Chapter 424: Gift Exchange? The Twin Dragons Emerge!
Chapter 424: Gift Exchange? The Twin Dragons Emerge!
At the exclusive lounge of the Dragon Dynasty Club.
Su Ping approached the door, only to find Qin Xiaoxue already waiting there.
"It's so late, and you're still not resting?" he asked.
Judging by the time, it seemed that in a few hours, the sky would be bright.
Indeed, Su Ping had been chatting with Lord Cold for quite some time.
Qin Xiaoxue glanced at Su Ping and let out a soft hum. "I came to find you, so I've been waiting here. I didn't expect you to return so late. I thought about it, and since I've waited this long, it would be a waste to leave now, so I waited until now."
Su Ping's mouth twitched. The sunken cost of waiting here clearly revealed the character of this Miss Qin.
There was also a question as to why she didn't call to ask when he would be back.
But he was used to it and helplessly said, "That's good. I also have something to discuss with you, so come in."
The two entered the living room, and Su Ping exhaled, finally lying down on the sofa. The mechanical intelligent system in the room promptly followed Su Ping's preferences from the past two days and used mechanical arms to deliver two cups of Happy Water.
Qin Xiaoxue took a cup and gulped it down before curiously asking, "Why did the elders send you up there?"
"They said the first place has an extra task, but after only a few words, the Holy Dragon Legend told me to go to Dragon City and personally inform me about it."
Su Ping belched and then explained, "An extra task for the first place? What kind of mysterious reward is this?"
Qin Xiaoxue tightened her nose, clearly dissatisfied.
Su Ping shrugged, but indeed, no one knew what the Holy Dragon Legend had decided.
Moreover, it had to be said that he had been preparing for the professional examination all this time, and he was quite tired.
If this task was too troublesome, too far away, or required immediate action, he wasn't particularly enthusiastic about undertaking it.
In truth, Su Ping wasn't especially keen on adventuring; he preferred to stay at home, farming and developing.
He wasn't eager to face the current situation and, according to his thoughts, indeed needed to keep a low profile for a while.
Su Ping shook his head; regardless, he would find out by going to Dragon City after dawn.
If it didn't work out, he could politely decline as Lord Cold suggested.
But the more important matter at hand was...
Su Ping reached into his Beast Taming Space and took out an item, throwing it directly to Qin Xiaoxue.
She was startled and subconsciously caught it, but when she opened the box, it seemed as if space itself had been drawn into a spiral, and her gaze was locked onto it, unable to move away.
In the center of the box, a crystal-clear, colorless flame burned slowly.
All the fluctuations and anomalies originated from this invisible, colorless flame.
"This is..."
Qin Xiaoxue stood frozen in place.
The object before her held an indescribable, immense attraction for her.
Or rather, it wasn't just her; for all Beastmasters, it held an extremely powerful allure.
Because for Beastmasters, the value of this item was immeasurable.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a reward given only to the top three in the professional examination!
Indeed, this was that special resource, the Spiritual Flame Seed.
"Su Ping... What are you doing...?"
Qin Xiaoxue opened her mouth, but Su Ping interrupted her, "I don't value this item much, so I'm giving it to you."
Indeed, when Su Ping received the reward, the reason he didn't even glance at the Spiritual Flame Seed was that he had already decided to give it to Qin Xiaoxue.
The second talent was extremely important for ordinary Beastmasters, even capable of changing their development path.
But for Su Ping, it was completely useless.
The Ten Thousand Souls Chart had granted him too many second talents; some he had barely used.
Although the Spiritual Flame Seed's wonders didn't end there, its primary ability was evident.
Thus, for Su Ping, its significance was indeed minimal.
But very clearly, Qin Xiaoxue stood up abruptly, "This can't be! This is your reward, Su Ping. You don't understand the value and significance of the Spiritual Flame Seed.
After breaking through the Sovereign Rank, a Beastmaster's meditation talent becomes extremely important.
Obtaining a second talent will enhance their meditation talent, allowing for faster breakthroughs with the right meditation methods!
I can't accept this..."
The Holy Dragon Legend had already shared this secret with her.
And Su Ping also realized why, in just one year, he had reached his current level without using many special methods or excessive medication.
