The Clear Heart Technique has the effect of calming the heart and mind. Reciting it can dispel irritability, soothe the mood, eliminate distractions within the body, make thinking clear, and improve focus and memory.

Reciting the Clear Heart Technique for a long time can be beneficial for controlling the mood and is of great assistance in entering a meditative state.

Li Cunxu learned the Clear Heart Technique to resist the intrusive evil thoughts of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Evil God. He is tormented by them now, even with his eyes closed, hearing others' voices reminds him of malicious acts like beheadings.

Gold and jade mines are not found just by digging. After half a month, there is still no sign of gold or jade mines.

The first batch of gold and jade potion was refined, but it only yielded sixteen drops, not even enough for a sip.

"Ugh! Who's going to drink this little amount?"

Taking gold and jade potion for forty-nine days enables one to acquire the skill [Body of Gold and Jade]. At least one hundred drops per day are needed to meet the standard for acquiring the skill.

Knock knock~

A knock on the door sounded.

"Manager, someone is here looking to challenge you to a pet duel."

"Duel? Who is it? Forget it, I'm not interested, help me reject them."

After a while.

"Manager, you should come out and take a look. They refuse to leave."

Li Cunxu got up and went to the ranch gate with the assistance of the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter.

He still hasn't adapted to walking as a blind person. Although he bought a blind man's cane, he hasn't mastered it yet.

"What happened to you?"

The person saw the blindfold on Li Cunxu's eyes and asked in surprise.

Li Cunxu found the voice somewhat familiar. He seemed to have heard it somewhere, but where exactly? He couldn't remember.

First, he was sure the person wasn't a woman because it was a man's voice.

"It's nothing, my eyes are temporarily having a minor issue, making it difficult to open them," Li Cunxu said. "I can't see right now, could you kindly tell me who you are and why you're challenging me to a duel? I'm not some impressive Beast Master. Oh, no, according to the league's professional classification, I'm not even considered a Beast Master, just a keeper of contracted pets."

"It's me, Zhang Shuihuo. I lost to you last time at the Strongest Rookie Cup. I have a bit of a knot in my heart and want to challenge you to win it back. However, I'm not here empty-handed for the duel. I've brought a gift, a Crown of Fire dropped by the Fire Slime King."

Zhang Shuihuo twirled the Crown of Fire on his fingers, then suddenly realized Li Cunxu couldn't see, and he was showing a blind man. His enthusiasm waned, and he stopped twirling his fingers.

"But now it seems my duel isn't appropriate. Your eyes are injured. It would be taking advantage of you. I'll wait until your eyes are better and challenge you next time."

Li Cunxu raised his voice, "What did you say just now?"

"Until your eyes are better, I'll challenge you again?"

"No, the sentence before that."

"I brought a gift for the duel?"

"What's the gift?"

"The Crown of Fire from the Fire Slime King. What's up? Why are you asking?"

"I'll accept your duel."

"Better to wait until your eyes are better! I'm not in a hurry."

You may not be in a hurry, but I am.

Li Cunxu blankly said, "You don't really think that because I can't see, you can beat me, right? No way, no way, there's no way someone truly thinks that!"

As a member of the Yin Yang Zhang Family, Zhang Shuihuo has always been the one sneering at others, never being ridiculed like this by anyone.

"Let it happen, if I win, don't blame me for bullying a blind person."

"Alright! Bring it on."

Li Cunxu didn't taunt again; the taunting was just to provoke Zhang Shuihuo into the duel and to win the gift. He and Zhang Shuihuo held no grudge, especially since Zhang Shuihuo was about to present him with a great gift. Taunting has to be done in moderation.

"Mechanical Annihilation Hunter, you be the referee."

The duel venue was chosen to be on the grass across the ranch gate.

"Ice and Fire Sword Rider, come out!"

"Xiaoruan, time to take the stage."

The Ice and Fire Sword Rider made a dashing entrance and performed a stylish entrance move.

A cross-slash with dual swords, intertwining flames and ice and snow.

The special effects were full of impact.

Zhang Shuihuo was very pleased with these moves and eagerly looked at Li Cunxu, hoping to hear exclamations of praise from him.

But...

Uh...

Forgot, the opponent is a blind guy.

Of course, if Li Cunxu saw these moves, he would surely admire them first. Being handsome is for life, especially when the moves are performed by the Ice and Fire Sword Rider, a pet that's both handsome and strong.

Then, Li Cunxu's thoughts wouldn't be as friendly.

They would be to snatch the core, the Ice and Fire Dual Swords, from the Ice and Fire Sword Rider and hang them on the wall as collectibles.

"Where's your Slime?"

Zhang Shuihuo saw the empty grass on the opposite side and asked.

"Sorry, too excited, forgot Xiaoruan isn't in the Beast Taming Space. Mechanical Annihilation Hunter, could you please help call Xiaoruan over?"

The duel hadn't started yet.

Having some chatter tendencies, Zhang Shuihuo casually said, "Don't say I didn't warn you, my Ice and Fire Sword Rider has broken through to the bronze level."

In his freshman year, possessing a bronze-level pet already puts him ahead of seventy percent of high school students. Many senior students' pets haven't broken through to the bronze level.

No wonder he is confident about seeking a duel to avenge his past defeat.

Unfortunately, he picked the wrong opponent.

Li Cunxu asked, "Did you bring healing pills?"

"Your mouth was quite sharp earlier, but now you're worried your Slime might get hurt? It's too late."

Despite his words, Zhang Shuihuo still tossed a bottle of healing pills to Li Cunxu.

Hearing the sound of something flying, Li Cunxu accurately caught it with one hand, the motion resembling holding an imaginary scythe.

After a while, the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter brought Xiaoruan over.

"The match begins."

"Ice and Fire Sword Rider, use instant kill, Ice and Fire Destruction Sword."

The Ice and Fire Destruction Sword is the exclusive ultimate move of the Ice and Fire Sword Rider, its power is incredibly astonishing, even the Cyan Lotus Sword Blade can't hold its ground in a clash. However, this skill has a significant drawback: after using this move, the Ice and Fire Sword Rider will enter a five-second state of bodily rigidity. As the proficiency of the Ice and Fire Destruction Sword increases, its power becomes greater and the rigidity time lengthens.

The sturdiness of one's body can reduce the rigidity time.

Furious ice and raging flames intertwined like two dragons entwining each other.

The blink of an eye brought the Ice and Fire Destruction Sword.

Li Cunxu softly said, "Water ball."

Water vapor quickly condensed in the air, forming a pale blue transparent water ball, an ordinary water ball was shot out.

The water ball collided with the Ice and Fire Destruction Sword.

The Yin Yang eye's dynamic vision captured this moment, a hint of smile appeared on Zhang Shuihuo's face.

The result is decided.

In the next instant, a massive bang echoed.

A quick-thinking Zhang Shuihuo immediately noticed something was wrong.

When the water ball collides with the Ice and Fire Destruction Sword, it could be vaporized upon touching the fire sword, or frozen into an ice ball upon touching the ice sword and then smashed to pieces, or it might meet the two swords, turn into an ice ball, then be vaporized by the fire sword into a water ball.

How could a loud bang occur?

Suddenly, a sharp wind howled in Zhang Shuihuo's ear, the sweeping grass slightly stung his face.

Zhang Shuihuo turned around in disbelief, fifty meters away lay a red and blue pet beast, precisely his charming and handsome Ice and Fire Sword Rider.

"I don't need the healing pills, you should use them!"
