“I’m a student introduced by Avery Nelly, didn’t she mention me to you?”
The girl’s question left David Jones slightly stunned. Avery Nelly had told him that she had already informed her best friend!
“Ah… I see.” The girl’s face flushed slightly. “Please wait here for a moment while I take care of some things first.”
David Jones: “Alright.”
Yvonne Rain had a habit of not keeping her phone nearby while practicing Calm Mind.
She entered a room on the right side of the hall, found her charging phone, and unsurprisingly, saw several messages from her best friend on the screen.
“Little Rain, I recommended another talented student to you. Remember to treat me to a meal tomorrow…”
After reading the messages from Avery Nelly, Yvonne Rain couldn’t help but smile helplessly.
How could a little place like Waterland City have so many Pet training prodigies? Even the geniuses from the capital…
In the Gym’s hall.
“Sorry, I just didn’t check my phone earlier. Are you here to learn Calm Mind?” Yvonne Rain said with a smile.
“Yes, I heard from Avery Nelly that you teach high-level Calm Mind for Pets here, and it’s free.”
David Jones nodded while mentioning the word ‘free,’ his tone carried a hint of doubt.
Avery Nelly always likes to talk nonsense.” Yvonne Rain’s cold face revealed a faint smile.
“First, let me introduce myself. My name is Yvonne Rain, and I am the owner of Starlight Gym.”
Without waiting for David Jones’ response, she continued: “What Avery Nelly said about high-level Calm Mind actually has some issues. To be precise, it should be called Broken Calm Mind, but its efficiency in enhancing Pet Calm Mind can be compared to high-level Calm Mind.”
Upon hearing this, David Jones was surprised. If a Broken Calm Mind could be compared to high-level Calm Mind, then how powerful would the complete version be?
As if sensing David Jones’ thoughts, Yvonne Rain said calmly: “At first, I also thought this Calm Mind was amazing, but in reality, the method has a serious drawback.”
“What’s the drawback?” David Jones was curious.
“It can only be mastered by Pets themselves, and each Pet’s Calm Mind is slightly different, with varying rates of improvement. There’s only one constant – the Calm Mind mastered by Pets is always broken.”
After saying this, Yvonne Rain glanced at David Jones, who was visibly amazed.
“Do you think it’s amazing? But in actuality, most Pets, including my Psychic Pets, can only learn low-level Broken Calm Mind. Are you still interested in trying this Calm Mind?”
“I want to try it.” David Jones responded without hesitation.
He was certainly going to try it. Just from the introduction, he felt that this was a marvelous secret art.
Yvonne Rain’s cold face showed no surprise. She once thought her own Pet was the only exception, but reality had already dealt her a painful blow.
“First, summon your Pet. The comprehension of this Calm Mind method requires a certain level of Psychic Power from the Pet.”
Without saying more, David directly summoned the resting Rainbow from his Star Ring.
“A Class II Arcane Star? Coldjade Snake!” Yvonne Rain looked at the Coldjade Snake that appeared in David Jones’ arms, her eyes filled with a touch of surprise.
As expected, she couldn’t have too high expectations from the prodigies introduced by Avery Nelly. She shook her head secretly in her mind – Waterland City was just too small after all!
“Remember to comfort its mood. It might get a little agitated when I use Psychic Power to sense it.” After being disappointed, Yvonne Rain said to David Jones.
“Okay.”
David Jones suddenly felt a faint scent coming from in front of him.
He stroked Rainbow’s body with one hand, while comforting the agitated Rainbow in his arms through mental communication with the other.
“An Ice-type Coldjade Snake that can also use Psychic Power, and its Psychic Power is already up to standard.” After a careful examination, Yvonne Rain spoke approvingly.
“So, can Rainbow start learning Calm Mind now?” Hearing this, David Jones asked excitedly.bender
“Of course, but let me make one thing clear first – learning for free does have conditions.” Yvonne Rain suddenly said, glancing at David Jones beside her.
David Jones nodded slightly, a look of relief in his eyes. Indeed, there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
But it was just as well. If he were to let Rainbow practice a high-level Calm Mind that he got for free, he would be a bit apprehensive.
“I only have one condition. After your Pet has completed its comprehension, you must record the Calm Mind it has understood and give it to me right away.” Yvonne Rain stared directly at David Jones, her tone somewhat relaxed.
“Of course, that’s only natural.” David Jones immediately agreed.
He didn’t expect Yvonne Rain’s condition to be so simple!
Seeing David Jones happily agreeing, a faint smile appeared on Yvonne Rain’s delicate cheeks.
If there were more low-level Calm Minds, perhaps she would be able to unlock the secret hidden in the Star Stone in the future.
Yvonne Rain led David Jones to the backyard of the Gym.
First to enter David Jones’ sight were the green bricks paving the ground, and the oddly shaped boulder in the center of the yard.
“Let your Coldjade Snake use Psychic Power to touch that Star Stone, and it will comprehend its Calm Mind.” Yvonne Rain said directly, without any concealment in her tone.
A legacy-type Calm Mind? Looking at the bizarre boulder in front of him, David Jones nervously nodded.
“Focus and use Psychic Power to sense that stone.” Pointing at the strange stone in the distance, David Jones conveyed his thoughts to Rainbow.
“Yiya.” (* “ ) (No problem.)
Rainbow’s eyes and the ice crystal on her head immediately emitted intertwined blue and white light. Then, she carefully controlled her Psychic Power to approach the stone that had been emitting a strange attraction.
The moment her Psychic Power touched the stone, a white light burst forth from the Star Stone before her eyes.
Seeing this, David Jones quickly covered his eyes with his hands, and constantly felt Rainbow’s mental state through their Contract.
The next second, the light disappeared.
“Yiyi ya yiya!” ( (There’s so much new stuff in my mind!)
Feeling Rainbow’s astonishment through the Contract, David Jones’ spirits surged.
So, this Calm Mind technique was so easy to comprehend!
“You should let your Pet record the Calm Mind it just realized.” Reminding the smiling David Jones, Yvonne Rain took out paper and pen from her Star Ring and handed them to him.
She had seen many such scenes of receiving legacy and found nothing extraordinary in it.
“Alright.” David Jones took the paper and pen from Yvonne Rain’s hand and held the still somewhat dazed Rainbow in his arms.
“Rainbow, later on, write down the Calm Mind you just comprehended.”
“Yiya!” (Okay!)
