Chapter 2003: The Most Potential
Ning Shu stared hard at Little Grass as if she was observing its structure under a microscope.
Owners should completely understand their summoned beasts.
Ning Shu was lost in thought as she stared at Little Grass. Then, she was pushed by someone and immediately snapped out of her trance. She looked at Lian Bingmeng. Lian Bingmeng covered her mouth with her hand and whispered, “The instructor called you.”
Ning Shu stood up, her mind blanking.
“Is my class so uninteresting that you need to zone out from start to finish?” Instructor Wen asked gently.
His manner wasn’t at all like he was scolding someone but it still made her feel quite ashamed.
“I apologize. I’ll pay careful attention,” Ning Shu said.
“Sit down then,” Instructor Wen said. “The strength of a summoner lies not only in their summoned beast but also in the summoner themselves. When powerful monsters and summoned beasts become stronger, they will all change into human forms.”
“Although we humans don’t have solid armor or an enormous body, we have the most potential. It doesn’t matter if the summoned beast is weak, if the summoner is powerful the beast will be as well.”
“As long as you can defeat the besieging monsters, you are a powerful summoner,” Instructor Wen said.
Ning Shu didn’t know whether or not he was saying this to her, but she still took note of it in her heart. It didn’t matter if she was a white cat or a black cat, as long as she caught mice she was a good cat.
“Next, go to the training room and start training your control over your summoned beast. Give orders to it from your consciousness.” Instructor Wen led everyone to the training room next door.
“I have never seen anyone as gentle as Instructor Wen.” Lian Bingmeng stared at Instructor Wen’s back. She had never seen anyone like him in both of her lifetimes.
Ning Shu didn’t think he was gentle, but rather that he was tolerant and open-minded. Those who were genuinely powerful could face anything.
Because their spirits were strong.
If it were another instructor, Ning Shu would have been harshly scolded. Not only did she have poor natural talent, but she also didn’t pay attention in class.
Ning Shu carried the small flowerpot to the training room next door. The training room was very large and had all sorts of props.
“Release your summoned beasts,” Instructor Wen said gently.
The dozen or so students released their summoned beasts one after another. There were all kinds of summoned beasts: snakes, wolves, tigers, birds… There were animals who could run on the ground, fly in the sky, swim in the water… Every type was there.
But they were all mutated. For example, some wolves had a pair of wings.
Some summoned beasts were majestic and awe-inspiring, but the slightly weaker summoned beasts were shivering timidly as they faced their natural predators.
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu stared at the shiny green Little Grass in the flower pot she was holding.
Only after everyone else released their summoned beasts did Lian Bingmeng release hers. Her summoned beast was a dragon. When it was first released, it looked small and cute.
It was chubby and had a pair of small fleshy wings. It seemed to simply be a harmless little cute creature.
But those present didn’t dare to look down upon this little chubby thing. If this thing transformed, it could become much bigger than it was now. It would be fierce and powerful.
As soon as the dragon came out, some weak summoned beasts lay flat on the ground and retreated with whimpers. On the other hand, the stronger summoned beasts bristled angrily and bared their fangs as they eyed the cute little thing vigilantly.
The little dragon jumped into Lian Bingmeng’s arms and rubbed its head against her, playing cute. “Alright, stop messing around now.”
“Your summoned beast is very strong. Train it well.” Instructor Wen looked at the little chubby dragon.
“Thank you, Instructor,” Lian Bingmeng said with a smile.
“Next, give your summoned beast an order to jump over the ledge in front of you. The summoned beast needs to understand what you mean so you can better cooperate during battles in the future.”
