The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

“Brother, if it goes on like this, the students at Rosewood College will say that you’re not as good as David Jones, and this will greatly damage the reputation of the Highland Battle Club we founded.” The woman in the cheongsam showed a puzzled look on her face.

In her opinion, as long as Jackson Grant publicly challenged David Jones, the negative impact caused by the change in rankings during this period would instantly disappear.

As for the defeat in battle, it was absolutely impossible!

“You underestimate the value of the Myrtle and Purple Star Lists! Everyone is watching right now, so why should we be the first to step forward?

It’s just a drop in the Myrtle List rankings and a reduction in credits; I can afford this cost.”

At this point, Jackson Grant looked at his younger sister intently.

“Compared to the lost credits, don’t you think we can establish a good relationship with this promising new star through this matter?”

Upon hearing this, the woman in the cheongsam looked at Jackson Grant in disbelief. Is this really her proud elder brother?

While the outside world buzzed with discussion, David Jones had already followed Margaret Yule to the Halo Building at Rosewood College, attracting a lot of fiery gazes along the way.

Noticing the surrounding crowd’s gaze, David Jones shrugged his shoulders slightly, and walked into room 303 at a leisurely pace with Margaret Yule.

At this moment, many students had already gathered in the classroom, forming distinct small groups and chatting, creating a somewhat noisy atmosphere.

At first glance, David Jones recognized the team members sitting in the center of the classroom, who were eye-catching in both temperament and appearance.

“Captain, here!”

Seeing David Jones’s appearance, Yann York hurriedly raised his right hand to signal, his face full of excitement and enthusiasm.

“Is he David Jones who made it to the top ten of both lists today?”

Hearing Yann’s mention of the captain, many well-informed students’ eyes instantly turned to David Jones in surprise.

Because these students were the leaders in their respective groups, the others followed their lead and looked at David Jones. The noisy classroom became silent in an instant.

David Jones frowned, ignored the surrounding gazes and walked towards the group with Margaret Yule.

Yann opened his mouth, his face conflicted. He appeared to have a lot to say, but in the end, he whispered, “Long time no see, Captain.”

Although the time spent together was only a month, David Jones was not only a good friend with whom Yann shared a common goal in the path of Pharmacy, but also a kind and instructive captain.

Hence, when he learned that David Jones had delayed military training, he was the one in the team who was most worried about David Jones, besides Margaret Yule.

“What are you all doing here?” David Jones asked curiously.

This class was a temporary choice for him, a Mechinery-focused assembly and cultivation interest class, so the chances of such a coincidence should be extremely low.

“Everyone missed you, so I told them all about your class schedule.” Margaret Yule, who was sitting next to him, spoke up.

As David Jones and the team members briefly caught up, the time quickly approached two o’clock.

A teacher in his thirties, with a serious face, square features, and a white research uniform, briskly walked onto the podium.

“I am Harvey Parker, the lecturer for Mechinery cultivation courses. I will explain the three important points you need to pay attention to when cultivating mechanical Pet beasts for you…”

Mr. Parker waved his hand, and a sci-fi-style 3D screen instantly appeared in front of the blackboard.

As the lecture progressed, David took notes, carefully recording the important points.

Since he formed a Contract with a Mechinery-type Gluttonous Beast, he needed to understand the crucial aspects of cultivation and Strengthening Mechinery- type Pet beasts to be a qualified Trainer.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen David so serious!”

Margaret Yule, who was beside him, stared at David Jones’s increasingly focused face.

As for the lecture, she, who focused on Ice, couldn’t understand the Mechinery knowledge as if it were a heavenly book.

Subjects like Mechinery transformation, flesh and blood Mechinery, chip modification and upgrades, she understood nine out of ten points but failed on the last one.

Seeing this, Sylvia Creek nudged Yolanda York’s elbow playfully, showing a shipper’s smile.

Conversely, Yann stared at the Gluttonous Beast, which had transformed into a small Giant Dragon on David Jones’s desk, lost in thought.

“Is this the Mechinery Pet beast that the captain just contracted?”

As he pondered in his heart, the Gluttonous Beast, who was downloading the teacher’s course materials using a smart chip, looked up at him.

“What a terrifying aura!”

Yann’s pupils shrank. In a trance, it seemed as if a Giant Dragon, who looked down upon all creatures and reigned supreme in the heavens and earth, was staring at him intently.

For a moment, his heart raced, his body unable to move, and even his skin shuddered with goosebumps due to the terrifying life gap that couldn’t be expressed in words!

“Focus and study hard.” Realizing that something was wrong, David Jones slapped the Gluttonous Beast’s head with a palm.

“Roar!”

The Gluttonous Beast lowered its head and showed a submissive appearance.

At the same time, Yann’s body relaxed, and he let out a breath involuntarily, “Hu!”

“Sorry, Gluttonous Beast has a bit of a domineering temper and doesn’t like people staring at it.” David Jones turned his head and spoke to Yann.

“No, it’s my problem.” Yann shook his head.

High-level Pet beasts more or less have their own temperaments, and he was indeed a little rude to stare at the Gluttonous Beast.

“This unknown Gluttonous Beast is most likely an Overlord! It seems that the gap between me and the captain not only hasn’t narrowed, but has grown bigger and bigger!” Yann smiled bitterly in his heart.

The bell rang for the end of class, and Mr. Parker didn’t drag on, ending the class on time and leaving promptly.

“Captain, there’s a club recruiting new members at the Rosewood Plaza at three in the afternoon. Shall we go and take a look?” Cecily Mansfield suggested.

“The military training has long been over, so everyone can just call me by my name.” David Jones said.

Cecily didn’t speak, but Yolanda on the side shook her head gently and said softly, “In our eyes, you’ll always be our captain!”

David Jones gave a helpless smile, “Fine, it’s just a title, as long as you guys are happy.”

“Hey, speaking of clubs, why don’t we establish a Trainer club with you as the main focus and occupy a territory at Mountain Rosewood to earn credits,” Yann suggested, eager to work hard alongside the trustworthy David Jones.

Upon hearing this proposal, Sylvia Creek’s eyes lit up.

“Exactly, why should we join other clubs? We can create our own club. What do you think, Captain?”

Seeing that everyone’s attention was focused on him, David Jones showed a bitter smile and declined tactfully, “There are many things to deal with in managing a club, and I may not have that much time, so I better not.”

“No way!” Margaret Yule decisively opposed.

“Only students ranked in the top 100 of the Myrtle List and Purple Star List can establish clubs.

Apart from you, no one is qualified to be the president. If you think you don’t have time, I can help you handle the club affairs.” Margaret Yule hurriedly persuaded.
