Chapter 7
Generally speaking, Xuan Beasts learn their skills from other Xuan Beasts. This is why Xu Ling was so surprised to learn that the little Gale Dog had comprehended the 'Wind Scroll' and 'Cloud Waterfall' on its own.
But Xia Muqing knew very well that in the game, when the value of any of the five-dimensional attributes exceeded 90, the mysterious beast had a chance to comprehend the skills related to this attribute, but the time and effect of comprehension depended on the specific environment and the learning talent of the mysterious beast.
When the five-dimensional value is between 70-90, the mysterious beast cannot comprehend the relevant skills on its own, but can master them through learning. The lower the value, the slower the learning and the worse the effect of the performance.
The conditions for improving the five attributes are very demanding. The most common method is evolution, and the degree of improvement varies. When a mysterious beast's five attributes exceed 95, it has the potential to become a divine beast. It can be expected that it will have a high probability of acquiring divine skills in the future and has the hope of entering the hidden evolutionary path during the second stage of evolution.
Different mythical beasts have different requirements for the five dimensions for evolution, and their magical abilities are even more varied. These require specific analysis of the specific situation.
The next morning, Xia Muqing took the little hurricane dog to a training ground.
Last night, she had already made an appointment with a teacher on the app.
The teacher is actually a Fiery Eagle, the mysterious beast of a junior student at the Beast Taming University. She also took advantage of the school holidays to come out and earn some extra money.
Seeing Xia Muqing holding a hurricane dog, the senior was very surprised: "Are you sure you want it to learn 'Intimidation'?"
"Are you sure? This is a spiritual skill. We pay by the hour. I won't quit if you can't learn it."
Xia Muqing nodded repeatedly.
While Swift Dog was studying hard, she sat beside him and asked her senior about the situation at Beast Tamer University.
The senior student’s surname is Wen. She has a very good personality and answers all of Xia Muqing’s questions.
When Xia Muqing asked about exploring alternate dimensions, Wenxue looked a little frightened. "Adventure majors do have relevant practical activities, and they're really quite dangerous. Last time, a friend of mine got injured in one and almost didn't make it out... But don't be afraid, this is still a long way from you."
"Beast Tide? I haven't experienced it, but I've heard teachers mention it. But those are handled by the security department, so students don't have to think too much before choosing a career."
The time spent chatting passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the whole morning was gone. After the training, Xia Muqing transferred 2,000 star coins to her senior. Looking at the balance on the card, she felt her heart bleed.
Breeding mysterious beasts is so expensive.
Previously, Xiaofeng had comprehended two skills in succession, which could be said to have saved her a lot of money, but this time when learning the 'deterrence' skill, Xia Muqing finally experienced the fear of spending money like water.
The key is the learning progress...
The little hurricane dog hung its head, its ears drooped, and it huddled pitifully at Xia Muqing's feet: "Awooo."
Not learned.
This is also normal. Many mysterious beasts take months to learn skills. In addition, Xiaofeng is timid, and "deterrence" is not one of its strengths, so it is even more difficult to learn.
Xia Muqing rubbed its little head and comforted it, "It's okay, we'll continue tomorrow."
"You guys still want to learn it?" Wenxue came over. "I think there's no need for Swifthound to learn this. It's better to learn 'Death Bite'. But if you guys insist on learning it... can you make an appointment with me tomorrow?"
"I'll give you a 10% discount."
…
On the way home, Xia Muqing suddenly received a call.
It was Teacher Li calling. His voice was soft and apologetic. "Xia Muqing, even if you're assigned to the regular department, you can still continue training profound beasts. If you train well, you'll have a chance to transfer to the Beast Taming Department before the college entrance exam... You'll just miss out on some of the training resources the school offers."
"And I think your little hurricane dog has great talent. I've done some research over the past couple of days, and learning non-melee skills isn't completely without merit. Don't give up on yourself..."
Xia Muqing: “……?”
Xia Muqing was completely confused. Why did Teacher Li think she was unique yesterday, but today she became self-destructive?
Just as she was wondering, Xia Muqing received another call from Xu Ling.
On the phone, Xu Ling was extremely angry: "Mu Qing, have you checked the class group?"
"I'm so pissed! That bastard Liu Pan revealed that you were raising a Swift Dog! He even said it was an inferior Xuan Beast that he had returned. He said you couldn't afford a Xuan Beast and were willing to pick up any trash. Fuck me!"
Xia Muqing: "..."
Xia Muqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So that's how it is. No wonder Teacher Li thought I was giving up on myself."
Xu Ling: "I can't wait any longer. When can I let that brat know that your Xiao Feng has a top-notch trait?"
