Chapter 9 The Deception Plan (Seeking Investment and Readership)_3

So today, its enthusiasm for training has significantly increased compared to yesterday.

"The first-level Energy Cube you absorbed yesterday wasn't fully assimilated," Lin Su stroked Qiuqiu's head while explaining, "According to the energy absorption curve for pets, you've only absorbed about seventy percent so far, and there's still thirty percent of the energy in your body that hasn't been completely utilized."

While explaining, Lin Su pulled up the relevant formulas and curves on the communicator to show Qiuqiu, all of which are theoretical knowledge that should be learned in high school, and Lin Su had long since mastered them.

Qiuqiu immediately looked at Lin Su with eyes filled with admiration.

What's it like having a Beast Tamer who's an academic overachiever?

"Meow? (´ω｀)" (So how can I fully absorb it?)

"A greater amount of training. Right now, you need to completely exhaust your physical strength to force your body to absorb the accumulated energy, so today we're going to increase our training time to four hours," Lin Su gave Qiuqiu an encouraging look, "and the frequency of Frost Storm training is going to be increased as well."

"Meow?" (But what if my physical strength can't recover in time?)

"That's easy to solve. Today, we won't go to the beginner's ice and snow training ground; we'll head straight to the intermediate one, where the ice and snow energy is much stronger and can help you recover faster."

Lin Su activated the calculator on the communicator, and after a series of calculations, he looked at Qiuqiu, "Roughly every ten minutes, you should be able to recover the strength to perform Frost Storm, meaning you can cast Frost Storm twenty-four times in four hours, significantly improving your proficiency with the skill."

"Meow?! (°ω°)" (Double the practice?!)

"To progress a skill from level I to level II, it requires at least a thousand repetitions. Some special skills need even more," Lin Su paused, "The Snow Blow you learned yesterday is one of them. Since level II Snow Blow will undergo a transformation in quality, the number of practice repetitions for Snow Blow to move from level I to level II could potentially reach tens of thousands."

"Meow... Meow?! (°ω°)" (Ten... tens of thousands?!)

The expression on Qiuqiu's face gradually turned to horror.

"So, you've got to work hard," Lin Su's eyes teased as he looked at Qiuqiu, "I originally planned to teach you some other skills, but right now these three skills already take up all your training time. So I've decided, before you reach level II on these three skills, I'm not going to teach you any new ones."

"Meow!" (No way!)

Upon hearing this, Qiuqiu shook its head without hesitation.

Having learned Snow Blow yesterday, it had already tasted the sweetness of new skills, and now, hearing that there were other new skills, it couldn't wait any longer.

Reaching level II for a skill? I can do it!

Increase training volume? I can do it!

Jumping out of Lin Su's arms, Qiuqiu dashed to the front door and looked back at Lin Su.

"Meow, meow! (≧ω≦)" (Beast Tamer, hurry up, let's go train!)

"Ah, this..." Lin Su closed the communicator, looking at the impatiently stomping Qiuqiu at the door with a somewhat joyful expression.

He had indeed intentionally said those words to boost Qiuqiu's training motivation. This was a common encouragement method used by Beast Tamers to motivate their pets: the goal-reward method.

Only... was the effect a bit too strong?

"No rush, we must have some energy replenishment before training. Let's have breakfast first, and then go to the association for training," Lin Su said with a helpless smile.

A pet that's too eager can be a bit tiring for a Beast Tamer.

After all, he had to train as well.

Decision made: Today's breakfast will be four big meat buns and two cups of soy milk.

Add one more big meat bun, and even lunch can be skipped.
