• Su Ping watched Manager Guan board a bus with a suitcase, then greeted another visitor who had come to his breeding base.

Su Ping limited Woodheart’s training workload, taught Li Shu the basics, and used Forest Wolf manure to help care for a Falling Seed Pine whose record he hoped to activate. The chapter ended when Su Ping received notice that the expensive resources he had ordered had arrived.

• Su Ping assigned Li Shu reception duties and basic Forest Wolf training while limiting Woodheart to one Forest Wolf for training each week.
• Li Shu learned that his father, Li Senlin, was impressed by Su Ping’s intermediate breeder certificate and stayed at Woodheart to learn from him.
• Su Ping explained how Forest Wolf manure could reduce wolves’ hostility and help the Falling Seed Pine grow, while Li Shu volunteered to handle the droppings.
• Su Ping planned to raise his intimacy with the Falling Seed Pine and activate its Myriad Spirits Codex record for a reward.
• Su Ping received a message that his purchased materials had been delivered and wondered whether he could begin training the other Forest Wolves and feed Xiaoqing poison-type resources.

Su Ping tested Xiao Qing’s tolerance for poison-type resources by feeding him wolfbane aconite, but the plant did not improve Xiao Qing’s rank or skills. The Myriad Spirits Codex then reported better poison-training results and offered to reveal the cause and cultivation method of Xiao Qing’s bloodline mutation for 49,990 experience points.

• Su Ping checked a shipment of Woodheart Potion materials and poison-type resources, then took Xiao Qing to the infirmary.
• Su Ping fed Xiao Qing wolfbane aconite a flower at a time and saw no change in his condition.
• Su Ping prepared emergency treatment and gave Xiao Qing the rest of the plant, causing temporary symptoms that soon disappeared.
• Xiao Qing recovered without gaining a rank or changing his skills, but the Myriad Spirits Codex reported improved poison-training results.
• The Codex offered Su Ping an analysis of the Forest Wolf’s poison-type bloodline mutation and its cultivation method for 49,990 experience points.

Su Ping tested Xiao Qing after strengthening its poison bloodline and discovered that its Poison Vine Strangulation had advanced to proficient. He spent the day training the beasts and preparing to test Woodheart Potion ingredients, while Li Shu struggled to reconcile Su Ping’s ordinary chores with his image of a breeder.

• The Myriad Spirits Codex showed that analyzing Xiao Qing’s bloodline mutation required fewer experience points, and Su Ping resolved to improve his breeding skills so he could find Xiao Qing a suitable evolution.
• Su Ping tested Xiao Qing’s Poison Vine Entanglement on the elite Forest Wolf San Ha and noticed that the skill’s toxicity had increased.
• Xiao Qing’s Poison Vine Strangulation advanced from beginner to proficient, and Su Ping confirmed that Forest Wolves’ Tree Vine Strangulation practice could help improve it through Connection Sharing.
• Su Ping sent Xiao Qing, Wooden Head, and the other beasts back to training, then took Old Sha to pull weeds as he prepared to test Woodheart Potion ingredients.
• Li Shu told his father that he had spent the day shoveling poop, cutting grass, and watching beasts fight, leaving him bewildered about what a breeder’s work involved.

Su Ping experimented with Woodheart Potion and considered whether Wolf Smoke Grass could have a direct effect on Forest Wolves. The chapter ended with Wooden Head’s Self-Healing improving to Proficient, proving Su Ping had won his bet.

• Su Ping saved several bottles of Woodheart Potion and tested different doses on Forest Wolves, recording their reactions.
• Su Ping told Li Shu that the potion was special food for Forest Wolves, then wondered whether Wolf Smoke Grass itself affected them.
• Wooden Head began glowing as his injuries healed rapidly, despite having taken no potion in the experiment.
• Su Ping used True Eye to see that Wooden Head’s Self-Healing had advanced from Beginner to Proficient.

Su Ping tested whether Wolf Smoke Grass affected Forest Wolves taking Woodheart’s Magic Potion, while managing training and business at Woodheart. On the experiment’s sixth day, one test subject comprehended a skill after taking only six-tenths of the potion, prompting the Myriad Spirits Codex to update its Forest Wolf record.

