Chapter 227: Xiao Qing's Evolution Plan! Fei Fei's Great Success!
Chapter 227: Xiao Qing's Evolution Plan! Fei Fei's Great Success!
The warm winter sun shone upon the shores of the Water Core Lake.
The snow-covered ground from the rare snowfall a few days ago sparkled with a pristine white hue.
The banks of the Water Core shimmered with ripples, adorned in a silver blanket.
At this moment, in the center of the Water Core Lake, four fishing rods stood, attracting the attention of many anglers who still ventured out during this season.
Beside the four anglers lay a small turtle with a deep blue shell, eagerly watching the tips of the fishing rods, anticipating the catch that would soon satisfy its appetite.
Such a peculiar group couldn't help but draw curious glances from onlookers.
For at this moment, the youngest among them was none other than the renowned first-place winner of the previous Beast Tamer Competition, who had since disappeared from the public eye.
He was the Wood Core owner, sought after by many for his prestigious title.
Su Ping.
Unfortunately, all requests for the Ten Thousand Trees Wolf's taming had been rejected.
The other two were the Beast Master of Jianghai and the presidents of the Beast Tamer Association.
Both held high positions, and if one could gain their favor and approval, the benefits would be unimaginable.
As for the fourth person, it went without saying.
This was the reason why the central area temporarily refused to receive outside guests, even going as far as disabling electronic devices with signal jammers and prohibiting photography.
The renowned Master Zhu Hong had personally come to Linzhou!
These few individuals had been frequent visitors, spending their days fishing and chatting by the lake.
At this moment, it was no different.
"Su Ping, what are you planning to exchange? You've been delaying the decision, what's on your mind?"
Hearing Liu Fu Hai's question, Su Ping smiled helplessly, "I'm not lying this time. It's really about the evolution of my first Soulbound Companion. I just haven't finalized the plan yet."
"Tsk tsk..."
Liu Fu Hai didn't believe him.
He always felt that this young man was up to something, probably hiding some big plan from him!
Su Ping couldn't explain. As Xiao Qing was his Soulbound Companion, it was natural to treat her with great care.
Under these circumstances, he naturally couldn't say more.
Ignoring the suspicious Liu, Su Ping turned to Master Zhu Hong beside him:
"Master Zhu, how's the progress lately?"
The Wood Dragon's blood needed to be collected once every seven days, and they would be staying here for quite some time. Master Zhu's primary task was to help the Origami Beast cultivate the Five Element Cores.
Along the way, he could also research the Origami Beast, satisfying his curiosity.
Master Zhu nodded:
"It's going well. Your Origami Beast is indeed an excellent candidate, quickly adapting to these skills. I estimate that in a few more days, the Fire Core cultivation will be finalized!
And that Five Element skill is truly fascinating."
Master Zhu seemed deeply impressed.
Su Ping was thrilled. Indeed, he was a Master Tamer, and he was reliable!
The Fire Core, Wood Core, and others, if combined into a Quintessence Elemental Core, would bring an unimaginable boost to the Paper Man Qian Yi.
It would be of extraordinary significance.
It was no wonder that the three of them were having such an enjoyable conversation, while Qin Erlong, standing beside them, was feeling rather annoyed:
"Hey, how many days has it been? Every time we come fishing, you three just keep chatting non-stop. Can't we just enjoy some peaceful fishing and nurture our souls for a while? Is talking about taming beasts not satisfying enough for you?"
At this point, Old Qin seemed a bit upset and said directly, "Well, I have some official business to discuss with you, kid. Come over here!"
Su Ping looked at Qin Erlong with suspicion.
What did the Beast Master Association's official business have to do with him?
To his surprise, Old Qin's official business did indeed concern him.
"The city planning for the next five years in Linzhou has been released. The government officials and I intend to develop the eastern suburbs. Apart from your taming base, we plan to establish a new industrial foundation base in the east!"
"What kind of foundation base?"
The eastern suburbs had a sparse population, and developing the area would indeed be a challenging task.
