards, they could have individuals and groups display their research results, which could also provide some ideas for their research directions.

Almost every year, the Third Bureau would cooperate with some beast taming institutions through the Beast Taming Conference. The two sides would benefit each other and jointly promote the active development of the beast taming field in Dong Huang.

"There are no novel achievements this year," he said, skimming through the list.

New type of nutritional drink?

Hybrid spirit plant?

Mutated species of tree fruit?

High-species pet assisted pregnancy drug?

And a new evolutionary form of the Green Cotton Worm...

Although these beast taming results were certainly innovative and had very good effects, in terms of type, they were still the same old thing, still delving deeper into fixed fields, and no one was creating a completely new research direction.

In-depth research into existing fields was also good... but the Third Bureau actually wanted to see the emergence of emerging fields.

"President, look, the Gu Du University team..." the male assistant said, "It's very strange."

"Huh?" Ye Hui, the president of the Beast Taming Association, first looked at Gu Du University's beast taming research results... a new evolutionary form of the Green Cotton Worm?

Nothing new...

However, as he saw the team member configuration, his expression changed slightly.

Person in charge: Shi Yu.

Members: Hua Xiajin, Zuo Xiao'e, Xia Qingwei.

"This is..."

Hua Xiajin, Zuo Xiao'e, he knew these two names.

Hua Xiajin was a legendary beast tamer. Although her name couldn't be said to be known to all beast tamers, it certainly wouldn't be unfamiliar to someone of his status.

As for Dr. Zuo Xiao'e, not to mention, she was a well-known doctor in the beast taming world, specializing in insect research, and had researched a large number of evolutionary forms of the Green Cotton Worm, up to the monarch race!

The problem was, Legend Hua was a legendary beast tamer from the Capital City, and Dr. Zuo was a professor at Mo Du University, how did they all end up at Gu Du University!

He knew why the assistant wanted him to look at this team, the configuration was too strange, the person in charge... Shi Yu, who was this again, it felt like he had heard the name somewhere.

Ye Hui stared carefully for a while, linked it to the beast taming research results, and suddenly paused.

The newbie from the Eleventh Bureau who had evolved a medium overlord species, the Imaginary Butterfly, and cultivated a strangely shaped Green Worm Cocoon pet?

"This kid is good, so that's how it is." He thought for a moment, and suddenly understood everything.

This newbie from the Eleventh Bureau could actually get a legendary beast tamer and a well-known doctor to assist in research, absurd. Why didn't the Third Bureau have such a genius newbie? Speaking of why wasn't he focusing on archaeology and now entering the beast taming world, President Ye Hui fell into deep thought.

"By the way, move their exhibition order forward."

"A little curious, what they've come up with based on that..."

...

"Finally arrived."

On the other side, in a huge hotel prepared by the Beast Taming Association for the 33 exhibiting teams, Shi Yu arrived at his room tiredly and flopped onto the bed.

Although he had been traveling by fighter jet all the way, it was quite tiring. Shi Yu finally understood why Dean Hao's Mithril fighter jet had so many seats, because this mechanical life could actually be operated by multiple people at the same time. Dean Hao jokingly let Shi Yu try it, and Shi Yu was directly drained of a lot of physical strength after trying it.

Dean Hao said that currently, many large mechanical lives in the country were like this. Although they were mainly controlled by one beast tamer, they could be strengthened by multiple people together. This was the main development direction of mechanical life at present, which could maximize the collection of the power of some idle beast tamers.

If a war really broke out again, they couldn't count on beast tamers below the legendary level to change the course of the battle. It would be good enough if they could protect themselves.

But if there was an overlord-level mechanical life that could gather the power of thousands of low-level beast tamers and condense their power into one, then low-level beast tamers would also have the ability to change the course of the battle.

When ten thousand beast tamers with thunder-type strengthening talents jointly strengthen a warship and fire a thunder-type giant cannon, the power would definitely be stronger than if a beast tamer strengthened it alone.

This plasticity of mechanical life was also the reason why various countries were vigorously developing it.

"I'm also someone who has flown a fighter jet... although I didn't get to fire a shot along the way..."

Just as Shi Yu was thinking about what his mechanical life would look like, there was a knock on the door.

"Shi Yu." Accompanied by the sound of knock, knock, knock, Xia Qingwei's voice rang out.

"Xiao Xia, what's the matter?" Shi Yu stretched and opened the door, looking at this research assistant in a blue dress.

