Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 652: Chapter 300: Simulation of Jungle Survival! Zhao Lintian’s Conditions! _2

It was just a Commander Level Evolutionary Body. Moreover, through the Breeder Association’s support system, it was a common Evolutionary Body that could be exchanged using Points.

Clearly, in this respect, Anling Tree House was somewhat lacking.

If possible, I could try to exchange an Evolutionary Body of the Snow Wolf for this Thorn Wolf.

Su Ping himself didn’t have one, but Rong Qiu did. His aunt had previously said that she had given him full authority over the Cultivation of this Evolutionary Body.

Besides these two Wolf Pets with which Su Ping was familiar, the main Pet Beasts of Anling Tree House included another one that Su Ping knew: the ’Cloud-Patterned Tree Python’!

However, this was somewhat inferior compared to the Snow Wolf and the Forest Wolf.

After all, the Cloud-Patterned Tree Python itself was already an advanced Commander Level Pet Beast, so the number of people who could own one and come to the cultivation base was indeed a minority. As for its Evolutionary Body, there was none at all.

Within the Breeder Association’s support system, the Evolutionary Body of the Cloud-Patterned Tree Python could be exchanged, but the Points required for this Level of Pet Beast Evolutionary Body exchange were obviously very high. For an ordinary Breeder, it was difficult to accumulate so many Points for an exchange.

Thinking of this, Su Ping once again recalled the breeding experience inheritance he had obtained from the Ten Thousand Snake Saint in the Mysterious Snake Secret Realm. The Blackwater Mysterious Snake and the Cloud-Patterned Tree Python were both included. And the Evolutionary Body of the Cloud-Patterned Tree Python was the Emperor Level Cloud Wing Wooden Jiao. The value of this was simply unimaginable.

However, Su Ping guessed that even if he used this item for an exchange, Zhao Lintian would hardly agree, for a simple reason. One could easily imagine what Level and value of materials would be needed to cultivate an Emperor Level Pet Beast. With a value like this, Anling Tree House’s capacity might really not be able to bear it.

Thinking of this, Su Ping didn’t bother to dwell on it further.

It had to be said, compared to the Heart of Myriad Spirits, Su Ping was quite satisfied with what he saw at Anling Tree House. Besides Pet Beast Cultivation, many of the Heart of Myriad Spirits’ projects were also key attractions. The Heart of Water, Forest Heart, the current Heart of Phoenix, and the future Heart of Soul—all these were projects that could be opened to tourists. Anling Tree House, on the other hand, mainly focused on Pet Beast Cultivation.

However, Su Ping also spotted an interesting project there: Wilderness Survival!

Indeed, inside the Yunling Tree House, there was such a project. Of course, while it was called wilderness survival, it was actually a simulated outdoor jungle environment where numerous base Pet Beasts were released to simulate outdoor confrontations. There was no real danger to life, but it could give Beast Tamers a very real sensation of outdoor exploration. It was somewhat similar to Heavenly Mountain, just on a smaller scale. However, even so, this project could only be implemented thanks to the Yunling Tree House benefiting from its location on the Yunling Snow Mountain. Otherwise, such an industrial project would be impossible.

What if it were moved to my own place?

After briefly trying it out with Xiao Qing, Su Ping walked out, contented. Not bad at all.

This was mainly because Zhao Lintian’s breeding skills were indeed quite good. Those Pet Beasts that managed to successfully launch surprise attacks from the shadows wouldn’t actually cause any harm to the visitors. As long as they completed a successful sneak attack without harming the visitors, they could get fed by the caretakers; simultaneously, the Pet Beasts’ intelligence was indeed higher. They were quite clear on how to ensure they were always well-fed. The Pet Beasts on the ground and in the jungle snow mountains understood this as well. It seemed that only the white-eye fish failed to grasp this.

Su Ping nodded; this project had the potential for replication. If the ’Heart of Earth’ at his own place could be completed later, he would see if he could replicate it, though the difficulty would be somewhat high. The Heart of Earth already covered a large area. But compared to the Anling Snow Mountain that Anling Tree House relied on, it was still quite a bit smaller. He would see how much more space could be developed at the Heart of Myriad Spirits later.

