These students, who were all quite shrewd, naturally saw Bai Zian as the leader among them, given his status as the grandson of Bai Jingchong, the city lord.

As Bai Zian arrived, his classmates instinctively gravitated toward him, eagerly greeting him and forming a small circle around him. Bai Zian simply smiled and nodded in response.

The reason Bai Zian hadn’t been to school for the past month didn’t need much explanation.

Having independently awakened his beast-taming talent, he needed time to familiarize himself with it, so he chose not to attend school.

“Brother An, you’re finally here! I’ve missed you so much over the past month!”

As Bai Zian exchanged greetings with his classmates, a chubby figure, like a rolling ball, pushed through the crowd and appeared in front of him with a face full of longing.

“Fatty Yuan, can you not speak to me in such a wistful tone? People who don’t know might think there’s something going on between us,” Bai Zian said helplessly.

This was Bai Zian’s number one follower, who, because of their parents’ connections, had grown up alongside Bai Zian and shared a strong bond with him.

His name, Yuan Potian, was as imposing as it was misleading—Bai Zian had once thought he was the protagonist of some novel.

But as time went on and Fatty Yuan’s physique became increasingly round and Bai Zian gave up on that notion.

After all, how could a protagonist be as round as a basketball? Handsome protagonists like himself were a different story altogether.

“Bai Zian, you haven’t been to school for a month. I thought you might be scared. If you admit defeat now, I might consider letting you off the hook and dropping our bet,” a cold female voice suddenly interrupted.

A tall, striking girl with long red hair, surrounded by a group of students, approached Bai Zian with an arrogant expression.

“Don’t worry, Little Phoenix, the bet still stands. I’m really looking forward to seeing you cry when you lose,” Bai Zian said with a calm smile, a hint of amusement in his eyes as he looked at Feng Qianyu.

Daring to act so haughty in front of Bai Zian, Feng Qianyu was no ordinary person. As the granddaughter of Feng Yangyan, the deputy city lord of Bai Lin City, she was considered a top-tier figure among the privileged students.

However, during their time in school, she was often overshadowed by Bai Zian, a fact she couldn’t reconcile with.

Thus, she seized the opportunity presented by the awakening ceremony to challenge Bai Zian, resulting in the bet they made.

The bet was simple: they would compare who could awaken the better talent, with the loser having to fulfill a request from the winner.

They weren’t concerned about whether they would awaken a beast-taming talent—it was almost a certainty given their families’ statuses as powerful beast tamers. Bai Zian wasn’t particularly worried either, having already awakened an A-level talent on his own. He was confident he had a 90% chance of winning the bet.

After all, S-level talents were rare even in the entire Jiuzhou Federation, and the odds of encountering one were slim, especially in their current location, which was just one of the many secret worlds under the Jiuzhou Federation’s control.

“Damn you, Bai Zian! Don’t call me little phoenix! And be ready to lose—I’m looking forward to seeing you grovel before me,” Feng Qianyu declared, her expression smug as if she was sure of her victory. She then turned and left with her group of followers.

“Brother An, be careful. I heard from my father that the Feng family recently obtained a special treasure that might help with awakening talents. That’s why Feng Qianyu is so confident,” Yuan Fatty whispered, sharing some insider information.

“The Feng family has a mysterious background and deep resources. It’s not surprising they have some special tricks up their sleeves. No worries,” Bai Zian replied with a serene smile, unbothered by the news.

He had a feeling—thanks to his [Intuition] talent—that Feng Qianyu wouldn’t pose much of a threat.

“Students from various schools, welcome! I am Bai Jingchong, the city lord of Bai Lin City. The awakening ceremony marks the beginning of a new chapter in your lives…”

At the same time, an elder with a youthful appearance, full of vigor, appeared on the high platform in the Awakening Hall. It was none other than Bai Jingchong, Bai Zian’s grandfather, who was giving a speech to encourage the students.

The atmosphere in the plaza grew even more lively as the students respectfully listened to the powerful figure who protected them. Bai Zian remained calm, having seen such scenes countless times.

Soon after, Bai Jingchong finished his speech, and the awakening ceremony officially began.

This day, the divine power of the Awakening Stone would envelop the entire Awakening Hall. Students would enter the hall in batches according to their exam numbers, and with the help of the Awakening Stone, they would awaken their beast-taming talents.

It wasn’t long before it was Bai Zian’s school’s turn. He and his classmates, led by the staff, entered the Awakening Hall—a spacious chamber with a thousand seats, allowing a thousand students to awaken simultaneously.

Above the hall floated a mysterious, seven-colored stone projection, exuding a pale cyan light that enveloped the entire hall. This was the spatial projection of the Awakening Stone, radiating its awakening energy.

Without wasting time, Bai Zian found his seat, sat cross-legged, and began absorbing the awakening energy to construct his beast space.

However, at that moment, something unusual started happening to Bai Zian.
