Chapter 22: The Proud Cloud Cap Snake

Translator:Atlas StudiosEditor:Atlas Studios

Teacher Zheng gave out instructions to each student seriously.

He also had a rough plan for each student's future training direction, until he got to Lin Xi's turn.

He stared at the Cloud Cap Snake beside her.

It was very arrogant, and did not meet his gaze.

The snake was beautiful, just like its owner. It stood there quietly, its eyes filled with disdain.

It probably didn't acknowledge the soul pets Teacher Zheng had addressed.

It's a little proud, Lin Xi said.

It's not just pride, Teacher Zheng shook his head, slightly embarrassed. The Cloud Cap Snake is very intellectual. Extremely precious young soul pets will all have very high intelligence after they develop. Ordinary people will find it very difficult to earn its recognition, and so it'll be challenging to even sign a soul pact with its soul egg.

The Cloud Cap Snake gently flicked its tail, combing through it with its tiny hands.

Then, it strutted toward a small tree, as if rejecting Teacher Zheng's guidance.

With such an arrogant attitude, the other soul pets didn't dare to approach it. They were also afraid and quickly made way for it to pass.

When it reached Wang Che, it's path was blocked by the green caterpillar, which was still in a daze.

The Cloud Cap Snake raised its head slightly and sized up the green caterpillar that was much larger than itself, and had a higher cultivation level too.

There was no fear in it at all.

The snake's eyes were filled with scorn.

Hiss! Hiss! The Cloud Cap Snake hissed, demanding it to move aside.

The green caterpillar stared back with a confused expression on its face.

This little one's level of intelligence was three to four years lower than the other arrogant one.

Based on Wang Che's estimations, the intelligence of this Cloud Cap Snake had already reached the standard of a 12-year-old human.

The green caterpillar, on the other hand, was around the level of a five or six year old when it hatched.

It had increased a little after this period of training, but it wasn't possible for it to mature so fast.

Otherwise, Wang Che would not have to be drawing while he told it stories.

In addition to giving the young one a sense of immersion, it was also intended to help it understand the story better.

The insect did not budge at all, which made the Cloud Cap Snake unhappy.

After all, soul pets of different species could not understand each other so easily, unless they were extremely bright.

Hiss! Hiss! The Cloud Cap Snake raised its voice and pointed to the side, gesturing for it to move.

The green caterpillar finally understood, but it first glanced at Wang Che.

He smiled and nodded.

Only then did it obediently move to the other side.

Teacher Zheng's eyes flashed.

It had just been an insignificant exchange, but it was enough to tell that both parties were very close.

Lin Xi was silent for a moment and felt her face heat up.

This was actually a sign that she had not nurtured her soul pet well enough.

A young soul pet had just casually left its Contract Soul Master's side and did not even ask for her opinion before doing so. If its personality couldn't be restrained, it showed that she did not raise the soul pet well.

This had nothing to do with a soul pet's aptitude, soul power cultivation, or strength.

Otherwise, it would not have looked so derisive.

Everyone fell silent and felt a little awkward.

Extremely cherished soul pets are harder to cultivate, Wang Che said as he looked at everyone. Teacher Zheng, we should have a chance to obtain a rare soul pet in the future, right? How should we cultivate it then?

The sudden change of topic piqued everyone's interest and they shifted their attention to Teacher Zheng.

He smiled and thought to himself, This kid is so sensible.'

Wang Che had managed to quickly spare Lin Xi from the shame.

She pursed her lips slightly and glanced at Wang Che

That's a very good question! Teacher Zheng exclaimed earnestly. Regarding these coveted soul pets, you will all have a chance to receive them in the future. However, those will be your second or third soul pets, as they have a potential higher than 300. Because of this, they can basically be raised beyond 100,000 years of soul beast cultivation.

At the very least, it can provide your martial souls with more than two powerful soul rings and soul skills. There are many benefits to it, but I won't say any more.

Remember that most rare soul pets have their own pride. Achieving their recognition and deepening the soul pact between the both of you won't be easy. The first step is still the enlightenment of the soul pet.

Immediately after, he started to recap about soul skills from the beginning.

The Cloud Cap Snake is an exceptionally powerful and proud soul pet, Teacher Zheng slowly added. Among the very unique soul pets, it is not weak in all aspects, and is rather thorough. In terms of its ten-year soul skills, there are many choices to pick from. Those that are more inclined towards attacking can learn the conventional soul skill, Rumbling Tail Strike! There are also other attribute soul skills, like Seed Bomb.

Seed Bomb is targeted for the initial stages of the Cloud Cap Snake. There's a high chance of comprehending it when its cultivation is close to 70 years.

Rumbling Tail Strike is the most powerful and difficult to comprehend among all the ten-year soul skills. It requires the soul pet to be able to utilize their own soul power to a certain extent. Prioritize training and understanding to master this.

Then, he proceeded to explain the training methods and details of the two soul skills he had just mentioned.

Teacher Zheng, this little one of mine is about to learn the Rumbling Tail Strike, Lin Xi murmured and frowned as she waited for Teacher Zheng to finish speaking. But it feels like it's always lacking something.

