9: I want to be a salted fish

Han Zhou hooked Bai Yuhan's shoulder and moved forward with him.

Passing by Song Yu, he gave her a strange look, then turned away and started chatting and laughing with Bai Yuhan.

Watching the two figures leaving, Song Yu's expression stiffened, her spine rigid, and her eyelashes involuntarily trembling.

It's not that she's scared, but when the novel reaches its climax, this guy, dressed in a white school uniform with a slightly faded backpack, will become the most powerful ninth-stage pinnacle Tamer in this martial world, easily destroying a super-first-tier city with a wave of his hand.

As a typical male protagonist in a cool male-oriented novel, Bai Yuhan not only has a high-level Tamer space but also possesses an unprecedented ssss-level Tamer space in history.

While others are happy with a Tamer space the size of a football field (c-level), Bai Yuhan already has a super Tamer space comparable to the area of Hainan Island, complete with sky, sun, plants, sea, and a microorganism chain.

Moreover, the space has ample original energy, and just one breath taken by the contracted beast can be refreshing.

More importantly, the ssss-level Tamer space has a 1:100 training speed and comes with the divine talent skill "Level Shackles Breakthrough." As the name suggests, this skill assists the contracted beast in breaking through level barriers.

In addition to this, Bai Yuhan naturally possesses a pair of eyes equivalent to divine rules. He can easily see through the strength, potential, and talent skills of all Beasts and digitize the data to find the contracted beast with the highest talent potential at any time, adjusting the direction of the battle.

Song Yu sighed, "sss-level Tamer space, reducing the difficulty of the contracted beast's training, plus seeing through the potential of Beasts... If this isn't the best, then what is?"

"Other people's Beasts: insect types, rabbit family, dog family... Various types mixed together."

"Bai Yuhan's Beasts: dragons, dragons, dragons, dragons... Not to mention high talent potential, he doesn't even bother to take a look."

For anyone with a bit of insight, at this moment, they are already cowering.

Not to mention Bai Yuhan, the male lead of the novel, favored by the heavens. Not only can he handle everything skillfully, but he also becomes more powerful every time he encounters danger.

"All the villains on the future road are paper tigers."

"Can I, a laid-back fish who doesn't even want to become a Tamer, get anything good from the male lead?"

"It's just my luck that's really bad..."

Song Yu cursed herself silently. Clearly, she had planned for the next year to detour away from Bai Yuhan, but unexpectedly, on the first day of school, she collided with him.

Suddenly...

Song Yu's face stiffened, her throat dried up. "Could it be that the consciousness of this novel insists on twisting the plot back to its original course after the host's death?"

Song Yu's pupils shook, her scalp tingling. She looked at Bai Yuhan's back, who had just left with his friend, and unconsciously swallowed her saliva.

"No way!"

She, Song Stubborn Yu, absolutely wouldn't let such a thing happen!

On the other side, Han Zhou dangled his arm casually over Bai Yuhan's shoulder, looking puzzled. "What's wrong with you, little guy? Just bumped into Class 5's school flower a moment ago, why do you look so bitter, with your brows furrowed?"

Touching his clearly visible and slender left hand veins, Bai Yuhan, without exerting any force, easily pulled Han Zhou's arm down. He lifted his eyelids slightly, his voice tinged with doubt, "… Break up?"

"Yeah, that's right, a breakup. Don't you know?" Han Zhou nodded, full of gossip. "Tsk tsk! The school forum has been crazy these days. School Flower Song awakened an F-level trash Tamer space last week. She probably won't have a chance to become a professional Tamer in her whole life. So, just three days later, Zhou Er Shao broke up with School Flower Song. Now he's dating Class 6's school flower."

"Oh, I heard Class 6's school flower awakened a B-level Tamer space." Han Zhou raised his eyebrows, the soul of gossip burning brightly as he chattered about the 'love and hate' of these two women and one man.

In fact, compared to women, men are more fond of gossip news.

So, within less than 24 hours of these two incidents, more than half of the people had heard about it on the school forum.

Bai Yuhan, with his tall figure and long legs, walked quickly on the school's camphor tree-lined path. His footsteps only paused for a moment upon hearing this, then he continued walking forward. 

In Bai Yuhan's mind, he subconsciously recalled the words that White Hedgehog and his friend said at the internet cafe a few days ago, as well as the information he saw just now...

—"Don't you believe it? My sister must be crazy!"

—"Maybe she's been under too much pressure, suffering from a mental breakdown!"

—[Name: Song Yu (mentally abnormal)]

—[Race: Human]

—[Tamer space level: ?]

—[Description: A beautiful female human with thick, jet-black hair, no need to worry about the risk of baldness in this lifetime. Four days ago, after being stimulated, she experienced mental abnormalities. Maybe she'll recover, maybe she won't recover in this lifetime, who knows?]

Bai Yuhan's brow furrowed slightly, and a complicated emotion flickered in his stern profile, unreadable to others.

Bai Yuhan patted Han Zhou on the shoulder. "Alright, stop reading gossip on the forum. It's the initial Beast contract day... Are you planning to gossip with Beasts?"

Han Zhou looked speechless, gazing at the sky, then tilted his head and teasingly scolded, "You, kid, spare me this act. How could I not know today is the initial Beast distribution day? My parents have already prepared everything I need for contracting Beasts... What about you? At the very least, you should prepare some first-grade spirit plants and minerals, right?"

Both of them walked towards Class 3, passing by groups of teachers, students, and other people.

Bai Yuhan remained composed, looking at the data popping up from others, trying not to focus on one person for more than ten seconds, and avoiding concentrating his gaze on a single person.

He preferred to be a normal person rather than having the ability to see some classmates' private secrets at will.

"Hmm?" Bai Yuhan's gaze instinctively stopped at the top of the stairs.

Ahead, there was a middle-aged couple with slightly graying hair, pushing a wheelchair in front of them.

On the wheelchair sat someone familiar with the back of their head leaning crookedly.

"Tsk!" Han Zhou looked ahead at the family of three, shook his head, lowered his voice, and said to Bai Yuhan, "Lao Bai, I really didn't expect... Hu Mingzhang to come to school today."

Han Zhou rubbed his chin, somewhat sentimental, casting a sympathetic look towards the Hu family ahead. "I remember Hu Mingzhang had excellent academic performance initially, but after awakening his Tamer space, his level was too low... He directly went emo, had an obvious mental abnormality, and his body became abnormal. He hasn't come to school for several months."

Bai Yuhan's gaze halted, and his steps paused.

— [Name: Hu Mingzhang (mentally abnormal)]

— [Race: Human]

— [Tamer space level: F]

— [Description: This person has extremely low potential talent as a Tamer, weak-willed, has shown clear signs of mental abnormalities, and physical abnormalities. It is recommended to go home and rest.]

Bai Yuhan withdrew his gaze and continued walking forward.
