Astral Pet Store Chapter 386

Chapter 386 - Double 9.9

The next day.

Su Ping returned from the Demigod Burial. In reality, only one afternoon and a night had passed but he had already spent half a month in the Demigod Burial.

There was an evident change in him. His energy had become more awe-inspiring… and his mindset was more determined. Also, he had progressed further in his level of handsomeness.

His stubble had grown out again.

Su Ping had done many things during the half a month in the Demigod Burial.

First of all, he used the Strength Enhancement astral runes to refine his entire body. At the moment, his arm wasn’t the only part that could wield twice the strength.

Besides, he had also refined the Dark Dragon Hound, the Inferno Dragon, and the Purple Python, increasing their combat strengths again!

It was disappointing that the Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound’s combat strengths were still stuck at 9.9; 10 was still out of reach!

Before the Strength Enhancement, their combat strengths were already at 9.9 and it stayed the same after the Strength Enhancement.

Su Ping didn’t know how many more decimal points were behind the 9. The only thing he could think of was that the scoring system was messing around with him. Aside from this, Su Ping took them to endure two more rounds of Heaven’s Tests during those two weeks.

The thundercloud kept on growing in size when Su Ping, the Dark Dragon Hound, and the Inferno Dragon joined in. This time, Su Ping had the Purple Python try the calamity as well.

But since the Purple Python had yet to pick up a flying skill, the Inferno Dragon would always have to throw the Purple Python to the Heaven’s Test area.

That was the Inferno Dragon’s favorite leisure activity when it was resting.

After some efforts (torture,) the Purple Python’s combat strength had been improved to 9.8, approaching the peak of the ninth-rank; it could be considered as a more powerful pet at the upper position of the ninth-rank.

When they weren’t taking Heaven’s Tests, while he was free, Su Ping would also learn the Astral Seal from Joanna, but a simplified version.

The complete version was too intricate and had higher requirements in regards to cultivation ranks. Given the amount of astral power Su Ping had, he could hardly learn the complete version. The simplified version could be used to seal astral powers of people below the legendary rank, which was enough for the time being

Also, Su Ping would chat with some guards at the True God Realm or the Celestial God Realm. Among other things, he would learn about weapon-using skills for spears and swords.

He didn’t get into the details but his learning did cover many aspects. Su Ping was still on the lookout for the most suitable weapon. If he had to pick one, his fist was probably his best choice. Maybe he had never been crazy about weapons because the Fist of Exorcist. He preferred to rely on his fists.

Those pets are at the sixth rank. When their combat strengths reach 10, the rating of their aptitude will probably be above average. By then, training for advanced pets will be available in the store, Su Ping thought.

Currently, the training services in the store could no longer fulfill his needs.

That was why he was in such a hurry to improve the Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound.

With the rule of thunder, the Strength Enhancement, and every other means he could think of, he had been trying to improve the Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound, but their combat strengths remained at 9.9. He thought he either had to drag them to more Heaven’s Tests or he would have to rely on some sudden stimulus that could give them a push.

For the time being, the Heaven’s Test was the only way.

Maybe, after one or two rounds, their combat strengths could reach 10.

This was not a matter that could be rushed into. Su Ping returned to the store. It was already past nine in the morning.

He cleared his mind, told Joanna to get ready and sorted out the pets that had finished training so that he could return those pets to the customers when they arrived.

He went to shave and get refreshed.

He looked into the mirror and was very happy about confirming his handsome looks; then he went back to the storefront and opened the scroll from which two girls jumped out. “Get ready for business,” Su Ping said to Tang Ruyan. Then he coldly said to Yan Bingyue, “This doesn’t concern you. Go back inside.”

Yan Bingyue was furious. She darted a look at Tang Ruyan which only had a meaning they could understand: ‘Don’t forget me if you can escape!

Tang Ruyan understood the meaning. “Since we’re so busy in the store, how about we let her help? I’m swamped as it is.” She thought she could give Yan Bingyue a hand.

Su Ping cast her a glance that seemed to reach the depths of her mind. Tang Ruyan felt her heart skip a beat.

“Then hurry up. Don’t waste energy on this petty niggling.” Tang Ruyan was afraid to say anything else. Yan Bingyue had no other option but to go back to the scroll.

Su Ping put away the scroll. “You have five minutes to get ready. We’re opening the doors.”

