"You!"
Shameless!
Su Lingyue realized that this hateful guy had become even more shameless than before. He wasn't that hard to deal with before. At least, he would admit defeat after she beat him up a few times. He wouldn't dare to confront her face to face. But at the moment, his wings had hardened.
Did he think that he could bully her again just because he had awakened his battle pet?
"So, you don't know the rank of battle pet warriors! I'm at the intermediate position of the third rank. But you … "Su Lingyue's eyes grew cold. Astral powers surged out from her body. She was ready to teach Su Ping a lesson and let him know that she was still someone he could not resist!
"What are you doing?" All of a sudden, Li Qingru walked in with a plate of sliced apples in her hand. She was going to let the siblings eat first.
Su Lingyue's attack was interrupted. While she was fuming, Su Ping smiled and said, "Nothing. I'm just checking Su Lingyue's hair."
What the hell? Checking hair?
Su Lingyue almost vomited blood. The anger that she had just suppressed surged up again.
Of course, Li Qingru knew about the relationship between the siblings. She said grumpily, "Don't talk nonsense. I just told you to get along well with each other. Why are you so disobedient?"
Su Ping noticed that she was getting angry. "Okay, I see."
Li Qingru shook her head helplessly. She put down the apple and said something else before she went to the kitchen.
After Li Qingru left, Su Lingyue grabbed the plate of apples on the table and said coldly, "I won't forget what happened today!"
"Okay."
"Hmm."
"Huh?"
"Hmm!"
The siblings didn't talk much but they both knew what the other meant.
After dinner, Su Ping went upstairs by himself. Su Lingyue looked at his back. She had wanted to ask him what he had been summoned to do, but after what had just happened, she didn't want to take the initiative to ask him. It would feel like she was begging him.
After he went upstairs, he lay on the bed and cultivated as usual. He had to admit that the Chaos Star Chart's method of cultivation was too domineering. He could forcibly absorb the astral powers around him. If he wanted to, he could even take away the astral powers in Su Lingyue's room so that she couldn't cultivate.
After less than a week of training, his combat power had increased from 3.5 to 3.7, which was a full 0.2 increase! This could already be considered as half a minor rank increase. Previously, he was at the middle position of the third order, but now he was at the upper position of the third order. At this rate, he would be able to break through to the fourth order in about a week's worth of cultivation!
With Su Ping's current strength and the Solar Bulwark's first level, he was strong enough to kill a lot of fifth-rank beasts. If he were to enhance himself further, he might even be able to fight a sixth-rank beast.
"If I can reach the second level of the Fiendcelestial Body, my body will be as strong as a Rank Eight or Rank Nine Demonic Beast. Only then will I be able to protect myself." Su Ping thought to himself. He had seen the dangers of the barren area. Although his life was quite comfortable, he did not dare to relax.
A night of cultivation passed.
The next day.
After breakfast, Su Ping and Su Lingyue looked at each other without saying anything. After breakfast, they rode to the store.
As soon as they arrived at the store, Su Ping saw a girl standing by the door. She was slim and dressed conservatively. She wore a long shirt with long sleeves and a coffee-colored jacket. She would look around every now and then, as if she was waiting for something.
Su Ping locked his bike to a tree by the door and tied it to the tree with an iron chain in case the bike thief stole it.
The woman glanced at him but didn't say anything. She remained indifferent until Su Ping took out the key and opened the shutter door. Her expression finally changed into one of astonishment.
Su Ping walked into the store after opening the door. The girl followed him in and asked, "Do you want to buy something?"
He found the girl familiar as if he had seen her somewhere before. But he didn't see her when he asked Su Yanying to distribute the flyers. Was she attracted by the flyers sent out by Su Yanying's subordinate?
"Are you … the owner of this store?" Jiang Hanxue sized up the young man in front of her. He was too young to be the owner. She found him familiar. All of a sudden, she remembered that she had seen him the day before.
Her expression changed as she remembered what she had seen the day before.
Su Ping nodded. "Yes. Are you looking for a pet, a pet trainer, or pet food?"
After a moment of silence, Jiang Hanxue asked, "You went to our academy yesterday, didn't you? Was that gifted Lightning Rat trained here?"
"Your academy?" Su Ping knew that it was indeed someone who had been recruited by the flyers. It seemed that the 20 yuan and several stacks of printed flyers had not gone to waste. He nodded. "That's right. I'm here to train pets. Do you want to train pets too?"
Jiang Hanxue was relieved that Su Ping admitted it. She was right.
She and Su Yanying had been rivals for a long time. Jiang Hanxue didn't pay much attention to Su Yanying, but the other busybodies in the class had been comparing them. Over time, Jiang Hanxue began to pay attention to Su Yanying and had a good understanding of her.
