Chapter 299: Choosing a Soul Pet
A long breath like a rainbow, a fist descending like a meteor!
The little Bamboo Bear threw a punch. It was not fast, but the air exploded in all directions!
The airflow scattered like waves.
The short man’s heart jumped before he could react.
A meaty black bear paw had already landed on his body!
Bang!
The next moment, the short man was sent flying. Like a parabolic arc, he landed hundreds of meters away…
“…” The tall man.
He looked at the Bamboo Bear in shock.
He stared into the distance in confusion.
‘What’s going on?’
‘This Bamboo Bear is so strong?’
The punch just now did not even have soul power fluctuations. It was obvious that it was only using physical strength.
This strength seemed to be a little strong?
“The Bamboo Bear looks cute… It is indeed good at strength. But in my impression, this Bear Treasure’s strength shouldn’t be that strong… Did he deliberately go easy to give Bear Treasure some confidence?” The tall man pondered.
The Bamboo Bear retracted its paw and scratched its head. It had not even used much strength.
It felt that these humans were quite weak now.
After a while, the short man walked over, but his face was very pale.
Although he was a Level 40 Contract Soul Master, he did not have a spirit martial soul. The strength of his body was not that abnormal.
According to his estimation of this Bear Treasure’s strength, he had thought that he would suffer a little pain at most.
He did not expect… that punch to be so powerful?
After being sent flying so far, his body began to spasm.
Especially the abdomen, it was twitching.
If he had not used his soul power to resist in the end, he would have fainted from this punch.
The short man took out a tube of fragrant medicine and drank it.
“Alright!”
The short man forced a smile and encouraged, “It seems that you’ve improved greatly in the past two months! Not only did your cultivation increase very quickly, but your training also didn’t fall behind…”
“Are you okay?”
The tall man looked at him in confusion.
“What can happen to me?”
The short man said, “Ahem, it’s about time. Let’s go. Bear Treasure is in good condition. There’s no need to check anything else.”
The tall man nodded and checked the bamboo forest.
Considering that the Bamboo Bear’s strength was slowly increasing, the two of them took out a piece of black-gold steel from the soul device and placed it in the bamboo forest.
It was for the Bamboo Bear to cultivate.
The Bamboo Bear looked at the two of them. As it gnawed on the bamboo, it waved at them and sized up the black-gold steel excitedly.
The hardness of black-gold steel was dozens of times that of black-gold rock.
It was specially used to cultivate a thousand year soul skill for soul pets.
After the two of them left, the Bamboo Bear immediately cultivated the black-gold steel.
For a moment, the wind in the bamboo forest was ruthless…
In the distance.
The two of them did not walk for long.
The tall man asked, “Were you pretending just now? Is Bear Treasure that strong? I didn’t sense any soul power fluctuations.”
The short man nodded and said, “It’s indeed quite strong. There’s something wrong. However, the Bamboo Bear is originally good at strength. It also cultivates so hard. It’s not surprising that its strength is so strong. It’s not inferior to those thousand year extremely rare soul pets at all.”
“That’s true. Are you really fine?” The tall man asked again.
“What a joke!” The short man laughed, “It’s just a punch. What can I…”
Before he finished speaking, the short man’s expression suddenly changed. A strange force suddenly emerged from his body and kept twisting his body.
He fell to the ground and curled up like a cooked lobster.
The tall man was stunned.
‘Didn’t you say it was fine?’
The tall man immediately summoned a Spirit Healing Mushroom that bounced around the short man, sprinkling green light.
After a while, the short man regained his senses…
“That punch is not normal!”
——
When Wang Che returned to school, there were only a few days left until winter break.
After returning, the little caterpillar began to absorb the Netherworld Ghost Flame. It was estimated that it would finish absorbing it by night and begin to cultivate the Capital Divine Fire Token.
“Winter break lasts more than a month. I have to plan it well.”
After Wang Che returned, he pondered, “I can start preparing to modify the Magnetic Sword a second time because the second level of the Myriad Treasures Dao Palace can be opened…”
Wang Che was about Level 20 now, but he had yet to absorb his second soul ring.
It was not that he was not anxious, but Wang Che wanted to cultivate a few more wisps of Hundred Refinements soul power to see what the limit of Level 20 was.
Two days ago, when Wang Che went to test, after 60 wisps of Hundred Refinements soul power, the soul power tested was indeed Level 20.
However, after reaching Level 20, the Hundred Refinements soul power seemed to be able to condense a few more wisps.
It should not have reached the limit of Level 20.
After reaching the limit of Level 20, without a soul ring, the Hundred Refinements soul power might not be able to continue cultivating.
Therefore, Wang Che planned to absorb the soul ring and break through after reaching the limit of Level 20.
Around ten at night, the little caterpillar had finished absorbing the Netherworld Ghost Flame.
As it obtained more flames, the speed at which it absorbed them became faster and faster.
“Ssss…”
The little caterpillar spat out a wisp of purple-black cold flames. Although he could not feel much temperature, Wang Che felt his divine sense being affected.
“Next, I’ll begin cultivating the Capital Divine Fire Token.”
Wang Che began to teach the little caterpillar this special spell.
