Chen Mo ended his meditation and glanced at his phone. He found a bunch of messages.
"Hummingbird Express Delivery, your package has been placed in—"
"Jingwei Express Delivery, your delivery has been delivered…"
Because of the existence of spirit beasts in this world, the speed of delivery was ridiculously fast.
In the afternoon, nearly 100 packages had been delivered one after another.
"Chirp!"
Sensing that Chen Mo had woken up, the Blazing Flame Fox opened its beautiful red eyes that were like flames flowing in the night.
"Chirp?" (Is it time to eat?)
"That's right. I bought a lot of snacks. Let's just eat something for dinner!"
When Chen Mo and the Blazing Flame Fox finally managed to bring all the packages back to their rooms, they started to open the packages happily.
Most of the food Chen Mo bought online was small and easy to carry like dried fish or sweets.
After completing the challenge, these convenient foods could also be used as "buff potions" without side effects.
Fortunately, the quality of the food Chen Mo bought was not bad. Most of them met the standards.
After eating about 3/4 of the food, [Gourmet Enthusiast]'s challenge was completed.
Therefore, in the following period of time, Chen Mo tested the effect of the [Gourmet Enthusiast] attribute.
The probability of [Gourmet Enthusiast] triggering the enhancement effect was not low. It would be triggered once after eating about 10 different delicacies.
After triggering it, the Blazing Flame Fox would randomly increase attack, defense, and speed by one of the three attributes. The effect would last for one hour and the increase was similar to the [Resilience] attribute.
What was more impressive was that the three effects could be used together!
After some thought, Chen Mo ordered another 1,000 servings of honey milk candy online.
The sweet was said to be sweetened with honey from the Spirit Beast Queen Bee and the milk was from the Noise Cow. It was delicious and nutritious.
He would use it as a stimulant in the future!
It was the kind that couldn't be detected even by a urine test!
"With the defense enhanced by Gourmet Enthusiast and Resilience attributes, Xiao Jiu's defense can already compare to a spirit beast that has awakened a ninth-rank defense specialization. Coupled with the petrification potion and protective suit, it should now be able to withstand Transcendence-level lightning," Chen Mo pondered.
"However, just to be safe, I should get a defensive attribute before challenging it!"
Time flew by. Chen Mo and Xiao Jiu spent the next few days in an abnormal pattern.
Eating, sleeping, meditating, training and then completing daily challenges. They were the real Overachievers.
Finally, on the last day of the week, Chen Mo received attributes related to defense.
Fitness Expert (White)
Complete 5km weight running, 200 push-ups, 200 squat, and other fitness exercises in a day and earn the [Fitness Expert] attribute.
[Fitness Expert] Attribute Effect: Physique, strength and resistance to blows will increase slightly.
The challenge for Fitness Expert was not difficult. It was just a little time-consuming and physically taxing.
"I should probably get some exercise myself."
Coincidentally, [Overachiever] was still equipped on Xiao Jiu, so Chen Mo decided to complete this challenge himself.
After spending the entire morning, Chen Mo finally obtained the attribute.
"I don't think… I'm very tired."
Chen Mo was a little surprised after exercising. Then, he remembered that after the contract, the spirit beast would nourish the Beast Tamer and subtly nourish him.
Therefore, the physique of this body was much better than in his previous life.
"The preparations are almost complete. It's time to complete the challenge of [Lightning King]!"
Thinking of this, Chen Mo said to the Blazing Flame Fox,
"Xiao Jiu, it's time to enter the second stage of training."
"Chirp?"
The Blazing Flame Fox looked at Chen Mo expectantly.
"I call the second stage of training the electric shock training method. To put it simply, it's to be struck by lightning. No, it's to bathe in lightning and comprehend the power of lightning!"
"Chirp!?"
Chen Mo had written a guide in advance. There was a professional electric-type spirit beast training venue in Shenghai City called the Thunderbolt Gymnasium.
Not only did the place provide a lightning field, but they also rented protective clothing. It was not far from his current residence, only more than ten kilometers away.
Hence, Chen Mo took a taxi and went straight to the Thunderbolt Gymnasium with Xiao Jiu.
The gymnasium was also a place that appeared after the two worlds fused.
Some powerful Beast Tamers who had mastered it or found it difficult to advance further would take in disciples to teach them and pass on their experiences, spirit beast moves, and so on.
The Thunderbolt Gymnasium was a new gym that had been established for less than ten years. Its owner was called She Qin, and he was once an officer stationed in Shenghai City who led to the node of the Spiritual Realm. After he retired, he returned to his hometown and opened the Thunderbolt Gymnasium.
In less than 20 minutes, Chen Mo reached the Thunderbolt Gymnasium.
The architectural style of the Thunderbolt Gymnasium was similar to that of a large gymnasium. There were many facilities displayed inside, as well as an arena. When Chen Mo arrived, he realized that there were Beast Tamers competing in the two arenas in the center of the arena.
He took a look and realized that they were all Awakening-level battles.
The two Beast Tamers seemed to be newbies. The battle scene was not gorgeous at all. There was even an inexplicable sense of joy.
Chen Mo looked at it for a while and suddenly felt that it was boring. On the other hand, Xiao Jiu was eager to try.
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Let's start the second stage of training first."
"Chirp!"
When they arrived at the front desk, a young lady with pigtails and an affable appearance asked warmly,
"How can I help you?"
"I want to go to the beginner lightning training ground."
"Is it you and your spirit beast?"
"Yes, you can rent protective suits here, right? Give me two sets."
"The entrance fee is 2,000 yuan per person. The two protective suits are 2,000 yuan. The deposit is 5,000 yuan. The total is 11,000 yuan. Please show your payment code. I'll scan you!"
The twin tailed girl said with a smile.
Chen Mo almost cried tears of poverty.
Beast tamers and spirit beasts actually had to collect tickets separately.
Unfair! It was really too unfair!
"Also, let me say this in advance. If there's an accident, you'll bear all the responsibility."
"I understand."
Chen Mo nodded.
"If there's no problem, you can sign this waiver. However, if you're a newbie, I still suggest you hire a coach. At the very least, it can ensure the safety of you and your spirit beast."
The twin-tailed staff pointed to a tall and thin young man with dyed blond hair not far away. Around the young man was a spirit beast with golden wings that looked like an eagle.
It was called the Lightning Bird. It was a lightning-type spirit beast that could summon lightning. Its species rank was usually at the Commander rank. From its size, the one in front of him should be at the Transcendence rank.
The young man noticed the commotion and jogged over. He said to Chen Mo with a smile.
"Little brother, do you want to hire a coach? It's not expensive and it's economical. Our main purpose is to make it cheap."
The young man looked very young, like a university student.
He should be a student from Beast Taming University who came to the Thunderbolt Gymnasium to work part-time during the summer break.
"How much per hour?"
"1,000."
"Then I'll order for an hour!"
1,000 yuan an hour was not considered expensive. After all, the status of a Beast Tamer was very high. Usually, in a high-end competition, the appearance fee of a Beast Tamer was an astronomical figure.
This price was indeed not expensive for a beginner Beast Tamer.
