Xiao Qingkong Cup registration was complete, and Lin Chuan had also finished his lunch.

He glanced at the two little ones, who were still catching balls, with no surprises, so Lin Chuan prepared for his afternoon nap.

Huh?

Afternoon nap?

Is this Lin Chuan’s daily training schedule? Didn't he say he was going to burn the midnight oil? Why is there an afternoon nap?

No problem!

Lin Chuan’s training schedule originally didn't include an afternoon nap.

However, plans change.

When Lin Chuan used his cheat to impart new skills, it consumed more mental energy than simply adding proficiency, and the Healing Aroma he just imparted to Flower Leaf Leaf was a new skill that Flower Leaf Leaf didn't know yet, consuming a huge amount of mental energy and draining Lin Chuan's mental energy to the warning line.

At this moment, if he didn't temporarily modify his plan and take an afternoon nap to recover his mental energy, then even if his afternoon fitness training plan could proceed, the training effect would be greatly reduced.

Spend half an hour taking an afternoon nap? Or have the afternoon fitness training effect greatly reduced? Lin Chuan still knew how to weigh the pros and cons.

Returning to the Beast Master rest area.

Besides the two little ones, there was no one else in the sunroom, nor were there any surveillance devices or similar things; it was a completely private personal space.

So, Lin Chuan simply took off his shirt, revealing his upper body with clear abs and lean, well-defined contours, then lay on the reclining chair in just his large shorts, closing his eyes.

Half an hour passed quietly, and Lin Chuan was awakened by his alarm clock precisely on time.

After washing his face at the small fountain in the center of the sunroom and shaking off his sleepiness, Lin Chuan prepared to begin his afternoon plan.

First, check on the status of Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf.

Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf were still playing catch in the automatic ball-launching area.

Well, after nearly two hours of high-intensity, continuous physical ball catching, and constant injury and recovery, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf's newly formed wood fiber lipid layers were almost consolidated and hardened.

Initially, when a ball landed on them, it would injure them all over in one minute, knocking them down, forcing them to use Rooting and Photosynthesis for self-healing.

But now, under the same ball speed and intensity, Guoguo could last almost 5 minutes without being knocked down, and Flower Leaf Leaf's limit also reached 4 minutes.

The difference was because Guoguo had a stronger will when first absorbing the Primary Flora Resilience Ointment, and was more efficient when using skills like Rooting, finishing absorption an hour earlier than Flower Leaf Leaf.

Therefore, Guoguo naturally started the automatic ball training an hour earlier than Flower Leaf Leaf.

There was a difference, but it was already acceptable, sufficient, and there was no need to forcibly equalize it.

Moreover, this was only the first day of advanced cultivation, and only the first can of Primary Flora Resilience Ointment.

They would have to continue after tomorrow, and if Flower Leaf Leaf was unwilling to lose, she could slowly catch up later.

As for whether she could catch up, that depended on Flower Leaf Leaf's own persistence and effort.

As for Lin Chuan, he could at most give Flower Leaf Leaf more pep talks and cheer her on from the side, but he would not give Flower Leaf Leaf special preferential treatment or more ointment to force her to catch up to Guoguo.

For defensive attribute advanced cultivation, this was pretty much sufficient for today.

So, next, it was time for energy adaptability advanced cultivation.

The nutrient used for energy adaptability advanced cultivation was called Primary Flora Meridian Enhancer, and this medicine was taken orally.

However, the Flower Leaf Leaf species only has a small black line for a mouth, which can only produce sounds and cannot truly open to eat, so this medicine could only be injected into the two little ones' bodies.

Seeing Lin Chuan pull out a large syringe only slightly thinner than his arm, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf both trembled.

Even spirit beasts, when faced with an injection and looking at the sharp, cold needle, would be afraid.

Fortunately, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf are Wood Attribute plant-type spirit beasts, and the pain sensation of Wood Attribute plant-type spirit beasts is much weaker than that of other spirit beasts, such as animal-type ones. If it were a sensitive animal-type spirit beast, injections would truly be their bane; if it wasn't someone they were particularly close to giving them the injection, they would definitely attack violently.

Under Lin Chuan's firm and unyielding gaze, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf approached.

Normally, they would compete to be the first to run to Lin Chuan's side, but at this moment, the two little ones were very deferential, both wanting to push the other forward.

Well, Lin Chuan didn't have that many thoughts; based on the principle of proximity, he directly grabbed the closer Flower Leaf Leaf.

Splat! Before Flower Leaf Leaf could react, the syringe was pricked in.

“Ying ying ying~!!”

Flower Leaf Leaf let out a mournful cry, and Guoguo's expression changed slightly; he took half a step back.

However, how could Lin Chuan let him go? Without giving Guoguo a chance to escape, Lin Chuan caught him in three steps, then, another splat.