One year to reach the Youth Overlord Rank—such speed was likely related to the Beastmaster talents he possessed.
(End of Chapter)As Su Ping shook his head, he said, "I said I'll give it to you, so I'll give it to you! Besides, what do you think of my meditation talent?"
Qin Xiaoxue pursed her lips, then rolled her eyes at the guy in front of her. They were so familiar with each other, why was he acting like this?
But as soon as he said this, it seemed to be true.
Su Ping continued, "What's the matter with you coming to see me?"
He directly changed the topic.
As expected, although Qin Xiaoxue was still a bit agitated, she followed the topic and said, "When we were chatting before, didn't you say that besides that space dragon, you also wanted the Shadow Dragon? Here, I'm giving it to you."
A dark mist-covered egg-shaped object was handed to Su Ping.
Su Ping smiled, "Hehe, so does that mean I should say, oh no, I can't take this dragon companion because it's so precious?"
Qin Xiaoxue was taken aback, and her pale cheeks turned slightly red. She wanted to give Su Ping a light slap but couldn't bring herself to do it. She huffed instead, "How can you compare the two? I'm not that interested in dragon companions anyway, and Madam has also said... In any case, I didn't plan to contract this Shadow Dragon. I was going to give this to you anyway.
But this spiritual flame seed, even Madam can't get her hands on it. In the long run, it's much more valuable than a dragon companion..."
"So, we're exchanging gifts, isn't that perfect? Don't worry, go and use this quickly. I'm also going to Dragon City tomorrow, so I need to rest early."
Su Ping waved his hand dismissively but still took the Shadow Dragon egg.
Qin Xiaoxue pouted and thought for a moment. Seeing that Su Ping was directly sending her off, she nodded, "Okay then, the competition is finally over, and I can relax too. I'll take this as you owing me one."
After sending off Qin Xiaoxue, Su Ping continued to lie in the large bathtub comfortably. He picked up the phone and dialed a number again.
To his surprise, the call was answered quickly.
Su An Yong's voice sounded a bit dull, "Hello? Is your celebration over there done, kid?"
Su Ping's eyebrows rose, "What have you been up to these days? You're asking me now?"
"Why should I report to you, kid? Now that you're the top youth beastmaster, or a master breeder, are you finally going to start showing off your dominance?"
After a pause, Su An Yong thought for a moment and clicked his tongue, "Damn right, that's also true. If I had your skills, when the old man dared to interfere with my choice of the Forest Wolf as a companion, I would have..."
He continued, "But you, don't get too cocky. I haven't slept all night. After watching the live stream and seeing your message, I was waiting for your call. I mainly wanted to ask you about one thing..."
Su Ping naturally knew what the old man wanted to ask and spoke frankly, "Rest assured, that Charles is just a special consciousness entity, not even a clone. He can't do anything to me. Besides, I've been competing well, what could possibly go wrong?"
Obviously, Su Ping's guess was correct. Even over the phone, Su An Yong finally breathed a long sigh of relief, "I think so too. If I had my current Monarch-level strength, I wouldn't even consider getting involved in the Beastmaster Kingdom's war, right? At least I should reach the Imperial Level first, then there might be a slight chance."
Su Ping narrowed his eyes and pretended to be dismissive, "You don't know anything, kid. I don't feel like explaining too much to you. By the way, you're advancing too fast in your cultivation. But don't rush to break through to the Monarch Level!"
Su An Yong suddenly said, "Good stuff? What good stuff? Are you going back to Linzhou soon? When are you leaving?" Su Ping raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah, I'll go with Master Yin and also supervise you. When we return, we'll bring back the origami figures contracted as companion beasts from the Heaven Tomb.
As for the timing, it'll be around ten days or so."
"What good stuff? I can only tell you it's an extremely special beast taming space characteristic resource." Su An Yong spoke mysteriously.
Beast taming space characteristic resources are special resources that can be used during each major realm promotion when the beast taming space undergoes earth-shattering changes, allowing the promoted beast taming space to gain an entirely new space characteristic.
This thing is useful in a way, but it's not useful for pure realm advancement. In terms of value and cost, it doesn't match up.
