Training with Everyone

"Anastasia you'll be coming with us to the High level energy source. That's great!" Pace said.

"So let's go get the prizes! We should start cultivating early before the next round is announced." Leon said. He then left for the place to get the prizes. There was still only a few people, Leon quickly joined. The others followed behind.

The group talked and the line slowly moved forward. Others joined behind. Finally Leon reached the counter.

"Show me you're Clan badge." The lady at the counter said. Leon took it out. She saw the name and was a little more energetic. "Please choose from this list which medium grade material you want. You will have to go to elder Peer for the evolution fruit, beast jellies and reward for the third round."

Leon went through the List and nodded to what the lady said. The list didn't have much that caught his attention. As he read to the last fruit he was happily surprised. "I want the Sad Life fruit."

The lady was surprised to but didn't argue. Leon got a spatial bag with the prizes in it. He then went to the side and waited. Soon the others came to Leon.

"Leon what medium grade material did you choose? I chose the golden incandescent fruit."

"The sad life fruit? What the sad life fruit?! Why would you choose that. It was the most useless fruit on the list. I was wondering why it was crossed off. Not only is it rare and they only had one of it, it also has no real purpose then to make a beast sad for a while."

"The name sounded interesting so I chose it. Eos what did you choose?" Leon changed the topic.

"I chose a Red Sky fruit." Eos said.

Leon nodded with her sky element it was expected she was going to choose it.

Pace turned to the other four and said, "You guys go and start cultivating we'll get the rest of the rewards."

The four nodded. They left for their rooms in the palace to cultivate.

Leon, Pace and Eos left to find this Elder Peer. It took a little roaming and they found him.

"Show me your clan badge." Leon showed it. The elder saw it and nodded. "Choose a beast jelly from this list."

Leon looked through. There were mainly abilities from the water, fire, ice, earth, plant, metal, wind elements. There were a few blood and lightning abilities as well. Leon chose the ability Lightning needles.

The elder nodded and gave him the beast jelly. "Now choose another one from this list."

This list had less options compared to the one before but had abilities from the light, dark, shadow and even holy element. Leon quickly found the only holy ability, Serenity of Heart.

The man was a bit surprised by the choice holy beast were rare. "Which element of the soul evolution fruits do you want?"

"Holy."

The man shook his head, "Sorry we don have any in the Holy element."

"Lightning then." The man nodded and gave it to Leon.

"Here is your reward for defeating the King Stromfire wolf." He gave Leon a cloudy bead. "This is a storm bead. It will evolve a beast into a storm element beast."

Leon nodded and kept it away. Pace went by second and then went Eos.

"Let's each go to our rooms now. We'll cultivate for a while and see when that next round is ammunced." Pace said.

They did just that. They talked on the way back. They entered there rooms.

Leon set up a few formations and lightly used Formless aura. He summoned the Lightning Griffin.

"Here take this and this." Leon gave it the Lightning needles beast jelly and the Lightning soul evolution fruit. He then sat in front of it and started drawing the second rune for the Lightning God's Armor.

The Griffin ate the two things and transformed into an egg. Leon drew the rune and stamped it on the egg. The egg flashed with light and then stopped.

Leon summoned the Blood Harpy and had it eat the Other beast jelly, the one with the Serenity of Heart ability. The ability allowed a beast that was casting a spell to be clam and not break concentration. It was like how the Capricorn was able to teleport around with it's magic circle. Serenity of Heart allowed the magic circle to follow the caster as well. Other then that it also made spells stronger by a small amount and allowed better control.

The Blood Harpy had some of its feathers turn white. It's eyes had turned white as well. Leon could also feel an influx of Holy energy. Leon felt worst seeing this, "If only they had a Holy soul evolution fruit I could have evolved you to your full potential." Leon shook his head and unsummoned the harpy.

Leon took out a drop of soul dew from the three drops he had gotten and put it on the Lightning Griffin egg. It absorbed the energy and easily.

Leon then took another drop of soul dew and put it in his mouth. He then took out the Soul breakthrough pill. He was at Level five summoning teacher. He was going to breakthrough as much as he could.

Leon ran the Lightning Step art and cultivated. With the Griffin evolving his affinity was increasing fast as well. Leon broke through to level seven easily. He then started cultivating Nine Thrones soul technique as he waited for that egg to hatch. Leon didn't cultivate formless aura the next levels weren't as useful, they didn't return the amount of energy you had to put in. He had decided to cultivate it later.

