Chapter 161: Chapter 69: Sneaky Contract! (Seeking investment and followers)_2
At that time, Qiuqiu had discovered Snow Blow precisely because of this.
After reaching Level III, Shadow Concealment truly mastered the art, no longer leaving any trace of supernatural powers and greatly increasing its mobility. It shifted from requiring contact with a shadow to move from one object\'s shadow to another\'s, to being able to transfer within a certain range without contact.
Beyond Shadow Concealment, Ghost\'s Flying Knife Skill also advanced to Level III—now capable of using nine knives at once. However, the proficiency level of the Flying Knife Skill did not represent a transformation but rather a quantitative increase, contributing less to the strength enhancement.
The Substitute Skill had not been Ghost\'s focus during this period. According to Lin Su\'s previous training plan, it was best to enter the Beast Taming Tower after forming a contract, because within the Dream Crystal Stone there was no cooldown. The Substitute could be trained consecutively, which would be far more effective.
Because it hadn\'t been trained many times, the proficiency of Substitute had barely changed, yet under Lin Su\'s guidance, Ghost mastered an interesting combo skill.
This combo skill was somewhat similar to the initial Snow Blow + Snow Trace of Qiuqiu.
Substitute could swap the positions of non-living objects within a certain radius around the body with its own, but in actual combat, there weren\'t always non-living objects nearby available for substitution, so the Substitute Skill had its limitations in practical use.
However, Ghost had another skill that could create non-living objects—Flying Knife Skill.
By throwing a knife and activating Substitute before the knife left the effective range, Ghost could replace the knife\'s position with its own, achieving targeted substitution within the range of Substitute, and further enhancing the already miraculous effects of the Substitute Skill.
This combo skill wasn\'t considered highly clever; almost all Beast Tamers with simple tricks in their arsenal would know it, and wild trick players who had seen their kind perform or were taught by others could grasp it too.
Perhaps because it was mistakenly captured into the Nirvana Secret Realm at a young age, Ghost never had the chance to learn this combo skill until Lin Su\'s guidance enlightened it, quickly getting familiar with it.
Seeing his two pets working so hard, Lin Su naturally couldn\'t slack off. After a period of meditation cultivation, he finally advanced his Beast Taming Space to the third level on the day before Mountain City University\'s enrollment assessment, completely exhausting the energy of the Space Heart.
...
The light of dawn filtered through the minute gaps in the closed curtains beside the window, scattering speckles across the head of the bed.
Awakening amid the alarm of the communicator, Lin Su suddenly sat up, pressed the lamp beside the bed, and let the brightly lit light reveal everything neatly arranged in the room.
Under his feet, yellowish light slowly intertwined into a Formation; under controlled restraint, it did not create too much noise as two figures slowly emerged from the teleportation formation.
"Yeah? (。⊙‿⊙。)" ("Is this Blue Star?")
Ghost surveyed its surroundings, eyes filled with curiosity.
Last night, after advancing to Level III, Lin Su contracted with Ghost and disclosed his secret to it.
So, having roughly understood the situation through the explanations of Lin Su and Qiuqiu, Ghost stepped out of Beast Taming Space into an entirely different world and felt incredibly amazed.
"Not bad," Lin Su smiled and then, with eyes showing a bit of excitement, said, "Ghost, try taking something out."
"Meow! (。✪ω✪。)" ("Little brother, it\'s all up to you!")
Excitement also shone in Qiuqiu\'s eyes as it intently watched Ghost\'s palm.
Whether or not they could treat the little fox to a catnip-flavored Energy Cube all depended on this moment!
"Yeah!" ("Okay!")
Ghost nodded, raising one hand as black smoke wrapped around its body rapidly converged in its palm, then trembled slightly, and a piece of crystal that resembled obsidian suddenly appeared in the palm of Ghost.
This was a dark element fourth-tier resource that Ghost always carried.

Following the advancement to Level III, not only had the storage space of the trick pocket expanded significantly, but the action of retrieving items was simplified as well; no longer was it necessary to pull from the pocket to retrieve items.
Seeing an artifact of the Divine Martial World genuinely appearing on Blue Star, Lin Su and Qiuqiu exchanged glances, their eyes filled with ecstasy.
Being able to carry items between two worlds greatly supplemented his ability to travel across these worlds, even saying it was an epic enhancement was not an exaggeration.
"This is great." Lin Su\'s face beamed with smiles as he picked up the communicator, pointed it at Ghost, and said, "Let me measure your normal-energy level."
Although Lin Su had been able to grasp Ghost\'s condition before, the lack of precise numerical references meant the training plans could not be accurately controlled. Now that Ghost could also come to Blue Star, it was naturally time for a test.
The light swept over, and the scanning result of Ghost appeared.

The Beast Tamer\'s performing clown, being a pet species not yet seen on Blue Star, resulted in unknown scanning results; however, Ghost\'s normal energy value gave Lin Su quite a surprise.
