Lilium, that's the scientific name in the world of spirit beast research.
However, Lin Chuan still felt that the folk name, fairy spirit flower, was more vivid and pleasant to hear.
He took out the glass jar containing the fairy spirit flower, but didn't open it, because if he did, its shelf life would start to deplete.
Holding it in his hand, Lin Chuan observed it carefully.
Putting everything else aside, its appearance was truly beautiful.
Of course, the crucial part was its effects.
Firstly, it aids growth; secondly, it helps in skill comprehension; and thirdly, it breaks through the upper limit of bloodline quality.
Tsk, Lin Chuan clicked his tongue, a bit displeased.
If other new Beast Masters received a similar starter pack, they would surely go crazy with joy, ecstatic.
The item was indeed excellent, living up to the Beastmaster Association's reputation for generosity and thoughtfulness, but for Lin Chuan, it was just so-so, because the three abilities of the fairy spirit flower were almost entirely covered by his own circumstances.
Firstly, regarding auxiliary growth, except for legendary mythical creatures, or spirit beasts with heaven-defying bloodlines like dragons, phoenixes, or Qilins, ordinary spirit beasts have a limit to their growth rate.
Even if a Beast Master possesses exceptionally high Beast Master talent, be it fifth, sixth, or even seventh tier, and uses the best resources for assistance, it's impossible to break through this limit.
Flower Leaf Leaf, as a spirit beast of mid-tier Soldier-grade bloodline, combined with nutrient soil, nutrient water, the Spiritual Wood Heart, and proficient Photosynthesis, its growth rate, based on the research data accumulated by his old man Lin Xuédòng over 30 years, had almost reached its limit. Sakura would definitely catch up in the next few days.
Therefore, the first effect of the fairy spirit flower was useless to him.
As for the second effect, skill comprehension.
This was even more regrettable; his Reincarnation of Inheritance could achieve 100% learning, completely eliminating the need to rely on probability, luck, or a spirit beast's comprehension like with the fairy spirit flower.
Finally, breaking through the bloodline quality limit.
Speaking of this, it's necessary to mention another effect of his Reincarnation.
Reincarnation of Rebirth, he hadn't even used this talent effect yet.
If Reincarnation of Inheritance was already so exaggerated, how could the effect of Reincarnation of Rebirth be bad?
After Reincarnation of Rebirth, the degree of breaking through the bloodline quality limit would certainly be higher than using Lilium, but currently, Lin Chuan couldn't use Reincarnation of Rebirth yet.
Firstly, his spiritual power was insufficient. Lin Chuan had a vague intuition that he would only have enough spiritual power to use Reincarnation of Rebirth after his Beast Master level reached 10 and he broke through to Tier 1.
Secondly, neither Flower Leaf Leaf nor Sakura had grown to a suitable level for Reincarnation of Rebirth.
This is like some transmigration novels: would an expert who has thoroughly studied history and mastered various scientific and folk knowledge achieve greater success after transmigration, or would a toddler who has just learned to walk achieve greater success after transmigration?
Obviously, it's the former!
Without some accumulation, even if one transmigrates, the final achievements will be limited.
Similarly, Lin Chuan didn't require Flower Leaf Leaf and Sakura to reach their absolute limit before undergoing Reincarnation of Rebirth, but they at least needed to grow to a certain height and have sufficient accumulation before undergoing Reincarnation of Rebirth.
At that time, the effects of Reincarnation of Rebirth would be significant, allowing them to break through to a higher bloodline limit, perhaps even taking a big leap from mid-tier Soldier-grade to mid-tier or even high-tier General-grade in one go?
With such a foundation, and then evolving into Flower Spirit, and finally Flower Spirit Immortal, they would probably be no weaker than those Lord-grade or King-grade spirit beasts.
Getting back to the main topic.
For Lin Chuan, this fairy spirit flower was actually a bit of a mixed blessing.
If possible, Lin Chuan would rather exchange this fairy spirit flower directly for an equivalent amount of star rock coin.
Of course, Lin Chuan was just thinking about it; money could be earned, but the fairy spirit flower was a high-level resource that couldn't be easily bought even with money.
Yes, that's right, the fairy spirit flower was precisely the kind of restricted resource that could only be purchased with Professional Beastmaster authority!
Although the fairy spirit flower was a bit of a mixed blessing, it wasn't absolutely useless to Lin Chuan.
Sweet Aroma, Aromatic Therapy, Rosemary Illusion Incense, these three probabilistic comprehension skills, Lin Chuan estimated that he could probably use his Reincarnation of Inheritance talent to add points for Flower Leaf Leaf and Sakura to learn them.