The two little ones were down.

The Primary Flora Meridian Enhancer was successfully injected into the bodies of the two little ones.

Gradually, like inflated balloons, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf's already plump figures swelled a bit, appearing somewhat round.

For a moment, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf couldn't get up.

Ultimately, Lin Chuan helped them, supporting their rounded bodies upright.

Lin Chuan checked the medicine instructions he had already read dozens of times, while asking the two little ones to describe their current feelings.

Well, Lin Chuan couldn't understand the spirit beast language of the two little ones.

However, through the contract, and the two little ones' body language and vocal emotions, Lin Chuan could still accurately judge the situation.

First.

Primary Flora Meridian Enhancer did not have the 'stimulating' user experience of Primary Flora Resilience Ointment.

Lin Chuan didn't know the specific taste; he hadn't tasted it and didn't dare to. It's better for humans not to randomly consume such spirit beast advanced cultivation nutrients, otherwise the consequences would be more than just diarrhea. Judging from the two little ones' cries and satisfied expressions, the taste should be quite good.

Then, Lin Chuan asked if there was any bad feeling.

Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf both shook their heads slightly, patting their rounded bodies with their chubby hands, indicating a full but warm and very comfortable feeling.

With such feedback, Lin Chuan nodded in satisfaction; it was exactly as written in the medicine's usage instructions.

If absorption was not a problem, then the rest was digestion.

The digestion method of Primary Flora Meridian Enhancer was not like using Rooting, Photosynthesis, and Growth to strengthen absorption and accumulate medicinal nutrients in the skin layer, then digesting them through continuous injury and recovery, as was the case with Primary Flora Resilience Ointment. Instead, it was through continuously using various energy skills, allowing the medicine to fully nourish every meridian as energy circulated within the body.

In short, it meant continuously using energy skills, using them until the body was no longer rounded and returned to its original appearance.

For Guoguo, energy-related skills included the three basic skills: Rooting, Photosynthesis, Growth, and Bomb Fruit.

The first three skills were stable, but relatively less efficient, so Lin Chuan ultimately had Guoguo use Bomb Fruit.

The Bomb Fruit skill requires full concentration of spirit, energy, and vitality, instantly mobilizing and compressing all the body's energy. Its efficiency and intensity in using energy are far greater than other skills, making it very suitable for digesting Primary Flora Meridian Enhancer.

More importantly, it could also increase skill proficiency. Lin Chuan wasn't sure when he would be able to find another Bomb Fruit inheritance material to add proficiency to Guoguo, otherwise he would have to look in high-level spirit beast materials, which would be extremely expensive.

For Flower Leaf Leaf, if it were before, Lin Chuan would definitely have her activate the three-stage tank mode: Rooting, Photosynthesis, and Growth.

But now, there was a better option: Healing Aroma.

This skill was also an energy skill.

Its efficiency and intensity in using energy were not lower than the combination of the three basic skills. More importantly, Healing Aroma was only at the introductory level, and frequent use could also increase proficiency!

Although he still had a petal of Healing Aroma inheritance material in his hand, which could increase proficiency through inheritance.

However, he couldn't always rely on his cheat, could he?

What if there was a super powerful skill in the future, with no inheritance material, only a learning manual? Would he teach it to his spirit beasts or not?

At that time, wouldn't he only be able to learn it step by step like other Beast Masters?

Therefore, cheats should be used, but not relied on too much.

It shouldn't be that without skill inheritance materials, skill training would completely stop.

And so, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf began their respective training.

Because Bomb Fruit consumed a huge amount of energy, even for the current Guoguo, 10 uses a day was the limit.

Therefore, Lin Chuan let him exert his subjective initiative and his extraordinary talent in energy, in short, his comprehension. He was to use as little energy as possible to cast Bomb Fruit, trying to condense it without releasing it, gathering the energy, but not actually throwing it until he truly couldn't control it anymore.

Guoguo's extraordinary talent in energy did not disappoint Lin Chuan; his comprehension was astonishing.

After only 3 attempts, Guoguo condensed a mini Bomb Fruit only the size of a thumb.

Lin Chuan had previously come across advanced usage techniques for the Bomb Fruit skill.

Among them was one called 'Mother-Child Bomb,' where one Bomb Fruit exploded into countless mini Bomb Fruits for carpet bombing.

The prerequisite for learning the Mother-Child Bomb Fruit was the ability to condense this mini-type Bomb Fruit.

On the other side.

Flower Leaf Leaf continuously used Healing Aroma, which had already dyed the air in the two-meter radius around her a faint bluish-pink.

Lin Chuan was certain that if he stepped into that bluish-pink area now, he would immediately be hallucinated and entranced.

With the two little ones arranged, and after adding the second-tier Spiritual Wood Heart cultivation buff to them, Lin Chuan himself began his fitness training according to his schedule.

