Beast Taming Era: I Became Groudon

Chapter 16 It's time to get rich
"I'm afraid that won't work, Shallot."

Hearing this, Xu Tingting said in embarrassment: "All dormitories are assigned, you can't choose one yourself. If it really doesn't work, you can go upstairs at night. It's the same thing."

If students could choose their own dormitories, wouldn't the school be in chaos? Who would want to live in such a high place?
"First of all, you have to call me Lord Divine Beast, and don't call me Little Congcong." Zhong Cong pointed at Xu Tingting with his claws and said.

What is Xiaocongcong? How is he small?

Besides, it's only been a few minutes? You're already giving him nicknames.

Call him Master Divine Beast.

"Xiao Congcong, we are partners now. How can we call our partners "divine beasts"?" Xu Tingting squatted down and said to Zhong Cong with a smile: "And you are really short now."

As he said this, he gestured with his hands, indicating that he was taller than Zhong Cong even when he squatted down.

"Damn it..."

Seeing the other party like this, Zhong Cong immediately became anxious, jumped onto the table, looked at Xu Tingting and said: "I don't care, you must change your name immediately, otherwise our friendship will end here."

"I am a divine beast, a divine beast. Do you know how big of a bargain you got?"

"I don't know." Xu Tingting shook her head and said, "But we are now partners, so of course we have to work hard. If it doesn't work, how about I call you Congcong?"

"Come on, you might as well call me Groudon." Zhong Cong rolled his eyes.

As expected, the names given to girls are all weird, and it is impossible to give them normal names.

"Then I'll call you Groudon." Xu Tingting said with a smile.

"That's more like it." After hearing this address, Zhong Cong felt much better and said:
"Okay, classmate Tingting. Let's get back to the point. How can I change dormitories in your school? You don't really want me to stay on the sixth floor every day, do you?"

"If my growth rate is slow, you will suffer a lot."

Is it okay to make him stay on the ground floor from morning to night and then go to the 6th floor? It would be better for him to move directly to the dormitory on the 1st floor.

"Yes, there is, but it will be a bit troublesome." Xu Tingting said with some embarrassment after hearing this.

"What's the trouble?" Zhong Cong said when he saw this.

Trouble means that the problem can be solved. If you don’t even mention the trouble, then there is no way the problem can be solved.

"As long as you rank in the top three in this sophomore selection competition, you can apply for a single dormitory at school."

“But many sophomores have already signed contracts to tamer beasts. If we want to get a top three score, it may be a little difficult.” Xu Tingting said, sighing.

Although everyone is a sophomore, some of them are now 20 years old, and some are years old.

And considering that one can contract a beast taming contract at the age of eighteen, these people are at least five or six years ahead of her.

Therefore, it may be difficult to get a good spot in this competition.

"How long will it take for the competition to start?" Zhong Cong asked while crossing his short legs after hearing this.

If you have more time? You can still try again.

If the time is short, then there is no way. It is true that he is a divine beast, but he is not so outrageous that he will be killed in seconds when encountering any beast.

It will be fine if he waits for two or three years to grow.

"Two months to go."

Xu Tingting said, "Grawo, you don't really want to participate, do you? You won't grow much in two months, and our opponents are those guys who are five or six years ahead of the beastmaster."

"Why don't you join? How do you know if you can do it if you don't give it a try?" Hearing this, Groudon trembled his short legs and said, "Aren't they just guys who signed the contract four or five years earlier than you? If they were really good, they would have skipped a grade and graduated by now. How could they still be staying here?"

"So their strength is probably not that high. We don't have to worry at all."

"As long as I work hard in these two months, I will definitely be able to deal with them."

"Really? Groudon." Xu Tingting said excitedly after hearing it.

"Yes, but the prerequisite is that I have to develop better. Do you have any treasure that can quickly increase my strength, or something that can make me grow faster?"

"This way, I will be more confident about the competition in two months." Zhong Cong looked at Xu Tingting and asked.

The atmosphere has built up to this point, it's time for the other party to bring out any good stuff they have.

The faster he grows, the greater the benefits the other party can get.

It's time to spend money on him, don't save money.

The longer money is kept, the more it depreciates. The most important thing is to become stronger.

"Um, I have some fire-attributed crystals. Do you want some Groudon?" Looking at Zhong Cong who was asking her for resources, Xu Tingting asked after a few seconds of silence.

She doesn't have any treasures from heaven or anything that increases her growth rate.

However, she still has the "fire crystal", a specialty of lava.

"Crystal with fire attribute? Give it to me quickly. Just give me all the resources with fire and earth attributes." Upon hearing this, Zhong Cong immediately urged.

Why does he live under someone else's roof? Isn't it just for resources?

Otherwise, he would have dug a hole and escaped to work on his own.

"Okay." Xu Tingting nodded in response after hearing this, and walked towards the safe in the room.

Seeing this, Zhong Cong immediately followed suit and was about to spend the money. So excited.

"click"

"click"

As the door of the box was opened, the red stone emitting red light made Xu Tingting, who was squatting down, blush.

"nice one."

Feeling the abundant energy in the fire crystal, Zhong Cong's eyes lit up.

"Grawo, here's a small fire crystal for you. Hold it and absorb it slowly." Xu Tingting said as she opened the safe door, took out a small fire crystal and handed it to Zhong Cong.

Zhong Cong was stunned when he saw this and said, "Student Tingting, I have to criticize you here. How can you give me such a small piece of crystal? It's not even enough for me to chew."

"There is no reward without hard work. Don't be reluctant to part with these things. When I become powerful in the future, I will earn back all the resources."

There is such a big box of fire crystals, and you only give him such a small piece. Are you treating a beggar like that?
Is she planning to keep it for raising other animals?

"Uh, Groudon, you misunderstood." Xu Tingting, who was stunned by Zhong Cong's series of words, replied:

"I was afraid that you couldn't bear the energy of the Fire Crystal, so I only gave you a small piece. And you can't eat the Fire Crystal, it will explode."

"It's nothing, it's just an explosion, right? It's nothing."

Zhong Cong pressed the door of the safe and said, "I am a divine beast. This explosion can't hurt me."

"Leave these fire crystals to me. I promise that they will help you shine in two months and make you a celebrity in the entire school."

"Can……"

Xu Tingting was about to say something when she heard this, but she saw Zhong Cong quickly grab a palm-sized fire crystal and stuff it into her mouth.

"Click"

A crisp sound was heard, and Xu Tingting saw the fire crystal stone. The dazzling light dimmed instantly.

"It's really good. There's quite a lot of energy in it."

"It's equivalent to a week's practice for me." Zhong Cong said happily while chewing on the fire crystal.

It really feels good to spend money, and it really is the right decision to stay.

"Groudon, are you really feeling okay?" Xu Tingting, who was standing by, widened her eyes when she saw this scene.

It was the first time for her to see a beast tamer using fire crystals to practice in this way.

"Yes, yes." Zhong Cong nodded and said, "Classmate Tingting, if you have nothing to do, go to sleep first. I will continue to chew these fire crystals. After eating them, I will become stronger."

As he said this, he continued to eat.

Seeing this, Xu Tingting looked at Zhong Cong who was sitting in front of the safe and gnawing on the fire crystal, and then looked at the marble-sized fire crystal in her hand.

He sighed and sat down on the sofa, looking at Zhong Cong.

She didn't feel sorry for the fire crystals she had saved for so many years. Anyway, these fire crystals were going to be used for the beasts she had contracted. She was just worried that Zhong Cong would get an upset stomach after eating them.

After all, the energy inside the fire crystal is still very violent.
