Chapter 58 Earn him a small goal
After nearly a month of combat training, Li Qingyi had a completely new understanding of both Lin Yi and Gu Zai.
This ground mushroom is illogical, its beast tamer is even more illogical, and what's worse, the Wolf Tiger's proud native skill, Wolf Tiger Claw, was somehow taught to its ground mushroom by that beast tamer.
The key point is that [Wolf Tiger] still lost.
From then on, the wolf-tiger cub became depressed, and it took Li Qingyi a long time to heal the wolf-tiger's wounded heart.
Early one morning, at Old Li's house.
"Why haven't you gone over yet? Aren't you guys in combat training?" Li Zhenbei asked, looking at his daughter who hadn't left the house yet.
Li Qingyi sat cross-legged on the sofa and took a big bite of her apple: "It's boring, he can't beat me at all."
Li Zhenbei nodded in response: "Lin Yi's Ground Mushroom has only just entered the first stage of the first tier, so it's normal that it can't beat your [Wolf Tiger]. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Li Qingyi rolled her eyes at the sound of the voice. Although she didn't want to mention it, she finally said, "He has broken through again. He is now in the first-tier, second-level evolutionary form."
"So fast?" Li Zhenbei looked astonished. This is not scientific. After a Beast Tamer reaches the first level, the difficulty of evolution increases exponentially. It is no longer as easy as when he was at the ordinary level ten. It has only been less than a month, and he has broken through again.
Old Li pondered, his expression somewhat strange, and subconsciously looked at Li Qingyi: "What about [Wolf Tiger]? Did [Wolf Tiger] not break through?"
"It has also broken through to the first-order, second-level evolutionary form."
He broke through after being beaten.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhenbei keenly sensed something: "Daughter, I've wronged you."
"What's there to be upset about? That little guy got a really bad beating from the [Wolf Tiger]." Li Qingyi said, taking another big bite of the apple, which made Old Li swallow hard. He then made an excuse and quickly left the living room.
After finishing an apple, Li Qingyi thought for a moment, then got up and took Wolf Tiger back to the deep forest once more.
In the forest... Boom! The Wolf Tiger was knocked away again, but this time, after evolving and with the triple boost from the Tiger Transformation skill, the Wolf Tiger cub survived and wasn't knocked unconscious by its own clan's skill.
Li Qingyi: "Oh yeah~, Little Tiger, well done, Little Tiger is awesome."
[Wolf Tiger] was overjoyed, circling the mushroom baby endlessly. It could feel itself growing stronger, and becoming more and more powerful, though of course, not as strong as the ground mushroom in front of it.
But it's okay, Tiger and Mushroom have already agreed that their battle will be kept secret from each other and won't be spread to the pet community.
Lin Yi looked at the excited man and beast and couldn't understand how someone could be so happy after being beaten so badly. Indeed, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea, impossible to fathom.
After being passively beaten for nearly a month, Li Qingyi finally understood why she should argue with a genius, since he wasn't human. She should focus on improving her [Wolf Tiger] skill instead.
After returning the two little ones to the Beast Taming Space, the boy and girl sat side by side on the ancient tree branch, which was more than ten meters high. Li Qingyi tossed an apple to Lin Yi. Lin Yi looked at the apple in his hand and felt a wave of nausea. He had been eating apples so much these past few days that he was almost ready to throw up.
"You like eating apples that much?" Lin Yi took a bite and subconsciously looked at the senior student.
Li Qingyi: "I also like cucumbers."
Lin Yi: "Then why haven't I seen you eat it?"
Li Qingyi: "I like to eat it pickled in vinegar, cut into small pieces, but I definitely wouldn't carry it with me."
Lin Yi: ? ? ?
Li Qingyi watched the sunset gradually disappear on the horizon, a hint of appreciation appearing in her beautiful eyes. At that moment, Lin Yi was showing off his apple when Li Qingyi suddenly said, "By the way, tomorrow is the city-wide training. What are your plans? How about forming a team? The two little guys are already very in sync. If they train together, their results will definitely be outstanding."
"Okay," Lin Yi said. After nearly a month of spending time together, the two had become very close, even without saying a word.
Li Qingyi: "Then it's settled. But let's make it clear first, the bonus will be split 50/50."
"There's a prize money too?" Lin Yi's eyes lit up immediately. "Didn't they say you had to pay to register? Why are they offering prize money as a reward?"
"Who told you that registration costs money?" Li Qingyi asked, looking puzzled.
Lin Yi didn't answer, but asked how much the prize money was. After Li Qingyi explained, it turned out to be quite a lot. The Beast Taming Legion would contribute 3 billion yuan as a catalyst for this training. However, with so many Beast Tamers, the amount allocated would be minimal, with the lion's share going to Tiannan Beast Taming University.
"The school has really gone all out this time. It is said that any beast tamer who meets the requirements during the training will receive a reward of ten million, but this is only limited to new beast tamers."
"Hiss~ Ten million?"
Lin Yi was somewhat surprised. Was the school really that rich?
He hadn't paid attention to these things, but he could learn about them from Li Qingyi now. According to Li Qingyi, the training would last for a month. If a beast tamer hunted a hundred fallen war beasts of the same level as himself within that month, he would be rewarded with ten million.