Most of the surrounding areas were like suburban villages, with old and dilapidated factories that had been mostly abandoned. As for the area near the Wood Core, there was only one main road, and the surrounding areas had already become somewhat desolate.
However, over the past six months, due to the presence of the Wood Core, this area had gained some popularity.
The Wood Core itself occupied a vast area, and if it were to expand towards the east, it would be impossible to ignore its influence.
A good thing Su Ping was quick to act, and many of the surrounding land deeds, even the residential area on either side of the road connected to his door, have all been bought by him, waiting for future development.
Qin Erlong saw the gazes of the others looking at him, and then he smiled slightly.
"This matter, most people don't know about it, and it has something to do with the improvement of education this time. In the entire Dragon Kingdom, there are only a few high-level academies."
However, after this educational reform, the entry requirements for the Advanced Beast Academy will be lowered. At that time, the number of colleges and universities will likely face a situation of supply not meeting demand.
As a populous province, Linzhou is the central city of Jianghai. Therefore, the implication is that in addition to the existing high-level academies in various places, construction will begin this year to build a corresponding high-level academy in the central cities of each province, so that the gifted young beast tamers in the province will have a channel to attend school in other places... "
With these words, the people present all narrowed their pupils.
Specialization has its focus, and it seems they don't know about this either.
However, with Sang Sheng providing the information, Qin Erlong's information should be accurate.
Su Ping blinked and then thought for a moment.
"Qin Lao, I won't hide it from you. I'm not yet satisfied with the development of the Wood Core, so when you're planning, it's best not to be too close to the Wood Core. Moreover, the beast taming base is not suitable for the university town's location. At the same time, my side is indeed a bit too remote."
Qin Erlong glanced at this young man. These days, he has often been at the Wood Core, and he has already seen this young man's ambition.
The plant garden of the Wood Core, the huge Water Core in front, the Cloud Core in the distance, the Wood Core responsible for the breeding base and laboratory, these four areas, are each larger than the last.
The industries they encompass and the types of beasts they breed are also quite numerous.
However, it's evident that this young man isn't doing this for profit. After all, the money-making ability of the Wood Core surpasses that of the company founded by this stinky brat and Dong Jia Xiaonu together.
This young man purely likes to breed and be close to beasts, and he specifically created such a large breeding base.
The location in the eastern suburbs is also suitable.
Naturally, Qin Erlong wouldn't say anything.
He thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense. Then let's do it like this. The old city area in the eastern suburbs has been criticized for so many years. This time, let's demolish and rebuild that area!"
The old city area? Su Ping's heart stirred.
The factory that Dong Muyun bought from Pingyun Company is in the old city area, also in the eastern suburbs, but it's a certain distance from the Wood Core.
He nodded, "You make the decision."
Qin Erlong glanced at this sly young man and looked at the Water Core, licking his lips.
"Speaking of which, what are your plans for this place in the future? By the way, yesterday I went to the plant garden and took a stroll. It's indeed not bad, very refreshing. Those little Wood Element creatures are also interesting."
Qin Erlong's praise was the best affirmation for Su Ping's management.
"I haven't thought about it yet. The Water Core mainly relies on the Rainbow Coral Bug. I'm thinking of seeing if I can rely on sea spirit turtles and similar underwater beasts to create a water pet corridor similar to an aquarium.
Secondly, Liu Lao previously promised to give me some other wolf pets. I also want to connect the Wood Core, where the Lin Wolves live, with the outside world, and open up a large area for wolf pets to roam, using a grassland-like form. Then, I'll get some rideable beasts, similar to a horse ranch where rideable beasts can gallop freely."
Su Ping shared his thoughts.
"Wow, your life is indeed enviable. I want to retire now and live here with you!"
The flawless version is available at 69 Book Bar! 6=9+9 Book Bar, the first to publish this novel.
Liu Fuhai beside him smiled and said, "Welcome, welcome! With you here, I can truly retire and not worry about beast taming."
"You're too kind. Continue researching and breeding beasts well. By the way, how's the third contract beast you prepared? What about that mechanical beast? I saw Dong Jia Xiaonu come to give you a few unawakened mechanical cores the other day."
