Beast Taming Starts with Ground Mushrooms

Chapter 10: The Bright Road to Wealth

Those who have lost hope in life will inevitably burn themselves out if they grasp at the spark of hope.

Lin Yi felt that this sentence was perfectly apt to describe the little mushroom at this moment.

After being instilled with and taught the [Grass Sword Technique], the little mushroom, who had tasted for the first time that he was not a waste, transformed into a sword-training beast who practiced day and night.

It was so eager to be powerful, and it tried so hard.

Despite its small size, the little mushroom's sword-wielding speed remains unaffected.

that moment.

Lin Yi seemed to see countless familiar young figures in the mushroom.

They were diligent and ambitious, working day and night, even pulling countless all-nighters, their eyes bloodshot, forgetting the time.

But in the end, he still failed to reach the King rank.

Although Lin Yi didn't understand what kind of honor the King of Kings was, that it was worth so many young people rushing to it and taking the lead.

But now, Mushroom Boy is just like those people in the previous life, so obsessed that he can't be awakened.

"Little mushroom, you can't practice like this anymore."

If they keep training like this, the monthly supply of evolution fluid probably won't last even half a month.

Of course, Lin Yi wouldn't really stop the mushroom from working hard. The mushroom was already working so hard, so there was no reason for him not to be able to provide even this little bit of evolution fluid. He already had a preliminary plan for the source of the evolution fluid in the future.

Hmm... As for the evolution fluid at the spirit plant cultivation base, given my character, I would never even consider taking it. That's a cultivation fluid for level one evolved beast pets. Mushroom Cub has already evolved to level two, so it's useless to me, absolutely useless.

Lin Yi's thinking was very clear: if he wanted to keep up with the demand for evolution fluid, he had to make money.

And you have to make a lot of money, the kind that comes in really fast.

"If I could sell the perfected pet skill paper developed by the cheat system, and get a good price for it, wouldn't the money just come naturally?"

After several days and nights of deep thought, Lin Yi finally found a bright path to wealth.

That is, selling the perfected and improved pet skill papers using cheat codes.

Through repeated comparisons, Lin Yi discovered that the paper processed by the "copying" function of his golden finger in his mind was far more perfect than the original paper in terms of indoctrination methods, teaching methods, implementation process, reinforcement path, etc.

This may be one of the reasons why mushroom seedlings can be obtained and immediately reach the "beginner level".

"According to the skill paper 'copied' by the cheat code, using the improved paper to train pets not only simplifies the process but also reduces the training time by at least two-thirds."

Having digested the entire paper on species and pet skills in one go, Lin Yi has gained considerable insight into the field of 'knowledge'.

By comparing it with the [Grass Sword Technique] skill given by Tang Xinyi, it is not difficult to find that when the cheat code 'copys' these skills, it will automatically deduce and improve each step, making the original teaching method less detour and easier to understand. Almost any beast tamer who is not completely rusty in the basics of beast taming can learn it from the start.

What do beast tamers need most?

It boils down to two points.

First, there's the talent for taming beasts. A tamer with high talent can easily teach their beasts skills. However, not everyone has talent. If you don't have enough talent, you can make up for it with academic papers. The better the academic paper on the beast's skills, the easier it will be to teach them.

And this is precisely the condition most lacking in the world of Beast Tamers.

As for the second one, that is... time!

Time... for a beast tamer, is the key to everything, and also one of the ways to quickly improve the strength of their beast pets.

With both of these, it's hard not to make money.

"You could try setting up a skill paper refinement studio, with the focus on improving pet skill papers."

Without hesitation, Lin Yi immediately began preparations.

With the idea of ​​growing mushrooms and making money in mind, Lin Yi also started to get busy. In the early morning, he would work like a slave at the spiritual plant cultivation base, and in the afternoon, he would come back to train the mushrooms. In the evening, he would start writing papers on the computer.

It's called writing, but it's really just typing the "Cao Zi Jian Shu" (a martial arts technique) into the computer after "copying and perfecting" the cheat code, and then finding an opportunity to release it to make money.

Of course, the revised [Grass Sword Technique] cannot contain words such as "cross-species elimination" and needs to be slightly modified.

After five days and five nights of hard work, Lin Yi finally uploaded his 100,000-word skills paper to the computer. Looking at his masterpiece, he was very proud.

"This is physically demanding work."

However, it's worth the physical effort, since you can't earn money without putting in the work.

