My beast can't be a demon.

"Woo~"

The exhausted Xiao Xi lay weakly on the table, looking like she had been beaten to death.

Zhou Lu helplessly patted Hua Huo beside him: "Teacher Xiao Xi is also kind-hearted, you can't do this."

Hua Huo stubbornly raised Xin Ya: She stole my job!

After learning how to entwine with vines and being able to do some work within her ability with vines, Xiao Cao Cao has always regarded helping Zhou Lu clean up as her sacred job.

When she saw Xiao Xi stole her job, the petty-minded Hua Huo immediately felt the crisis, which led to such a stressful performance.

"I'm sorry, Teacher Xiaoxi." Zhou Lu finally calmed down Hua Huo and apologized to Xiaoxi again, "Hua Huo..."

"The initial spirit pet is like this." Xiaoxi climbed up with great effort, sat there rubbing his head and said, "Just like the first child, it is normal to have a possessive mentality towards the owner. But your spirit pet is like this, you have to do a good job of psychological work on it when you want to contract a second spirit pet after upgrading."

"Don't think about it so far."

"That's not it." Xiaoxi said seriously, "This is something you must consider. The cooperation between spirit pets is one of the skills that a beastmaster must master, and you must adjust the conflicts between them."

"You can't travel through all the secret realms with only one spirit pet. When Hua Huo is promoted to the second level, you will also be promoted with him. At that time, you must consider the second pet."

As he said, Xiaoxi glanced at Hua Huo: "With the growth rate of Hua Huo, you will soon face this choice, and you must consider the choice of the second pet in advance."

There is nothing wrong with Xiaoxi's words.

The level of the beastmaster grows with the initial pet, and each time you advance, you will get a beast card slot.

Of course, this does not mean that the beastmaster can only contract five pets at most, but only five pets can be put into the beast card and carried with you.

In the early days of the beastmaster era, many beastmasters adopted the sea of ​​beasts tactics, controlling a large number of pets to fight.

But in modern times, the number of contracts of most beastmasters will really increase with the number of beast card slots.

Because as the main world restores peace, beastmasters rarely fight in the main world, and too many pets that cannot be put into the beast card will only become a burden to the beastmaster.

Moreover, the secret realm can only carry the pets on the beast card, so it is useless to contract more pets.

The changes of the times have gradually changed the concept of beastmasters from the sea of ​​beasts tactics to the direction of cultivating elite pets.

This is just like the human concept of fertility gradually changing from more births and more raising to eugenics.

"Second pet..." Zhou Lu fell into thought.

Hua Huo slapped Zhou Lu's wrist angrily: Don't think!

Well, there's no sign of the second level yet, and Hua Huo is already jealous.

Zhou Lu smiled and rubbed Hua Huo's leaves: "Let's talk about this issue after we reach the second level. The most important thing at the moment is to improve your own strength first."

Hua Huo immediately raised the tender leaves and said with full momentum: I will work hard to become stronger!

As long as it works hard to become stronger and becomes an indispensable existence for the master, it doesn't have to worry about other spiritual pets taking away the master's love!

After figuring this out, Hua Huo immediately put the problem of the second pet that will appear in the future behind his mind, and began to crawl around in the room, crawling to the door and rolling up the broom with a broom.

Xiao Xi saw this scene: "I have cleaned the room."

Hua Huo dumped the garbage in the trash can onto the ground: Now it's dirty again!

"..."

Xiao Xi looked at Hua Huo happily cleaning the room speechlessly.

"I said, did you learn any strange skills in the Linxi Secret Realm?" Xiao Xi retracted her gaze and looked at Zhou Lu and asked.

"What's wrong?"

"I just felt it. Fireworks is going to put the branch into my body." Xiao Xi rolled her eyes and said, "Ordinary branches can't be so small."

"If I tell you, can you give me fairy coins?"

Xiao Xi glanced at Zhou Lu: "If you allow others to buy this information with fairy coins, I can give it to you."

"Then forget it."

"I can guess it even if you don't say it. There are not many creatures in Linxi Secret Realm that can make the branch show this form..." Xiao Xi thought for a while, "Ghost Face Nightmare Butterfly? [Absorb] can really absorb racial skills."

"Teacher Xiao Xi is worthy of being a general fairy." Zhou Lu turned on the computer and browsed the forum. He was not surprised that Xiao Xi could guess this step.

Xiao Xi flew to Zhou Lu, sat on his shoulder, and looked at the content he was browsing on his computer: "Are you going to the Shanchuan Secret Realm? Are you so anxious to practice the skill [Body Feeding]?"

"Aren't credits used for this?"

"Most people don't schedule their schedules so tightly. Didn't you just come back from the Linxi Secret Realm?" Xiao Xi shook her feet, and her calves kept hitting Zhou Lu's collarbone.

"If you want to rest, you can also rest in the secret realm." Zhou Lu looked up the relevant information about the Shanchuan Secret Realm.

Xiao Xi didn't say anything else, just sat quietly on Zhou Lu's shoulder, and her calves hit Zhou Lu's collarbone rhythmically.

"So." After a little silence, she spoke again, "Why are you working so hard?"

"To become stronger, what else can it be?"

"Why do you become stronger?"

"..." Zhou Lu couldn't answer for a while, he couldn't say it was because of the system.

"Those beastmasters who are committed to becoming professional players do work hard at this stage. But their purpose of becoming stronger is to join the school team and use it as a springboard to join the professional club." Xiao Xi said, "But you are almost working non-stop. You don't even go to see the school team's recruitment. It doesn't look like you want to join the school team, so I don't understand why you are working so hard."

"Not everyone wants to become a professional player." Zhou Lu found a suitable cliff for training on the website.

"Do you want to join the company's exploration team? Or the pioneer army?" Xiao Xi reported the career directions of most combat beastmasters one by one.

"What do you want to ask, Teacher Xiao Xi?" Zhou Lu said with a smile, "This doesn't seem like a question that a general fairy would ask to get to the bottom of."

Xiao Xi was silent again, and after a long time, he slowly spoke: "Then I'll be frank. Do you still care about your father's death?"

Zhou Lu didn't expect Xiao Xi to say this suddenly, and didn't know how to answer this question for a while, but he still keenly caught the tone of Xiao Xi's words: "Do you know the truth about my father's death?"

"I don't know." Xiao Xi said bluntly, "But I should be able to guess something."

"Then can your guess be purchased with fairy coins?"

"Three thousand."

"Fuck! Are you robbing?!"

Xiao Xi crossed her arms: "This guess is worth this much."

"Then forget it, I'll become stronger and then find the truth." Zhou Lu suddenly found that Xiao Xi's words gave him a very reasonable rhetoric.

If there is really something hidden in his father's death, the mastermind behind the scenes will definitely not be indifferent to his son's desperate efforts to become stronger and find the truth!

As long as there is action, there must be flaws.

At the same time, he could also hide the real reason why he wanted to become stronger under this rhetoric.

At this time, Zhou Lu stopped sliding the mouse.

His eyes fell on a post on the campus forum:

[Are the students of Xin'an Beast Taming Academy so unethical? They actually robbed openly in the secret realm! ]
