Xiaoruan collects soul tax, and its soul grows stronger day by day.

The side effect of a powerful soul is that Xiaoruan becomes smarter.

Now it can fully understand others speaking, and recently it has started learning the language of the alliance. Progress is a bit slow, still in the early stages.

Slime's vocal organs are not very developed, which is understandable.

In the afternoon, the elder of the Holy Lotus Family enthusiastically invited Li Cunxu to the Holy Lotus Pool to choose a Holy Lotus Carp, evidently because Grandpa Li Shiji revealed Li Cunxu's awakening of the Blood Lotus Eye to the Holy Lotus Family.

The elder who came was an old acquaintance, Li Shihuo.

Li Shihuo looked at the big and small Li Cunxu and Li Anle with unstoppable envy.

Li Shiji is incredibly lucky!

Not only is he a genius, but his granddaughter and grandson are also outstanding, one awakened the Red Lotus Eye, and the other the Blood Lotus Eye.

Li Cunxu asked, "Can I only choose the Holy Lotus Carp? Can't I choose the Cyan Lotus Carp?"

Li Shihuo was somewhat embarrassed, "You can choose the Cyan Lotus Carp, but try to choose the Holy Lotus Carp; there aren't many Cyan Lotus Carps."

The relationship between the Lotus Carp and the Lotus Eye is one of mutual prosperity and failure.

After the Cyan Lotus Li Family was annihilated, the breeding ability of the Cyan Lotus Carp seemed to be severely damaged, and newborn Cyan Lotus Carps are becoming fewer and fewer.

According to the family's speculation, in another twenty years, there will be no more new Cyan Lotus Carps.

So now, every Cyan Lotus Carp is precious.

Li Cunxu smiled, "Just kidding, I won't choose the Cyan Lotus Carp."

Li Cunxu was more inclined towards the Holy Lotus Carp, as its exclusive racial skill, Constant Light Armor, was really appealing.

Moreover, Li Cunxu wanted to share the Constant Light Armor skill.

Beast Masters do not lack attack skills; attacks can be replaced by pets. Beast Masters lack defense skills because some unscrupulous enemies will attack from behind, trying to capture the master first.

Therefore, Beast Masters need to stack defensive skills.

Why did Li Cunxu want to contribute the Water Sphere skill?

That's because a highly proficient Water Sphere is a multifunctional and practical skill.

Water Sphere can satiate thirst, absorb moisture from clothes, drying them. Stepping on a Water Sphere, it can take you flying. A hollow Water Sphere is also a protective shield, capable of defending against attacks and poisonous fogs…

Moreover, Li Cunxu holds grudges. Last time, while picking fish scales at the Cyan Lotus Pool, he was bumped by the Cyan Lotus Carp several times, and he still holds a grudge.

Finally, it comes down to personality issues.

Holy Lotus Carp is more laid-back, with a very good attitude among dragon pets, while Cyan Lotus Carp is rather irritable, like a hot-tempered elder brother who flares up easily, not easy to tame.

On the way to the Holy Lotus Pool, Li Shihuo hinted, "What do you think of the family? Do you think the family is good?"

Li Cunxu glanced at him, seeing through his subtle thoughts, bluntly saying, "You want to invite me to join the Holy Lotus Family, right!"

"Yes, yes."

"I agree."

"Ah?"

Agreeing too quickly, Li Shihuo was somewhat caught off guard.

Originally, Li Shihuo thought Li Cunxu wouldn't agree, after all, when Li Cunxu disguised as the Half Eye, he showed a reluctance to join the family.

Times have changed.

Back then, Li Cunxu was very weak with a dim future. If he joined the family, it was Li Cunxu who needed the family, and the family would be a benefactor to him. If the family made some excessive demands, Li Cunxu couldn't refuse.

Now, Li Cunxu is neither weak nor strong, but his future is very bright. He joined Shendu University and even won second place in his freshman year. If he joins the family, it's not Li Cunxu who needs the family, but the family that needs talent like him. The supply-demand relationship has changed; if the family makes some excessive demands, Li Cunxu can completely ignore them.

The family can't do anything to Li Cunxu. If pushed, he can completely use an excuse to separate from the family.

Li Cunxu carries the Blood Lotus Eye, and he will certainly go independent in the future, to establish the Blood Lotus Li Family.

Li Cunxu knows this, and so does the Holy Lotus Family.

Why does the Holy Lotus Family still ask if Li Cunxu would join the family?

Because the Holy Lotus Family needs to test Li Cunxu's attitude.

Whether friendly or hostile towards the Holy Lotus Family.

The Saint Lotus Li Family doesn't want to use so many resources to support a wolf in sheep's clothing that is hostile towards them.

Once again, they arrived at the Holy Lotus Pool.

Li Cunxu showed the Blood Lotus Eye and released its direct pupil power outwards. In an instant, a hot and bloody aura spread above the Holy Lotus Pool, attracting a bunch of enthusiastic Holy Lotus Carps. On the side, Cyan Lotus Carps from the Cyan Lotus Pool also approached the edge.

Both the Holy Lotus Eye and the Cyan Lotus Carp know through their inherited lineage knowledge what a mutated Holy Lotus Eye means.

It means the ancestor of the Lotus Carp lineage.

Just like Li Anle's Red Lotus Carp, no matter how poorly the Red Lotus Carp does, it is the ancestor of the Red Lotus Carp lineage, the source of the Red Lotus Carp bloodline.

The first page of bloodline inheritance received by the Red Lotus Carp is left by Li Anle's Red Lotus Carp.

Li Cunxu found it amusing, last time they ignored me, now they are full of enthusiasm.

Some Holy Lotus Carps continuously slapped the water with their tails, trying to attract Li Cunxu's attention.

Li Cunxu wasn't in a hurry to choose, wanting to observe more.

While looking, he casually counted the number of Holy Lotus Carps and Cyan Lotus Carps.

Seventy-eight Holy Lotus Carps, fourteen Cyan Lotus Carps.

Cyan Lotus Carps are indeed few.

When choosing Holy Lotus Carps, the talent is nothing to look at, because their talent is fixed.

[Holy Lotus Pattern (Purple)]: In a battle, each time receiving an attack, a Holy Lotus Pattern is added, which can amplify all defense skills. One Holy Lotus Pattern amplifies by 1%, two amplify by 2%...

The maximum limit for stacking Holy Lotus Patterns is determined by major levels.

Black Iron level, maximum stacking of Holy Lotus Patterns is 10.

Bronze level, maximum stacking is 20.

Silver level, maximum stacking is 30.

…

The talent of Cyan Lotus Carps is also fixed, called [Cyan Lotus Pattern].

In battle, each time an attack is unleashed, a Cyan Lotus Pattern is added, amplifying all attack skills. One Cyan Lotus Pattern amplifies by 1%.

Red Lotus Carp has the same talent called [Red Lotus Pattern].

However, its stacking method differs slightly from the previous two talents, stacking with each sinful being (all beings with sin) burned.

This leads to the inability of Red Lotus Pattern to be effective in traditional battles. After all, where in a tournament match are sinful beings for you to burn?

The amplification is also different from the previous two talents.

Red Lotus Pattern can amplify all fire-type skills, with one Red Lotus Pattern amplifying by 10%, two by 20%.

The Red Lotus Pattern talent suits the battlefield rather than the tournament.

Don't look at talent; potential isn't much to see either.

The potential of Holy Lotus Carps is generally excellent, being either a King or an Overlord.

This is why so many people want Holy Lotus Carps.

As long as you don't drag your own cultivation level, you are bound to gain a King pet.

Li Cunxu casually glanced at the Cyan Lotus Pool's Cyan Lotus Carps.

He noticed that compared to the potential of Holy Lotus Carps, the overall potential of Cyan Lotus Carps was relatively inferior.
