Me, a First-Tier Tamer of Ten Dragons

In the Beast Taming World, there are ten ranks, and at rank one, a person can contract only one beast. Ye Jiuyuan awakened at eighteen with an F-rank talent. A useless rank-one nobody, he was mocked by everyone.

But he inherited the rundown pet shop his parents left behind and, against all odds, contracted ten abandoned junk beasts. A little black snake with a crooked tail, a gray fox with a broken leg, a white koi with a split fin, a gray parrot with no sight... Every one of them was incomplete, every one deemed "not worth training."

But no one knew that the blood of the Nine Dragon Sons flowed within these junk beasts.

Chi devoured. Yazi fought. Baxia defended. Fuxi brought life. Chaofeng brought speed. Chiwen brought frost. Pulao brought sound. Qiuniu brought water. Suanni brought thunder. Bian brought transformation. Ten beasts, ten dragon lineages, ten professions, ten elements.

Ye Jiuyuan would always remain at rank one. His total spiritual power was locked, and advancement was impossible. But the purity of his rank-one spiritual power was one in ten thousand. Every time Chi bit into high-ranked spiritual power, Ye's power became a little purer, its purity stacking without limit. One day, his rank-one spiritual power would be purer than rank ten.

From the pet shop in Huangshi City to the Federation City Association headquarters, from the 108 Yellow-Rank Cities to the three sacred lands of Qingxuan, Yulong, and Chixiao. Some secretly coveted dragon blood, some plotted to create artificial hybrid beasts, and some sought to rule the world with a myriad of beasts.

When all ten junk beasts became true dragons, and rank-one spiritual power surpassed the ten-rank beasts, everyone finally understood: the least conspicuous one, the little black snake with the crooked tail, was the last Heaven-Swallowing Dragon in the world.
