The insects in my house are dragons.

Chapter 69 Strength Test

Wednesday morning.

Yun Che sat in the training room, gently rubbing a thin film on his hand.

This is Kongkong's first skin shedding this morning, its eleventh time shedding its skin.

He originally estimated that after ten molts, Kongkong would be close to reaching the extraordinary level.

But now it seems that he underestimated Kong Kong's potential.

However, this time, Kongkong's appearance was almost unchanged from the last time it molted.

My body has been strengthened once again, and the forced training device has been set to level six.

But this time, Yun Che had a real intuition that when Kong Kong sheds its skin again, it will probably undergo a qualitative change.

This "no change" is simply a period of settling down.

Collect the remains.

Looking at the books spread out to the side, there were Dr. Niu's observation notes, "Analysis of the Extraordinary Creature Purple Amber Cat", and "Introduction to the Application of Pet Energy" which I had just borrowed.

I glanced at the system space.

There is one purple mastery seed left.

Those two were used to raise Kongkong's Dragon Dance skill proficiency from Master to Master level.

In addition, Kongkong also learned the skill Swiftness and honed its proficiency to the master level.

If you want to advance further, your current lack of seed mastery will slow your progress by dozens of times.

However, Iris doesn't currently have this problem.

It not only learned the new skill of eating dreams, but also improved its proficiency in almost all of its skills.

But Iris doesn't have that much free time each day for training.

For example, right now.

It lay beside Yun Che, with a relatively intact dragon horn beneath it.

It was the dragon horn that originated from the Abyssal Bone Dragon. After Dr. Niu conducted a thorough examination and confirmed that there were no problems, Lan Xiangya was allowed to send it to the school.

This dragon horn is rich in dragon-attribute energy and semi-ghost energy, which is shared by Kongkong and Iris.

Currently, Iris is drawing on the semi-ghost energy from it.

Actually, the biggest problem facing Yun Che right now is...

Energy cubes are all gone!

He had to find new food for the two little ones to meet their daily training and growth needs.

These days.

By reading books and researching information, and combining illustrations with his pet's own situation, he has developed a dietary "plan" that is quite suitable for his pet.

It will cost some credits, but it's all worth it.

...

Nine o'clock in the morning.

There was a knock on the door of the training room.

"Please come in."

Liu Yuanqi walked in carrying a thermos. His hair was still messy, but the smell of alcohol was much weaker than last time.

"Coach Liu." Yun Che stood up.

"Sit down." Liu Yuanqi pulled over a chair and sat down opposite Yun Che, his gaze sweeping over Kong Kong.

In the week or so since Yun Che joined the school team, Liu Yuanqi seemed to have forgotten the promise he made when he invited him.

In reality, he spent a lot of time watching videos of Yun Che and Kong Kong challenging the seventh and eighth levels of Jianghuai Tower. Only by gaining a sufficient understanding could he provide guidance and instruction to a certain extent.

Instead of relying on their high status and strong abilities to give random advice.

That's irresponsible to others, and also irresponsible to yourself.

"Your green... let's just call it a green velvet worm for now, is cultivated quite well."

"Among all the dragon cubs I've ever seen, including king-level cubs, it's the most outstanding one at the same strength level."

Liu Yuanqi was generous with his praise, giving it a very high evaluation.

Moreover, he didn't compare Kongkong with other green velvet worms or ordinary pets, but rather with pets that at least possess dragon attributes.

"Chirp!!" Kongkong raised its head high and raised its eyes at Yun Che.

Look how amazing the flight attendant is!

"You flatter me..." Yun Che remained modest in the face of praise.

With both exceptional talent and hard work, it would be truly unacceptable not to achieve some results.

Liu Yuanqi waved his hand to stop him, "Whether it's physical fitness or skills, they are all outstanding. Especially their skill proficiency."

Yun Che heard the emphasis on the word "special" in his words.

To be honest, Kongkong's skill proficiency is truly exaggerated.

How long has it been since he subdued Kong Kong?

It hasn't even been two months yet.

One low-level skill at the peak level, two mid-level skills at the master level, and one high-level skill at the master level...

This level of skill proficiency is so impressive, it's almost frightening.

Many master-level beast tamers may not have a single skill with peak proficiency, and may even have very few skills with master-level proficiency.

Skill proficiency, from beginner to expert, can be achieved through hard work.

But from mastery to mastery, and then to the pinnacle, this cannot be achieved through mere effort.

"Talent." Yun Che picked up Kong Kong and said, "This little guy has outstanding talent."

