Su Bai was taken aback: Little Tortoise?

  Could the system be referring to that turtle his dad had been raising for three months?

  I don't believe it! My first tamed beast is actually a turtle?

  The key point is, it's embarrassing!

  If others found out that my superpower is taming turtles, wouldn't they ugh their heads off?

  Being cool is a lifelong pursuit!

  But on second thought, given my current strength, there's no chance of taming fierce beasts on the Myriad Races Battlefield anyway. Having this little turtle to prove my identity as a superpowered individual means I can get a direct admission to the Martial Academy.

  Once at the Martial Academy, I can use the school's resources to get myself a more impressive beast.

  This isn't a loss, so Su Bai silently thought, "Tame!"

  [Ding, successfully tamed Little Tortoise. The host can check Little Tortoise's attributes through the system.]

  "Check Little Tortoise's attributes!"

  Su Bai silently responded.

  [Tamed Beast: Little Tortoise]

  [Level: Basic Beginner (Possesses a certain Basalt Sacred Beast Bloodline, can grow infinitely, ultimately sying gods!)]

  [Physique: 1]

  [Defense: 3]

  [Speed: 1]

  [Ability: Tortoise Shell Defense]

  [Evolution Method: Eating]

  Whoa! It actually has the Basalt Sacred Beast Bloodline? Infinite growth!

  And the evolution method is just eating, that's amazing!

  The little tortoise I used to look down on turned out to be so impressive.

  No need to change it, definitely not changing it!

  Just as Su Bai was getting a bit excited, wanting to study this future sacred beast, he heard his sister's voice from behind.

  "Su Bai, why are you drooling over Dad's little tortoise? If you dare to stew it, Dad will stew you!"

  Su Bai's sister, named Su Xiaomei, is four years younger than Su Bai and is currently in middle school. She's the apple of the family's eye, usually well-behaved, but loves to tattletale on Su Bai to their parents.

  Dad named the little tortoise Little Eight, but Su Bai usually calls it Little Tortoise.

  Su Bai cleared his throat and replied, "Ahem... What are you talking about? Do you think I'm like you, only thinking about food all day? By the way, Xiaomei, do you know where Dad put Little Eight's feed?"

  Since the system said the evolution method for the little tortoise is feeding, Su Bai wanted to test the little tortoise's evolution mechanism.

  "What? So in your heart, I'm just a foodie. Su Bai, I'm so disappointed in you! I don't know!" Su Xiaomei pouted.

  Seeing this, Su Bai felt a headache coming on and had no choice but to coax her:"Alright, Xiaomei is the best, quickly tell me where Dad put Little Eight's feed."

  "Hmph, I won't! Even if you beg me, I won't tell you!"

  Seeing her expression, Su Bai knew what she was thinking and reluctantly pulled out five yuan from his pocket.

  "Here, this is your brother's st bit of money, now can you tell me?"

  Xiaomei, seeing the money, happily took the five yuan from Su Bai's hand and then ran off: "I don't know where the little tortoise's feed is, find it yourself! Hahaha."

  With that, Su Xiaomei dashed into her room and locked the door behind her.

  Faced with Xiaomei's mischief, Su Bai was helpless and had no choice but to look for the feed himself.

  But just as he turned around, he found that the little tortoise had taken advantage of his chat with his sister to climb out of the tank.

  It had even found the feed bag, torn a hole in it, and scattered the feed all over the floor!

  "You little beast, what are you doing!"

  Just as he was about to move the little tortoise away, Su Bai stopped in his tracks.

  In less than a minute, the little tortoise had eaten all the scattered feed!

  Originally, a bag of feed weighed fifteen pounds, and after being fed by Dad for three months, there were still about ten pounds left. The little tortoise didn't eat much, not even five pounds in three months.

  But now, good heavens!

  In just a few bites, ten pounds of feed went into the tortoise's mouth.

