《From Fish to Dragon》Chapter 6 Old Man Kong Bo
Advertisement
Wang Tao's father cut to the chase and said "So, you two wanted to see me. What for?". Wang Tao stood up without saying anything and directly called his Blackgold Python Tiger out not far away from where he sat.
Woosh*
With a flash of green light, a large 3-meter long tiger appears next to the three sitting down. Wang Tao's father turned to look at his son's newly evolved tiger and jumped. "Tao er, wha... What happened?.."
Wang Tao smirked as he saw his shocked father before saying with pride, "Not only did boss discover a new evolution branch, he also increased its grade from Uncommon to Rare!"
Once again, Wang Tao's father was shocked, he staggered as he approached the Python Tiger and patted its back as he looked at its body. Turning around to face his son and Ye Qin, Wang Tao's father asked "Ye Qin… you? Do your parents? Wait no! I should introduce you to a friend of mine. He will probably give you a breeder's license after seeing this."
He then got on his phone and made a call personally. After making the call, Wang Tao's father asked Ye Qin, "Nephew Ye, how did you?". As if he had already anticipated the question, Ye Qin replied promptly "Well, I was reading a book as per usual, suddenly I felt a flash of inspiration as if I had been enlightened."
Holding his chin, Wang Tao's father frowned slightly before saying "I see, I see, you have the makings of a great Monster Breeder."
The Blackgold Python Tiger lied down and had a nap as it awaited further orders as Wang Tao's father continued asking questions as they waited for the arrival of an old friend.
….
Knock. Knock.
Wang Tao's father opened the door as an old man who seemed to be in his late 60's whilst wearing a yellow t-shirt and shorts with a flower pattern enters the room. Though the man is old, he seemed full of energy and vigor and had the body of a military man, one could only tell he is old due to his grey hair and eyebrows and a few wrinkles here and there.

Before anyone could say anything, the old man turned and looked at the Blackgold Python Tiger lying near the door and stuttered saying "Thi.. this... Who? How? When?"
Wang Tao couldn't hold in his laughter as he saw another shocked expression, his father got up and explained the situation to the old man as he faced Ye Qin with glistening eyes. The old man walked up to Ye Qin and asked: "Do you want to become my disciple?"
Though he knew it was a possibility, Wang Tao's father is still shocked by the question. Ye Qin, however, asks awkwardly "You are??"
Smacking himself in the forehead the old man introduced himself, "Ah how could I forget basic etiquette? My name's Kong Bo, yes a strange name though I doubt you've ever heard of me. I've retired from the Monster Breeding world however years ago I made a bit of a name for myself. So what do you think?"
Ye Qin paused before replying "I'm sorry, I'll have to decline as I don't plan on becoming a Monster Breeder, but rather, I will fight on the front lines."
"Nephew, you must think this through, Breeder Kong is one of the few Master Rank breeders on the entire planet, if you become his disciple you may become as renowned as him or become even greater than he ever was!" Wang Tao's father interjected.
Through the 1000 years since the beginning of monster taming, the occupation of monster breeding arose just 200 years after that year. Monster Breeders are ranked by their knowledge and through the successful evolution of monsters that their clients bring to them. The Ranks are namely Master, Diamond, Gold, Silver and Bronze rank with no sub ranks.
"Sorry, my answer remains the same, I believe that I do not need a master even if I ever decide to become a Monster Breeder." Ye Qin replied bluntly.

Seeing Ye Qin's stern answer, Kong Bo started asking some questions that might be difficult for some Bronze ranked breeders. The more questions Ye Qin perfectly answered, the harder the questions he asked until some point he asked questions that even he a Master Rank breeder couldn't answer himself.
With each and every answer, Wang Tao and his father's eyes glistened and also hints of confusion could be seen, as they listened intently to the conversation.
Thinking in his head, "Let's see if you use this... And that... To mix it with those... Of course! Brilliant! This kid's knowledge surpasses my own! He should be my master instead!" Kong Bo thought.
As if he knew what Kong Bo thought, Ye Qin said "Sorry I don't accept disciples either." which made Wang Tao almost spit the mouthful of tea he had just drunk.
"How about this, I will bring you to the association and give you a Gold-ranked license? If you have it, your school should let you skip the monster theory classes giving you more time to power up your monster." Kong Bo said.
"Wow! My boss a Gold Ranked Monster Breeder at just 18 years old? No one will be able to say anything about you anymore!" Wang Tao said excitedly as if he were the one receiving it.
Ye Qin thought "That sounds like a good idea…", he then asked "Would it be alright though? Would the association just give a high ranking license to a high schooler? Without even taking any tests?"
"Hahaha, you're underestimating me, if I recommend you myself they will have nothing to say. Now come we must make haste before it closes." Kong Bo replied.
Ye Qin stood up and bowed to Wang Tao's father and said: "Thank you, Uncle Wang, I will see you another time."
Wang Tao's father stood up and patted his shoulder as the father and son duo saw them outside the company personally shocking the employees all around them.

Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
