Su Ping waved his hand to bid farewell to Qin Xiaoxue, who waved back vigorously, and then boarded Sang Sheng's exclusive plane, "Cloud Soarer."

On the return trip, there was one more person than when he had arrived.

The presence of Master Zhu Hong made neither Liu Fuhai nor Sun Chaoju feel as at ease as they did on the way there.

At this time, Su Ping was not concerned with their feelings. He was looking at the messages Su Anyong had sent persistently from the previous night until the next morning, and that last message, filled with resentment, "You just wait for me."

Su Ping was speechless.

He then sent a message, but unfortunately, it clearly showed: [Message failed to send, the user is not in your friends list, please add as a friend.]

Next, Su Ping made a phone call, but in the end, he got a similarly frustrating message: "Hello, the number you have dialed cannot be reached."

Helplessly shaking his head, Su Ping thought, Blocked my calls too? Is that necessary? How come the old man gets less and less able to take a joke as he gets older? Besides, it's not like I intentionally made fun of the old man; wasn't I just too sleepy and fell asleep? I hadn't even had the chance to consume the Soul Fruit before I fell asleep; how could I be blamed?

Anyway, Su Ping didn't bother with the old man's sour attitude. Glancing at the three slightly awkward figures, he went straight to the point, "Master Zhu, I heard from Sang Sheng that you once cultivated a Super-Rank Skill called Heart of Elements on a Pet Beast?"

At these words, Sun Chaoju and Liu Fuhai both perked up their ears.

Zhu Hong nodded with a smile, "Indeed, but it was only a basic Heart of Five Elements, without delving into deeper elemental energies like wind, lightning, and ice among the other attributes."

"That's still quite impressive. I would like to learn more about this from you!" Su Ping said with a smile.

To his surprise, Zhu Hong shook his head, "In fact, while it might seem like my accomplishment, the reality is that the Pet Beast itself was special. Without that unique Pet Beast, succeeding so smoothly wouldn't have been possible."

Liu Fuhai finally found an opportunity to interject, "Master Zhu Hong, what kind of Pet Beast can endure such a variety of elemental attribute changes?"

Su Ping was also intrigued.

This type of Pet Beast, capable of containing multiple attributes, could significantly boost the Five Elements Origami Man if studied thoroughly! Moreover, I'm confident in my own abilities. Leng Ye still owes me a promise, and the Spiritual Level Resource I want from the Breeder competition hasn't been decided yet – exchanging for this Pet Beast shouldn't be a problem, right? In a nutshell, I'm now of the mindset, 'Money is no issue for me!'

Master Zhu glanced at him. Seeing Su Ping's equally curious and expectant gaze, he didn't conceal anything and spoke bluntly, "There's nothing to hide about this. The Pet Beast is none other than the Divine Dragon, now under the care of Holy Dragon. Ordinary Red Dragons from the Dragon Clan can evolve into Spirit Saint Level Fire Dragons. Similarly, after reaching the Spirit Saint Level, this type of Dragon Clan can undergo a special evolution to integrate multiple elements. Their racial upper limit then reaches the Legendary Level, becoming the Multi-Element Dragon, also known as a Divine Dragon. At that time, I cultivated the Heart of Elements on that Divine Dragon."

Su Ping was speechless.

Liu Fuhai was speechless.

Sun Chaoju was speechless.

Alright, alright, alright. That's truly impressive, Su Ping thought. He nodded. My mistake.

Dragons, being among the strongest Pet Beasts even within their own Level, are something I can hardly acquire right now, even the lowliest pure-blooded kind. Besides, dragons are said to be very delicate, and keeping them well is no easy task. Possessing the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas, I pursue the cultivation of many Pet Beasts. My interest in dragons is primarily limited to the rewards for illuminating one level of the Catalog. As for the rest, I had considered it, like the Dragon's Heart that had fleetingly appeared in my dreams while building the Heart of Woods. Unfortunately, for now, it seems that can only be realized in dreams.

However, Master Zhu, who had become more talkative, paused for a moment before continuing, "Speaking of which, this year's Breeder competition does have some rumors. In recent years, many young dragons have been born in our Dragon Nation. Originally, the association intended to offer a young dragon hatchling as the first prize in this year's competition. Moreover, it was to be a particularly rare one. Regrettably, they changed their minds. They now plan to offer that dragon hatchling as a reward for this summer's Professional Assessment National Examination. Therefore, the last-minute decision was made to replace the precious dragon hatchling with the Soul Fruit."

Dragon hatchling!? Sun Chaoju and his teacher exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes. They had originally planned to use this as a reward? It was well known that Dragon Tamers were among the most envied of the Dragon Nation's Beast Tamers. The Dragon Nation has absolute restrictions on the number of dragons. Only those with special national status, identity, and strength are eligible to receive Dragon Pet rewards from the Dragon Nation. Otherwise, ordinary people don't even get a chance to touch them. And now, it turned out this year's Breeder competition almost had a Dragon Pet as a reward! Judging by Master Zhu's words, it seemed this wasn't just any ordinary Dragon Pet either, was it?