  After forming a contract, this one's appetite is so huge, ten pounds of tortoise feed is much bigger than the little tortoise itself.

  Is this a Basalt? This is a bottomless pit!

  After eating.

  The little tortoise waddled over to Su Bai on its short legs, and when it reached him, it rubbed its little head against Su Bai's shoe.

  Such an affectionate scene was truly rare.

  Tortoises are naturally afraid of people, and even when Dad, who had raised it for three months, wanted to touch it, it would shrink its limbs and head into its shell in fear, let alone be so affectionate with people.

  Su Bai carefully observed the little tortoise at his feet, deep in thought.

  After eating so much, why isn't there any change?

  Does this thing just eat and not grow?

  While Su Bai was lost in thought, the little tortoise wriggled its body, slowly crawling back to the feed bag, patting it with its front paws, and opening and closing its mouth as if trying to say something to Su Bai.

  "Roar roar roar~"

  Since the little tortoise didn't have vocal cords, it couldn't make specific sounds, only expressing its thoughts to Su Bai in this way.

  But strangely, Su Bai actually understood: "You just ate ten pounds of feed and you're still not full?"

  Whether out of shyness or fear from Su Bai's questioning, the little tortoise's head retracted halfway into its shell, but it still looked at Su Bai with pitiful eyes.

  Seeing the little tortoise looking at him as if a child relying on its father, Su Bai could only sigh helplessly and go find food for the little tortoise.

  Su Bai also wanted to see the little tortoise's limits, so he took out all the raw meat and leftovers from the fridge and pced them in front of Little Tortoise.

  The little tortoise wasn't picky, basically eating whatever Su Bai gave it. After about ten minutes, more than a pound of pork and four ptes of leftovers were eaten clean.

  The little tortoise, still unsatisfied, even stuck out its tongue to lick the ptes clean, then looked at Su Bai with a pitiful gaze again.

  "Roar roar roar~"

  Su Bai ignored the little tortoise's roars and focused on examining it.

  The little tortoise was noticeably rger than before!

  Though not much bigger, it was still quite noticeable. It was originally only half the size of a palm, but now it was as big as a rge bowl!

  Most importantly, Su Bai could clearly feel that as the little tortoise's size increased, his own body seemed to be getting stronger too.

  A very faint sense of power kept emerging from deep within his body.

  With this encouragement, Su Bai was instantly motivated, quickly running to the kitchen to bring out everything edible in the house.

  Over twenty pounds of rice, five pounds of flour, three pounds of vegetables, and some bread.

  "Today, I'll let you eat to your heart's content!"

  Ten minutes ter, the rice was gone.

  Two minutes ter, the flour was gone.

  One minute ter, the vegetables and bread were gone.

  As the little tortoise grew rger, its eating speed also increased.

  But...

  Su Bai's right eyelid twitched.

  "It has eaten almost fifty pounds of food and still isn't full?"

  "Roar roar roar~"

  The little tortoise's front paws continued to pat the pte, as if its stomach was a bottomless pit, never getting full no matter how much it ate.

  "With your appetite, I can't afford to keep you. I might as well stew you and eat you!"

  Under Su Bai's threat, the little tortoise retracted its head, obediently stopped patting the pte, and waddled over to Su Bai, rubbing its little head against him.

  As if saying: I won't eat anymore, please don't be angry, master!

  Watching the little tortoise acting cute at his feet, Su Bai smiled helplessly.

  Su Bai couldn't really stew the little tortoise, after all, it had the Basalt Bloodline!

  But this thing really burned money.

  Everything edible in the house had been eaten by the little tortoise, even the rice for his parents to cook dinner was gone.

  Su Bai usually didn't have much pocket money, and even the money for internet cafes was saved from his lunch. Now he had to find a way to support a bottomless pit of a little tortoise.

  Suddenly, Su Bai realized a ridiculous problem.

  The first issue he faced wasn't how to become stronger.

  But poverty!

  Who could he compin to about this?
