Chapter 58: Wolf King? Farewell, Little Paper Figure! (Part 1)
The night was bright.
Su Ping sat atop an elite, towering Forest Wolf, his body radiating mental fluctuations.
Su Ping opened his eyes with satisfaction, a hint of joy flashing in his gaze.
Common Eighth Rank! After a few days of meditation, his realm had finally broken through once more.
Aside from Su Ping's exceptional mental talent, there was also the effect of the Spirit Nourishing Ancient Tea that Qin Xiaoxue had given him before.
Every time Su Ping meditated, he could feel the terrifying effects of that ancient tea and the benefits it brought to his subsequent meditation sessions.
This allowed Su Ping to achieve a heaven-defying rate of improvement, even without rigorous training.
And now...
The past few days had been the most arduous and busiest days of Su Ping's life.
But this kind of busyness was different from the previous days of entertaining guests; Su Ping not only relished it but also enjoyed it.
First, Su Ping set aside one million for daily expenses and emergencies.
The rest was spent on purchasing Forest Wolf cubs.
Finally, he had expanded his pack! Excluding Xiao Qing, his own pet, the wolf pack now numbered fifty! In other words, he had bought twenty-five Forest Wolf cubs this time!
This was indeed a grand gesture.
He purchased them directly from the Breeder Association over the phone, each cub costing around three to fifty thousand.
Not too expensive, they were bought at cost price.
However, for Su Ping, these little fellows were worth far more than their price.
They also represented his future foundation and partners.
After all, Su Ping had given up on the direct resale of Forest Wolves; the profit was meager, and he couldn't bear to sell the wolves he had raised.
Of course, more importantly, there were the experience points provided by these little fellows.
With this doubled number of wolves, each with a bond of intimacy, he gained ten experience points, totaling over three hundred points from twenty-five wolves.
Adding the experience points from nurturing their growth and spending time with them, Su Ping estimated that with the evolution of the Thousand Trees Wolf, he would be able to complete it in just two more days!
Thinking of this, Su Ping felt no trace of sleepiness. Watching the cubs in the forest, now playing with the larger Forest Wolves, he wished they would all grow up quickly.
However, rubbing his brow, Su Ping felt that he would have to hire some people.
Caring for and training pets was something Su Ping couldn't entrust to others.
But there were still some errands each day that needed his attention.
Still, he didn't feel at ease with hired help.
Li Shu, whom he knew well, was somewhat trustworthy, but Su Ping didn't trust anyone else.
Thinking of this, Su Ping truly missed Qin Xiaoxue.
Miss Qin had helped him a lot during her stay here.
Aside from Qin Xiaoxue, the only other person he could trust was his own father.
It was fine when he didn't think about it, but the more he thought, the angrier he became.
He picked up his phone and called Su Anyong.
As expected, the phone that had been reachable before now showed a message indicating that the other party had turned off their phone, leaving Su Ping frustrated and helpless.
However, just as he was thinking about it, a message pinged in.
Unfortunately, it wasn't from Su Anyong, but from the person Su Ping had been thinking about.
[Qin Xiaoxue: I've arrived in Megacity and just remembered that I forgot to pay for your breeding fees. But I won't pay, I'll send something from Megacity to you by mail. Remember, from now on, I'm a lifetime VIP at your place! All breeding services will be free for me!]
Su Ping's mind wandered to Qin Xiaoxue's previous mention of the Crowned Wolf Emperor's evolution.
Would Woodheart's future evolution be Imperial Rank? A glimmer of anticipation shone in Su Ping's eyes.
Imperial Rank. That would place one among the highest echelons of the nation, revered and respected.
The correct version is on Book 69! 6=9+Book_Bar Code Novel.
Such a Beastmaster would indeed be worthy of an honorific title.
If Qin Xiaoxue truly succeeded in becoming a Sovereign, what Beast would she be crowned with? A Wolf King? Unlikely, as there were already too many powerful Beastmasters among the Wolf-type Beasts.
The title of 'Wolf King' would likely be reserved for those who were among the top few Imperial-ranked Beastmasters specializing in Wolf-type Beasts.
Regardless, such an existence would be unparalleled throughout Jianghai Province.
After all, even an Imperial Rank would warrant adding the title of 'Heavenly King' to one's surname.
There were probably only a handful of such individuals in the entire province.
Recalling her words, Su Ping's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and he murmured, "A Wolf King? The Beastmaster Exam? I suddenly feel a surge of excitement!"
With the Divine Beast Codex, Su Ping's confidence rivaled anyone's.
At this moment, as he gazed up at the sky, the light in his eyes outshone the stars.
Unfortunately, this rare surge of emotion was interrupted by a wolf's howl!
Old Sha, seeing his young master still motionless, began to urge him on:
"Arrooo! (Quick... This time... Catch it!)"
Old Sha's eyes were determined.
Su Ping snapped back to attention. Indeed, despite being busy and disoriented these past two days, Su Ping had maintained a consistent nightly routine.
Every night, he would traverse the forest, arriving at his backyard by the Spirit Stream River.
At nightfall, he would wait at the eerie riverbank.
Here, he awaited the arrival of the little paper figure.
And indeed, over these few days, the little paper figure had been unwavering in its routine. It appeared daily, and without hesitation, it would engage Old Sha in combat, only to be swiftly defeated and vanish.
If not for Su Ping's orders to spare its life, Old Sha would have bitten it to death in an instant.
When had Old Sha ever felt so humiliated by a mere Common-ranked little paper figure?
Seeing Old Sha's frustration, Su Ping realized that based on his observations of the little paper figure these past days, it was time for a change in approach!
At the very least, Su Ping wanted to see what this little paper figure was all about.
After so many days, it had appeared numerous times, but each time, it would disappear within seconds, not even giving Su Ping a chance to activate his True Eye.
