Loopy Toad had already made copies of all the information Little Silver had given it. Nowadays, many cultivation arts and spirit techniques were no longer recorded in the form of jade tubes or scrolls. Admittedly, jade tubes and scrolls had very high collection value. It was true that jade tubes and scrolls had very high collectible value, but for modern cultivators, it was naturally much more convenient to transfer data on cultivation arts and spirit techniques through a computer than scrolls and jade tubes.
This included Huaxiu nation's largest depository of Buddhist texts, Magnificent Immortal's Depository of Buddhist Texts. All the cultivation art scrolls collected inside had data backups, but ordinary people couldn't get their hands on these data backups, as they were classified information at the national level.
There were now a lot of shops selling cultivation arts and spirit techniques on the Internet. If you chose the skill you wanted to buy and directly paid for it online, the merchant would transfer it to the cloud through a file-sharing software called "Skill Cloud."
However, only the buyer could receive and open the file, and it couldn't be shared a second time. If you wanted to share it, you had to buy another copy and share it as a gift.
Nowadays, copyright was very important when committing crimes, and cultivators' cultivation arts and spirit techniques were no exception. These so-called cultivation arts and spirit techniques were all created by cultivators (apart from Heavenly Dao). Hence, online shops selling cultivation arts and spirit techniques would now contact the creator of the cultivation arts and spirit techniques to buy the copyright or sign a profit sharing agreement.
If you bought the copyright, you would have to pay a huge sum of money in one go, and the subsequent profits from the sale of the cultivation arts and spirit techniques would belong to the copyright holder. Of course, the purchase of the copyright wasn't permanent, and was usually for ten years.
The other was a profit sharing agreement, which was a one-sided agreement between the creator of the cultivation arts and spirit techniques to share the copyright, and then split the profits fifty-fifty to achieve a win-win situation.
The vast majority of cultivators would choose the second option.
Of course, if it was a famous master, not only could they directly sell the copyright to the skill, they could even enjoy the subsequent profit sharing benefits.
To put it bluntly, this had a lot to do with the popularity of the creator of the cultivation arts and spirit techniques.
Of course, there were some cultivation arts and spirit techniques that couldn't find an owner, and the copyrights to these skills would all belong to the state. Furthermore, the copyrights to these famous masters and spirit techniques were currently stored in Magnificent Immortal's Depository of Buddhist Texts and wouldn't be sold publicly.

It was July 13th on Thursday in the twelfth week of the semester.
Father Wang wasn't at home today. Supposedly, he had gone to the editorial department with Lie Mengmeng.
The computer in the study happened to be empty, so Loopy Toad used Father Wang's computer to browse online.
After backing up the information that Little Silver had transferred to it, Loopy Toad specially browsed skill shops to check if there was any information on the sale of the Basic Dog Skills. In the end, the comprehensive search bar showed: zero … not a single one.
This was a normal situation, which just showed how long this set of Dog Skills had a long history. After all, it had been passed down from Dog Saint's era, when holy beasts hadn't been completely destroyed and Little Silver had still been very young.
The history of the Basic Dog Skills was perhaps comparable to that of the ten founding generals, or even much older than that group of people …
Loopy Toad flipped through the information on the "Basic Dog Skills" through its electronic browser, which it had only skimmed through on its phone before. There were seven forms of Dog Skills in total, but the first and second forms were level four. Loopy Toad felt that it could try to learn them with its own efforts.
Loopy Toad felt that relying on Little Master Ling for everything was a pretty spineless act …
After carefully reading the instructions in the information, Loopy Toad tried to circulate spirit energy through its meridians according to the instructions. In the end, it came to the conclusion that it could completely learn the first form of the Basic Dog Skills on its own … But starting from the second form, the Dog Skills were indeed more difficult. Loopy Toad would have to carefully ponder over them even if they were level four spirit techniques.
Loopy Toad cupped its chin in its hands as it pondered … Actually, at this time, it would be best if someone gave it some pointers.
While it was thinking this, Loopy Toad saw a pop-up advertisement pop up in the online skills shop it was browsing.
Loopy Toad stretched out its hand to close the pop-up, but in the end, it saw that it said: Still troubled by learning cultivation arts and spirit techniques? Well-known grandmasters, online allies, personal guidance … Any spirit technique is guaranteed to be taught.
This was the "spellmaster" that Loopy Toad had mentioned before, an emerging profession that specialized in teaching others cultivation arts and spirit techniques in a short period of time for profit.
Actually, Loopy Toad had only heard of it before, but had never personally encountered it. Now that it saw this pop-up advertisement, it was instantly a little curious …
Loopy Toad clicked on the ad, and the link directly jumped to the window of an online shop.
System prompt: Welcome to "Salted Fish Skills Shop," Customer Service Number 018 will be at your service.
Loopy Toad waited for a while, and the customer service little sister sent a smiley face. "Hello, how should I address you?"
Loopy Toad: "My surname is Two."
Customer Service Number 018: "… Sir or Madam?"
Loopy Toad: "I'm a dog, the domestic kind."
Customer Service Number 018: "…"
Doing her best to compose herself, this Customer Service Number 018 specially checked the credit history of Loopy Toad's account. When she found that its personal credit rating was excellent and had reached the level of a triple crown, she instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the seller's credit rating, this probably wasn't a prank …
Customer Service Number 018 realized that at that moment, the person sitting on the other side of her computer might really be a dog.
Furthermore, this actually wasn't anything to be surprised about. Nowadays, domestic spirit beasts were all intelligent, but there were actually very few who knew how to operate a computer.
But the truth was that Loopy Toad's credit record wasn't that high, because this computer belonged to Father Wang. Loopy Toad only realized that it had forgotten to switch accounts after the customer service little sister's first message!
But it didn't matter. In any case, it was just asking, and wasn't planning to buy anything …
On the other side, the customer service little sister had already composed herself and replied with a smile, "May I ask what Mr Dog Two needs?"
Seeing this form of address, it was Loopy Toad's turn to suck in a breath. "… I want to ask if your spellmasters can teach spirit beasts skills?"
Customer Service Number 018 nodded. "Of course! Our spellmasters are very well-rounded, and some of them have experience as spirit beast trainers. However, our spellmasters quote prices based on the difficulty of the skill. As long as Mr Dog Two accepts the price, we'll definitely be able to teach you. "
Loopy Toad: "I see!" In fact, Loopy Toad already suspected this shop of false advertising … because in this world, there were no spells that could be taught one hundred percent!
But Loopy Toad still thought this was very interesting, and replied, "Do you have any recommended spellmasters? Want to chat? "
Customer Service Number 018: "Alright, please wait a moment, Mr Dog Two, I'll help you switch to the spellmaster chat window."
About a minute later …
A system prompt appeared again: Technician Number 003 is ready to serve you …
Loopy Toad: "…" What freaking technician!
