My starting summon is a small skeleton-Chapter 190 - 188 Getting stronger by getting beaten
Sea Suppression Tower, Logistics Department.
All matters concluded.
Lu Wu hurriedly handed Green Cub over to Dudu and signaled Lin Jianying to quickly contract the Hellish Evil Dog.
"Did I say these two babies were for you?"
Jiang Yuexing raised an eyebrow, and Lu Wu quickly leaned in.
"Mom, my dear mom!"
At this moment, Lu Wu’s face could not have been more sycophantic, and his voice could not have been sweeter.
Seeing Lu Wu’s expression, Jiang Yuexing could not help but recall another face, one that looked exactly like Lu Wu when mooching meals.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuexing’s originally good mood soured instantly, and she coldly snorted, "You’re so clever, you should have guessed that I brought out these two only as bait, to be used and then forgotten!
Don’t even think about taking them!"
The Jiang Yuexing of now was no longer the old Jiang Yuexing, who would let anyone mooch off her. Not a chance!
Not even a window left open!
Her mind was made up; she would give nothing to Lu Wu!
Just let him labor in vain to pay off debts!
Her resolve was solid!
Then,
Ten minutes later!
"Thanks, mom, I love you the most, you are truly my mom!"
Lu Wu sweetly thanked her, then joyously followed Jiang Tianyang to the Cub Zone with Dudu and the others.
Initially, Jiang Yuexing was smiling, but after Lu Wu left, her mind suddenly cleared, and she covered her face with both hands.
"Ugh! I still gave in!"
Not only did she give in, but she also let Lu Wu go to the Cub Zone again; by now, all the Silver Quality Summoning Beast Babies were back, and she allowed Lu Wu to go take a look and perhaps take another one home.
The backfire came so quickly, she hadn’t expected it.
She had been determined not to give Lu Wu anything, but she couldn’t withstand Lu Wu’s fawning, which strongly resembled a certain someone’s.
And with him calling her "mom" over and over, Jiang Yuexing just couldn’t hold on and capitulated.
"I didn’t really give it to him, he passed them to his teammates, so it doesn’t count as giving him anything!"
At this point, Jiang Yuexing could only console herself.
Unexpectedly, Lu Wu shared the Summoned Beasts with his teammates, which surprised her.
Especially giving Green Cub to Dudu, something Jiang Yuexing had not anticipated.
However, she unexpectedly didn’t dislike Lu Wu’s action, though it left her feeling a bit sour; the guy had never been so nice to her.
Shaking off the bitterness in her heart, Jiang Yuexing clenched her fist as she watched the departing Lu Wu and fiercely thought,
"This time he got lucky, but next time, no matter what, I won’t give him the slightest benefit; I’ll make him labor in vain for me for a lifetime!"
...
Over with Lu Wu.
After the whole ordeal, Lu Wu returned to the Cub Zone for Summoned Beasts.
Indeed, the Silver Quality Summoned Beast Babies had returned.
Lu Wu, not dawdling, headed straight toward the flying beast area.
His goal was clear; he wanted to nurture a flyer.
Flying Summoned Beasts were quite popular among the types available at Sea Suppression Tower, with no shortage of Flying Beast Babies.
Apart from the Bronze Black Iron ones Lu Wu had seen before, there were now an additional 33 Silver Quality Flying Beast Babies.
"Hmm, this is how the logistics department of Sea Suppression Tower should look, but no Golden Quality?"

Clearly, Lu Wu was somewhat disdainful of Silver Quality beasts.
Jiang Tianyang curled his lips on the side, "Do you think Golden Quality would be so common that the previous guy would have been such a shameless beggar, not leaving even a dog for you?"
Lu Wu thought about it but couldn’t help feeling disappointed.
After all, his standards were high now, and he truly found it hard to be impressed by Silver Quality Summoned Beasts.
No wonder, none of the 33 beasts caught his eye, leaving Lu Wu deeply frustrated.
"A wasted trip; I should have asked the rich woman to get me a King-level flying Summoned Beast."
Lu Wu thought about asking again but figured that by now, the rich woman had likely come to her senses, and asking again would probably be futile.
"Forget it, let’s go home... Eh, what’s that?"
Just as Lu Wu was about to leave, he caught sight of a pudgy creature running around in the flying bird area.
The little fellow was exceptionally bold and bravely lunged at the group of Silver Quality youngsters.
To put it plainly, the little guy went there to fight.
Not that it seemed likely, but indeed, it went there to fight.
Though it charged ferociously, its combat power seemed unremarkable.
It was immediately swatted to the ground by a wing, then stepped on and pecked by another youngster, which plucked several feathers from its body and let it go.
But the freed little fellow didn’t flee; it took a few steps back with its hind legs, charged bravely again, then was slapped down once more.
The scene repeated.
The pudgy, or rather plucked, creature, swollen from being beaten, seemed insensible to pain and fear.
It kept charging at its targeted opponent.