She had actually already known most of what he had mentioned.

Oh?

Teacher Zheng's eyes lit up as he urged, Let this young one try it!

With that, he pointed toward a nearby boulder.

Lin Xi nodded and beckoned at her soul pet in the distance.

It obediently slithered over.

Cloud Cap Snake, use your tail to strike this rock with the rhythm we usually train with! she commanded strictly.

Hiss! it replied nonchalantly.

However, as it approached the boulder, its gaze suddenly changed, becoming very focused and serious!

It rushed forward, spinning into a green arc, so fast that no one could keep up with it.

Smack!

As it neared, the light of the arc changed. The tail of the Cloud Cap Snake emitted a violent glow and suddenly lurched it forward.

A firecracker-like crackle could be heard.

The huge rock soared through the air and landed more than ten meters away with a dull thud.

Everyone was horrified.

The enormous boulder had been half the height of a regular person. At the very least, manpower of four or five students would have been required to move it at all.

The 30 centimeter tall Cloud Cap Snake had only whipped its tail and sent it flying

Its power was too terrifying!

Teacher Zheng walked to the side and sized up the stone, shaking his head slightly.

The Rumbling Tail Strike from the Cloud Cap Snake was very impressive!

However, the force was scattered too much, so there was no trace of any effect on the surface of the rock.

In other words, no significant damage was done.

Although it was very loud and spectacular, it was more like the boulder had been pushed out instead.

It could not be considered as a true finishing blow.

Logically speaking, even a normal strike should have been able to split the boulder in half.

That's right, Teacher Zheng said, nodding slightly. It's already about 60 to 70 percent complete. It should be able to fully comprehend it in seven days.

A smile spread on Lin Xi's face.

Ssss! The green caterpillar behind Wang Che called out to him all of a sudden.

Wang Che glanced at the little creature and understood what it meant.

I can crush the stone with a lash of my tail!'

He stroked the little one's head and coughed twice, indirectly telling it not to force itself.

He knew that it was possible.

The material of this giant rock was the same as when he had fought with Yuan Xiaole.

Even if it swung its tail, it could indeed destroy the boulder without even using the Rumbling Tail Strike.

However

Wang Che did not want to reveal too much of its capabilities at the moment.

Suddenly, a classmate voiced out.

Wang Che, your green caterpillar also has a tail. It might even be able to learn the Rumbling Tail Strike. Do you want to try it?

Everyone was stunned and felt quite amused.

Some of the students found it interesting, and also started to cheer.

Lin Xi was also shocked. She lowered her head and fell into deep thought.

The Cloud Cap Snake slithered over, chuckling, as if it understood what had been said. It scowled at the green caterpillar behind Wang Che.

Teacher Zheng coughed and glared at the student, The green caterpillar's soul skill inheritance does not include a tail strike. To comprehend it is basically very troublesome Stop interrupting me.

Xu Haifeng cursed, F*ck you. The green caterpillar has a tail that can be used to attack? You have a tail in front of your body too, why don't you use it to fight?

Everyone was unable to retort.

The boys immediately got the message, and some of the girls blushed.

The teacher glared at Xu Haifeng.

As usual, the students enjoyed watching the commotion.

Wang Che coughed and shook his head.

This was not surprising.

It was mainly because he had a green caterpillar with 50 years of cultivation that was rather splendid, so it was normal for him to be mentioned.

At this moment, Lin Xi added, Actually, it's not impossible for it to learn the Rumbling Tail Strike, but it's very strenuous. Wang Che, you might be able to do it. Now, can you let your soul pet test the strength of its tail and see if Teacher Zheng has any good suggestions?

You can then work in the direction of his instructions.

Her words were sincere, and her tone was clearly encouraging to Wang Che.

There was even a hint of anticipation.

Moreover, they were seriously discussing the possibility rather than comparing their soul pets.

It was clearly a good thing.

Everyone turned their attention toward Teacher Zheng.

He pondered for a moment. Lin Xi was right.

He knew better than these students what a green caterpillar was.

It was impossible for ordinary ones to learn the Rumbling Tail Strike.

Forget about 50 years, even 100 years of cultivation would still be futile.

However, what about Wang Che?

If he tried now, it would expose the fact that despite the green caterpillar having an extremely high cultivation level, it still had a weak body.

It would be a little embarrassing.

After all, Wang Che had painstakingly trained for the past two weeks and cultivated 50 years. If he discovered that his soul pet was still so feeble. Wouldn't that be a devastating blow to him?

As a teacher, he had more thoughts raging in his mind, but what Lin Xi said was right.

The key was whether Wang Che was willing or not.

Finally, Wang Che thought about it and nodded.

Alright then.

He turned to his little one and gave it a look with a hidden meaning, which seemed to be say, You're not allowed to use your soul power, just casually whip your tail.

There was a soul contract between the two. They had been training for some time and had even fought battles together.

Naturally, they had a tacit understanding.

The green caterpillar enlarged its eyes, blinking while nodding as it moved over
