He chose to accept it.
Conveniently, Su'er was missing a Space Ring.
...
"Plop."
Lin Su leaned in with interest towards a Bright Light Group that had reached the elite stage, poking its soft body with his finger, listening to the faint "plop" sounds, a smile spreading across his face.
He had originally thought this beautiful garden, filled with various pets and unknown flowers, was crafted by the Lin Family. However, after Azura brought over medicine for him to drink, Lin Su casually brought up this matter and the answer he received surprised him.
Everything in this garden had been his former self's doing.
Including various low-level but exceedingly charming pets.
It seemed that his former self really did love pets, which explained why there were conflicts over the Beast Taming lineage with his father more than once.
Experiencing everything in this mythical martial world, Lin Su still found it incredibly unbelievable.
In Blue Star, with the emergence of the Alien Beast Ban, every Beast Tamer could only contract alien beast species that were of strategic importance, even species like the Bright Light Group that practically required no breeding costs and had no potential for evolution were prohibited from private trading.
In this world, not only could pets be bought and sold freely, but also, due to the absence of the Alien Beast Ban, pets of lower species ranks were rarely contracted and were just kept as pets...
It really was a case of... some dying from drought and others from flood...
With a wry smile, Lin Su held down a Lightning Fox that had been rubbing against him for a while.
This fox-like pet, covered in dazzling golden fur and with lightning patterns on its face and body...
A low-rank leading species, with high charisma and excellent clinginess, would have had people on Blue Star fighting over it.
Lin Su interacted enthusiastically with every pet he had only seen in textbooks, completely unaware of the figure that stood motionless at the entrance of the garden, watching all his actions with a complex expression.
Even with amnesia, did Su'er still love these pets so much?
Lin Zhen Nan touched the Space Ring in his pocket, his face showing a relieved smile.
Forget it, let the children and grandchildren have their own blessings, perhaps letting Su'er become a Beast Tamer would make him happier.
With that thought, he stepped towards Lin Su.
Noticing the noise, Lin Su looked up and hurriedly stood up, "Father."
The pets that had been swarming around Lin Su seemed somewhat afraid of Lin Zhen Nan, scattering and curiously watching from a distance.
Noticing this scene, Lin Zhen Nan sighed softly in his heart.
He had scolded Lin Su many times in this garden for indulging in frivolities, these pets weren't lacking in intelligence, and now they all feared him.
"Feeling better?" he said, looking at Lin Su.
The cultivation of martial arts enabled him to clearly sense that his son's life aura was not far from full recovery.
"It's almost completely better. I just took some medicine, and another sleep should see me fully recovered," Lin Su responded with a smile. The medicine he had just taken was already working inside his body, but this time he wasn't as overwhelmingly drowsy as before.
"That's good. Have you thought about what sort of pet you want to contract?" Lin Zhen Nan nodded, "Our family can afford a Monarch-class species, you can choose the ones that can evolve into Emperor-class species. That way, the potential for future advancement is higher. As for the resources needed for evolving into an Emperor-class species..."
Lin Zhen Nan paused slightly, gritting his teeth, "We'll find a way eventually."
We can afford a Monarch-class species, choose one that can evolve into an Emperor-class.
Raised on Blue Star, Lin Su silently listened.
But he hadn't formed any concrete ideas yet, so after a moment of silence, he could only shake his head, "Not yet."
Lin Zhen Nan seemed to misunderstand something, a knowing smile appearing on his face, "Su'er, you've lost your memory, perhaps your memory about pets has also vanished. I've found some materials a Beast Tamer needs for you. You can take a look at them first, get to know more before making a choice."
Speaking, he took out that ring from his chest and handed it to Lin Su.
Lin Su was struck by a thought.
Although his father had misunderstood, he indeed needed some data about Beast Tamers in this world. It turned out to be a fortunate misunderstanding.
But... what about this ring?