• Su Ping trained the Forest Wolves and found that feeding Woodheart’s Magic Potion in portions helped them comprehend skills and improve their tiers.
• Su Ping nurtured Li Shu’s Falling Seed Pine and continued training newly arrived Forest Wolves as Woodheart’s business grew.
• Su Ping began an experiment in which one Forest Wolf ate Wolf Smoke Grass while another basked in the sun, giving both the same daily portion of Woodheart’s Magic Potion.
• Old Sha followed Su Ping to the Spirit Creek River each day, watching over him and the Forest Wolves despite Su Ping’s reassurances.
• On the experiment’s sixth day, the Forest Wolf eating Wolf Smoke Grass comprehended a skill after receiving six-tenths of the potion, and the Myriad Spirits Codex opened its Forest Wolf record.

Su Ping discovered that Wolf Smoke Grass strengthened a Forest Wolf’s Woodheart skill but lowered its level, prompting him to plan further experiments. After learning about the Breeder Association’s laboratories and equipment, he realized the cost of building his own lab was enormous and resolved to find customers and earn money.

• Su Ping examined the Forest Wolf that had learned Woodheart and found that its level had fallen from ordinary tier eight to ordinary tier seven.
• Su Ping recorded the result and harvested more Wolf Smoke Grass so he could extract its essence and conduct further experiments.
• Su Ping called Vice President Liu, who offered to send him equipment options, use his authorization to secure a discount, and invited him to a wolf-type Breeder class.
• Su Ping browsed the Breeder Association’s equipment listings and saw that a single extractor cost hundreds of millions.
• Su Ping resolved to attract customers, earn money, and build his own laboratory.

Su Ping used life energy from Qin Xiaoxue’s Life Ancient Tree to help Pinecone, Li Shu’s Falling Seed Pine, develop its combat skill. Pinecone’s affinity reached the threshold, and a new record appeared in Su Ping’s Myriad Spirits Codex.

• Su Ping returned with Old Sha and a weak Forest Wolf, then asked Li Shu to process Wolf Smoke Grass in the Medicine Furnace under Old Sha’s supervision.
• Su Ping checked on Pinecone, whose level had reached ordinary third rank but whose affinity had not yet met the threshold.
• Su Ping brought out life energy discharged by Qin Xiaoxue’s Life Ancient Tree to attract Pinecone.
• The life energy entered Pinecone and helped it comprehend Pinecone Cannonball, which it launched as a fruit that exploded in midair.
• Pinecone’s affinity reached the threshold, and a new record appeared in Su Ping’s Myriad Spirits Codex.

Su Ping activated the Falling Seed Pine record in the Myriad Spirits Codex and gained mind communication, then began testing the ability with the Forest Wolves. Meanwhile, Li Shu struggled through hours of exhausting medicinal preparation and questioned whether he wanted to become a Breeder.

• Su Ping activated the Falling Seed Pine record and received the mind communication ability as an origin reward.
• Su Ping read the Falling Seed Pine record and learned about its traits, preferences, and limited record experience.
• Su Ping faintly understood the young Falling Seed Pine’s words and went to test mind communication with the Forest Wolves.
• Li Shu’s medicinal preparation wore him down as he pounded ingredients and controlled the furnace for hours.
• Li Shu considered giving up but forced himself to begin the final stage of the preparation.

After Li Shu left, Su Ping continued developing Woodheart and training the Forest Wolves while investigating Old Sha’s warning about an unfamiliar presence near the Spirit Creek River. As a tiny white figure emerged from the river, Old Sha lunged at it.

• Li Shu returned home with his father, Li Senlin, after helping Su Ping at Woodheart, and Su Ping declined Li Senlin’s cash gift.
• Su Ping tested Wolf Smoke Grass on laboratory mice, saw no notable effects, and put the experiments on hold.
• Su Ping completed Woodheart training for twenty-six Forest Wolves and began seeking ways to teach them coordinated group combat.
• Su Ping visited the Spirit Creek River at night with Old Sha and Xiao Qing to investigate the unfamiliar presence Old Sha had sensed.
• A tiny snowy-white figure emerged from the river, and Old Sha lunged at it.

Su Ping and Old Sha encountered a strange wild Paper-Folding Man that displayed powerful Metal-type attacks and vanished with a Space-type ability. Su Ping suspected the incident was connected to Dong Muyun and Skycloud Group’s interest in his family’s land, but he still did not know what was happening.

• Su Ping told Old Sha not to hurt the small figure, then recognized it as an Undead-type Paper-Folding Man.
• Su Ping noticed the Paper-Folding Man’s unusual stance and the sword or saber hilt and sheath folded at its waist.
• When Su Ping approached and used True Eye, the Paper-Folding Man cried out and unleashed a powerful Metal-type strike.
• Old Sha blocked the attack, but the Paper-Folding Man vanished before Old Sha could counterattack.
• Su Ping identified the disappearance as a Space-type ability and suspected the wild Paper-Folding Man was connected to Dong Muyun and Skycloud Group’s effort to buy his family’s land.

