Not long after, the door to the grooming room swung open.
The four people who heard the commotion halted their activities, and they all walked out from the resting room together. Liu Xue, who was at the forefront, quickly approached Xu Ran, “My Psychic Rat…
■■It’s been washed and groomed already.” Xu Ran, holding a curled up body of a behaved fluffy white ball, passed it into Liu Xue’s hands.
“Oh my gosh!”
Liu Xue gasped, looking at the Psychic Rat in her palm, its fur shimmering under the light, a look of pure shock on her face.
“This is my Psychic Rat?!”
No wonder she was so surprised. The difference between the Psychic Rat before and after the grooming was quite noticeable.
Before the grooming, it was a dirty ball of fur. After the grooming, the Psychic Rat’s fur became fluffier, but it didn’t explode outwards in all directions, instead outlining the body of the Psychic Rat following the pattern of the fur. This distinct change turned the unremarkable Psychic Rat into an adorable creature, making anyone want to give it a hug.
■■As long as you’re satisfied.” Xu Ran chuckled, “Our shop’s washing and protection service might be expensive, but it’s worth every penny.”
“It’S indeed worth it.” Liu Xue nodded seriously.
At this moment, through the Beast Taming Contract, the Psychic Rat was fussing to have another wash and grooming session!
Being liked so much by a Pet Beast means it must have a significant boost for the Pet Beast’s condition.
“Come on and wash my Three-armed Demon Ape!” Yan Fan couldn’t sit still anymore, patting his ape-like creature with an extra arm on its back, covered in red fur and as tall as a man, eager to have a go.
Having seen the grooming of the Psychic Rat earlier, he totally believed what Liu Gu had said.
“Hold on!” Liu Xue, who came back to her senses, glared at Yan Fan, My Psychic Rat has finished his bath, so naturally it’s my Sky Falcon’s turn next.” She patted the silver-white falcon that was following behind her and looked at Xu Ran with a beaming smile, “Little boss, please!”
“No problem.”
“The Cold Scale Python is groomed.”
Xu Ran, who had walked out of the grooming room, spoke loudly. Behind him, a python as thick as a thigh, whose head was held high up to a person’s height and covered in beautifully patterned scales, followed contentedly.
“Haha, I have never seen my Cold Scale Python look so majestic before.” Zhang Yun, who had been waiting, laughed heartily, walked over quickly and hugged his Pet Beast, “Old buddy, how does it feel?”
“Hisss~”
The Cold Scale Python, vibrating its tongue, swayed its body around and playfully nudged Zhang Yun using its head, clearly looking very excited.
Obviously, Xu Ran’s grooming made it feel exceptionally good.
“Little boss, good job today.” Zhang Yun generously paid for his two medium-sized pet beasts’ grooming and laughed, “Grooming so many pet beasts in one breath is no easy task.”
“It’s my duty.” Xu Ran looked a little tired, but his eyes shone brightly.

[Lottery]
The four members of the Tiger Hunting Squad were all Elite Level Beast Masters, each of them contracting two Pet Beasts.
Other than the Sea Wave Flower that had already been taken care of yesterday, and which didn’t require further care since it only served in healing and did not get dirty in today’s battle, Xu Ran cleaned all the other seven Pet Beasts. Adding to the previous care he had given to the Colorful Cloud Parrot, Xu Ran had taken care of eight Pet Beasts in one go today. He was truly a model of hard work.
Previously, Plucking Fur would only yield a One Star Skill, but after leveling Plucking Fur up to C-Level, he acquired a Two-star Skill from it for the first time!
Although this Two Stars Skill couldn’t actually be taught yet due to attribute and compatibility reasons, Xu Ran was still filled with anticipation about the future.
If Plucking Fur kept leveling up, could he possibly acquire Three Star, Four Star, or even Five Star Skills through it?
The future seemed bright indeed!
Xu Ran’s gaze then fell on the system tasks.
Novice Task 2, which he had been unable to complete before, was finally finished now.
Claim it!
As Xu Ran’s mind moved, the Novice Task 2 faded quickly.
He gained 100 points of System Upgrade Experience, and two new lines of small characters rose before his eyes.
[Congratulations to Host for acquiring system skill [Drug Application].] [[Drug Application] is a skill bound to Foster Care. Host can continually gain physical points when feeding fostered Pet Beasts, and use them to improve his Contract Pet Beast.]
As expected, Drug Application was not a Grooming Skill, but a Foster Care Skill. Foster Care referred to taking care of Pet Beasts that other Beast Masters temporarily left at the shop. It mainly involved providing a comfortable dwelling and fitting food.
According to the skill description, this skill could be used while feeding Pet Beasts to gain physical points, which could then be used to improve his contracted beast, Ziyun.
As for what the physical points would improve…
Unexpectedly, it should be the progress bar behind the Growth Stage?
With this thought, Xu Ran’s heartbeat sped up involuntarily.
If the progress bar was full, then Ziyun could advance to the next level. Before, he had only been able to slowly improve physical fitness through training, but now it seemed there was a more effective way.
He had to test it out as soon as possible!
The matter was urgent. He would find a fostered Pet Beast to test it out…
Xu Ran’s smile vanished.
The Starfire Foster Shop didn’t have a Foster Care Service.
He’d almost forgotten this big problem!
As soon as Novice Task 2 disappeared and new tasks appeared.
[Novice Task 3: Be Self-Sufficient]
Task Description: Please personally go to the designated area outside Qingzhou City and collect one hundred pounds of the essential Pet Beast feeding resource —Green Jade Fruit.

[Novice Task 4: Growing and Strengthening]

C-Level.
Task Reward: System Skill [Pranks], System Upgrade Experience +300]
The smile returned to Xu Ran’s face.
Two tasks at once, and most importantly he finally knew how to activate the Foster Care function.
“Uh…young boss?” Zhang Yun couldn’t help but speak, looking at Xu Ran’s continuously changing expression, “Are you alright?
“I’m fine.” Xu Ran took a deep breath and shook his head.
“That’s good, then we’ll leave first, thanks for today, young boss.” Zhang Yun smiled, turned around with the other three people, and prepared to leave. “Team Leader Zhang, please wait!” Xu Ran quickly called out, “I might need to ask you for a favor, or rather…”
‘■I’ll need to ask the Tiger Hunting Squad for some help..”
