Sitting at the bedside, Chen Heng pondered alone.
He could obtain rewards through the examination through his hard work, which is a clear and feasible path.
As the best academy in this area, Dragon City Academy’s rewards for outstanding students were also very generous.
It has all kinds of precious treasures, money, and so on, which were also wholly indispensable.
If Chen Heng could obtain outstanding results in various examinations, not only would he be able to get benefits and receive rewards from the academy, he would also be able to use these opportunities to make a name for himself.
After that, it would be easier for him whether he wanted to find funding or do something else.
At the moment, this seemed to be the only path he could take.
After all, anything related to the Imperial Beast was a sky-high price with his family background.
To walk to the end was a long and arduous process. He would probably have to sell his body if he was just an ordinary person.
To Chen Heng, the pressure wasn’t that great.
“To a certain extent, divine power seems to be able to nourish one’s spiritual power…”
Chen Heng felt the conditions of his body, and then this thought flashed through his mind.
At this moment, he could feel the changes in his body.
As the true spirit entered this body, the power slowly changed, transformed by the true spirit.
And the existence of divine power seemed to have an excellent effect on the telekinesis power of the Beastmaster. To a certain extent, it was wonderful news.
At this moment, Chen Heng could feel that the seed in his body was slowly becoming stronger as time passed. The power within it gradually grew, slowly increasing, which was good news for him.
According to the understanding of this world, a Beastmaster could control an Imperial Beast because there was a telekinesis seed in his body.
The existence of a telekinesis seed could only be possessed by a person who had the talent of a Beastmaster.
If one didn’t have the talent of a Beastmaster and was merely an ordinary person, then they were destined to miss the Beastmaster and could only practice martial arts.
The seed that Chen Heng felt was the telekinesis seed in his body if nothing went wrong.
And at this moment, under the stimulation and nourishment of the divine power, this telekinesis seed was thriving and growing slowly.
At this moment, it had gradually reached a new level.
“It seems that I can only rely on passive growth?”

According to the memories of his predecessor, it seemed that in this world, the growth of telekinesis power in the bodies of the Beastmaster depended on natural growth, or supplementing it with all kinds of precious things.
In Dragon City Academy, there were all kinds of medicine and telekinesis crystals specially used to nourish and stimulate the growth of telekinesis power.
In addition, if one obtained the Academy’s reward and could enter the secret realm, it would also be very beneficial to the growth of telekinesis power.
Under normal circumstances, this was the most effective way to increase telekinesis power.
As for practicing methods, it didn’t seem to exist, based on the situation Chen Heng knew.
Of course, it probably existed. However, Chen Heng still couldn’t reach that level.
Under such circumstances, if Chen Heng wanted to increase his spiritual power, it seemed that he could only rely on the nourishment by the divine power, as well as his passive growth.
“The nourishment of divine power can allow me to have a more outstanding ability, a stronger telekinesis power than others…”
Chen Heng raised his head and looked at the outside world. At this moment, various thoughts flashed through his mind. “However, the most important thing right now is to find an Imperial Beast…”
Beastmasters were famous for their Imperial Beasts.
Only by having their Imperial Beasts could a Beastmaster truly display their strength.
To Chen Heng, the most important thing right now was to have an Imperial Beast that belonged to him. Having an Imperial Beast was best done as soon as possible.
However, a cub that could truly be considered an Imperial Beast was extremely precious in this world.
One often needed to meet more stringent conditions to obtain them, which there were usually only a few ways, based on Chen Heng’s current knowledge.
The first way was to graduate. Dragon City Academy would issue a special cub for one to rear when the time came.
In return, one had to sign an agreement with the academy and complete the tasks issued by the academy or other units.
Alternatively, one could seek funding from others by demonstrating one’s potential to amaze others, for others to offer the cubs. But similar to the first method, there would also be a huge price to pay.
The third method would be to perform well enough in some critical examinations and competitions to get the rewards, which would often be some outstanding cubs considered Imperial Beasts.
These were the few main ways to obtain an Imperial Beast.
Of course, there were other ways. However, the probability was too small, so Chen Heng wasn’t prepared to consider them.
Only three paths could be taken, considering the current situation, and Chen Heng was prepared to take a look at all three.

