After Gu Beichen left, Su Ping took the Fantasy Beast to the nursing pens in the pet room. Three batches of Fantasy Beasts had been sent away that day. Many of the nursing pens were empty.
Once the Fantasy Beast was in the nursing pen, its uneasiness was soon soothed. It was immersed in the comfortable nourishment of the Spirit Qi.
Su Ping smiled at the Fantasy Beast.
He went back to the store, pulled down the shutter door, closed the door, and said to upgrade the store in his mind.
"25 nursing pens established. Incubation Pool is at level 3. The requirement for upgrading the store to the second level has been met. Upgrading commencing …"
The more than ten thousand energy points that Su Ping had gone to great lengths to accumulate were instantly reduced to a fraction of the energy points he had accumulated.
"The upgrade will take one hour. During this time, the store will be closed," the system said.
Su Ping stayed in the store to cultivate, having nothing to do.
An hour passed. With a ding, the system said that the upgrade had been completed.
At the same time, the instructions for the two new functions in the store appeared in Su Ping's mind.
Su Ping's eyes glowed. He pulled up the list of cultivation windows at once. Next to the "Enter" button under the cultivation window, there was a "Shadow Clone Training". It was a little purple man.
When he found the right cultivation plane, he would choose the Shadow Clone Training option. He would be able to create his own shadow clone and enter the cultivation plane to train his pets.
However, the Shadow Clone Training function came with a charge. The price was one-tenth of the price of the ticket to the cultivation plane, which was equal to the price of one death in the cultivation plane.
Su Ping felt he was being cheated. But he was used to the system that loved money as much as its own life.
Su Ping closed the cultivation window. He went to the pet room and said the name "Cultivation Space".
A swirl that looked like a miniature black hole appeared. Inside the swirl was the cultivation space, similar to the summoning space.
The size of the cultivation space was related to the level of the store. At the moment, only fifty pets could be stored in the cultivation space.
With the cultivation space, Su Ping was finally free from the nursing pens in the store. Of course, there were no nursing pens at the moment. There were still some vacant nursing pens. Su Ping told the pets to stay in the nursing pens. When the nursing pens were full, he could put the pets into the cultivation space.
After checking the cultivation space and the dummy cultivation function, Su Ping opened the system store.
It was now a Level 2 shop, and the system shop had also been upgraded to Level 2. When it was still a Level 1 system shop, it sold Awakening Potions and Basic Beast-Catching Rings.
The Awakening Potion was a special item that the system had specially prepared for its host. It was not sold after that and could not be refreshed anymore. That being said, the elementary beast-catching ring was a good thing. It could capture pets below the seventh-rank with a 100% success rate.
Even for advanced pets, the probability of capturing them was low. The Soul Pet was a legendary artifact.
When people wanted to capture pets, they would have to be strong enough to defeat the pets. But beast-catching rings were not necessary. Even an average person could use the elementary beast-catching rings to capture sixth-rank beasts.
Of course, if ordinary people entered the barren area, they would have been killed by the demonic beasts in an instant, without even having the chance to use them.
That being said, the beast-catching rings did not rely on the strength of the owner. The beast-catching rings were powerful by themselves. It was unrealistic to ask the average person to capture sixth-rank beasts. Battle pet warriors at the third or fourth rank could easily capture sixth-rank beasts as long as they had a good eye.
Besides, the beast-catching rings were effective for sixth-rank battle pet warriors as well. Usually, sixth-rank battle pet warriors would not necessarily be able to defeat sixth-rank beasts.
Su Ping was looking forward to the upgraded Level 2 system shop. As soon as he opened it, he saw five items popping out. Previously, there were only three items in the Level 1 system shop. Now, there were two more items. Five items in total.
The five items would be refreshed after 24 hours. New items might appear, or they might be the same ones. Of course, if he paid money, he could spend one hundred energy points to refresh the items.
Hmm.
That was cheating him.
Even if Su Ping was greedy, he would never spend energy points to refresh the items. One hundred energy points was equivalent to ten thousand crystals. He could afford to wait for one day. As for paying money … he would never do that for the rest of his life.
