Just after making his selection, a tingling sensation swept through Vincent Wolf’s entire body, he felt some form of transformation happening to him.

It was as if he had broken free from some bond, feeling both relaxed and at ease, each movement of his body gave him the illusion that he could shatter the void with a single punch.

Vincent was still in the courtyard, he had not gone back to his room.

He looked at the giant rock that weighed several tons confidently, embracing it and attempting to lift it…

But he couldn’t lift it.

Vincent quietly let go, then moved to a rock about half the size, this time he managed to lift it up.

“This trait doesn’t seem so powerful! I saw Dragon Town lift that stone quite easily.”

However, Vincent was just complaining, he certainly did not expect this blue trait to grant him, a weakling, the strength to compare with a high-level commander dragon pet beast overnight.

The reason he chose this trait was not to simply enhance his strength, Vincent was interested in the ability to boost his body’s toughness.

Vincent took out a small dagger from his Space Bracelet, pointing it at his own arm.

After hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and lightly cut his arm, a white mark immediately appeared on his arm.

“It didn’t cut through!”

Vincent was somewhat surprised, considering his current strength, his light cut was equivalent to his previous exertion during his Apprentice Beast Master days, it should have been enough to cut through cowhide.

He was prepared to get injured, but he did not expect that his skin wouldn’t even be scratched.

Vincent then proceeded to experiment for some time and found that not only had his strength increased substantially, his stamina and body toughness had also greatly improved.

“It’s exactly as I thought.”

The main reason why Vincent had given up on the opportunity to upgrade Barry to the High-level Extraordinary tier, was because he saw the leveling as the least valuable thing. A single simulation could easily maximize his level.

On the other hand, Vincent appreciated the practicality of the Dragon Tiger Body.

Whether it was to save himself during the upcoming big battle, or to provide stamina during simulations, it was very good.

Especially the description of the Ancient Simulation which required a large amount of stamina, it made Vincent a bit hesitant to try freely, even if he could now halve the stamina consumed in the simulation, it was still too risky.

Moreover, having enhanced his body’s toughness, now if he were to alter the internal flow of energy, he should not get injured easily.

Thinking this far, Vincent resumed his seated position and began to meditate, observing the flow of energy within his body.

Vincent kept attempting to use various skills, comparing them to the energy flow he remembered when he employed those skills in his Slime form.

Vincent drew a few rough diagrams on the ground, repeatedly casting the skills while studying those diagrams.

Vincent faintly felt he was starting to see a pattern, but when he tried to inspect it further, he found that it wasn’t so.

“Perhaps it’s because the skills I can currently use are too few, or it could be because my proficiency in these skills isn’t enough.”

After trying for an hour, Vincent realised he couldn’t create new skills just yet, it was too early for him.

However, these one to two hours were not wasted. After his exploration, he gained a clear understanding of these skills, and his understanding of their operational principles greatly deepened.

Simply put, skills are the memory and techniques awakened in one’s bloodline through learning and training.

Innate skills are in-depth skills etched in the bloodline. Increasing the growth level, elevating the Species Level, evolving into a high-level form, all these can easily awaken corresponding innate skills in a pet beast.

Skill is akin to human potential.

Everyone has the potential to become a movie star, an artist, or a Nobel laureate, but not everyone can achieve that.

It takes continuous practice and exercise for a pet beast to awaken a skill. Simultaneously, the rise of skill proficiency requires the pet beast to persist unremittingly.

So it’s very difficult for Vincent to create new skills just by himself, as these skills have been passed down through countless years and are already mature.

However, making minor changes is certainly feasible.

Previously Barry could use the Power of Life and Death, but when Vincent tried, he found that he didn’t have this ability. But now, after researching, he found that by infusing his energy of Death and Life Power into the release of his skill, he could imbue the skill with corresponding special effects. “Now that everything is ready, the plan can begin.”

Vincent swiftly changed his train of thoughts, took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

“Grandpa Winter, I have a favor to ask, is the favor that you mentioned earlier still applicable?”

Sunday afternoon.

Inside Clean Base.

Many civilian beast-controlling masters and members of the Beastmaster Mercenary Group lined up in front of the Secret Realm Gate.

Quite a few of them were grumbling to their companions.

“What the hell is going on with our Beast Tamer Association, calling us back for nothing?”

“I heard we had a fugitive in here, and they intend to catch him.”

“Isn’t that hilarious? A fugitive would run away, not wait to get caught.”

“Exactly, I reckon the beastmasters in the Beast Tamer Association are just goofing-off. They should let me do it, I assure you, I can get the job done.”

“Hahaha, you tease!”

At the end of these queues, there were a few men with gloomy looks. They deferentially asked a middle-aged man with a shadowy face: “Sir, could this be a human plot?”

The middle-aged man considered for a moment.

“Regardless of whether it’s a plot, we need to take this opportunity to get out.”

“If we can’t get out this time, the departure of these humans will leave us exposed and conspicuously vulnerable in this base.”

“If we exposed our identity now, since all our preparations are not yet complete, the end result would be the annihilation of us all by the two Grandmasters in the base.”

“If we left the base now, we wouldn’t be able to execute the plan, resulting in mission failure. This outcome would not be much better than death in any way.”

As they were discussing, the queue had moved up to them.

The men exchanged glances and stepped into the Secret Realm Gate one after another.

“That’s them! Get them!”

After a big shout, the men sensed trouble but did not have time to use defense skills.

Boom! Bang! Clang! Thump!

A fat bear, a long sword, an elf, a giant.

“You outnumber us!”

The last thought in their minds as they were knocked unconscious was this singular phrase..
