After sending his child to the private school, Ye Liang took Wei Wenshi up the mountain along the way.
Wei Wenshi also brought a small mongrel dog.
She found it by the roadside. It was still small, probably not even a month old. She didn't know who had abandoned it by the roadside, or how long it had been there. It was cold and hungry by the roadside, curled up with its head down, whimpering. Some children, not knowing any better, would kick it a few times as they passed by. It was so small, one kick could almost kill it.
Seeing its pitiful state, Wei Wenshi chased away the ignorant children and even brought it food.
The puppy is afraid of people. When someone offers it food, it gets scared and doesn't dare to come over and eat right away.
Yet, because of its hunger, it couldn't resist eating the food that humans offered it. The dilemma of being afraid yet unable to resist its hunger was truly heartbreaking.
Wei Wenshi simply grabbed it in her hand, so that it wouldn't be afraid anymore, and then she could easily feed it some food.
But when it eats, it still trembles and is still terrified.
In the end, I was still afraid.
Afterwards, I intended to send it home so that my mother could raise it.
However, the puppy was too young to guard the house. When it saw her leaving, it tried hard to follow, but dared not get too close. The feeling of wanting to get close to humans but not daring to was truly heartbreaking.
Wei's mother was also busy and couldn't take care of the puppy, so she told Wei Wenshi that she should just take it up the mountain, raise it, and make it a guard dog for the mountain gate.
Seeing her mother say this, Wei Wenshi was also worried about leaving the puppy in her mother's care, so she had no choice but to bring it herself.
She specifically asked Ye Liang for his opinion on whether she could bring the puppy up the mountain. Ye Liang found the puppy quite cute. Although it was a country dog, it was quite handsome, much better looking than an Akita, and had the same honest and reliable feel as a local dog. Naturally, he agreed.
Now that they've arrived at the mountain, they see that Wei Wenshi has brought a timid little dog. The junior sister immediately asks Wei Wenshi many questions with concern and even takes out Bao'er's pet food to feed the little dog.
"This puppy could be used as a spirit pet, right?" the junior sister asked Wei Wenshi.
Wei Wenshi had no idea about the answer. She said, "I don't know. That's impossible. At most, I could be a watchdog. I could bark at people when they come by."
The junior sister was really curious about the answer to this question, so she immediately shouted and asked Ye Liang, who was discussing things with the senior sister, "Ye Liang, can a guard dog like this grow up to be a spirit pet?"
Ye Liang immediately understood the problem and answered their question: "Others may not be able to, but if Junior Sister Wen Shi is willing, she definitely can. As long as there are small animals around me, such as rabbits, cats, and dogs, they can all be raised into spirit pets. When you are training, I will include you in my team, and you will share experience with them during battles, and they will grow into battle pets."
"Understood!" Having received Ye Liang's clear and unambiguous answer, both Junior Sister and Wei Wenshi were immediately relieved.
The junior sister immediately asked Wei Wenshi with concern, "So now, do you want it to be your battle pet?"
Wei Wenshi was also undecided.
She also worried that people might laugh at her for bringing a dog as a fighting pet.
After all, in most people's minds, dogs are just for guarding the house.
Wouldn't it seem strange to raise it as a battle pet?
However, this wasn't because she disliked the puppy. Even if it couldn't be a combat pet, Wei Wenshi was willing to continue taking care of it, raising it, and letting it guard the mountain gate wouldn't be bad either.
At this moment, Ye Liang brought his spirit pet bear, Ye Huan, over, as if he had come specifically to say to Wei Wenshi: "I think this dog is quite nice. It's the kind of common yellow mongrel that you see in the villages down the mountain. We've all probably seen it before. I think it's pretty good. It would be nice to take it out."
Wei Wenshi was already somewhat tempted, and now that she saw Ye Liang also thought it was a good idea, she immediately strengthened her resolve and said, "Senior brother, then I will take good care of it from now on. I hope it can also be successful."
Ye Liang smiled and said, "I've said it many times: while race does influence some of its innate talents, the master's efforts and training are crucial for it to become a battle pet. Take my junior sister's little deer, Bao'er, for example. Although it's just a timid little mountain deer, you all know how many beast kings it has defeated. So, I've always been different from others. I don't care about the species of my pets at all; I have no concept of that. Even if it's just a little white rabbit, I'm confident I can train it into a very powerful battle pet."
Yes! That's right.
Speaking of Bao'er, Wei Wenshi naturally knew how formidable Bao'er was. She had witnessed Bao'er's battles against the Flower King, the Queen Bee, and the Crab King, so she knew Ye Liang was right.
Even though Bao'er is a timid little mountain deer by nature, isn't she still very powerful now?
So Ye Liang was right, and it's no wonder he was qualified to say such boastful things—that he didn't care about the initial race of his spirit pets at all.
Postnatal nurturing is equally crucial.
With Ye Liang's words, Wei Wenshi felt even more confident and determined to train the little yellow dog into her fighting pet.
"Junior brother," the senior sister called out to Ye Liang.
Seeing that Wei Wenshi's problem had been resolved, Ye Liang immediately agreed, "Senior Sister, I'll go over right away."
The junior sister had just noticed Ye Liang discussing something with the senior sister, so she immediately asked with concern, "Ye Liang, what are you talking about with the senior sister? It seems very important."
