Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 796 - 346: Perfecting the First Stage of Rainbow Dragon Cultivation!_2

Su Ping licked his lips and remarked, "Don't sweat it. I’ll ensure it’s healthy and plump by then. The real question is when you’ll break into the Emperor Level. You better pick up the pace, or I might actually overtake you."

"Tch, you know nothing. By the way, aren't you going to join the professional assessment mid-year?"

It was rare for Su Anyong to express interest in Su Ping’s business, so Su Ping didn't bother holding back.

"Yeah, I hear the rewards are decent, so I figured I’d give it a shot."

"Fine then, but if you fail to stand out in Jianghai, don't you dare mention you're my son once you step outside," Su Anyong stated with a boastful tone.

Su Ping curled his lip, then replied, "Su Anyong, you’re talkative today. Did you hold all this in because we haven’t spoken in ages? Just call me if you need something. It’s expected and only right..."

Before he could finish, a dial tone cut him off. Evidently, the connection was severed.

Su Ping didn't take it to heart and sank into deep reflection. He wasn't dwelling on their chat, but rather on Old Sha’s history.

Wolf Country, Heavenly Wolf Tribe.

He truly hadn't imagined that Old Sha’s so-called Wolf King majesty had such heavy origins.

Still, it made sense. Putting the Crown Wolf Emperor aside, even Xiao Qing’s Evolution hadn't granted similar Skills. A racial ability potent enough to command Wolf Tribe Pet Beasts wasn't something one picked up easily.

Su Ping refrained from questioning Old Sha about it.

Over time, Old Sha had evolved into part of his immediate family, and poking at such matters would feel like ripping open old, festering wounds.

Maybe Old Sha was past it, but Su Ping wanted to spare him the pain.

He had always enjoyed stories of miraculous resurrections where the tides turned after a long struggle. Alas, his own talent meant that was unlikely to happen in this life—a point of genuine regret for Su Ping. Nonetheless, if he could facilitate a powerful comeback for Old Sha, Su Ping would still take immense pride in it.

Old Sha was currently at Monarch Second Rank. With the recent awakening of the Heart of the Sun, his racial potential had officially breached the Emperor First Rank limit.

But that was hardly finished!

For most, the peak of a Wanmu Wolf was an unreachable zenith. But if he intended to return in triumph to the Wolf Country and inform that Green Cliff Sky Wolf King that the 'three-year agreement' was due, he would need much more power.

Su Ping had never prioritized further Evolution for the Wanmu Wolf, but now, it felt necessary. And the most vital boost for the breed was undeniably the Heart of the Sun!

This level of evolutionary Cultivation was notoriously brutal, yet Su Ping remained confident. Once the Forest Wolf Catalog hit Level 5 and unlocked Simulation Cultivation, he could use that system perfectly to map out the Wanmu Wolf’s advancement.

With that resolve set, Su Ping cleared his mind and settled into his evening routine of meditation with the Heart of Dreams. Since the software’s official launch, Dong Muyun had spent lavishly to acquire the previous design studio, tasking them with managing updates and development for the Heart of Dreams. With Feifei navigating the internet like a natural, code wasn't required—only pure, unadulterated creativity.

The spiritual enhancement provided by the Heart of Dreams might not outperform standard meditation if the user were a subpar player, but Su Ping was the architect himself. With such a massive advantage, his spiritual growth could be dubbed as peak-efficiency training.

「Time trickled away.」

Over the next few days, Su Ping spent time with the Papermen in the Spirit Hall but intentionally avoided another Simulation Cultivation.

His goal was to hoard Experience Points. Plus, he sensed that repeating his old methods wouldn't yield major gains in Evolving the Paperman. Even the physical structure achieved through Paper Body Folding likely wasn't the key to the next stage.

Once his initial excitement cooled, a level-headed Su Ping re-examined the process and spotted a detail he had previously ignored.

Following its First Segment of Evolution, the Paperman had gained a Skill he had bypassed: Paper Body Compression. He had ignored it because initial tests made it seem worthless.

Truth be told, while Su Ping hadn’t focused on it, Liu Fuhai had tried it while researching the Second Stage. However, Liu Fuhai found it had zero impact on the Second Stage and opted for Elemental Strengthening instead to achieve an Advanced Elemental Evolution.

Yet, once that path reached a plateau, this neglected Skill would surely become the gateway to further Evolution.

Su Ping didn't experiment recklessly. Such an endeavor would likely consume countless Papermen as materials, and he couldn't afford to waste Origami Man Record points yet.

Fortunately, he realized another perk: reaching Level 5 in the Origami Man Record granted a sliver of Catalog Experience even when he wasn't personally watching over them. It was less than a quarter of the normal rate, but it removed a major burden from his schedule.

The benefits of a 'graduated' Catalog were immense, fueling his drive to cultivate even more catalogs. Given time, the sections of his Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas would snowball, eventually turning him into an peerless, all-encompassing Breeding Master!

Beyond that, he’d been focusing on the Heart of Water Skill for the Snow Wolves and Icefang Whitewolves. The progress was slow due to the low number of wolves that had bonded with the Skill, but he estimated they would hit the Proficient Level in a few days.

Master Su, however, had no time to focus on that now.

He had spent these days avoiding simulation just to hit his target. A few days back, after his Origami Man Record hit Level 5 and yielded one thousand Universal Experience points, Su Ping finally saw the path to the Rainbow Dragon's First Segment Cultivation.

Ray Saint had been right; the Rainbow Coral Worm’s lifespan was dreadfully short, and they were incredibly rare.

With that in mind, Su Ping hesitated no longer. The prompt from his Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas flashed in his mind:
