The wolf cubs, just a week ago, were only about a meter tall, barely able to reach Xue En’s throat when they jumped. In fact, for professionals, they were just harmless wild creatures.
Why use Xue En as an example? He was overly welcomed by the dragon cubs, and now he was still being bitten by the pack of wolves every day... Perhaps because they had a grudge against him when they were young, they particularly "loved" this meaty Panda-man.
However, Xue En now dared not let them hang all over him anymore.
"Go away, my flesh is tough and dry, not tasty at all..."
Behind the struggling Xue En was a malicious pack of wolves.
Now, they were either big or small, some of them have grown to two meters and five, and the shortest ones are also one meter and five or six... Most importantly, they had "grown up" and had sharp steel teeth.
"They grow really fast."
"The resources in this world are not bad, but more importantly, we have treasures in our hands..."
Beast Tamers rely on their pets to make a living, so they naturally have extremely fast methods to grow their pets, but in most cases, they do not use these methods on their own "beloved pets".
Because this method of hastening maturity shortens the pets’ growth period and causes them to grow up faster, it also overdrafts their potential.

If it’s a high-quality Magic Pet, this method wouldn’t be needed... But the current "Third-Class Wolf Beasts" are not in that category.
"...The quality of the first batch of growth magic potion was too good, and although they lost their childhood, their spirituality was not much lost from the results of the second wave of soul awakening."
"It’s because the core materials of the magic potion are too good. Who would have thought that Lu Ping’an’s team would have a top-quality Life Essence generator? This effect, I even suspect if it’s really a rule-level..."
The conversation between the two Magic Alchemist shows their surprise at the effectiveness of the magic potion they made.
The reason was quite simple: it was the newly added rule building in Hidden World Courtyard - the Calamity Lake.
Its function was quite simple and crude, like its predecessor "teapot", which was to decompose a living creature...
[Function: Blessing and Calamity Diversion (Upper Silver Ability): Throw a living creature into the main lake of Calamity, and it will quickly decompose, irrigating the Life Essence into Life Lake (Lake Number 1). At the same time, Lakes Number 2 and Number 3 will randomly become Blessing Lake or Calamity Lake, gaining life toxin/essence enhancement.]
This is pure Life Essence, the crystallization of life after refining.
And animals, plants... Growth and evolution of life require this kind of life essence.
Generally, the normal growth potion for accelerating magic pets’ growth is made from the core materials of high-life-essence magic plants, but at Big Cat’s suggestion, using the life essence in the pool as the main material, the resulting growth acceleration potion is extremely effective.
Not only does it have an excellent maturation effect, but it also does not damage the foundation of magic pets much.
"Maybe it’s because the rule-building is useful, but it’s also because the creatures here have a particularly strong and pure life force..."
Local powerful creatures were thrown into the pool, refined life essence was made into potions, and became nutrition for local creatures.
"We should also thank Professor Wen and the others. Without their help, we wouldn’t have been able to come up with the new potion formula so quickly."
"Yeah, several auxiliary materials were temporarily grown by them. This ability to grow magic plants by just putting in points is too cheat."
At this point, Lu Ping’an’s "life profession industry chain" became truly terrifying.
Gardeners provided magic plant materials, Magic Alchemist processed them into potions, and Beast Tamers fed their babies... This internal circulation chain of life professions naturally formed in Lu Ping’an’s courtyard.
When the magic potion changed the main material, its formula naturally needed adjustment. Two Magic Alchemist and several gardeners worked together, specializing in cultivation and providing auxiliary materials to produce practical potions in a short time.
"Now that the ’Soldiers’ have grown up after taking the potions and have not been severely damaged, can they be used for ’Knights’ and ’Kings’ too?"
"According to Lu Ping’an, the Knights can use it, but the Kings should wait a while, and let them continue their growth..."
Lu Ping’an’s intention in setting up a Beast Tamer base here was not to raise dogs and take them for walks, but to quickly form combat power and cover up the shortcomings of his own side’s combat group.
Every system has its advantages and disadvantages. The Explorer mechanism limits the number of tickets and strengthens the supervision, which, in turn, makes each quota valuable and naturally makes the "elite soldiers and strong generals" the only choice.
Every Explorer who gets a chance will cherish it, and there are round-trip audits. Although they may not strictly investigate up to your eighteenth-generation ancestors, at least they can guarantee your bottom line in public and social settings.
But as cost, they cannot compete with other countries that can even bring ordinary soldiers to the battlefield in terms of total forces.
"We need losers... The more troops, the better, as long as they can be mass-produced, it’s fine."
In this situation, the expertise of Beast Tamers is just too obvious.
"The excess War Beasts and eliminated combat beasts can be sold, and they will be willing to buy them..."
In fact, the unfortunate ones who were rescued and stayed at the camp were indeed showing some interest in the War Beasts.
Every day, the people Lu Ping’an sent out were searching for and hunting various cubs, and then selecting and eliminating them.
With such an accelerated growth potion, he also plans to start a selection program to try to breed second-generation creatures... This is an additional investment after learning about the Aus people’s situation. The cost of the potion is not low, and there is no need for such luxury if it is not urgently needed for combat power.
Just the acceleration-only secondary potion costs a lot less and allows them to mature in months. Otherwise, letting them grow on their own would probably only take half a year to a year.
Of course, they are just "grown-up beasts", and their fighting strength is still unreliable. They are just powerful animals commonly found in this world.
"These are the Magic pets of the Beast Tamers..."
The strength of a magic pet is directly linked to its Beast Tamer.
Well-trained Tamers are not mere fodder but elites or even boss-level creatures.
Lu Ping’an’s team’s two Beast Tamers are now facing their biggest challenge in their profession...
"Alright, you’ve all mastered the ’Blood Connection’, now it’s time to test its effects... Or, rather, it’s time for the lottery."
Beast Tamers and Gardeners, in fact, are two professions with very few high-level part-timers... That’s because these two life system professions are too profound and require endless energy to invest in.
However, there are still many low-level Beast Tamer part-timers, because having a combat beast that grows with you is very cost-effective.
Initially, Meow intended to take the part-time route, but she didn’t expect to be forced into becoming a high-level Beast Tamer.
Most low-level Beast Tamers are 2-tier because the awakening of an essential core ability by a 2-tier Beast Tamer is unique to everyone, and in the eyes of many, that almost directly determines a Beast Tamer’s future.
Lu Ping’an, who was watching this scene, was also very nervous. With just two noob Beast Tamers in his hands, if they both awakened garbage traits, his combat beast training plan would likely be greatly discounted, if not completely scrapped.
