Cultivation Pet Shop Chapter 169

Chu He's face twisted and he couldn't say anything for a few seconds before he suddenly said, "You think that you're better than everyone here? We're all people who have worked hard our entire lives to reach this point and you're nothing more than a kid who's here just for fun! How dare you mock us like this?"
Lin Fan spread his hands and gave a shrug, "Why do you keep insisting that I won't be able to pass? Don't you know not to judge a book by its cover?"
Chu He gave a cold laugh at this, "You're clearly a kid who just came here to have fun, you know nothing about how hard this test is. This isn't just a game, this is the Master Monster Trainer test!"
Lin Fan revealed a sly smile at this, "Then do you want to make a bet?"
Chu He raised one brow and asked, "What bet?"
Lin Fan's smile became even wider as he said, "That I'll be able to pass the entire test and become a Master Monster Trainer."
Chu He looked at Xu Yi in a daze for a few seconds before suddenly bursting out in laughter. He kept on laughing for a bit before looking Lin Fan right in the eyes, "What a joke, I've never heard anything funnier in my life!"
Lin Fan just calmly said, "Then you want to take the bet?"
Chu He had a confident smile as he said, "Alright, what will we bet on?"
Lin Fan said, "If I don't pass the Master Monster Trainer test, I will bow and apologize to you in front of everyone, but if I do, you will have to run around the entire Monster Trainer Union in your underwear three times."
Chu He hesitated a bit when he heard the terms, but his pride quickly came over him and he said, "Alright, but I know that you won't take that long to fail. You won't even pass the first knowledge exam. I can't wait to see you bowing in front of everyone."
Chu He walked off, but Lin Fan just had the same smile on his face since he had a secret weapon.
Momonga was the Undead King who had lived for countless years, he was a pool of knowledge to drain from and if Lin Fan just wasted this, he would have been a fool.
During the past month, Lin Fan had been learning all kinds of new things from Momonga since he knew that it wasn't just cultivation that he needed to bring him higher up. He also needed knowledge since sometimes power couldn't solve everything.

He had been focusing on the different characteristics of different kinds of beasts, trying to find weaknesses that he could expose during battle.
However, just like how medicine can become poison if one wasn't careful, this knowledge on how to defeat beasts could also be used to train them. As such, Lin Fan could actually match a Master Monster Trainer when it came to knowledge on beasts.
When the time for the exam finally came, Lin Fan was led to a separate room where there were two old men waiting behind a table with a desk in front of that table for him.
The two old men were both Master Monster Trainers who had been tasked by the Monster Tamer Union to administer this test.
For the other participants taking this test, they were also led to rooms with Master Monster Trainers waiting for them.
Of course, there weren't that many people taking this test since Master Monster Trainer was a rank that wasn't easy to reach, so they had enough examiners for all the examinees at once.
These two old men were surprised to see how young Lin Fan was, but as esteemed Master Monster Trainers, they had much more open minds compared to the people outside. They chose not to judge Lin Fan by his age and decided to wait to judge him by his performance.
One of the old men took out a folder which he held up for Lin Fan to take. Inside the folder were several pieces of paper that had different general knowledge questions on them.
While Monster Trainers generally focused on a single type of pet to train, there were many similarities between most beasts and this was something that all Monster Trainers had to know. Being a Master Monster Trainer meant that one had to have plenty of general knowledge on beasts, which was what this first test was about.
The old man held up that fold while saying, "You are free to answer whichever questions you want to answer, but you have to get at least five out of ten correct to pass."
Lin Fan looked at the two and cupped his hands as he said with a smile, "May I ask the elders to pick a few random questions for me?"
The two old men were surprised to hear this.
There were only so many questions that could be asked, so normally when presented with the choice, there were many participants who memorized just a few questions that commonly appeared on this test. They hoped that they were lucky enough to get the questions that they had memorized and pass this written test.