With these considerations in mind, his current goal was obvious.
“I’ll think of a way to stand out in this monthly exam first…”
Silently, Chen Heng stood up, turned around, and looked at the bedside. Various thoughts flashed through his mind as he looked at the scenery outside.
“Otherwise, if I keep being invisible, no one will take me seriously.”
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and then he strode out of his room.
Lu Yao was still busy packing up her things diligently outside of the room. Chen Heng glanced at her and ignored her as he was ready to leave.
However, after taking a few steps, he stopped and looked behind him, confused.
In Chen Heng’s sight, Lu Yao was still busy, and her face was already covered in sweat. The entire scene looked very typical.
“Did I feel wrong?”
Chen Heng frowned. This thought flashed through his mind, looking at Lu Yao behind him. A moment later, he shook his head and left.
Time passed slowly.
After a few days, Chen Heng left his home and returned to the academy.
The academy was still the same as before, as Chen Heng remembered.
However, this place was more lively and prosperous than other places. It looked as if it was at the center of the world, which of course, was the case.
As he walked through this campus, Chen Heng’s expression was calm. Around him, pedestrians continuously walked past him, and all seemed to be in a hurry.
In front of him, a few figures passed by. Then, a young girl walked in front of Chen Heng.
“Hello…”
She walked up to Chen Heng and glanced at him. Looking at his expression, she seemed to be a little afraid. “This is the registration list for the Academy’s Entertainment competition. Are you interested?”
Chen Heng’s footsteps paused, then he looked at her.
Under Chen Heng’s gaze, the young lady in front of him seemed a little nervous. She was holding a large bundle of flyers in her hands. From the looks of it, she was probably doing a part-time job.
“Let me take a look.”
Chen Heng looked at the girl before him. His expression was calm as he spoke casually, and he took a flyer and glanced through the straightforward contents.
It seemed like a few well-known companies were holding a competition in the academy. They had specially taken out a generous sum of money to reward those who performed well in the competition, which was very common in the academy.
After all, this was the core of this area, and there were many future Beastmasters here.
Many companies wanted to find some good seedlings here and, at the same time, leave a deep impression in the hearts of the future Beastmasters, to even cooperate or even recruit them in the end.
Therefore, competitions like this were quite common here.
However, the scale of this competition seemed to be larger, and the rewards were more generous.
Chen Heng took a look and noticed that the registration fee was free. Anyone could receive a generous prize as long as they were willing to participate. If one were selected as the top ten, they would receive at least a 500,000 yuan bonus.
The rewards for the top three were even more generous. Looking at the prizes, Chen Heng nodded in satisfaction.
In this world, the cubs were highly precious. It was just a competition, so it was naturally impossible to give such a precious item as a reward.
But even so, it wasn’t bad. Chen Heng was short of money to a certain extent.
His predecessor wasn’t wealthy, to begin with. To cope with the enormous expenses needed for the rearing of an Imperial Beast, he basically couldn’t make ends meet.
The 500,000 yuan from before was the reward he had just received for his predecessor’s outstanding performance.
Chen Heng’s pockets were now empty after giving the money to his family, and he basically couldn’t afford to think about buying anything.
The competition this time came at the right time. He could take it as getting some living expenses.
At the same time, he could also look at the people’s standards in this academy.
Then, he looked at the young girl in front of him and said indifferently, “Where do I register?”
“Are you looking to register?”
The young girl suddenly became a little excited, hearing Chen Heng’s words. At this moment, she hurriedly said, “Just leave your identity information here.”
She looked a little excited and hurriedly handed over form in her hand to Chen Heng.
There were some basic information columns on the form, and there wasn’t much to declare, generally just name, class, teacher, identity, etc.
Chen Heng looked at the form casually and noticed that not many people had filled in their names, mostly martial artists.
‘There wasn’t a single Beastmaster. It seemed that Beastmasters were rare, even in this academy.’
Chen Heng’s expression was calm as this thought flashed through his mind. Then, he casually filled out the form and left.
After Chen Heng left, the young lady secretly heaved a sigh of relief. From the looks of it, the pressure she felt just now was tremendous when Chen Heng was by her side.
After Chen Heng was quite a distance away, she curiously looked at the information on the form and couldn’t help but widen her eyes.
“He’s actually… a Lord Beastmaster…”
Looking at the information, she couldn’t help but reveal an excited expression. “A Lord Beastmaster is also participating in the competition…”
“I’ll be able to get a lot of commission with this…”
She was a little excited, and this thought flashed through her mind.
A few people passed by this moment, and instantly, her eyes lit up, and she walked over.
On the other side, Chen Heng continued walking in the spacious academy, but it was very unfamiliar in Chen Heng’s impression.
Logically speaking, this shouldn’t be the case.
After all, even if Chen Heng had traversed here, his predecessor was still a student of this academy, so he shouldn’t feel unfamiliar with the academy.
But in reality, that was indeed the case.
The academy before him was too huge. Though it was just an academy, its scope was larger than in some cities.
It would be quite challenging to familiarize himself with looking at such a huge area.
Furthermore, the personality of his predecessor was also relatively solitary, so naturally, he wasn’t familiar with many parts of this academy.
As Chen Heng walked around the academy, he felt a sense of strangeness. But fortunately, he didn’t think much of it.
After going through so many things and simulations, Chen Heng was at his peak in terms of adaptability.
After walking around the academy for a while, Chen Heng finally left, returning to his residence.
The academy arranged his residence, and it was very spacious and luxurious at a glance. Strictly speaking, its conditions were even better than his own home.
All kinds of appliances in the surroundings were complete and were all the latest models.
Every day, there were even designated maids and robots to clean up the place. With such excellent conditions, no wonder his predecessor didn’t want to go home after coming here.
Of course, to Chen Heng, these things were external.
After returning to his room and letting go of some of the things on his body, he left the area and walked to the side.

Soon, he arrived at a spacious place.
“Welcome back, User…”
“Can I do a simulation?”
When he arrived at the spacious room in front of him, a voice sounded.. It was the voice of a machine, which sounded very stiff.
