同城约单是不是真的

In the heart of this city, there was a luxurious and exquisitely designed villa. Behind the villa stood a small hill, with a clear lake at its base.

The morning sunlight reflected off the lake’s surface, creating shimmering waves, and it seemed like several spirit fish were swimming within.

However, apart from this villa, there were no other buildings surrounding the hill and lake. This was because the hill and lake were part of the villa’s backyard.

It was an unbelievable sight.

In the entire Ten Thousand Spider Nest Secret World, there were only seven large central city bases, which were the foundation of the human race in this world. Bai Lin City, being one of these bases, was an area where every inch of land was extremely valuable. Yet, in the core area of Bai Lin City, such a residence existed, something unimaginable to outsiders. It’s safe to say that whoever owns such a residence must belong to a family of immense wealth and power.

Indeed, this villa was none other than the City Lord’s Mansion of Bai Lin City.

Meanwhile, in a room on the second floor of the villa, a young man of about fourteen or fifteen years old was washing up. As he looked up, the mirror reflected a handsome young face with fair skin, akin to that of a noble young lord.

“Even after seeing it for fifteen years, I have to admit, my appearance in this life seems excessively handsome,” Bai Zian thought to himself with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

Yes, he was not a native of this world but a transmigrator.

In his previous life, he was a soldier who sacrificed himself during a mission.

Unexpectedly, he ended up transmigrating to a world of beast taming.

That’s right, Bai Zian’s current world was one of beast tamers, filled with all sorts of magical spirit beasts and countless beast tamers.

However, his situation seemed more like a reincarnation rather than a soul possession, as he was born from a womb and grew up naturally. Bai Zian has no significant difference from the original inhabitants of this world, except that he retained the memories of his past life.

Could it be that he forgot to drink Meng Po’s soup* on the path of reincarnation?

[Meng Po (孟婆): Meng Po is a deity in Chinese mythology who serves soup to souls before they reincarnate, making them forget their past lives.]

Ahem, whether or not he encountered Meng Po, he was unsure. However, because of his past life as a soldier, Bai Zian found it somewhat uncomfortable to be reborn with such a top-tier appearance.

Splash~

A sound of flowing water came from afar.

Simultaneously, a long, silver ribbon-like figure floated in the air, coming before Bai Zian. It was a spirit fish with a slender body, about three meters long. Its red eyes emitted a faint golden light, and silver stripes adorned its body, giving it an extraordinary appearance. Moreover, there was a stream of water beneath the spirit fish, allowing it to float in the air as if it were swimming in water.

“Yin~ Yin~~”

Xiao An, time for breakfast~~

“I know, Red-Eyed Silver-Stripped Fish. Please inform my father that I will come down after I finish washing up,” Bai Zian replied with a faint smile.

Although the spirit fish’s voice wasn’t human, Bai Zian seemed to understand it perfectly and spoke to it accordingly. This mystical spirit fish was none other than his father’s life-bound spirit pet, the Red-Eyed Silver-Stripped Fish.

Although not particularly large, the Red-Eyed Silver-Stripped Fish was a golden-level pet beast and was considered a formidable being.

After finishing his morning routine, Bai Zian headed to the dining room on the first floor.

The servants had already prepared breakfast, which was arranged on the dining table, exuding a mouthwatering aroma. Seated around the table were a middle-aged couple and a girl about ten years old, all enjoying breakfast together harmoniously. They were Bai Zian’s parents and younger sister.

At the same time, Bai Zian noticed an imposing old man seated at the head of the table. The old man had a head of white hair but looked as though he was in his fifties or sixties.

Of course, this was only his appearance.

Those familiar with the old man knew that his actual age far exceeded this. The old man had presided over this city for fifty years, exuding an air of authority that made it clear he was someone accustomed to wielding great power.

“Grandpa, when did you arrive? Aren’t you busy with work?” Bai Zian asked with a smile as he approached the dignified old man, his grandfather, Bai Jingchong.

Bai Jingchong was the renowned City Lord of Bai Lin City, one of the seven strongest individuals in the Ten Thousand Spider Nest Secret World, a diamond-level beast tamer who had protected Bai Lin City for fifty years.

In the entire Bai Lin City, Bai Jingchong was the most powerful existence, standing on par with the other six city lords. Bai Zian’s beginning in this life could be considered a heavenly start, born into an exceptionally powerful family.

To be honest, as a transmigrator, Bai Zian not only had an astonishing background, belonging to a wealthy and powerful family, but he also had a harmonious family life.

His parents were alive and well, and his grandfather was one of the strongest individuals in the world. Such a beginning was simply unimaginable.

Bai Zian couldn’t help but wonder if he was the protagonist. Could such a powerful background and harmonious family really belong to a protagonist? Or perhaps, he wasn’t the protagonist after all?

Bai Zian always harbored this doubt.

However, as the City Lord of Bai Lin City, Bai Jingchong was usually very busy and rarely returned to the City Lord’s Mansion. Therefore, Bai Zian was a little surprised by his grandfather’s presence.

“Today is the annual awakening ceremony, and as the city lord, I need to give a speech at the event to encourage the students.”

“Grandpa remembers that you, Xiao An, are a middle school graduate this year, so you’ll need to participate in the awakening ceremony too.”

“Perfect timing, we can head to the awakening hall together later,” Bai Jingchong said with a smile, showing a rare expression of warmth on his usually stern face as he spoke to Bai Zian.

The Awakening Ceremony, formally known as the [Annual Beast Taming Talent Awakening Ceremony of Jiuzhou Federation] was a national event held each year to help middle school graduates awaken their beast-taming talents.

Those who successfully awaken their talents can apply to beast-taming high schools to learn various knowledge related to beast taming. If they fail, they will have to attend a regular high school instead.

It was a crucial moment that could determines one’s future.

However, as a middle school graduate, Bai Zian remained calm because he had already awakened his beast-taming talent a month earlier.

This was inevitable. Although it was difficult to awaken beast-taming talent on one’s own, Bai Zian, as a descendant of Bai Jingchong, a diamond-level beast tamer, possessed the bloodline of a beast tamer, making it not particularly difficult for him to awaken.

Thus, even before the awakening ceremony, Bai Zian had already awakened his talent. As for the talent he awakened, it was an impressive one: an A-rank talent known as [Intuition].
