Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 6: Chapter 2 Different Destinies (Seeking Investment and Followers)_2

While the Lin parents focused their concern on Lin Su, Physician Ye began to communicate with his bonded pet beast. After receiving a mental report from the Silent Bell, the doctor's eyebrows rose in amazement as he cast a surprised glance toward Lin Su. He hesitated for a brief moment before deciding to step forward.

"Pardon me... Lord and Lady, while my pet beast was utilizing the Silent Bell, it incidentally scanned the young master's internal condition..."

"Is something wrong? Does Su'er have other complications?" Lin Su's mother interjected with a worried tone. Seeing Physician Ye's hesitant behavior, her distress only grew. "Please, just speak plainly!"

"Madam, do not be alarmed; it is not a terrible issue," Physician Ye quickly clarified to soothe her misunderstanding. He then began his explanation, "It is simply that... the young master's Beast Taming Space appears to have already reached the second tier?"

The moment the words left his mouth, a heavy silence once again filled the room.

The second tier?

Lin Su quietly shut his eyes, activating the meditation technique he had learned in school to inspect his own Beast Taming Space.

He found an internal space several times larger than a standard first-tier Beast Taming Space; furthermore, the surrounding boundary membrane had transitioned from a pure white to a pale yellow hue.

It really was the second tier.

It appeared the original soul had already practiced Cultivation of the Beast Taming Space, providing a solid foundation so that he wouldn't have to begin his journey from nothing...

However, something felt off. How could he be at the second tier and still possess no contracted pet beast?

The Beast Taming Space sat entirely vacant, lacking even a single remnant of a previous bond.

Moreover, based on Physician Ye’s surprised tone, it seemed no one had been aware that the original Lin Su had reached the second tier.

Something was definitely strange.

Opening his eyes slowly, he covertly studied the expressions of his father and mother.

Their faces were a complex map of emotions, blending shock and disbelief with what appeared to be a hint of relief.

Eventually, Lin Su’s father let out a soft sigh. "I see. Physician Ye, you may take your leave now."

Physician Ye offered a nod, bid them farewell, and exited the chamber.

Once the doctor had departed, only Lin Su and his parents remained in the room.

The couple shared a meaningful look before approaching Lin Su with earnest gazes. "Su'er, perhaps I truly did pressure you too much in the past," his father admitted. "You were always captivated by the path of Beast Tamers, yet I insisted you dedicate yourself to martial arts.

This was because the era of Beast Tamers has long since faded. Had you followed that path, you would have struggled to compete against martial artists of the same rank in the future."

"However, this accident has changed my perspective. Be it a Beast Tamer or a martial artist, your happiness is what matters most. Besides, since your Beast Taming Space has unexpectedly reached the second tier, martial arts Cultivation is no longer a possibility for you anyway. This allows me to finally abandon that old ambition."

Forcing a small smile, Lin Su's father gave his shoulder a gentle pat. "Su'er, though you have regained consciousness, you must still rest and recover. I will say no more for now. Use this time to consider what kind of initial pet beast you desire. Our family's wealth is sufficient; we can even provide a pet beast from a sovereign race."

With those final words, he pushed the door open and left. Lin Su's mother, her eyes shimmering with motherly care, added a final reminder: "Prioritize your health; a maid will bring you a bowl of tonic shortly, and be sure to drink all of the bitter medicine." She then tiptoed out of the room.

Lin Su sat there, his expression turning blank.

The revelations provided by his father were staggering.

In addition to Beast Tamers, there was a separate path for martial arts?

Beast Tamers were considered inferior and unable to defeat martial artists of equal level?

His Beast Taming Space had suddenly jumped to the second tier?

And having a second-tier Beast Taming Space meant he was barred from martial arts?

The young man felt as if his head were filled with endless questions.

"Young Master, the medicine is ready." A timid voice interrupted his thoughts as a young maid, perhaps fourteen or fifteen years old, entered the room carefully carrying a bowl.

Lin Su recognized her as the girl who had run to fetch his parents when he first woke up.

He took the bowl and swallowed the bitter liquid in one go before turning to her. "What is your name?"

"Young Master, I am Azi, your personal maidservant." The girl, aware of his memory loss, answered without shock, though she remained noticeably shy.

"Understood," Lin Su nodded. "I've finished the medicine. Sit down for a moment; I have some questions for you."

"...Yes, Young Master."

...

A short while later, after Azi had finished answering his inquiries and left with the empty bowl, Lin Su remained on the bed, lost in contemplation.

Through this questioning, he had gained a much clearer picture of his surroundings.

Most importantly, this world was not Blue Star, but a realm known as the Divine Martial World.

He was a member of the Lin Family in Yongnan City, located within the Great Yan Kingdom.

As for why both worlds had Beast Tamers... it was because the Ghost Energy Stone had manifested in both realms.

At the start of the Ghost Energy Stone disaster, humanity in the Divine Martial World suffered even more severely than those on Blue Star, nearly facing extinction at the hands of alien beasts. This led to the rise of Beast Tamers, but eventually, undying-tier creatures appeared, leading to the Alien Beast Ban which crippled the power of Beast Tamers.

However, the histories of the two worlds diverged sharply at that point.

On Blue Star, beast taming was integrated with scientific study, allowing for the early discovery and implementation of alien beast evolution. In contrast, the Divine Martial World had been a primitive society before the Ghost Energy Stone appeared. The early Beast Tamers lacked the resources for such research and remained ignorant of how to evolve lower-tier species into higher ones.

Consequently, when the Alien Beast Ban took effect, the rising generation of Beast Tamers found themselves completely marginalized and broken...
