Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return-Chapter 1220 - 1120: Lowering the Difficulty for Mu Hanyan

"Go on, go on." Master Liang said with a resigned look, like someone ready to face death.

"Oh, right, a new batch of Wind Spirit Rabbits has arrived in the hall, don’t forget." After working together for many years, Master Zhu didn’t want anything bad to happen to Master Liang, so he kindly reminded him before leaving.

"Wind Spirit Rabbits!" Master Liang’s eyes lit up.

...

"You all are elites among the younger generation of Anyun. It’s my honor to have you here to study the Beast Taming Technique. Our Beast Taming Hall will certainly impart all our knowledge of Beast Taming Technique to you, so I hope you will study hard and bring glory to the art.

Next, I will teach you all a few Beast Taming Handprints and some Beast Taming Mantras. Once you are familiar with them, you can go to the Beast Taming Room at the back of the hall and try to tame the exotic beasts.

By the way, the exotic beasts we prepared this time are Wind Spirit Rabbits, absolutely no risk involved, so everyone can relax," Master Liang said straightforwardly once everyone was gathered.

"Wind Spirit Rabbits!" Upon hearing Master Liang’s words, everyone was slightly stunned.

"What’s wrong?" Seeing Zirong’s surprised expression, Mu Hanyan asked curiously.

Mu Hanyan had heard of Wind Spirit Rabbits. Ordinary rabbits are renowned for their hearing ability, but Wind Spirit Rabbits have a natural gift, with hearing far surpassing that of ordinary rabbits by several orders of magnitude, so they are often trained in the military for reconnaissance during battles. However, they have no attack capabilities at all and even run slower than ordinary rabbits, considered the lowest tier of exotic beasts.

"Wind Spirit Rabbits have extremely low intelligence and no attack or defense capabilities, so they are generally not used for disciples to practice Beast Taming Technique," Zirong replied softly.

"Then what do you usually use?" Mu Hanyan asked.

"At the worst, mutant Wind Pigs or single-horned raging sheep," Zirong replied.

Speaking of mutant Wind Pigs, Mu Hanyan recalled the pink pig brother that caused Fourth Miss Zhao to run naked in public upon her rebirth... maybe it was a pig sister.

At that time, mutant Wind Pigs indeed seemed terrifying, but for Long Yan Academy’s disciples, they were insignificant, even powerful Wind Pigs that have lived for centuries and nearly become spirit creatures are no match for them.

In contrast, this time using Wind Spirit Rabbits to practice Beast Taming Technique is really weak.

Mu Hanyan couldn’t help but glance at Master Liang a few more times. Could it be that he chose such weak exotic beasts on purpose fearing she might stir trouble again?

Indeed, Mu Hanyan guessed right.

After the initial surprise, other disciples subconsciously looked at Mu Hanyan, evidently sharing the same thought. How dramatic, those previous tests increased difficulty for Mu Hanyan, and now it’s lowered for her. Such is the changeability of circumstances, invoking countless emotions.

Regardless, using such weak exotic beasts to practice Beast Taming Technique naturally minimizes risk, so everyone’s mood was completely relaxed.

Soon, Master Liang explained those Beast Taming Handprints and Mantras thoroughly a few times. As he didn’t want to cause trouble, he didn’t elaborate excessively, leaving the remainder for them to practice independently and stayed away from Mu Hanyan, letting her and the Wind Spirit Rabbits take their time, ensuring no danger.

"This is the Beast Taming Room. Once you enter, the seal will close automatically. When you succeed in taming the Wind Spirit Rabbits inside, the seal will open automatically," Master Liang said as he guided Mu Hanyan and the others to the Beast Taming Room at the back of the hall.

The seal outside the Beast Taming Room is a rule passed down from ancient times by the Beast Taming Hall, as aside from weak creatures like the Wind Spirit Rabbits that barely qualify as exotic beasts, most other exotic beasts still have some attack capabilities and could harm civilians if they escaped.

"So, what if you can’t tame them?" Mu Hanyan asked.

Hearing Mu Hanyan’s question, some almost laughed out loud. If you can’t even tame a Wind Spirit Rabbit, why study Beast Taming Technique at all? Better to switch focus early and not waste time.

But they quickly realized that given Mu Hanyan’s aptitude, even if her talent in Beast Taming is poor, it’s impossible she couldn’t tame a Wind Spirit Rabbit, right? Clearly, she wasn’t asking about today’s practice but regular practice. It seemed she knew today’s practice being so simple was likely due to her.

"If you can’t tame it, you can kill it, and the seal will break automatically," Master Liang explained patiently.

Usually, the exotic beasts chosen for disciples’ practice aren’t strong, at most equivalent to Swordsman Sixth or Seventh Rank. With the talent of these young elites from Anyun, even if they can’t tame them, killing them wouldn’t be too difficult.

Still, usually no one does this because they are here to practice Beast Taming Technique, not to kill. For killing exotic beasts, there are many in the Longyan Mountain, why waste time here? So even spending more time and patience, eventually they tame them.

"Moreover, each exotic beast has different bloodlines, innate superpowers, so the handprints and mantras I taught must be used flexibly to be effective. Don’t memorized them rigidly without knowing how to adapt." As he opened the seal, Master Liang reminded everyone once more.

Mu Hanyan nodded silently. Although the Beast Taming Technique isn’t as complex as Alchemy Technique, the medicinal herbs used in Alchemy are ultimately lifeless, whereas exotic beasts possess Spiritual Sense, some high-level exotic beasts have wisdom equal to or greater than humans, so taming them isn’t easy.

This was the reason Mu Hanyan and the others practiced Beast Taming Technique using exotic beasts from the first day. Compared to other Qimen exotic beasts, Beast Taming Technique requires more adaptable skills, the personal aptitude requirement is no less.

Upon opening the seal, the disciples entered the Beast Taming Room one by one. Knowing they were practicing with Wind Spirit Rabbits this time, everyone looked relaxed without any pressure.

Mu Hanyan also walked into the Beast Taming Room. The door closed behind her, the Sealing Rune flickered, completely sealing the door.

The surroundings were dimly lit, eerily silent, Mu Hanyan blinked forcefully until she adjusted to the light, then saw a furry wild rabbit lying in front of her, curiously examining her.

This wild rabbit had long gray-brown fur, appearing twice as large as regular rabbits, with fat head and big ears, giving off a silly impression. Its ears stood high, displaying a cyan-blue color, marking the biggest difference between Wind Spirit Rabbits and regular rabbits, clearly distinguishable with a glance.

Without wasting time, Mu Hanyan immediately made the handprints and recited the Beast Taming Mantra taught by Master Liang.

A phantom of light and shadow appeared, forming an invisible net that enveloped the Wind Spirit Rabbit. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Success, so simple!" Mu Hanyan felt a bit disappointed. Despite Master Liang’s concerns fearing he would provoke her to follow Tian Wenliang’s path, the practice shouldn’t be so simple, should it? Wasn’t this just a trick?

But soon, Mu Hanyan realized she underestimated the complexity of Beast Taming Technique.
