Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future

Shen Fei did not want this talent, so he released his hand.

The green firefly flew into the distance and disappeared into the white fog.

Shen Fei gazed into the distance. There were even more fireflies of various colors floating in the air.

'Other than the talent I'd just obtained, there should be better ones there.'

At the thought of this, Shen Fei turned around and walked towards the white fog.

A small white firefly immediately stopped in front of Shen Fei.

[C-class talent detected: Lightning Speed. Do you wish to upgrade?]

"No." Shen Fei decisively flicked away the white firefly.

As soon as one of them was flicked away, another white firefly impatiently came up to him.

[E-class talent detected: Slight Enhancement. Do you wish to upgrade?]

"No."

Shen Fei immediately flicked away the other white firefly that was approaching him.

'The classes of these talents are too lousy.' Shen Fei fanned away the white fireflies and walked deeper into the fog. 'My second talent should at least be an A-class!'

Shen Fei continued to look forward.

After walking in the white fog for half a day, a dazzling scarlet firefly jumped onto Shen Fei's face. Shen Fei spent a bit of effort to grab this excited firefly from his face.

[A-class talent detected: Hellfire. Do you wish to upgrade?]

[Hellfire: All attacks of the spirit beast will have a layer of ghostfire damage. The longer the ghostfire burns on the enemy, the stronger the effect.]

'This talent is not bad!' Shen Fei's eyes instantly brightened.

He was a fire-attribute Beastmaster to begin with. This A-class talent could be said to be the most suitable for him!

'But...' Shen Fei pinched his chin and pondered. Regardless of the addition of this talent, his spirit beast had a lot of additional fire-attribute damage to begin with.

If he were to add another layer of fire-attribute damage, from a tactical point of view, it would seem a bit too monotonous.

'Maybe, if I look further ahead, there might be better and more suitable choices there.' Shen Fei let go of the red firefly in his hand and continued on.

From afar, Shen Fei could see a dazzling existence among the many different colored fireflies. A firefly that was emitting a colorful luster!

Shen Fei hurriedly walked forward and grabbed the multi-colored firefly in his hand.

Just as he held it in his hand, a loud notification immediately sounded in Shen Fei's mind.

[S-class talent detected: Ability Absorption. Do you wish to upgrade?]

[Ability Absorption: Absorb the talent of others through contact for your own use. By coming into contact with a spirit beast, you can also absorb at least half of the spirit beast's abilities and convert them into your own spirit beast's abilities.]

'It's that powerful?' Shen Fei raised his brows and looked at the multicolored firefly in his hand in disbelief. 'This ability is too overpowering!'

As long as one could come into contact with a spirit beast, or be able to freely use the other party's talent and abilities, no matter how one looked at it, it was unbelievable.

Well, it was still an S-class talent, after all, being this incredible was normal.

Shen Fei firmly grasped the multicolored firefly in his hand, and in an instant, his consciousness returned to the cultivation room.

Looking at the second innate talent that he had just obtained, Shen Fei's heart was filled with joy.

'This talent is really not bad!'

[New S-class talent detected: Ability Absorption. Do you wish to upgrade?]

"Yes!" Shen Fei firmly nodded his head.

'The Ability Absorption effect of S-class talent is already amazing. Wouldn't I be invincible after a slight upgrade?'

[S-class talent, Ability Absorption, has been replaced by SS-class talent, Ability Devourer]

[Ability Devourer: In addition to absorbing the opponent's ability to strengthen your own spirit beast, you can also obtain a temporary talent from each spirit beast that has been killed. This temporary talent can be used a certain number of times, and it will stop after it is used up.]

'This talent is great!' Shen Fei looked at the second talent with joy. 'It would have been better if this talent had come sooner.'

Thinking of the spirit beasts that he had already killed, Shen Fei could not help but lament the missed opportunities. However, based on the frequency at which the young masters of the various families challenged him, he reckoned that this skill would have many uses in the future.

'This talent would be even better if I could use those talents permanently instead of temporarily...'

Perhaps he would be able to gain this function after another upgrade, but that would take at least two more months. Shen Fei moaned inwardly as he glanced at the cooldown date. 'I wish that day would come sooner!'

Just as Shen Fei was immersed in his thoughts, urgent knocking sounds suddenly came from outside the door.

Knock, knock, knock!

"Shen Fei, it's me, the principal. I have something important to discuss with you!"

"Principal, please come in!" Shen Fei quickly walked to the door and opened it for the older man. "What do you want to discuss with me?"

Shen Fei curiously welcomed the principal through the door.

The principal looked at Shen Fei with a serious expression.

"I hope you can help us and be the examiner of our school assessment! As a reward, I'll give you 20% of the preparation funds for this school assessment as your personal reward!"

Shen Fei frowned in hesitation. "I don't think I'm suitable for the job, principal. If I want to be an examiner, it's too early for me."

With his current ability, he was definitely not qualified to be an examiner. Why had the principal come to him for this so suddenly?

"Believe in yourself. This is only a school assessment. Shen Fei, it's fine." The principal patted Shen Fei's shoulder and said to him, "With your ability, you'll definitely be useful in this examination!"

"But I don't have the ability to judge which student is more outstanding."

"You don't need to have that ability!" The principal patted Shen Fei's shoulder again in excitement. "In this school exam, you just have to ensure that the students can survive in the wormhole."

"What?"

'Survive in the wormhole?' Shen Fei frowned in confusion. 'What's going on? How did the school assessment become like this?'

Seeing Shen Fei's puzzled expression, the principal immediately put his arm around Shen Fei's shoulder and explained, "I know you're confused. After all, this year's school assessment are different from usual."

Shen Fei nodded. The school assessments in previous years were usually held in the academy, and students usually formed groups of two to fight against other students.

"But this year's situation is special! You should have heard of what happened near the sea, right? As the wormhole there is expanding, the major academies have discussed and decided to hold the school assessment in the mystic realm outside the wormhole in order to better cultivate the students' abilities!"
