Others Tame Beasts, I Tame Demons - Chapter 22

Chapter 22 Skill Upgrade, Impeccable!

Now that Zhang Xiaotong had contracted a suitable pet, Bai Zhining’s mission was completed.

However, it was still early. The team was not in a hurry to return to the safety station. Instead, at Su Yi’s suggestion, they continued to explore the forest around the lake.

Su Yi wanted to circle the lake and see if he could find any more treasures or talented pets.

At the same time, he also wanted to take this opportunity to train his Thorn Grass and obtain more soul power points.

Although Thorn Grass had been tired all day yesterday, it was full of momentum and spiritual energy today. It did not look exhausted at all.

It was all because of the Wood Spirit Stone.

After absorbing the Wood Spirit Stone, it was as if it had been injected with chicken blood. Not only had it recovered its spiritual energy, but its body had also maintained its optimal state. Even after the battle with the Iron Claw Badger not long ago, it did not look tired at all.

Since it was in such a good state, he naturally could not waste it. If he did not let it fight thirty to forty rounds today, he would be wasting that Wood Spirit Stone!

Thorn Grass clearly did not know what Su Yi was thinking. At this moment, it was still happily absorbing the remaining spiritual energy in the Beast Taming Space.

“Thorn Grass, dig and attack!”

“Very well. Grow and entangle. Strangle it with your barbed thorns and kill it!”

“Beautiful!”

Seeing a Jungle Jackal howl and fall to the ground under the strangulation of the Thorn Grass, Su Yi could not help but applaud.

From the surprise attack to subduing the enemy, Thorn Grass only took a few seconds. This efficiency was really shocking!

Although the Jungle Jackal was not completely dead, it had completely lost its ability to fight after being entangled by the thorns. Not only was its neck strangled to the point where it could not breathe, but its body was also riddled with holes from the sharp thorns. The blood that flowed out dyed it into a bloody wolf.

The Thorn Grass has won the battle. Skill proficiency increased.

Ding! The proficiency of Digging has been raised to the Impeccable Stage!

Impeccable?

Su Yi was slightly stunned and hurriedly checked the skill bar of the Thorn Grass.

Skills: Digging (Impeccable), Entanglement (Master), Grow (Master)

“It really improved. No wonder the Thorn Grass drilled the ground so quickly!”

Su Yi was surprised.

Less than two seconds after the Thorn Grass had burrowed into the ground, it had appeared under the Jungle Jackal. He thought he saw it wrong.

So it was all true!

As expected of an extraordinary creature with king-level potential. Its comprehension ability was indeed good!

It had to be known that many mediocre extraordinary creatures would never be able to cultivate even one skill to perfection!

Thorn Grass, who had three proficient skills, was already very strong. Now, its combat strength was even higher!

If it raised all three skills to the Impeccable Realm, it might be able to compete with ordinary extraordinary creatures!

Awesome! Su Yi was very happy, but at this moment, Bai Zhining’s voice suddenly sounded behind him.

“Your Thorn Grass has fought a dozen battles in quick succession today. I know you’re training it, but too much is as bad as too little. Too much training can easily hurt it.”

“I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for the warning.”

Su Yi listened humbly.

His first impression on Bai Zhining was that she was cold, capable, and powerful. However, from the looks of it, this senior didn’t seem to be as unapproachable as she appeared to be. In fact, she was still enthusiastic. At the very least, she would give him and Zhang Xiaotong some kind reminders from time to time.

If it were those who were truly cold, they wouldn’t care what pet someone contracted or how they trained their pets. They just needed to complete the mission.

Yesterday, one of his classmates had complained in the class group chat that his leading senior was inhuman and looked impatient. She had been urging them to contract any pet.

There was also a female classmate who complained that her senior was frivolous and kept hitting on her. He even deliberately said some vulgar things in front of her.

After all, it was free help. If they really encountered such a captain, as long as it was not too much, they could only endure it.

In comparison, Bai Zhining was simply a model!

“By the way, Senior, I’ve always had a question. Do you have any other pets besides the Stormbird? I remember that elite Beast Tamers should be able to contract three pets.” Su Yi suddenly asked.

“Huh?”

Bai Zhining glanced at him indifferently.

“Did I ask the wrong question? Sorry.”

Seeing her like this, Su Yi misunderstood. He thought that he couldn’t ask such a question casually and hurriedly apologized.

Zhang Xiaotong couldn’t stand it anymore and couldn’t help but remind him, “Su Yi, don’t you know? Senior Bai is a celebrity in our school. Last year, she even made it into the top twelve as a second-year student in the All-State High School League. There shouldn’t be many people in the school who don’t know that she has two rare pets, the Stormbird and the Shadow Cat.”

“Sorry, I don’t usually pay much attention to that sort of thing,”

Su Yi was a little embarrassed and apologized again.

Bai Zhining didn’t take this matter to heart and explained, “The extraordinary creatures we’ve encountered so far are enough to deal with for the Stormbird, so we didn’t trouble the Shadow Cat.”

After a moment of hesitation, Su Yi continued to ask, “So, you haven’t contracted a third pet, right?”

“Aren’t you asking too many questions?”

Bai Zhining frowned slightly.

Su Yi couldn’t be bothered to beat around the bush anymore and said seriously, “If your third pet doesn’t have a suitable choice, you can consider the little mink number 2043 at counter 107 of the Beast Taming Mall. I went there not long ago to take a look. I have a feeling that that little mink will definitely grow to the Grandmaster level in the future! Take this information as a thank you for helping me contract the Thorn Grass.”

“Another prediction?”

Bai Zhining clearly doubted his words, or rather, she didn’t believe him at all.

“Right. But I’m not sure about accuracy. It’s up to Senior to contract it or not.”

With that, Su Yi did not intend to continue this topic.

Seeing him like this, Bai Zhining’s heart wavered. Her rationality told her that this information was not credible, but for some reason, she still felt some anticipation.

“The Little Purple Mink is also a pet that specializes in speed. It’s very compatible with me. Anyway, there’s no better choice now. Why don’t I go to the Beast Taming Mall to take a look after I get out?”

That was what she thought.

The reason why she did not contract a third pet was because she wanted to wait for an extraordinary creature that could grow to the Grandmaster level or above.

After years of interaction, she could roughly determine the upper limit of her current two pets. If nothing went wrong, they could only grow to Commander rank at most.

To others, a Commander was already very rare, but to her, it was not enough!

The minimum standard she set for her next pet was Grandmaster!

However, pets that could grow steadily to the Grandmaster level were almost impossible to buy. Occasionally, one would appear, but it would be bought by someone more powerful. It would never be her turn.

After waiting for so long, she could no longer hold it in. She planned to take a step back and buy a pet that “had a chance of growing to the Grandmaster level” to try her luck.

And the Little Purple Mink was already on her list of candidates.
