Chapter 128: Xinyu’s Test
“So you’re talking about the trainer’s buffs.” Xinyu finally realized that she had thought wrongly after Fang Yuan’s explanation. She could not help but blush, then, she pretended as if nothing had happened and said, “The so-called buffs are just like the pet beasts you have.”
“For example my Youlan, which is the silver Pegasus. Her skills include flash, which breaks through the speed limit. An ordinary gryphon can fly at a maximum speed of 100 kilometers per hour. The maximum speed of most of the bird-type pets is 322 kilometers per hour. As for the reason, I only understand that if a pet beast’s speed exceeds the maximum speed, its body will collapse.
“However, after Youlan uses flash, its speed can reach 350 kilometers per hour. Its body structure will change, and it exists like light. At this time, what would happen if an ordinary person were to be on its body?”
“He will fall?” Fang Yuan saw that Xinyu was asking him, he just casually gave an answer. If he had known, he would not have asked Xinyu.
“A human body will fall apart at this speed.” Xinyu said seriously, “Don’t think that the air looks like it doesn’t have a physical body. In fact, when it is fast enough, the damage that they can cause is not less than that of a knife’s edge. This is because if you want to break through the resistance, you need to break their tension…”
Hearing Xin Yu start to talk about physics, Fang Yuan could not help but feel a big headache. Among all the science subjects, physics was the worst. Moreover, the physics in this world was quite different from the physics in the original world. At least in that world, there were no pets that “gave birth to energy out of thin air”.
“…”
After a long session, Xinyu finally got to the point. “The first trainer skill you want to learn when you come to our academy is [ listening ] .”
“Listening?”
When Fang Yuan heard this name, he felt dizzy. It sounded like a very profound skill, the lowest form.
“Yes.” Xinyu did not know how Fang Yuan felt, but she enjoyed the feeling of being a teacher. “You have to feel the changes in the pet’s body. What you can do is that its status will also be added to you.”
What?
Fang Yuan looked at Xinyu in disbelief. In the past, he only knew that trainers could add status, buffs, and even give pet beasts strength.
But this was the first time he heard that a pet could directly enhance a human.
“For example, after Youlan used flash, I received this skill buff, so I can go beyond the physical speed limit with it.”
Hearing this, Fang Yuan felt that it was a little ridiculous. Could it be that the trainer had to personally fight? Wouldn’t that be the perfect combination then?
“However, you have to understand one thing. Most of the skills that [ listening ] can accept are supportive buffs such as acceleration and mental power enhancement. If it’s an offensive buff, it’s impossible for humans to do it.” Finally, she saw clearly where Fang Yuan’s confusion was, and patiently explained.
The new knowledge that Fang Yuan received today had completely opened up his unknown territory.
Whether it was what the lotus lizard had told him or the knowledge that Xinyu had shared with him, Fang Yuan felt that there were too many unknown areas in this world.
…
Returning to his dormitory, which Fang Yuan’s was a single villa with a swimming pool. As for the ingredients in the fridge, everything was available. Every week, there would be logistics staff specialized in transporting the ingredients replenishing the food in the fridge. At the same time, they will dispose those which were about to expire.
Fang Yuan lay on the bench next to the swimming pool, leisurely flipping through the book “Pet’s Skill Exploration and Research”. Ah Li, Pick, Xiao Ying, and the other pet beasts were playing in the pool at the side.
As he did not need to fight, he did not need to constantly provide mental power. While he was resting, Fang Yuan could summon up to 200 pet beasts. This was a special ability given to him by the system.
That’s right, he was a dual pet trainer. With the support of the system, he had become an unprecedented 200 pet trainers. As long as he strengthened his mental power to its limit, he alone would be an entire army.
“Fang Yuan.” Xinyu went back to her dorm to tidy up, then ran over to look for Fang Yuan. She wanted to exchange some combat skills with him. When she walked into the villa, she saw Fang Yuan lying on the beach chair in his swimming trunks. She couldn’t help but blush.
“Strange, why do you blush when it’s just a beach costume?” Xinyu herself didn’t understand, but when she looked at Fang Yuan again, he had already put down the book and looked at her curiously.
…
“You have so many pet beasts! Can you summon them at the same time?” Ah Li was obviously someone who knew how to please others. It kept rubbing its face against Xinyu’s. It seemed that they were already very good friends.
Meanwhile, the gale hound and the shadow wolf, two canine pet beasts, were sleeping at the door. Moreover, their ears were moving. No matter what happened, it could not escape their surveillance.
Fang Yuan thought to himself, this woman is so strange. Why didn’t she cultivate and come to other people’s dorms? Fortunately, I’m not an exhibitionist. Otherwise, if I were to take off my clothes and swim in the pool, my reputation would be ruined.
After Xinyu, Ah Li, and Pick had played enough, she looked at Fang Yuan seriously and said, “Fang Yuan, I now know that you’re very strong. Can you teach me a little bit of fighting skills? I don’t want to lose in the college tournament next month. I want to beat Zhu Xu fair and square.”
Fang Yuan scratched his head and said, “I don’t know how to teach you battle techniques either. A lot of times, I fight based on Instinct.”
Instinct?
Xinyu thought that this might be a talent.
“Then can you practice with me for a while using your lotus giant lizard?”
“You Mean Nero, let me ask.” Fang Yuan remembered that before returning to the dormitory, Nero had told him not to disturb him for no reason.
“Ask… ?”
“Yes, Nero, the lotus giant lizard said that it is very busy now and has no time to come out. If you want to practice, the three-tailed spirit fox is enough. If you can defeat the three-tailed spirit fox, it is more than enough to defeat the sacred armor beast.” Fang Yuan repeated Nero’s words completely. He was a little confused. Ah Li was a platinum intermediate-grade pet beast, how could it be compared to the diamond low-grade sacred armor beast?
“Then where is the three-tailed spirit fox?” Xinyu’s eyes were sparkling. It sounded like the three-tailed spirit fox was a very powerful and fierce beast. It was her favorite type.
Fang Yuan pointed at Ah Li, who was rubbing against her arms. “Isn’t it always by your side?”
“Is this the one?” Xin Yu had just tested it. Ah Li was only a platinum intermediate-grade pet beast. “Can it defeat the scarab beast?”
“We’ll know if we try.” Fang Yuan yawned out of boredom. He had finally discovered Xin Yu’s weakness — undecisive.
Instead of being hesitant, it was better to give it a try.
