"Uh." The girl fumbled around but finally managed to hold Little Fire Fox.
Du Yu simply didn't say a word.
Feeling exhausted.
Originally thought I would be King Zhou in the future, but unexpectedly, Little Fire Fox is the female Sea King.
"Did you bully her?" the girl asked softly. Generally, Demon Pet cubs are very dependent on their owners, not to mention those who have already signed a contract.
Moreover, once the contract is signed, the Demon Pet can enter the owner's body to rest and live.
But this Little Fire Fox has been staying outside, reluctant to go home. Reasonably speculating, there might be a problem with the Demon Pet's owner.
"No, no, this little guy is just lively and active, sorry for the trouble."
"It's not troublesome; you should get your luggage first." the girl said gently, her face full of affection as she looked at the rubbing Little Fire Fox in her arms, obviously having no resistance to beautiful cute things.
When the group of five carried their luggage back to the campus, they automatically divided into two groups.
"Gulu gulu..."
All the way silently, Du Yu carried the backpack and pushed Li Mengnan's suitcase, listening to the sound of the wheels rubbing and rotating on the yellow ground, feeling quite awkward inside.
"I'll introduce her to a new playmate." The girl suddenly spoke, and as her palm opened, a deep red rose emerged from her palm.
Du Yu's eyes immediately lit up!
A Wood and Fire Dual-type Demon Pet, Rose Spirit?
My god! This girl not only has her own Demon Soldier but even the Demon Pet wasn't issued by the school?
Not wanting a Demon Soldier is understandable, after all, the school's issued ones are lower-grade goods.
But the Demon Pets issued by the Demon Spirit Academy are carefully selected and full of potential! This girl...
The deep red rosebud is about the size of a baseball, with big eyes, the color of the pupils close to the rose itself, and not easily noticeable.
It has no stem; instead, there are two small feet wrapped in petals.
Cute and gorgeous coexist.
"Pop~" A subtle sound came from the small mouth of the Rose Spirit, very interesting.
"Huh?" Little Fire Fox curiously leaned its head forward, sniffing at the faint fragrance.
"Hehe~" The girl chuckled, putting the rose blossom into Little Fire Fox's embrace.
After a moment of hesitation, Du Yu spoke, "I still don't know your name."
"Lin Shiyi."
"A very beautiful name." Du Yu did an impromptu teaching, thinking this is the correct way to use the word "beautiful."
Lin Shiyi didn't know Du Yu's little thoughts; at this moment, she was playful, placing the Rose Spirit on Little Fire Fox's head, admiring it for a while before looking over at Du Yu.
"Are you a local of Ancient Pine Tower?"
Du Yu: "Yes."
Lin Shiyi nodded knowingly, understanding that this fellow student probably wasn't very focused on the world of Demon Tamers before awakening.
The Lin Family in Ancient Pine Tower City, a legitimate prominent family of Demon Taming, is very renowned.
Perhaps the surname Lin is quite common, but the combination of a Lin surname and a Rose Spirit already indicates the girl's family background.
Earlier, when Lin Shiyi boarded the school bus, Teacher Gong Cheng also confirmed the girl's choice repeatedly.
After all, she could receive higher quality private tutoring at home, seemingly having no reason to come to this training class.
Lin Shiyi no longer spoke, and Du Yu didn't want to make an unwelcome situation for himself either.
When passing by the student formation, he waved at Li Mengnan, indicating the suitcase belonging to her in his hand before walking into the old dormitory.
This scene made Li Mengnan's anger spike! Just a few minutes? Du Yu was already walking with another pretty girl?
Even more infuriating is that the Little Fire Fox that belonged to her was now nestled in that girl's arms, with a rose blossom on its head?
"Damn it!" Li Mengnan gritted her teeth, and under her mother's strict management, having no experience in romantic feelings, she tasted the feeling of betrayal for the first time!
And it was from a fox!
"You! What are you doing? Learned it?" Gong Cheng suddenly shouted harshly, scaring Li Mengnan enough to retract her head, urgently mobilizing the elemental Demon Breath within her body.
However, the Wind, Fire, and Thunder elements within her body were running around chaotically, completely disorganized, making it incredibly difficult to concentrate them in her forehead.
Yesterday, she had already looked up the method for the Demon Disciple Contract online but failed to learn it herself, thinking that when she got to school, the teacher would help her resolve the difficulty.
Now, as it turns out, she's stuck with such a fierce teacher!
The more Li Mengnan thought, the angrier she got. Her hand gripping the Black Wind Sword suddenly felt a gentle breeze swirling from her feet, and the Black Wind Sword's blade subtly began to tremble...
...
While Li Mengnan was still fuming over there, Du Yu had already chosen a double room at the end of the west side of the corridor.
Du Yu didn't clean the room, remembering Instructor Gong's requirements, he quickly ran out of the old dormitory holding Little Fire Fox and headed straight for the northeast part of the playground.
Originally thinking he was already quite fast, he didn't expect to be the last one from the group of five to arrive.
"Huh~" Little Fire Fox, who had been a bit saddened by the separation, suddenly perked up upon seeing Miss Lin Shiyi.
