Chapter 146: Chapter 63: The Essential Qualities of a Beast Tamer (Seeking Investment and Follow-up Readers)
"Then let me arrange a training plan for the two of you," Lin Su said with a light cough, turning his gaze to Qiuqiu, "Starting with Qiuqiu first."
"Meow!" (I\'m ready!)
"Let\'s take a look at the skills you currently possess..." As Lin Su spoke, he started writing on a piece of paper.
The world of Shenwu is inconvenient in this aspect; if it were on Blue Star, all he would need to do is to enter it into the communicator\'s functional module, and when needed, pull it up for a clear view.
"Currently, you have five Talent Skills: Cold Frost Dream Domain, Frost Silence Storm, Snow Explosion, Snow Trace, and Monarch Power," Lin Su listed these five skills and then turned to look at Qiuqiu, "Apart from Snow Trace, which has already reached the third tier, your other four skills are all at the first tier."
"Meow! (≖ω≖)" (Damn it!)
Qiuqiu, who had previously trained all its skills to at least the second tier, slumped at Lin Su\'s words.
It must be noted that when its skills were all above the second tier, its growth phase was at the Juvenile Stage, with skills generally at the first tier proficiency. Now with its evolution, Qiuqiu\'s growth phase had advanced to the Elite Stage, yet its skill proficiency unexpectedly regressed instead of improving...
"During your battles in the Nirvana Secret Realm against those elite beasts, your easy victories were due to the suppression effect of Monarch Power, the presence of other taught skills, and the unique nature of the Spirit type itself. But, this doesn\'t mean your strength is unbeatable at the Elite Stage. If you face Elite Stage beasts of the Monarch species, your advantages will disappear completely," Lin Su\'s expression grew a bit more serious.
"So do you understand what you need to do now?"
"Meow!" (Improve Talent Skills proficiency!)
"Exactly," Lin Su said with a smile. "But you don\'t need to worry too much. Advancing from the first to the second tier is actually the simplest, and with the help of the Beast Tamer Tower, it won\'t be difficult."
"What\'s most important now is to first improve the proficiency of Frost Silence Storm," Lin Su mused for a moment before soon giving his instructions.
"The first reason being that Frost Silence Storm originates from a core skill transformation, and increasing its proficiency will be much faster than with other skills. If there are no surprises, it could reach the second tier after a few dozen more trainings, which should be achievable today, after all..."
Since Ghost hadn\'t made a contract with Lin Su yet, he refrained from finishing his sentence in its presence, but Qiuqiu immediately understood.
After training for an afternoon here, there would still be a whole day left to train on Blue Star, more than enough time to practice Frost Silence Storm dozens of times.
"Meow!" (Break through to the second tier of Frost Silence Storm in one day!)
Seeing that Qiuqiu understood him, Lin Su nodded, "As for the second reason... once you enter the Beast Tamer Tower, the first layer will pit you against Elite Stage beasts of the Monarch species with second tier skills. If Frost Silence Storm remains at the first tier, even passing the first layer could be tough, and our efficiency in conquering the Beast Tamer Tower would be too low."
"Meow... (๑ŏωŏ๑)
Having previously conquered the Beast Tamer Tower smoothly and unchallenged through the first five layers, it was only after Lin Su\'s reminder that Qiuqiu remembered that with its own evolution, the opponents inside the Beast Tamer Tower would also change to even more powerful foes.
Damn, no more beating up Fire Cloud Dogs!
"Once Frost Silence Storm breaks through, we should be able to challenge the Beast Tamer Tower tomorrow and see what the new opponents inside are really like," Lin Su\'s eyes gleamed with curiosity.
Under normal circumstances, after Qiuqiu enters the Beast Tamer Tower, the first three levels should introduce Frost Flower Dream Shadow as opponents, but since Qiuqiu\'s evolution is different from a typical Frost Flower Dream Shadow, predicting the kind of opponents that might appear is tricky.
"Among these four skills, Frost Silence Storm, Cold Frost Dream Domain, and Snow Explosion can all be trained in the Beast Tamer Tower," Lin Su continued, "However, Monarch Power might be a bit different."
"Meow?" (So how do we train Monarch Power then?)
"This skill isn\'t one that you train by number of uses; it\'s somewhat similar to skills like Frost Eyes, belonging to the continuous category, and therefore isn\'t very effective to train inside the Beast Tamer Tower," Lin Su explained with a smile, "Typically, for continuous skills to improve, they need to be maintained for as long as possible."
"But Monarch Power is a special case. If you maintain Monarch Power at all times, you\'ll scare away all the friends in the garden." As he imagined Qiuqiu maintaining Monarch Power in the garden, causing the other beasts to flee in panic, Lin Su\'s expression became rather odd.
"Meow?" (Then how should it be trained?)
Seeing Qiuqiu\'s dejected look, Lin Su couldn\'t help but rub its little head, "There are two pieces of good news regarding training Monarch Power."
"Meow!" (Good news!)
"While Monarch Power is a skill that, regardless of type, every Monarch species is destined to awaken, from an analysis of supernatural forces, this skill leans more towards the Spirit category. So as a Spirit type, you can train this skill at double the speed," Lin Su said with a smile. "Does that count as good news?"
This finding had been discovered by those on Blue Star, and a similar conclusion was drawn early on in the world of Shenwu as well.