For Beast Masters themselves, especially new Beast Masters, what is most important?

Which aspect of physical quality?

Is it strength? Reaction speed? Observation? Or the control and usage techniques of that meager energy within the body?

None of them!

The primary quality for a new Beast Master is agility!

Secondly, endurance!

As the saying goes, where there's life, there's hope.

When a new Beast Master encounters visible danger, they shouldn't just charge in recklessly, unless they have absolute certainty. At that point, it's fine to bravely take on the challenge, otherwise, making a quick escape is the most correct choice.

Agility allows the Beast Master to run fast when making a quick escape.

Endurance allows the Beast Master to run for a long time.

Although he had a cheat, and Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf's Growth progress was rapid, constantly stacking shields and enabling double defense, what might be dangerous for other new Beast Masters might be just so-so for Lin Chuan. However, Lin Chuan didn't want to gamble on that 'might'; if he truly encountered an insurmountable dangerous situation, Lin Chuan hoped he would have the option to escape.

That's why Lin Chuan's current fitness regimen mainly involved running! Then jumping rope, frog jumps; in short, it was about training leg strength to make himself run fast and run long.

Accelerated running on the treadmill.

Running at his limit with full weights, weighted jump rope, weighted frog jumps.

When he couldn't train anymore, he would drink the energy drinks he bought earlier. He would rest for a while and then continue training.

...

Time passed quietly.

A week went by, and besides the first day where plans didn't quite keep up with changes.

In the following days, Lin Chuan strictly followed his planned schedule for training.

First, the remaining letter was delivered on the second day, earning him 3000 star rock coins and 2 points.

Secondly, Flower Leaf Leaf's illusion talent.

Lin Chuan used another petal of Healing Aroma on Flower Leaf Leaf on the second day, raising the proficiency of Healing Aroma from introductory to ordinary.

After testing, the hallucinatory effect showed no actual change, or rather, the change was negligible, too weak to manifest. Could it be that this method of improvement was incorrect?

Well, Lin Chuan thought about it and realized it was true; after all, Healing Aroma was a healing skill, not a true Illusion Attribute skill.

It seemed that to improve her illusionary energy, she would need to learn true Illusion Attribute skills, or evolve Flower Leaf Leaf into Flower Spirit, changing from a pure Wood Attribute to a Wood and Illusion dual attribute. That way, there might be a huge change.

Back to the main topic, regarding the various situations over the subsequent six days.

Lin Chuan added points to Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf once each day.

Currently, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf's skill progress was as follows:

Guoguo: Rooting (Expert), Photosynthesis (Expert), Growth (Proficient), Grass Flute (Skilled), Vine Armor Shield (Ordinary), Wood Spirit Shield (Introductory), Bomb Fruit (Skilled).

Flower Leaf Leaf: Rooting (Expert), Photosynthesis (Expert), Growth (Proficient), Grass Flute (Skilled), Vine Armor Shield (Skilled), Healing Aroma (Ordinary), Poison Powder (Ordinary), Confusing Words (Introductory).

It is necessary to mention here the two shield skills: Vine Armor Shield and Wood Spirit Shield.

Wood Spirit Shield was a skill material Lin Chuan found by chance while browsing Beast Master shops during his training this week.

Vine Armor Shield was already present, and he recently found 2 more by chance.

Wood Spirit Shield is a pure energy protective shield. Compared to Vine Armor Shield, it has a faster release speed but relatively lower defense, and is extremely easy to break when encountering counteracting attribute energy.

Vine Armor Shield, on the other hand, is a more physical shield with a solid body. Upon release, it temporarily makes the spirit beast's skin vine-like, as if wearing armor. Its release speed is relatively slower, but its defense is high.

So why is it called Vine Armor Shield and not Vine Armor Armor?

The reason is that when the proficiency of Vine Armor Shield reaches the skilled level, the spirit beast can actively peel off the vine-like woody skin on its body and transform it into various desired shapes: shields, walls, or barriers. It can be used for self-defense, or to provide buffs to others, even area-of-effect buffs.

In terms of skills, because of the cheat, Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf's progress made Lin Chuan very satisfied.

But in terms of level, Lin Chuan was a little unhappy; he gave the two little ones the Spiritual Wood Heart cultivation buff every day, but the progress was still very slow.

Well, he couldn't blame Guoguo and Flower Leaf Leaf; they were already working very hard. But the key issue was their spirit beast bloodline; the mid-tier soldier-level bloodline was now clearly limiting their level Growth speed.

Guoguo had risen to Level 17, and Flower Leaf Leaf had also risen to Level 17.

Receiving the upgrade feedback from the two spirit beasts, Lin Chuan's Beast Master level also rose from Level 5 to Level 6.