Having perceived that Lin Su was unfamiliar with the Space Ring, Lin Zhen Nan spoke up to introduce it, "This is a Space Ring, crafted with the aid of a Spatial Beast under special spatial resources. It can be used for storage. Martial artists open it with their vital energy, while Beast Tamers control it using the Beast Taming Space. Why don't you give it a try?"
There was such a thing?
Lin Su was astounded; in Blue Star, he had never heard of anything similar.
Almost instantly, he developed a deep interest in the ring before him, cautiously making mental contact with the ring that was inlaid with a black gemstone.
A strand of power spilled out from the Beast Taming Space, connecting with the Space Ring in his hand, and almost instantly, Lin Su was able to sense the interior of the Space Ring.
It was a small space of about ten cubic meters, containing only thick files that were exactly the Beast Tamer-related materials Lin Zhen Nan had mentioned.
With a thought, Lin Su willed one of the files to fly out of the Space Ring and appear in his hand.
Following another thought, the file returned to the Space Ring.
Seeing Lin Su's attachment to the Space Ring, a smile spread across Lin Zhen Nan's face, "Alright, your father has other matters to attend to, so I must be off. Make sure to rest."
"Thank you, father," Lin Su returned to his senses, shifting his attention from the ring to his father.
According to Azura's description earlier, the original host had quite a few conflicts with his father, primarily because the original host wanted to become a Beast Tamer, while his father wanted him to follow in his footsteps and become a martial arts warrior.
But now, his father was no longer insisting that he become a martial arts warrior, and had even brought him materials related to Beast Tamers to show his support. He had been unconscious for barely a day, and gathering all these materials so quickly was no small feat.
And then there was the Space Ring. Though not entirely sure of its value in this world, it required the power of a Spatial Beast, which, to his knowledge, likely belonged to imperial species, clearly indicating it was no trivial matter.
All of his father's actions made Lin Su, who had lost his father at a young age, feel a long-missed fatherly love.
Therefore, this thank you to his father came without any burden on his conscience.
Since he was going to continue traveling through other worlds, he decided to truly consider the parents in this world as his own.
He silently told himself this in his heart.
Lin Zhen Nan waved his hand and walked out of the garden with a casual air.
In a place out of Lin Su's sight, a radiant smile had unknowingly spread across Lin Zhen Nan's face.
Son saying "thank you, father" brought joy!
...
As his father left, the beasts in the garden once again crowded around Lin Su. Overwhelmed with curiosity about the materials he had acquired, he eagerly took out the one detailing the various beast species, sat down cross-legged, and began flipping through the material, with the beasts quietly keeping company nearby.
Before he could travel to the world of Shen Wu again, his thought was to contract a high-rank species beast in Shen Wu world that couldn't be contracted on Blue Star and, after bringing it back, applying to Beast Tamer University would no longer be a concern.
But having truly traveled here, and after feeling the differences between the two worlds, Lin Su realized how naive his initial thoughts were.
In Blue Star, every Beast Tamer, upon moving from novice to official certification, must register their initial beast to prove a successful contract.
Thereafter, when certifying for higher ranks like Elite Beast Tamer, Master Beast Tamer, and Hall Beast Master, this step isn't necessary; only one beast achieving the corresponding growth stage is required for successful certification.
This means that every Beast Tamer's initial beast is transparent and public, while subsequent beasts may remain undisclosed.
If he really were to contract a beast restricted under the Alien Beast Ban as his initial beast, he would instantly become a target.
Not being dissected for study would be a best-case scenario.
Unless he exposed his ability to travel between two worlds.
But that was something he could not do.
Therefore, his subsequent beasts could be high-rank species from the world of Shen Wu, so long as he managed not to expose them too often.
However, Lin Su's first beast had to be one that could also be contracted on Blue Star.
All he could do now was pray that Xue Henqing had an evolvable type in this world.
That way, he could directly contract Qiuqiu without having to worry about any other issues.
Thinking this, Lin Su quickly flipped through the index to find the section on Xue Henqing and began to read.
After a long moment, he spoke emotionlessly.
"Fuck."
