The new feature of the Skill Index undoubtedly gave Shi Yu a surprise.

But before the surprise could last long, Shi Yu sighed.

Because…

[Skill]: Concealed Brilliance

[Status]: Not teachable, insufficient energy required for teaching

"Damn it." Shi Yu was stunned.

Super-level skills still can't be taught.

However, the information in the [Status] column has changed!

Logically, if there were no target, it should display 'No teaching target available'.

It would only display 'Not teachable' when trying to teach a pet.

But this time, it directly showed 'Not teachable'.

And the reason was clearly stated.

"After the upgrade, the index not only updated one feature."

"It's also more user-friendly, damn it."

This made Shi Yu once again confirm that the inability to teach super-level skills was due to his physical fitness.

"Absurd..."

Staring at Concealed Brilliance, Plant Control, and Heavenly Frost Chill for a long time, Shi Yu shook his head.

His current physique should be comparable to a top-tier master who hasn't focused on physical training.

If he trained to the limit, it might be comparable to a legendary Beast Tamer who hasn't focused on training.

Even so, it's still not enough?

"Is there a possibility that my physique is enough, but the index itself doesn't have enough energy and needs to be upgraded again like last time to teach super-level skills?"

Shi Yu speculated, or perhaps both he and the index were useless, with neither having enough energy.

"In that case..." Shi Yu fell into deep thought.

"I feel like before I can teach super-level skills, I can even max out all the low-level, mid-level, and high-level skills of the four pets."

It would take at least a year or so for him to break through again.

In a year's time, even if he slacked off, the pets' skills should be maxed out.

"Sigh..."

"Baby Ginseng, it's time to come back."

After thinking for a while, Shi Yu sent a telepathic message in the distant direction.

Life is hard, what can relieve the sorrow?

Only by adding points to numb myself.

"Before setting off, let's add Chi Tong's Possession skill to the Proficient level and see the training effect."

Shi Yu then looked at Little Chi Tong, who was shedding tears at the melting ice.

Due to his own breakthrough… low-level ice crystals couldn't withstand its temperature anymore…

"Mee!!!" Fire is unhappy! Why is there still a melting reaction!

At the same time.

Although separated by a great distance, Shi Yu's thoughts still reached Baby Ginseng.

This was an ability that Beast Tamers with other talents couldn't possess.

Generally, when Beast Tamers with ordinary talents let their pets roam freely, if the two were far apart, the Beast Tamer would hardly be able to sense the pet's condition unless the pet lost consciousness, was near death, died, or broke through.

However, for Beast Tamers with the Telepathy talent, the Telepathy talent could strengthen the mental connection between contracts, making the senses of both parties stronger.

In other words, in the future, when Shi Yu reached the Legendary level, even if the pet was separated from him by a country, they might be able to sense each other's condition. But if it were another Beast Tamer with a different talent, even if there was a contract, it would be like being disconnected.

Around this characteristic, many pets of ancient Beast Tamers with the Telepathy talent were cultivated into assassins for gathering intelligence. Even if they died in the process, they could still transmit important information to their Beast Tamer who was far away.

In the botanical garden, after receiving Shi Yu's message, Baby Ginseng tidied up the anti-bug plants in its bag, which were actually spiritual plants that restrained insect types, and turned around domineeringly.

Going home!

That night, Shi Yu, Eleven, Buggy, Baby Ginseng, and Little Chi Tong had a good meal together to celebrate Shi Yu's breakthrough and Little Chi Tong's official entry into the team.

That night, Buggy was very excited because they could go to Divine Capital tomorrow.

Little Chi Tong was also very excited because it was the first time it had been exposed to adding points!

Shi Yu spent some effort to add three points to its "Possession" skill, bringing it to the Proficient level.

There wasn't much change, except that the spirit body could be more compatible with the possessed object and exert stronger power.

However, what Shi Yu didn't expect was that Little Chi Tong actually liked the feeling of being added points, finding it as comfortable as sleeping on ice.

"Mee~" Little Chi Tong kept flying around Shi Yu, constantly sticking close, asking why he didn't continue.

Hoping to use the tactic of acting cute to continue being added points by Shi Yu.

As expected, for pets, being added points was like eating food to absorb nutrients, captivating them.

No pet could escape the temptation of adding points, even high-level Overlord races.

"That's all." Shi Yu said ruthlessly, just trying out the training effect. He had to get up early tomorrow, so he couldn't continue.

Little Chi Tong shed tears, all gone?

"Yeah, all gone." Shi Yu was very sleepy and looked worried.

He should have waited before adding points to Little Chi Tong.

The first time was indeed more novel, unlike Eleven, Buggy, and Baby Ginseng, who could control themselves at this time.

Chi Tong hesitated, then hesitated again.

"...You also want to see where my limit is?" Shi Yu interrupted the spell.

"Next time for sure!" After saying that, he fell asleep.

Little Chi Tong pondered, hmph…

…

Early the next morning.