"Are you going to eat? My mom asked me to call you." Xia Qingwei was annoyed. She was also a well-known figure at Mo Du University, a rising star in the Mo Du University team. When she arrived at Gu Du University, she was directly reduced to Xiao Xia. The key was that Xia Qingwei wasn't angry, because she was crushed by Shi Yu in terms of both strength and beast taming.

"The hotel has a buffet restaurant, you can eat there for all three meals."

"Did Aunt Zuo and the others go?" Shi Yu asked.

"My mom and Aunt Hua said they went to see friends, it's just the two of us."

"I'm not hungry, you go," Shi Yu said.

Xia Qingwei: ???

Shi Yu had already eaten Ginseng Baby's nutritional fruit just now, and his stomach wasn't hungry, but the aftereffects were a bit strong, and he just wanted to lie down and sleep now.

"Okay." Xia Qingwei didn't invite him either, she said, "If you're hungry, go by yourself, remember it's on the tenth floor."

"Okay, thanks." After Shi Yu sent Xia Qingwei away, he prepared to rest well and welcome tomorrow's exhibition conference. He first took out the research suit gifted by Principal Feng, planning to replace his Flame Demon coat with this next.

This research suit should be the same style as Senior Sister Lu's. According to Principal Feng, it was made of the highest-level six-level material, and was very expensive, with multiple effects such as strengthening the mind and soul.

After preparing his clothes, Shi Yu yawned and finally took a look at the situation in the ruins space.

Eleven was practicing a combination skill with the Giantization skill as the core.

After Shi Yu had brought Eleven's Giantization to "Skill Reaching the Dao," the biggest change, besides allowing Eleven to turn into a hundred-meter giant beast, was that it had the special ability to Giantize Skills.

It could be roughly said that if Eleven released Thunder Palm, it could completely explode more power according to the standards after Giantization. With a one-meter body, it could slap out a huge Thunder Palm with a diameter of a hundred meters, detach from itself and crush the enemy, allowing the skill to surpass its original limit.

Shi Yu named it: Giantized Skill.

Releasing Giantized Skills in its normal state, compared to releasing skills after Giantization, the difference was that it consumed much less energy, but the power was not much different.

It retained the flexibility of a small body and gained the explosive power after Giantization.

Compared to the hardworking Eleven, Little Chi Tong was very comfortable, lying in a pile of ice, roasting the sweet potato-shaped nutrient snacks that Ginseng Baby had prepared for it, freely watching Worm and Ginseng Baby study new combination tactics.

"Wu!" Worm and Ginseng Baby were arguing with reason.

It believed that it sealed the enemy in Space Shackles, and then used Instant Transmission to transfer a large amount of explosive energy fruits made by Ginseng Baby into the sealed space. Finally, they detonated the space and energy fruits at the same time, so the power was enough, which could be called "Invincible", and was the strongest tactic!

"Yi!" However, Ginseng Baby felt that this was too cruel and too utilitarian, and not suitable for ordinary battles. Apart from Eleven, no opponent should be able to withstand it, so it was better to use some handsome tactics.

For example, the "Yi Frame Invincible Bombing Tactics," they could fly directly into the sky and throw energy fruit bombs to bomb.

Shi Yu could see that Ginseng Baby was doing it on purpose, it just wanted to fly, otherwise, whether it was Eleven or it, they could match up with the versatile Worm to create a pile of dirty tactics. In the team, it seemed that only it couldn't fly...

"Sleep..." Shi Yu stopped worrying about the pets' affairs and fell down directly.

...

The next morning.

Shi Yu put on his research suit. Although it wasn't necessary, it was better to wear normal and formal clothes for this occasion.

"How was your rest?" Early in the morning, after Shi Yu met with Dr. Zuo, Legend Hua, and others, he was asked.

"Not bad." Shi Yu smiled, he was now the type who could sleep soundly anywhere.

"That's good, let's go have breakfast first, and then go over as soon as possible. The conference starts at 8 o'clock, we're the second to present, so we have to prepare in advance," Legend Hua said.

While chatting, the group headed to the hotel buffet floor. Besides Shi Yu and the others, many members of other beast taming teams were also dining here.

After arriving here, Shi Yu casually took a glass of milk and a plate of pastries. He was still not very hungry... Ginseng Baby's nutrients were getting more and more powerful.

Holding the plate, Shi Yu found a place to sit down.

"Cough, cough, cough." However, he hadn't sat down for long when the simple milk and pastries almost choked Shi Yu, because he suddenly saw a young man with an eye on his forehead walking past in front, and was suddenly startled.