Unable to sleep after the strange events and the Skycloud Group’s involvement, Su Ping tried to discuss his concerns with his father, Su Anyong, but got distracted by his father’s new relationship. Later, Su Ping discovered that Qin Xiaoxue’s Wooden Head had advanced its Woodheart skill to Proficient and decided it was time for her to take the wolf home.

• Su Ping called Su Anyong to ask for advice, but their messages turned to Su Anyong’s wealthy new partner and Su Ping’s request for a 300-million-yuan Mechanical Core Compression Extraction Machine.
• Su Ping told Su Anyong he was a certified intermediate breeder, but Su Anyong did not take the claim seriously and ended the conversation when his partner woke up.
• Unable to sleep, Su Ping went out to check on the Forest Wolves’ training and noted that Xiao Qing had reached Ordinary Tier Seven after eating a Heart-Piercing Fruit.
• Su Ping noticed green lights around Wooden Head and used True Eye to see that its Woodheart skill had advanced to Proficient.
• Su Ping decided to notify Qin Xiaoxue to collect Wooden Head before its progress became harder to explain.

Sun Chaoju anxiously awaited the end of his fifteen-day wager with Su Ping and Qin Xiaoxue, convinced that Wooden Head could not improve its Self-Healing skill in time. Just two days before the deadline, a call from Teacher Liu left Sun Chaoju so shocked that he dropped and shattered his phone.

• Sun Chaoju monitored the successful training results at Wood Heart and wondered whether Su Ping could raise Wooden Head's Self-Healing from Beginner to Proficient in fifteen days.
• Sun Chaoju reasoned that Self-Healing was exceptionally difficult to improve and became increasingly confident that he would win the wager.
• Sun Chaoju worried that he might have to hand over Accelerated Casting, the secret training method underpinning Wolf Den.
• With two days remaining, Sun Chaoju reassured himself that he would soon obtain Woodheart's training method.
• Teacher Liu called Sun Chaoju, who dropped his phone and shattered it after answering.

Su Ping demonstrated Wooden Head’s successful training to Sun Chaoju, who accepted his defeat and offered him his research on Accelerated Casting and the Ten Thousand Woods Wolf’s evolution. Su Ping accepted Sun Chaoju’s offer, opening the way for them to work together.

• Qin Xiaoxue warmly welcomed Vice President Liu and Sun Chaoju to see Su Ping and Wooden Head.
• Sun Chaoju used True Eye on Wooden Head and saw that its Self-Healing and Woodheart skills had both reached Proficient.
• Su Ping asked Sun Chaoju to honor their bet, and Sun Chaoju admitted defeat and praised Su Ping’s breeding ability.
• Sun Chaoju gave Su Ping a USB Drive containing his Accelerated Casting method, incomplete Ten Thousand Woods Wolf evolution method, and research data.
• Sun Chaoju offered to help Su Ping’s research and provide Forest Wolf test subjects, and Su Ping agreed.

After Qin Xiaoxue revealed Wooden Head’s Canopy Wolf Emperor evolution path, Su Ping told her about the spatial anomaly on his property and learned it was a valuable Mystic Realm. Qin Xiaoxue hurried away after urging him to prepare for the Professional Beast Tamer Assessment, while Su Ping realized she had left without paying and turned his attention to the USB drive.

• Vice President Liu reminded Su Ping to attend his lecture, and Su Ping agreed.
• Qin Xiaoxue said she was returning to Demon City soon and explained that Wooden Head had mastered the skills needed to begin training for the Canopy Wolf Emperor evolution path.
• Su Ping asked to watch Wooden Head’s evolution, and Qin Xiaoxue agreed before asking whether his talent was Pet Beast Home.
• Su Ping told Qin Xiaoxue about the spatial ripples on his property, and she identified them as a Mystic Realm and explained its risks, value, and ownership rules.
• Qin Xiaoxue rushed out with Wooden Head, returned to urge Su Ping to work toward the Professional Beast Tamer Assessment, then left without paying.
• Su Ping ran to the gate to demand payment, found Qin Xiaoxue gone, and took out the USB drive to examine his spoils.

