《Start With Contracting Sprites》Chapter 10: Classmates
Advertisement
The first day's training mostly trained the physique of the sprite. The physique was the foundation for everything. Many innocent beginner Sprite Trainers wanted to train sprites' battle skills right after contracting—that was unrealistic.
Su Hao's plan for Silkworm Baby was firstly physical exercises, and secondly, training Silkworm Baby's speed and agility.
So long as the speed was fast enough and it had enough agility, the simple skill of "dodging" could make a sprite invincible.
Su Hao couldn't remember how many times he threw the frisbee in the morning.
Silkworm Baby was energetic at the start, but after failing a few times to catch the frisbee, it lost most of its energy.
Fortunately, it still yearned for the handsome looks of its own kind in the videos and remembered what Su Hao said, "All the hardship and pain in the shadow is to show off on the field."
It was a wise saying that it treasured in its heart.
The little guy gritted its teeth and persisted.
Its progress was also very fast. After many adjustments, Silkworm Baby finally remembered the correct way to exert force, it leaped up like a little puppy and caught the frisbee between its teeth.
"Only sprites, with a much stronger recovery ability than ordinary animals, can be trained like this."
Silkworm Baby was small in size, and it fell down quite a lot of times, but it only felt pain and didn't really get injured. Its physical strength also recovered quickly.
Its progress was visible to the naked eye.
There was no wonder that sprites were "main characters" favored by Mother Nature—humans were just their feeders.
After training from morning till noon, Silkworm Baby could already manage to leap up rapidly and get the frisbee within three seconds after it left the hand. Sometimes, it even made 360-degree flips in the air.
If it wasn't that Su Hao forbade Silkworm Baby to come too close, the little guy might pounce on the frisbee even before it left the hand.
"Gurgle~!"
Silkworm Baby shook the dust off its body. Successive successes brought it a sense of accomplishment, and its enthusiasm for training rose again.
On the contrary, Su Hao himself was actually pretty exhausted.
As Silkworm Baby progressed, he threw the frisbee faster and higher. He must have thrown it hundreds of times in the same morning. Later on, he threw it with all of his strength. His arms were so sore and numb that he felt he was probably not too far from getting big arm muscles.

"Let's rest and eat."
Silkworm Baby was just feeling a bit of contempt for its Sprite Trainer, but hearing about eating, it forgot about everything else, ran up to him happily, and rubbed itself against his trousers.
Su Hao took out a portion of jade powder and placed it in front of Silkworm Baby.
Silkworm Baby approached and opened its mouth.
"Gurgle, gurgle~"
The whole silkworm looked like (◕ᴗ◕✿)~
Su Hao also took out his own lunch from his backpack. His was pretty ordinary: two loaves of caterpillar bread and a bottle of milk tea.
He tore open the packaging, squeezed the bread upward a little, and took a bite.
Silkworm Baby: っ゚Д゚)っ
It looked at itself, and then at the caterpillar bread in Su Hao's hand, and somehow felt that they looked… a bit alike, very alike!
Can it be that disobedient sprites will be made into bread? Oh so scary, gurgle o((⊙_⊙))o
Su Hao didn't know what happened, but Silkworm Baby worked harder during the afternoon training.
Perhaps it was touched by my good qualities.
…
For a few days in a row, Su Hao brought Silkworm Baby out in the morning and returned before dinner.
Apart from basic physical training and spiritual force training, agility training was also one of the daily training plans. In Su Hao's plans, in the early stage, the battle power of Silkworm Babies in the early stage was mostly shown through its agility and hitting force.
Agility training had already changed from throwing the frisbee to throwing elastic balls.
Interspersed in between were strength training and hitting-withstanding training. Su Hao chose the low-cost and extremely productive training method, bumping against trees. It trained the Silkworm Baby's hitting force, made its skin thicker and harder during the collision, and even made it overcome the fear mentality to reach new heights in its life as a silkworm.
The only problem to overcome was that Silkworm Baby wasn't very willing.
Fortunately, there were also targeted psychological guidance in the cultivation plans… It wasn't that Su Hao was a harsh trainer, but Silkworm Baby was too bad at resisting temptations.
Su Hao also chose some relatively affordable spiritual plants according to the cultivation plan for Silkworm Baby to absorb. This was the benefit of Wood-Element Sprites—they both assisted in growing plants and absorbing the essences of plants.