In other words, for him, this fairy spirit flower was also a skill material, a skill book, and a thick, advanced skill book at that!
It contained at least the three skills: Sweet Aroma, Aromatic Therapy, and Rosemary Illusion Incense. As for whether there were other skills, Lin Chuan didn't know.
Lin Chuan put the glass jar away, planning to wait two more days to see.
Once Sakura also reached Tier 1 in a few days, he would see if he could discover Sakura's area of expertise, just like Flower Leaf Leaf excelled in energy manipulation. If so, he would adjust the cultivation details accordingly, while the general direction would remain unchanged for now.
At the same time, Lin Chuan also planned to try researching the fairy spirit flower in these two days.
Since the fairy spirit flower could be crushed and used as flower fertilizer, then could its petals be separated one by one, isolating the skills contained within them? This would surely make the process of inheritance much easier!
If the entire fairy spirit flower were used as a skill material for inheritance, Lin Chuan felt that with his current spiritual power, he would most likely not be able to withstand the consumption. At that time, it probably wouldn't just make him dizzy, but would smash his head open, turning him into a vegetable on the spot.
...
The sun set, and night fell.
As Lin Chuan called a halt, Flower Leaf Leaf and Sakura ended their cultivation for the day.
Lin Chuan carefully checked the status of the two little ones.
Flower Leaf Leaf, having broken through to Tier 1, had seen a comprehensive improvement in both physical fitness and other aspects.
Even though Flower Leaf Leaf hadn't learned any offensive skills yet, relying solely on its strength and agility, Lin Chuan was already no match for it. If Flower Leaf Leaf went all out, its cute, round, short little chubby hands could split a green brick. One could only say this was a spirit beast, capable of easily doing things humans couldn't. Even a plant-type support spirit beast possessed such strength, let alone animal-type spirit beasts, which could tear steel apart as if playing.
Then there was Sakura, who hadn't reached Tier 1 yet. Lin Chuan stated that if he went all out, he could still defeat Sakura.
The physical examination ended there.
Based on the progress, Lin Chuan pondered in his mind.
Flower Leaf Leaf could now begin basic advanced training for strength, constitution, and agility.
As for Sakura, it still had to continue eating soil.
Speaking of which, because Flower Leaf Leaf and Sakura were competing against each other today, chasing and catching, both putting their all into Photosynthesis, they were noticeably much fatter than yesterday, and their body mass and density were rapidly increasing. Lin Chuan estimated he could still hold them today, but it would probably be a struggle tomorrow and the day after.
There was nothing else to do today, so Lin Chuan let Flower Leaf Leaf and Sakura have free time to play and have fun. Immediately, Flower Leaf Leaf and Sakura disappeared, going to play with their Flower Leaf Leaf companions on the farm.
At this moment, the sun hadn't completely set, and there were red clouds spreading across the horizon.
Soon, Lin Chuan saw a group of chubby Flower Leaf Leaves, including his Flower Leaf Leaf and Sakura, chasing and playing, making happy noises under the afterglow of the setting sun, their shadows stretching long and long. They looked so joyful, and such a cute scene softened Lin Chuan's tough heart, making him reveal a warm and content smile.
Hmm, it was almost time. He ordered takeout, planning to start working after dinner.
What kind of work?
Of course, it was writing the proposal for the Baby Cup.
Hmm, if there was any time left, then he would research the fairy spirit flower.
Just as Lin Chuan was sitting on a small stool, watching the Flower Leaf Leaves play and happily eating his delicious takeout, Lin Xuédòng rushed back excitedly, bringing good news.
Lin Xuédòng said that today he first went to the town government, then to the Beastmaster Association, and other relevant departments, tirelessly busy, finally completing all the necessary paperwork and procedures for applying to host the New Beast Master Competition.
As for the result, of course, the application was approved.
After all, the farm's environment and venue conditions were excellent, far superior to some corporate shopping malls.
Lin Xuédòng handed the documents in his hand to Lin Chuan, while he himself picked up an unopened takeout box nearby and started eating.
The New Beast Master Competition hosted by Lin's Farm was named the Hua Ye Ye Cup.
The competition would last for 3 days.
The champion's prize money was 400,000, the runner-up's 200,000, the third-place's 100,000, and all participants would receive a small gift provided by Lin's Farm, valued at 10,000 star rock coin!
The specific start date was July 13th.
That is, in 10 days.
“Time is a bit tight, but it should be enough,” Lin Chuan murmured, calculating in his mind.
Currently, neither Flower Leaf Leaf nor Sakura had any defensive or offensive skills.
However, with 10 days and the terrifying effect of Reincarnation of Inheritance, the skill set should be initially constructed to form combat power.
