Yujing City Summoner Temple

A special place for summoners led by the Summoning Court of the Wu Ji Continent. If a summoner passed the assessment of the Summoner Temple, they would become official summoners.

Feng Kuo promised Yun Sheng that he wouldn't reveal her identity, so before Yun Sheng entered the Summoner Temple, he gave Yun Sheng a pair of earrings, the small pieces of jewelry were made from a Soulstone and were a special magic appliance called 'Illusionary Earring'.

With regards to magic appliances, Yun Sheng had come into contact with them from Ding Lei, in the Jiao Ye Village.

To put it simply, a magic appliance was an item made by a specialized magician with some kind of special magic effect attached to it.

This Illusionary Earing had a permanent mist spell attached to it. By wearing it, even if Yun Sheng stood directly in front of another person and they looked into her face, the other party wouldn't remember her face, the only thing they could recall would be a face shrouded in a hazy layer of fog.

Wen Renhuo and the others also had similar magic appliances, because of their identity as mercenaries, it was natural that they also conducted some shady business. A magic appliance that could change someone's appearance could be considered a necessary tool for killing and robbing.

With this magic appliance, Yun Sheng wouldn't need to worry about her identity being seen.

"Hello, we're here for a Summoner Assessment," accompanied by Feng Kuo and the others, Yun Sheng arrived at Yujing City's Summoner Temple.

In the Great Zhou Empire summoners were quite scarce, during weekdays there weren't many people in the Summoner Temple. Most of the time only one person 'the examiner' could be seen in the Summoner Temple.

With Feng Kuo's bear-like appearance and his loud voice, by the time he entered, the sleeping examiner was already awakened from his shouting.

"How many of you want to take the summoner assessment?" The examiner thought that the three people including Feng Kuo wanted to be assessed.

"She," Feng Kuo simply raised Yun Sheng with one hand, causing Yun Sheng to be embarrassed, but after she was seated on Feng Kuo's shoulder, the view was condescending and it was quite a good feeling.

Compared to the big, tall man, Yun Sheng was like a petit doll, so small it was no wonder the appraiser hadn't seen her.

"You? Little girl, you can summon beasts? What type of demon beast is your summoned beast?" The examiner's spirit was uplifted, there really weren't many summoners in the Great Zhou Empire, and the number of new summoners was pitifully low every year in Yujing City, they were grateful for every new summoner that appeared.

Only the people of the Summoner Temple knew how rare summoners in the Great Zhou Empire were, even in the Royal Family, there were no more than five summoners.

What kind of demon beast was Bobo? This was a question Yun Sheng never really considered.

According to the continent's classification of demon beasts, most of the time there were special plants or animal demon beasts, but there were also some strange and bizarre artifacts or magical elves, but the latter two were very rare, and the average summoner could only summon plants and animal demon beasts.

"It should be an animal," Yun Sheng wasn't too sure of Bobo's specific type, but it had wings, so she assumed it to be an animal demon beast.

"What's the demon beast's combat technique? Is it a melee demon beast or a ranged-attack demon beast? Or perhaps some other rare support-skill demon beast?" The examiner continued to ask questions.

"It doesn't seem to know magic, nor does it know any melee techniques, for its combat skill...it's good at crying?" Yun Sheng's words became more and more quiet, and aside from the examiner, the mercenary trio also became increasingly confused by what they heard.

A summoned beast that was good at crying, this was the first time they heard of something like that, they initially thought that Xiao Hei was Yun Sheng's summoned beast, but never would they have thought that it was just a Battle Pet.

"Crying?! Crying can't be considered a battle skill, can it?" The examiner of the Summoner temple was embarrassed, a summoned beast's purpose was aiding its master in battle. A crybaby summoned beast, that was too disgraceful!

"Who said crying doesn't count as a combat skill. A combat skill is a skill that has the ability to cause damage or other effects. If you don't believe me, try to resist Bobo's cry for fifteen minutes," Yun Sheng was a little disgruntled and immediately recited the summoning spell.

After a surge of magic elements, a strange, lively egg with wings appeared in front of Yun Sheng.

"Dear master, you haven't summoned Bobo for a long time, Bobo thought you didn't want Bobo anymore. Why are there so many people here? Bobo will be shy...," Bobo was so excited that he jumped around Yun Sheng nonstop.

The language of the summoned beast could only be understood by the respective master who was connected with the summoned beast, so to the ears of others, it just sounded like a whiny, whiny monster egg!

"Bobo, this is the Summoner Temple, I'm undergoing the summoner assessment, it's very important to me. But that examiner said that you're too ugly and useless not knowing any battle skills, and shouldn't be called a summoned beast! He told me to quickly break the contract with you and find a new summoned beast," Yun Sheng said.

Ugly? Useless? How could that be!!!

Breaking the contract? This was too much of an insult to the egg.

"What—" an earth-shaking howl, accompanied by two waterfalls of tears, Bobo bounced up and down and made a howling sound that was incomparably miserable.

The sound was like a demon or ghost appearing to claim their lives. It was unknown where all the tears came from.

In no time Bobo's tears had flooded half of the assessment room.

Not to mention fifteen minutes, after just five minutes, the examiner felt his head grow heavy, his hands and feet convulsed, and foam almost appeared on his mouth, he was about to faint.

Terrible, this egg's crying was like a frightening sonic-type mental attack.

The examiner didn't dare underestimate Bobo after this, this thought didn't even cross his mind, fighting against the impulse to faint, he grabbed a piece of paper with his shaking hand, and wrote a few brush strokes on it: Summoned Beast level unknown, unknown egg beast, good at mental attacks with extremely terrifying destructive power.

With that, the examiner begged Yun Sheng to take her summoned beast back.

Yun Sheng also immediately summoned Bobo back, fortunately Bobo's cries had minimal effect on her, otherwise she really would have broken their contract.

"Congratulations, you are now an official summoner, this is your summoner ring, from today onwards, you are a true summoner," the examiner glanced at the alias Yun Sheng had used and that was imprinted on the ring , "Yan Yun".

Yun Sheng received the summoner ring, this ring was very similar to the beast language ring, but that was all. It couldn't store items like the ring left behind by her mother, Hu Jiusheng. So, she silently stored it away. She would only use the beast language ring in the future.

When leaving the room, both Wen Renhuo and Mu Nan Yan were leaning against the wall, the only one who had fared better after the crying was Feng Kuo, but he was still trembling.

As soon as the door opened, Wen Renhuo supported his forehead and gave a long sigh, "Who would have known that crying could also be a Battle Skill."
