Potential could be understood as the standard strength that extraordinary creatures could achieve through natural growth.
Due to their different personalities and the environment they grew up in, their final strength might be a little higher or a little lower. However, they would usually linger around this standard strength and would not be much different.
If it could increase its potential, it would be amazing.
This meant that a pet with ordinary potential could grow to elite, commander, or even higher levels!
The higher the potential of the pet, the rarer it was, and the harder it was for ordinary people to obtain it.
Especially a poor student like Su Yi. In the past, unless he was extremely lucky, it would be very difficult for him to obtain an elite-level pet.
Now, however, that didn't seem to be a problem anymore.
"Is this how you help me get an excellent pet?"
Su Yi guessed.
Suppressing his excitement, he returned to the classroom.
Seeing that he was distracted and seemed to have suffered a huge blow, many students in the class looked at him with concern.
"Brother, don't be too sad. Your theoretical test results are so good. Even if you get expelled from this school, you can still transfer to another high school. In the future, you can get into a famous university and do scientific research. You'll still be a pillar of the country. If you really can't make a living, you can come to me. When I become an elite Beast Tamer in the future, I'll definitely protect you!"
His deskmate, Li Xinhao, put an arm warmly around his shoulder.
"I'm sad? The hell I am!"
Su Yi was amused and pushed Li Xinhao's hand away.
He was going to die of joy now. How could he be sad?
"Ah, don't force yourself. If you're sad, just say it. You'll feel better. What's our relationship? There's no need to pretend. I won't laugh at you."
Li Xinhao clearly did not believe him. He was still comforting his deskmate who was suffering a setback in his life.
"Get lost. You make it sound like I'll definitely be expelled."
Su Yi was getting impatient.
"Fine, I'll shut up knowing you're in a bad mood."
Li Xinhao tactfully stopped bothering him.
The last class in the afternoon was mystic realm class.
It mainly explained the general situation of the various known mystic realms and the precautions needed to enter them.
The Year One mystic realm classes focused on theory. The students were rarely arranged to visit the mystic realms.
In the classroom, the mystic realm teacher with black-rimmed glasses stood on the podium and rambled.
"As everyone knows, the mystic realms that appear on the Blue Planet come from an unknown plane."
"Mystic realms vary in size. The big ones are millions of square kilometers, but the small ones are only a few square meters."
"At present, the largest mystic realm known in the world is the New Continent Mystic Realm located in the Eastern Ocean. Its area is equivalent to two-thirds of our Soaring Dragon Nation, and it is also the only SSS-level mystic realm."
"In the New Continent Mystic Realm, the spiritual energy is abundant, the land is vast, and there are many species. It's said to be filled with natural treasures. As long as you can come out alive, you will definitely gain something."
"However, opportunities and crises coexist. There are many resources and dire beasts inside. It's said that there are several confirmed divine beasts."
"Although various countries have sent a large number of Beast Tamers to explore inside, less than 2% of the area is clearly explored, and it is the periphery."
"That is the largest arena for the various countries. If you can become a powerful Beast Tamer in the future, you must enter it and help our country control more areas and obtain more resources!"
"Of course. If you're too weak, don't go. You won't help the country, and the country will have to spend manpower and resources to save you."
The scene described in the end was so comical that the students were amused.
Su Yi was also listening with relish.
However, he knew very well that although this teacher spoke very easily, the situation in the New Continent Mystic Realm was definitely very tragic.
Not to mention such an SSS-level mystic realm, even the C-level mystic realm in Guancheng had claimed the lives of thousands of people who explored it.
Of course, it was not just the mystic realms. Many places on the Blue Planet were also very dangerous.
For example, the White Pool Mountain Range, the North Ridge Forest, the Sea Desert, the Chaotic Rain Forest, and so on.
The danger level of these places was comparable to mystic realms above S-rank.
In addition, most of the tourist attractions with lush vegetation and beautiful scenery in the past had become restricted areas that humans did not dare to easily enter.
Almost all of these places had been invaded by mutated plants and become a paradise for extraordinary creatures!
All in all, the world was far more dangerous than it seemed.
At dusk.
The sun was setting.
As the bell rang for the end of class, the school's electric gate slowly opened. On it was a slogan that said, "Become a Successful Beast Tamer."
Groups of students stepped out of the campus one after another.
As future Beast Tamers, their faces were filled with confidence and anticipation for the future.
There was no evening self-study in Guancheng First High School. Instead, it was meditation.
Meditation was the most important way to increase mental strength. It was a compulsory course for every Beast Tamer.
According to the school's rules, even freshmen had to meditate for at least four hours a day.
After becoming an official Beast Tamer, they needed to use meditation to replace sleep.
Still, deep meditation did work better than sleep when it came to relieving fatigue and restoring strength.
Meditation required a relatively independent and quiet environment to avoid being disturbed by others, which would make it difficult to enter the state.
As a result, most students would choose to live at home rather than live in the school dormitory, provided conditions allowed.
Su Yi was a day student.
At this moment, he was pushing a seventy percent new bicycle behind the other students as they slowly walked out of the school gate.
"These are all scenes from memory. How nostalgic!"
Looking at the group of students in school uniforms, Su Yi took a breath of fresh air and felt his youth return.
But soon, the memory was separated from reality.
A large bird suddenly flew over everyone's heads and rushed out of the school like lightning, raising a gust of sand.
From the back of the big bird came a peal of irritating laughter.
"It's that idiot from Year Two, Class Three again. It's just a long-winged pheasant. Why are you showing off? Aren't you afraid of falling to your death!"
Many students whose hair was messed up by the sandstorm could not help but curse.
"But this pheasant can fly and carry people. Damn, I want one!"
Some students looked at the big bird with envy.
"Why do you want that? It doesn't have much combat power. It's not even as good as my Digging Rat."
…
"The world is indeed different."
Su Yi glanced at the long-winged pheasant disappearing into the distance and then at his bicycle. His mood suddenly soured.
"The man was sitting on the back of a long-winged pheasant with no protection at all. He could easily have fallen, couldn't he?"
"It's too dangerous. My bike is safer."
