6: Li Muyun
“So beautiful...”
“...of a Spirit.”
In the water, a swirling, azure-colored pet beast continuously shot water arrows at the surrounding trees.
The commotion Li Wen heard earlier was probably caused by the trees being hit.
These trees, encountering both of them at the same time, could be said to have truly fallen on hard times. Question: If two teams, A and B, work simultaneously, when will all the trees be cut down?
“Li Wen, you’re training here too.”
Li Wen's movements also made Li Muyun, who had been training there for a while, notice him.
This greeting made Li Wen a bit puzzled. He knew Li Muyun was the top student in their grade, but why would she know him?
In his original world, he didn't seem to have any interactions with her.
Although they shared the same surname Li, her family was much wealthier than his.
The Shanghe Jade Powder Group was a major corporation that ranked highly even in Tianlan City. The supply of jade powder for all industrial parks in Shanghe City, Tianlan City, was basically handled by them.
The only ones that could compete with it were two other groups from Tianhai City and Lanhai City in Tiannan Province.
Even the jade powder he fed to Bud Treasure was produced by her family.
Even if they weren't familiar, he still had to politely respond to a greeting.
“Yes, I just heard some noise over here, so I came to check it out.”
“You’ve been here for a while, haven’t you?”
A blush quietly crept onto the girl's face, and she waved her hands somewhat awkwardly, saying, “No, no, I just started training too.”
“But Li Wen, you’re so diligent. You must have been here for a long time, right?”
“Diligence can make up for shortcomings. I’m also trying to narrow the gap between me and you top students,” Li Wen said with a shrug, jokingly.
The gap was real; after all, her family certainly wouldn't neglect the selection of her pet beast.
The moment Li Wen first saw the pet beast in the water, he could clearly feel it.
【Pet Beast: Little Spring Spirit】
【Species: Elite Novice】
【attribute: Water, Wind】
【Energy Value: 101 (Entry-level Novice)】
【trait: Vortex】
Little Spring Spirit's own water elements are constantly in a high-speed rotating state, greatly increasing the damage of its long-range water attribute Skills.
【Skill ①: Elementalization】
Its body is composed of water elements, providing a certain degree of immunity to physical attacks.
【Skill ②: Water Arrow】
Fires multiple water arrows at the target area.
【Skill ③: Pressurization】
Increases its own vortex speed, combining multiple water arrows into one.
【Skill ④: Low-level Self-Healing】 (+)
Can restore a small amount of its own health.
【① Vast Ocean Gene 20%】
【② Spring Spirit Gene 80%】
Good heavens, such a panel can't just be called luxurious; it's extremely luxurious.
Having an Elite Novice species at the initial stage means it must have been acquired through other channels at a high price.
One should know that Bud Treasure's species before detoxification was only Agile Intermediate, and it's highly unlikely for the industrial parks in Shanghe City to have pet beasts with an initial species of Elite.
Furthermore, its innate species Skills are a full four, one more than Bud Treasure even after learning.
The only comparable aspect is the Energy Value, and that's only because of his talent for perfect absorption of materials.
Generally, transcendent species cannot reach the entry-level Energy Value without a period of cultivation.
Those who can achieve it are often either masters or cheaters; clearly, Li Wen is the latter.
However, all of that was for later. What Li Wen was most concerned about now was what exactly the plus sign after the Low-level Self-Healing Skill meant.
【Yes/No: Spend 5 Knowledge Points to unlock this Skill teaching method】
【Teachable target: Bud Treasure】
【Balance: 21】
Skill teaching? That means his pet beast can learn Skills outside of its own species.
However, only this one Skill is in a teachable state; perhaps it also requires certain conditions to be met.
Also, his balance increased to 21, so it seems that observing pet beasts he hasn't seen before is also a way to gain Knowledge Points.
His momentary daze had already made the female student notice something was off.
“What’s wrong? Are you okay?”
“No, no, I just couldn't recognize what your pet beast was for a moment. I guess it's not a pet beast from our Shanghe City, is it?”
Li Wen quickly spoke to defuse the awkwardness.
This sentence just happened to open Li Muyun's floodgates.
“Yes, my father specifically found it for me from the neighboring Haicheng.”
“It perfectly matches my talent, 【Source Flow】.”
“【Source Flow】 can replace the water attribute pet beast's own source water with the source water I store, and 【Vortex】 greatly amplifies the effect of the source water.”
“Little Spring Spirit combined with my cold water can unleash three attributes of water arrows.”
“Oh, by the way, haven’t you joined the Beast Tamer class group yet?”
Li Wen thought carefully, 'Is there such a thing? Why didn't those two tell me?'
Never mind, they probably haven't joined either.
“Hmm.”
“I already introduced my transfer student from Haicheng in the Beast Tamer class group, no wonder you didn’t know.”
The two naturally added each other on their Penguin accounts, and Li Wen was also pulled into the class group.
After their conversation, Li Muyun seemed to feel she had been a bit impolite, and her pretty face was even redder than before.
Li Wen pondered carefully and came up with a plan to find free labor.
“Um, Li Muyun.”
“I have a good suggestion, which is to train our pet beasts together.”
Saying this, he summoned Bud Treasure. After two days of feeding and special cultivation, the kitten-sized Bud Treasure had already grown to Li Wen's thigh height.
Bud Treasure, still asleep, had her sweet dream interrupted, wearing a hazy, sleepy expression.
“Bud~”
“So cute!”
The moment she saw Bud Treasure, Li Muyun threw all suggestions out of her mind. She immediately hugged Bud Treasure, pressing her face against Bud Treasure's body as if petting a cat.
With this, Bud Treasure immediately woke up.
“Bud~ Bud~ Bud~”
“Master, help! There’s a strange woman trying to kidnap me!”
Li Wen soothed Bud Treasure through the contract: “It’s okay, I’m right here.”
At the same time, he said to Li Muyun with some embarrassment, “This child doesn’t seem to like such close contact. Let her come to me.”
Li Muyun was also reminded and felt a bit awkward. She released Bud Treasure and then took out her phone.
“I can’t enjoy such a cute pet beast all by myself; I must post it in the class group so everyone can have a nosebleed together.”
Seeing Li Muyun's complete focus on Bud Treasure, Little Spring Spirit beside her seemed to ask: So, does love disappear?
A single photo immediately livened up the quiet class group.
“Oh my goodness, how can there be such a cute pet beast!”
“Sacks are ready.”
“Team up +1”
“Team up +1”
“Although I don’t want to break your formation, aren’t you curious whose pet beast this is?”
“@Yun. Quickly tell us, whose pet beast is this?”
Yun.: “It’s a classmate from our class.”
Attached is a photo.
Li Wen gently stroked Bud Treasure, and the two leaves on Bud Treasure’s head swayed happily.