Shi Yu stared straight over. At this time, Xia Qingwei had also just taken her breakfast and glanced over, saying, "It's a Three-Eyed Clan hybrid."

"A hybrid," Shi Yu said in a low voice.

"Yes, a hybrid with bloodline leaning towards the human race." Xia Qingwei nodded and said, "Three-Eyed Clan humans can also open up beast taming spaces and become beast tamers, but their beast taming talent is uniform, which is the third eye, which functions similarly to the Heavenly Eye. It is a superior skill of super vision and belongs to a reconnaissance-type special talent. It is said that there is also a way to see through the potential talent of pets."

"Sigh~" Shi Yu was the first time seeing a living hybrid.

Highlighting, living.

Hybrids are actually divided into two types.

One type is mainly human, with some bloodlines of other creatures. Such humans can still open up beast taming spaces, such as General Mu Huiyin, the empress, and the Three-Eyed human just now.

The other type is that the bloodline of extraordinary creatures occupies the main position, with a small amount of human bloodline.

They and creatures that do not have human bloodlines but have appearances relatively similar to humans are collectively called humanoid pets.

This type of creature does not have beast taming spaces, but has various skills, so they can be contracted as pets by beast tamers, which is a side-door pet classification different from elements, plants, undead, and machines.

As far as Shi Yu knew, mermaids in the ocean, dragon girls in Dragon Palace City, werewolves and vampires in the West, and even the legendary angels, all belonged to humanoid creatures and could be contracted as pets. It was just unknown whether these sayings were true or false.

Mermaids were okay, Senior Sister Lu seemed to have contracted a mermaid princess, contracted for exploring underwater ruins, as for the others, especially things like angels, it was really a bit difficult to judge the truth.

"Eat quickly," Xia Qingwei said. Shi Yu then stuffed all the pastries into his mouth.

If he remembered correctly, among the thirteen bureaus of Dong Huang, there seemed to be one bureau specifically set up for mixed-blood human races?

It was learned from Principal Feng's chat that the overall combat power seemed to be not weak.

...

When Shi Yu and the others arrived at the venue, a group of people had already gathered here.

However, unlike the national competition, which was a battle competition, the Beast Taming Conference was attended by industry insiders, and invited powerful beast tamers and beast tamers. It was not something that could be watched by simply buying a ticket.

Therefore, in the entire venue, including the audience, there may not have been more than two thousand people. It was not as grand as a meaningless teacher-student school meeting held by a high school.

On the Gu Du University seat side, Principal Feng, Dean Hao, and the others had been sitting and waiting for a long time. Some experts and professors from the Gu Du University Beast Taming Department had also come.

Originally, Gu Du University had no outstanding research results this year except for the Iron-Eating Beast evolution form. The Green Worm Cocoon research could be said to be a timely help for Gu Du University. Otherwise, this year's Gu Du University Beast Taming Department would definitely be at the bottom again, or give up participating.

"Let's go over."

"Qingwei, cooperate well with Shi Yu later, don't be nervous." While Shi Yu and the others were walking towards their seats, Dr. Zuo said to Xia Qingwei.

"I know." Xia Qingwei nodded.

There were more people at the national competition than this, and she wasn't nervous. What was there to be nervous about this?

That being said... Xia Qingwei was still a little uneasy. As a student of Mo Du University, it was reasonable to assist students from Gu Du University to participate in the conference... She glanced at the Mo Du University seat, feeling a little guilty.

Beside her, Legend Hua had a smile on her face. These days, Dr. Zuo had been squeezing Xia Qingwei a lot, but anyone could see that she was helping Xia Qingwei. Such research results, even if only a little effort was put in during the process, would be of great help to future development.

"We're the second... Then which beast taming team is the first to exhibit?" Shi Yu asked as soon as he sat down.

As the leader of the Gu Du University Beast Taming Team... he came here yesterday and slept until night...

"I remember it's... Capital University?" Legend Hua thought for a moment and said, "Yes, it should be Capital University."

"Their Beast Taming Department seems to be quite strong..."

"But this time, no one can compete with us anyway."

Capital University and Mo Du University were schools with no departmental shortcomings. Besides being strong in the battle department, other departments were also strong.

"Capital University?"

Shi Yu was stunned, it was such a coincidence. He was going to Capital University for a battle exchange later, but he didn't expect to meet Capital University's beast taming results before that...
