The True Young Master Saves the Soul Pet World by Eating Melons – CH76

Chapter 76: Looking for a Turtle

That makes sense. I’d better look around and see which turtle here suits me.

First, I want a Longevity Turtle. But most of the Longevity Turtles here are hybrids.

Of course, hybrids are fine. The ones placed here for students to contract are basically all successful hybrids.

The failed hybrids are raised in various corners of the academy for everyone to admire and play with.

They’re basically kept as pets. That’s part of the academy’s characteristics.

I see on the system panel that these turtles all look pretty good. Guagua, do you have any recommendations?

[I think that Devouring Turtle over there is quite good!]

Devouring Turtle? That name sounds more suitable for Xuanxuan.

Yu Beixuan: ??? Thanks, Er’er, for always thinking of me!

[Not entirely suitable. Although both it and Yu Beixuan are good at devouring, Yu Beixuan is dark-attribute—the principle being that darkness can swallow everything.]

[That turtle’s full name should be Chaos Devouring Turtle. It’s all-attribute, focused on inclusivity—it can absorb anything. Nutritionally speaking, it’s more balanced than either you or Yu Beixuan.]

“… ”

Si Er was a little speechless, yet he still felt that this Chaos Devouring Turtle sounded amazing.

So can I contract this one?

Guagua fell silent instantly.

[Probably not. It wants to find a soul master who’s as nutritionally balanced as it is.]

Then why did you recommend it to me? Guagua, are you messing with me?

[No, no. I was just a bit envious of its all-attribute nature and couldn’t resist recommending it.]

[But don’t worry. It’s already lived nine thousand years and still hasn’t found a suitable soul master. It probably won’t encounter one in the future either…]

Si Er was shocked.

Why would that reassure me? Am I some kind of bad person?

Although I’m a bit disappointed I can’t contract it, I never wished for it to grow old alone!

If it’s waited until now, that means it also longs for companionship. We should wish it all the best and that its wishes come true.

[Alright then. I’ll wish it finds the soul master it truly wants as soon as possible.]

After offering that blessing, Guagua quickly changed the subject.

[Let’s look at the next turtle. There are many fascinating ones here.]

[For example, the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Turtle in front of you…]

Sorry, I’ve only heard of the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python.

[I’ve heard of it too. Their names sound similar, but they’re different species. Even if the names are close, their abilities are worlds apart.]

[The Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python truly has terrifying combat power. But the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Turtle… it merely has a dream of swallowing the heavens.]

Si Er: …

[Though everyone should have dreams—even if this turtle’s dream will never come true.]

[But that’s okay! Even if it can’t realize its dream, it can let everyone dream together and experience how wonderful its dream is!]

Huh? So it’s like Infinite Tsukuyomi?

Guagua grew curious.

[What’s Infinite Tsukuyomi?]

It’s also something that makes everyone dream together, letting each person sleep in their most beautiful illusion.

[Oh. Then Infinite Tsukuyomi is far stronger than the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Turtle’s Heaven-Swallowing Dream.]

[This turtle’s dream makes everyone swallow the heavens together. But the heavens are so vast that ordinary people can’t swallow them. So they end up dreaming of choking to death, bursting from overeating, or being struck dead by heavenly lightning before taking more than a couple bites!]

[Those who die within the dream are very difficult to awaken. Either you ask the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Turtle for help directly, or you use other special methods.]

[But those methods all require a considerable price.]

Si Er stared at the rainbow-colored turtle in shock. Who would have thought?

He had assumed it was just a colorful, low-threat “Mary Sue” type existence—but it actually wanted to swallow the heavens!

And it could drag so many people into dreaming with it. Worse still, the aftereffects of those dreams were severe.

“Forget it, forget it. I don’t think this turtle suits me. It’s a bit scary.”

[Er’er, aren’t you going to reconsider? I think it seems quite interested in you.]

“But I’m not interested in it, thank you!”

Si Er only wanted to stay far away from that Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Turtle, lest he accidentally fall into its trap.

However, the turtle clearly lacked self-awareness and kept inching determinedly toward Si Er.

Halfway there, a black figure suddenly flashed past. Two claws grabbed the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Turtle and flung it far away. In no time at all, it disappeared without a trace.

“Was that you helping me, Xuanxuan?” Si Er asked curiously as he leaned closer to Yu Beixuan.

Yu Beixuan nodded gently. With Guagua around, there was no way he could hide it anyway.

Besides, he didn’t need to hide it.

If he liked Er’er, then Er’er had to know his good points. Otherwise, wouldn’t he be liking him in vain?

Si Er beamed, his eyes curving into crescent moons. “Xuanxuan, thank you.”

“There’s no need to thank me,” Yu Beixuan said softly. “Er’er is my best friend. This is what I should do.”

“As long as it’s something Er’er doesn’t like, I’ll do my best to stop it.”

“If Er’er is happy, next time let Big Brother roast a few more small dried fish for Yu Bei Tiger.”

“Okay!” Si Er agreed immediately, though his thoughts drifted elsewhere.

Best friend? Did I just get handed a friend card?

Well, friend card it is. Xuanxuan isn’t from Earth anyway—he probably doesn’t know that meme.

Anyway, we are best friends right now!

Si Er didn’t think anything was wrong. After all, Yu Beixuan had always been solitary. Aside from the Yu family, Si Er truly was the most special to him.

Still, Xuanxuan really is such a good companion. He’s so thoughtful!

Meanwhile, Yu Beixuan felt puzzled. What did “friend card” mean?

Was calling them good friends considered giving someone a friend card?

He couldn’t help but start imagining—when would he finally be able to give Er’er a “lover card”?

[Er’er, look! There’s a light-attribute turtle egg over there!]

“Where? Where?”

Si Er’s attention was instantly drawn away.

[Right there—where the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Turtle was just thrown. I glanced over out of curiosity and discovered the turtle egg most suited to you!]

[It hid itself extremely well—not leaking even a trace of light aura.]

[But it’s still young. That’s normal.]

“How young?”

Si Er asked inwardly while standing on tiptoe to look around.

[Egg age: 99.]

“What? Ninety-nine years old? That’s young?”

[Compared to that Chaos Devouring Turtle just now, isn’t it extremely young? It might not even have lived through a full fraction of its lifespan yet.]

[Besides, age is normally counted after hatching. As an egg, it’s older than you—but once it hatches, it’ll be a little baby.]

[And I think all your soul pets—including me—are too young! You need an older one to steady the scene.]

[But if we don’t encounter the right one, there’s nothing we can do. That turtle egg is excellent—definitely a high-potential investment.]

[It’s the egg of a Bright Sacred Longevity Turtle! Who knows where it came from.]

[The Bright Sacred Longevity Turtle is the longevity turtle among longevity turtles. Even without cultivation, after hatching it could live ninety-nine times ninety-nine years with no problem.]

[However, the Ten Thousand Turtles Pool is a bit too dark for it—it’s not suitable for its growth. If you don’t take it away, it could stay here for ninety-nine times ninety-nine years and still never hatch.]

So if I take it out, will it hatch quickly?

[Not exactly. Because it’s lazy.]

[This kind of turtle likes to rely on basking in all kinds of light to increase its cultivation. If you expect it to cultivate diligently on its own, it simply can’t be bothered.]