This time, however, Du Yu was more cautious, gripping Little Fire Fox tightly without letting go.
Going?
Ha, where do you think you're going, my beloved!
Lin Shiyi looked at Little Fire Fox with a smile, even winking playfully at her.
"Mortal-level Demon Pets can learn 1 to 2 types of Demon Skills." Suddenly, a deep voice came from behind Du Yu, and a massive shadow enveloped him.
"Gulp." Du Yu's throat wobbled, and he didn't dare to move an inch.
Gong Cheng stood behind Du Yu, his tall and burly body allowing him to show half his face.
He glanced over the four students facing him: "The canteen is on the east side of the dormitory building, where your lunch is prepared, along with special meals for your Demon Pets.
Once your Demon Pets have learned one Demon Skill, you can go eat. Lin Shiyi."
The girl appeared well-behaved: "Teacher."
Gong Cheng: "Has your Rose Spirit learned any Demon Skills yet?"
Lin Shiyi shook her head: "Not yet, it's a newborn cub. I only signed the contract with it last night."
Gong Cheng nodded: "Alright, wait for a moment."
As he spoke, Gong Cheng took out a stack of sticky notes from his pocket, tore one off, and reached around Du Yu's side, patting it against Du Yu's chest.
"Uh." Du Yu grimaced, and as soon as Gong Cheng let go, he hurriedly caught the paper slipping down from his chest.
The small piece of paper was densely packed with tiny printed text, perfect for sneaking a peek during exams.
In the section for Fire-type Demon Pets, Du Yu found the information on Little Fire Fox.
"Little Fire Fox, Fire-type Demon Beast.
Officially recommended Demon Skills:
1. Heroic Bronze: Spark Splash - Gather flames in the mouth, then spray a fireball at the target area. The fireball bursts upon contact, burning the enemy.
2. Heroic Bronze: Fire Cloud Tail - Gather flames in the large tail, then swing the tail to spread layers of fire mist, hiding oneself while confusing and intimidating your enemy.
Demon Skill Levels: 1 Heroic Bronze, 2 Unyielding Silver, 3 Glory Gold, 4 Xuan Platinum, 5 Cold Jade, 6 Eternal Diamond, 7 Shimmering Starlight.
Note: Even the lowest Copper-level Demon Skill, theoretically, can advance to a Starlight Level Demon Skill.
May all of you and your beloved pets train diligently, hone your skills, and continuously improve your Demon Skill Level to reach new heights!"
Du Yu seriously reviewed it multiple times. It was no different from the online encyclopedia, just with some encouraging words added.
He didn't take these words seriously, as the information online was comprehensive and the world records clearly stated: The current highest level for Spark Splash is Cold Jade.
Countless Demon Pets achieved this record, rather than being rare and valuable.
Countless Fire-type Demon Pets, no matter how hard they try, cannot progress further. Thus, it can be deduced that the Cold Jade Level is likely the ultimate level for the Demon Skill: Spark Splash.
After putting down the note, Du Yu noticed that Teacher Gong had already left with Lin Shiyi.
The remaining students exchanged glances.
Four people, three types of Demon Pets, besides Du Yu's Little Fire Fox, there were two Wolf Lake Dogs and one Little Earth Rhinoceros.
It's reasonable to see tiny little foxes and puppies, but such a small dark brown rhinoceros is indeed dreamy.
However, no matter how dreamy the other Demon Pets are, they cannot shake the position of the Wolf Lake Dog clan in the hearts of the Great Xia people.
Two out of the four have Wolf Lake Dogs, which is the best proof.
The violent organs of Great Xia all use Wolf Lake Dogs, but being common doesn't mean cheap; instead, it's the best testament to their power!
"Let's start our training, everyone, keep up the good work." As the class monitor, Du Yu casually encouraged them before walking toward the more distant archery target.
Little Fire Fox was amusing, showing no signs of reluctance.
Even though Lin Shiyi left with Instructor Gong, there was still a girl among the remaining students.
But Little Fire Fox showed no intention of settling in or trying out a new bed.
So...a beauty detector?
Du Yu came to the worn-out archery target, knelt down, and placed Little Fire Fox on the yellow earth, "You little flirt, I've got a perfect name for you."
"Ying?" Little Fire Fox lifted its tiny head, eyes lively, nuzzling Du Yu's fingers affectionately.
When there were no pretty ladies around, Little Fire Fox was so devoted and endearingly clingy...
Du Yu pinched her big tail, "From now on, I'll call you Xiaoyan."
"Ying~"
"Grow up quickly! Xiaoyan, let's discover more beautiful ladies!"
"Ying!"
"Great! Now, use Spark Splash!"
Little Fire Fox blinked, although it never quite understood Du Yu, it sensed a faint hint through the contract.
Is it asking me to use a Demon Skill?
It's really tough for a fox...
Little Fire Fox froze for a moment, unable to muster even a spark.
After a few seconds, she turned to grab her big tail, performing a spin on the spot for Du Yu.
"Hehe~" In the mind, Little Fen Yang's laughter resounded.
