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

While the Lin family parents focused their attention on Lin Su, Physician Ye began a mental dialogue with his pet beast. Upon receiving the feedback from the Silent Bell, the doctor’s brows rose in astonishment as he fixed a surprised gaze on Lin Su. He hesitated for a brief moment before deciding to step forward.

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

"What is it? Are there other complications with Su'er?" Lin Su’s mother questioned with growing dread. Seeing Physician Ye’s hesitant manner, her panic surged as she urged, "Speak plainly!"

"Madam, please remain calm; it isn't bad news." Noticing her misunderstanding, Physician Ye quickly attempted to soothe her before offering his explanation. "It is just 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 closed his eyes and began to circulate the meditation technique he had learned in high school, turning his consciousness inward to inspect his own Beast Taming Space.

His internal space was several times more expansive than a standard first-tier Beast Taming Space, and the color of the boundary membrane had shifted from a pure white to a pale yellow.

It was, without a doubt, the second tier.

It appeared the original owner of this body had already practiced the cultivation of the Beast Taming Space, providing him with a solid foundation so he wouldn't have to begin from the very start...

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

The Beast Taming Space was entirely vacant, showing no signs of ever having been bound to a creature.

Furthermore, based on Physician Ye’s shocked tone, it seemed no one had any idea that the original Lin Su had reached the second tier.

Something definitely felt wrong.

He opened his eyes slowly, carefully watching the reactions of Lin Su’s father and mother.

The expressions on their faces were incredibly vivid, a mixture of shock and disbelief, though there also seemed to be a hint of relief hidden within.

After a long pause, Lin Su’s father let out a soft sigh. "I understand. Physician Ye, you may take your leave now."

Physician Ye offered a nod, opened the door to say his goodbyes, and exited the room.

With the doctor gone, only Lin Su and his parents remained in the chamber.

His parents shared a meaningful look before stepping closer to look at Lin Su with deep sincerity. "Su'er, perhaps your father really did push you too hard in the past. You were always captivated by the path of Beast Tamers, yet I constantly insisted that you follow the way of martial arts."

"I did this because the path of Beast Tamers has long since fallen into decline. Had you followed it, you would have struggled to hold your own against martial arts experts of the same level in the future."

"But after your accident, my perspective has shifted. Whether you choose to be a Beast Tamer or a martial artist, your happiness is what matters most. Besides, since your Beast Taming Space has suddenly reached the second tier, martial arts cultivation is no longer an option for you anyway. This allows me to finally abandon that old ambition."

Lin Su’s father forced a faint smile and gave Lin Su’s shoulder a gentle pat. "Su'er, even though you’ve regained consciousness, you still require a period of quiet recovery. I won't pester you further. During this time, think about what kind of initial pet beast you would like to choose. Our family possesses great wealth; we can even provide you with a pet beast from a sovereign race."

Having said his piece, he quietly pushed the door open and departed. Lin Su’s mother looked at him with eyes overflowing with maternal care, leaving him with a final instruction: "Look after your health. The maid will bring you a bowl of tonic shortly; be sure to drink all of the bitter medicine." She then tiptoed out of the room.

Lin Su sat there, his face a mask of wooden confusion.

The information his father had just dropped was surprisingly massive.

In addition to the path of Beast Tamers, a path of martial arts existed?

Beast Tamers were considered inferior and were no match for martial artists of the same rank?

His Beast Taming Space had reached the second tier out of nowhere?

And having a second-tier Beast Taming Space made practicing martial arts impossible?

He felt like a child overwhelmed by a thousand questions.

"Young master, the medicine is ready." A timid voice broke his thoughts as a maid, appearing to be no more than fourteen or fifteen, entered the room while carefully balancing a bowl of medicine.

Lin Su recognized her; she was the same girl who had run to fetch his parents when he first woke up.

After taking the bowl and draining the bitter liquid in a single gulp, Lin Su looked toward the maid. "What is your name?"

"Young master, I am Azi, your personal maidservant." Knowing of his memory loss, the girl didn't seem shocked by the question, though she maintained her bashful, fearful demeanor.

"I see," Lin Su said with a nod. "I’ve finished the medicine. Now, sit down; I have several questions for you."

"...Yes."

...

A short while later, after Azi had finished answering his questions and left with the empty bowl, Lin Su sat on his bed, lost in thought once more.

Through his questioning, he had gained a much clearer grasp of this reality.

First, this was definitely not Blue Star. This place was known as the Divine Martial World.

He was currently residing with the Lin Family in Yongnan City, located within the Great Yan Kingdom.

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

When the Ghost Energy Stone cataclysm first began, humanity in the Divine Martial World faced a far more desperate struggle than those on Blue Star, nearly falling to extinction at the hands of alien beasts. This led to the rise of Beast Tamers, but the subsequent emergence of undying-tier alien beasts resulted in the Alien Beast Ban, which severely crippled the Beast Tamers' power.

From that point on, the history of the two worlds moved in entirely different directions.

On Blue Star, the art of beast taming merged with scientific advancement, leading to the early study and implementation of alien beast evolution. However, before the arrival of the Ghost Energy Stone, the Divine Martial World was essentially a primitive society. The early Beast Tamers lacked the necessary foundations and remained ignorant of how to evolve lower-tier species into higher-tier forms.

Consequently, once the Alien Beast Ban took effect, the new generation of Beast Tamers was utterly devastated...
