The Astral Pet Store
Chapter 131
Astral Pet Store – Chapter 131
As the Hell Dragon entered a period of growth, its strength drastically increased to the fifth rank!
When the Hell Dragon reaches adulthood, its strength will reach the seventh rank!
On this front, the Hell Dragon progressed through the same stage as the other dragons. But there is one thing different. Hell Dragons could display more powerful abilities than dragons of the same rank!
The fifth rank Inferno Dragon can easily defeat other rank six beasts. Even some rank six beasts from the more ferocious demon families would be harmed when compared to the Hell Dragon.
For dragons, fighting a higher ranked creature was common. Dragons that cannot do this are useless!
Hell Dragon Su Ping had spent almost his entire childhood in the dragon king's inheritance land.
For a third of this time, the Hell Dragon remained inside the dragon pillar, facing the attacks and threats from the dragon king's remnant soul.
For the remaining two-thirds of the time, the Hell Dragon had fought against various ferocious beasts within the dragon-scale land with Su Ping!
While the Hell Dragon had been born not long before, in less than half a month, even including the time spent at the cultivation site, it was, The Hell Dragon had experienced hundreds of battles of various scales and had died over a hundred times!
Compared to other dragons from the same growth period, the Hell Dragon had over 10 times combat experience!
Even some adult dragons would lose to the Hell Dragon in combat experience. After all, for most dragons, they would enjoy a smooth voyage after surviving a difficult time in their early stages.
Thanks to this rich experience, the Hell Dragon had taken on many combat skills and abilities. It could defeat other Hell Dragons of the fifth rank easily and even match a dragon of the sixth rank!
If the Hell Dragon were to compete with other average beasts, it would be within the ability of the Hell Dragon to fight a seventh rank beast after fashion. Also, a rank seven beast might not be able to defeat or kill a Hell Dragon if the latter were to commit to escape!
Su Ping chanted an identification spell and saw that the abilities of the Hell Dragon had improved a little.
With further progress, Inferno Dragon's talent could reach below average grades.
Compared to all the Hell Dragons born since the initial chaos, Su Ping Hell Dragon could be considered excellent if it had below average talent.
In addition to Inferno Dragon, Purple Python and Dark Dragon Hound had also undergone major changes. After reaching the growth stage, the Purple Python was nearly six meters long and had reached the fourth rank as well.
Pets from combat families are usually the weakest among all pets of the same rank but from other families. But this Purple Python was different. It could even trap and kill beasts from the elemental family in the middle position of the fifth rank!
The purple snake scales and the cyan color of the Purple Python became extremely resistant to outside forces, due to the experience accumulated in many extreme environments of the dragon scale land. Purple Python could fend off ordinary attacks with fire, thunder, and poison.
Purple Python is also very powerful.
In general, pets from combat families do not have a diverse skill portfolio other than physical strength. In terms of physical strength, the Purple Python had reached an extreme!
In order to strengthen the Purple Python's resolve, Su Ping gave the most crude treatment. He would throw the Purple Python into all kinds of fatal and extreme environments. Because of this, the Purple Python had died four or five hundred times, more than the combined deaths of other pets.
How often did the Purple Python die to achieve such a large number of deaths in the same period of time!?
The Dark Dragon Hound was in a period of growth to begin with, as it had evolved from Managarm. With seven to eight days of training, the strength of the Dark Dragon Hound had reached the sixth rank when in reality, he could compete with the demon family pets at the top of the seventh rank.
The Dark Dragon Hound itself could be a domineering presence in Phoenix Peak Academy.
After dark, Su Ping called the pet owners one by one so that they could go and retrieve their pets the next day. Then, he closed the shop and went home.
At home, Su Ping did not see Su Lingyue. With the help of his astral strength, he noticed that he was cultivating in his room upstairs. It was rare for him not to provoke it, or ramble around to divulge information.
Su Ping guessed it was because he went to the store and understood what he could. She knew that she would not answer him even if she had other questions. Therefore, he did not appear willingly to avoid being insulted.
Su Ping was happy not to see it. He sat down for dinner. His mother went to share some environmental stories with him. From this, Su Ping was convinced that Su Lingyue had not told her mother about the store. Although he could not show the reason, he felt relieved.
It saved him from the trouble of making up stories.
After all, Li Qingru had treated him well and she could have treated Li Qingru the same way as she treated Su Lingyue. If Li Qingru had to ask, explaining to her would be troublesome.
After dinner, Su Ping headed upstairs to cultivate.
A worldly night passed.
Next day.
The brothers had breakfast together and parted ways.
“Bapak. Su!”
The men ran towards him when they saw him. They seem to be quite anxious.
Su Ping recognized some familiar faces but for a moment, he could not remember their names. He nodded and went to open the door.
Su Ping reminded them, “Those who came to pick up the pets lined up first.”
Five students stood in rows at once. They were all familiar with Su Ping rules.
“Bapak. Su.” The first was Zhang Baoxing. After she mentioned the name of her pet, she asked an additional question, “Are you going to give a lecture at the academy today?”.
Other students also want to know the answer.
Su Ping shook his head. “My lecture is on Wednesday.”
“Oh.” They're disappointed. But soon, they realized that they had dug up information about Su Ping's lecture. This is important news. For first graders, this is sensational news.
After all, Su Ping lectures were available to first-graders.
Su Ping took out their pets one by one. They were surprised and delighted to find the incredible progress their pet had made after a few tests. After they expressed their appreciation to Su Ping, they brought their pets and boarded the taxi they had booked earlier to head to the academy.
They take advantage of every little bit of time to come and pick up their pets before class starts.
After he expelled those students, Su Ping took care of the pets of the other three students, who made 120,000 coins for him.
After all the students left, Su Ping went back inside. Just like before, he chose a few pets for the dummy trainer as he headed to the dragon king's own inheritance land. After an hour of training, Su Ping returned to the store and selected another set of pets to be trained by the puppet. Meanwhile, he sat in the shop and poured some water to rest for a while.
Shortly after, someone came.
Su Ping looked up. It was the young man who had come to train his Wing Beast.
Tang Lang was surprised to see this store so empty. If he had not seen Su Ping drinking water there, Tang Lang would have thought he had entered the wrong place, or the shop had been rented out to someone else.
“Master, why is no one here today?”
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. “They have class today. Don't you know?”
Tang Lang stood there for a moment before he realized that it was indeed Monday. He visited because he had asked for sick leave from school.
Tang Lang turned into a polite tone and asked, “Master, can you train my pet again?”
Su Ping nodded. “Give me money first.”
Tang Lang was happy that Su Ping did not reject him. The first one paid 100,000 and summoned his Wing Beast.
“Master, can you train advanced pets here?” While Tang Lang handed the Wing Beast to Su Ping, he threw another question carefully.
While he knew the answer, he still hoped. If Su Ping wanted to, he could train his best pet by Su Ping.
“Not now,” replied Su Ping.
Tang Lang was interested. “Then, when can you?”
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. He wanted to start training advanced pets more than anyone. Unfortunately, the service remains unlocked because he does not train pets that can achieve above-average talent.
“It looks like I have to include preparation for professional training in the agenda,” Su Ping said to himself. He answered the young man's question right after, “I can't decide the current date. But I guess the slowest within a month.”
Tang Lang's eyes shone. In a month? If that time could be shortened, then he could enjoy this service before the start of the Elite League, right?
The Elite League will last for three months. The choice and procedure are very complicated. In the early stages, he was able to survive with his pet. If later, the Su Ping shop could offer training for advanced pets, he would stand out even more!
