nThe moment the students heard the words ‘cultivation technique’…

nThey immediately burst into an uproar.

nEveryone could not help but get excited.

nAs Beastmasters, they knew the importance of cultivation techniques.

nHowever, there were many cultivation techniques in this world. There were ordinary cultivation techniques, and there were heaven-defying cultivation techniques as well.

nHowever, powerful cultivation techniques could only be cultivated by geniuses.

nThat was because powerful cultivation techniques not only required great talent, but also strong willpower.

nAlthough there were many cultivation techniques circulating in the market right now…

nAlmost all of them were very ordinary cultivation techniques.

nFor students who claimed to be geniuses, these ordinary cultivation techniques were completely unable to satisfy them.

nHowever, the Federation’s Advanced Beastmaster Academy was different. As the top Beastmaster Academy in the entire federation…

nThe number of cultivation techniques they possessed, and the strength of their cultivation techniques, could not be compared to any other institute’s.

nThere were some cultivation techniques that only the Federation’s Advanced Beastmaster Academy possessed.

nMoreover, they were under very strict control.

nOther than a select few geniuses, no one else could come into contact with them at all.

nMoreover, their possession of unique yet easily cultivable techniques had also prevented them from toppling back when the institution was facing financial difficulties.

nThe Federation’s Advanced Beastmaster Academy possessed cultivation techniques that were suitable for all sorts of people to learn.

nThe barrier of entry to these techniques were low, but their might was very powerful once mastered.

nAlmost every Beastmaster Academy practiced these cultivation techniques.

nIt was for this reason that many people had racked their brains to enter the Federation’s Advanced Beastmaster Academy.

n“Then, what are the requirements for us to obtain the cultivation techniques?”

nSuddenly, a tall female student below the stage asked.

nHearing the female student’s question, the students below the stage also echoed her question.

n“Of course, there’s no such thing as free lunch in this world.”

n“It is obviously impossible to obtain the cultivation method for free.”

nTrista said slowly.

n“What conditions do we need to clear in order to obtain the cultivation method?”

nOne of the impatient students under the stage could not take Trista’s dragged out explanation.

nIt was clear that the student was rather hot-headed.

nHe was not the type to tolerate long-winded explanations.

nTrista had no intention to chastise the student. Instead, she continued with her explanation just like before, but with a smile on her face.

n“There are two ways to obtain cultivation techniques.”

n“The first way is if you were a new student and you managed to enter the top 100 during the first test.”

n“The second way is much simpler. The students have to rent the cultivation techniques themselves.”

n“It means that you have to spend money in exchange for the opportunity to learn the cultivation techniques.”

nHearing this, the students below the stage began to discuss among themselves.

nThe venue instantly became noisy.

nJacques, who was standing at the side, was unable to tolerate the ruckus any longer. He berated loudly, “Enough! Everyone, quiet down.”

n“Those are things that you will consider only after you’ve been admitted to the Federation’s Beastmaster Academy.”

n“Your current task is to obtain good results in this assessment and then enter the Federation’s Advanced Beastmaster Academy. Only then will you have the right to come into contact with everything there.”

n“Otherwise, you guys are just counting your chickens before they hatch.”

nJacques had dampened the mood on the eager students.

nHowever, they also realized that they had gone a little overboard.

nAfter all, it was still uncertain whether they would make it into the academy or not.

nIn an instant, the audience quieted down.

n“Time’s up.”

n“The combat assessment is up next.”

n“This is the most important assessment out of all, so you must obtain outstanding results in this exam. Only then can you enter the academy and receive more resources. So, work hard, students.”

nNoticing the students had calmed down, Jacques checked his watch and announced the next assessment.

n“Your combat assessment will not take place here, instead it will be at the Federation’s Comprehensive Training Center.”

n“We have already prepared the transportation for you, and they have just arrived.”

n“Alright, students, follow my lead.”

nTrista resumed where Jacques left off.

nWith that, Trista then headed to the vehicles at the school gate.

nThe students below the stage followed Trista’s footsteps.

nLocke was among them.

nSuddenly…

nLocke felt a chill on his back.

nHe turned around and saw Alice glaring fiercely at him.

nThis made Locke very puzzled. ‘Why is this woman so narrow-minded?’

nHe had never offended her, but she was constantly targeting him.

n‘I must teach her a lesson, to let her realize the evils of society.’

nA despicable idea suddenly appeared in Locke’s mind.

n‘This woman is clearly a big-breasted idiot.’

nAs for Alice’s perspective on why she hated Locke…

nIt was because she thought that Locke had stolen her spotlight, and Locke was surrounded by a large number of classmates who she was on good terms with.

nThey were constantly praising Locke, when she should be the one on the receiving end of the praises instead.

nAll of her praise had been stolen by Locke who appeared out of nowhere.

nAlice, who grew up in a large family, had always been the object of admiration for others.

nNo one had ever dared to treat her so coldly. As such, was it no wonder that she got mad?

nOn the other hand, Locke cared little of what she thought. Rather, he had no intention to deal with the brainless woman.

nHe had learned back in his original world that women were the most dangerous lifeforms to exist.

nWhile conversing with the surrounding students, a bus drove over, and it had the logo of the Federation’s Comprehensive Training Center on it.

nObviously, the bus was there to pick them up.

nTrista organized the students to get on the bus.

nAfter two rounds of assessment, there were not many students left.

nHalf of the seats on the bus were still empty.

nSome students on the bus chatted and laughed along the way, whereas some of them were in a very low mood.

nThey had no clue how they would perform in actual combat.

nAfter all, they were just a bunch of high school students, and they always worried about gains and losses.

nVery soon…

nThe bus arrived at its destination amidst the laughter and discussion of the students.

nEveryone quickly got off the bus.

nLooking at the grandeur of the Federation’s Comprehensive Training Center, some students’ faces were calm, whereas some students’ faces were filled with shock.

nAfter all, there was also a wealth gap among the students.

nTraining in the Federation’s Comprehensive Training Center required money.

nTo those from normal families, training here once would amount to half a year’s worth of salary.

nAs a result, many students had never come here before, and those students who looked calm on the surface were obviously people from powerful families or wealthy families.

nAfter all, the Federation’s Comprehensive Training Center was a huge boon to a Beastmaster’s growth.

nFor this reason, many members of large families liked to come here to train.

nIt had all the necessary conditions for a Beastmaster to grow.

nFor example, it contained actual combat training, mana training, and physical fitness training. It truly was a comprehensive training center.
