Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 725: Chapter 321: The Feng Shui of the Plant Spirit Land! The Grievance of Ray Saint!_2

Shangguan Ye, who was beside him, reacted similarly. He smiled and declined, "Now that you’re the honorary vice president of our Jianghai Breeder Association, even by that standard, I’m your peer. I really don’t deserve the title of ’teacher’."

Su Ping was speechless but didn’t dwell on this minor matter. "I called you both, and you came over right away. You haven’t eaten yet, have you? Would you like to try the culinary skills of our Heart of Myriad Spirits’ cafeteria chefs?"

"Then we shall accept your generous offer!"

Both of them knew that Su Ping wouldn’t contact them unless there was something important, and it was very likely related to the cultivation of Plant-based Pet Beasts.

With this in mind, Shangguan Ye glanced with interest at the vast, pit-dotted patch of land Su Ping had dug up but made no comment. He then followed Su Ping into the sightseeing car to a dining room in the Heart of Cloud.

Dish after dish was brought to the table, dazzling the two guests. Yang He said enviously, "I heard from my master before that you made a trip to Crescent Island. There, you displayed great prowess, slaying numerous aquatic Ferocious Beasts. It seems to be true indeed, as these are all flesh from high-level aquatic Pet Beasts! Heh heh, this trip wasn’t in vain!"

Su Ping, who wasn’t the least bit sentimental about the eventual fate of these fish, made small talk with them for a while. Then, Shangguan Ye got straight to the point, "Su Ping, did you invite us here because you have something specific in mind?"

After tasting a piece of green-scaled cod prepared by the cafeteria, Su Ping began, "The thing is, last time, I brought back quite a few Plant-based Pet Beasts, and Brother Yang and Senior Shangguan are aware of this. I’ve been thinking lately that I should try to cultivate some of them. Moreover, I’m quite interested in the cultivation of Plant-based Pet Beasts—not just finding the Evolution Cultivation Method for corresponding pets. After some thought, I realized you two are very knowledgeable in this area, so I took the liberty of asking you both to come and offer some guidance! Of course, please rest assured, I won’t let you teach and help for nothing."

The two exchanged a look, showing no surprise at all. In fact, this was completely within their expectations. What else could they possess that would interest Su Ping, if not their research on the cultivation of Plant-based Pet Beasts? And undoubtedly, this was an opportunity neither of them would want to miss.

Not to mention, ever since his last visit to the Western Suburbs forest farm and seeing Old Sha, Shangguan Ye had been thinking about it day and night. He had advanced to Monarch Level not long ago and hadn’t yet decided on his Fourth Pet. But after seeing the Wanmu Wolf, Shangguan Ye was tempted.

However, there hadn’t been any news of Su Ping cultivating a Wanmu Wolf for anyone recently. The fame of the Heart of the Sun also made Shangguan Ye too embarrassed to ask, in case Su Ping thought he was merely after a Pet Beast with a Super-Rank Skill. Unfortunately, he also felt that Sun Chaoju was unreliable; he wasn’t comfortable with the idea of letting Sun Chaoju handle the cultivation.

Now, an opportunity had arisen. He wasn’t afraid Su Ping would have requests; he was more worried that Su Ping’s requests wouldn’t be demanding enough!

At this, the eyes of Linzhou’s only Senior Breeder specializing in Plant-based Pet Beasts lit up. "What’s the big deal? It’s rare for you to ask, Su Ping! Even if I have to use all my skills and reveal my most secret techniques, I’ll make sure you understand it thoroughly. Perhaps in the future, you’ll achieve success with Plant-based Pet Beasts comparable to the Forest Wolf. By being associated with you, I might even gain some fame too!"

The mentor who enlightened a future Breeding Master on Plant-based Pet Beast cultivation! Tsk tsk! The mere thought of this title excited Shangguan Ye and filled him with motivation.

Shangguan Ye’s enthusiasm left Su Ping feeling a bit confused, but there was no reason for him to refuse such fervor. "In that case, thank you very much, Senior Shangguan. If there’s anything you need my help with, just tell me."

"That’s not urgent; we can talk about it later. But since we have time now, Su Ping, why don’t you tell me what you understand about Plant-based Pet Beasts?" Shangguan Ye wasn’t in a rush, a slight smile on his face.

However, Su Ping shook his head. "I’m completely clueless about the cultivation of Plant-based Pets. You and Brother Yang can start from the very basics."

Shangguan Ye nodded and, after tasting a slice of fish, slowly began, "In that case, let me start by briefly explaining the differences between Plant-based Pet Beast cultivation and that of other types of Pet Beasts."

"Pet Beast cultivation and Evolution, regardless of the type, primarily require resources. Simultaneously, the Pet Beast itself must meet certain requirements to evolve. The same applies to Plant-based Pet Beasts."

"However," he continued, "whether it’s cultivating their Evolution, their Cultivation Skills, or anything else, Plant-based Pet Beasts have an additional, special requirement compared to regular Pet Beasts."

"For Plant-based Pet Beasts, this could be considered a resource requirement unique to them: ’Spirit Land’. I believe you might already know about this, Su Ping. So, let me discuss the Attribute of ’Spirit Land’ and how resource consumption differs when using Spirit Land for cultivating Plant-based Pet Beasts..."

Su Ping, who had been listening intently, was suddenly puzzled. Hmm? How would I know about such things?

So, Su Ping directly interjected, "Um, Senior Shangguan, perhaps you could explain in more detail? I really don’t know much about these things. This ’Spirit Land’ you mentioned... what is it?"