Su Ping noticed the beast-catching rings at first glance. This time, it was not the elementary one, but the intermediate one!
Intermediate beast-catching rings —
100% chance of capturing seventh-rank beasts.
80% chance of capturing eighth-rank beasts.
50% chance of capturing ninth-rank beasts.
1.25% chance of capturing Beast Kings.
Su Ping's eyes glowed. That was awesome! That effect was awesome!
He took a look at the price and was relieved. Luckily, one thousand energy points was only ten times the price of an elementary beast-catching ring. Luckily, the price was not a hundred times higher.
One thousand energy points equaled one hundred thousand energy points. The lowest price for an average seventh-rank beast would be five hundred thousand energy points. Eighth-rank beasts would start at two or three million energy points, not to mention ninth-rank beasts. Even the weakest ones would be priced at tens of millions.
Of course, that was only for the adult beasts. The price for the infant beasts would be much lower. After all, they would have to be trained.
At the same time, some extremely popular and rare pets, such as the pets of the dragon family or the Ashura pets of the demon family, were extremely rare. On the other hand, pets in their infancy stage were more valuable because such pets had high aptitudes to begin with. If master trainers were to train them carefully, they could be turned into pets of the ninth rank or even Beast Kings!
Such beasts would be much more powerful than those that grew up in the wild.
"This intermediate beast-catching ring is such a good deal. If I use it to capture ninth-rank beasts, the success rate will be 50%. Even if I'm unlucky and have to use three beast-catching rings to capture a ninth-rank beast, that's still a great deal. It's also effective on Beast Kings. But the success rate is so low that it's negligible."
Su Ping's mouth was watering. It was a pity that he didn't even have one thousand energy points. He couldn't afford it.
He looked at the other four items. There was no Awakening Fluid, not even after the store was upgraded. However, there was an Original Force Pellet among the four items! It was an intermediate Original Force Pellet!
Su Ping had received three elementary Original Force Pellets when he completed the mission. Each of the elementary Original Force Pellets had improved his astral powers by one rank.
But there was an intermediate Original Force Pellet on sale!
If the effect of the intermediate Original Force Pellet was as good as the elementary Original Force Pellet, would it be able to improve the strength of an intermediate battle pet warrior?
However, the price of the Original Force Pellet was quite high.
It was equivalent to one million astral coins.
Considering the effect of the Original Force Pellet, the price was high but not expensive at all. If the rich people from the financial groups knew about the Original Force Pellet, they would go crazy over it. For those people with billions of net worth, they could earn millions or more every day just by doing nothing.
Su Ping had to admit that, while the system loved money as much as it loved its life, the items it sold were quite nice. Of course, that might have something to do with the system's vision. Things that Su Ping regarded as treasures were nothing more than garbage to the system.
It was a pity that Su Ping didn't have enough energy points for such a good thing. The twenty thousand energy points he had earned that day had been used to upgrade the Pool of Incubation and the store. If he wanted to buy the Original Force Pellet, he would have to wait until later.
"Energy points …" Su Ping wrung his hands. An opportunity to improve his astral powers was right in front of him but he couldn't buy it because he didn't have enough energy points. That was painful.
After 24 hours, those items would be refreshed.
Once, there was a sincere opportunity in front of him, but he was poor.
If they could meet again, Su Ping wanted to tell them (with tears in his eyes), "I have enough money to buy you back!"
Apart from the Original Force Pellet, the other three items were middle-rank pet food and two strange items. One was the feather of a Cloud Dream Bird and the other was the scale of a Deep Sea Thunder Fish. Their effects were unknown.
Su Ping speculated that those items were most likely materials that had special uses for some pets. Judging from the price, those items were not cheaper than the Original Force Pellet.
Su Ping closed the store. He was dispirited. It was as if the girl he loved had taken off her clothes and was waiting for him but he couldn't lift her up.
The most painful thing in the world was the distance that was so close and so far away.
Su Ping opened the shutter door with melancholy and waited for customers. However, it was already late. He waited until eight or nine o 'clock in the evening but he didn't see anyone else. The students attracted by the flyers must have been there.
