“It is called Mother Pig. My tamed beast is the strongest one out of the litter of pigs it gave birth to. It is more senior than my dad, and it is considered a special employee of our family,” Wang Qilin said.

“I know, you have already told me,” Bai Ye said.

“It just so happens that Mother Pig is going to give birth to another litter soon. You haven’t signed a contract with a tamed beast yet. You can pick the strongest one then,” Wang Qilin said.

“No worries. I already have a tamed beast,” Bai Ye said.

“Huh? Since when? Why did you not tell me?” Wang Qilin was shocked.

He was supposed to be his good buddy.

“I just signed the contract two days ago,” Bai Ye said. “It is still very young, which is why I didn’t tell you.”

“Well, I see.” Wang Qilin felt much better now.

“By the way, you don’t have to be nervous when you deliver Mother Pig’s babies. It is very experienced. All you have to do is cooperate with it. It is the breeding mother of our farm.” Wang Qilin secretly passed him a pack of long cigarettes solely meant for tamed beasts.

Bai Ye was puzzled.

“When you deliver the babies, all you need to do is light a cigarette for Mother Pig. It usually likes to smoke a few cigarettes when it has free time,” Wang Qilin said.

Tamed beasts had all kinds of hobbies.

Some tamed beasts liked to listen to songs, some sought excitement, some liked to fight, and some liked to sleep. There were many tamed beasts that liked to smoke.

Since there was market demand, people had invented a cigarette suitable for tamed beasts.

This cigarette was thicker and bigger than cigarettes for humans.

Staff members from the Municipal Administration Bureau started showing up one after another.

They registered their names and checked their identification cards.

They underwent fingerprint inspection as well.

After confirming their identity, the staff would bring each person to the corresponding test site.

Nearly half of the people taking the exam were students.

Since this was the weekend, parents also came with their children.

Bai Ye picked up a small box and followed the staff after confirming his identity.

He could see Wang Qilin through the cracks of the house by the roadside. A tanned Wang Qilin smiled, showing a row of snow-white teeth. He waved at him and gave him a thumbs-up.

Bai Ye laughed and pointed his middle finger at him.

He was shocked as soon as he reached the test site.

His partner was indeed Mother Pig.

Mother Pig lay on its side, and the floor was covered with straw mats. It seemed like a pregnant woman at an advanced age.

Its hind legs were crossed.

The right leg that rested on top of the left leg swayed slightly from time to time.

Upon seeing Bai Ye, it curled its forelegs.

It patted the open space next to it, motioning for Bai Ye to come over.

Bai Ye somehow felt that this scene was a bit surreal.

The staff member, who was wearing a hat, nodded at Bai Ye and then turned and left.

Bai Ye understood instantly.

Everything was already pre-arranged.

The test site was divided into separate compartments, just like public toilets. They were not soundproof, so one could hear clearly what was going on in the next test site.

There was a huge canopy on top.

A pungent smell lingered in the air.

Bai Ye wanted to wear a mask, but he was worried that Mother Pig would think that he looked down on it.

He was in a dilemma. He looked up at Mother Pig and then looked down at the mask in his pocket.

Everyone had arrived at their test sites.

The examiner walked into the shed with a timer.

He held the microphone, explaining the rules of the exam to everyone in a loud voice. The duration of the exam was 60 minutes.

One could not seek help from others.

If the partner had a difficult labor and there were complications during the exam, the candidate had to fully compensate the farm.

One could also give up halfway and seek professional help to deliver the babies. However, it would be considered failing the exam.

No matter the reason one failed the exam, one could not apply for a second exam within the next six months.

During the exam, one could not whisper or seek help from people around them.

One also had to remain at the test site.

Bai Ye took two deep breaths and began the delivery…

Nervous voices could be heard from the test site next to him from time to time.

Some students were really nervous. They were at a loss when they saw blood, dropping to the ground and bursting into tears as a result.

The stagnant atmosphere began to turn noisy.

Bai Ye closed his eyes and controlled his breath, preventing himself from being affected by others.

He then removed the ice pack.

Suddenly, a big hand stretched out.

Bai Ye was stunned. He raised his head and the experienced Mother Pig motioned for Bai Ye not to be nervous with an indifferent expression on its face.

It stretched out its trotters.

Bai Ye quickly passed the cigarette over to Mother Pig.

Mother Pig clamped the cigarette and put it in its mouth.

Bai Ye lit the cigarette.

Mother Pig took a deep breath.

Squinting its eyes, Mother Pig slowly exhaled a ring of smoke.

Bai Ye felt much more relieved by Mother Pig’s assurance.

He finally understood what Wang Qilin had meant when he’d said that he could easily pass the exam.

He did not need to do anything during the whole process. All he had to do was wrap the piglets with a thin cloth after they were born and wipe the stains from their bodies.

In less than 10 minutes, everything ended smoothly.

Mother Pig finished three cigarettes.

W-Was this over?

Bai Ye looked down at the seven piglets lined up on the ground.

It felt like a dream.

If the nervous mutters of the other examinees next to him did not remind him that he was still taking the exam, he would have thought it was a dream.

In the end, the examination result was approved.

Bai Ye walked out of the delivery room while holding seven piglets.

The other candidates could not help but feel dazed.

How could he finish in such a short time? It almost seemed as if he had given birth to them.

Bai Ye had passed the exam. All he needed to do now was submit his name and he would receive the Beginner Monster Caregiver Certificate.

“Has your family’s Mother Pig always been this wild?” Although he had passed the exam, Bai Ye was still under the impression that he was dreaming.

“Of course,” Wang Qilin said triumphantly.

“Mother Pig is the oldest among the group of senior pigs on my farm. Normally, it doesn’t participate in the exam. Buddy, we specially arranged for it to be your partner in the exam. In fact, among all the monsters on the farm, Mother Pig is the most powerful.”

Wang Qilin explained this to him.

Now that Bai Ye thought about it, he realized that Mother Pig’s every move was indeed different from the movements of an ordinary Iron-Armored Babirusa. Could this be the unique temperament of a master?

“Will the examiners question the results?” Bai Ye was still a little worried.

“This is nothing but a beginner’s certificate, so it doesn’t have much value. No one will care about it. It will be fine as long as we do not break the rules.” Wang Qilin waved his hand, unwilling to say more about this.

“Plus, I’m not the only one who does this. Basically, every farm does it. These are all unspoken rules,” Wang Qilin said.

After they had dinner at Wang Qilin’s house, Wang Defu got ready to drive Bai Ye back to the city.

They had just left the farm when Bai Ye saw a familiar figure outside the gate.

“Uncle Wang, please stop for a while,” Bai Ye said quickly.

The off-road vehicle braked immediately.

Bai Ye poked his head out of the car window and asked in disbelief, “Sister!? When did you get here?”

Fang Luolin flicked her hair behind her ears, maintaining her usual expression. “I just arrived not long ago.”

“Get in the car, girl. I’ll take you to the city gate. It’s getting late. It’s dangerous to be alone in the suburbs.” Wang Defu told Fang Luolin to get in the car.

After returning to the city, they took the bus back to their community.

“Wait.” Fang Luolin returned to the bedroom and took out a gift box before putting it on the table. “I forgot to give you a birthday gift the other day. This is a compensatory birthday gift.”
