The astral powers that had been tempered by the Heaven's Test were floating in the cell cores, as thin as mist.
However, the misty astral powers were sticky. They could absorb astral powers from the outside world and speed up Su Ping's cultivation.
Su Ping had benefited from the Heaven's Test. Not only was his astral powers refined, but his physical strength was also strengthened.
Even though he was still at the first level of the Solar Bulwark, Su Ping could tell that he was much more resilient than before.
Of course, that was only a matter of time. After all, anyone who had been struck by the Heaven's Test for such a long time would have become weak.
…
Su Ping went to some True Gods to test his strength.
After a round of fierce battles, Su Ping realized that when he unleashed his full strength, he could cause real damage at the legendary rank!
If he were to launch a sneak attack, he could even kill a battle pet warrior at the peak of the titled rank with one punch!
The seventh-rank could rival a battle pet warrior at the peak of the titled rank!
That was his own strength, not his battle pets.
When he reached the eighth-rank, he would be able to learn the "Limb Sharing" skill. For example, Su Ping could borrow his battle pets' senses, such as their sight and hearing. That would enhance his combat strength again!
…
Over ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
The training was over.
Su Ping went back to the store and sent the trained battle pets to the nursing pens or the storage space.
He didn't stay in the Demigod Burial for the past ten days. After all, he could only take a limited number of battle pets with him each time. After the training of the Earthen Turtle, Su Ping would send it back to the store and exchange it for another middle-rank battle pet that needed professional training.
After reaching the seventh-rank, the number of battle pets that Su Ping could take to the cultivation sites each time had increased to ten!
That was almost the maximum number of battle pets a titled battle pet warrior could take with him.
The training in the cultivation sites had greatly strengthened Su Ping's mind. He didn't learn any spirit skills but his mind was much larger than that of other battle pet warriors of the same rank.
…
The sun had risen. As usual, Su Ping went to the bathroom to wash up and shave.
Su Ping called Tang Ruyan out from the scroll after she changed into clean clothes.
As for the other Yan Bingyue, he didn't pay any attention to her. Yan Bingyue would never become his temporary employee. After all, he had killed her maid. He still remembered the scene. Yan Bingyue was different from Tang Ruyan. She had developed a real hatred for him.
Although it was hidden and not exposed, Su Ping was extremely sensitive to killing intent.
The other party harbored a grudge in his heart, and he had no intention of resolving it. Naturally, he would not allow such a dangerous existence to run around outside.
However, Su Ping did not intend to kill her.
He would leave her in the scroll for the time being. In the future, when he set up temporary bases in some cultivation sites to plant some herbs, he could ask Yan Bingyue to look after them for him.
To put it simply, he would be imprisoned for the rest of his life and would never be able to free himself.
It sounded a little cruel, but this was how the world worked. Once you became enemies, you would die, and I would die. There was no such thing as cruelty.
…
When Tang Ruyan went to wash up, Su Ping heard the whispers outside. He went to open the door.
There was a sea of people outside the store.
It was still early in the morning, but the customers were all waiting in line.
Since the city government had unsealed the street, many customers had swarmed in. Since the city government was promoting Su Ping's store, it had become the most popular place in the Longjiang Base City.
Some of the regular customers were excited to see Su Ping. Finally, the store was open!
Thanks to his previous experience, Su Ping wasn't frightened by the scene. He remained calm. He stepped aside and went back to the counter. Tang Ruyan had finished washing her face. She didn't put on any makeup, but her cheeks were white and clean. She was a natural beauty with a soft glow effect.
Many customers' eyes were transfixed when they saw such a beautiful girl.
Some old virgins purposely pretended to be shy. They blushed and didn't have the courage to look at her in the eyes.
Tang Ruyan was getting used to her new identity. Another day was full of energy.
She put on a kind smile and greeted the customer warmly.
"Hey, what's your name? Can I have your number?"
"Hmm, piss off."
"Miss, I have a house and a car. I just need someone to give me warmth."
"Yes, my son is good."
"Miss, open your hand. I have something to give you … Me, do you want it?"
Crack!
The sound of bones cracking was heard.
Tang Ruyan asked gently, "Do you want it?"
The new customers who tried to strike up a conversation with her were all defeated.
Some of the regular customers who had experienced this before were gloating. They could not stop laughing, as if they could see their own miserable past.
After being rejected by Tang Ruyan, some customers behaved themselves. They no longer dared to provoke this star-level beauty.
It was said that roses had thorns. But this beauty was not thorns. She was covered in thorns. She was like a bush of thorns!
Some customers who had suffered before stood in line obediently under Tang Ruyan's kind hospitality.
Su Ping paid no attention to the "interactions" between the customers and Tang Ruyan.
Interacting with customers once in a while could improve their relationship.
He took care of the customers and gave them their pets one by one.
Some customers thanked him and left after receiving their pets. Some wanted to take a test. Su Ping asked Tang Ruyan to take them to the test room.
As the number of customers increased, Su Ping felt that the store was short of staff.
Tang Ruyan had to entertain customers in the lobby, guide them to the test room, and maintain order by the door. She was quite busy.
