Master of Monster Synthesis-Chapter 77 Beast Breeding Laboratory

"What?! The first-place reward for this year’s Three Schools Trial is actually the Manda Mutant Gene?"

Seeing Qin Shou’s shocked expression, Yu Shusheng waved dismissively and chuckled, "Calm down, calm down."

Hearing this, Qin Shou’s astonished face instantly turned calm.

"Oh, Principal, am I calm enough now?"

Yu Shusheng: "..."

What a nutcase!

"Ahem, Qin Shou, I must say, I was really surprised that you earned a spot in the Three Schools Trial this time. I didn’t expect you to improve so quickly. Looks like I wasn’t wrong about you before."

Yu Shusheng suddenly shifted the topic.

Qin Shou gave him a strange look. So what you’re saying is, back then when you said I had a shot at getting a spot, you were just bluffing?

Anyway, considering the Dragon Beast Gene is involved, I’ll let it slide this time.

"Principal, I heard that advancing to the Newborn Nine Stars usually comes with school rewards. Now that I’ve secured a trial spot, shouldn’t I get some goodies as well?"

Qin Shou didn’t bother with pleasantries and asked directly.

Yu Shusheng’s expression didn’t change, "Qin Shou, you’ve advanced to the Newborn Nine Stars?"

"Not yet."

"Haha, Qin Shou, the school rules state that rewards are only given to students who reach the Newborn Nine Stars.

Even though I’m the principal, I can’t just disregard the rules to hand out rewards prematurely."

Yu Shusheng clasped his hands behind his back, silently laughing to himself. Let’s see if this kid finally tries to butter me up now.

Hearing Yu Shusheng’s words, Qin Shou subtly curled his lips.

"Principal, I haven’t reached the Newborn Nine Stars yet, but I can already beat Wang Zha to a pulp. If you help me out, once I do advance, isn’t the first place in the Three Schools Trial practically guaranteed?

Me taking first place would reflect positively on you, no?" freewebnøvel.com

"Uh..."

Yu Shusheng froze. He made a surprisingly good point.

"Ahem, fine, fine. After all, you’re a student I believe in. For you, I’ll make an exception this time. Come with me!"

Yu Shusheng said this while turning to lead Qin Shou toward the Beast Breeding Laboratory.

"Thank you, Principal."

"Don’t mention it. You’ve earned it."

...

Beast Breeding Laboratory.

Qin Shou wasn’t visiting the lab for the first time. He was already accustomed to the various sophisticated instruments used to cultivate monsters inside the lab.

From small devices like gene testing instruments to large tools like monster embryo cultivation tanks, Qin Shou had used them countless times.

Speaking of monster cultivation, it all starts with gene testing.

Only through gene testing can Beast Tamers determine the compatibility and fusion potential between different monster genes.

After conducting a series of experiments and explorations, Beast Tamers typically choose the few monster genes with the highest compatibility, extract fragments, and merge them to create a new species to some extent.

Once a monster embryo is cultivated, Beast Tamers then use a cultivation tank to accelerate its early growth, allowing the beast to quickly leave its juvenile stage and reach maturity.

This process is not only complicated but also has a very low success rate.

For ordinary students like Qin Shou from the Breeding Beast System, they can typically only fuse two similar monster genes to create their own beast, with a success rate of a measly 10%.

Exceptionally talented students can even fuse more than five monster genes at once to develop stronger beasts, with significantly higher success rates.

However, using more monster genes doesn’t necessarily mean a stronger beast.

During the beast’s growth process, multiple genes in its body may clash and mutate unexpectedly, leading to a sudden drop in power, or worse, a frenzy or revolt against its owner.

Because of this, most students in the Breeding Beast System tend to cautiously fuse only two to three monster genes to create their beasts—not too many, not too few, just right.

If they obtain certain powerful monster genes, sometimes just cloning those is enough to produce a strong beast without worrying about gene conflict.

Take Qin Shou’s Colorful Giant Python, for instance—it was the result of a mutation during his eighteenth cultivation attempt, where Black Forest Giant Python genes clashed with Chameleon genes.

Originally, he had intended to cultivate a killer python with exceptional stealth, capable of staying still when unnoticed but striking lethally like a swift arrow when in action.

But what he never saw coming was the result—a brightly colored, girly-style giant python, completely out of his expectations.

This isn’t the big snake I wanted!

Nevertheless, it was a success, and he reluctantly kept it.

However, because of genetic defects, the python consumed much more food than ordinary giant pythons, earning the name "greedy snake."

Looking back now, Qin Shou’s talent for breeding beasts is really hard to describe.

Beast cultivation is one of those things—you either get it or you don’t. Effort alone doesn’t seem to do much.

Looking at the beast breeding instruments, Qin Shou couldn’t help but daze out.

Yu Shusheng saw this and couldn’t stop himself from laughing, "Qin Shou, what’s wrong? Thinking back to the tough times of cultivating your Dragon Beast?"

Dragon Beasts, being so complex, require even the most gifted Beast Tamers to expend significant effort and time.

From his perspective, Qin Shou must have gone through a lot to cultivate his Dragon Beast.

But what Yu Shusheng didn’t know was that Qin Shou’s Dragon Beast wasn’t developed in the school’s lab at all.

The school’s Beast Breeding Laboratory is exclusively available to students, and even as principal, he wouldn’t have access to details of what monsters students had created.

Besides, Beast Breeding Laboratories aren’t exclusive to schools—regular beast breeding companies also provide labs.

If money isn’t an issue, one can even purchase powerful monster embryos outright.

Knowing this, Qin Shou boldly showcased his Dragon Beast.

Snapping back to reality, Qin Shou shook his head with a smile, "Nothing, I was just spaced out.

By the way, Principal, why did you bring me here?"

Yu Shusheng smiled and said, "Here’s the deal—when students advance to Newborn Nine Stars, I usually personally guide them in cultivating monsters.

Xu Ke’s Six-winged Centipede was successfully cultivated under my mentorship, its potential rivaling my own Six-winged Centipede.

Of course, that’s one of your rewards too."

Hearing this, Qin Shou felt a bit guilty.

Guide me in monster cultivation?

What do I do? I only know how to cheat—I’ve got no idea how to actually breed Dragon Beasts!

If he finds out I’m a fraud, he’ll definitely have other thoughts, turning this into a needless hassle.

Thinking this, Qin Shou casually shook his head and said, "Principal, let’s talk about this later.

How about telling me about the other rewards first?"

Yu Shusheng’s face darkened. This kid doesn’t respect my expertise in beast cultivation—so rude!

But then he recalled that humanoid Killing Wolf and felt a bit deflated internally.

Alright, my plan to learn this kid’s gene technology under the guise of tutoring has failed. I’ll have to find another opportunity later.

"Ahem, very well. Qin Shou, follow me."

With that, Yu Shusheng led Qin Shou into a spacious room and pointed to a giant cultivation tank inside.

"Your second reward: the Beast Cultivation Liquid from my personal collection!"
