Most of the people on the leaderboard were descendants of large families and had unlimited resources. Ye Mei Er was able to succeed despite the lack of resources. Obviously, it was not easy.

Even though Ye Mei Er had achieved so much, she was not the apple of Ye Gan's eyes.

Ye Gan was more fond of Luo Chen. 

Luo Chen had received all of his love ever since he was young. All of the family's resources were spent on him. Needless to say, Ye Gan was very biased.

With his duplication ability, resources would not be an issue. Luo Chen wondered what Ye Mei Er could achieve if he gave her a huge amount of resources.

Anyway, Luo Chen bit his finger and dripped his blood on the egg. The egg immediately absorbed it. His spiritual power was continuously seeped by the egg. Even though Luo Chen had two lifetimes of spiritual power, it still made him feel a little dizzy.

"Why is it not working?"

If Luo Chen did not have enough spiritual power, he would not be able to bond with the eggs. Furthermore, the scene might make him look like a fool.

High-quality pet eggs required more spiritual power than normal. Therefore, summoners with low aptitude would not be able to form a bond with them. There were a lot of elixirs that could recover one's spiritual power in this continent. The descendants of powerful families used those to bond with their pets.

Luo Chen's sister had definitely given him a high-quality pet egg.

The thought made him happy.

He was already at emperor level in terms of aptitude. Even so, he could not handle this egg. It was easy to tell its grade.

Summoned beasts had different forms and types. They were also divided into five grades. Low, medium, high, saint, and divine.

Judging from the current situation, this pet was definitely at least a high-level summoned beast. 

Luo Chen was extremely excited.

As time passed by, Luo Chen's face turned pale. Ye Gan was also very anxious.

Just as Luo Chen was about to faint from the dizziness, the eggshell cracked.

The sight immediately made him feel rejuvenated.

As the eggshell continued to crack, rays of white light shot out.

It blinded both Luo Chen and Ye Gan.

Finally, a round head could be seen coming out from the eggs. The little beast had white claws that it used to poke the eggshell.

The hole grew bigger and bigger until the little beast was freed at last. 

It was white in color and a little chubby. The little beast blinked its eyes. 

Luo Cheng thought it looked very cute and was enamored.

"No way, it's a white tiger! How did Mei Er get her hands on something like this?!"

However, Ye Gan was not delighted at all. Instead, he was worried.

The tiger was the king of the forest and the lion ruled over the grassland. Meanwhile, the eagle was the overlord of the sky. These three beasts were in the strongest class. Furthermore, the white tiger was outstanding compared to other tigers. It was ranked at the top even among the divine pets.

Luo Chen was dumbstruck. He searched the memory of the host. This was definitely a divine pet, one of the most powerful. Divine pets were extremely rare. Even among the leaderboards, Luo Chen did not see anyone that had a divine pet. He did not know if a divine pet even existed in this country.

"Seriously, where did Mei Er get this egg from? She does not have the strength or money."

This was the root of Ye Gan's worries.

The little white tiger was still in a daze. It stumbled and ran towards Luo Chen.

Luo Chen was afraid that the little beast might hurt itself, so he quickly carried it in his arms.

The little white tiger raised its head and licked Luo Chen's face.

"It's too small. I doubt it has any combat power at the moment."

Luo Chen said affectionately, "I'll name you Xiao Bao."

Just as Luo Chen finished speaking, the summoning scripture emitted a burst of white light. The book flipped open by itself. An image of a white tiger floated into the air. It looked exactly like Xiao Bao.

Below the picture was Xiao Bao's attributes.

Beast Type: White tiger (Divine pet)

Gender: Female

Attributes: Ground

Level: 0

Type: Beast

Habitat: Land

Direction: Vanguard

...

Luo Chen was rather shocked. He picked up the book and flipped through it. There were only six pages. The first page had his information while the second page had Xiao Bao's details. As for the rest of the pages, they were blank.

"Only four pages left? That's too little. Dad, can you increase the number of pages in this book?"

"Just upgrade the summoning scripture. Currently, you have the bronze summoning scripture. I think you'll have enough once you upgrade to silver. If you still feel that it's inadequate, you can upgrade it to gold. You'll need to attend an academy in order to learn how to upgrade the summoning scripture."

"Dad, do you want me to attend an academy?"

Luo Chen saw through his father's thoughts.

"Those who are able to merge with a summoning scripture must enroll in an academy to learn. This is the rule of this country. However, there are no academies in Sky City. You must travel to a big city. I'll give you this map. Take a look and decide where you want to go."

Ye Gan spread a map over the table. 

The map showed the densely packed cities.

Big cities were divided into small cities. There were also main cities and imperial cities. Luo Chen's sister was in one of the main cities.

"I want to attend the same academy as my sister!"

Luo Chen said without any hesitation.

"That is not allowed. Your sister is currently in an intermediate academy and you're just a beginner. Sigh, your sister is always leveling up and her tuition fees kept getting more expensive."

Ye Gan complained.

His words filled Luo Chen with resentment. 

'How could he say something like this about his own daughter?'

"Then, I want to go to Sky Fire City. It's the closest to where Mei Er is living," said Luo Chen as he pointed to a dot on the map.

"Alright, you can head there tomorrow. Take this staff along with half of our family's resources!"

Ye Gan took off a ring that he was wearing on his finger and placed it on Luo Chen's palm.

Luo Chen nodded. He knew what this item was based on the host's memories. It was a space ring. The alternate dimension within the ring could be used to store items. Clearly, the ring was a priceless treasure.