Without Yan Bingyue there, Tang Ruyan switched into waitress mode. She nodded and hurried to the bathroom to wash up.

Su Ping found his notebook and got prepared.

The door had not opened but he could tell that there was a huge crowd outside. After the commotion from the day prior, he believed that the store had surely become famous. More customers would visit them.

I wonder if the five major families will send people today. Su Ping squinted his eyes.

He didn’t open the door immediately. While Tang Ruyan was washing up, he went online to search for news in the base city.

One night had passed in the base city. However, the passing of a day seemed like a long time, since he had stayed in the Demigod Burial for half a month.

Soon, he saw many pieces of news posted on the internet.

All the news was about the pet store and him.

Su Ping browsed through the news one by one. Soon, he had gained a complete picture of the situation outside.

The Elite League had ended. The event from the day prior had brought more fame to the store than he had expected! Fame didn’t only come to the store. He had gone viral as well.

That was completely unexpected to Su Ping.

Well, well, killing those people was worthwhile, Su Ping thought.

Yan Bingyue would be hopping mad if she ever found out what Su Ping was thinking.

As Su Ping browsed through all the pieces of news, Tang Ruyan had finished freshening up.

There were a group of people that were flawlessly beautiful and didn’t require any makeup. They would be breathtakingly pretty when they had merely washed their faces. Tang Ruyan belonged to this group.

Of course, Su Ping would only eye her as anyone else and he could find nothing special about her.

“Go and open the door,” Su Ping said as he put away his phone.

Tang Ruyan went to open the door. She had become quite familiar with the daily routine.

Outside was a huge crowd of customers. Those closer to the door were standing in a line but those further away were scattered around. There were some reporters present with their equipment as if trying to shoot some videos.

Everyone looked over when the door opened. They stared at the opened door in a daze and rushed to the front the next second.

Those at the front of the line were almost pushed away by those running over.

The young man at the head of the line was pushed into Tang Ruyan’s arms. The moment that happened, the young man’s nose bled; he could not believe this good, romantic luck that came his way.

Then, she pressed her hands on his face.

Reality taught the young man a good lesson. Tang Ruyan squeezed his face to stop him from advancing any. While looking at the messy crowd, Tang Ruyan took a deep breath and shouted, “Silence!!”

As a seventh-rank battle pet warrior, her voice immediately quieted everyone down.

Her voice echoed in everyone’s ears, stunning them into stillness. Many people were surprised to find how strong the girl was. “Same as before, stand in a line and come in one by one. Don’t blame me if I get violent when any of you tries elbowing your way in!”

Tang Ruyan let go of the young man’s face and wiped the blood stained hand on his shoulder.

Those who didn’t stand in line looked at each other. They only found out at the moment that they did have to queue first.

A middle-aged man looked around and said, “Miss, I am an eighth-rank battle pet warrior. Can you let m…”

“I said, line up. Can’t you hear me? Are you deaf?!” Tang Ruyan glared at him.

The middle-aged man was speechless.

The others close to the middle-aged man stared at him in surprise. Unexpectedly, this bold man was an eighth-rank battle pet warrior. It was a good thing that they didn’t anger him. As Tang Ruyan required, everyone stood in line.

As the crowd was brought under control, the anger on Tang Ruyan’s face shifted to a smile in one second. She said to the young man who was still wiping blood off his nose, “Sir, welcome. Please come in.”

That sudden change of attitude left everyone dumbfounded.

The young man was also baffled. He scratched his head, smiled embarrassingly, and followed her into the store.

“This way, please. Take your time.” Tang Ruyan wore a professional smile.

What’s not to love about my new life after transmigrating into a Pet-centered world? There are mighty creatures that come in all shapes and sizes. They can either be cuddly companions, helpers in your daily life, daring scouts or strong fighters. Or all of the above. Not bad, huh? I have a family, but the fact is completely overshadowed by my younger sister. She thoroughly hates my guts, and she makes sure that I know this. Every. Single. Day. Did I mention that she’s disgustingly talented while I am a bottom feeder? A terribly handsome one at that. I have free rein to run the family business on my own. A small and quaint Pet Store. It should have been great if not for the fact that the previous owner of this body was born with ZERO affinity to handle Astral Pets… It wouldn’t be a proper transmigration without a gimmick or a system to pave my road to greatness, don’t you think? I have one, but I don’t know if I would be better off without it…
