Chapter 156: What? I’m Still Very Talented In Beast Taming (2)

Zhou Jing held back his disdain and smiled as he opened his palm.

“That’s more like it. Let’s shake hands and be good friends.”

The hyena looked at the proffered palm, trying its best to understand.

After thinking for a few seconds, it turned around and prepared to poop on Zhou Jing’s hand to provide food for him.

Zhou Jing: “…”

You MF! Demon, take this palm of mine!

Pak!

“Wuwuwu!”

Three seconds later, the hyena returned to its original sitting position. It trembled as it squatted in front of Zhou Jing, a large tuft of fur missing from its head.

“Claw.” Zhou Jing’s smile remained unchanged, but the veins on his forehead bulged.

The hyena was lost in thought again.

In the end, its survival instinct overcame its desire to bite Zhou Jing. It raised its claws hesitantly and obediently placed them in Zhou Jing’s palm.

At this moment, the interface reacted.

[Do you want to designate this beast as a pet?]

“Let’s accept it and see.” Zhou Jing did not hesitate.

In any case, he could change pets, so he decided to make do with this first.

[Designation success… Current number of pets: 1/1]

[Pet: Black Spotted Hyena]

[Talent: Eating Carrion, Sharp Nose]

[Advantages: Teeth, Nose, Endurance]

[Skills: Bite Lv3, Rectal Disembowelment Lv3]

[Cultivation Potential: Extremely low]

[Cultivation Growth: 0]

[Rapport: 6/100]

[Training Level: 0/5]

[Total combat power: First Order]

“It’s out.” Zhou Jing was delighted. He carefully scrutinized the pet interface, and he quickly understood the process.

As the name suggested, there was no need to say much about talent. As for its advantages, it was the outstanding body parts and the direction of expertise it could grow in. If one trained in these directions, they could increase the level of the relevant skills or learn new skills.

[Cultivation Potential] represented the value and rarity of this creature, as well as the efficiency of raising its cultivation.

[Cultivation Growth] was increased through daily training, fighting, killing enemies, and other activities. It was equivalent to general experience points that could be used to increase the level of skills, strengthen its advantage, improve a certain talent, and so on. It was one of the most important sections to take note of.

The [Rapport] tab was similar to favorability. The maximum was 100 points. The higher the rapport, the more cooperative the pet. It would be able to execute more complicated instructions and train more efficiently.

The [Training Level] indicated the “personal level” of a pet. The higher this level, the stronger the pet’s basic attributes… The pet’s specific attributes were not displayed on the interface. Instead, it was replaced by the tab [Total Combat Power]. It calculated skills, talent, attributes, and other factors to determine the current combat strength of the pet.

The level of a pet’s total combat power was the same as the Order of an ordinary person’s attributes. The Black-Spotted Hyena’s comprehensive combat power was in the First Order, which meant that its combat power did not exceed the level of a person whose attributes were in the First Order.

“It’s not impossible to see the exact value. I just need to spend 10 Astral Points to detect it.”

Zhou Jing nodded to himself. He had basically figured out the mechanism of the [Pet Function].

He then sized up the hyena and realized that after being designated as a pet, the hyena was no longer restless to escape, but it still did not dare to look at him directly.

It was probably because they did not have much rapport at the moment.

“Ahem, it’s a little ugly, but I’ll make do with it for the time being. I’ll call you Little Black… Uh, Little Black #1. I feel that you won’t live long.”

Zhou Jing touched his chin and casually came up with a name.

He got up and took a few steps forward before turning around. He saw that Little Black #1 was following him hesitantly, albeit looking scared.

“Heh, this is really you beginning the life of a dog.”

Seeing that his pet would follow him, Zhou Jing stopped paying attention and continued on his way.

After walking for a while, the man and dog quickly arrived at the edge of the wilderness. The main road was in sight, and they could reach the Royal City of Tarn if they followed it.

Zhou Jing was about to walk onto the main road when he heard the sound of grass rustling once more.

Swish swish swish…

He looked toward the source of the sound. It seemed that three Black Spotted Hyenas wandering nearby had sensed his scent and rushed over.

“No way, is the environment in the distant suburbs of the capital so bad now? Or did the hyenas just migrate?”

The corners of Zhou Jing’s mouth twitched, and he turned to face the enemy.

Soon, the three hyenas stopped not far away and confronted Zhou Jing from afar. They circled around and growled.

Little Black #1 seemed to have been provoked as well. It took a few steps forward and stood in front of Zhou Jing, letting out a threatening roar at the three enemies.

The three hyenas stopped barking, dumbfounded.

… What’s going on? We’re all hyenas. Why are you growling at us instead?

Seeing this, Zhou Jing’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Right, pets seemed to be able to obtain experience when they killed enemies.

“I choose you, Little Black #1! One against three!”

Zhou Jing casually pointed at the three hyenas in high spirits.

Little Black #1 could not help but turn to look at Zhou Jing.

Although it was only a dog, its eyes revealed human-like disbelief, as if it was saying, “You serious, bro?”

At this moment, a hyena on the side saw the flaw it revealed and charged forward.

“Here it comes, Little Black #1, use tackle!”

“What tackle? Why do I not know how to do it?!”

Little Black #1 was in a daze when it suddenly felt its body lighten. Zhou Jing had grabbed him by the waist.

Before its dog brain could think carefully, it realized that it had been thrown by a huge force.

Bam!

The two dogs collided, and the result was that one died and one was injured.

[Your pet has killed an enemy. Obtained 2 Growth Points.]

“It works!”

Zhou Jing’s eyes lit up.

He ran to Little Black #1, who was struggling to stand up and grabbed its leg without a word.

“Wuwuwu!”

What! Are! You! Trying! To! Do!
