4 Chapter 4: Coldjade Snake
Translator: 549690339
Water Mountain Breeding Base, for the convenience of breeding and cultivating different pets, has used Arcane Force and technology to create various environmental areas such as mountains, plains, deserts, lakes, snow mountains, volcanoes, and more.

At this moment, in the sky of the snow mountain area, those snowflakes looked like small flowers made of fleece. With a gust of wind, they seemed like white butterflies dancing gracefully.

David Jones was trudging through the fine snow, leaving footprints behind with every step, as he labored forward, finally arriving at a valley.

In the snowy valley, there were three snow-white serpents coiled there, resting. Under the bright sunlight and falling snowflakes, their scales occasionally emitted faint rainbow-like glimmers.

On their heads, there were two translucent ice crystals. Their big watery eyes and slender bodies made them even more adorable and understandable why they would be called Jade Serpents.action

Not far from the Coldjade Snakes, a student wearing a Waterland High School uniform was sitting languidly. He probably just failed a contract and suffered backlash, his face looking somewhat pale.

His face still carried some unwillingness, and he sat disheartened in the snow, his gaze fixed on the Coldjade Snake.

The small Coldjade Snake, impatient, opened its eyes and left its resting place, leisurely crawling towards a corner of the snowy ground. Apparently, the disturbance caused by humans annoyed it.

“Species Skill”: Cold Breath, Ice Thorn, Ice Armor, Ice Concealment, Infatuation

“Profile”: A Superior snake species living in snowy mountain areas, exceptional in appearance, extremely fast, and proud. The initial contract success rate is extremely low for those without awakened psychic talents. It will ignore commands from owners with Psychic Power lower than its own, skilled at using Infatuation and freezing prey with Cold Breath.

As a Purple Superior, the potential of the Coldjade Snake was also outstanding among Superior pets.

It should be noted that most pets can only evolve one major level, but it has a difficult evolutionary path, able to skip over the Elite level, evolving into a Green Commander [Coldjade Python].

But with the arrogant nature of the Coldjade Snake, attempting to contract it as an initial pet is too difficult. However, in the face of such a powerful pet, some people always think they are the exception.

After all, this might be an ordinary Trainer’s closest opportunity to a Commander-level pet in their lifetime!

Not many people would miss such a rare pet, but the queue at the door was too large, beyond David Jones’ imagination.

He estimated that it would take at least half an hour to contract, and David Jones sighed lightly as he looked at the long queue surrounding the valley.

Then he went to the end of the line and started waiting, while continuing to observe the contract situation within the snow valley.

The staff at the base called out unhurriedly, “Next.”

David Jones followed the orderly flow of people and, as expected, the students in front of him all failed the contract one after another.

Even the students behind David Jones began to nervously discuss among themselves.

“No way, already dozens of them, and not a single successful contract. Even though we knew the chances were low, it’s just a baby, is it really this hard to contract?”

“Dozens is a small number. The total number of seniors and juniors from the previous six years is several hundred, and all of them failed. It was a complete wipeout.”

Listening to the whispers of the surrounding students and watching many people failing one after another, David Jones couldn’t help but feel nervous, even though he was still confident.

He took a deep breath and looked away, only to inadvertently lock eyes with a girl in front of him who had turned around.

She was wearing a Waterland High School uniform, had a baby-faced appearance, with black hair cascading down her shoulders, beneath a pair of bright, lively eyes was a fair, delicate face, which looked exceptionally attractive in David’s eyes.

“Hello.” David Jones smiled awkwardly and subconsciously greeted her.

The girl first pouted her lips, then burst into laughter. She covered her mouth embarrassedly and said shyly, “Hello, classmate. My name is Margaret Yule, and I’m a student of Trainer Class 1 at Waterland High School.”

“I’m David Jones, from Trainer Class 2 of Secondary High School.” David spoke softly.

“You should be prepared to contract with a Coldjade Snake. Are you also here to try your luck?” Margaret Yule asked with a generous smile.

“Yes, but I think your chances of success shouldn’t be low.” David said.

“Ah, do you know me?” Margaret Yule asked in surprise.

“Your reputation precedes you, I’ve heard about you even in my school. You’re a Trainer prodigy from Waterland High School who has awakened the Ice ability to Strengthen Talent [Ice Blessing].”

“It’s not as exaggerated as you make it out to be. I just wanted to give it a try, too. It’s said that even senior Trainers have less than a 50% chance to contract with a Coldjade Snake successfully. I wanted to try my luck.”

“True, with two chances, we can’t help but try.”

“Yeah, it’s a little difficult with just Ice-based talent and without Psychic talent. But the Coldjade Snake is so adorable; I really want one.”

“Yes, even someone like me who’s afraid of snakes likes it. But for us Apprentice Trainers, success relies a lot on luck.” Although David said this modestly, he had a great deal of confidence in his Psychic Power and Dragon-Wielding abilities.

As they were talking, a staff member suddenly spoke to the girl, “Next one.”

“It’s my turn; I’ll give it a try first, and we can talk later.” Margaret Yule whispered.

David nodded.

Margaret took a deep breath, her face a mixture of nervousness and excitement, before walking towards the snowy valley at a leisurely pace.

“Hey, isn’t that Margaret Yule? If even she fails to contract, there might be no one who succeeds in this session.”

“Maybe she can do it. She’s from the Yule family in Waterland and has awakened the Ice-based Strengthen Talent.”

“Yeah, she’s so pretty, she might be able to gain the Coldjade Snake’s favor.”

“… Do you think all pets are as loyal as you, only liking the pretty ones?”

As expected, those with good looks and talent always receive preferential treatment – even the surrounding crowd lined up to watch had high expectations of her.

Inside the valley, Margaret Yule took a jade box from her spatial ring and extracted an Ice-type Magic Core, placing it next to a petite Coldjade Snake hatchling.

The little snake opened its dazed and adorable eyes, slowly coiling its body around the Magic Core before closing its eyes in satisfaction.

Seeing this, Margaret Yule couldn’t help but feel delighted. Unconsciously, she activated her Innate Talent and began establishing a Beast Taming Contract through her Arcane Star.

Margaret continued pouring Psychic Power and Arcane Force into the Arcane Star within her mind, forming a blue, five-pointed star Rune Circle around it.

The blue Rune Circle within the Arcane Star absorbed Psychic Power and Arcane Force continuously, becoming larger and brighter. Radiant light emitted from it, crossing through space and appearing in front of her.

The blue light flew in front of the Coldjade Snake and swirled around it, finally converging into a blue five-pointed star Rune Circle connected to the head of the snake, which was still delightfully absorbing the Magic Core’s Energy.

The Rune Circle occasionally flickered with blue-white light, indicating that the Beast Taming Contract was being formed.

Feeling that the contracting process was going smoother than anticipated, Margaret Yule couldn’t help but let out a smile, her cheeks revealing a pair of sweet dimples.
