Chapter 001: God-Level Start, Eldest Young Master of the Bai Family
In the Medium-sized Secret Realm known as the Myriad Spider Nest.
There stood one of the seven large central city bases, the main city known as Bailin City.
A luxurious and exquisite villa sat located in the central area of Bailin City. Behind the villa was a small hill, and at the foot of the hill lay a clear lake. The morning sunlight scattered across the lake's surface, shimmering as many spiritual fish seemed to swim within.
However, around this hill and lake, aside from this one villa, there were no other buildings. This was because the hill and the lake were both part of the villa's backyard.
This was an inconceivable luxury.
In the entire Myriad Spider Nest Secret Realm, there were only seven large central city bases, which served as the foundation for the human race within this realm. As one of them, land in Bailin City was worth its weight in gold. Yet, in the core area of Bailin City, there was actually such a residence; it was something outsiders could hardly imagine.
It could be said that anyone capable of owning such a residence must belong to a powerful and wealthy family.
And in fact, this was true. This villa was the City Lord's Mansion.
At this moment, in a room on the second floor of the villa, a young boy of about fourteen or fifteen was washing up. Looking up, the mirror reflected a pale-skinned, incredibly handsome face that resembled a noble young master.
"Although I've looked at it for fifteen years, I have to say, my appearance in this life is almost unfairly handsome."
Zane Bai sighed with emotion in his heart, feeling somewhat helpless.
Yes, he was not a native resident of this world, but a transmigrator.
In his previous life, he was a soldier who sacrificed himself during a mission. Unexpectedly, he traveled to the Beast Taming World.
Indeed, the world Zane was now in was the Beast Taming World. Here, there were all kinds of magical spirit beasts and countless Beast Tamers.
However, his situation was more like reincarnation than possessing a body. He was born from his mother's womb and grew up naturally. It could be said that there was no difference between Zane and the native residents of this world. The only difference was that he possessed memories of his previous life.
Could it be that he forgot to drink the soup of forgetfulness on the road to reincarnation? He wasn't sure. But because he was a rugged soldier in his previous life, turning into a "pretty boy" with top-tier looks in this life made Zane somewhat uncomfortable.
Splash~
The sound of gurgling water came from a distance.
At the same time, a figure with a long body, resembling a silver ribbon, floated in mid-air and arrived in front of Zane. It was a spirit fish. The fish was slender, nearly three meters long. A pair of red fish eyes emitted a faint golden light, and there were silver stripes on its body, making it look extraordinary.
Currently, there was a flowing current beneath the spirit fish, allowing it to float in the air as if swimming in water.
"Yin yin~~"
*Zane, time for breakfast~~*
"I know, Red-Eyed Silver-Patterned Fish. Tell Father I'll be down as soon as I finish washing up."
Zane smiled faintly.
Although the spirit fish did not speak a human language, Zane seemed to understand its words and spoke to the spirit fish in front of him.
This miraculous spirit fish was his father's contract soul pet, the Red-Eyed Silver-Patterned Fish. Although it was not particularly massive, it was a Gold-rank pet beast and a powerhouse in its own right.
After washing up, Zane went to the dining room on the first floor.
The servants had prepared breakfast, and the fragrant meal was laid out on the table. Beside the table, a middle-aged couple and a girl around ten years old were eating breakfast, looking very harmonious. These were Zane's parents and younger sister.
At the same time, Zane noticed a dignified old man sitting at the head of the table. The old man had white hair but a youthful face, appearing about fifty or sixty years old. Of course, that was only his appearance. Those who knew the old man well knew that his age far exceeded that number, as he had governed this city for fifty years.
At this moment, the old man looked serious, clearly someone of high status who held the power of life and death.
"Grandfather, when did you return? Are you not busy with work?"
Seeing the dignified old man, a smile immediately appeared on Zane's face as he walked directly to the old man's side.
This was Zane's grandfather, Elder Bai.
He was the famous City Lord of Bailin City and one of the seven strongest individuals in the Myriad Spider Nest Secret Realm. A Diamond-rank Beast Tamer who had guarded Bailin City for fifty years.
In the entirety of Bailin City, Elder Bai was the strongest existence, standing on equal footing with the City Lords of the other six main cities.
It could be said that Zane's start in this life was a "God-level" start, possessing a formidable background. To be honest, as a transmigrator, Zane not only had an astonishing background belonging to a wealthy and powerful family, but he even had a harmonious family. Not only were his parents alive, but his grandfather was one of the strongest people in this world.
Such a start was simply unimaginable.
Zane had to suspect whether he was actually the protagonist. Could a protagonist really possess such a powerful background and a happy family? Usually, protagonists started with nothing.
Zane had always wondered about this.
However, as the City Lord, Elder Bai was usually very busy and rarely returned to the mansion. Therefore, Zane was slightly surprised by his grandfather's return.
"Today is the annual Awakening Ceremony. As the City Lord, I need to be present to give a speech and encourage the students."
"Grandfather remembers that you should be a middle school graduate this year and need to participate in the Awakening Ceremony, right?"
"It just so happens that we can go to the Awakening Hall together later."
Seeing his grandson, a smile finally appeared on Elder Bai's serious face.
The Awakening Ceremony was fully named the [Federation Annual Beast Taming Talent Awakening Ceremony].
Every year during the high school entrance exams, the state presided over the Awakening Ceremony to help middle school graduates awaken. If the awakening was successful, they could apply for a Beast Taming High School and learn various knowledge related to beast taming. If the awakening failed, they could only attend a regular high school.
It could be said that this was an important moment that determined one's life.
However, Zane looked very calm.
This was because he had independently awakened his Beast Taming Talent a month ago.
This was an inevitability.
Although independently awakening a Beast Taming Talent was a very difficult matter, as the blood descendant of the Diamond Beast Tamer Elder Bai, Zane possessed a powerful bloodline. Awakening a talent was not particularly difficult for him.
Therefore, before the Awakening Ceremony had even begun, Zane had already awakened on his own.
As for the Beast Taming Talent Zane awakened, it was a very good one.
It was the A-rank Talent: [Intuition].
