In the blink of an eye, three days had passed since the mutation of the Martial Emperor's Ruins and Shi Yu's entrapment within.

During these three days, the outside world still couldn't establish any contact with the Martial Emperor's Ruins.

Under such circumstances, the Martial Arts Tournament was definitely unable to proceed smoothly.

"What a calamity."

"I'm so foolish, really."

Principal Feng's head was about to explode, afflicted with the same ailment as Bai Xi.

Beside him, Legendary Bai smiled bitterly.

Mmp!

You archaeologists should have been mentally prepared from the moment you entered this profession.

Exploring relic spaces is the most dangerous thing; anything could happen.

"Don't worry. Since that totem teleported us out, it shouldn't have any malicious intent. Now, we just need to wait. There's no other particularly good method besides that."

"Alas." Principal Feng nodded.

The news about the Martial Emperor's Ruins had to be suppressed to avoid causing too much panic.

At the time, there were numerous Beast Tamers in the Martial Emperor's Ruins, and many didn't know that Shi Yu hadn't come out. So, after a while, only a few people started to worry about Shi Yu.

For example, Bai Xi, who had invited Shi Yu to participate in the Martial Arts Tournament, was filled with regret. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have invited Shi Yu no matter what.

In addition, at Lu Qingyi's invitation, a group of Bureau Eleven members put aside their work and collectively arrived in Wuling City to study the Martial Emperor's Ruins and try to find other ways to enter.

Within a short half-month, almost all members of Bureau Eleven had visited Wuling City.

Various spatial experts were also invited by Bureau Eleven to come here.

Unfortunately, relic spaces are incredibly profound. Without an item that controls the entire relic, even Legendary Beast Tamers can't confirm its existence, and even legends like Shi Di and Kong Di wouldn't dare to say they could decipher all relics.

Bingyuan City, Pingcheng.

Because he had agreed with Shi Yu to help the Iron-eating Beast improve its Hardening level during the vacation, Lin Xiuzhu wanted to contact Shi Yu but found that she couldn't reach him no matter what.

"What's wrong?" Lin Hongnian asked, seeing that his daughter hadn't gone to Gudu yet.

"Gudu University said... Shi Yu has important relic exploration work and may not be able to contact the outside world for some time." Lin Xiuzhu looked bewildered.

She felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

The mutation of the Martial Emperor's Ruins turned Wuling City into a complete mess.

Usually, the Beast Taming Corps of Wuling City would train using the Martial Emperor's Ruins, but now that this happened, the management of Wuling City was in a huge headache.

The most terrifying thing was... this situation lasted for more than two months, and the Martial Emperor's Ruins still showed no sign of activity.

Shi Yu also remained missing.

Seventy-two days later, in Wuling City, Lu Qingyi, who had been in Wuling City the longest within Bureau Eleven, almost never stopping her research on the Martial Emperor's Ruins, took a breath, looking a little dazed.

What exactly happened inside?

Why has there been no movement for two whole months?

So, is there any danger inside...

...

At the same time, inside the Martial Emperor's Ruins.

The most troubled person at this time was Shi Yu.

For more than two months, the monotony had made his scalp crawl.

Since there was no feasible way to get out, Shi Yu could only wait.

Who knew that after waiting for more than two months, there was still no result.

"What a calamity."

"Didn't they say it would die in a few days? It's been two months already."

"Don't tell me, a turtle's day is a human's year."

Inside his relic space, Shi Yu finished his daily complaint and continued to meditate with his eyes closed.

In the past two months, because there was nothing else to distract him, his cultivation efficiency was particularly fast.

After all, besides skill points and meditation, he didn't have the mood to do anything else.

With the help of the level-six spatial cultivation resource, Void Crystal Stone, sent by Bureau Three, he was almost reaching the Master level.

Breaking through was estimated to be just a matter of time.

In addition, the changes in Eleven, Chong Chong, Can Bao Bao, and Chi Tong were also enormous.

