Innate Divine Ability:

“Reversal Puppet Veil”: It nourishes inferior puppet bodies, which can impose restrictions on the enemy’s environment and transform effects targeted at oneself into weakening effects on the enemy. When an inferior puppet body is shattered by the opponent, a disintegration effect is triggered, decomposing the target within the puppet body.

Following his investigation, Fang Mu understood why Hu Tao exhibited such an expression when talking about the exclusive trait obtained from the Bird Armor Puppet.

The exclusive trait that the Bird Armor Puppet gains upon ascending to Perfect Quality is called “Puppet Metallurgy Vein,” which allows it to absorb various metal spiritual materials to strengthen its own puppet body.

The characteristics and performance contained in these metal spiritual materials will influence the future abilities of the Bird Armor Puppet.

This meant that Hu Tao could subjectively modify the capabilities of the Bird Armor Puppet through this exclusive trait, shaping it into the form that best suited her needs.

Based solely on its ability to guide its own evolution, “Puppet Metallurgy Vein” can be regarded as a basic level skill.

Moreover, the act of enhancing itself by devouring metal spiritual materials offers significant operational flexibility.

Different metal spiritual materials have varying performances, and some of the rare ones enrich the functionality of the Bird Armor Puppet in combat.

It can be said that the Bird Armor Puppet has also become a significant consumer of resources, and Hu Tao’s family would find it difficult to acquire a large quantity of rare metal spiritual materials to cultivate the Bird Armor Puppet in the optimum direction.

Even if a family is willing to devote resources to their children, aiding them in nurturing Guardian Beasts to bolster their strength, there will be differences in the allocation of resources, making it hard to achieve comprehensiveness.

There is only so much money, and if it is spent on comprehending mysterious patterns in the Contemplation Hall, it is bound to be unavailable for purchasing beast-controlling spirit materials.

Hu Tao’s dilemma was something Fang Qin, Fang Yuan, and Yan Wood had also experienced.

Hu Tao knew well the benefits that this exclusive trait could bring her, yet she could only sigh helplessly.

Fang Mu had a certain understanding of the Bird Armor Puppet.

But now, after visualization of the abilities of the Bird Armor Puppet, Fang Mu realized his previous understanding was insufficient.

The data-driven abilities made Fang Mu someone who might know the Bird Armor Puppet even better than Hu Tao did.

The Copper Level and Silver Stage skills of the Bird Armor Puppet, “Perfect Pentad Dance” and “Performative Decapitation Dance,” are both abilities that amplify Guardian Beasts and provide offensive measures against the enemy.

Fang Mu believed that the core ability of “Perfect Pentad Dance” isn’t to give Bird Beasts physical, elemental, and curse defenses.

In a battle, it is very unlikely for an enemy Guardian Beast to cover all bases with its abilities.

In a one-to-many situation, defenses on three levels can actually take effect.

The core enhancement method of the Bird Armor Puppet is to provide energy and two life-saving effects for Bird Beasts.

The energy provided by the Bird Armor Puppet to Hu Tao’s Iron Winged Green Pigeon tripled its combat duration.

This was the key factor for Hu Tao to achieve first place in practical combat at Janghai Sky Domain University.

The two life-saving effects increased the margin of error in Hu Tao’s combat system, allowing her to be bold in battles.

Although triggering the two life-saving effects would put the Bird Armor Puppet into a dormant state,

It could still repair itself through mechanical gears.

This made Fang Mu feel that Hu Tao was very suitable for a contract with a Guardian Beast that coexisted as both bird and mechanical types.

Most mechanical beasts possess the ability to produce mechanical gears on their own.

This bird and mechanical dual-type beast could synergize with Hu Tao’s main battle Mystic Beast, the Iron Winged Green Pigeon, to provide an auxiliary effect.

Mechanical Beasts are already rare, and such special dual-type beasts can only be found through deliberate searching.

Mobius’s skill “Creation of Blood and Life” is incapable of creating mechanical beasts.

Otherwise, Fang Mu could have relied on “Creation of Blood and Life” to create such a Guardian Beast for Hu Tao.

“Performative Decapitation Dance” allows the Bird Armor Puppet to penetrate the enemy’s weaknesses and absorb their defensive capabilities.

It then bestows this defense onto the Guardian Beast it possesses.

This provided Hu Tao with the capacity to remain undefeated among Copper Level Beast Masters.

