"Professional training?"
Qin Shaotian darted a look at Su Ping. He didn't think Su Ping was being perfunctory. After some thought, Qin Shaotian said, "Sure, I'll have professional training as well. Can I train any type of pet?"
"Yes, all types."
Qin Shaotian was about to summon his battle pet when he suddenly remembered something. He looked around and saw that many people were still waiting in line behind him. They seemed to be impatient, complaining that he was wasting too much time.
He paused and thought for a moment. All of a sudden, he opened up a summoning space that was several meters tall. A battle pet with an enchanting figure jumped out. It was the Wind Siren that he had used the day before.
The appearance of the Wind Siren quieted down the people in the line. They were all surprised.
Those who had watched Group D the day before knew that the Wind Siren was Qin Shaotian's battle pet.
In the previous matches, Qin Shaotian had used the Wind Siren to easily defeat his opponents, which had attracted a lot of attention.
They didn't expect that the Wind Siren would show up again.
"That is an adult Wind Siren, at the seventh rank, right?"
"So, he is at least a fifth-rank battle pet warrior."
"He can't be that Qin Shaotian, right?"
"How is that possible? Who is Qin Shaotian? Why is he here? Why is he waiting in line like us?"
"How come there are imitators so soon? Well, well, I've been thinking about getting a Wind Siren. We can't afford a dragon but we can have a Wind Siren."
"The price of the Wind Siren has risen recently. Let's wait for a while. Besides, didn't the experts say that the Wind Siren is best paired with close-range battle pets? Unless you can be like Qin Shaotian and be more terrifying than your close-range battle pets."
The people in the line began to discuss in a low voice. The Wind Siren that had been popular since the day before reminded people of the battle the day before. They were all excited.
"Is this one okay?"
Qin Shaotian ignored the discussion and asked Su Ping in a low voice.
Su Ping took a look and heaved a sigh. He declined politely, "Not for the time being. The store cannot train advanced battle pets at the moment. We only accept low and middle-rank battle pets."
He didn't have a choice.
If he wanted to train advanced battle pets, he would have to train a battle pet with a high aptitude before he could unlock the advanced battle pet training service.
According to the system, the pets produced by the store had to be of the highest quality. If the store couldn't even train battle pets with good aptitudes, how could the store have the nerve to accept the training of advanced pets?
Su Ping really wanted to say that he was very embarrassed. He was handsome enough!
However, it was useless even if he said this. The System had interacted with him for a long time and was starting to become smart. It didn't talk nonsense with him.
"You can't train advanced battle pets?"
Qin Shaotian stared blankly for a moment before revealing a hint of dissatisfaction. "Didn't you just say that the dragon beast was nurtured by you? Could it be that it doesn't count?"
"Of course."
"Isn't that …"
Su Ping was speechless. "Who told you that the dragon was an advanced battle pet?"
Qin Shaotian was stunned.
What did he mean?
Could it be that the dragon was not an advanced battle pet?
What a joke!
How could the dragon not be an advanced battle pet with that level of energy and combat strength? It would be normal if the dragon had reached the eighth rank. It would be abnormal if the dragon had just reached the seventh rank!
But Su Ping was saying that the dragon wasn't an advanced battle pet?
Did he mean that the dragon wasn't even at the seventh rank?!
Qin Shaotian wanted to take off his sunglasses so that Su Ping could see his expression. At the moment, the words "Do you think I'm an idiot?" were written all over his face, along with three strong exclamation marks.
"It's only at the peak of the sixth rank. I still can't train it when it reaches the seventh rank," Su Ping said.
Qin Shaotian was having a headache about the training.
Since the Elite League had started and he had been doing a series of advertisements, his store had been receiving a large number of customers from different fields. Not only were there students, but there were also people who had been in society for a long time, such as explorers or members of some private adventurer groups.
Most of the battle pets brought by those people were at the seventh rank. Qin Shaotian could only say that he couldn't train them for the time being!
Every time he said that, Qin Shaotian would feel that he was losing money. His heart ached.
But rules were rules.
The system was set in stone.
In order to earn the training fees for advanced battle pets, he had to train a battle pet with a high aptitude.
Qin Shaotian had tried it in the cultivation site. It was difficult!
At the moment, the best battle pet he had managed to train was above average. It seemed that he only needed one more step to reach the high aptitude. But to do so was difficult!
It was even more difficult than reaching the legendary rank from the titled rank!
Su Ping speculated that to reach the high aptitude level, the increase in strength would be dramatic. Perhaps, a battle pet at the sixth rank would have to be able to unleash the strength of a legendary battle pet to qualify as high aptitude!
At the seventh rank, a battle pet at the legendary rank would still be considered above average aptitude.
That could be seen from the Little Skeleton, which was at the intermediate position of the seventh rank.
