Chapter 585: Chapter 25 Apprentice_4
Yao Wudi noticed Wang Ba’s gaze and responded with a chuckle.
Wang Ba quickly shook his head.
“No, to , Master you have always been wise and brave.”
He joked, even if it were true, he couldn’t let it out.
Yao Wudi listened to Wang Ba’s flattery, laughed, but didn’t say anything more.
In the days following, Wang Ba spent almost every day refining spirit food, cultivating, observing and recording the progress of the Spirit Chickens and Spirit Turtles, and visiting various cultivators with Yao Wudi.
Despite being a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, brimming with energy, he was almost at his limit.
Finally, Cui Daqi and big drinker He took the initiative and completed all this month’s tasks a day early, giving everyone in the Spirit Food Departnt a day off.
Though Wang Ba desperately wanted to lie down, do nothing and rest for a while, when he thought about all the things he had to do, he mustered the strength and made a trip to the Beast Peak.
…
“Hmm, you’ve managed to learn it just about adequately.”
Inside Qi Yan’s immortal cave on Beast Peak.
Wang Ba respectfully stood in front of a lavish desk.
Qi Yan put down the scroll he held in his hand with an indifferent expression and said, not matching his thoughts.
His mind was full of complexities though.
He had deliberately tested Wang Ba just now to gauge his progress studying “The Scroll of Beast Controlling: Volu Two” over this period.
After all, he had heard about Wang Ba’s recent activities — it was said that Yao Wudi had been taking him to visit all the peaks every day, and in addition, all the divisions of the Five Elents Division were too busy, making it evident that Wang Ba would hardly have ti to delve into “The Scroll of Beast Controlling.”
However, the result was sowhat unexpected to him. Wang Ba answered all the series of questions he asked, and his performance was far better than Qi Yan had anticipated.
It was even better than Mo Qi, who was dedicated to his studies and under his guidance.
Most of this was probably due to Wang Ba’s deep foundation in breeding spirit beasts, which allowed him to apply his knowledge to other related areas. Nonetheless, it couldn’t be denied that Wang Ba had indeed made great efforts on “Volu Two.”
Perfect attitude, perfect talent…
At this mont, Qi Yan couldn’t help but entertain a thought again:
“If only I had just gone to Yan State in the first place…”
Sensing the fluctuations in his mind, Qi Yan imdiately dismissed the stray thoughts. He then cleared his throat and asked,
“Do you have any questions about ‘The Scroll of Beast Controlling: Volu Two’?”
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba promptly put forward a question he had already prepared:
“Martial Uncle Qi, how should I go about erasing or blocking the spawning of spiritual wisdom in a group of spirit beasts?”
“Erasing the spiritual wisdom of spirit beasts?”
Upon hearing this, Qi Yan frowned slightly.
This question wasn’t covered in “The Scroll of Beast Controlling: Volu Two.”
Strictly speaking, it wasn’t even included in the scope of “The Scroll of Beast Controlling.”
“Why do you want to erase the spiritual wisdom of spirit beasts?”
Qi Yan couldn’t help but ask.
Wang Ba hesitated for a mont and as it was a professional issue, he didn’t dare to conceal anything and said,
“I have raised a kind of spirit beast that can be used as the main ingredient in a spirit food recipe, but because it has spiritual wisdom, I fear that this won’t be well received by the Sect.”
Upon hearing this, Qi Yan looked surprised and asked, “What kind is it?”
Wang Ba promptly brought out a top-grade, Class II Azure Spirit Turtle.
“Oh…”
Qi Yan scanned it briefly and noticed sothing:
“This is a common turtle from the areas of Sen and Chen, the Yellow Throat Stone Turtle, crossed with the Armored Giant-head Turtle that can be found around Yan State?”
“The color isn’t quite right… Could it be a mutated version of one of these species? Did the Yellow Throat Stone Turtle mutate, or the Armored Giant-head Turtle?”
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba couldn’t help but look up at him with admiration.
As expected of the Peak Master of Beast Peak, his understanding of spirit beasts was as if he had their patterns drawn on the palm of his hand.
He quickly replied, “It’s a mutated version of the Yellow Throat Stone Turtle.”
Qi Yan nodded slightly, walked over to the Azure Spirit Turtle, and lightly tapped the back of its shell, which instantly produced a crisp sound like tal colliding.
Qi Yan couldn’t help but be slightly taken aback:
“What a hard shell! I’m afraid even a typical Golden Core wouldn’t be able to break this shell. Without a suitable Magic Tool, it would be hard to penetrate its defense.”
He couldn’t resist turning back to look at Wang Ba: “How did you co up with the idea to crossbreed these two kinds of turtles?”
Wang Ba hurriedly replied, “It was just luck, pure luck.”
This was not humility, but the truth. At that ti, he only had these two types of spirit turtles; there were no other options.
However, Qi Yan wasn’t completely convinced. If it had been so random person who bred them, he might have believed it, but Wang Ba, being such a genius, could only raise such spirit beasts with real skills and knowledge.
At least to his knowledge, the grades of these two spirit turtles were very low; one of them was even a mundane turtle, just slightly more spiritual.
To breed a top-grade, Class II beast would require a lot of effort and wisdom.
But he didn’t say anything more and instead looked at the Azure Spirit Turtle with appreciation-filled eyes.
“Perfect defense ability, it’s quite suitable as an Enforcer spirit beast for young disciples. Maybe we can even breed them in large quantities in the Beast Departnt.”
“Wait here for a mont; I need to test it.”
With that, Qi Yan walked straight into the back of his immortal cave with the Azure Spirit Turtle.
Wang Ba couldn’t help but be sowhat dumbfounded at his words.
However, Qi Yan soon ca out leisurely, and his indifferent face barely concealed a hint of joy.
He looked at Wang Ba and bluntly said, “Would you be willing to give this spirit beast to the Sect?”
“Give it to the Sect?”
Qi Yan’s words were sowhat unexpected for Wang Ba.