The spiritual plant he chose was the most suitable for Silkworm Baby to absorb, and the cheapest.
On the eighth day of training, Silkworm Baby had gotten bigger in size, and its progress was already very clear.

On this day, when he set off in the morning, Su Hao already changed from running to riding a shared bike. Silkworm Baby, which had already grown into the size of a fat cat, ran after him with its little legs, and it was able to catch up with him!
The energy stored in its body had increased a lot, and its control of spiritual force also improved by many levels.
It could already focus the spiritual force light spots it spewed out to a straight line, with the furthest distance being 383cm and the longest timing lasting 5.4s. But the spiritual force output was already many times its initial level. The power was enough to tear up an ordinary piece of paper.
Without learning any unique skill, Silkworm Baby's battle power was still shown through its speed and strength. The spiritual force represented its accumulation.
However, it also learned how to wrap spiritual force on its body and use its full force for a hit. It could directly break a small sapling as thick as a teacup!
On top of the gratification, Su Hao also felt a bit regretful.
He regretted that he didn't find an opportunity to give Silkworm Baby a beating—now, he was already no match for it.
Its battle power was roughly equal to 1.5 of himself.
His position was relegated once again.
He also felt an almost unnoticeable bit of backward benefit on himself.
No, although he was a bit stronger, that was because he himself exercised, what had that got to do with Silkworm Baby?
Not far away, Silkworm Baby passed through the woods rapidly, continuously making "S" shapes or "8" shapes. It kept at its full speed, and occasionally it would accidentally bump onto a tree trunk, its soft body contracting toward the front, before bumping back at once.
The tree shook, and leaves fell.
Su Hao leaned against another tree and flipped the Moral Education textbook in his hand.
Sprite stream students also needed to study academic knowledge, and Moral Education was an important subject among them. The weightage during the college entrance examination would not be lower than any main sprite subjects.
There was clearly no such thing before transmigration!
On the brink of tears, Su Hao could only force himself to focus and memorize its content word by word.
Back side of Lake East Hill, by the lakeside…
A neat-looking young woman dressed in sportswear with long hair tied into a ponytail was squatting by the lake, giving orders to her sprite.
It was a sprite with a height that reached the calf, and a completely water-blue body consisted of water streams. It looked like a little girl wearing a long dress that reached the floor. It was submerged in the lake, lake water covering half of its body.
"Little Spring Sprite, absorb lake water, contain it in your body, then mix with spiritual force into a stream, and spray it out!"
"Hum~!"
Its little body inflated like a balloon. After many seconds, Little Spring Sprite's mouth opened slightly, producing a stream of water as thick as three fingers closed together, and it sprayed it out forcefully.
The white water stream was sprayed over a distance of more than 20 meters, bumping onto a tree trunk as thick as the open of a bowl. The continuous spray of water stream made the tree shake continuously. Bits of wood flew up from the trunk, water droplets splashed. After several seconds, the water stream finally lost its force, thinned into a water line, and dropped onto the lake surface and the earth.
There was already a wet puddle of water at the bottom of the tree, and much of the wood on the tree trunk was rubbed off. This spray of water stream, although not a unique skill, already possessed a preliminary wounding power.
"This is it, excellent!"
Little Spring Sprite ran up the land, as though asking to be rewarded. The girl held Little Spring Sprite, lifted it up, and made two turns.
She almost threw Little Spring Sprite out.
"Well… What shall we train next?"
Gu Lingyao took a notebook out of her backpack, on which was… The training plan her uncle had prepared for Little Spring Sprite.
A training plan carefully made by a certified Sprite Cultivator.
It allowed Gu Lingyao to start cultivating Little Spring Sprite before school started, and with methods wiser than those from the school. After all, there was no certified Sprite Cultivator to make personalized cultivation plans at school.
"Hum~ Hum~" The complimented Little Spring Sprite flapped her dress like water waves. "Hum?"
It suddenly looked toward the woods on land.
"What's up, Little Spring Sprite?"
"Hum! Hum, hum~"
"You're saying that there seems to be something over there?"
Gu Lingyao got nervous. Can't it be some wild beast?
She and Little Spring Sprite's two pairs of eyes stared at the woods.
Rustle.
Rustle.
The bushes shook.
A small little figure squinted out of it. Two sprites stared at each other.
Silkworm Baby: (O_O)?
Little Spring Sprite: (๑°⌓°๑)
