Liu Yi: "It's called Silver Snow Fox. 'Silver' as in the color silver. It's only one character different from Snow-Drinking Fox."
Hearing Auntie Chen's praise, Ziyue proudly lifted her head, twirling around in front of the mirror, admiring her current appearance.
Her two tails swayed with her movements, the silver gleam at their tips tracing paths in the air.
Suddenly, Ziyue seemed to remember something and quickly ran off.
"What's she going to do?" Auntie Chen asked curiously.
Liu Yi smiled. "She's probably going to get the necklace Fluffy Butler gave her last night."
Sure enough, Ziyue soon returned, carrying the ice crystal necklace in her mouth.
She placed the necklace at Liu Yi's feet, looking at her expectantly.
"Bingbing!"
Liu Yi picked up the necklace and immediately noticed a problem.
Ziyue had grown larger after her evolution, and the necklace, which had fit perfectly before, now wouldn't go on at all.
"The necklace is too small."
Liu Yi tried to put the necklace around Ziyue's neck, but indeed, it wouldn't even go halfway.
"Bingbing..."
Ziyue's ears immediately drooped, and she let out a mournful cry.
"Oh, what's the big deal?" Auntie Chen walked over, taking the necklace from Liu Yi's hand. "We can just get a longer chain. The ice crystal pendant itself is still usable."
"Fluffy!"
Fluffy Butler floated over, gently nuzzling Ziyue's cheek in comfort.
"Quan Quan!"
The Boxing Bunny also waved its boxing gloves, indicating that the necklace could definitely be 'fixed'!
Hearing that she still had a chance to wear a beautiful necklace, Ziyue immediately perked up again.
"Alright, I'll go replace the chain this afternoon," Auntie Chen said, putting the necklace away. "For now, let's try the Little Ziyue Cake I successfully made last night. It was originally to celebrate your championship, but now we can celebrate Ziyue's successful evolution too!"
"Little Ziyue Cake?"
Liu Yi was a bit puzzled.
Then she saw Auntie Chen bring out a cake with the appearance of the Ice Fox Ziyue on top.
Liu Yi:!
Ziyue saw her former appearance on the cake and couldn't help but run over, circling the cake twice.
"Bingbing!"
She gently tapped the cake base with a front paw, then quickly pulled it back. Her current claws were much sharper than before; she couldn't ruin 'herself'.
Liu Yi pulled out her phone and captured a picture of the Ice Fox Ziyue-shaped cake alongside the evolved Silver Snow Fox Ziyue.
In the photo, Ziyue tilted her head, curiously examining 'herself' on the cake, looking very amused.
"Come, let's cut the cake first."
Auntie Chen took out a cake knife and directly separated the entire little Ziyue from the top, placing it on Ziyue's exclusive plate: "This is for Ziyue."
She then divided the rest of the cake equally among Liu Yi, Fluffy Butler, the Boxing Bunny, and herself.
While eating cake, Auntie Chen suddenly remembered something: "Oh, Xiao Yi, now that Ziyue has evolved, when do you plan to go to the Beast Tamer Association to update her registration information?"
"And you can also get your Junior Beast Tamer certification at the same time."
Liu Yi put down her fork and thought for a moment. "No rush for now. There are only a few days left until school starts, so I'll let Ziyue adapt to her energy state and new skills these next few days."
She looked at Ziyue, who was diligently licking her plate. "After the school opening ceremony on September 1st, I plan to go to the Myriad Realm Secret Realm to contract my second pet."
"Once I have a second pet, I'll go to the Beast Tamer Association to register, update, and certify everything together."
Auntie Chen nodded. "That's a good idea; it saves an extra trip."
"Ding-dong—"
The doorbell suddenly rang, interrupting Liu Yi and Auntie Chen's conversation.
Fluffy Butler immediately floated towards the door. The monitor showed several Giant Guards in work uniforms standing outside, each carrying several large packages.
Fluffy Butler opened the door and let out a sound.
"Fluffy?"
What's wrong?
"Giant, Giant."
The leading Giant Guard, wearing a work hat and holding an electronic signature pad and a card, indicated that this was a delivery for their home, requiring installation in the backyard training ground.
"Fluffy."
Please wait.
Fluffy Butler quickly called Auntie Chen over.
Auntie Chen walked over, took the signature pad and card, looked at them, and understood.
She signed the pad and then said, "Tuanzi, take them to the backyard."
"Fluffy."
Fluffy Butler chirped at the Giant Guards, indicating for them to follow.
The Giant Guards then followed Fluffy Butler in an orderly fashion to the backyard training ground.
Auntie Chen handed the card to Liu Yi, who took it and saw familiar handwriting:
【Dear Xiao Bao: Congratulations on reaching 20% development progress in your Beast Taming Space! This ecological training target system is our gift to you. It's equipped with the latest terminal system, with various built-in training target movement trajectories that you can also customize. Some skill's additional statuses can also take effect on this ecological training target and be displayed on the terminal. We all agree this should be a gift you'll like, right?!】
Liu Yi smiled knowingly. Although it wasn't signed, she knew who had written it.
She put the card away and, along with Ziyue and Auntie Chen, went to the backyard training ground.
The Giant Guards had already disassembled the original metal training targets and set them aside, beginning to install the ecological training targets and connect them to the terminal already set up next to the training ground.
After the installation was complete, the Giant Guards politely took their leave.
Auntie Chen also took Fluffy Butler and the Boxing Bunny back into the house, leaving the space to Liu Yi and Ziyue.
Liu Yi walked to the terminal and said to Ziyue, "Ziyue, let's try Frozen Bite first."
Ziyue nodded, her eyes instantly sharpening.
She lowered her body, then lunged fiercely towards an ecological training target.
The moment she approached, her teeth were covered in a layer of ice, and she bit hard into the ecological training target.
With a "crack," a layer of frost immediately formed on the ecological training target, with faint, tiny cracks visible within the frost.
Liu Yi looked at the information displayed on the terminal:
【No. 4 Ecological Training Target: Detected Skill: Frozen Bite Hit Rate: 100% Additional Status: [Frostbite]】
Liu Yi: ......
OK.
Ziyue's luck was as good as ever; the [Frostbite] status, which currently had a 10% chance to activate, was triggered on her very first use of Frozen Bite.
Liu Yi: "Very good. Next, let's try Frost Path."
Ziyue retreated a short distance. She lightly tapped the ground with her front paw, and an ice-blue path immediately extended from her feet, reaching the No. 4 ecological training target.
Tiny ice crystals floated along the path, sparkling in the sunlight.
Ziyue stepped onto the Frost Path, and her speed noticeably increased.
Liu Yi controlled the No. 4 ecological training target to move along the Frost Path, and the terminal then displayed the information:
【No. 4 Ecological Training Target: Detected Skill: Frost Path Hit Rate: / Additional Status: Slowed by 15%】
Liu Yi nodded. "Finally, let's try Snowfall."
Rate on N.U.