But Lin Fan suddenly asking these two old men to pick out random questions eliminated that chance completely since these two old men would really pick random questions.
These two old men looked at each other skeptically, thinking that Lin Fan might be using a ploy to show off, but they still picked out the questions for him. If he could answer these questions, then he might really be a genius.
The old man who had taken out the folder picked out ten sheets and handed them over to Lin Fan as he said, "Alright, you can try these questions to see if you can answer them."
The old man didn't really have any opinion towards Lin Fan, so he tried making it as fair as possible. If the difficulty of the questions were to go from a scale of one to ten, then these ten questions would perfectly fit that scale. Each one of these questions would correspond perfectly with one digit of that scale, going from one to ten.
Lin Fan just nodded and took the questions before moving over to the desk.
These two old men also released their spiritual sense in a manner that they considered secret, trying to see if Lin Fan might be using an elaborate way of cheating by distracting them with asking them to pick the questions for him. However they couldn't detect anything at all.
When Lin Fan sensed the spiritual sense of these two old men which of course he could since these two old men were only in the peak Gold Realm, he just secretly revealed a smile.
There was no need for him to cheat at all and if he did, he really would be letting down all the hard work that he had put in over the past month.
Momonga was a crystallization of knowledge that had existed for over thousands of years and Lin Fan was getting personal teachings from that crystallization of knowledge. Even though only a short month had passed since he had started learning, the amount that he had learned was already enough to match him with the president of the Monster Trainer Union who was one of the few Grandmaster Monster Trainers.
As for someone who was at the Legendary Realm, that didn't exist in this lower realm, or at least it no longer existed.
Just like with the Alchemy Tower, there was an upper realm faction that was behind the Monster Trainer Union who had drawn in all the talents that the Monster Trainer Union. Even if there was a Legendary Monster Trainer in the past, they would have been recruited by that upper realm faction and taken to the upper realm.
Lin Fan just casually looked over the question and he could see that they were of a varying scale of difficulty, perfectly scaling with each question and he couldn't help feeling respect for this old man.
Some examiners might make it harder for the examinee if they asked the examiner to pick the questions, but this old man had tried to make it as fair as possible for him, which he could appreciate.
But for someone with his knowledge, these kinds of questions were already at too low of a level for him.
From the moment Lin Fan picked up his pencil, it only took him a total of twenty minutes to finish all of these questions.
It had to be known, the entire time allotted for this exam was an entire hour and that was usually barely enough time for most examinees to even finish five questions. Yet Lin Fan had taken twenty minutes to finish all of these questions, even finishing questions with difficulty levels of ten, which would be hard for even normal Master Monster Trainers to finish.
When the two old men saw him put down the pencil, they looked at him in surprise. At first they thought that Lin Fan had given up on the exam, but then they were shocked to see Lin Fan walk over with all ten pieces of paper and say, "I'm finished."
The two old men quickly came over their shock and the one who picked out the questions asked, "Are you sure you're finished? You still have plenty of time."
Lin Fan placed the pieces of paper in front of them and said, "I'm sure."
The old men looked over these questions and as they did, the shock on their face became deeper.
The only words in their mind was "monster genius"!

