After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Chapter 79: Chapter 77: Not a Single Drop Can Be Spilled

“That was a courier from the Universal Commerce Guild just now, wasn’t it?” Wang Bing identified the man’s affiliation.

The badge on the left chest of the man in the suit indicated that he came from the Universal Commerce Guild, a nationwide top-tier merchant alliance.

Only a one-time purchase worth over ten million would qualify one to enjoy the privilege of home delivery by a courier, and he had only seen it once before; this was the second time.

Despite their curiosity about what Chen Xing had bought, both of them understood restraint, holding back their eagerness to give Chen Xing some private space.

Chen Xing went to the empty space behind the school team and opened the box.

As Taotie grew increasingly larger, his originally spacious bedroom became more and more cramped for him.

Chen Xing took out the Skill Forgetting Crystal and placed it on Taotie’s forehead.

Taotie raised his head, looking intently at his master with a pair of curious, large eyes, his soul without the slightest defense.

A misty space opened directly above the crown of Taotie’s head, from where a semi-transparent shadow of Taotie emerged.

Inside the shadow floated five semi-transparent spheres resembling Skill Orbs.

Looking through the semi-transparent spheres, one could see clear patterns corresponding to each skill.

Chen Xing held the Skill Forgetting Crystal and pointed it at the Rapid Collision skill.

The yellow crystal melted bit by bit, enveloping the sphere of the Rapid Collision skill, and then completely devoured it little by little.

During this process, the yellow crystal was continuously neutralized.

The Rapid Collision Skill Orb gradually dimmed until all that was left was a pitch-black hole.

Chen Xing hastily took out the Great Flood Skill Orb.

The moment the Great Flood Skill Orb touched the hole, it showed significant resistance, like two magnets with the same poles repelling each other!

Bang~

The Great Flood Skill Orb shattered into countless fragments.

Flecks of debris swirled around the hole.

Chen Xing couldn’t help but feel relieved that he hadn’t rejected his mentor’s advice; this stuff really wasn’t easy to master on the first try.

The second Great Flood Skill Orb was shoved in for another attempt.

For some reason, this time Chen Xing felt it was much easier to insert the orb into the hole.

Chen Xing suspected it might have something to do with the debris encircling the hole.

The Great Flood Skill Orb disappeared in his palm, and a new semi-transparent sphere appeared in the shadow above Taotie.

On Taotie’s panel, a new Advanced Skill successfully appeared: Great Flood.

The mini-game associated with the Great Flood skill is “Not a Single Drop Spilled.”

Mini-game (Not a Single Drop Spilled): Fill a dried-up swimming pool with the Great Flood skill without spilling a single drop over the edge. (0/30)

Chen Xing: …

How is this different from preventing a splash in the bathroom and not letting a single drop spill over?

However, it wasn’t without loopholes to exploit.

He just needed to seal the top of the swimming pool in advance.

The only difficult part was the prerequisite of a dried-up swimming pool.

Meaning, not a drop of water could be in the pool.

This was a very energy-consuming task.

Unless he sought external help, hired someone to empty the pool, or used the power of a Fire Element Beast Tamer to evaporate all the water.

Next, releasing the skill required consuming magic power, but his homemade spicy fish jerky had already solved this problem.

Now he needed a venue and… someone who could work with him.

After some thought, Chen Xing decided to seek out Coach Kuang’s help.

“Hmm? You need a swimming pool?”

“Training a skill? What skill?”

“Great Flood!? When did you master that?”

Kuang Shiyi’s voice grew increasingly excited.

He was astonished that Chen Xing’s Beast Taming had broken through to Energy Level twenty-five and that he had also mastered an Advanced Skill.

But considering the current energy level of the Salty Bay Crocodile, having Advanced Skills at this stage might not necessarily be a good thing.

He asked Chen Xing how he planned to train.

After hearing the training method, Kuang Shiyi felt it was a bit absurd, but the method was indeed useful for increasing the Proficiency Level of the Great Flood skill.

It was certainly challenging, and it sounded so fantastical it was hard to believe.

But since he’d already chosen Chen Xing to compete, he decided to go mad with him.

Chen Xing had told the coach about the Great Flood for a reason, after all, it was a 4V4 team battle.

If he didn’t give his teammates a heads-up to get prepared,

Then whether the Great Flood would drown the enemies or his own team members would be uncertain…

Keep in mind, there was a Mad Blaze Fiery Ape in the teammates that would dare to drown the moment it hit the water.

If by then he ended up hitting his teammates and the Mad Blaze Fiery Ape suffered a backstab, it would be a major mess-up.

If he gave a heads-up beforehand, the Mad Blaze Fiery Ape could at least get on the back of the Cultivating Giant Turtle in advance to avoid the flood.

“Coach, I’m going to buy some magic power recovery capsules,”

Chen Xing told Coach Kuang.

Spicy dried fish could indeed recover magic power, but he felt it wasn’t time to reveal that, so he decided to buy some magic power recovery capsules first.

The price was also acceptable, the lowest model at two thousand yuan each, roughly able to restore 30-50% of magic power for a Beast Taming creature with an energy level of 25.

Kuang Shiyi waved his hand, “Go ahead, and as for the pool, the school swimming hall happens to have a large one, I’ll communicate with the logistics department to rent it for today.”

The water summoned by the Great Flood skill was no trivial amount.

The pool behind the school team was too small; if the Great Flood was summoned, the volume of water would certainly exceed the limit.

In the evening, Chen Xing called home.

He was going to participate in the competition tomorrow, so he wouldn’t be coming home tonight.

He told his mother to remember to watch the Shu State Cup program tomorrow morning.

…

“I heard that Director Qin’s son is participating in the finals of this year’s Shu State Cup.”

“That’s not the final, it’s the elimination round; the last match is called the final.”

“Oh, it’s all the same, the program is starting.”

The voices of a pair of women chatting while buying groceries made Liu Yuzhen stop in her tracks in the supermarket and turn to look at the TV hanging on the wall.

The TV was broadcasting a program.

“Welcome to the 32nd Great Xia Shu State Cup, I am your beloved host Lin Xuan, currently live broadcasting from Jinzhou Stadium. Please join me in welcoming the Top 32 teams of this Shu State Cup to the stage—”

On the program, the huge stadium resembled an inverted colossal bowl, its dome featuring a giant skylight.

The camera swept across, showing the stands on both sides packed with people, the crowds swelling like waves.

Raucous cheers echoed as if to explode from the TV, occasionally interspersed with a few excited screams.

In the scene, the camera zoomed in on groups of boys and girls dressed in school team uniforms confidently striding through the entrance with sunlit smiles.

Liu Yuzhen thought of the call her son and daughter had made the previous day, asking her to switch to the local channel one the next morning.

She remembered that her son had joined the school team, and although he was just a substitute for now, she believed that one day Chen Xing would certainly become a main player.

Suddenly, Liu Yuzhen did a double-take—she thought she saw… Lingya in the fourth team.

The camera swiftly moved on.

However, Liu Yuzhen was certain she hadn’t misrecognized her own daughter.

She suddenly recalled the secretive words Lingya had told her before leaving the house that morning.

This darn girl, not mentioning such a big event sooner.

Liu Yuzhen felt both amused and gratified.

Both of her children knew how to keep their cool.

She also wondered what the morning TV program’s “surprise” her son had mentioned could be.

Liu Yuzhen stood in front of the camera for quite a while, and after spotting Chen Xing in a group wearing white school uniforms towards the back, she revealed a knowing smile that only she understood.

She quickly finished buying groceries, checked out, and on her way home, she called Chen Guohai, who was exercising on the fitness equipment downstairs, back home as well.
