[Add-on 2/10 for the ripples of the Light Spring Flow for the Silver League]
Though he teased himself, Xu Ran was very happy with half of his Ten Consecutive Draw rewards being non-white.
Nothing less expected from a lucky fish.
When Liu Gu left, the sun had started to set, and it was time to close the
Starfire Foster Shop for the day.
Xu Ran prepared the evening meals for the sixteen tenants in the foster area and, with Ziyun in his arms, returned to the ground-floor shop.
“Meow-” (I want washing and grooming!)
Ziyun slightly raised her head, nudged Xu Ran, her eyes full of anticipation.
“All right,” Xu Ran smiled, “Tomorrow is the finals. Tonight we won’t train and keep our energy at its peak. This is called nourishing the spirit and storing up energy.”
“A grooming will be perfect to get you in your prime condition.”
Ziyun nodded approvingly, her eyes expressing a human-hke satisfaction.
She had been training persistently for three hours every day, which was hard
work!
It was time to relax!
While they chatted, they arrived at the grooming room.
While Xu Ran prepared the bath dew and tested the water temperature, Ziyun had already obediently jumped into the grooming pool, waiting for Xu Ran to shower her.
“Splash–”
With a soft sound, Ziyun’s fluffy fur quickly adhered to her body, and her originally fluffy figure became agile.
Ziyun, who had awakened into an Electric Chasing Cat, was no longer as skinny as before. Even with her fur clinging to her body, one could still see her smooth muscle lines and the powerful strength hidden within them.
The warm water flowed deep into her fur roots and deep into the hair follicles, the feeling was like being in a hot spring, satisfying satisfaction made Ziyun close her eyes in contentment.
As Xu Ran gently massaged her, just the right pressure reached the hair follicles and stroked the rich nerves hidden under the skin, like an electric current spreading throughout her body, Ziyun’s body trembled slightly, a melodious moan escaped from her throat.
“Meow—”
Half an hour later, a refreshed Ziyun lay lazily in Xu Ran’s arms, as he carried her to the living area on the second floor.
She adeptly picked up a corner of the quilt, covering Xu Ran’s lower body who was meditating cross-legged, then Ziyun crawled into the quilt. The completely relaxed state of her body and mind led her to fall into a sweet sleep within a few breaths.
Time passed minute by minute.
Xu Ran was deeply immersed in accelerated meditation and unable to extricate himself.
He felt that he was about to touch the threshold of the Second Stage of
Contract Power.
At this rate, he would break through smoothly in one more day at most.
Funnily, it will be just perfect timing.
The requirements for participating in the New Beast Master Challenge were a Transcendent Stage pet beast who contracted and whose contract power had not yet broken through the Second Stage of the Transcendent Level Beast Master.
If he broke through even a day earlier, he would lose his eligibility to continue in the competition.
Breaking through after the competition ends would be perfect.
While he was concentrating on meditation and using the effect of the Meditation Acceleration Card to suppress his own wandering mind, a prompt suddenly appeared in his mind.
[Novice Task 4 Completed]
Huh?
Xu Ran was startled, deliberately withdrew from the meditative state, and opened the personal panel.
[Host: Xu Ran
Contract Power: First Stage
Contracted Pet Beast: Ziyun [view details]
System Skills:
[Plucking Fur (C Level)] (55/100)
[Drug Application (C Level)] (3/500)
Pet Beast Skills:
… (irrelevant skills omitted)
Physical points: 516 (discretionary)
Pleasure Value: 8029
System Upgrade Experience: 300/1000]
[Novice Task 4: Expand and Strengthen (completed)
Task description: Please upgrade the system skill [Drug Application] to C level Task Reward: System Skill [Pranks], System Upgrade Experience +300]
[Click to receive the reward]
Xu Ran:”!!!”
In preparation for the competition and welcoming new guests, he almost forgot that he still had a novice task to complete: upgrading the Drug Application skill to level C.
With the number of tenants in the foster shop gradually increasing, the task, which originally seemed difficult, was being completed rapidly. At midnight, the sixteen tenants at the foster shop provided him with 16 points of experience, just enough to upgrade the level of Drug Application to C.
Receive the reward!
Looking at the new skill [Pranks], Xu Ran’s heart was filled with joy.
The previous two system skills were stronger than one another.
The [Plucking Fur] skill allowed Xu Ran to gain the skill of grooming pet beasts. The many skills he obtained earlier were the foundation for Ziyun to become stronger.
[Drug Application] allowed Xu Ran to gain discretionary physical points.
Without it, Ziyun might not have achieved the complete Transcendent Stage by now. Even with stronger skills, she would easily fall into a disadvantage when facing opponents.
So, by this calculation, the new skill [Pranks]…
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the System Skill [Pranks]] [[Pranks] is a skill linked to accompanying training. The host can use it during the process of accompanying the foster pet beast in training to gain a certain number of discretionary skill points. These can be used to upgrade the host’s contracted pet beast]
Accompanying training? Skill points?
Xu Ran blinked his eyes, then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
Accompanying training is an added service of the foster care service.
As the name implies, after the customer chooses this service, the foster shop not only provides space and food for the pet beast but also helps the Beast Master to train the pet beast during the fostering period.
Strictly speaking, fostering with the added accompaniment training service is complete fostering.
However, it seems that the system has placed it on par with fostering.
Of course, that’s not the point.
The key is the new thing that can be gained from the [Pranks] skill, skill points!
