Chapter 3: Ten-Pull Draws an Immortal Grade, a Three-Tailed Spirit Fox

Lu Zheng first glanced at his attribute panel.

【Character: Lu Zheng】

Eyes closed, ten-pull draw! He had ten points of mana, exactly enough to cast Summoning Art ten times.

【Consumed 1 point of mana, successfully activated skill Summoning Art, congratulations on obtaining the one-star ordinary beast pet 'Fire Bunny Rabbit'】×3【Consumed 1 point of mana, successfully activated skill Summoning Art, congratulations on obtaining the one-star ordinary beast pet 'Black-Horned Rat'】×2【Consumed 1 point of mana, successfully activated skill Summoning Art, congratulations on obtaining the one-star ordinary beast pet 'Big-Headed Snake'】×2【Consumed 1 point of mana, successfully activated skill Summoning Art, congratulations on obtaining the one-star ordinary beast pet 'Iron-Shell Turtle'】×2【Consumed 1 point of mana, successfully activated skill Summoning Art, congratulations on obtaining the five-star immortal-grade spirit pet 'Three-Tailed Spirit Fox'】×1 The quality of summoned beasts, from lowest to highest, was divided into five major tiers: ordinary beast pet, elite beast pet, rare beast pet, immortal-grade spirit pet, and legendary divine pet, each further subdivided into five minor ranks from one-star to five-star, making a total of twenty-five levels.

Spirit pets of different qualities had different growth rates and growth limits. For example, a one-star ordinary beast pet could grow to at most level ten and could not evolve; whereas a five-star ordinary beast pet could grow to level twenty and could undergo one metamorphic evolution to gain higher growth potential.

The first nine were all one-star, the most trash beast pets—he never expected the last one to actually be a five-star immortal-grade spirit pet!

Lu Zheng was so excited he stood straight up from the bed.

A ten-pull drawing an immortal grade—so satisfying!

He hurriedly clicked open this spirit pet's information page.

【Summoned Beast: Unnamed】

【Race: Three-Tailed Spirit Fox】

【Quality: Five-Star Immortal-Grade Spirit Pet】

【Level: LV. 1 (0.00%)】

【HP: 1000/1000】

【Mana: 100/100】

【Strength: 10】

【Agility: 20】

【Spirit: 20】

【Constitution: 10】

【Skills: Triple Clone, Charm, Spirit Flash Hundred Claws, Tail Spirit Bullet, Sky Flight, Human Transformation】

Truly worthy of being an immortal-grade spirit pet—these base attributes completely crushed his own! And it actually came with six built-in skills, so cool! Wait—Human Transformation!?

Lu Zheng subconsciously gave it a tap, and the next moment, a streak of flowing light landed before the bed, followed immediately by a girl appearing in its place, about one hundred and fifty centimeters tall, wearing a plain-colored long dress, with a pair of fox ears growing on top of her head, and three tails behind her that were the same pale pink as her ears.

This was—a beast-eared girl!? "Master!"

The little girl let out a soft, sweet voice, suddenly covering her eyes with both hands, but still peeking through the gaps between her fingers, looking somewhat shy.

Lu Zheng looked down—holy crap! He was only wearing a pair of underpants.

He quickly dove into the blanket.

At this moment, seemingly having seen his action, the little girl followed suit and dove into his blanket too.

Startled, Lu Zheng quickly shouted, "Stop!"

His shout was quite loud, startling his mother Fang Ya, who was making breakfast outside, into pushing the door open and rushing in, still muttering.

"What's wrong, making a fuss first thing in the morning?!" But when she saw the little fox timidly poking a head out from Lu Zheng's blanket, she couldn't help but scream as well.

"Lu Zheng!!"

Seeing the situation, Lu Zheng scrambled to the doorway, shut the door, dropped to his knees, and hugged Fang Ya's thigh, trying to awaken her maternal love.

"Mom! Let me explain!!"

