While sitting in the room, Li Pu was examining the panels of his three summoned beasts.

After coming out of the Gagag Shark Gobi that day, he went to redeem the scarecrows.

It turned out that these three guys hadn't committed any major offenses, just beat up a few other people's summoned beasts.

Summoned beasts are full of youthful vigor, and it's common for them to get into fights at the slightest disagreement.

In contrast, the Houndbeast detained with them that day was really excessive, reportedly demolishing an entire floor of the boys' dormitory.

After coming out, Li Pu fused [Gill Technique] with [Willpower], resulting in a new function.

[Willpower]: Immunity to Fear/Illusion Technique/Poison/Slowness/Binding/Mental Attacks, substantial increase in strength, underwater breathing

During these 25 days, the scarecrow also reincarnated three times, with the panel as follows:

Scarecrow: 0 (11) reincarnations, LV30, Listening to the Wind

Strength: 1711, F

Attributes: 10 Wood

Abilities: [Gratitude][Water Film][Forget][Dragon Slayer][Weeds]

Skills: [LV3 Snail Grass (C)][LV2→LV5 Entangle (B)][LV3 Willpower (A)][LV3 Small Fireball (B)][LV1 Godzilla's Strength (S)]

Artifacts: [Five Elements Ring (S)][Iron Bone (A)]

To this point, the scarecrow has completed (?) 11 reincarnations.

The upgrade of [Entangle] wasn't because Li Pu obtained a B-level skill light orb.

Instead, it was by giving the scarecrow a reincarnation, which brought about a new opportunity.

The material used for the 9th reincarnation was a vine-like object plucked from his grandfather.

Since it looked like a plant, he decided to try throwing it into the solution.

Unexpectedly, not only did it allow the scarecrow to complete its reincarnation, but it also upgraded [Entangle] by one level.

In this way, Li Pu opened up a new avenue of thought.

Other summoned beasts might also achieve skill level enhancements upon reincarnation.

Before this, the scarecrow didn't encounter this, but now it seems it was just due to a lack of suitable materials.

That vine, in fact, was taken to the Imperial University trading station for appraisal before use. Although the professionals couldn't determine the exact species, they could identify it as a common B-level material.

For the 10th and 11th reincarnations, Li Pu used up the remaining vines, and it unexpectedly upgraded the scarecrow's [Entangle] to LV5.

From LV2 to LV5, [Entangle] underwent significant changes.

He experimented a bit, noting that the toughness was notably improved.

Where previously Li Pu needed 90% of his strength to break it, now he needed 180%—toughness nearly doubled.

For reference, Li Pu considers himself to have 100% strength.

Additionally, there is enhanced flexibility; now the vine can even be used to hold chopsticks, though it never uses chopsticks and always uses hands.

Without rooting, it can already weave a vine scarecrow and control it flexibly.

In any case, the skill [Entangle] has received a tremendous boost in all aspects.

After all, it's an LV5 skill; it can't be underwhelming.

One should know that an LV5 skill is something usually achievable by a 4th cycle peak or a 5th cycle summoned beast.

Typical 3rd cycle summoned beasts would struggle to improve even with light orb support due to bodily potential limits.

This discovery showed Li Pu another way to strengthen the scarecrow.

There's no necessity to always seek new skills or innate ability fusions; materially improving all skills also makes for great strength.

Now, the scarecrow's inherent characteristics allow it to upgrade even without skill light orbs.

When there's a chance, he muses about finding a Godzilla to toss into the solution (?), to see if it would upgrade [Godzilla's Strength].

As for Bubu, it was brought to max level through using relevant materials for Sacrifice.

Radish: 2 reincarnations, LV50, Wisdom

Strength: 703, B+

Attributes: 3 Fire 3 Water 4 Swallow

Abilities: [Throwing Bag][Energy Explosion][Swallowing Barrier]

Skills: [LV2 Vigor Strike (C)][LV2 Energy Feedback (A+)][LV2 Quick Step (C)][LV2 Dance of Confusion (A)][LV2 Ghost Step (A+)][LV2 Big Swallow (B+)][LV1→LV2 Openly Swallow (A)]

Artifacts: [Golden Armor (C)][Magma Heart (C)]

Its most significant enhancement was leveling [Openly Swallow] to LV2.

This was improved using an A-level skill light orb, costing Li Pu quite a bit of money.

Now, with Bubu at max level, Li Pu plans to figure out how to reincarnate it after the monthly exam.

In his understanding, there's no shortage of main materials for reincarnation.

The related item for [Openly Swallow], a mysterious beast skull taken from his grandfather, is still there.

After contributing the skill, it merely thinned the beast's bone shell a little.

Logically, offering a swallow attribute skill indicates the beast is inherently a swallowing-type monster.

This item was also appraised by Li Pu.

The professionals were startled when the appraisal result turned out to be an A+ level material.

Li Pu even curiously asked about its price, and they quoted a lucky number of 660,000.

However, he naturally wouldn't sell it as Bubu's reincarnation depends on it.

Lastly, the Ugly Wolf is also maxed out.

Chou Bo: 2 reincarnations, LV50, Wind Chaser

Strength: 537, A

Attributes: 5 Dark 5 Cloud 3 Dragon

Abilities: [Cloud Body][Thunder Storage]

Skills: [LV2 Source of Electricity (C)][LV2 Wind Thunder Roar (A+)][LV2 Black Dragon Transformation (A)][LV1→LV2 Backup Battery]
