Beast Taming: My first spirit beast was a frog junior?

The Clam Pearl is produced by the Bronze-grade marine spirit beast, the Dragon King Clam.

This spirit beast's innate talent is "pearl."

Every so often, it uses its own energy and the energy absorbed from the outside to form a pearl in its body.

These pearls are extremely beneficial to low-level water-attribute spirit beasts. After consuming them, they can increase the energy intensity, or energy level, of low-level spirit beasts.

Of course, the improvement is also limited; at most, the pearls produced by bosses can only upgrade a water-attribute spirit beast to a high level.

Moreover, pearl production is not something that can be achieved overnight.

Because the pearls of the Dragon King Clam emit a pure white glow when they first appear, and shine even more brightly in the sunlight like a celestial object, they are elegantly called "Clam Fairy Pearls".

"I was wondering why this giant piranha was at a high level. Even with years of accumulated experience, how could such a spirit beast reach this level so easily? It seems to be due to consuming the energy of the Immortal Pearl. However, this guy's own potential is limited, so after reaching the high level, it can no longer absorb the energy from the Immortal Pearl."

Zhou Li marveled at the Immortal Pearl, then said, "Brother Immortal, it seems the championship in this association's competition is definitely yours!"

"Aren't you going to fight me for it?" Xu Xian carefully sealed the translucent white jade bead and put it into his backpack.

Zhou Li shrugged. "The Pearl of the Clam is yours, but I'll keep the Nine-Leaky Fish for myself."

"Alright!" Xu Xian naturally had no objections; to be precise, he was the one who benefited.

Clam pearls are a water-attribute resource and have always been a rare item in high demand and short supply.

Generally speaking, only Dragon King Clams of the boss level or above can produce pearls.

Even the lowest-grade pearl cannot help a low-grade water attribute break through the limits of a high-grade one, but it can still accumulate energy and reduce the accumulation of energy in the spirit beast itself.

Prices starting at millions are commonplace.

This pearl has already been consumed, and Xu Xian estimates that the remaining energy is barely enough to help Wawa reach the advanced level.

But this is enough.

It should be noted that only students majoring in Beast Taming at ordinary Beast Taming Universities who possess high-level contracted spirit beasts can graduate.

Apart from Zhou Li, who was by his side, most of the wealthy and powerful second-generation beast tamers in Shucheng and the surrounding counties had probably gone to the three top beast taming universities or first-class prestigious schools to associate with those geniuses.

Although it doesn't sound good, there's no tiger in the mountains, so I, the monkey, should be able to dominate the competition on the 15th of next month.

I stayed there for a while longer, but found that there was nothing there except for small fish and shrimp that hadn't been eaten by the giant piranhas.

It's no wonder that giant piranhas passively store food.

During this time, Xu Xian and his companions found the entrance to the cave leading to the pond at the foot of Jade Spider Mountain.

It can only be said that the Nine-Leak Fish was lucky to escape this calamity, otherwise it would be in the same situation as its kind.

After finding nothing else interesting, Zhou Li immediately looked listless. "This is boring, let's go back."

Xu Xian naturally agreed without objection.

So they turned back on their journey.

With the Abyss Serpent, a leader-level spirit beast, around, I can sleep soundly at night even without the Blood Stele.

The next day.

Xu Xian was taken home by Zhou Li in a three-wheeled vehicle.

"I'll go take care of some things first and then come find you." Zhou Li waved and left with Yu Wei and the Sea Abyss Serpent Golden Armor Beast.

After a night's rest, Wawa is full of energy and vitality.

After Xu Xian tested its physical condition with a testing instrument and found it to be in good condition, he planned to continue training it.

However, before the training, its two large, dark, bright eyes stared intently at Xu Xian.

Wawa: Beastmaster, you know what I mean.

Xu Xian: "..."

After a moment of silence, Xu Xian couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

"You little brat."

The clever Wawa has roughly calculated that Xu Xian can increase its skill proficiency in two days.

With her right hand outstretched, Wawa consciously stood on tiptoe and aligned her smooth head with Xu Xian's palm.

He bit open a green energy pill and swallowed it.

Soon, two 'skill points' were directly injected into Vawa's body.

The target is naturally its "water arrow" skill.

After these two skill points were invested, a faint dampness suddenly emanated from Vawa's body.

Immediately afterwards, a spiral-shaped, rotating water arrow appeared.

It is one meter long, and the constantly rotating water arrow tip seems capable of easily piercing steel.

I glanced at Wawa's attribute panel, and sure enough, there were changes.

[Race: Frog Junior]

[Level: Intermediate, Level 1]

[Attribute: Water]

[Racial Tier: Black Iron - Excellent]

[Racial Talent: Intelligence]

[Skills: Beginner: Water Arrow (Mastery), Intermediate: Echoing Bubble (Beginner), Taunt (Mastery), Telekinesis (Proficient)]

The "Water Arrow" at the mastery stage appeared before my eyes.

Xu Xian calculated in his mind that two points were from beginner to proficient, four points were from proficient to master, so mastery to perfection was eight points.

And this is only a basic skill; will the cost double for intermediate skills?

Xu Xian secretly made a mental note of it and called out to Wawa, who was excited but quickly composed herself and was about to continue with her training plan.

"Quack?" Wawa asked, puzzled. Was there something else?

"Take this and swallow it." Xu Xian took out the pearl that had been cleaned and sealed in a small jar.

When the bead appeared in front of Vawa, its eyes widened and it couldn't look away.

As a water-attribute spirit beast, it could clearly sense the allure of the white jade-like bead in front of it, and the urge to possess it grew wildly in its brain.

"Swallow it." Xu Xian tossed it lightly.

Wawa opened its mouth wide, and its long tongue shot out and flashed out, instantly snatching the Immortal Pearl into its mouth and swallowing it.

"Go on with your work!" Xu Xian waved his hand.

Wawa happily went back to her room.

Xu Xian then plopped down on a chair.

He held in his hand the latest physical data of Vawa, which had been tested.

"The proportion of spiritual energy has increased again."

Xu Xian rubbed his temples a couple of times. In just a few days, the headache he had been in due to the contract with Wawa had subsided considerably.

However, I still get a headache when I start thinking about problems.

Especially now.

"Wawa's previous nutrient potion ratio made up mostly of water-attribute resources, with only a small portion being spirit-attribute resources. It seems we'll have to change it again!"

Xu Xian got up to fetch the water chestnuts and other necessary resources, and at the same time opened the software on his phone to purchase the spirit beasts he needed.

He found a spiritual attribute resource called "Spiritual Leaf".

The leaves of the Spirit Leaf are the same size as ordinary maple leaves, but the green veins on them resemble intricate roots or a dense net, making them very artistic.

Its price also has a very artistic feel to it.

"Damn, ten thousand yuan a piece, that's outrageous!"

Xu Xian's heart was bleeding, but he bought two pieces despite the pain.

I thought the money I borrowed from Zhou Li would last me a while, but now I realize I was completely overthinking it.

The cultivation of this spirit beast is indeed extremely taxing.

No wonder everyone says that the real beast tamer profession is all about burning money, constantly burning money!

The more money you spend, the faster and stronger the contracted spirit beast will grow!