After all, space characteristic resources are several times, or even ten times, more valuable than ordinary resources of the same level.
They are expensive and hard to come by.
Moreover, it's not immediately effective; it's a long-term investment that gradually pays off and can even be extremely profitable.
But whether he could reach that level one day was uncertain.
Su Ping had indeed advanced to the Youth Overlord Rank, and he had used two stones. One was the Stone of Fortune given by Miss Qin, and the other was the Essence of the Green Sea obtained in the Tidal Serpent Mystic Realm.
Now, as he prepared for his future advancement to the Sovereign Rank, he truly lacked a resource with spatial attributes.
This old fellow did remember him, and he couldn't help but feel that he had wasted one of the conditions he had obtained from Cold Grandpa in exchange for the initial Celestial Grave Sword Token.
"Alright, since you'll be returning to Linzhou in a while, we'll talk about it later. I'll hang up first."
After the call ended, Su Ping lightly wiped and dried his body, then laid back on the large bed, feeling content.
The excitement from the day's events had not yet subsided, and he felt no desire to rest.
After greeting Fifi and learning about Meng Huangliang's movements over the past two days, he finally entered the Beast Taming Space with his consciousness.
The conclusion of the competition did not slow down his two Scroll Kings.
Qian Yi was understandable, but Xiao Qing was clearly dissatisfied with her combat strength after this competition.
Her three clones and the main body appeared together, training relentlessly on those skills.
Especially the Poison Vine Constriction, Green Spring, and Demon Spring skills.
It seemed she was trying to rely on her efforts to advance the skill levels to the Divine Transformation Rank.
Su Ping sighed helplessly.
This was not something that could be achieved through effort alone.
But in this situation, he couldn't persuade her otherwise. He would wait for her to calm down a bit before comforting her.
In fact, Xiao Qing's combat strength was not inferior to Qian Yi's.
It was purely because Qian Yi's Primordial Five Elements Body connected to numerous origami figures, which was a bit too much.
This led to the current situation.
In a one-on-one fight, Su Ping had reason to doubt that even if Qian Yi's Golden Lance Technique advanced to the Divine Transformation Rank, she would still struggle against Xiao Qing.
Shaking his head, Su Ping's mind moved, and he retrieved the two dragon eggs from the Beast Taming Space.
One was as clear as a crystal diamond.
The other was shrouded in a thick layer of black mist.
However, there was no doubt that both were extremely valuable.
Obtaining a dragon companion was incredibly difficult for others.
But now, Su Ping had two in front of him.
And if nothing unexpected happened, he would obtain a third, even more precious time-attribute dragon companion when he went to Dragon City tomorrow.
In the future, if the Rainbow Dragon evolved, he would have four dragon companions in his hands!
At this thought, Su Ping's heart raced with excitement.
The Dragon Heart was within reach!
This was the joy of raising companion beasts.
Suddenly, Su Ping's eyes lit up, and he looked at the two small figures with excitement.
Then, the Ten Thousand Spirit Codex opened up, and two records appeared on the log, along with prompts:
[Discovered and made contact with Dragon Companion: Crystal Dragon, high affinity, Codex level experience +15! Crystal Dragon branch map unlocked!]
[This Dragon is a rare individual, +2 experience points for every day spent together.]
[Discovered and made contact with Divine Dragon Companion: Shadow Serpent, high affinity, Codex level experience +10! Shadow Serpent branch map unlocked!]
[This Divine Dragon is an infant, +3 experience points for every two days spent together.]
Su Ping's eyes widened, and he excitedly looked at the two small figures that had just appeared.
Then, he slowly extended his hand.
A faint dragon pattern appeared.
Su Ping thought for a moment, then slowly reached out his hand.
With his mind, he reached towards the deepest part of his soul, where the Dragon Gate imprint existed.
Then, the dragon pattern on his palm lit up.
Su Ping placed his hand on the two dragon eggs,
And in an instant, two slightly different dragon roars sounded from within the egg shells.
On the two different eggs, intricate cracks appeared.
Two small shadows, each within their own light and shadow, emerged with a crisp cracking sound.
Almost as soon as Su Ping looked at the two small figures, they also turned their confused eyes towards him.