Su Ping read Sun Chaoju’s research and learned that the Myriad Spirits Codex could perfect the Forest Wolf’s Accelerated Casting method into one usable by every pet beast. He also studied the failed research behind the Ten Thousand Woods Wolf’s evolution, leaving the method’s true potential unresolved.

• Su Ping read Sun Chaoju’s Accelerated Casting cultivation secret art, and the Myriad Spirits Codex offered to perfect it into a universal pet beast cultivation method for 500 experience points.
• Su Ping opened Sun Chaoju’s much larger report and learned how the Wolf Den had discovered the Ten Thousand Woods Wolf’s evolution path.
• A Forest Wolf began eating trees and copying plant behaviors before it gained the plant-type skill Photosynthesis.
• Sun Chaoju supplied the Forest Wolf with Water and Earth Element resources, triggering its evolution into a Ten Thousand Woods Wolf.
• The evolving wolf lost its animal organs and tissues, then its plant-like body rotted away; later attempts by Sun Chaoju and the Wolf Den also failed.
• After Su Ping finished reading the research logs, the Forest Wolf entry in the Myriad Spirits Codex began to light up again.

Su Ping discovered that he could complete the Ten Thousand Woods Wolf evolution route by earning more Forest Wolf Record experience, and made unlocking it his top priority. He decided to spend his savings expanding his Forest Wolf pack so he could gather the needed experience quickly and eventually evolve Old Sha.

• Su Ping found the incomplete Ten Thousand Woods Wolf route and saw that he needed 1,682 Record experience points to complete it.
• Su Ping considered how the evolution route could help him win the Breeder Competition or become a valuable legacy for his breeding base and future Lineage.
• Su Ping resolved to unlock the route as soon as possible for Old Sha, whose age and declining vitality worried him.
• Su Ping decided to prioritize buying Forest Wolves over acquiring other pet beasts or experimental equipment.
• Su Ping took out his phone and began expanding his Forest Wolf pack to gain Record experience.

Su Ping expanded his Forest Wolf pack, broke through to Ordinary Tier Eight, and received a message from Qin Xiaoxue promising a gift and free future training. He then went to the Spirit Creek River with Old Sha to confront the Little Paper Figure again, determined to learn what was behind its repeated appearances.

• Su Ping reached Ordinary Tier Eight after several days of meditation and expanded his Forest Wolf pack to fifty by buying twenty-five pups.
• Su Ping considered hiring help for the kennel but worried that he could not trust anyone besides Li Shu, Qin Xiaoxue, and his father.
• Qin Xiaoxue messaged Su Ping from Demon City, saying she had sent him something and would be a permanent VIP whose future training was free.
• Su Ping reflected on Qin Xiaoxue's ambitions and the possibility of reaching Emperor tier, then became excited about taking the Beast Tamer examination.
• Old Sha urged Su Ping to hurry to the Spirit Creek River, where the Little Paper Figure had appeared nightly to fight and disappear.
• Su Ping decided to try a different approach so he could inspect the Little Paper Figure and discover what was happening.

Su Ping tried to persuade the Paper-Folding Man to stay with him by promising to teach it how to become a true Swordsman. After vanishing, the little creature returned with its belongings and asked to become his student, leaving Su Ping ready to examine it with True Eye.

• The Paper-Folding Man appeared and challenged Old Sha, insisting that a true Swordsman never gave up on defeating an opponent.
• Su Ping realized the little figure might hold the secrets of the Mystic Realm and used mind communication to question its idea of a true Swordsman.
• Su Ping told the Paper-Folding Man that it needed to become stronger and offered to teach it if it stayed with him.
• The Paper-Folding Man vanished before answering, then returned carrying a bundle of belongings and asked Su Ping to help it become a true Swordsman.
• Su Ping smiled and prepared to use True Eye on the Paper-Folding Man.

Su Ping discovered that Little Paper Figure had extraordinary skills and tried to persuade it to stay so he could gain access to its Mystic Realm. He planned to prioritize the Ten Thousand Woods Wolf’s evolution while researching how to train a swordsman.

• Su Ping examined Little Paper Figure’s attributes and learned it was an ordinary tier eight pet with Golden Spear Art at perfection and a mysterious Sword Soul Mark.
• Su Ping brought Little Paper Figure to the side room and told it to live there and meet him each night to become a true swordsman.
• Su Ping decided to focus his experience points on completing the Ten Thousand Woods Wolf’s evolution method before teaching Little Paper Figure Accelerated Casting.
• Su Ping watched the Forest Wolves train, then searched online for sword-type pets and skills and began watching martial arts dramas for ideas.
