My beast taming system has absolutely no problems!

Xia Yu stared at the woman's beautiful almond-shaped eyes for two seconds.

Do we know each other?

"My name is Lu Weirui."

The short-haired woman reached out her hand, tilted her head slightly, and raised the corners of her mouth in a half-smile.

"Now we're acquainted, Manager Xia?"

At the same time, a system voice suddenly sounded in Xia Yu's mind.

[Ding~ Breaking Mission: Encounter with Rika!]

[You met Rika while traveling, and you realize this is a golden opportunity to promote your petting zoo. Guide her to spend over 100,000 yen and build a strong friendship with this Kanto Rainbow Gym Leader!]

[Mission Reward: 100 Breeding Coins!]

Inside a coffee shop next to the Canghe Company.

Xia Yu and Lu Weirui sat facing each other.

Outside the window are the iconic skyscrapers of Shanghai's CBD and the flow of people moving among them. Inside the coffee shop, a kind of jazz music with lyrics that are hard to understand but with a very pleasant melody is playing on repeat.

To be honest, Xia Yu didn't know how he ended up here.

However, he was certain of one thing: Lu Weirui was definitely a social expert.

"Would you like something to drink, Xia Yu?"

She has changed the more business-like title "Manager Xia" to her more intimate real name.

Xia Yu replied, "Latte, please."

Xia Yu didn't know much about coffee, and this type of coffee with milk, which wasn't so bitter, was the only option he could accept.

Lu Weirui snapped her fingers and called over a waiter not far away.

"An iced latte and an iced Americano."

Normally, there should be some of Jiaxin's movements, which look very cool with Lu Weirui's good looks and temperament.

"So, you are Lu Weirui, the successor of the Jinling Zijin Dojo?"

After ordering their drinks, Xia Yu spoke first.

Lu Weirui smiled and joked, "I didn't expect you to have heard of me, Manager Xia. I'm truly flattered."

She is another well-known beast tamer from Generation Z in Donghuang, who is known as one of the "Two Peerless Beauties" alongside Jiang Yuxi.

Lu Weirui is very popular among young people.

Xia Yu's predecessor had certainly heard of him, but he didn't recognize him when he saw him.

Xia Yu smiled apologetically, "Sorry, I have a bit of face blindness, I didn't match the face with the name just now."

Lu Weirui nodded thoughtfully, "I see. So you prefer Xixi's looks?"

Xia Yu: "......"

Actually, that's not the case. I actually prefer throwing the ball around.

The greatest regret in life is that we often cannot express our true feelings.

Xia Yu changed the subject, asking, "If Miss Lu Weirui were to help purchase Flamestones, approximately how much would one cost?"

As a key material for the [Weakness Insurance], a batch of [Ember Stone] definitely needs to be purchased.

He can only accept a price of 200,000 per piece.

Even if I had more, I still wouldn't be unable to afford it, but it would feel like I was being taken advantage of.

He would rather trouble Jiang Yuxi again.

Given the size of the Donglin Dojo, buying a few [Flamestones] should be no problem.

Lu Weirui asked straightforwardly, "How many pieces do you want?"

Xia Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Let's start with ten yuan."

Without hesitation, Lu Weirui replied, "One million will do."

Xia Yu was slightly taken aback, "One million... one yuan?"

"It's definitely ten yuan."

Lu Weirui said speechlessly, "If you want to give me ten million, I have no objection."

Xia Yu understood.

Then he asked directly, "Alright, is there anything I can help you with, Miss Lu Weirui?"

We've only known each other for a short time, and I'm already helping you buy [Ember Stone], with a discount on top of the original price.

Xia Yuzhen didn't believe there were no additional conditions.

As long as it's not about selling one's body in exchange for spiritual materials, everything is negotiable.

Lu Weirui said, "Just call me Sister Lu. I should be older than you."

After Lu Weirui reminded him, Xia Yu took another look at the prominent naughty thunderbolt under her tight training clothes.

Yes, it is indeed very big.

