Upon hearing this, Elder Wu looked at him in surprise, then followed his gaze to the female disciple on the stage, as if thinking about something.
"Is this the one who climbed the Holy Mountain before? I remember that she came back empty-handed during the previous mission to collect the Void Spirit Stones."
"Perhaps, something unexpected happened."
"You rarely think highly of someone."
Elder Wu spoke in a leisurely tone, with an interested look in his eyes, "This makes me look forward to the performance of this disciple from Qianji Peak."
Apart from Elder Wu, other Xiaoyao disciples were also paying attention to Xu Chunniang, openly or secretly.
"I'm really curious about how she, a disciple of Qianji Peak, will control the beast later."
"Could it be that she has also learned the art of taming beasts? After all, the main peak has also started courses related to taming beasts, and anyone can attend them."
"But as far as I know, she has only been building her foundation for less than four years. What can she learn in this time?"
Listening to the discussions around him, a dark light flashed in Huangfu Tian's eyes.
In his opinion, Xu Chunniang's move was just a pretense and a way to fish in troubled waters. He didn't believe that she could learn the superb beast taming skills in just three or four years.
In the past, whether it was alchemy, weapon refining or talisman making competitions, the ability requirements were very high, so naturally there would be no one who pretended to know something and did not participate in the competition.
But the way to taming beasts is different. Even if you are not proficient in it, you can still pretend to be good.
Huangfu Tian believed that Xu Chunniang was just trying to gain the favor of her fellow disciples.
After all, as long as she participated, even if she failed to win back points for the sect, she had contributed, and they could not hold on to her previous mistakes.
Xu Chunniang had made careful calculations, but she probably didn't know that the wrong beast-taming technique would not only fail to tame the beasts, but would anger them instead.
According to the regulations, beast tamers are not allowed to attack spirit beasts, let alone harm them.
Huangfu Tian's eyes showed a hint of anticipation for a good show. He was just waiting to see her being chased by the spirit beast and running away in a panic.
By then, her crude trick would be exposed.
At this moment, the competition field was divided into independent spaces by barriers.
In each independent space, a demon beast in the foundation-building stage was placed, and its cultivation levels ranged from the first to the third foundation-building stage.
Among them, there are more than a dozen at the first level of foundation building, and eight or nine at the third level of foundation building. There are all kinds of monsters.
Taking into account that all participating cultivators are newly promoted foundation-building disciples, in order to avoid accidents, no monsters in the middle stage of foundation-building were allowed.
After all, the cultivation level of monsters is much higher than that of beastmasters, so the difficulty and danger of taming monsters will be greatly increased.
The competition lasted for seven days in total, and the top three were determined based on the level of cultivation and number of monsters they had tamed.
After the competition was officially announced to begin, several people immediately took action on the spot and walked towards some monsters with more docile temperaments.
The more docile the monster's temperament is, the easier it will be to tame it.
Guo Yun grew up in the Beast Control Peak and was familiar with all kinds of monsters. So at the beginning of the competition, he chose a two-headed deer at the third level of foundation building.
The two-headed deer is huge and oppressive, and looks very difficult to deal with.
But in fact, as long as you are familiar with its habits, you will know that it is the most friendly one among all the third-level foundation-building monsters present.
As for the other monsters at the third level of foundation building, in order to tame them, either specific conditions are required or more time is needed to cultivate feelings.
Time is limited, and the two-headed deer is the best choice.
Seeing that the two-headed deer had been overtaken by someone, several Miao Dan disciples looked at each other and walked towards the monster at the first level of foundation building at the same time.
Although the achievement of taming one demon beast at the third foundation building level is equivalent to two demon beasts at the second foundation building level, or four demon beasts at the first foundation building level.
It will take more time to tame a monster with a higher level of cultivation, and the chance of taming failure is also very high.
To be on the safe side, it is best to start taming from those with lower cultivation.
For a moment, Xu Chunniang was the only one left on the field without taking any action.
She looked around. She knew most of these monsters and had some idea of their weaknesses and characteristics.
I believe that if we fight, I can easily kill it.
It’s a pity that the content of the assessment is not about fighting and killing.
When she thought about taming these monsters, she felt like she didn't know where to start.
Feeling all kinds of ambiguous gazes coming from all around, Xu Chunniang took a deep breath and gritted her teeth to take Xiaojuzi out of the spirit beast bag.
At the same time, I sent a message to it in my heart, "You said before that the method of taming the beast should be tried!"
Seeing Xu Chunniang releasing a small animal the size of a cat, a Xiaoyao disciple who had been paying attention to her could not help but stare in amazement.
"Why is she releasing a cat instead of taming the beast?"
"What a cute cat. Hmm... the pattern seems to be a little off."
"That's a tiger cub, right? Its cultivation at the third level of foundation building is extraordinary, but what does this have to do with beast control?"
In full view of everyone, the little tiger with orange patterns nodded to Xu Chunniang, then leaped into the barrier that contained the lion-tiger beast.
This lion-tiger beast has the cultivation level of the third level of foundation building. Its body is like that of a lion and a tiger, with both the power of a lion and the agility of a tiger. It has a hot-tempered and aggressive temperament.
They are the most difficult to tame among all the monsters present.
Seeing that Little Orange picked such a big guy, Xu Chunniang couldn't help but feel worried for it.
Little Orange is thin and cute, looking like a weakling, not even strong enough to fill the teeth of the liger.
Even though its cultivation is not inferior to that of the liger, the size difference is so huge that little orange is at a disadvantage no matter how you look at it.
When the Xiaoyao Sect disciples saw this scene, they all frowned and shouted to Xu Chunniang.
"What is Xiaohu doing? He is actively provoking the lion-tiger beast. Is he trying to die? As its owner, how can you just watch it die?"
"Even if the third-level foundation-building cultivation is weak, it is still a great help. It should not be too late to call it back now."
However, after hearing the advice from her fellow disciples, Xu Chunniang on the stage did not act rashly, but instead conveyed a message to Xiaojuzi in her heart.
"Are you sure? If you feel it's dangerous, leave the barrier immediately!"
Little Orange paused and howled at Xu Chunniang behind him.
Don't worry, this big guy is easy to deal with.
Hearing this, Xu Chunniang felt a little relieved and moved closer to the barrier.
If Little Orange is in danger, she will take action immediately and bring it out.
The lion-tiger beast in the barrier was originally lying inside to rest. When it noticed Xiaojuzi coming in, it didn't care and just closed its eyes and pretended to take a nap.
But after hearing the little orange's howling, he was immediately enraged.
It opened its eyes as big as copper bells and stared coldly at the little thing in front of it, its expression full of impatience.
It seemed as if the little orange would be slapped away in the next second.
