Unserious Beast Tamer

Contract Pet Beast!

When he finally got to this step, Xu Ran was still a little nervous.

He slowly closed his eyes, feeling as if a white vortex of light was slowly rotating deep in his consciousness.

This is the power of First Stage Contract.

With it, Xu Ran can complete a contract with a Transcendent Stage pet beast.

As Xu Ran released the contract power from his body, and let it envelop the little kitten, a strange bond kept him connected to the little kitten in front of him.

The contract, effective!

A wave of warmth flowed from between Xu Ran's eyebrows to his every limb, enhancing his physical attributes universally. The sensation felt like soaking in a hot spring, which almost made him groan in pleasure.

This is the power feedback after contracting a pet beast.

Feeling the newly upgraded physical attributes, Xu Ran picked up the little kitten.

"Shall I give you a name?"

"Meow~" (Okay!)

The little kitten's voice rang out, but unlike before, Xu Ran could easily understand its meaning at this moment.

This is the magical effect after contracting a Transcendent Being.

"Let me think..." Xu Ran carefully observed the little kitten.

Its glossy long fur, which had just been washed and conditioned not long ago, was delicate, smooth, and cloud-like. It made the purple thunderbolt mark on its forehead even more clear.

And it was a little female kitten.

So...

"What do you think of Electric Mom?"

(≖ω≖)

The kitten's hopeful expression froze.

"Just kidding." Xu Ran chuckled, "Let's call you Ziyun."

"Meow~" (Sounds great!)

Compared to "Electric Mom," the kitten found the name Ziyun incredibly pleasant sounding.

"In that case, it's settled."

Xu Ran held Ziyun and opened the system panel.

After contracting a pet beast, several new entries appeared on the panel.

[Host: Xu Ran

Contract Power: First Stage

Contract Pet Beast: Ziyun[View Details]

System Skills:

[Plucking Fur (D-level)](1/100)

Pet Beast Skills:

[★Claw Edge](Can Teach)

Pleasure Value: 174

System Upgrade Experience: 50/1000]

After two single extract functions, only a fraction of the Pleasure Value was left.

The option for Contract Pet Beast no longer displayed"None," and the previous Pet Beast Skill Claw Edge was no longer ominously marked "No Teaching Target," which meant that this skill could be taught to Ziyun.

Xu Ran's gaze fell on the[View Details]that appeared next to Ziyun's name.

As he contracted a pet beast, it seemed the system was endowed with some new additions.

After clicking 'view details', a new panel emerged.

[Contract Pet Beast: Ziyun

Race Name: Electric Chasing Cat

Attribute: Thunder Attribute

...]

Up till here, the panel was almost identical to the previous system Identification Function.

Xu Ran continued to look down.

[...

Growth Stage: Transcendent Stage (123/500)

Species Rank: Leader Species

Skills:

[★★Electric Spark (Stardust Level)](0/100)

[★★Electric Arc (Stardust Level)](0/100)

[★Bite (Stardust Level)](0/100)

New things have appeared, and Xu Ran nodded in satisfaction.

The growth stages were also present in the identification function of the previous system, but the display on the current panel clearly shows more than what was seen on the identification page.

(123/500), this obviously represents the progress towards the next growth stage.

When a pet beast naturally grows to a certain level, it upgrades to the corresponding stage.

Transcendent Beings that have just awoken, or newborn Transcendent Being cubs, are at the first growth stage: Transcendent Stage.

Then comes the Elite Stage and higher growth stages that follow.

Having solid data, he can better control Ziyun's growth. For this, Xu Ran was quite satisfied.

His gaze moved to the next aspect: Race Stage.

Having the predecessor's memory, he had a certain understanding of this.

The higher the race stage, the stronger the pet beast's skills, and the higher the future growth stage limit.

No matter if it's a natural awakening or an offspring of Transcendent Beings, all newborns belong to the Leader species race stage, even if their parents are of a higher race stage.

Transcendent Beings can undergo a special metamorphosis called "evolution", which allows their own race stage to be upgraded and pushes the limit of their growth stage.

Of course, this is still a little far off for Xu Ran.

Xu Ran calmly looked down and saw Ziyun's pet beast skills.

Two stars Electric Spark, two stars Electric Arc, one star Bite skill.

The Stardust Level behind the three skills represents their skill proficiency level.

For pet beast skills, the star level is not the only factor determining their power.

The same skill, if used many times, can become more proficient, and hence, can exert a greater power.

When "0" becomes "100", the skill proficiency level is likely to upgrade from Stardust Level to the next level: Starlight Level.

Looking at the page before him, Xu Ran patted Ziyun's head.

"Ziyun, use Electric Spark!"

"Meow~"

Ziyun landed lightly from Xu Ran's arms, brewed for a while, and then let out a breath towards the vacant ground at the side.

A pale purple energy ball flew out of its mouth, inside which you could see purple electricity wandering.

"Zzzt——"

Accompanied by the sound of the electric arc piercing the air, the energy ball exploded after flying a distance. Purple electric arcs quickly move around, attacking an area roughly the size of a sphere with a diameter of one meter.

It looks pretty powerful!

Xu Ran stroked his chin, "Ziyun, can you make it explode over a larger area?"

Ziyun spit out another light ball, trying to control its explosion range.

However, compared to just now, there seems to be no difference.

"Meow~" (I can't...)

It shook its head slightly.

"That's okay, try again to reduce the explosion range."

This time it seems possible.

And after reducing the range, the purple arcs in the air became more dense, thus increasing the skill's power.

"Meow!" (Hooray!)

Ziyun also seemed very happy to be able to do what the Beast Master said.

"Now, try to make it explode as far as possible."

The result of this test showed that the farthest explosion distance of Electric Spark was five meters.

Xu Ran nodded, he now had a full understanding of this skill.

And there's another piece of good news.

The proficiency progress of Electric Spark had become (1/100).

"Let's try Electric Arc and Bite!"

Suddenly, the tests were done.

Contrary to what Xu Ran imagined, Electric Arc is not an attacking skill, but a skill that speeds up Ziyun's movement.

When using this skill, Ziyun leaves noticeable afterimages and electric light when running at full speed. Xu Ran had hard time catching up with his naked eye.

On the other hand, Bite is a melee skill. When used, Ziyun's fangs become sharper and their biting force greatly increases, enough to easily crush the bones of ordinary creatures.

With testing, the proficiency progress of the two skills also became (1/100).

After testing the existing skills, Xu Ran rubbed his hands excitedly.

It's time to try teaching skills!