How should I put it...

Except for the super-level skills that couldn't have points added, all the low-level, mid-level, and high-level skills that the four of them could learn and have points added had been maxed out by Shi Yu during this time.

For example, the common teaching skills High-Speed Healing, Super Vision, Absolute Sleep, Doubling, and Intimidation had all been maxed out by Shi Yu for each pet.

Even Can Bao Bao had learned Intimidation to the level of perfection, which shows how painful Shi Yu had been during this time.

In addition, their own racial skills naturally hadn't been neglected.

Eleven's Energy Storage Lightning and Impregnable Fortress, Chong Chong's Spatial Pocket and Dream Stealing, and Chi Tong's Light Flame Sword and Soul Cleave had all been raised to the maximum level, one big level higher than the perfect-level teaching skills, all at the level of skill transcending technique.

Now, at the Commander level, Eleven possessed nearly 200,000 energy points, far ahead in terms of energy value.

Chi Tong, with 180,000 energy points, was close behind. Although it was known as a quasi-mythical race, that was because Spirit Release made it easier to improve proficiency and had greater potential. In terms of overall attributes at the same level, it really couldn't compare to Eleven, which had devoured a pile of high-level resources.

As for Chong Chong, it was a bit tragic. Although its energy value of just over 170,000 wasn't low, the gap was still a bit obvious compared to the other two monsters. After all, it was an insect-type creature, and its energy value wasn't advantageous.

After using Illusion Domain and Illusion Dragon, its energy quality would increase, but the problem was that Eleven also had Concealed Edge, and Chi Tong also had Possession, which could improve their own energy quality.

Because of this, Shi Yu originally wanted to hold a Shi Yu Tournament in the Martial Emperor's Ruins to relieve boredom, but Chong Chong and Can Bao Bao directly stopped him.

No, no, absolutely not!

Chong Chong, who originally wanted to participate in the Shi Yu Tournament the most, suddenly panicked a little.

It felt that it still needed to work harder...

And Can Bao Bao was the most eager to cry. It wanted to evolve, wanted to evolve, but the Moonlight Gem was with the Gem Cat. Without the Moonlight Gem and the Time Secret Realm, although it wanted to evolve, it had to hold back.

This also led to its energy value currently ranking at the bottom of the team.

As a Can Bao Bao with energy value as its racial advantage, an energy value of just over 110,000 wasn't low, but compared to the other three, it was indeed not high.

Because Can Bao Bao strongly requested that a fair team competition be held after it evolved, Shi Yu had to postpone the team competition time again.

The main reason was that he himself wasn't confident in defeating Eleven...

A week later.

As cracks appeared in the Void Crystal Stone in Shi Yu's hand, his aura began to rise steadily.

With the use of ultra-rare spatial cultivation resources worth hundreds of millions, and with the help of the relic meditation method and physical advantages, he only used more than two months to raise his Beast Taming level to Level Five.

Shi Yu looked inward and found that the barrier of his Beast Taming Space had completely turned blue after the level increase!!

This meant that from today onwards, he, Shi Yu, was a Master-level Beast Tamer.

Not only could the contracted pets reach the Ruler level, but he also gained a fifth contract slot.

The moment Shi Yu broke through, Eleven, Chong Chong, Can Bao Bao, and Chi Tong in various places of the relic space sensed it and instantly felt that their bottleneck seemed to have been touched.

At this moment, all of Shi Yu's pets felt the opportunity to break through to the Ruler level.

"Awoo oooo oooo!!!"

"Uwu uwu~~"

"Yiya iya."

"Mimi mimi!!"

In the blink of an eye, the four little guys came to Shi Yu's side from different places.

The small Eleven, about 0.3 meters tall, excitedly looked up at Shi Yu.

Now, under the special effect of Perfect Shrink, even if it remained shrunk, its strength wouldn't decrease much compared to its normal state.