"What if there are more than a hundred?" Lin Yi asked.
Li Qingyi couldn't help but glance at him: "If it exceeds double, the bonus will also double, from ten million to twenty million. However, very few people can do that. Reaching one hundred would be quite good, after all, it takes a lot of time for pets to recover their combat strength."
No, no, no, it won't take too long.
Lin Yi immediately retorted in his mind that the mushroom cub had a seven-fold absorption, digestion and evolution speed. As long as a super battle did not occur, it could almost recover while fighting, making it a self-sufficient perpetual motion machine.
If that's the case, then if I hunt seven a day, I'd get 20 million; if I hunt fourteen a day, that'd be 40 million; and if I hunt twenty-one, that'd be 80 million?
If you get thirty or so a day, wouldn't that be... a small goal?
Lin Yi was immediately excited. This seemed to be no less than what he could earn by typing on the keyboard. More importantly, it would also give the little mushroom some experience, killing two birds with one stone.
"What are you laughing at?" Li Qingyi looked at Lin Yi, whose lips were unconsciously curving upwards, her face full of confusion.
Lin Yi snapped out of his daze and gave an awkward smile: "It's nothing, it's nothing. I just thought that since it's a training exercise, it's better not to team up, otherwise the effectiveness of the training would be greatly reduced, right?"
Li Qingyi fell into deep thought: "What you said makes sense. Then we'll meet again after the training. I wish you great success in your training throughout the city and that your pet evolves to Tier 1, Level 3."
"I wish you the same," Lin Yi said with a smile.
After they finished speaking, they jumped down from the tree and left in different directions. Li Qingyi lived in the combat department, while Lin Yi was still in the spirit plant cultivation and research department. Although the spirit plant combat department had been established, it would probably take some time before the beast tamers selected by Liu Bochuan moved there.
As Lin Yi was about to leave the jungle.
"Lin Yi".
Li Qingyi suddenly called out to him, and Lin Yi turned around.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. I hope we can become friends, or perhaps... comrades-in-arms, in the future."
Lin Yi smiled upon hearing this, said nothing, and waved: "See you tomorrow."
……
Just before nightfall, Lin Yi appeared at [Tiannan Minggui]. To prepare for his training, he had almost emptied his savings, purchasing extraordinary evolution ingredients worth over 70 million in one go.
Not only that, two days ago he also took some time to go to the school's "Skill Storage" and used the privilege he gained during special training to choose a lightning-attribute beast pet secret technique called "Three Thousand Thunder Movements". However, he hasn't had time to teach it to Mushroom Cub yet. It seems he can only find an opportunity to add a new skill to the little guy during the training period.
Everything is ready except for the bonus.
No, it's just lacking experience.
The moment the bill of 70 million was settled, the girl who had been in charge of serving Lin Yi couldn't stop smiling. If this continued, she would soon become the assistant manager of this branch.
At the same time.
That night, at the main campus of Tiannan Beast Taming University, in the main campus finance office.
"Old Liu, how's the bonus preparation going? Those kids can't wait. If they don't see the money after the training, they'll lose faith in the school's authority."
A colleague asked Liu Sheng, who, as the financial magnate of Tiannan Beast Taming University, controlled the entire school's finances, and naturally, he was also in charge of allocating the bonuses for this training exercise.
Liu Sheng dismissed this as a joke, saying, "We've prepared everything perfectly. The prize money is just to motivate these kids; how many people can actually win it?"
"So, how much have you prepared?"
"One hundred million is for the ten 'selected students,' and the remaining seventy million is more than enough, even though it's already exceeded the budget."
"Ten 'selected students'? Weren't there eleven? I heard that the beast tamer from the spirit plant department also participated."
Liu Sheng smiled without saying a word. Although he didn't know how the other party had reached the first-level beast tamer in such a short time, it would be difficult to make money from him.
He admitted that the beast tamer was indeed a rare genius, but this training was not a special training at school. It was against genuine fallen war beasts, and being able to kill three, five, seven, or eight of them was already incredibly difficult.
Therefore, this 170 million was a sum of working capital that he had carefully considered, and he even felt that he had prepared a bit too much.
As Liu Sheng spoke, he stood up and said, "Everyone has worked hard. Go back and get some rest. Tomorrow, you will all come with me to the Southern Mountains to record the strength and performance of these children."
"I hope this bonus can actually be spent today, and that we won't end up like in previous years, where we couldn't even get the 'selected student' award."
As Liu Sheng spoke, the crowd dispersed. After all, it involved more than 170 million, so they naturally had to keep an eye on it.
Especially Liu Sheng, although these are not his own money, he has to balance the expenses of the entire Tiannan Beast Taming University, and he feels the pinch if he spends even a penny more.
Everyone is looking forward to the city-wide training, after all, this is not a battle of novices. Many variables may arise during the training, and even the beast tamers may fight each other due to friction.
This is actually quite difficult for those students, but in the world of Beast Tamers, there is no such thing as a useless person.
All we can say is that we hope this year's Tiannan Beast Taming University will have someone who can take on the responsibility and make the training even more outstanding. After all, this is a training that the whole city is paying attention to, and in a sense, it also represents the strength of a beast taming university.