As for Joanna, she was also an employee but she had to send the customers' battle pets into the storage space. After all, Su Ping could not make the customers' battle pets disappear right in front of their faces. That was his store's secret. It would be shocking if it was exposed. Not even the legendary battle pet warriors would be able to understand such an ability.
Su Ping met many young people from major families while he entertained the customers.
He didn't know any of them, but they told him that they were from a certain family.
Clearly, the seniors in their families had arranged for them to be there to support Su Ping's business.
Su Ping nodded to show that he would remember their families.
As for the reward, he would just bully them less.
Soon, Su Ping met Qin Shuhai. Qin Shuhai was in the crowd as well. He was dressed in a low-key manner and no one recognized him.
Only some young people from other families recognized him. But they kept their mouths shut and didn't dare to make eye contact with Qin Shuhai. They lowered their heads and stayed in the line.
"Brother Su, your store is really popular."
It was Qin Shuhai's turn. Qin Shuhai stepped forward and greeted him warmly.
Su Ping had made one hundred million the day before. Qin Shuhai went back and told the old man that he had used the mysterious girl's name to claim the credit. The old man reimbursed all his expenses on the spot.
"It's okay."
Su Ping answered casually. "You must be here to pick up your pets. Wait a moment."
Qin Shuhai nodded with a smile.
While Su Ping's store was popular, Qin Shuhai wasn't jealous of him at all.
His ambition was to become a legendary battle pet warrior. Business was for the common people. So what if he could make a lot of money?
Qin Shuhai couldn't figure out why Su Ping would waste his talent at such a young age.
Su Ping sent a telepathic message to Joanna, telling her to bring the Earthen Turtle here.
He had to admit that having Joanna around was a lot more convenient. Tang Ruyan might not be able to command a ninth-rank beast like the Earthen Turtle, which had been trained by him.
Soon, the Earthen Turtle walked out from the pet room.
"What?"
Qin Shuhai was surprised by the appearance of the Earthen Turtle.
There were actually spikes growing out of its hard shell?
Surprised, Qin Shuhai sent a telepathic message to the Earthen Turtle and felt the bond of the contract.
If it weren't for the familiarity of the contract, Qin Shuhai would have thought that Su Ping had given him a new battle pet.
However, the Earthen Turtle's appearance was strange. It seemed that the Earthen Turtle had mutated.
Qin Shuhai's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Su Ping suspiciously. He had heard of some rapid training methods. That was to inject some special potions into battle pets so that the battle pets would mutate quickly. Was that what Su Ping's store was doing?
But such special potions would often have serious side effects.
Qin Shuhai's eyes flickered. He found it hard to describe his feelings.
When the Earthen Tortoise reached the counter, Su Ping took out the note from its forehead and handed it to Qin Shuhai. "This is the result of the Earthen Tortoise's training. Take a look. If you're worried, go to the test room in my store. The Earthen Tortoise should be able to fight a battle pet at the upper position of the ninth rank."
Qin Shuhai took the note and read it. He was stunned by Su Ping's words.
On the note, he saw several famous skills.
Did … his Earthen Turtle learn those skills?!
How was that possible? It had only been one night. He could believe that the Earthen Turtle's strength had increased. But learning skills was not something that could be done with potions!
Qin Shuhai looked at Su Ping and then at Joanna who was standing on the Earthen Turtle's back. Qin Shuhai put on a smile. "Nice to meet you, Miss Joanna. Brother Su, what are you talking about? How can I not trust your training? I don't need any tests."
Su Ping darted him a glance but didn't try to persuade him. Qin Shuhai would most likely do the test outside if he didn't do it in his store. The result would be the same anyway. Su Ping had done what he had to do.
"Okay, if there's nothing else, you can put away your battle pet. Also, if you find it useful, you can introduce me to some big customers," said Su Ping.
Qin Shuhai was a tool for him to build up his reputation among the upper class.
The more titled battle pet warriors he could attract, the better his business would be.
After all, one customer for advanced professional training was worth one hundred customers for low-level training. The difference was huge.
Under the supervision of the system, Su Ping had to put people first. He couldn't choose his customers and refuse them all. He had to let the customers fight for him!
"Sure, sure. I will introduce you to some," Qin Shuhai promised with a smile. He didn't have the courage to say no when that legendary girl was there.
That being said, Su Ping was upset.
He was afraid that Su Ping would say something else, so he left in a hurry.
Qin Shuhai went back to the Qin Family as soon as he left Su Ping's store. He went directly to a battle stadium in the Qin Family's yard.
He used his communicator to call one of the clan elders over.
"Practice?"
"Yes, just for a little practice."
With that said, Qin Shuhai went to the stage. He summoned the Earthen Turtle and waited for the elder to come.
…
In the store.
After seeing Qin Shuhai off, Su Ping received a few more customers and closed the store.
Next, he had to tell Joanna something about the store. Then, he planned to finish the mission from the Breeders' Association. He had business every day and no one would compete with him. The sooner he could finish the mission and get the reward, the better.
Su Ping needed the skill book more than the energy points he could earn every day.
After all, the skill book might not even be available in the system store.
It all depended on luck.
Even if there were, the skill book would be expensive.
