Beast Taming Patrol

Chapter 554: Chapter 198: Qingfeng Empire (For Alliance Hierarch Youmeng Xingkong additional chapter 2/2)

“Sister Nan, you wanted to see me?”

Lin Su quickly walked into Qin Nan’s office, a hint of nervousness on his face, “Is something wrong?”

“Don’t be nervous, have a seat first.” Qin Nan waved her hand casually, “Relax, it’s not really a big deal.”

“Okay.” Lin Su let out a small sigh of relief and pulled up a chair to sit down.

When he received Sister Nan’s call, the tone of her voice made Lin Su think something major had happened.

“Your end-of-term exams are coming up, right?” Qin Nan glanced at Lin Su.

“Yes, we’ll have our final exams for each subject in the coming week,” Lin Su nodded, unsure why Qin Nan suddenly brought it up.

“After the final exams, you’ll have winter vacation. Do you have any plans?” Qin Nan asked, propping her chin with her hand and smiling.

“Plans?” Lin Su blinked, “I might just stay at the research institute and continue my research.”

Others might go home and spend time with their families during the holidays, but Lin Su, with no ties on Blue Star, only had his own purchased house to call home.

So, naturally, he planned to stay here for the winter vacation.

“That’s fine.” Qin Nan smiled, “Then you can start preparing for that, it’s going to start in a month.”

As they talked, Qin Nan sent an email to Lin Su through the communicator.

Lin Su blinked and took a glance at his communicator.

“A teaching achievement competition?!”

Surprise appeared on his face.

Lin Su was no stranger to this competition.

Accomplishments in university research can mainly be divided into two categories.

One is breeding accomplishments, and the other is teaching accomplishments.

Breeding accomplishments include the breeding and reproduction of pet beast species, the evolutionary paths of pet beast species, and various research results that help grow pet beasts.

Teaching accomplishments, on the other hand, refer to various teaching skills and other research results in methods and techniques that can be widely used.

To promote new contributions in the research fields from various universities, the Alliance organizes research field competitions every year. The rankings of each university in these competitions will affect their overall rankings, which in turn influences the resource allocation and student recruitment for the next year.

Such competitions also have two categories: the breeding achievements competition and the teaching achievements competition.

Before officially joining Mountain City University, Lin Su had represented the university in the breeding achievements competition with the evolution route of the Indestructible Duck, shocking everyone with the Spirit evolution technique and securing first place in the competition.

Now, five months later, the teaching achievements competition was about to start.

The two competitions were spaced six months apart.

So in one more month, the teaching achievements competition would begin.

Conveniently, one is during the winter vacation, and the other during the summer.

Carefully reviewing the detailed requirements for the competition, Lin Su pinched his chin.

Any research results that had already been used in any competition could not be used again in the teaching achievements competition, so the Spirit evolution technique was out of the question.

But this wasn’t a big problem for Lin Su.

He had plenty of options.

For instance, the teaching skill Ice Palm he’d used previously was a good choice.

Of course, Lin Su had even better options.@@novelbin@@

He extended a finger and pointed at a line in the research results requirements of the competition.

“Research achievements related to Guardian Beast Co-operation.”

A bit of mischief suddenly arose in Lin Su’s heart.

Ever since Dark Demon Body, the first co-operation technique, was proposed, there had been much discussion in the research community about it.

Because Lin Su was quite concerned about whether martial techniques from his own world would adapt well to this one, he paid close attention to the discussions of other researchers.

In these discussions, many pointed out the biggest flaw in co-operation techniques so far.

That is, there were too few varieties.

Up to now, there was only one Dark-type co-operation technique, not enough to form a system.

So…

If he were to unpack and present the more than a hundred different martial arts he had accumulated at the teaching achievements competition…

Then the first place in this teaching achievements competition should be secured, right?

“You’re up to mischief again, aren’t you?” Seeing Lin Su’s slightly sinister smile, Qin Nan couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “What will you be researching this time?”

“It’s a secret, a secret.” Lin Su smirked, “Sister Nan, you’ll find out in due time.”

“Alright then.” Qin Nan sighed, “I look forward to it.”

“Don’t worry, it will definitely surprise you.” Lin Su chuckled.

“In the teaching achievements competition, our Mountain City University has always not done very well.” Qin Nan spread her hands, “From the name of our research institute, you can tell that our university’s researchers are better at evolution route research, so for this teaching achievements competition, no one internally will compete with you for the qualification to participate.”

“Rest assured, with me around, our performance this time definitely won’t be poor,” Lin Su said confidently with a smile.

“Alright, go study and prepare for your final exams.” Qin Nan said.

“Righto,” Lin Su nodded and left Qin Nan’s research office to return to his own.

Study and prepare for final exams?

That was the task of a ghost.

He was just a relentless answering machine.

Glancing at Ghost, who had already taken out his communicator and started studying the courseware distributed by the teachers as if he really meant it, Lin Su smiled and continued his research on evolution routes.

After finishing this evolution route research, he should take a break and start organizing the co-operation techniques.

One prerequisite for using research results to participate in the teaching achievements competition was…
