Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future Chapter 49 – Developing New Tactics

Chapter 49: Developing New Tactics

A ball of red flame slowly spread along the walls to one side of the room, and the temperature in the room rose significantly.

One was not enough, so Shen Fei placed his other hand on the right side of the room.

In an instant, endless darkness spread along the walls on the other side of the room, and speckles of light quietly bloomed on those walls.

Shen Fei retracted his hand in satisfaction. The left side of the room was the training area for the Flame Owl. The right side of the room would be reserved for the Three-clawed Golden Dragon. This way, it would be enough for the two of them to cultivate at the same time.

As he thought of this, Shen Fei raised his hand and released the two spirit beasts from their pocket realms.

“Coo, coo.” The Flame Owl looked around in confusion. It was mesmerized by the half-fiery and half-starry scene of the room. It looked around curiously and eventually flapped its wings and jumped into the fiery left side without hesitation.

As soon as the Three-clawed Golden Dragon was released, it quickly identified its target. Flying into the air above the right side of cultivation room, it continued to absorb the dark attribute spirit energy emitted from there.

Seeing the two spirit beasts cultivate on their own, Shen Fei also picked up the cultivation manual and flipped through it.

With this, his strength could be raised to the Novice tier in three days. He would have the right to enter Nord Street once he became a Novice-tier Beastmaster.

The Nord Street the principal mentioned was, in fact, a black market that specifically catered to Beastmasters. They often sold natural treasures or special trading materials like ritual crystals. However, the fluctuations in price were huge at times, so Shen Fei would not set foot there for the time being.

A million or so Yuan was too little to trade with over there. Being a Beastmaster was a cash-burning career to begin with. If he wanted to become an outstanding Beastmaster, it would eat even more money!

‘As for these spirit fruits…'

Shen Fei looked at the six baskets that were filled to the brim. Half of them were high-grade fire-attribute spirit fruits, and the other half were high-grade dark-attribute spirit fruits. Eating them would increase the level of the spirit beast and its skills, but Shen Fei did not plan to feed them too much for the time being.

After all, the prices of goods on Nord Street were constantly changing every day. What if the principal's three million was not enough? At that time, he would have to sell some of these spirit fruits to make up for the lack of funds.

He still needed to improve his foundation.

At this, Shen Fei took out a basket of spirit fruits and placed them in the two areas on the left and right.

“Coo, coo.” The moment it saw Shen Fei holding a fire-attribute spirit fruit, the Flame Owl impatiently flew toward Shen Fei.

Shen Fei looked at his Flame Owl lovingly. The spirit fruit that Aloy gave him was only enough for him to level up its skill up to Level 28, and it still had not completed its skill mutation.

Thinking about it carefully, the two skills of the Flame Owl were indeed not as useful as the Three-clawed Golden Dragon's.

Of the Three-clawed Golden Dragon's two skills, one could cause a lasting effect on the enemy, while the other could greatly weaken the enemy's ability and improve the dragon's own ability.

However, of the Flame Owl's two skills, one was a simple collision, and the other skill could only summon a Ring of Fire, while enemies who attacked the barrier would be injured. These two skills were not that useful, so it was better to turn that around as soon as possible.

“Come on, eat up.” Shen Fei took the initiative to push a basket of fire-attribute spirit fruits in front of the Flame Owl. The Flame Owl could not wait to dig into the basket and eat. Its skill level rapidly increased.

A high-grade spirit fruit could be said to yield twice the result with half the effort for a spirit beast's advancement. The Flame Owl had only eaten a few of the spirit fruits, and already its skill level soared to Level 50 within moments!

[The Flame Owl has met the condition for skill mutation. Please select the skill you want to mutate.]

[Flaming Bramble Inferno: Summons numerous fiery brambles from the ground to bind the enemy tightly. Each thorn on the brambles will cause fire-attribute explosion damage to the enemy. The harder the enemy struggles, the stronger the explosion would be.]

[Phoenix Fire Protection: Increases one's defense by half, and provides effective protection for the Beastmaster.]

“Huh…” Shen Fei's mouth twitched as he read the two skills.

The first skill was not bad. Not only could it bind the enemy, but it could also deal a huge amount of damage. It was much more useful than Blazing Charge.

But the second skill was an upgraded version of Ring of Fire. Although it could increase one's defense, it was only by half the stat value.

‘Let's take it first. When Flame Owl gets another chance to perform a second skill mutation in the future, I'll change to a better one.'

[Are you sure about your choice?]

[Confirm]

Following Shen Fei's decision, the Flame Owl's two skills immediately transformed into the new mutated skills.

“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl flapped its wings excitedly in front of Shen Fei, and the flames on its body became even hotter.

“Alright, alright.” Shen Fei took the Flame Owl that pounced towards his face and gave it a gentle squeeze.

Although the two new skills were far inferior to the Three-clawed Golden Dragon's skills, it was still better than before. However, it was easy to solve the problem of not having enough skills to choose from.

Previously, Shen Fei had considered getting two fire-attribute skill books for the Flame Owl to learn. After this training session, he would go to Nord Street and get some more.

There were quite a few Flame Owl Beastmasters in this world, so there would be more practical skills that it could learn. But finding skill books for the Three-clawed Golden Dragon's skills was more difficult.

Thinking of this, Shen Fei suddenly became distressed.

Firstly, there were very few dark-attribute spirit beasts. Secondly, the Three-clawed Golden Dragon was a dragon-type beast. It would be great if it could learn a skill from a dragon of the same dark attribute. However, there are very few Beastmasters with this type of familiar, so Shen Fei could only settle for the second best.

‘It's not like I can just ride the dragon, can I?'

Qian Yu's figure somehow came to Shen Fei's mind. He wondered if the great senior of the school was free to teach him.

‘I'll find an opportunity to contact him later. Another thing…' Shen Fei stretched out his hand and stroked the Flame Owl's fluffy feathers. “From now on, we'll have to change tactics.”

“Coo, coo?” The Flame Owl looked at Shen Fei with a puzzled expression. It tilted its head, clearly not understanding.

“We've already used the tactic of playing dead twice.”

The first time was in front of a limited audience. Since there were not many people watching that match, Shen Fei did not take it seriously.

The second time was the latest duel. In the live broadcast of the competition, it was a battle between two Echelons. The elites from other schools would have also observed them in real-time!

The game would also be broadcast back and forth to study his tactics. Therefore, if he were to use his original tactics, he would definitely be at a disadvantage!

It was time to change it up.
