Leveling up

When Rishi awoke in the morning, the first thing he did was stretch a little bit, then he came out of the cave and began dissecting the serpent beast's corpse.

He removed its venomous glands with care and stored the venom in one of the bamboo bottles.

Then he extracted both of its fangs and stored them.

After completing all his work, Rishi summoned his 'book of contracts' and called out Sheru.

The book produced a white-colored card with Sheru's photo on the front and five black-colored stars on the back.

The first black star was half-golden, while the rest were completely black; this perplexed him for a while, but he eventually came up with a reasonable explanation.

The color of the card must correspond to the beast's Cultivation.

The color white must represent common Stage.

The five stars must represent the ten levels in common Stage, implying that each star represents two levels.

Sheru is a level 1 common Stage beast, which is why its card looked like this, and the half-golden star in the card must represent a level 1 beast.

The beast card transformed into golden light, which then compressed to form a baby tiger.

As soon as Sheru was summoned, It jumped onto him.

It climbed onto Rishi and licked his face and cutely 'chuffed.'

Rishi also patted him on the head and checked its body to see if all its wounds were healed; after confirming its health, Rishi sighed and said, "Today we have to reach level 2."

Sheru 'growled' with a determined expression. Rishi then put Sheru on the ground, and said, "Let's go," and started running.

Sheru followed behind him, and they soon arrived at the stream. Rishi and Sheru drank some water before waiting for a beast to appear in the stream.

They waited patiently for a while, and then a red-tailed fox, a fox-type level 1 beast, approached the stream with caution.

Rishi patted Sheru on the back as he was about to attack it, which calmed him down. "Let him come close, Sheru," Rishi said slowly.

The fox-type beast approached the stream after a few seconds. Rishi looked at it carefully and then said, "Sheru attack."

Sheru attacked the beast as soon as he heard Rishi's command.

The beast was caught off guard, but it reacted in time and dodged Sheru's claw by a few centimeters.

Sheru attacked it once more, this time with full force, and also used his "Tiger Claw" active skill to increase the damage of his attack. Sheru's claw landed on the beast's neck this time, ending its life in a single attack.

Sheru then turned around towards Rishi, waging his tail as if asking for praise. "Well done, Sheru," Rishi said, "but next time don't use your full strength at the start or else you will get tired quickly, and fighting a bigger fight will help you train for unexpected situations."

Then an orb of white appeared from the beast's corpse and entered Sheru's body, causing him to 'growl' in delight as he leveled up.

His size has increased by a few centimeters, and his cat-like look has also changed, making him look like a wild cat.

As he leveled up, Rishi felt a pleasant sensation in his body. His height has also increased by a few centimeters.

He opened the "Book of contracts" and looked at his and Sheru's new stats.