This Strange New Life
Seems like I got a new chance. Better not fuck it up then, since I really want to see what it feels to have a family. Power is pretty lame alone. Best used to build things and protect people. Did a lot of building 'till now, lots of research stuff and all. Now, let's protect the people that I love and that loves me back. An enjoyable life with my loved ones. Whatever the cost. Mufufu~~ What can I do, my siblings are so cute~~ maybe I'll try having children at some point~? --- PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION ^p^ ---- This is an extremely slow reincarnation story, with heavy usage of dialogues and diminutive descriptions. Chapter are posted whenever I feel like it, because I won't burn myself down like I did before. Chapters will often be around 2k words. The first arc, Life in Valince, will be at least 50 chapters deep, and the main character won't get to her 1 year anniversary over the span of this arc. As I said, it's a slow, character interaction, dialogue-heavy story. Lots of feeling, slice-of-life etc, with some dramatic events that shape the rest of the story ^^ AND PLEASE, STOP PESTERING ME ABOUT JAPANESE. this story contain a very limited amount of japanese words, used in context for a reason and that are part of the mystery of the worldAnd the bad guys use german (not because nazi buit because german is badass)And there’s also french. Please be open-minded. I’m not a delusional weeb and this kind of thing, and it would be very appreciated if people could be more polite.If you don't like it, I don't force you to read it, but a lot of people seems to like this novel nonetheless, so maybe you should give it a shot. ---- Lux's here! Yeah I know I should work on ToL and ToF but I had another idea, then another one. So here it is. Story talk about a war vet that reincarnate and can finally know what it is to have a family. I like engineering, creating things and all, so I'll try putting production scene in this. Like all my stories, it's about love, be it with family, friends or lovers. I like my coffee with so much love sugar that half the planet would get diabetes. You're warned. Also, the MC is quite OP, but I keep a progression curb and she still has things to learn, which she will eagerly do. After all, curiosity is one of her main drives, with a thirst for love and utter hate of loss, be it losing a battle or losing someone she loves. Ha, nearly forgot. CONTENT WARNINGS AREN'T FOR SHOW. Sex, of course. I'll try to explore sexuality as a male, a female, and some other PoV that can't be categorised like that, not exactly. Also, beware the yuri/yaoi. I don't limit myself to straight couples. Gore. A lot. Blood everywhere, guts spilling and all. I don't do censure. The Mc cut a wolf in half? you get the details of what is inside it. Traumatising content. I dunno. No NTR, no heartbreaking drama. However, some of you may dislike the way I handle bodies and flesh. Got some feedback about body horror on my previous works, but everyone as a different border separating transhumanism and body horror. Mine is pretty high. How high? Go read The Other Labyrthin to have an example. To put it in simple term, I've no problem at all to describe alien bodies, change in human bodies, interactions between differents strange species etc. Expect a lot of tentacle, bio-incubator, spawning pool à la zerg. Profanity. Well, I think you fucking got it in the very first sentence of this synopsis, ain't right? ---- THIS IS A WIP (work in progress)! Earlier chapters may get retconned or completely changed, structure of the story isn't set in stone, all the usual stuff. ANY HELP IS WELCOMED. Want to throw me your idea? Shoot! Spotted an error in the text? Comment! Seen a plothole bigger than the impact zone of a nuke? I'll gladly hear you out and try to fix the problem (somehow ;-;) --- Cover: John Martin - The Plains of Heaven (c. 1851) ---- Official Editor: TheZouave (starting from ch25 onward) ---- List of thanks: Necrotyr (English) Asviloka (English) Damokles (Review) David Talon (Review) JHA (English) Helbom (English) Slee202 (Common Coherence) NEEDS_MORE_DAKA (First First) Srayan (English) Koooomakimi (Dialogue Flow) Emagstar (English) Apocryphal (Review) ToasterForker (Review) Ellen Taylor (Review) Zak (English) PrimalShadow (English) Elliot Flanders (HUGE THANKS for the re-write of the poem "Tale of Ashen Night" Go check their work, it's good ^^) Lance Wheeler (Huge thanks for the English edit on each chapter ^^) (If you think you should be here because you helped me, feel free to ask, pointing the reason, like the comment you gave that could have helped me ^^)

Bloodlines
Bloodlines is the first major story set in the far larger and immensely connected universe known as Infinitum. A group of renegades and misfits take into the sky in their fancy skyship to fulfill the prophecy they don't care about and defeat the Empire they care even less about. In the process, they learn things (they would rather not) of the fucked up Universe, dead gods, and the future that holds no mercy. Bloodlines draws inspiration from One Piece. But in the bigger picture, Bloodlines is one of many stories set in Cosmere-like universe where plots stretch beyond planets and star systems and stakes are higher than godhood (like in Malazan chronicles). Currently, I am planning to finish the first arc [Bandit Arc], add 10k words interlude with some revelations, then publish a story happening elsewhere. Then I will be back to write the second arc. For now, the Fifth Region has 8 arcs planned. Officially, there are 5 regions. The Fifth Region is not the shortest but is far from the longest regions. - PS. Pay attention to flavor text. Chapters published weekly.

Along the way, however, he will find plenty of stories to tell.

Arc 2: Soul City- After a life or death battle with a ravenous beast, Kain and his ally will find himself in the ruins of an unfamiliar city with a familiar name.

Arc 3: People of Power- Barely escaping with their lives, the extradimensionals will find themselves stranded in an unfamilar world and an unfamilar city.

While they do so, powers both hidden and seen will move, driving the city closer and closer to the brink of anarchy. (This is my first time publishing a web novel, so please enjoy the learning process and point out any shortcomings. Thanks!) (A helpful commentor mentioned that there is a game with the same name and concept as this novel. I did not know that such a game existed when I wrote this story and I apologize to anyone confused)