For some reason, Su Ping was reminded of his trip out to the Eastern Sea and his visit to the edge of West Dragon Lake. That lake was truly enormous! It was almost comparable to a small coastline. It was just a pity…

Su Ping shook his head, no longer entertaining such unrealistic fantasies that were filled with constraints and troubles.

After wandering around within the boundaries of the Anling Tree House for a good while, Su Ping finally returned to the front of the Anling Tree House at dusk.

The Breeder of the Anling Tree House, Zhao Lintian, was already waiting there. “Breeder Su, what do you think of my Tree House?”

“It’s great! I’m even a bit envious of this place. Backed by the Anling Snow Mountain, it’s much better than my place, which is out in the middle of nowhere!” Su Ping said modestly, then looked to Zhao Lintian’s sides.

Standing beside him at that moment was a person. It was a young lady around Su Ping’s age. Her appearance was just passable, but it was worth noting that something resembling withered tree branches was wrapped around her arm. As Su Ping focused his gaze, the ’tree branch’ lifted its head and glanced at him. This thing was none other than a Cloud-Patterned Tree Python, though obviously still in its juvenile stage.

“Hehe, this is my daughter, Zhao Qingqing. Qingqing heard you were coming, Breeder Su, and insisted on tagging along. You don’t mind, do you?”

“Not at all,” Su Ping shook his head and then asked directly, “Breeder Zhao, have you decided? What are your thoughts on the Cultivation conditions for the Thorn Wolf?”

At these words, Zhao Lintian’s eyes narrowed. “Dinner is ready in the dining hall. Why don’t we talk over dinner?”

“Sure.” Having roamed around for the better part of the day, it was impossible not to be hungry.

Accompanied by the ever-present Xing Chen and Rong Mang, Su Ping entered a private room. After the food and drinks were served, Zhao Lintian finally stopped beating around the bush and said directly, “Breeder Su, regarding the Cultivation of the Heart of the Sun, I wonder if you could…”

“Hmm?”

It wasn’t just Su Ping; even Xing Chen and Rong Mang, who were beside him, furrowed their brows. Wasn’t this asking for the moon? Indeed, the Cultivation of an Evolutionary Body was precious, but compared to the Cultivation of a Super-Rank Skill, it was nothing! How many Beast Tamers chose their Evolutionary Bodies precisely because there was a possibility of cultivating a Super-Rank Skill? How could the Cultivation of a Thorn Wolf compare to the Heart of the Sun?

However, it was clear that the brief pause let Zhao Lintian realize his counterpart was not a fool, and he cleverly continued, “I wonder if you could cultivate the Heart of the Sun for Qingqing’s Forest Wolf?”

At that, Su Ping understood Zhao Lintian’s true intentions for bringing his daughter along.

The effectiveness of the Heart of the Sun was unquestionable. Indeed, since New Year’s, many had wanted Su Ping to cultivate the Super-Rank Skill, the Heart of the Sun, for them. However, Su Ping had, without a doubt, paid them no mind. Now, for the sake of his daughter’s Pet Beast, Zhao Lintian had come up with such a proposition.

Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile, “That could be arranged, but it would require a long time, I’m afraid…”

“That’s no problem! I’ll have Qingqing go to your place! Don’t worry, we will cover all accommodation expenses. Moreover, Qingqing is already a Junior Breeder, and it should be no problem for her to advance to Intermediate Level soon. If there’s anything you’re too busy to attend to then, you can ask for her help anytime,” Zhao Lintian hurriedly said.

Su Ping glanced at Zhao Qingqing, who was bashfully bowing her head. He had good reason to suspect this might have been Zhao Lintian’s real intention. But it didn’t really matter. After all, as Master Zhu Hong had said before, Su Ping did want to take on a few good students. He wasn’t bothered by Zhao Lintian’s little scheme. If Zhao Qingqing was indeed exceptional and could stay at the Heart of Myriad Spirits, then there was no problem.

To be able to cultivate a Wanmu Wolf and the Heart of the Sun without even needing to exchange Cultivation Methods, and in return, acquire the Secret Technique for cultivating the Thorn Wolf, was an unexpected gain for Su Ping, beyond what he had anticipated.
