The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 685

Across the park, at the training grounds, the beasts and their trainees were causing quite a scene.

Though, it wasn’t really fair to blame it on the beasts.

Firstly, the Lightning Cerro group had all grown to the size of large dogs, while the Moor Cats were already the size of a mountain lion, weighing well over a hundred kilos after only a week of quality feed and hard training.

The regenerative sprints were doing them all worlds of good, and the physique of even the mage class trainee, Owen, was phenomenal.

But more importantly, the Overlords had joined them to help with the trainees, passing along as much of their knowledge as possible in the few remaining days that they had.

The majority of the team from the Special Forces Cadets was very close to reaching the Awakened Rank, thanks to their beasts, and Nikki the Tiger Monk was already there.

Today, they had gathered over two hundred soldiers who wanted in on the training, and Thor was happy to help them with his barriers as they ran laps up and down the bleachers.

They weren’t Elites, and they would not advance, no matter how much training, but they were rapidly gaining muscle mass and physical stamina that would save countless lives on the battlefield.

The same Red Dragon High Priest that had met Karl after he altered the trial instance had come to watch as well, and assist Tessa in training Joan, their new Acolyte.

It had been agreed that instead of the Seminary Academy, she would go with the old man to the Academy, where he would train her personally, and they would do the duties of the church for the students.

Healing, support spells, guidance. The natural roles of the War Clerics.

"You know, Sister Tessa, the number of skills that these students have already learned is incredibly impressive. Not just from using the points they gained in battle, but the ones that they have learned through hard work.

To think that just a change in teaching methods would make such a large difference." He whispered, not wanting to stroke the ego of the students.

Tessa smiled at her senior. "It’s not just a teaching method, but a teaching skill. Or, rather a group of skills stacked to help them learn, along with a load of high-grade resources for the beasts.

But I had an idea the other night.

You know how the Drake Riders have a huge advantage in combat due to their mounts, even without the system? We should implement the same program on a limited scale.

The Lightning Cerro forces will be essential to the defence of soldiers and Elites, but if we had a group of Gryphons or Manticores, we would have flying scouts with high ranked combat potential as well."
