116: The little Qilin has learned a new skill!

Then, as he picked up the quilt, Little Qilin seemed to understand what he was doing, immediately whimpered, and then lay directly on Chu Yixing's bed.

Chu Yixing's eyelids twitched, and he asked,

"You want to sleep on the bed?"

Little Qilin immediately raised its small head and nodded repeatedly, its golden eyes staring intently at Chu Yixing.

Chu Yixing was stunned, then immediately became interested:

"Little fellow, you can understand what I'm saying?"

Little Qilin hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Chu Yixing smiled at Little Qilin's cute appearance and deliberately asked,

"If you sleep on the bed, where do I sleep?"

Little Qilin's expression clearly froze, and it actually showed a thoughtful look. Chu Yixing watched with interest as Little Qilin turned its small head, observing its surroundings.

Little Qilin looked around, thought for a moment, then moved its body further into the bed, clearing out half of the outer side of the bed, and then looked at Chu Yixing.

Chu Yixing finally couldn't help but laugh out loud:

"You mean, we sleep on the bed together?"

Little Qilin nodded, its small golden eyes fixed on Chu Yixing, revealing a faint, almost imperceptible longing.

Chu Yixing reached out and stroked Little Qilin's head. Little Qilin went from initial apprehension to slowly closing its eyes and enjoying Chu Yixing's petting.

After playing with Little Qilin for a while, Chu Yixing lay down to rest. Little Qilin saw Chu Yixing lie down, hesitated for a moment, then moved its small head closer, lay down next to Chu Yixing, and closed its eyes.

The next day, after Chu Yixing woke up, he saw Little Qilin sleeping sprawled out, twitched the corner of his mouth, woke Little Qilin up, fed it some pet food, and then gave Little Qilin 1 Life Pill and 1 Energy Pill each.

While Little Qilin was eating, Chu Yixing sent a message to his Counselor.

"Good morning, Counselor. I'd like to ask about pet leveling."

"Pet leveling? Your Little Qilin? At this stage, you can take it to the academy's exclusive Instance, the [Pet Training Ground]. I'll apply for weekly entry for you right now."

"The pet experience gain efficiency in the Instance is 5 times that of the outside world, but only pets can fight; you cannot participate."

After finishing breakfast, Chu Yixing carried Little Qilin out to the Instance Center. He was going to take Little Qilin to the pet experience Instance to level up.

When Chu Yixing arrived at the [Pet Training Ground] area, the system prompt sounded.

"[Do you want to consume an entry to enter the Instance? Yes/No]"

Chu Yixing chose yes, and the scene before him changed. Chu Yixing observed and found that he existed as a phantom, and the surrounding environment was also different from the [Qilin Trial Ground].

Little Qilin looked at the changing environment and the illusory Chu Yixing, clearly a little panicked. Chu Yixing quickly comforted it:

"It's okay, don't be afraid. When other monsters appear later, no matter what they are, eliminate them."

Little Qilin heard Chu Yixing's voice, calmed down, and began to scan the empty surroundings, waiting for battle.

Chu Yixing chose to start the challenge, and a wave of small monsters spawned. Little Qilin didn't wait for Chu Yixing's command, rushed forward with stomps, tail whips, etc., and quickly cleared them all.

Little Qilin's attribute values were very high; its level one attributes were comparable to other pets' level thirty or forty attributes. The experience Instance was too simple for it. Little Qilin quickly cleared ten waves of monsters. Whether it was the Elite Monster of the third wave, the ordinary leader boss of the fifth wave, the Elite BOSS of the seventh wave, or the leader boss of the tenth wave, all were easily dealt with by Little Qilin.

After exiting the Instance, Little Qilin leveled up to level 5, its attributes further increased, and it also comprehended a new skill.

Chu Yixing opened the [Pet] panel to check the new skill.

2. Water · Sweet Rain: Consumes 500 Spirit Power, purifies all debuffs on all friendly targets within the designated area, and grants them 50% control reduction for the next 5 seconds. Cooldown: 1 minute.

Chu Yixing nodded with satisfaction at the new skill. The purification skill was very practical, indicating that Little Qilin's development was well-rounded.

A month passed quickly. In this month, Chu Yixing leveled up to 38, acquired new equipment, and upgraded his existing gear.

Little Qilin also leveled up to 15, unlocked 2 skills, and its weakness was almost fully nurtured.

Chu Yixing began to prepare for the National War. In three days, the National War would begin, and the Qilin Academy's rule was that all eligible students must participate.

Chu Yixing first opened the [Equipment] panel to ensure all equipment was in optimal condition.
