**
Day 88 on the sea calendar marks the day Gu Xi and the deep-sea fish-men have agreed to fight.
Faced with a battle that was a foregone conclusion, both Gu Xi and Fishman No. 1 went about their daily routines in an orderly manner.
Yes, that's right, Fishman Number One felt that he could win without any suspense.
The reason is simple: the SS Flamefish Beast has a perfect winning record in the arena so far, and of course, many of its defeated opponents are SS-class sea beasts.
With such a glorious history, Fishman No. 1 simply cannot imagine what SS-class sea monster could defeat its Flame Fish Beast.
Fishman Number One felt incredibly pleased with himself at the thought, as if the large abyssal crystal was already his for the taking.
Gu Xi got up early to finish training, packed up the boxes, and piled all the supplies in the warehouse.
As she gradually gained the octopus's trust in its self-discipline, she also assigned it the task of organizing and classifying the warehouse. As a result, the octopus was busy all day long and had less and less free time.
Gu Xi tossed last night's catch into the box, and watching the octopus struggling to mate, she suddenly asked:
"Octopus, I'm going out with Aiss in a bit. You've seen how dangerous the seas are getting. What if we're attacked by enemies while we're not there?"
It wasn't that she was overthinking things, but as they went deeper into the sea, the B-level mental strength of the octopus and the shark king was clearly insufficient, and the other fish were also not strong enough, so they needed to train more.
Although attacks have decreased, the level of danger has increased significantly when they do occur, and she worries that the octopus and shark king won't be able to handle them.
"Chirp chirp?" The octopus stopped waving a few of its tentacles, looked at its owner, and seemed to want to say something.
"Good boy/girl, so after Ais and I come back this time, I will send you to the water space in turn to upgrade."
The way to speed up the upgrade of sea beasts is to use sea beast beads. Ever since Gu Xi learned about the uses of sea beast beads, he has been stockpiling them. Now it's time to put these things to good use.
The octopus's tentacles paused, and its entire body retreated.
It still remembered the feeling of discomfort it experienced during its last upgrade. Sea creatures rarely get sick; that was the first time it had ever been ill since it was a cub, so it strongly resisted that state.
"Don't be afraid, this is a rare opportunity. Just think how awesome Aisi is. As you keep leveling up, you'll become like that someday," Gu Xi tempted, following after it.
The octopus vigorously patted its tentacles, indicating that it was rejecting the temptation.
Seeing this, Gu Xi sighed softly, "Alright then, I'll let Shark King and the others level up first."
After saying that, she turned and left to find Ais and prepare to set off.
Gu Xi's 180-degree change in attitude completely baffled the octopus. It thought its fish owner, who was like a devil fish, would pull its tentacles, but it just gave up like that.
The sea creature's intuition told it that something was wrong, but it couldn't quite put its finger on it.
Gu Xi walked out of the warehouse and went straight to the second floor. Letting the octopus go and level up was out of the question.
She'll let the other fish level up first, and the octopus will naturally become the weakest underling. When he gets bullied, he'll realize the benefits of leveling up his mental strength.
Gu Xi's expression was slightly "sinister," a scene that Ai Si happened to see.
"Pfft~ Your expression is so weird?"
Gu Xi said seriously, "No way! I'm planning the upgrade strategy for the sea monsters!"
Ai thought of the sea monsters among the fish and the scene of the zombie sea monsters attacking, and he nodded in agreement, "Puru! You're right!"
If the fish at home weren't so bad, he wouldn't have bothered looking for an SS subordinate.
"Purr! After bringing the Flame Fish Beast back, we need to have it train them a lot!"
Gu Xi found it amusing to see his expression, which suggested he had to take this matter very seriously.
"Let's go! We'll bring the Flamefish Beast back!" (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
