Beast Taming Patrol

Chapter 118: Chapter 50 Are You Ready? (Asking for Investment and Follow-up Reading)_2

At the Juvenile Beast Tamer stage, the opponents faced here will have their Talent Skills proficiency gradually enhanced from Tier I to Tier II. Moving from Tier I to Tier II does not require many training sessions; even if each attempt stops at the first level, over time, they can use Dream Crystal Stones to improve their skills to Tier II and thus challenge higher levels.

But at the Elite Beast Tamer stage, the opponents on the first level already possess Talent Skills at Tier II, and later on, they reach Tier III!

The amount of training required to move from Tier II to Tier III is much more significant. If one can only pass the first level and relies on the Dream Crystal Stone, which can only be used ten times at that level, to improve proficiency, hoping for a breakthrough is like a pipe dream. The efficiency of daily training in the Pet Tower would drastically decrease unless one starts with the capacity to pass the second and third levels, otherwise, the cost-benefit ratio is very low.

By the Command Stage, the Pet Tower almost ceases to be effective, and Beast Tamers will need to find other ways to enhance the abilities of their pets.

As for the Sovereign Stage, it surpasses the challenge limits of the Pet Tower and cannot use the Pet Tower for improvement anymore.

Back at the Lin Family, Lin Su, as usual, made full use of the Space Heart to devote time to meditation, treasuring the not-easily-achieved six-fold meditation acceleration, while Qiuqiu started practicing Ice Palm on stones in the garden as arranged by Lin Su.

The Ice Palm consumes about half the energy of the Frost Storm, and Qiuqiu’s task that afternoon was to practice Ice Palm a hundred times.

With sufficient energy liquid, this target is not hard to achieve.

It’s just a bit hard on the stones.

…

“Qiuqiu, help me look for Gate 7.” Lin Su, wearing a mask, looked around blankly, lost in thought.

When he slept in the Shenwu World and returned to Blue Star, arriving at the airport early in the morning, he realized he had forgotten something very important.

He had never flown on a transport passenger plane alone.

Whether from Zone 32 to Zone 11 or during the Breeding Results Competition, arrangements were made in advance, and he just had to board the plane on time. But this time he was traveling to Zone 32 in a personal capacity, and, completely unfamiliar with the boarding process, he inevitably got lost.

Qiuqiu, perched on Lin Su’s head, looked around upon hearing his words, quickly locking onto a spot.

“Meow! (｡✪ω✪｡)” (It’s over there!)

This was when Frost Eyes’ enhancement of vision came in handy, as Qiuqiu’s sight was much sharper than Lin Su’s, quickly spotting the sign pointing to Gate 7.

“Let’s go, go, go.” Seeing the limited time left for boarding, Lin Su grabbed his bags and quickly headed in that direction.

After a frantic rush, Lin Su, now seated calmly on the transport passenger plane, took a cup of juice and gulped it down, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

He had finally boarded the plane.

With this experience, next time he should not face a similar situation.

“Eh? Are you…”

A voice came from across the aisle, and Lin Su looked up to see the girl sitting opposite, about his age. Her expression turned from astonishment to delight as she recognized Lin Su’s face, “Are you Lin Su?!”

Finished—the juice had him taking off his mask, and he was recognized.

Lin Su coughed lightly and then nodded, “Hmm…”

Last night while shopping, he had noticed that people often recognized him on the street and came up to chat.

This was a side effect of appearing on stage during the Breeding Results Competition.

That’s why Lin Su had deliberately worn a mask when he left the house that day; covering most of his face indeed helped a lot.

“Ah! You…” The girl opposite seemed a bit impulsive. After confirming Lin Su’s identity, she couldn’t help but raise her voice, fortunately, Lin Su was quick to gesture to her to keep it down.

“Oh, okay.” The girl nodded in understanding, lowering her voice as requested, but her expression remained excited, “Lin Su, Lin Su, do you have a partner? What type do you like?”

Lin Su: “… Blah blah blah.”