He was already on the fourth Thorne. He was really far from reaching the fifth throne. The egg hatched and the Griffin came out. It unwrapped its wings and stood in from of Leon. It was still the same species, Lightning Griffin, it's potential had increased from six to seven voidstars and Its appearance looked even more majestic. It now had a lighter blue for fur and feathers. It's head was still white.

It's eyes flashed with a Black star that appeared for a second and disappeared. The Eyes returned to the normal yellow colour they were before. Leon after the seeing the star recognised it. In The Griffins memory of the Basilisk. It's eyes had been completely white with a similar black star in it.

"Did you gain another Basilisk eye ability?"

The Griffin nodded. It told Leon that it could now copy all lightning spells for now. As the eye grew stronger it would be able to copy all spells.

Leon was happy with that.

His door was knocked. "Mister Leon, Your meeting with Harlan Ash will be held in the main hall. Please make your way there." Leon shouted that he would. He then changed and made himself look proper. He used Formless aura to change as much of everything he could. He then left.

As Leon walked towards the main hall Pace and Eos joined him as well.

"Apparently we can consult as many beast as we want!" Pace said excitedly. "I always wondered what I should evolve Fiona into, I can now finally find out."

In The hall a young man sat on the air and cultivated. He had a colourful Bird on its head. The bird wore a golden monocle and watched the three enter.

That was Harlan and his beast the knowledge seeker bird.

The bird flew off Harlan's shoulder and circled the three. After it had gotten a good look it sat back on Harlan's shoulder. It nodded and wascomincating with the young man.

"I've had my friend here see all your beast. I have thought of your paths. Who wants to go first?" Harlan said with his eyes closed.

Pace looked at Leon and Eos and went first. "Sir Harlan Ash, I'll go first."

"Your beast are Fire Cat, StarFire Peng and Purple Cloud Fish."

"Yes." Pace answered. He was impressed and wondered how he figured it put.

Leon on the other hand watched while concentrating on his soul book. That bird had a ability to see through the soul. It could see the whole soul book just from seeing a person. Leon had already used Formless aura to change what it saw.

"Evolve it into a Shadow Fire Cat. You may even evolve it into a Shadow fire Panther or Cheetah. To evolve it you could use a Shadow soul evolution fruit. Or you could find shadow material slowly and make it a cumulative process."

"Your StarFire Peng us very talented. It's potential is clearly limiting its ability. I have chosen two paths for you. These are the ones that I think are most suitable. One is to evolve it into a Fire Nebula Peng. The other is to evolve it into a Golden SunFire Peng."

"Finally for the Purple Cloud Fish. Evolve it into a Royal Storm whale. Gunther give him the paper." The bird nodded. It opened its mouth and choked out a scroll of paper. Harlan took it into his hand. "Here, this has the details on how to evolve your beasts."

Pace went up and got the scroll. It was wet from the birds saliva but he held it like it was the most precious thing in the world. He said Thank you and moved back to read through what was written on the scroll.

Leon signalled for Eos to go first. She didn't wait.

Eos walked forward.

"Oh young girl, you are really talented. The rare sky element. How about you become my disciple?"

Eos was shocked by the question. So was Pace. Leon could see this happening with Eos's amazing talent however he still didn't think Harlan would immediately ask.

Eos was surprised and couldn't sat anything. She turned to see Leon who was nodding to tell her to agree to become his disciple. Then she saw Pace who didn't have much of an opinion. He some how signalled to her that she should do what she wanted. If she couldn't decide she should ask to delay the decision.

Eos then was convinced. Opportunities like these came rare. "Eos Flamesmith Greets master." Eos said with a bow.

"Good, Good, I didn't think I would get a disciple. Now your beast are a Skyfire Witch and a Blue Flame Fairy."

Eos nodded.

"Your Skyfire Witch is one of the most talented beast I have ever seen. She should be able to evolve into a Skyfire Empress Witch or you could evolve her into a Sky Archmage."

"As for the Blue Flame Fairy. It is in the path of evolving into a SkyFire Fairy. You can continue with that or change it to Demon Flame Fairy."