Well, if I really have to sell my body... it's not entirely out of the question?

Lu Weirui, unaware of Xia Yu's underlying thoughts, continued, "There's no need for help right now, let's build a good relationship first. You're currently a rising star in the beast taming world, what if you have skills or other things that we wood-type beast tamers might need later?"

She didn't hide her thoughts and said them directly.

Although it is somewhat pragmatic, it is not annoying at all.

The world is bustling with activity, all driven by the pursuit of profit.

It's Zhou Wenda's attitude of pretending to be "good to you" when he's clearly doing it for his own benefit that's disgusting.

Lu Weirui's candor made Xia Yu feel a little embarrassed.

Unfortunately, I didn't win any Grass-type TMs like Grass Terrain or Grass Slide in this lottery.

Otherwise, I could return this favor immediately...

and many more.

Xia Yu was slightly taken aback.

Didn't we just happen to draw a "sunny day" yesterday?

Chapter 84: The Weakness Insurance is created, allowing the Pokémon world to experience the numerical charm of Pokémon items! (4k)

While the move 【Sunny Day】 is more commonly used in 【Sunny Day Teams】, it also provides a certain boost to Grass-type Pokémon.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that the "Sunny Day Team" consists mostly of Grass-type Pokémon serving as the team's attackers.

The most crucial reason is the presence of the characteristic [chlorophyll].

Under sunny skies, Pokémon with the Chlorophyll trait have double the speed!

The effect is the same as [Free and Easy], simple and straightforward.

However, almost all of the Pokémon possessing this top-tier trait are Grass-type Pokémon.

Venusaur, Leafeon, Tropius, Whimsicott, and Jalapeno, among others, from Generation IX.

Venusaur and Leafeon need no introduction; they're regulars on Team Sunny.

The other Pokémon also have their own unique strategies based on their Chlorophyll ability.

In short, for elves that possess chlorophyll, the bonus provided by Sunny Day is absolutely staggering.

The only question is, does the Beast Taming World... or rather, does Lu Weirui's team have this extraordinary pet beast?

However, even without Chlorophyll, Sunny Day still provides some bonus to Grass-type Pokémon.

For example, [Photosynthesis] can restore more HP, [Growth] can additionally increase physical and special attack, and [Solar Beam] and [Solar Blade] can be activated directly without a one-turn charge...

Such as these.

"Xia Yu, store manager, hello, can you hear me?"

Lu Weirui waved her hand, her fair fingers brushing past his line of sight, pulling Xia Yu, who was slightly lost in thought, back to reality.

"Oh, what's wrong?"

Lu Weirui narrowed her beautiful almond-shaped eyes slightly, leaned forward a bit, and looked at Xia Yu with some suspicion.

"Shopkeeper, you don't actually have some really useful treasures hidden away that our wood-type beast tamers can use, do you?"

"Uh..."

Xia Yu carefully replied, "It's hard to say."

Lu Weirui reacted quickly: "I understand, do I need to pay more?"

Xia Yu twitched his lips and shook his head, saying, "No, it's really hard to say."

After thinking for a moment, he replied, "How about this, Sister Lu, if you're free tomorrow, come to the Donglin Dojo to find me. I'll take a look at your pet beast first."

He wasn't deliberately teasing Lu Weirui.

The "Sunny Day" buff will definitely provide a significant boost to fire-type pets.

However, for wood-type pets, it depends on whether they have skills that affect their chlorophyll ability or photosynthesis.

"The Eastern Temple..."

Lu Weirui's expression suddenly turned strange. "You're not provoking me, are you?"

Xia Yu then realized the delicate relationship between Jiang Yuxi and Lu Weirui, as well as between the Zijin Dojo and the Donglin Dojo.

However, Miaomiao's pet house is still under reconstruction, and apart from the Donglin Dojo, there is no place that can guarantee his safety.

Xia Yu shrugged and said, "I live over there now. If you don't want to go, there's nothing I can do. Let's talk about it when my new store opens."

"Sure, I'll go."