"Chirp!" Kong Kong's face practically screamed "pride."

In fact, Yun Che had long been prepared to be asked about his skill proficiency.

Anyway.

Just attribute it all to Kongkong's talent.

Even a green velvet worm can transform into a dragon, so what's a few billion more points of talent?

Liu Yuanqi gave Yun Che a deep look, as if he had seen through something, but he didn't say anything and chose to remain silent.

Even if you explained it to him, he still wouldn't be able to find the reason.

"So in terms of skills, besides teaching new skills, there's not much else I can teach you. You're even better than me."

Yun Che was embarrassed, "It's not that exaggerated, Coach Liu..."

"All my pets combined only have three peak-level skills. I... I guess I'd call myself a master-level beast tamer." A strange look flashed across Liu Yuanqi's face when he said "master-level beast tamer."

Yun Che: "..."

"So all I can teach you is how to cultivate, how to assist in the dragon transformation, and how to strengthen your physique."

As he spoke, he took out a form.

The document lists a lot of materials.

"Over the past few days, I've compiled a list for you based on your pet's condition."

These days, when he's not drunk, he's mainly been doing these things.

Yun Che accepted the form with delight.

He also prepared a plan for Kongkong, so he could see if his plan differed from Coach Liu's approach and how much they differed.

But when Yun Che saw the materials on the form, his expression froze.

Entry and exit?

This is completely different!

They're not even in the same league!

"Third-level resources?"

The table is almost entirely filled with level 3 resources, with only a very small number of level 2 resources used as supplementary materials.

Liu Yuanqi smacked his lips, opened the thermos, and took a sip.

Frowning, she disdainfully set the thermos aside and said irritably:

"Your pet is already this strong and in this condition, you're not still thinking of using level-two resources to train it, are you?"

The tone of voice was full of the feeling of "wasting resources".

Yun Che: "..."

Liu Yuanqi leaned forward, looked intently at Yun Che, and said:

"You must remember this."

"The physique of dragon-attribute extraordinary creatures is powerful, but this power can only be fully unleashed through abundant resources!"

If you let a dragon eat grass and wild fruit every day, how much stronger can it be than a superhuman creature of the same level after it grows up?

The greater the potential and the stronger an animal is, the more nutrients and energy it should consume.

In other words, Kongkong is currently only in the late stage of the mutation. Once he reaches the level of low-level extraordinary strength, Liu Yuanqi's list will include a few more level-four resources.

"Chirp~" Kongkong stretched out its head, looking at the list, and its mouth watered uncontrollably.

(Ah Che, I think this, this, this, and this all taste pretty good.)

Yun Che gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay!"

It's just consumption, isn't it?

All those credits I worked so hard to earn are meant to be spent, to nurture Kongkong and Iris!

Liu Yuanqi nodded in satisfaction, picked up the thermos again, opened the lid, and asked:

"Have you done the strength test?"

The school team's training room is equipped with all sorts of testing instruments.

Strength tests, speed tests, reaction time tests, resilience tests, energy tests, and so on.

"I've taken the test."

"How much?" Liu Yuanqi took a sip of water.

"Not high... 1281."

slam-la-

The water in the thermos spilled all over the floor.

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Liu Yuanqi pulled out a tissue and bent down to wipe the water on the floor, covering his twitching cheeks.

Strength test score of 1281?!

A pet beast whose normal race level is intermediate extraordinary and whose strength level is late-stage mutation has a strength test standard of around 100.

1281, 12 times!

Even though Liu Yuanqi thought he had a high opinion of Yun Che and Kong Kong, he was still shocked by this result.

After wiping the floor, he snatched the list from Yun Che's hand and took out a pen.

"Coach Liu?" Yun Che called out softly.

"It's alright, there was a slight discrepancy in the initial assessment, just increase the amount a little."

Add a little...?

Yun Che watched as Liu Yuanqi crossed out "×0.5" and changed it to "×2".

"Chirp?" Kongkong scratched his head.

Was this taken the day before yesterday?

It just shed its skin today, and I haven't even had a chance to test it yet...

Yun Che quickly covered his empty mouth.

Don't add any more!

"Take this list to the incubation center later and give it to Professor Li. She will help you turn these materials into more palatable food," Liu Yuanqi instructed as he wrote.

"OK."

"Oh, by the way. The school team officially starts recruiting next week. Remember to come and report for duty and help with the assessment."

Yun Che was taken aback upon hearing this.

"Me? The assessment?"

Liu Yuanqi looked up at him and said only three words, "It's worth credits."

"Report on time!"