Though defeated every time, it managed to stand up, clutching its adversary determinedly, like a feisty bulldog with wings.
"This little thing is quite interesting!"
Jiang Tianyang noticed it too, picked up the feisty fellow for a closer inspection.
Suddenly grabbed, the little guy was unhappy, turned its head, and pecked at Jiang Tianyang furiously.
During this time, Lu Wu glanced at the attributes of the little creature.
...
Name: Remarkably Stubborn Great Skylark
Power: 1-star (Ordinary)
Quality: Ordinary (Upgrade) (???)
Attribute: Ice
State: Angry (Don’t get in the way of my fight! I am destined to become the king of brawlers!)
Special Skill: Awakening (Seems like getting hit actually aids in awakening its skills)
Description: This is a hybrid Great Skylark, although its quality is ordinary, there seems to be different powers within it.
...
Looking at this little guy’s attributes, Lu Wu’s eyes brightened.
Well, the previously arranged Gouzi and Green Cub were arranged by a rich woman in advance, so if we talk about snagging bargains, this plucked bird seems to be the one he found on his own.
From the attribute panel, this little guy seems to have something special.
However, whether to keep this little fella, Lu Wu really was hesitant now.
At this moment, Jiang Tianyang regretfully said, "How come it’s just ordinary quality?"
Exactly, what Jiang Tianyang regretted, was also what Lu Wu was hesitant about, everything about this bird was great, just its ordinary quality was a bit fatal.
Lu Wu had raised Little Skeleton from ordinary to its current state; did he really need to cultivate another from ordinary again?
That seemed somewhat troublesome!
Thus, in the end, Lu Wu shook his head, ready to give up on this little fella.
"Put it back!"
However, just as Lu Wu prepared to put it back, it seemed to fixate on Lu Wu.
Its eyes, bright and fierce, locked onto Lu Wu.
Lu Wu glanced at its state, and his face immediately darkened.
Excited: Are humans coming to fight? I feel I can beat you!
Lu Wu couldn’t stand it anymore.
A mere featherless bird, actually daring to challenge him? To say he couldn’t even win against a bird?
How could he tolerate this? Without a second word, Lu Wu rolled up his sleeves.
"Come on then, let’s fight!"
Then, a man and bird went at it.
Really, don’t ask, though the bird was only ordinary quality, though only fifty centimeters tall, and though other younglings had beaten it featherless, it was actually quite strong in a fight.
It took quite an effort for Lu Wu to finally suppress the little fellow.
With his foot on the bird, Lu Wu’s demeanor was immensely arrogant, almost like after having a scuffle with the elders at Nanshan Nursing Home.
"Try fighting me? You’re nothing!"
As for this sudden performance by Lu Wu, Jiang Tianyang was entirely bewildered.
He didn’t understand why Lu Wu suddenly started brawling with the bird after a mere glance, and furthermore, he was unable to understand how Lu Wu felt so proud after defeating a bird.
Beating a bird had actually given him a sense of superiority.
What baffled Jiang Tianyang even more was that there were now clapping sounds.
It was Dudu clapping along with Little Skeleton.
While clapping, Dudu sincerely added, "Lu Wu is the strongest!"
Are you serious?
At that moment, Jiang Tianyang really wanted to grab Dudu and ask, was she seriously serious?
Was she not just making fun?
Then, he heard Lin Jianying nearby praising, "Lu Wu truly is the most talented Cultivation Master, his way of interacting with Summoned Beasts is truly unique."
Hearing this, Jiang Tianyang’s head buzzed.
’Are you sure what he’s doing over there is ’interacting’ with a Summoned Beast?’
He looked, but how did it seem like just unilateral thrashing?
At that moment, Jiang Tianyang felt this world had truly broken, and this thing was too terrifying.
Those two around Lu Wu, obviously had their brains broken from being with him for too long.
Indeed, personal worship shouldn’t be a thing.
Just as Jiang Tianyang was about to intervene, preventing Lu Wu and rescuing that poor little bird, something unexpected happened.
That very bird, which Lu Wu was suppressing and beating, suddenly started glowing.
Frightened, Lu Wu quickly got off it, and Jiang Tianyang was stupefied on the spot.
What the heck is this?
Could it be that Lu Wu wasn’t just simply beating this bird but truly ’communicating’ with it?
Could it be not the world that was wrong, but himself?
Whether it was him who was wrong, he wasn’t sure.
In any case, Lu Wu beating down that bird caused its Special Skill to be awakened.
In the light, the bird’s attributes also changed.
Originally "Ordinary" quality now jumped directly to "Black Iron."
And another skill appeared in its skill slot.
...
Unyielding·Growth (Entry-level) (Special passive skill, simply put, the more it gets beaten, the stronger it becomes—every time it’s hit, its power, quality, and skill proficiency all improve.
Ps: It isn’t strong enough yet because it hasn’t been beaten harshly enough!
Pss: It’s still growing, to maximize this skill’s effect, nutrition needs to keep up!)