"Damn it, it's starting again, isn't it?"
But as soon as he mentioned Fei Fei, Su Ping's head started to hurt, because this little guy was even more important. However, at this very moment, he suddenly felt a tug on his fishing rod.
His spirits lifted instantly: "I got a bite!"
He jerked the fishing rod.
A blue-stripe snow gun fish, Su Ping's favorite, was pulled ashore.
Qin Erlong, who was standing next to him, lit up: "We're in for a treat..."
...
The four of them spent the afternoon leisurely, and it was only then that Su Ping returned to his study.
As Liu Fu Hai had said, Dong Muchun had come by the day before and brought Su Ping several unawakened mechanical cores.
However, with the Spring Festival approaching, Dong Muchun was extremely busy. They had already discussed everything over the phone, and this strong-willed Miss Dong did not say much more to Su Ping. She dropped off the items and rushed off to continue her busy schedule.
This thing was not what Su Ping wanted, but what Fei Fei wanted.
Ever since returning from the Metropolis, Fei Fei had been working on something, and Su Ping couldn't be bothered to pay attention.
After he reached Overlord rank and formed a contract with Fei Fei, he would pay more attention to this little guy.
During this time, all of Su Ping's energy was focused on Xiao Qing's evolution and nurturing.
Su Ping had already planned out Xiao Qing's evolution abilities, positioning, and combat style.
As mentioned before, Xiao Qing's abilities would revolve around splitting into multiple bodies, with poison and wood elements as the foundation.
The idea of splitting into multiple bodies was inspired by the Crowned Lynx Emperor.
However, unlike the Crowned Lynx Emperor, Su Ping's plan was to combine the elemental incarnation bodies with the split bodies.
This was similar to another ability from a manga he had read in his previous life, 'The Arrival of the Tree World'.
The ability of these split bodies was far superior to the Crowned Lynx Emperor's additional ability.
The first element was pure invisibility, and in addition to various poison elements,
The main attack of the split bodies was poison. Furthermore, they could advance or retreat, and if they were losing, they could use a poison self-destruct.
Combined with the Forest Wolf Legion's Forest Torrent, they had powerful large-scale combat abilities and strong survival skills. The poison control also greatly enhanced the direct power of the Forest Torrent.
And this was just the basic ability of the split bodies; there were also other advanced abilities for different attributes.
What Su Ping was most concerned about during this time was how Xiao Qing's Poison Heart could be enhanced like the Sun Heart, strengthening herself.
Unfortunately, while the idea was beautiful, there were many challenges and troubles to overcome.
As Rong Qiu had said, once Xiao Qing reached Elite Eight Rank, they could attempt evolution and nurturing.
However, in Su Ping's current opinion, it wasn't even possible at Elite Eight Rank, let alone Elite Peak! Regardless, they had to reach Overlord rank and try again to have a chance! So, during this time, Su Ping truly had no idea what Fei Fei, this virtual sprite mechanical companion, was up to.
The most noteworthy thing during this period was the increased time spent with the Forest Wolves, as the experience gained from the Forest Wolf Ledger continued to rise.
More than half a year ago, the Forest Wolf Ledger's LV3 had been raised to LV4 with 20,000 experience points, and now it was finally approaching LV4!
Thinking of this, Su Ping relaxed and laid down on the bed, letting out a sigh.
However, before he could catch his breath, a joyful shout startled him:
"Master! I succeeded!"
This voice appeared out of nowhere, echoing through all the speakers in the study. It could only be Fei Fei. What had she succeeded in? Had she discovered the difference between Cyberpunk Love and reality's dopamine secretion?
Su Ping felt his head throbbing.
"What did you succeed in? What do you want to do with this unawakened mechanical core?" Su Ping asked, as if he had discovered something, and looked around.
A laptop on the desk suddenly lit up, and the flash of the mechanical core made Su Ping pause.
However, at this moment, Su Ping didn't pay attention to the connection between the unawakened mechanical core and the laptop. The next moment, Fei Fei's excited voice rang out:
"Master, I've created a meditation method suitable for you!"
"Hmm?"
Su Ping straightened up.
