My beast taming system has absolutely no problems!

The next instant, a silver-white metal device appeared on the table in front of Xia Yu, about the size of a microwave oven.

The surface is covered with streamlined energy patterns, and in the center is a transparent touch screen that emits a faint blue light.

Xia Yu couldn't wait to study its functions.

[Magic Energy Block Maker (Basic Model): 50% success rate, random quality of finished product (20% Inferior, 50% Good, 25% Excellent, 5% Superior). Can only produce basic energy blocks.]

Xia Yu understood immediately after reading the introduction.

"Brother Tong, how do I level up?"

Upgrades can be made using breeding coins. The current model is the basic model. Upgrading to the professional model requires 300 breeding coins, and upgrading to the deluxe model requires 600 breeding coins.

Xia Yu: "......"

I knew it!

Given the nature of this system, how could they possibly sell the top-of-the-line machine directly to themselves!

Xia Yu stared at the glaring "0" on his account balance and fell silent.

Brother Tongzi, you understand the concept of circular consumption.

Chapter 16 What? Kang Shen climbed up from the loser's bracket? Really?

Despite his complaints, Xia Yu eventually spent 300 breeding coins to upgrade the Energy Cube Maker to the professional version.

As for where the breeding coins come from...

It was naturally obtained by exchanging 300,000 Donghuang coins.

The upgraded energy block maker did indeed improve the numerical values ​​considerably.

[Magic Energy Block Maker (Professional): 75% success rate, random quality of finished product (20% Inferior, 40% Good, 30% Excellent, 10% Superior), can create advanced energy blocks.]

The reason Xia Yu didn't spend 600 breeding coins to upgrade the Energy Cube Machine to the top-of-the-line deluxe version was because he was considering the last item in the Meow Meow Shop: the Hercules Trait Plaster.

That prop is something we must obtain no matter what.

Although there's still a month until the shop refreshes, Xia Yu really isn't confident he'll encounter another victim like Lin Sisi and Zhao Yuankang...

Cough cough, such a high-quality customer.

Therefore, it's essential to keep some money in reserve to prepare for the worst-case scenario.

Of course, if we can teach another provocation this month, or hatch and sell those pet eggs, that would be great.

This should be enough to cover the upgrade of the Power Cube Maker and the purchase of Special Potion.

But as soon as the Meow Meow Shop refreshes next month, Xia Yu will undoubtedly have to work hard again to buy new items...

He couldn't help but twitch his lips.

I feel like I'm just a beast of burden for Brother Tongzi...

"Alright, let's try out this energy cube machine first."

Xia Yu placed the manufacturing machine on the counter and took a few spirit fruits needed to make energy cubes from the kitchen.

Then add it to the feed inlet according to the proportion of the offensive formula.

The recognition results are displayed on the touch screen:

[Ingredients detected: Custard Apple x2 + Pomegranate Apple x2 + Candlewood Fruit x1 + Dragon Eye Fruit x1. Matching recipe: Attack Enhancement Energy Block. Begin crafting?]

"Yes!"

A slight humming sound came from inside the machine.

Ten seconds later, a deep red energy cube slid out of the outlet, perfectly square with a smooth surface.

The quality is many times better than what he made by hand.

[Quality of this Energy Cube: Excellent!]

Xia Yu picked up the finished product and weighed it in his hand with satisfaction.

"From now on, this will be the signature product of Miaomiao Pet House."

April 11, Puxi Yushou High School Battle Arena.

Today is the loser's bracket revival match of the school team selection competition.

But the atmosphere was even more intense than in the previous main competition.

The stands were packed to capacity, with people even standing in the aisles.

Fluorescent chandeliers illuminated the entire venue, while the energy shield on the central battle platform glowed with a faint blue light.

On the referee's stand, Teacher Zhang cleared his throat and announced, "The first match of the loser's bracket semifinals: Zhao Yuankang versus Sun Rui!"

In the southeast corner of the audience, Zhao Yuankang's "support team" began to cheer and wave flags.

"Kang Shen! Kang Shen!"

"letsgooooo Kang Shen!"

Zhao Yuankang walked out of the contestant passage, his chubby face beaming with undisguised pride.

A tall, thin boy with a cold expression walked out of the player's passage on the opposite side.

Sun Rui is one of the seeded players in the school team selection competition.

His pet beast is a Swift Shadow Leopard, a wind-type creature renowned throughout the school for its speed.

Before falling into the loser's bracket, Swift Shadow Leopard had a perfect record of three wins in the school team selection tournament, with each battle lasting no more than one minute on average.

It might sound a little unpleasant to say.

But I, Sun Rui, am recognized as the fastest man at Puxi High School!

"Both players are in position!"

Zhao Yuankang and Sun Rui stood on opposite sides of the battle platform.

Sun Rui glanced coldly at Zhao Yuankang: "I heard you stumbled in the winners' bracket, but climbed back up from the losers' bracket?"

"Unfortunately, your luck ends here."

Zhao Yuankang was naturally eager to have someone engage in a literary debate with him.

"What are you pretending for? You were also knocked out of the loser's bracket by Lin Sisi."

Zhao Yuankang immediately launched into a scathing attack: "I heard you couldn't even get her to provoke you? Well, I really have to admire you. I can't learn that."

Sun Rui was speechless and couldn't respond, so he simply summoned his pet beast.

A blue six-pointed star array bloomed on the battle stage, and a slender, jet-black leopard-like pet leaped out.

The Swift Shadow Leopard landed silently, its golden pupils gleaming with a sharp edge.

A gasp of surprise rippled through the audience.

"Swift Shadow Leopard!"

"I watched that last match. From the start to the end, in just ten seconds, the opponent didn't even have time to react!"

"Zhao Yuankang's Whirlpool Turtle...isn't that thing known for being slow?"

"Oh no, oh no, Kang Shen needs to send it."

Zhao Yuankang ignored him and summoned his own Whirlpool Turtle.

A light blue six-pointed star array lit up, and the vortex turtle slowly crawled out from inside, landing steadily on its four legs.

The two pets standing together create a striking visual contrast.

The Swift Shadow Leopard's streamlined body is full of explosive power.

Whirlpool turtle... let's not talk about it.

It's round and looks like a walking water tank.

Sun Rui finally regained his confidence, a disdainful smirk playing on his lips: "That's it?"

If I can't beat Lin Sisi, can't I at least beat you!

"Oh, the little mute has finally opened his voice?"

Zhao Yuankang smiled innocently, "I hope you'll still be this arrogant in a moment."

The literary contest was also part of the beast-taming battle, and Teacher Zhang did not stop the two from communicating.

After Zhao Yuankang and Sun Rui both fell silent, he waved the small flag in his hand.

"Battle begins!"

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Sun Rui decisively ordered: "Swift Shadow Leopard, Gale Sprint!"

This is the signature move of the Shadow Leopard, which closes in on its opponent at top speed and then tears through the enemy's defenses with its sharp claws.

The Swift Shadow Leopard moved.

Its figure transformed into a black lightning bolt, almost instantly traversing half of the battle stage.

too fast.

As it approached, most of the audience members couldn't keep up with its movements.

"Holy crap, that speed!"

"The Whirlpool Turtle is doomed!"

But the smile on Zhao Yuankang's face did not change.

This is the moment he's been waiting for.

"Whirlpool Turtle, Trick Space!"

The vortex turtle raised its head, and the silver-gray patterns on its shell suddenly burst forth with a dazzling light.

An invisible wave emanated from it, instantly enveloping the entire battle arena.

Space is distorted.
