Beast Taming: My System is Bugged

Tang Tianyi, watching the scene unfold, had a gratified smile on his face.

He clapped his hands and said,

"Alright, the test results are excellent.

"Gu Ming, you can now put the final period on your research paper for the ’Ghost Attachment Attack’ Skill optimization plan.

"Go ahead and complete the Great Dao authentication right here at the company."

Gu Ming nodded and called out, "Mo Ying, come here."

Hearing his voice, the Ghost Kitten instantly transformed into a streak of ghostly light and shot back to Gu Ming’s side, affectionately rubbing against his pant leg.

Gu Ming held the thick Great Dao Gold Paper flat in front of him. With a solemn expression, he began to recite the formal title of his paper and, dipping his pen in Talismanic Ink, drew the final period.

Mo Ying also tilted its head back and let out a long, ethereal meow, as if resonating with the moment.

"MEOW—"

As Gu Ming’s final syllable fell, the tip of the pen left the paper. The period dried and set, locking the Great Dao within the paper into place.

All the text on the Great Dao Gold Paper suddenly erupted in a brilliant, dazzling golden radiance!

The entire sheet of paper seemed to have been injected with life. It became as heavy as a mountain and emanated a vast and mighty pressure.

「At the same time.」

Above the Cultivation Method Research and Development Company’s building, the winds and clouds stirred subtly. The Hall of the Great Dao parted the clouds and descended from on high.

A condensed and pure beam of Great Dao Holy Light pierced through layers of Space, landing precisely on the floor where Tang Tianyi’s office was located!

Bathed in the Holy Light, the research paper completed its final authentication.

「Outside the office.」

The employees on the entire floor were startled by the sudden commotion. They all looked toward Teacher Tang’s office, their faces filled with surprise and curiosity.

The company’s internal information system also immediately detected this powerful Great Dao fluctuation, and department heads all perceived the extraordinary event.

"It’s coming from Tang Tianyi’s direction! Another major breakthrough has been made!"

"The intensity of this Great Dao Holy Light... it’s extraordinary!"

The security guard at the building’s entrance looked up at the fading afterglow of the Holy Light. He carefully identified the colors within the halo and muttered,

"One color, two colors, three colors, four colors! It’s a Four-Colored authentication!"

A Four-Colored Great Dao authentication!

Within a corporate group whose core business was Cultivation Technique R&D, this was considered an extremely significant achievement, enough to be listed as a key promotional project for the year.

This meant that not only would Gu Ming receive a huge bonus amounting to tens of millions,

but more importantly, he would be entitled to a continuous share of the sales generated from the skill’s subsequent commercialization.

This would provide stable and powerful financial support for Gu Ming’s future research.

However, for the Gu Ming who had returned from his explorations, paper money was no longer of any use to him.

Gu Ming was more interested in the company’s internal exchange list for special resources.

Of course, the company’s reward was still somewhat useful.

For instance, a notification from the system reminded him:

[You have completed the development of a Combat Technique assigned by the Hidden Sect. You have taken a solid step on Old Deng’s Path. Reward: 10 Achievement Points!]

[You have received a huge Spirit Stone reward from the Sect: 40,000 Spirit Stones. The Spirit Stones will be distributed by a Sect Elder.]

’Spirit Stones.’

’The Spirit Stones I’ve been longing for. This is the perfect chance to restock from the Sect.’

However, he didn’t have the Spirit Stones in hand yet; he still had to wait for someone to distribute them.

Gu Ming was a little worried it might get held up, so he asked, "Teacher, when will the monetary reward be issued?"

Compared to money, High-star Beastmasters preferred special resources that couldn’t be bought even with wealth.

Gu Ming’s question left Teacher Tang speechless.

"Normally, it would be transferred to you around the middle of next month, after the finance department’s monthly closing."

"But if you’re in a hurry, I can have the finance department process the payment and transfer it to you right now."

Teacher Tang had the authority and decisiveness to make such a statement.

After all, Gu Ming had independently completed a Combat Skill that earned a Four-Colored Holy Light authentication while on the job.

This achievement was enough for him to firmly establish himself within the company and win widespread recognition and respect.

It should be known that the Cultivation Method Company’s High Tier Combat Skills were no ordinary things; each one was the culmination of immense effort and ingenuity.

A single Four-star Level Combat Skill was already qualified to be promoted as one of the company’s main projects, enjoying top-tier resource allocation.

As for the bonus, in the eyes of a behemoth like the Capital Cultivation Method Company, it truly wasn’t a huge sum.

However, Gu Ming nodded at him earnestly, his expression suggesting he was in desperate need of the money.

Tang Tianyi knew full well that Gu Ming had reaped significant rewards after returning from the Yichuan Ruins and had also exchanged resources with several senior professors. Logically, he shouldn’t be short on money.

But he didn’t press the issue. Since his student had asked, he must have his reasons. For a top talent like him, it was best to simply fulfill his request.

With this in mind, Tang Tianyi took out his phone and called the finance department right in front of Gu Ming.

In less than two minutes, Gu Ming’s phone chimed with a notification of a successful transfer.

However, Gu Ming’s expression changed slightly.

He suddenly remembered that what he needed wasn’t electronic currency, but physical paper money!

’The money’s already been transferred to my bank account. What do I do now?’

’Can I exchange it for cash at a bank?’

He instantly started to worry.

He had tried before; it was impossible to withdraw the "future Spirit Stones" that the system required through banking channels.

Only by obtaining cash from individuals with special status, as recorded by the system, could the conversion take place.

Left with no other choice, Gu Ming had to brace himself and speak up:

"Teacher, I... I need it in cash right now, if possible? I mean, paper bills."

Teacher Tang was stunned for a moment, but then he came to a realization.

He recalled that in Gu Ming’s personal file, Miss Ruan Jing had mentioned that Gu Ming had a peculiar habit.

He disliked electronic transfers and preferred cash in red envelopes.

He had dismissed this tidbit as a minor quirk on the file at the time and paid it no mind, but now it came back to him clearly.

"That’s quite a unique preference you have."

Tang Tianyi smiled helplessly. "But, it’s a small matter. I’ll take care of it."

As he spoke, a faint light flashed at his fingertips, and he pulled a thick stack of large red envelopes directly from his Beast Taming Space.

Although Beastmasters were generally used to electronic payments, they always kept some cash on hand just in case.

"No need to transfer the money back to me.

"This is a personal bonus from me to you. It has nothing to do with the company."

Tang Tianyi handed the large red envelopes over.

Gu Ming didn’t count the money, nor did he open the envelopes.

In fact, the moment he saw the red envelopes, he was ecstatic.

’The Teacher really understands me.’

He accepted them with both hands and thanked him sincerely, "I understand, thank you, Teacher!"

[You have received the 40,000 Spirit Stones from the Sect, distributed by Elder Tang.]

Seeing this notification, the great weight in Gu Ming’s heart was lifted.

Tang Tianyi nodded, his gaze then turning to the other star of this "teaching" session.

Ah Ji, who had already transformed into its Profound Celestial Beast Ghost Soul form and was clad in Purple-Black Ghost Armor.

Almost at the same time, Teacher Tang also tapped his Beast Taming Space and summoned his own bona fide Profound Celestial Beast Ghost Soul.

The two Pet Beasts’ gazes met abruptly.