"I want to see him get slapped in the face. Hurry up and see him get slapped in the face."
Xia Muqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, that day will come."
"Besides, if this matter gets spread, I don't think it's a bad thing. Now everyone thinks that my Xuan Beast aptitude is not good enough and looks down on me, right?"
"Being underestimated by my opponent is just the right thing for me to develop."
As for the fact that the contracted mysterious beast was the Gale Dog, Xia Muqing felt that it was nothing to be exposed.
In fact, if you pay close attention, you can find clues about what kind of profound beasts everyone raises. But even if you know the type of profound beast, you don't know her training path. Moreover, everyone looks down on her now, so they won't try to target her.
But Liu Pan’s behavior is indeed disgusting.
Xia Muqing picked up the little hurricane dog, put it on her forehead and shook it gently: "Xiaofeng, we are being looked down upon."
"Yes, that scary green snake. Let's not be afraid of it. Let's beat it down some other time, okay?"
"Okay, you help me vent my anger. Then Xiaofeng, you need to learn how to intimidate as soon as possible."
…
Having said that, the little Swift Dog's learning journey was not smooth.
Even if it has made up its mind, its character disadvantages are not so easy to overcome, and learning skills is not something that can be achieved overnight.
In the next five days, Xia Muqing asked the literature sister to help teach every day. After spending nearly ten thousand star coins, the little hurricane dog still couldn't reach the threshold of "deterrence".
It was also very frustrated and felt that it had let down Xia Muqing's trust. It was listless for several days and didn't even want to eat.
Xia Muqing had to temporarily interrupt the learning of 'Deterrence' and continue to strengthen the training of 'Wind Scroll' and 'Cloud Waterfall' to help the little hurricane dog regain its confidence.
"This won't do..."
How can we find a way to help Xiaofeng master new skills as quickly as possible?
Xia Muqing was racking her brains, rolling around in bed at night out of worry.
But this matter cannot be solved just by her being anxious.
Moreover, the more anxious Xia Muqing acts, the more helpless the little hurricane dog will feel, which will be more detrimental to its learning of new skills.
So even though she was anxious, Xia Muqing still had to appear very relaxed - in order to help the little hurricane dog relax, she took a weekend day and took it to the amusement park again.
After playing for a whole day, it was completely dark when the park closed.
The amusement park was on the outskirts of the city, so there weren't many people around, and the buses wouldn't come for over ten minutes. Xia Muqing waited at the bus stop, holding her puppy. There were only a few other passengers sitting around, bored and smoking on chairs or playing with their phones.
The suburbs are vast and sparsely populated, and there are no residential areas or commercial areas on both sides of the road. It looks like a dark mass at a glance.
Standing in the cold wind, Xia Muqing touched her exposed elbow and felt a little cold.
The little hurricane dog immediately came over and rested its little head in the crook of her arm. Its furry fur was naturally warm, helping her to dispel the cold of the night.
Xia Muqing stroked its back and scratched its chin from time to time, and the little hurricane dog whimpered comfortably.
But suddenly, its body froze.
"Xiaofeng?"
Xia Muqing was a little confused. She looked down and found that the little hurricane dog's back was slightly arched, its paws were hooked on the back of her hand, its teeth were slightly bared, and its hair was trembling.
It's danger sensing!
Xia Muqing immediately became alert and looked in the direction the little hurricane dog had pointed out.
The danger came from a man in black standing behind her, with his black hood pulled down low and carrying a large, bulging canvas bag.
Just as Xia Muqing looked over, the man also looked up and happened to meet Xia Muqing's gaze.
His eyes were filled with coldness, which made Xia Muqing shiver subconsciously.
She immediately reacted: Oh no!
You shouldn't have looked him in the eye! Dangerous people have very sharp intuitions, and now he might have realized that he had noticed something was wrong with him!
Xia Muqing tried to run, but the man reacted faster than her. He took a step forward and stuck behind Xia Muqing, pressing his hard object against her waist from behind.
"Don't move, I have a gun!"
Xia Muqing: "..."
Xia Muqing was practically crying, this was truly an unprovoked disaster. If the other party fired at her from this distance, the little hurricane dog wouldn't be able to save her at all, and she would definitely die.
"How did you find me?" the man said in a very low voice. "Are you from the security department?"
Xia Muqing's mind raced: "Ah... yes, my teammates are nearby. If you don't want to be caught, don't act rashly..."
If I pretend to be someone from the security department, maybe they will be afraid to take action?
But the next second, Xia Muqing was disappointed, because the man casually took out a student card from the side pocket of her backpack.
"That's bullshit, you student," the man licked his lips, "Don't make a sound and back away slowly, or I'll kill you!"