At the same time, it could also have the advantage of rapid physical recovery in the shrunk state. Of course, to unleash stronger power, it still had to rely on Gigantification.

Chong Chong was the same, landing on Shi Yu in a shrunk form smaller than the palm of his hand. Can Bao Bao and Chi Tong also swayed and flew over.

"Broke through." Shi Yu looked at them and smiled slightly.

"What do you guys feel?"

"Ying!!"

Led by Eleven, all four pets indicated that they could break through soon!

"Sure enough, it's almost a natural process."

Shi Yu was very excited.

He would soon have four Ruler-level pets. In this way, he could be considered one of the top Master-level Beast Tamers.

After all, Master Lin Hongnian only had two Ruler-level pets.

And he had four, and their racial levels were not low. It was estimated that few Masters could achieve this.

Even against those Enhancement-type Beast Tamers who could enhance their pets with hundreds of thousands or millions of energy points, Shi Yu was not afraid, relying on the racial advantages of Eleven and the others.

Now, Shi Yu finally knew why people loved to contract pets with high racial levels. As long as the timing was right, breaking through was basically a natural process, without any bottlenecks.

It was normal to think so. After all, Eleven and the others had maxed out all of their racial skills except for the super-level racial skills. Breaking through to the Ruler level was estimated to be as simple as drinking water. The foundation was too good.

However, breaking through to the Overlord level was estimated to be a bit difficult.

According to Shi Yu's understanding, there were two ways to break through to the Overlord level. One was to rely on legendary resources, that is, level-nine resources, to enhance their strength after the basics were met.

The other was to train all of their racial skills, including the super-level racial skills, to a perfect level of proficiency or higher. In this way, they could break through to the Overlord level naturally under the guidance of the racial skills.

After breaking through in this way, their strength would be stronger than breaking through with resources.

Thinking of this, Shi Yu suddenly reacted and quickly opened the Skill Index.

After this breakthrough, his physique had improved again, so could he add points to super-level skills now??

Shi Yu quickly flipped through the Skill Index. He found that the Skill Index hadn't changed in other places, but the Skill Index really showed a difference in the teaching of super-level skills.

[Skill]: Plant Control

[State]: Teachable

Shi Yu was currently looking at Can Bao Bao.

Seeing the word "Teachable," Shi Yu was instantly ecstatic.

The happiness of a Beast Tamer is so simple and unadorned.

But the next moment, his heart fell to the bottom again.

Because under [State], there were a few more columns.

[Teaching Success Rate]: Extremely Low

[Teaching Risk]: Extremely High

[Note]: Teaching super-level skills will not only consume the Beast Tamer's physical strength and energy but also consume the Beast Tamer's life force, which is extremely dangerous.

[Note]: To absorb the experience of super-level skills, the pet must have a firm will and a strong heart. If the conditions are not met, there is a risk of becoming a slave to power and losing reason, leading to teaching failure!

"Damn it." Shi Yu glanced at Chi Tong again.

[Skill]: Intersecting Sword

[State]: Teachable

[Teaching Success Rate]: Extremely Low

Looking at Chong Chong.

[Skill]: Illusion Domain

[State]: Teachable

[Teaching Success Rate]: Extremely Low

Finally, he looked at Eleven.

[Skill]: Concealed Edge

[State]: Teachable

[Teaching Success Rate]: Low

In an instant, Shi Yu's face turned to the extreme again.

Except for Eleven, the success rate of adding points to super-level skills for the other three guys was actually extremely low???

"Ying?" "Uwu?" "Iya?" "Mimi?"

The four little guys didn't understand why Shi Yu's expression suddenly changed so much.

They broke through, shouldn't he be happy?

"Iya!!!" Can Bao Bao asked Shi Yu if he wanted a nutritional fruit?

"I'm not in the mood to eat!" Shi Yu stood up directly, deliberately saying with displeasure: "Except for Eleven, Chong Chong, Can Bao Bao, Chi Tong, you guys should work harder!"