A moment later, Lu Zheng watched his mother continuously picking up food for the little fox and asked in confusion, "Mom, can a summoned beast sit at the table and eat?"

Fang Ya glared at Lu Zheng and scolded, "Eat your food! It's not like you spent money on the rice, what are you heartbroken over!"

Lu Zheng stared blankly, looking at the little fox who had already learned to use chopsticks, whose three tails were swinging up and down at different amplitudes due to eating rice too vigorously, as information about the Human Transformation skill surfaced in his mind.

【Human Transformation: The summoned beast transforms into human form and can learn and master human skills and spells】

In other words, many skill scrolls could be learned by her, thereby gaining even more powerful combat skills! Truly worthy of a five-star immortal-grade spirit pet—the growth potential was simply too high.

"Hey, what's her name?"

Fang Ya looked at Lu Zheng and asked.

Hearing this, Lu Zheng couldn't help but show a look of resentment, glancing at the old man Lu Yuantu, who sat silently to the side like a transparent person, wishing he'd keep his wife in check—she wasn't even calling her son by name anymore!

Receiving no help, Lu Zheng sighed and thought for a moment.

"Let's call her Tushan Jiaojiao!"

The little fox, who had just finished her rice, immediately jumped up with joy upon hearing this and laughed:

"I'm called Tushan Jiaojiao, I have a name now!"

Saying that, she pounced over and lay down in Lu Zheng's arms.

She wiggled left and right to show how happy she was, but those three tails nearly slapped Lu Zheng in the face several times; he quickly grabbed them all, and the little fox instantly shuddered and went completely still.

Seeing this, Fang Ya immediately scolded Lu Zheng:

"You are not allowed to bully Jiaojiao!"

Lu Zheng was dumbfounded — he hadn't done anything, so how had he bullied her? Besides, she was a summoned beast, and he was her own biological son! Helpless, Lu Zheng could only sigh that women were indeed visual creatures, siding with whoever looked good.

Just then the doorbell rang. Lu Zheng quickly stowed the little fox directly into his summoning slot, went to the door, and opened it — only to see Yang Dong and Mu Yunlan standing outside.

The moment Yang Dong saw Lu Zheng, he said at once:

"Brother Lu, have you eaten yet? Let's hurry and go grind levels. Counting it exactly, there are still ninety-nine days until the National Professional Exam. Let's go level up fast and aim for a good result. I've already talked it over with my dad — he'll take us leveling in a bit!"

But Lu Zheng thought of his own special circumstances and felt that before the little fox was properly trained, he couldn't let her meet anyone else, or his lifelong reputation would be ruined.

So he shook his head and said, "Go with Uncle Yang yourself! I haven't gotten familiar with my summoned beast yet. I'd only be a burden if I went. Let's grind levels together after a while."

Yang Dong heard this and thought it over briefly, feeling that what Lu Zheng said made some sense. Considering that the other party had only awakened an ordinary class and must be feeling some psychological gap, he needed time to ease into it. He couldn't help but nod and say:

"Alright then, Brother Lu, but you'd better get familiar fast — I'm counting on you to carry me! Oh right, that beginner experience bonus skill book I promised you — I'm still holding it for you!"

After saying that, his eyes glanced meaningfully between Lu Zheng and Mu Yunlan.

"You two chat! I'm heading off first!"

Lu Zheng waved at him, then looked at Mu Yunlan and asked:

"What business does Class President have with me?"

Mu Yunlan was a little nervous. Even though she had spent the whole night rehearsing the conversation for this morning, now facing Lu Zheng's burning gaze, she only managed to say one sentence.

"I'll be waiting for you at the exam arena!"

After saying that, she turned and walked away, leaving behind a cool silhouette.

Hearing this, Lu Zheng couldn't help but laugh, and said to her retreating back:

"Do your best, my rival!"

Mu Yunlan's footsteps paused, and the corners of her mouth curved up in a lovely arc as she gradually walked away.
