The Five Elements Cores.

The so-called Hearts of the Five Elements had appeared before Su Ping this very moment.

Heart of Gold, Heart of Woods, Heart of Water, Heart of Fire, Earth's Heart.

In the ancient understanding of Beast Tamers, these five Elements were one of the foundational rules that constituted the world, and the most common Attributes of Pet Beasts.

The varieties of Pet Beasts that evolved from the power of the Five Elements were too numerous to count.

The Heart of Elements was a Skill formed by an extreme adaptivity and control over the corresponding Elemental Power.

And now, powers formed from five different Hearts of Elements surfaced within a single Pet Beast.

Moreover, this Pet Beast could also combine into one entity.

So, what did this represent?

Everyone knew what it meant. So, at a time when they would ordinarily have been eating lunch, the three of them still showed no signs of leaving, watching the Paperman with rapt attention.

Nearly a month had passed since their return from the Magic Capital after New Year's Day, and Lunar New Year's Eve was just a few days away. A vice president of the Dragon Country Breeding Master Association, who was a Breeding Master, and two provincial Breeder Association presidents, who were Senior Breeders, had been tirelessly researching for this extended period. At last, this phase of their research was finally complete.

"Master Zhu Hong, are there any prerequisites for the integration of the Super-Rank Skill, Heart of Elements?"

Zhu Hong smiled and shook his head. "The Heart of Elements is quite basic among Super-Rank Skills, but it holds immense potential. After all, Elements do not have set boundaries; if possible, space and time could even be considered Elements. Darkness, Light, Death, Life—they are all Elements. Combinations of four Hearts of Elements make a Super-Rank Skill, as do six, and even eight. However, it's undeniable that the more powerful the Elements controlled and fused, the stronger the amplification effect. The only challenge is how to cultivate these different Hearts of Elements onto a single Pet Beast. But the Paperman has perfectly solved this problem."

This was a challenge, as most Pet Beasts could not possibly control so many different Elements at once. But the Paperman was different.

Su Ping nodded. "In that case, let's start by testing it on one of my Contracted Beasts."

The research on the Paperman was originally for Qian Yi's growth. If the Skills associated with the Five Elements Core couldn't manifest on Qian Yi, then such Cultivation would lose its greatest significance.

Zhu Hong and Liu Fuhai did not object and nodded.

"Qian Yi!"

With a thought from Su Ping, the little fellow ran over from where it had been practicing swordsmanship nearby. Qian Yi, however, seemed to sense that something good was about to happen, looking eagerly at the three people and the neatly arranged Papermen of its kind.

Su Ping then commanded the Papermen, "These five will act as the core! Transform! Paper Swords!"

In an instant, five Paper Swords of the Five Elements completed their transformation.

Even though Zhu Hong and Liu Fuhai had witnessed it countless times during this period, seeing it again still left them astonished. The Pet Beast World was truly full of wonders; that such a magical Pet Beast could actually exist was astonishing.

The Papermen had transformed from their previous forms into five Paper Swords of their respective Attributes. This wasn't just a change in shape; their souls also underwent a degree of assembly and joining in that moment.

At the same time, Qian Yi seemed to realize something. It swiftly reached out, and the five Paper Swords instantly converged towards its body.

Qian Yi didn't possess the Paperman's Talent Skill, Paper Body Joint. However, this didn't mean Qian Yi was incapable of merging and joining with other Papermen. Quite the contrary; while it lacked Paper Body Joint, it possessed Paper Body Control, a superior Skill obtained through Mutation. This Ability enabled Qian Yi to control any Paperman in most situations. This transformation was even more abstract and mystical than the Papermen's own assembly.

Yet, control was one thing; whether the integration of the Heart of Elements—described by Master Zhu Hong as the most basic of Super-Rank Skills—would go smoothly was undoubtedly still an unknown.

SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH.

In that instant, the five Paper Swords merged into Qian Yi's Sword Box. They still formed that posture resembling wings made of swords.

Qian Yi's fusion with the swords wasn't limited to moments when it was actively wielding them. Back then, in the Trial Tower of the Magic Capital Academy, if not for the constant supply of Energy from the three swords, it was uncertain whether Qian Yi could have endured until it fully grasped the Gale of Resolute Destruction. Therefore, as long as Qian Yi controlled them, under the Paperman's Traits, Qian Yi could completely fuse with these other Papermen, allowing their Energies to intertwine with its own.

Thinking of this, Su Ping's breathing quickened. The Ability of the Heart of Elements, in terms of rarity or other aspects, was far less impressive than the Heart of the Sun. It also wasn't a Super-Rank Skill he had cultivated himself. Compared to his ultimate goal—the generation and restriction cycle of the Five Elements—the Heart of Elements was merely a supplement. But this could be the first Super-Rank Skill to appear on his Soul Contract Pet Beast! As the master of these Papermen, how could he not care at this moment?

At this very moment, Qian Yi also seemed to sense its own change and difference.