"Meet me after I'm done with this. I'll make the discipleship official and teach you all about your beast. You will be able to make a better judgement then."

Eos said Thank you and moved back to Pace. Pace started to congratulate her. They both quietly talked as Leon moved forward.

Harlan smiled. Just like he had for Eos, except this time he said, "So much talent and so much knowledge. The most talented person I have ever seen. Sadly you aren't some one I can teach."

"Your beast are Purple Ice Serpent, Red Flaming Tiger, Holy Blood Sparrow and a Lightning Griffin."

Pace and Eos were shocked by the list. They knew about the tiger and the Griffin. They didn't know the frost snake had evolved into a purple Ice Serpent or his blood sparrow gained the Holy element.

"This will take a while. All your beast seem to be in a process of evolution. They can take multiple paths and have a lot of potential. The Purple Ice Serpent, is one of the reasons why I didn't call the Skyfire Witch the most talented beast I had seen. This serpent is like it's part of nature. This may be hard to do, but I think if anyone can do it, it would be you. You should evolve the serpent down the path of a Frost Lamia."

Leon acted confuse, he knew what a Lanka was but he wasn't suppose to know what it was.

Seeing the confused expression, Harlan nodded that it was expected. "Lamias are extremely rare beast. They were the peak form snake beast achieved in legends. A human like super body and a snakes lower body. You should have heard of the Mythical Beast Medusa."

"Yes, I have read about her." Leon answered. Pace and Eos just listened with confusion.

"Good, She was the queen of the Lamia race in ancient times. Now the Lamia race is almost extinct. I found a path of evolution for a Lamia but it was almost impossible to achieve. Your Purple Ice Serpent should be able to."

"Now the Red Flaming Tiger. This beast is difficult. It seems to posses evil energy. I think you should release it from your contract."

Leon was surprised. He shook his head and said, "I can't do that, it is my friend. So what if it has evil energy."

Harlan shook his head, "That is to be expected. I think you should Evolve it into a Cold Mind Tiger. Although it is odd to completely change a beasts attribute it is a must in your case. The Cold Mind Tiger has the unique ability of Cold Mind which will allow your tiger to always stay calm and rational, lessening effect from the Evil energy."

Leon nodded. He had thought about teaching the chimera a similar ability. However he would need something strong. Cold MInd would hardly work. He still hadn't found anything. Even the Ephemeral Lightning Great Library didn't have it.

"Your Holy Blood Sparrow is truly a peak magic talent. Keep evolving it using the Holy element. It should be able to evolve into a Holy Harpy. This will take much effort and time but it should possible."

"Now your last beast the Lightning griffin. Something you don't see often In The Fire Continet. It had something very unique about it. I can't tell what. As a Griffin it is already a peak beast. No need for it to change species. You can add another element. With your talent in the Fire element it would be easy to evolve it into a Fire Lighning Griffin."

"You could also keep its elemental affinity pure and evolve it into a Lightning Storm Griffin."

Leon nodded. Nothing he said was useful to him. He kept his thoughts hidden.

"Gunther give him a scroll as well." The bird choked out a thicker scroll. Leon took and and stood back with the two. They looked at Leon with amazement. They didn't know Leon's Beast were so strong. He hadn't even hatched his primal Beast!

"Eos you stay. Leon and Pace, you both can leave."

Leon and Pace said bye to Eos and left for there rooms.

Leon entered his room and opened the Scroll. It didn't contain much new information. The path for evolving a beast into a Lamia had been made public in ten years. The Serpentine Clan had reappeared then and caused a massive uproar. It took a few days of bribing and Spying and the world knew the evolution path. The path was difficult and wasn't worth a Lamia Beast which was around a eight voidstar beast.

Other then that it had a Big Bold release the Tiger underneath the Red Flaming Tiger's name. Leon ignored and moved on. Nothing interesting was added about the Holy Blood Sparrow and Lightning Griffin.

Although He didn't make points on evolving the Griffin. Leon felt those evolution paths were awful. He had a much better plan then for the Griffin then a simple Fire Lightning or Lightning Strom Griffin.

"Well it's to be expected if I hid so Much in the first place."

Leon shook his head and summoned the Lightning Griffin to cultivate with. His Lightning affinity had reached scholar level after its evolution and he wanted to from the Lightning Step rune.,
