Chapter 36: Upgrading Skill Levels

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Upgrade!”

Under Shen Fei’s command, the fire-attribute pomegranate spirit fruit in his hand instantly became even fuller. The fruits inside also became crystal clear, like rubies.

“Hoot, hoot!”

The Flame Owl looked at the fire spirit fruit in Shen Fei’s hand with a greedy look. It was so greedy that its saliva was about to spill out. It took the initiative to stretch its head over and rub against Shen Fei, looking at Shen Fei with a fawning expression. Shen Fei was amused by the Flame Owl’s performance!

“Alright, take it and eat it.” Shen Fei extended his hand and threw half of the pomegranate spirit fruit into the Flame Owl’s mouth.

The Flame Owl devoured the fire spirit fruit with gusto, and it did not take long for it to finish the entire fruit. “Hoot, hoot!”

The spirit fruit went into its stomach. The Flame Owl’s big round eyes were still staring at Shen Fei, as if it was saying that it had not eaten enough.

‘Was it not enough?’ Shen Fei looked at the Flame Owl with some doubt. ‘It didn’t seem to have changed much from before.’

“Let’s wait a moment.” Shen Fei reached out and picked up the Flame Owl. He frowned as he carefully observed it.

After eating the entire fire spirit fruit, the Flame Owl’s appearance did not change at all.

He felt that after eating one, there didn’t seem to be any difference in appearance.

‘Why don’t I try feeding another one?’ Shen Fei tried to pick up the pomegranate spirit fruit and passed it to the Flame Owl.

“Coo!”

When the second fire spirit fruit came near it, the Flame Owl immediately opened its mouth, waiting for Shen Fei to put the fire spirit fruit inside.

Shen Fei extended his hand and placed the fire spirit fruit into the Flame Owl’s mouth. The Flame Owl excitedly swallowed the second fire spirit fruit whole. After swallowing the second fire spirit fruit, the feathers all over the Flame Owl’s body suddenly exploded like a bonfire that had gasoline added to it!

Numerous bright sparks floated around the feathers of the Flame Owl like fireflies. The phoenix aura of the Flame Owl also became more powerful!

Shen Fei’s eyes lit up. ‘As expected, the reason why there was no change just now was because the Flame Owl had not eaten enough!’

Shen Fei pointed at the withered trees in the courtyard. “Flame Owl, use fireball!”

“Coo!”

The Flame Owl’s body trembled, and it suddenly spat out a huge fireball at the tree in the distance!

BOOM!

The huge fireball hit the trunk of the old tree. Before Shen Fei could react, the old tree in the courtyard was burnt into a pile of ash!

Shen Fei patted the Flame Owl’s head in satisfaction. It looked much more powerful than the last time!

He looked at the remaining baskets of fire spirit fruits in the distance. There was still a pile of them left. ‘In that case, I’ll feed the rest of the fruits to the Flame Owl!’

Shen Fei upgraded all the fruits in the basket and placed them in front of the Flame Owl, allowing it to consume them.

When it saw the large pile of fire spirit fruits in front of it, Shen Fei was startled. The Flame Owl immediately shrunk its head and burrowed into the basket to gobble down the food. After a while, the bird disappeared into the pile. As for its skill level, it became stronger as it continued to eat!

Using the interface, Shen Fei looked at the Flame Owl’s skill level bar in satisfaction. The Flame Owl’s skill level had reached Level 28. It was only two levels away from reaching Level 30 and activating its skill mutation!

It was time for the Three-clawed Golden Dragon to level up.

“Come out, Three-clawed Golden Dragon!” Shen Fei immediately released the spirit beast.

“Roar!”

With a roar, an awe-inspiring dark-attribute Golden Dragon appeared in Shen Fei’s room.

Shen Fei looked at the Three-clawed Golden Dragon in front of him with a slightly worried expression.

‘Well… Aloy had given me a few basketfuls of spirit fruits. I think I can only feed it a few of these fruits.’

Shen Fei picked up five or six dark-attribute spirit fruits from the top of the basket. After a series of upgrades, he fed them to the Three-clawed Golden Dragon one by one.

After feeding it, the Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s skill level also increased rapidly. After a while, its skill level successfully broke through the Level 20 barrier and soon reached Level 23. By this time, all the dark-attribute spirit fruits in Shen Fei’s hands had already been eaten by the Three-clawed Golden Dragon.

The Three-clawed Golden Dragon looked at Shen Fei with its eyes wide open. It was obviously asking for more.

“There’s no more. There are only a few dark-attribute spirit fruits. I really can’t find any more.” Shen Fei could only helplessly spread his hands. Of course, he wanted to feed the Three-clawed Golden Dragon like he fed the gluttonous Flame Owl.

Although the Flame Owl had the Phoenix Bloodline, it was still a long way from becoming a true phoenix. Meanwhile, the Three-clawed Golden Dragon in front of him was a real dragon!

When he fed the spirit fruits to the Three-clawed Golden Dragon, its skill level rose much faster than the Flame Owl’s.

‘But no means no.’ Shen Fei looked at the Three-clawed Golden Dragon with some regret. If spirit beasts could eat spirit fruits with different attributes, he would have given all the remaining spirit fruits to the Dragon.

Shen Fei’s current strength was stronger than before, but it was still not enough to face those assassins.

‘The spirit beasts are so hardworking, I can’t slack off either!’

Shen Fei immediately took out another training manual and continued to flip through it.

The words on the manual immediately led Shen Fei into a long period of cultivation.

By the time Shen Fei returned to his senses and closed the manual, it was already the next morning. An entire day had passed.

However, even though he did not sleep the entire night, Shen Fei did not feel sleepy, he was in fact full of energy! This was the advantage of cultivation training!

Shen Fei’s spirit was roused. He opened the cultivation manual in his hand, wanting to continue…

But very quickly, Shen Fei noticed the time—Monday, 7:26 am.

At this time, class would begin soon!

He was shocked. He quickly put down his book, packed up a a bit, and rushed to the school. It would be better to continue cultivating after he returned!

Shen Fei got up and packed his things. He carried his bag and set off for school.

On the way to the school, Shen Fei saw three to five girls gathered together. They looked as if they were quietly discussing something.

“Hey, did you guys hear? It’s about that…”

“I heard, I heard. It’s going crazy in our school!”

“What do you think? I think it’s just two people fooling around. Otherwise, who would do this before marriage?”

‘What are they talking about?’ Shen Fei curiously gauged the female student beside him.

Usually, they would come over and greet him warmly when they saw him. But today, for some reason, they were particularly far away from him. And since just now, they had been giving him strange looks. It was as if he had done something wrong.

This caused Shen Fei to be extremely puzzled.