Ancient Capital City First Airport.

Shi Yu, wearing a black and red combat suit, arrived here.

In his pocket, there was also a red cloak. Because it was too hot, Shi Yu didn't wear it.

This was a 'Flame Demon Cloak' he had specially bought, a fire-type level six equipment, comparable to a top-tier monarch, costing him fifteen million.

The reason for buying this was because this kind of equipment could effectively enhance the Beast Tamer's resistance to fire. If he wore this to withstand the possession of the little Sword Spirit, it could alleviate some of the burden on Shi Yu himself.

Even if it wasn't a fire-type attack, the 'Flame Demon Cloak' could provide a good protective effect.

A level six 'Flame Demon Cloak' set, plus a level seven ice and mental dual-type resource, the 'Ice Dragon Whisker', were Shi Yu's more valuable resources at present.

Of course, the 'Eleventh Bureau Exclusive Index', 'Relic Ring', and 'Relic Crystal' were also very precious resources, even more expensive, but their value didn't have a good level evaluation standard.

[The flight to Divine Capital is about to take off…]

In the crowd, Shi Yu yawned and boarded a high-level commander-race, commander-level plane life.

Because of the Butterfly Transformation Conference, there seemed to be many people going to Divine Capital recently.

Many students in Ancient Capital University were skipping classes to watch the excitement.

There were also some Beast Tamers who had contracted Green Silkworms and had special evolution plans who planned to participate in the Butterfly Transformation Conference. Shi Yu wasn't the only one with this plan.

"Huh?"

On the plane, Shi Yu had just found his seat and looked at the guy next to him in surprise.

In the seat next to him, a student wearing cloth clothes also widened his eyes and looked at Shi Yu.

"Little Gu Master, what a coincidence." Shi Yu said.

"You're the Little Gu Master, please call me Gu Master or Insect Master, Gu Insect Master is also fine!" Miao Dongdong retorted.

"Are you also going to Divine Capital?" Then, he asked.

This person was none other than the Little Gu Master who had contracted the Shadow Gu and Parasitic Gu and suffered at the hands of Shi Yu and Buggy in the professional assessment, now a student in the Battle Department of Ancient Capital University.

"Of course, this is a flight to Divine Capital, can't just drop me off halfway, right?" Shi Yu smiled slightly.

Miao Dongdong was silent for a moment and said, "You're not going to participate in that Butterfly Transformation Conference, are you?"

"I haven't seen your Green Silkworm in a long time. Has it... pupated?"

"Yeah." Shi Yu nodded and said, "Are you too?"

Miao Dongdong felt a headache. Shi Yu's Nine Li War Beast, Baby Ginseng, and Mu Huiyin's Grand General Spirit were already outrageous enough. Once that Green Silkworm completed its evolution, he estimated that it could reach the monarch race. Wouldn't Shi Yu's combat power be even more outrageous then?

Transcendent-grade Silk Thread!

How could there be such a monstrous Beast Tamer!

"Sigh." Sighing, Miao Dongdong said:

"I broke through and contracted a Green Silkworm sent by my family. I plan to use my family's method to evolve it into a 'Golden Wing Gu'." He told Shi Yu the purpose of his trip.

Golden Wing Gu, a high-level commander race, a gold and insect dual-type pet similar to a bee.

Shi Yu smiled, "More Gu insects again. When everyone else is transforming into butterflies, wouldn't it be embarrassing if a Gu bee crawled out of your cocoon?"

"Which evolution route is your Green Silkworm on?" Miao Dongdong curled his lips and asked.

The Butterfly Transformation Conference was just a general term. Not everyone was going to transform into a butterfly.

"This, would you believe me if I said I don't know?" Shi Yu said.

Miao Dongdong: ???

"You don't know either?"

"What do you mean?"

Shi Yu smiled, "It means what it means. I didn't use any of the currently known evolution plans for it. I plan to gamble."

"Self-created evolution plan?"

Miao Dongdong's eyes widened. Damn, how dare you.

Using such a Green Silkworm with terrifying potential and talent as a gambler?

Wouldn't it hurt if you messed up??!!

Regardless of whether Shi Yu felt heartache or not, Miao Dongdong felt heartache at the thought of that perverted Green Silkworm having the risk of failing its evolution.

A waste of natural resources.

"Yes."

Shi Yu coughed and said, "In the end, I'm a little panicked myself. I don't know what Buggy will evolve into."

He had asked Buggy, but Buggy itself didn't have a clue, which was very uncomfortable.

"So, that's why I came to worship the Butterfly God, hoping its blessing can increase the success rate."

Shi Yu silently said in his heart, increasing the success rate of Buggy evolving into the overlord race in one go.

Two race skills that were close to the Dao, a mysterious dragon pearl, a cave tree root, a dream fruit, and a large amount of max-level nutrient fruits that increased evolution potential. Adding all of these up, their value exceeded Eleven's evolution foundation. Shi Yu felt that not evolving into the overlord race was no different from evolution failure.