“Right, right, Lin Su, what’s your contact number? Can we exchange it?”

Lin Su: “… Mumble mumble.”

“…”

From Zone 11 to Zone 32, the journey on the transport passenger plane took about an hour.

An hour later, Lin Su disembarked from the landed transport passenger plane, said goodbye to the reluctant girl, and ran off with Qiuqiu.

An hour!

Do you know how I spent that hour?

The girl named Zhang Ting really could talk; during that hour-long journey, her mouth went non-stop like it was on fast forward, leaving Lin Su completely numb.

Women are terrifying.

Well, except for Sister Nan.

It looks like I can’t opt for the economy class next time just to save money.

The economy class of the transport plane had individual seats for two people, apart from which there were also single seats in business class to choose from.

The last time Qin Nan chose economy, it was because there would be danger midway, facilitating emergency protection for Lin Su, but this time Lin Su chose economy purely to save money.

Shortly after leaving the airport, Lin Su saw two juniors holding a sign for Qingying High School not far away and hurried over with his bags.

According to the original plan, he would go to Qingying High School this morning to meet the juniors, and in the afternoon, he would visit the Autumn Leaves Orphanage to check on his brothers and sisters whom he had not seen for over a month.

These two juniors were volunteers arranged by the alma mater to pick him up at the airport.

“Hello, senior!” Recognizing Lin Su, the two juniors were very excited, helping Lin Su with his luggage while curiously sizing up the senior who was only a grade older than themselves.

As high school students facing the choice of attending Beast Tamer University, they obviously wouldn’t miss an event like the Breeding Results Competition. Lin Su’s performance in the competition had truly shocked many people, so much so that some students inside Qingying High School now referred to him as “Lin God.”

“Hello,” Lin Su smiled at the somewhat unfamiliar juniors, “how do we get there?”

“The car is ready, this way.”

“Okay.”

…

“Phew!”

Late at night, lazily lying on the familiar bed, Lin Su’s face was full of smiles.

Originally, he had planned to find a hotel to stay for the night and leave early the next morning, but to his surprise, his room in the orphanage was still there, and everything in the room was just as he had left it. Although it had gathered some dust over the month, it only needed a simple cleaning to be ready for him to move back in.

In the morning at the meet-up in his alma mater, the juniors showed even more enthusiasm than he had anticipated, which made Lin Su quite embarrassed. Finally, he managed to escape after taking a group photo with his juniors.

In the afternoon, Lin Su’s return to the orphanage triggered a carnival among the children; for those who had never left District 32, everything about Lin Su’s experiences since leaving the orphanage was incredibly novel. They clung to Lin Su asking questions all afternoon, their robust curiosity finally satiated.

This day seemed to have passed entirely in the midst of busyness.

Touching the very compliant Qiuqiu lying in his arms, Lin Su smiled, “Were you tired today?”

As the orphanage’s beloved mascot, Qiuqiu had received a warmer welcome than even Lin Su himself.

“Meow~” (Very happy~)

“Glad to hear that.” Lin Su laughed heartily, “Maybe it’s because I left the orphanage in such a rush last time, so coming back and seeing everyone this time feels like I’ve made up for some regrets.”

“Meow, meow!ฅ(≧ω≦)ฅ” (Lin Su has me, no regrets!)

“You…” Lin Su stroked Qiuqiu’s soft fur, smiling, “We should head to Shengwu now. We’re entering the Nirvana Secret Realm today; are you ready?”

“Meow!” (Ready!)

…

In the still of the night, a broad and muscular figure strode along the deserted streets, then quickly slipped into a shadowy alley.

Within the gloom, several vague figures could be faintly seen.

The burly figure spoke coldly, “The target’s schedule is confirmed. He’s leaving on a transport plane early tomorrow morning; we’ll ambush him mid-route before he reaches the airport.”

“Yes!”

“If there’s a problem with this mission again, the Eastern Beast Tamer won’t spare us, the District 32 Holy Sect branch. You all saw what happened to Kui Si and the others,” the figure paused, “We can’t go back now.”
