During the three -hour training, the most improved was Ziyun’s Arc Skill. Being in constant motion and evasion, it was as if he was using this skill at high-intensity without any respite.
His skill proficiency increased from (1/100) to (25/100), and Ziyun, who initially could only dodge two energy attacks at once, has advanced to easily dodging three energy attacks.
In addition, the enhancement of Electric Spark is quite notable. With an increase of 20 proficiency points, the power of the skill executed by Ziyun has greatly improved compared to the beginning.
The maximum release distance was upgraded from five meters to eight meters and the blast range skyrocketed directly from a diameter of one meter to two ’ meters.
The last skill that was exercised, the Self-healing Power, was relatively less enhanced. The primary reason is that as the proficiency of Ziyun’s Arc Skill increased towards the end of the training, Ziyun was getting injured less and less.
Throughout the training process, the constant consumption and recovery of power is also a kind of release for Ziyun’s potential. His growth stage progress augmented by 22 points, resulting in a considerable enhancement in physical constitution.
Just a bottle of Energy Abundant Potion had such an effect that Xu Ran increasingly realized the extraordinary features of the system.
“Next time we get that kind of potion, we’ll have intensive training again.” On the way back, Xu Ran cheerfully rubbed Ziyun’s head, “Hard work today, rest well for the time being!”
“Meow-” (Okay-)
Ziyun lazily curled up in Xu Ran’s arms, feeling waves of exhaustion wash over him.
This exhaustion had nothing to do with physical strength. It’s due to mental fatigue caused by being constantly alert for attacks from all directions within the last three hours, which the Energy Abundant Potion could not replenish. Feeling the warmth in Xu Ran’s arms, Ziyun’s eyes slowly squinted, then he leaned on Xu Ran’s arm and fell asleep.
Noticing that the little fellow had fallen asleep, Xu Ran’s steps also became somewhat lighter.
Soon, the storefront of Starfire Foster Care Shop appeared in sight.
Glancing at the shop entrance, a surprised look crossed Xu Ran’s face.
He saw two familiar figures, it was Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yue who had come to the shop for washing and grooming yesterday.
Why are they here?
“Xiaoxiao, the shop owner has closed for the day. Shall we come back tomorrow?”
Standing in front of the tightly shut door of the Starfire Foster Care Shop, Lin Yue shook her head helplessly.
“We don’t have any other option.” Su Xiaoxiao sighed.
They had been waiting at the entrance for a while and had tried knocking and calling for the boss but received no response.
Apparently, the boss might have gone out.
They didn’t know when he would come back, so naturally the two women couldn’t wait forever.
“Next time we meet the boss, we should remind him to leave a contact number on the shop door when he’s not around.” Lin Yue couldn’t help but grumble.
“That’s a good suggestion, I’ll remember it next time.” A calm voice came from behind the two women, causing both of them to turn around.
“Boss, you finally…” Su Xiaoxiao began to cheer, but was cutoff by Xu Ran.
Shh—-” He quickly placed a finger on his lips, making a “quiet” gesture and then pointed to Ziyun, who was sleeping soundly in his arms.
Su Xiaoxiao quickly covered her mouth, and Lin Yue who was about to speak also instantly quieted down.
The three silently opened the shop door. Xu Ran turned his head towards the women and lowered his voice, “Can you wait for a moment?”
Afterwards, he stealthily carried Ziyun upstairs.
“The boss is really considerate towards his Pet Beasts!” WatchingXu Ran’s receding figure, Lin Yue nudged Su Xiaoxiao and began to chat with a chuckle.
“We are also very gentle with our Pet Beasts.” Su Xiaoxiao stroked the head of the peeking little Flame, with a smile, “After all, they are our lifelong companions!”
While the two women were conversing, Xu Ran, who had just put Ziyun on the bed upstairs, came down, “Alright, what brings you two here?”
“Just a heads up. Since you have just had grooming yesterday, our shop can’t provide another round of grooming service in a short span.”
”We know, we know.” Lin Yue waved her hand, “We are not here for grooming. We have a grooming-related question to ask the boss.”
“Oh? Did any adverse reactions occur with your Pet Beasts?” Xu Ran glanced at the Flame Fox and the Green Wind Eagle.
It seemed like these two were in pretty good condition.
“Of course not, on the contrary.” Su Xiaoxiao quickly told Xu Ran what happened in the skill training course in the afternoon, “Boss, does your grooming service have any special effects?”
“I think I have an idea of why you’re here.” Xu Ran stroked his chin, a thoughtful look on his face.
First, it can be affirmed that grooming does not help in enhancing skill proficiency.
If it does, the bathing knowledge provided by the system would certainly contain relevant instructions, and Xu Ran is certain that this is not the case. However, according to Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yue, the two Pet Beasts that were washed and groomed demonstrated significantly stronger abilities and performed better in skill testing.
Aside from the possibility that these two worked harder than other students it’s indeed very likely that it’s related to the grooming service from his shop.’ What could it be…
While Xu Ran was pondering, an idea suddenly struck him.
“I think I know the reason.” He slowly began to speak.
“What’s the reason?” Both Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yue looked on excitedly.
If it’s confirmed that grooming service at Xu Ran’s place can help to improve the skills of Pet Beasts, then the price of 6666 for a grooming service isn’t expensive at all. In fact, it’s quite cheap.
“If I am not wrong, it should be the impact of their condition.” Xu Ran, basing his explanation on the knowledge about pet handling and common sense he had learned from reading books yesterday, began to explain.
“We all have had such experiences. For instance, after being sweaty and sticky all over, we don’t feel like doing anything. But if we take a bath and feel clean and refreshed, it seems like our minds are sharper than before.”
“Or, say, generally our handwriting is pretty ordinary, but if we just bought a set of new stationery and are writing with a brand new pen in a new notebook, our handwriting unconsciously looks better.”
“If during an exam, the person sitting next to you has a cold and is constantly blowing their nose, the sound interrupts your train of thought, and a well-prepared exam can end up with unsatisfactory results.”
“Other than that there are…”
Xu Ran gave several similar examples and then summarized.
“So, grooming cannot directly improve a Pet Beast’s skills, but the Pet Beasts are in an unusually great condition after grooming, and it’s possible they have an extra been performing.”
Is that so?
Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yue looked at each other, feeling somewhat convinced by Xu Ran’s reasoning.
Though they didn’t get the answer they were looking for from Xu Ran, the fact that the test results of the two Pet Beasts improved after yesterday’s grooming was ascertained..