Based on her observation of Su Yanying, Su Yanying was a genius second only to Jiang Hanxue, but she wasn't good at pet training. Besides, the Lightning Rat was too gifted. If Su Yanying had such a trump card, she would have used it in the class exams. Su Yanying wasn't a gloomy person who would hold back her trump card.
Jiang Hanxue had found this place because she got a flyer from one of her classmates the day before. She wanted to find out if the flyer was real or not. But she had found the answer. It was just that the answer was a bit strange. She thought that a store that could train such a freakish pet like the Lightning Rat must be a well-known store. Even if it wasn't a big store but a small one like this one, there must be a hidden master in charge.
However, she didn't expect that the person who opened the door would be a young man like Su Ping, who seemed to be two years younger than her.
"How long will it take to train a pet? Are you the one doing the training?" Jiang Hanxue asked.
"Of course." Su Ping answered calmly, "The training in this store is based on the number of times, not on the length of time. When the training is done, you will be notified to pick it up."
"Based on the number of times?" Jiang Hanxue frowned. This was a strange rule. But she was relieved to hear such a strange rule. She had heard that since ancient times, some masters had strange rules.
"Then I want to train four pets. Ten times," Jiang Hanxue said directly.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. "You can only train one pet at a time. If you want more, you will have to place another order. Also, do you have enough money?"
"Money?" Jiang Hanxue was surprised. Then, she came back to her senses. Since this store could train a Lightning Rat, it must be expensive. She asked at once, "How much does it cost for one training session?"
"Ten thousand for low-rank pets and a hundred thousand for middle-rank pets. Advanced pets will not be trained for the time being." Su Ping said. Last time, when the Lightning Rat was trained to an above average aptitude, the middle-rank pet training service was unlocked. As for advanced pets, they would have to train another middle-rank pet with an above average aptitude to unlock the service.
"So cheap?" Jiang Hanxue couldn't help but blurt out. Compared to the general training stores, this price was quite expensive. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was a rip-off. However, for a place that could train a Lightning Rat, if a master trainer was there, the price would be cheap.
Su Ping's lips twitched. This was the deepest pain in his heart.
Fortunately, when the Lightning Rat was trained, it was the first mission he received. Therefore, the training requirements were high. As for the general training, he only needed to take the Lightning Rat to a cultivation plane for a walk. It was not difficult. Apart from the fact that he would inevitably die dozens of times, there was nothing difficult about it.
"I want to train four pets. Three of them are at the fourth rank and one of them is at the third rank. Can all of them be trained to the same level as that Lightning Rat?" Jiang Hanxue asked in a hurry. She was even ready to pay for it, for fear that Su Ping would go back on his word.
Su Ping answered, "Of course not. The Lightning Rat is a special case. Currently, it is the general training."
"…" Jiang Hanxue was stunned. She thought it was a bit unrealistic to spend one hundred thousand to train a pet like the Lightning Rat. However, she didn't know that the reality was real. Her dream was shattered at once. Now, there was only the general training left. Could it be that the Lightning Rat was just a gimmick to attract customers and build up the store's reputation? Had the master trainer of this store left already?
Or, could it be that this store had nothing to do with the Lightning Rat at all? Was this a scam set up by Su Yanying?
Su Ping looked at Jiang Hanxue whose expressions were changing. He didn't know what she was thinking. But he didn't think it was anything good. Otherwise, she wouldn't have hesitated. He said, "Yes, it is the general training but the effect is okay. Do you want more?"
Jiang Hanxue came back to her senses. She couldn't help but force a bitter smile. The effect was okay?
She sighed to herself. She knew she was too late. The crab had been eaten by Su Yanying.
"Then let's train one first," Jiang Hanxue said. Jiang Hanxue said. She was disappointed but it would be pointless to go back empty-handed since she was already there. Whether or not that master trainer was still there, at least the store was connected to such a big shot. Maybe there would be surprises in store.
As for the scam, Jiang Hanxue didn't think it was possible. If Su Yanying was in need of money, she would have to work with a big store. How much money could a small store like this offer?
"Train one?" Su Ping raised his eyebrows. The price dropped from four to one. That was a big difference. But he couldn't force a deal. He had to say, "Okay …"
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a ding in his head.
"Temporary Task: Due to the doubts of the customers, the original order has been canceled, which has caused substantial losses to the store. The host is specially authorized to undergo a 'professional' training!"
"The fee for the professional training is 100 times that of the general training!"
"Time limit for the training: 30 days."
"Training Requirements: The pet to be trained must have an aptitude of above average."
"Task Reward: One middle-rank Force Pellet and a random book of Mythical Battles!"
"Task Failure: Host's rating -10."
The system's notifications popped up in Su Ping's head. There was a professional training?
