Beast Taming: the More the Better

What's the result? Once or twice is fine, but a third or fourth time? This old guy, ever since he came to this brat's awful place, isn't even as enthusiastic about me anymore! Wasn't it agreed that this time would be the elemental evolution to break through to the Spirit Saint Level?! A Breeder's words—deceptive as a ghost's! And this little bastard!

Da Huang roared at Su Ping, who seemed a bit dumbfounded over there.

Ever since I came to this kid's place, nothing good has ever happened. It was bad enough being treated like some hyperactive husky, running all over the place. But I, Da Huang, am a Dragon! The apex of the Pet Beast Taming World! Coming to such a remote, backwater corner, I should be met with looks of worship and admiration from Breeders and Beast Tamers! And what do I get? Last time, that fiery red bird—who knows what it was made of—nearly scared me, your Grandpa Da Huang, to death! What kind of monstrous thing was that to frighten me? So, this kid is no good either!

Da Huang was indeed aggrieved!

In front of Su Ping and Liu Fuhai, Master Zhu Hong also felt a bit awkward about Da Huang's complaints, but this time, he really made a promise, "Rest assured, Da Huang, after this process is completed, your evolution and cultivation will be done soon. Not only that, but this time, through the generation and restraint of the Five Elements, I have a new idea for your elemental evolution. If all goes well, this evolution may not only allow you to break through your Racial Potential, but you might even directly break through to the Spirit Saint Level!"

"By then, as my main Pet Beast, both you and I will have entered the Spirit Saint Level, one after the other. What you should do now is think about what title I, as your master, should be sanctified with after reaching the Spirit Saint Level. You also need to consider how you'll deal with those of the Dragon Clan when you go back to Dragon City!"

"So, as long as this Paperman's cultivation is completed this time, we can reach the peak of life together!" Master Zhu Hong said, his voice extremely enticing.

Da Huang, with eyes wide as copper bells, stared at Zhu Hong, almost wanting to make this old man swear by a lantern.

For the first time, it showed deep mistrust towards its own Beast Tamer.

But to tell the truth, this old man sure had a way with painting pie in the sky.

When it thought of some of its own kind in Dragon City, and then imagined its future ascension to the Spirit Saint Level and returning to its homeland in glory, Da Huang couldn't help but straighten its back!

One last time! I'll believe this old guy one last time.

Da Huang let out a soft growl.

As for Su Ping, he watched the Earth Dragon with great interest.

Having spent so much time with Da Huang, he had really grown quite fond of and curious about it.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a Dragon Pet in the future?

Shaking his head, he regretted that Dragon Pets are rare.

But he did trust Master Zhu Hong's words.

Within the cycle of the Five Elements, did Master Zhu Hong have some other insight into Da Huang's evolution? Previously, Master Zhu Hong had said that Da Huang's evolution would be mainly focused on the Wood Element... Earth... Wood... Mixing concrete?

Su Ping hastily dismissed this ridiculous thought from his mind and focused wholly on the Paperman's Five Elements Paper Diagram, which was once again completely patched up and assembled!

The other two also finally got serious. They looked at the assembled Five Elements Paper Diagram. "Let's begin!"

The process began. Ever since the first time, this Five Elements Cycle had revolved countless times.

Su Ping hoped this was the last time.

The fiery red light flickered slowly above the wheel of the Five Elements Paper Diagram.

His realm had been promoted to Commander Fifth Stage, easily qualifying as an Intermediate Level Commander.

The assembled Five Elements Paper Diagram had also reached the threshold of Commandant Ninth Rank.

Therefore, the first flicker of Fire Element Energy fluctuation was much more intense than before.

3,107!

The first Grand Circulation spun by rapidly.

After returning to the Fire Elemental Energy, the number had changed to 7,059!

The increase was more than double.

The second Grand Circulation: 15,601! The growth was still there but had decreased.

The third Grand Circulation reached 28,958! The rate of increase continued to decline but was still within acceptable limits. However, the overall growth per Grand Circulation had started to shrink.

The fourth Grand Circulation reached 50,015! This time, the increase had dropped significantly, not even reaching double the previous value. However, the sheer magnitude of this base number allowed Su Ping and the others to breathe a sigh of relief.

Thus, they reached the most critical fifth Grand Circulation!

Suddenly, the trio couldn't even continue their casual banter as before; they even held their breath.

They stared intently at what was in front of them.

It was still Fire generating Earth. However, this time, the energy change after the conversion—56,127—took them by surprise.

Not too much, but too little!

Previously, each instance of elemental generation in the Five Elements Cycle leveraged power, adding about twenty percent more energy.

That meant the energy should have been around sixty thousand to be considered normal.

But this time, there was only an increase of about ten percent.

Su Ping suddenly felt he had caught on to something.

Perhaps this was the terminal point of the Five Elements generation and restraint cycle?

Sure enough, when the cycle rotated again and Earth generated Gold, the number displayed by the pure white energy cave was even smaller than before: 61,059!

The increase wasn't even ten percent!

Gold generated Water, energy value: 65,587!

Water generated Wood, energy value: 70,358!

At this point, even Su Ping's heart stopped beating for a moment.

The last time, the energy rotation had exploded right here.