Therefore, the Little Skeleton could no longer enjoy the benefits of the training in the Demigod Burial. The Little Skeleton could enter the Demigod Burial but once it died there, it would die for good. Su Ping didn't dare to let the Little Skeleton fight in the Demigod Burial. The Little Skeleton could only live in the spring.
As for the top aptitude level, Su Ping didn't even dare to think about it.
The aptitude assessment had been done since the beginning of time. To stand out among millions … millions … millions of people of the same species and reach the high aptitude level was even more difficult than becoming a god!
He seemed to have reached a bottleneck in his training.
That had little to do with the strength of the cultivation site. The Demigod Burial was good enough. The Demigod Burial was one of the best among the advanced cultivation sites. Above the advanced cultivation sites were the top cultivation sites.
The death rate in the top cultivation sites was high. He could afford the entrance fee. However, if he were to die several times, he would have to spend more energy points than the entrance fee. That would be too expensive.
Besides, for the battle pets that had yet to reach the legendary rank, it didn't make much of a difference whether they were in the top cultivation sites or the advanced ones.
They would all be killed within seconds.
On the other hand, there were more powerful creatures in the top cultivation sites and the battle pets would die faster. Sometimes, they would be killed before they could even react. That wouldn't serve as a training exercise. Without an unlimited number of deaths, the benefits of going to the top cultivation sites would be less than going to the advanced ones.
At the moment, the Demigod Burial was filled with dangerous environments that could kill the battle pet warriors below the legendary rank instantly or plunge them into despair!
Su Ping had asked Joanna to arrange for the Dark Dragon Hound and the Purple Python to go to some extremely dangerous places to fight. They would be stimulated by repeated deaths in those dangerous environments.
However, the effect was minimal.
The stimulation and stress of death had almost drained the Dark Dragon Hound and the Purple Python's potential.
Unless the Dark Dragon Hound suddenly learned a powerful legendary skill, such as the Little Skeleton's [Gate of the Dead].
That way, the Dark Dragon Hound and the Purple Python's combat strength would increase by several points. Reaching the top 10 would be a piece of cake.
But that would depend on luck. It wasn't something that could be learned by fighting to the death. For example, if a student couldn't answer a question, no matter how hard they racked their brains, they would still not be able to do it. Sometimes, when they relaxed, they would have a flash of inspiration and they would be able to figure it out.
The only thing Su Ping could do at the moment was to wait for the Purple Python and the Dark Dragon Hound to be enlightened.
But waiting was not a solution. Every time he saw a customer like Qin Shaotian leave in disappointment, he would feel even more upset.
"Ding!"
"It has been detected that the host has refused the advanced training service for one hundred times. Triggered a side quest!"
"Quest sequence: Trainer's Training."
"Quest 1: Become an elementary trainer."
"Quest description: The host should become a qualified trainer as soon as possible so that the host can manage the pet store well. As the owner, how can you know nothing about training skills? You have failed in your duty!"
The system's voice suddenly popped up in Su Ping's head. Trainer's quest? Hadn't he become a trainer?
"Hmm!"
The system said, "The host is not a trainer. You are not a trainer. Please get started as soon as possible and become an excellent trainer."
Su Ping didn't know what to say.
Just tell me what you want to tell me. What the heck!
He felt that the system was becoming more and more humane. Had it been infected by eavesdropping on his thoughts?
"Trainer's skills? Are you talking about the energy combing?" Su Ping asked in his mind.
He had seen other trainers' videos on the Internet. Those trainers were of low or middle-rank and they relied on the videos to make extra money. Still, he had learned a lot about the methods and skills shown in the videos.
But that was all.
He had thought about borrowing those skills. But he didn't think they would work well for battle pets like the Dark Dragon Hound.
For example, he could use the trainer's astral powers to nourish certain parts of the battle pet's body.
For example, he could make the battle pet's claws or limbs thicker …
Su Ping wondered what the hell was going on. Not only would the trainer's astral powers be consumed, but the effect would be mediocre. After a long period of nourishment, the battle pet's claws and fangs would become harder and sharper. But the progress was too slow.
If he were to learn those skills, he would rather go back to torturing … no, training those battle pets. The improvement would be minimal, but it would be better than what he had seen on the Internet. Besides, those skills would affect his own cultivation.
"Energy combing is only an entry-level training skill."
The system continued, "There are two types of entry-level training skills: strengthening and enlightening.
"Strengthening includes skill strengthening, strength strengthening, energy strengthening …
"Enlightening is to enlighten the pet's intelligence and increase the chances of learning talent …"
…
"Sir?"
While the system was talking about entry-level trainers, Su Ping was pulled back to reality. He looked up and saw that it was Qin Shaotian. He realized that he had been lost in thought for a while.
"Sir, when can I have advanced battle pets trained?" Qin Shaotian asked. Su Ping said that he couldn't have advanced battle pets trained yet. Qin Shaotian wanted to know when he could have advanced battle pets. If the results were as good as he thought, he might consider having the dragon and the Bloody Servant go there as well.