After formatting the skill paper that he had typed into the computer, Lin Yi registered a new account on the forum of Tiannan Beast Taming University: 【Genius Beast Tamer Skill Paper Refinement Studio】

After setting up the forum background, Lin Yi thought for a moment and added some gimmicks.

"These days, if you don't have an eye-catching gimmick, you won't get any views when you post something."

Of course, the gimmick couldn't be too outrageous, so Lin Yi wrote a small line on the homepage: After refinement, the difficulty of education will be reduced by half, the education time will be reduced by two-thirds, and the enhancement path will be greatly improved.

Is the power of this one line of small print enough?

Whether it's true or false, which beast tamer wouldn't be tempted by such an alluring slogan?

After setting up the homepage, Lin Yi posted the improved version of the "Grass Sword Technique" using his cheat system, but not in its entirety; only the first half could be studied.

As for the second half, sorry, you need to recharge first.

It seems a bit shameless, but what is a face anyway?

Everything is ready except for pricing, and how much to price has become a problem.

After a moment's thought, Lin Yi typed a '1' and three '0's in the pricing area. Then, after thinking for a while, he added another zero.

Priced at ten thousand, spending ten thousand to refine a pet skill isn't excessive, is it?

"This is just helping others, how can you call it going too far? They should be thanking me."

With a soft whisper, Lin Yi didn't hesitate any longer and immediately published his skills paper. After watching the page show that the publication was successful, he went to the forum to check his published content before finally turning off his computer with peace of mind.

As for whether anyone will read it or buy it, he wasn't worried at all; good wine needs no bush.

After closing his laptop, Lin Yi turned around and went to accompany Gu Zai in training, completely forgetting about the matter.

……

At this time.

In another boys' dormitory not far from Lin Yi's dormitory.

Yuan Hai, a fellow new Beastmaster in this year's class, was browsing the forum, constantly searching for "a simpler way to teach the skills of the Sword Spirit Grass," looking utterly distressed.

"It's been half a year already. If I still can't teach them the [Grass Sword Technique], I'll be the next laughing stock in the class."

"Which damned senior discovered this pet skill? The explanation is so long, who can understand it?"

"There must be some heretical cultivation method that can quickly convert people. Zhao Cheng's talent for beast taming is even worse than mine, but he succeeded. There's no reason why I can't."

Yuan Hai had a large head, and the light reflected from the screen shone on his face, making the Sword Spirit Grass Beast pet in front of the computer appear even greener.

After scrolling through the forum to the bottom, Yuan Hai still couldn't find the so-called "heretical cultivation method." Disappointed, but unwilling to give up, he changed his search terms and searched again.

At this time.

A recently posted message caught his attention.

"A studio specializing in refining skill papers for genius beast tamers?"

"After refinement, the difficulty of education will be reduced by half, the education time will be reduced by two-thirds, and the enhancement path will be greatly improved."

After reading the title and the homepage content, Yuan Hai sneered. "They're treating people like three-year-olds! They think they can halve the difficulty of education and reduce the time by two-thirds..."

"If you were really that capable, would you need to post this here?"

"This kind of trick might fool some brainless newbies, but it won't fool me, Yuan Shikai. No way."

"Do you really think this big head of mine is just for show?"

Yuan Hai intended to scroll past it directly, but the title of the folder below the post caught his attention.

"A refined version of the [Grass Sword Technique] for the plant-type pet sword spirit grass?"

"Oh ho, still my specialty, my beast, brandishing a broadsword before Guan Yu?"

Yuan Hai immediately let out a cold laugh. Already in a bad mood because he couldn't find the "heretical cultivation method", he directly opened the file.

"Brother, you walked right into the line of fire, so don't blame me."

After a little study, one can immediately launch into a tirade.

After all, he was a spirit plant-type beast tamer, and the first beast he contracted happened to be a sword spirit grass beast. No one understood the [Grass Sword Technique] better than a beast tamer like him.

If this guy dares to publish the original paper directly, that's reason enough to criticize him. If he just makes some random changes to fool people, then don't blame Yuan for killing people without shedding blood.

Big Head is in a bad mood right now and needs to vent.

Upon opening the file, a densely packed thesis quickly unfolded on the screen, and Yuan Hai began to study it word by word.

"Ha, there really were changes. You're dead meat."

After studying just a few hundred words, Yuan Hai's lips curled up. Every change had something to criticize. Thoroughly understanding this paper was difficult for him, but making comparisons was not so difficult.

"Kid, you've had the worst luck of eight lifetimes to run into me, Big Head."
