Beast Taming: the More the Better

One thousand Universal Experience Points!

Five thousand Paperman-exclusive Experience Points!

What did this mean?

This meant the Paperman Record's experience points had leaped close to the Forest Wolf Catalog's, not far from LV4.

It meant that if the exchange was completed, he would gain one thousand five hundred Universal Experience Points. This was half the experience needed to complete the External Incarnation skill—one of the TOP2 Hall-level Advanced Skills lost in the Ancient Times!

Combined with the Experience Points earned from previously cultivating the Heart of the Sun and the Heart of Elements, even without the exchange, he was very close!

Thinking of this, Su Ping glanced:

[Universal Experience Points: 1,800 points!]

These were the Universal Experience Points currently displayed.

Su Ping then took another look at the two Records providing the most Experience Points:

Forest Wolf Catalog: LV3 (17,850/20,000)

Paperman Record: LV3 (14,582/20,000)

They really weren't that far apart now.

The Forest Wolf Catalog's improvement had been substantial. However, Su Ping had also helped perfect the Crown Wolf Emperor's Evolution Law and analyzed the reason for Xiao Qing's Poison Type mutation. This took considerable effort and resources. Moreover, he often didn't interact with those Forest Wolves, so the Experience Points earned from them weren't substantial.

But he was in contact with this large group of Papermen day and night.

Furthermore, the previous evolution of the Advanced Level Elemental Papercraft Person, the cultivation of the Heart of Elements, and the five thousand experience points from the Five Elements Body this time all contributed to the Paperman Record's logical progression.

Su Ping blinked, falling into deep thought.

He currently had 1,800 Universal Experience Points. Considering the ten-to-one conversion ratio for normal Catalog Experience, he would need 12,000 Catalog Experience points to gather the full amount required for External Incarnation.

Su Ping still preferred to use the Paperman experience.

The Paperman's Experience Points weren't particularly useful. Even after the Record was upgraded to LV3, the Mind's Eye chain combat ability wasn't applicable to the Paperman army. Once the Papermen completed assembly and existed via a soul connection, they essentially shared energy and bodies.

In such a case, why bother with the extra effort?

No one knew what the LV4 effect would be, not even Su Ping. Using experience from both Records felt like it would slow down the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas's Catalog Level advancement, which wasn't ideal.

Thus, Su Ping's goal suddenly became very clear.

Use the Paperman Record experience!

With a thought from Su Ping, the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas responded:

[Convert 12,000 Paperman Record-specific Experience Points into 1,200 Universal Experience Points. Confirm?]

Yes! Su Ping silently affirmed in his heart.

Xiao Qing had been sidelined for far too long.

The previously mentioned Dragon Nation Youth Professional Assessment Competition was scheduled for mid-year. This particular competition was special, heralding reforms in professional assessments and attracting heightened attention.

Of course, Su Ping wasn't in it for fame. The primary reason was the many benefits!

Zhu Hong had mentioned that the Crystal Dragon was one of the prizes for this professional assessment, though it wasn't clear which rank would receive it. This temptation, coupled with Su Ping's constant exposure to Da Huang and his growing yearning for Dragon Pets, was undeniably irresistible.

The Crystal Dragon, a Space Element being. Su Ping planned to research the Space Element and create some form of spatial transportation for his home!

Therefore, it was crucial to strengthen his abilities as much as possible before the professional assessment.

Previously, no one seemed to have considered Su Ping participating in this competition; only Qin Xiaoxue had mentioned it to him once.

As a Beast Tamer who had awakened only a year ago, it would be incredibly difficult for him to compete against top geniuses like Qin Xiaoxue, Ye Zhou, and Dong Muxuan. They had already heard about the assessment and had been at the Commanding Rank for many years.

But Su Ping had never given up.

It might be difficult for Feifei to increase her combat power sufficiently for the mid-year Beast Tamer assessment. However, Su Ping had to do his utmost to enhance Xiao Qing's and Qian Yi's abilities before the deadline. He had to make these two little ones as strong as, if not stronger than, the Pet Beasts of Qin Xiaoxue and the others. After all, in a group fight, his two would be facing three!

Qian Yi might now have the potential to achieve this, so next up was Xiao Qing.

The 12,000 Paperman Record-specific Experience Points were swiftly depleted, and his Universal Experience Points reached 3,000.

If he wished, Su Ping could instantly perfect the External Incarnation skill, but he preferred to check the online forums first. He wanted to see what changes would occur after perfecting External Incarnation and how it differed from the analyses and research conducted by other Breeders on the world forum.

So, Su Ping took a deep breath and turned to look at the two individuals still in a daze. "Teachers, I'll go rest for a bit."

'Rest for a bit.' The sentiment resonated deeply with the two of them.

They both clearly needed time to digest and accept that they might have witnessed history in the making. They might be remembered for eternity because of this skill.
