Taming beasts is not as good as taming yourself

The equipment that piqued Wu Xiao's interest was a set of rings, or more accurately, a set of weight-bearing rings. These weight-bearing rings belonged to pet equipment, not beast tamer equipment.

This is also why Wu Xiao couldn't find suitable Beastmaster equipment, so he searched around and found this Weight Ring in the Pet Equipment section.

These weighted rings are for training pets, but Wu Xiao felt that he could use them too. Besides using extraordinary materials, daily training is also essential for physical cultivation.

Clicking on the equipment details, Wu Xiao learned more about the effects of the weighted ring. The more he learned, the more determined he became to want it.

This weighted ring can adjust the weight of the wearer by 1 to 5 times, and this weight can only be felt by the wearer and will not affect the outside world. It can be worn at any time for training.

"Hello, I'm here to redeem my reward."

Upon arriving at the logistics and equipment department, Wu Xiao took out his police identification card and handed it to a staff member, informing him that he wanted to exchange it for a weighted ring.

Are you sure?

The staff member glanced at the little fox huddled in Wu Xiao's pocket. This tiny creature shouldn't be at the stage where it needs to use weighted rings for training.

"Sure!"

Wu Xiao nodded without hesitation.

Seeing Wu Xiao nod, the logistics staff didn't understand, but the way beast tamers raised their pets was their own secret, and no one else could say much.

Soon, the staff brought over four metal rings. After Wu Xiao signed to confirm, the set of weighted rings became Wu Xiao's private property.

Upon receiving the weighted rings, Wu Xiao casually picked one up and put it on his arm.

"Ah, this, this isn't for beast tamers." Wu Xiao's actions startled the staff member, who quickly explained.

A beast tamer's physique is nowhere near that of a beast. Although this gravity ring is only of ordinary grade, with a maximum of only 5 times the gravity, it is already in a dangerous range for a novice beast tamer.

"I'll just gesture."

Seeing the staff's tense expressions, Wu Xiao took off the gravity ring, intending to deal with it later; there was no need for him to scare people here.

I returned to my dormitory.

Following the instructions, Wu Xiao put the four rings on his hands and legs. As the weight-bearing rings were activated, Wu Xiao immediately felt a heavy weight pressing down on his body.

Compared to simply carrying heavy loads, this kind of gravitational pressure is more comprehensive. At the same time, it also places higher demands on physical strength. You can't have strong upper body strength but weak lower body strength. If the gravity presses down, you won't feel anything in your upper body, but your lower body will become unable to move due to the pressure.

Fortunately, Wu Xiao was very clear about the principle of balanced physical development. When he used blood crystals to temper his body, he aimed for comprehensive enhancement and did not have any obvious weaknesses.

As for gravity cultivation, Wu Xiao was already very familiar with it. In his previous life, technology had reached the interstellar era, so gravity technology was naturally mentioned, and he had also tried cultivation in a gravity chamber.

While training in the gravity chamber is beneficial, and its effects on physical conditioning are strong, there is still a limit—the limit of physical strength. But this time is different. Putting aside everything else, Wu Xiao's physique, which has been strengthened with blood crystals, is already the ceiling for ordinary people.

In his previous life, such a physique, aside from using genetic enhancement methods that are detrimental to martial arts cultivation, was practically the end point. But here, it's just the beginning.

After getting used to 1x gravity, Wu Xiao then switched to 2x gravity. Only then did Wu Xiao feel some pressure, but his movements were still not greatly affected.

This is the change brought about by the minor success of skin refining, which increases gravity to 3 times. At this moment, Wu Xiao's forehead began to sweat. 3 times gravity should be able to be used as the intensity of training.

2x gravity is sufficient for daily maintenance. As for 4x gravity, you can try it if you're in good condition. The highest level, 5x gravity, is probably only possible once you've mastered the art of skin refining.

Using gravity beyond one's own limits can cause significant damage to the body, and Wu Xiao, who is familiar with gravity training, would naturally not attempt it lightly.

"Meow~~"

Just as Wu Xiao was testing the effects of the gravity ring, the little fox in his pocket cried out in concern, "The person just now said that this thing is not for beast tamers."

"Don't worry, this isn't for you." Wu Xiao took the little fox out of his pocket and placed it on his shoulder.

"Mimi~~"

Seeing that Wu Xiao had misunderstood her meaning, the little fox anxiously pawed at the weight rings on Wu Xiao's arm.

"Mimi, are you worried about me?" After understanding what the little fox meant, Wu Xiao rubbed her pink little dumpling and smiled, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

"Meow?"

Upon hearing this, the little fox tilted its head, looking at Wu Xiao with some confusion. The beast tamer with the weight ring was beyond the little fox's comprehension.

"Hmm, it seems I need to find some time to learn about telepathy." Wu Xiao stroked the little fox's fluffy tail, as it was very inconvenient to communicate with uncontracted pets without telepathy.

Although Wu Xiao has no immediate plans to become a Beast Tamer, the skill of telepathy is absolutely essential. It not only allows him to communicate with the little fox, but also with other pets, spirit beasts, and even demon beasts, serving as a symbol of power in this world.

Communicating with your pet is naturally very important.

In addition, Wu Xiao had won 100 points from the squad leader of the inspection team, and he needed to exchange them for a Refining Spirit Technique. He would then practice meditation to accumulate enough spiritual power before practicing visualization techniques to purify and refine his spiritual power into a stronger Great Sun Divine Thought.

During this period, the pain generated by spiritual burning can also be used as resources for cultivating the Spirit Refining Method, so nothing is wasted.

Time flies, and another month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Public Security Bureau, Captain's Office.

"Team Leader Zhou, here is the information you requested for this year's new recruits." Yang Wukong handed a well-organized document to Zhou Shanhai, who was sitting behind his desk.

Although the survival training had ended, Zhou Shanhai still instructed Yang Wukong to keep a close eye on the new recruits. For example, Yang Wukong would record what tasks they had taken on, their completion status, and the development of their pets. This record eventually became the document we have here.

After all, this was the first time the bureau had given new recruits survival training, so a complete report was needed to evaluate the effectiveness.

"Not bad, it seems this reform was the right thing to do." Zhou Shanhai looked at the document in his hand and nodded slightly. Compared with the new recruits of previous years, this year's new recruits have made great progress in all aspects.

As the main person in charge of this reform, Zhou Shanhai was naturally pleased to see that the reform had been quite effective.

"Um?"

Before the joy had faded, Zhou Shanhai suddenly frowned. Compared to the others' impressive resumes, one person's was completely blank.