To be precise, this move was not a spell.
It was a divine power.
The cultivation of divine power was difficult and the conditions were rather harsh.
At the same time, its power often had extraordinary special effects.
“This move is relatively simple to cultivate.”
Wang Che spent a rectangular token on the drawing paper.
There were various special patterns engraved on the token, and flames surrounded it.
Wang Che’s drawing skills were extremely good, so the details of this token looked very clear and emitted a great power.
“Use the fire soul essence to unleash three types of flames and condense them into the image.”
Wang Che said, “There can’t be any mistakes up there.”
“When you cultivate, we’ll go and try.”
The little caterpillar nodded and cried out. This was super simple!
It carefully recorded the token in its mind and felt as if its mind had instantly understood it.
It immediately began to draw…
Then…
Not to mention condensing the three flames into the general pattern of the token, it could not even condense a rectangle.
The little caterpillar: “?”
It seemed a little difficult.
After half an hour, not to mention fusing and condensing, it was very difficult to combine the three flames properly.
That was okay.
The little caterpillar fell asleep and entered the dream realm.
Next morning, the little caterpillar woke up and excitedly woke up Wang Che, who was cultivating. It opened its mouth and spat out three different flames that had already fused.
However, it did not fuse into a token.
But it already had a rough appearance.
The little caterpillar had probably tried countless times to cultivate in the dream realm.
“Not bad.”
Wang Che nodded.
In fact, the principle of the Dream Realm Space was equivalent to having costless attempts at trial and error. It could be repeated infinitely.
It could keep trying.
In the dream realm, it did not consume much energy to use soul skills hundreds of times.
The proficiency naturally increased.
“Alright, we’re leaving school in a few days. We’ll train today and say goodbye to that little Bamboo Bear.”
The little caterpillar was stunned and nodded happily.
This was great.
If it could not see the little Bamboo Bear, it would not feel so pressured every day!
Wang Che smiled.
With the little caterpillar, they breathed in the morning air and followed the mountain track to the bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest was very quiet.
Wang Che frowned slightly.
Normally, when it came, the Bamboo Bear would have already run out.
Today, there was no bear in sight.
“Ssss!”
The little caterpillar shouted.
‘I’m here!’
The bamboo forest did not respond.
The little caterpillar: “?”
There was no bear.
Wang Che pondered for a few seconds and said, “Perhaps the staff of the academy took it away. It’s going to be winter break soon. The wandering soul beasts should be having their checkups.”
“I’ll ask. Go train yourself first.”
This was the little caterpillar’s tool bear. He needed it to pressure the little caterpillar.
He could not lose it.
Normally, the ones in charge of checking were the teachers from the Beast Cultivation major.
In university colleges, there were Beast Cultivation Houses for students to choose soul pets.
Normally, there would be soul beasts raised by the school in the Beast Cultivation House.
If there was a problem with the soul beasts in the mountain, professional Beast Tamers would bring them to the Beast Cultivation Room for testing.
Wang Che arrived at the Beast Cultivation House and discovered that many students were choosing soul pets.
Of course, it was not free.
He had to use points to exchange for the right to choose.
If he was willing, he could also purchase soul pet eggs from other channels, hatch them again, and raise them from scratch.
However, that would take too much effort and energy.
Normally, only the first soul pet would be worth the effort.
After his level increased, he could choose a soul pet with a certain cultivation base that a Beast Tamer had specially nurtured.
He would receive it and slowly nurture it.
Normally, the second soul pet would have a hundred years of basic cultivation.
If it was too high, like a thousand years, it would not be good.
If its soul power cultivation was too high, the intensity of nurturing would not be uniform, and it would be very difficult to change in a short time.
There would be difficulty in nurturing it and it would not be easy to get along with the Contract Soul Master. It was very troublesome.
As for hundred year soul pets, at this stage, they had a certain level of intelligence. Although it wasn’t high, it was very easy to sign a contract with a Contract Soul Master and get close to them.
At the same time, a low soul power cultivation meant that the cultivation path could be altered.
The more powerful a Beast Tamer was, the better the basic soul pet they nurtured.
This was the reason why the Beast Tamer major was so popular.
The Beast House was huge. Many students saw that winter break was coming and wanted to choose a suitable second or third soul pet.
They would take advantage of the winter break to train. When school started next year, they would have a certain level of combat strength.
If the conditions were met next year, they could also participate in the competition.
“Wow… that Wind Whisper Eagle is so cute… unfortunately, my first one is already a flying soul pet…”
“I’ll choose you! Melon Rain Frog! Second stage evolution, perfect! I’ll choose this one!”
“We’re all in university. Be rational. Don’t consider just looks and attributes! Think more about your martial soul and major. How should you match them? Our academy really isn’t strict at all. I heard from some students in the Battle Soul Academy that when they choose a second soul pet, they have to list at least five soul pets, explain the reason, and so on. They can only choose after the teacher agrees…”
“Our academy is really casual. The Battle Soul major is better in this aspect…”
“As fourth-year seniors and second-year juniors, you have to pay attention when choosing your second soul pet! Otherwise, it will affect the choice of our third soul pet!”
“…”