Many senior students at Jinghai High School for Beast Masters couldn’t defeat Hu Tao.

After a few confrontations with Hu Tao, these older scholars were no longer willing to spar with her.

It was because of Hu Tao’s Destiny Guardian Beast, the Bird Armor Puppet, and its Innate Divine Ability, “Reversal Puppet Veil.”

“The Reversal Puppet Veil” allows the Bird Armor Puppet, through its own created Inferior Puppet Body, to restrict the enemy.

Under its own enhancement and the enemy’s restriction, it can widen the gap significantly between two evenly matched sides.

Moreover, those Inferior Puppet Bodies possess a one-for-one extreme capability when they disassemble.

Even if the Guardian Beast wrapped by the Inferior Puppet Body has extremely strong life-saving skills and doesn’t get exchanged, it will definitely be injured.

Hu Tao saw Fang Mu examining her Bird Armor Puppet with earnest attention. Thinking that Fang Mu had only recently become a Grandmaster Disciple and was not yet a true Creator,

she decided to explain the abilities of her Destiny Guardian Beast to him.

Just then, Hu Tao heard Fang Mu say to her very seriously,

“Hu Tao, your Destiny Guardian Beast, the Bird Armor Puppet, has the potential to make you one of the top young prodigies.”

“When I say top young prodigies, I mean not just in the Dragon Rising Federation, but in the entire world!”

Hu Tao’s breathing hitched upon hearing Fang Mu’s words, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

Hu Tao had long since been aware of Fang Mu’s identity as a Grandmaster Disciple.

Fang Mu had protected Jinghai High School for Beast Masters, and Hu Tao had returned with him to the villa in the mountains.

In a sense, they had been through life and death together.

However, Hu Tao had never been opportunistic in her attitude toward Fang Mu, always maintaining her original enthusiastic heart.

This made her attitude toward Fang Mu the same as it had been before.

After learning about the exclusive trait that her Bird Armor Puppet had gained upon reaching Perfect Quality, Hu Tao felt more helplessness than joy in her heart.

It’s said that a child from a poor family must take on responsibilities early, but Hu Tao, who hadn’t been brought up in poverty, understood one thing very well.

And that was that she couldn’t afford the exclusive trait of her Bird Armor Puppet.

Hu Tao had estimated the value of her Bird Armor Puppet’s exclusive trait as high as possible but hadn’t imagined it to be as grand as what Fang Mu thought.

Fang Mu even said that with the exclusive trait of her Bird Armor Puppet, the “Puppet Metallurgy Vein,” she had the chance to stand at the pinnacle among the younger generation in the world, which was beyond Hu Tao’s imagination.

However, knowing Fang Mu as she did, Hu Tao was aware that he was not one to boast or exaggerate.

This made the regret in Hu Tao’s heart grow even more.

At that moment, Hu Tao heard Fang Mu continue.

“Tao, from now on, I’ll provide you with the resources for becoming a Beast Master,” he said.

“Be my teammate, also the vice-captain of our future team.”

“I wouldn’t be at ease with someone else as our team’s vice-captain.”

Hu Tao knew about Fang Mu’s aspiration to be a Beast Master the moment she found out he had become one, as he had spoken to her about his plans before.

The individual competition of the High School Beast Tamer Alliance was never Fang Mu’s true goal.

His real ambition was on the Janghai Sky Domain University’s world collegiate professional league.

Competing in this world collegiate professional league required gathering a five-person team.

Hu Tao was delighted by Fang Mu’s trust in her and was very willing to stand with him at the pinnacle.

But she doubted her own strength considerably.

After all, Hu Tao was still a high school student who had never left campus.

Seeing the expression on Hu Tao’s face, Fang Mu stretched out his hand and patted her shoulder.

“I originally went to the goods exhibition held by the nearby merchants’ association to buy some precious Metal Spiritual Materials for your Bird Armor Puppet to tailor a new diet.”

“If you let your Bird Armor Puppet absorb those Metal Spiritual Materials according to the new diet I have created, I will help you enhance the Iron Winged Green Pigeon.”

“Take your enhanced Bird Armor Puppet and Iron Winged Green Pigeon to fight in the Battle Network rankings and see how far your strength can evolve from its original basis!”

“Then I’ll help you find a Bird/Mechanical Beasts dual-type Guardian Beast to contract with.”

“In the short term, two contracted Guardian Beasts paired with your Destiny Guardian Beast will be enough for you to use!”