All pets: ??????

Shi Yu's mood was completely up and down.

Even if he saw that teaching super-level skills would consume his life force, he didn't take it seriously. Can Bao Bao's nutritional fruit wasn't without the effect of replenishing life energy. At worst, he would replenish more and be weak for a few more days.

However, learning super-level skills actually began to have requirements for pets, which Shi Yu didn't expect.

Moreover, all four of his pets didn't meet the requirements, which made Shi Yu feel a sense of dereliction of duty.

Firm will, strong heart... Although he didn't know what conditions pets needed to meet to add points to super-level skills, it was clear that they were far from enough.

Even Eleven didn't meet the requirements, which made Shi Yu hard to believe.

In this way, wouldn't adding points in the future be like drawing cards, with only a 10% chance of getting a good result after teaching 10 times???

Who could stand this!! It would cost his life!!

And to change this situation, the best way was to improve the pet's will and let them have a strong heart. Calming down, Shi Yu suddenly realized that the limitations of super-level skills weren't entirely bad.

Even though Eleven, Chong Chong, and Can Bao Bao had been working hard relatively, they had still been too smooth along the way, growing at an outrageous speed.

In this way, there was almost no training of the mind.

So-called strong people should have strong minds. Otherwise, having only power without a mind to support that power would be like Meteorite Hound five thousand years ago, becoming a slave to power and falling into a chaotic state, destroying everything without reason.

Shi Yu definitely didn't want to see this happen.

So after an analysis, Shi Yu sighed... From the current situation, adding points to super-level skills was still out of the question.

"When will the teaching success rate become medium... no, become high, then I'll teach super-level skills."

"From the current situation, even Eleven probably needs to be tempered for a long time."

Shi Yu knew Eleven and the others very well. Although Eleven was hardworking and had a strong will that could do any arduous training, it basically didn't have the fearless heart to challenge the strong.

Compared to those sages who faced totems without fear of life and death in order to protect their original intentions, Eleven and its Beast Tamer only knew how to bully the weak and fear the strong, liked to participate in baby competitions, and were obviously much worse. Eleven still needed to be tempered.

As for Chong Chong and Can Bao Bao, they were even worse than Eleven.

And little Chi Tong, if it was its predecessor, General Mu Huiyin, it would definitely have a will and heart that could be considered extremely powerful even in human history, but little Chi Tong was completely a newborn, equivalent to a child who had just been born. Obviously, these qualities hadn't been inherited and needed to be retrained.

"Ying?" "Uwu?" "Iya?" "Mimi?"

The four pets looked at Shi Yu expectantly, wondering what he meant.

"In short, don't rush to break through. Next, I will formulate a new special training program for you. Let's focus on this training first."

"Ying..." "Uwu..." "Iya..." "Mimi..." The four guys were a little uneasy, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

Even Eleven, who wasn't afraid of training, suddenly felt a chill down its spine looking at Shi Yu's eyes, feeling that Shi Yu had some bad intentions.

[After all, if they become too strong after breaking through, they won't be able to find a suitable training environment...] Shi Yu muttered in his heart.

"Alright, let's go out and see the situation of the ruins today."

...

A moment later, Shi Yu brought the four little guys to the nine pillars.

Sensing the situation here, Shi Yu sighed again.

Still not working!

Wouldn't it really make him break through to the Legendary level before he could get out?

This tm... Even though the food resources here are quite abundant, he still misses the next water-type pet in Dragon Palace City, and he also misses Can Bao Bao's evolution...

Just as Shi Yu began to feel depressed, suddenly, the spatial ripples around the nine pillars changed slightly.

Buzz~

Standing in the teleportation area, Shi Yu suddenly felt the connection between the Martial Emperor's Ruins and the outside world at this moment.

At this moment, his depression was instantly swept away.

Damn it, he could finally get out!! This was a double whammy!!
