Astral Pet Store (WN)

Chapter 1466 Level-8 Store (1)

Time zipped by.

A hundred years had passed since the friendly contest.

Such a span of time was just the blink of an eye for Ascendant cultivators. However, many things had happened during that century, which the experts remembered vividly.

It took no more than five years for the cyborgs to promote the contract method after the contest.

Since then, the beasts that cyborgs had kept in the ocean and on the continent had become increasingly expensive. Some of the keen-eyed capitalists had bought a lot of beasts right after the contest ended. The move turned them into the richest people in that great era of change.

Other than the business tycoons, there were also great political reforms. For cyborgs, it was no different from an industrial revolution.

As the contract method was promoted, the relation of the two clans quickly heated up. Many of the human Celestials became bigshots among cyborgs.

Some were even interviewed by the cyborg-run newspapers and recorded in their history books.

It only took twenty years for pet stores to appear all over the cyborg world.

Many stores tried to increase their popularity by claiming that they had human pet trainers.

Many cyborgs had indeed learned the technique from humans, they were simply too inexperienced and had to rely on human support in that aspect.

As a result, humans were gradually assimilated into the cyborg society, making their alliance even more solid.

Fifty years after the friendly contest-cyborgs were already used to contracted beasts. Fifty years were enough for humans to adapt to many things, and cyborgs were even better to adapt.

Humans at the moment were no longer restrained on the Nine States, and were scattered on the cyborg world; the talented ones were already treated as honorable guests.

Of course, despite the general peace, conflicts would inevitably arise. However, thanks to the coverage of their higher-ups, news never got out.

Only the good news of them helping each other would be spread.

After all, it was impossible for the two clans to restrain all of their people. Those who caused conflicts would be despised by both clans if word accidentally got out.

Once the contract method was popularized, the overall cyborg strength was significantly improved. Many of the humanoids with powerful backgrounds acquired tough pets that made them much stronger; even stronger than human elites.

The Nine States

In a routine meeting of the Celestial experts at their headquarters.

“There are more and more experts among the cyborgs. Their comprehensive strength is probably far greater than ours. Their leaders seem to have tamed the Whale King recently,” said Chi Ying solemnly, “I also heard some people complaining about the cyborgs. They seem to be acting less respectful as of late.”

“It’s just that some people are getting cocky. That’s normal.”

Shen Huang said with a smile, “Pet training is still our advantage; they cannot possibly learn that so quickly. Our pet training is five times as effective as theirs. Many cyborgs have been voluntarily coming to us.”

“But pet training is just a soft power; it’s the hard power that really matters. I fear that they’ll change their minds after their overall strength improves,” said Chi Ying, heaving a sigh.

“You’re overthinking,” said Shen Huang, “Most cyborgs are friendly to us. The contract method is obviously helpful to them. Many cyborgs are even applying to join our clan; some even hope to change their genes and become complete human beings. This proves the attraction of our species.” “But those people are just fence sitters. They’re useless.” Someone shook their head.

SOIlie

Shen Huang smiled. “But it still proves the charm of our clan.”

“That’s true…”

“I heard that the cyborgs have been thinking about the green glass.”

Xu Kong suddenly said, “The available beasts are not enough for all the cyborgs, and the pets on the market are becoming more expensive. Some of the middling pets cost half the possessions of someone at their level. This isn’t going to work out. Right now, the lack of sufficient pets will cause trouble.”

“I don’t think they would dare to do anything to the green glass,” said Shen Huang with a frown, “However, some people at the bottom level might have other thoughts. After all, the returns are truly huge. I’ll talk to them later.”

“That’s right. We should pay attention to this.”

“Well… If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way. Boss Su has just finished training Old Qing,” said Chi Huo, suddenly raising his hand. He looked like someone whose girlfriend called in the middle of a meeting.

“This guy…”

The others shook their heads with a smile. Shen Huang chuckled. “Go now. Don’t keep Xiao Su waiting.” “Sure thing!”

Chi Huo quickly left with a smile.

“In any case, Boss Su’s training technique is something that those cyborgs will never be able to learn. However arrogant they are, they have to count on him. I heard that Basha and the others went to visit Boss Su earlier, but they were kicked out and had to wait in line,” said Chi Ying with a smile.

Xu Kong chuckled and added, “They are the leaders of their clan, and were too proud to wait in line. What a shame. They wouldn’t have cared one bit about their faces had they known how extraordinary the pets become after Boss Su trains them.”