Hopefully everything goes smoothly…

After all, he didn't have the evolution talent of the big boss Lin Feng, who could make a Green Silkworm evolve five times. After Buggy's evolution this time, who knew when it would usher in the third stage of evolution again. It was naturally best to do it in one step now.

"Then I wish you success." Miao Dongdong muttered.

…

"Divine Capital, one of the birthplaces of the Dong Huang civilization, with mountains and hills intertwined, complex terrain, and many mountain ranges around it. Many Guardian Gods reside here, creating a strong mythological atmosphere…"

On the plane, the tourists listened to the broadcast introducing their destination, dozing off.

Because almost every tourist who planned to go to Divine Capital knew this information.

Currently, Divine Capital housed the most Guardian Gods sleeping in the Dong Huang land. This was actually related to the evolution big boss Lin Feng. He was from Divine Capital, and the Guardian Gods he cultivated, including the Butterfly God, naturally resided in Divine Capital.

"Almost there."

The plane passed through layers of clouds, and the journey was uneventful. Miao Dongdong took off his eye mask and looked out the window.

Shi Yu was seizing every opportunity to meditate, striving to break through to the Master level as soon as possible.

Only by becoming a Master could he have the ability to protect himself in various dangerous places in the country. After all, there were almost no wild hostile overlord-level creatures in the country. Monarch-level ferocious beasts were the biggest bosses.

As for wanting to explore abroad, he would have to start at the Legend level.

"Arrived?" Shi Yu slowly opened his eyes.

At this time, Miao Dongdong said next to him, "By the way, have you booked a hotel? My brother, who studies at Divine Capital University, helped me book a hotel on their campus. Otherwise, I'll have him book one for you too?"

"Then, we can also visit Divine Capital University."

Shi Yu said, "Thanks, but no need. I still have some things to deal with next. Let's meet again at the Butterfly Transformation Conference in three days."

"Oh…" Miao Dongdong was stunned and nodded.

…

Divine Capital City First Airport.

After the plane landed, Shi Yu put on his mask again and left directly.

If he had time, he might have gone to Divine Capital University with Miao Dongdong to kick… visit. However, besides the Butterfly Transformation Conference, Shi Yu could also complete another matter this time he came to Divine Capital. For accommodation, the relic space would do.

His other goal was a high-level wood-type skill: Mutant Body.

In Divine Capital, there was a Mutant Tree!

This was the evolution opportunity for Baby Ginseng.

Although the Mutant Tree was ancient and adaptable, it wasn't a native species of Dong Huang, but a special pet of the neighboring Seven Islands, the kind that was all over the street. It had become all kinds of mutants and was no longer limited to the form of trees.

However, in Dong Huang, there weren't many of them. About a hundred years ago, the evolution talent big boss Lin Feng introduced a batch of pets from the Seven Islands to study various evolution forms. In order not to let it mutate into strange things and become a dangerous invasive species, its number had always been controlled within a certain range, controlled in specific areas.

This should be a species introduced during the same period as the Gem Cat and Slime.

There were no Mutant Trees in Ancient Capital. However, among a bunch of materials Shi Yu investigated in Divine Capital, there happened to be an organization that owned Mutant Trees.

After leaving the airport, Shi Yu took a random taxi and came near the Mechanical Tree Club.

The so-called club was generally a place where Beast Tamers supported by various consortia operated.

In Dong Huang, the power of the top five consortia couldn't be underestimated. They had immense financial power, monopolized most of the resources, and had the ability to cultivate Legend-level forces. The heads of the five consortia were almost all top powerhouses in the country. Individual consortia even had contact with Legend Beast Tamers.

Any one of them had a deeper foundation than a single top university and had a system for cultivating Beast Tamers similar to that of schools and military groups, which was the various clubs.

By signing promising Beast Tamers, they allowed them to compete internally, through competitions, exploring various dangerous places, using an internal "Gu" style to allocate resources.

The school system, club system, and military system were generally the normal promotion paths for ordinary Beast Tamers. In addition, a small number of Beast Tamers with overly heaven-defying qualifications would enter some secret departments in advance and be cultivated. For example, Shi Yu was this type of person. Compared to the dispensable school system, his Eleventh Bureau identity was more important.

"This is it, right?" Shi Yu looked at the magnificent building in front of him, planning to go in and see the situation first.

Opening the door, Shi Yu had just entered when he saw a Mutant Tree fully armed standing in the center of the hall.

Shi Yu was slightly silent.

[Name]: Mutant Tree (Mutation Type: Mechanical Tree)

[Attribute]: Wood, Mechanical (Mutation)

Although he had obtained some information, Shi Yu still felt it was magical at this time.

The Mutant Body skill was one of the few skills that could transform a normal life form into a mechanical type.

However, he only had a Baby Ginseng, so forget it. Sub-attributes should still choose earth or light. A mechanical Baby Ginseng sounded unreliable. It would be better to contract a nuclear bomb baby directly.
