Yao Si rummaged through her optical space. When she finally found a red berry, she placed it into the celestial swan’s mouth.

The celestial swan flapped its wings, then raised its head towards the berries for a big bite before turning to glance at her with its beaks still wide open. A familiar voice came through. “I’m sorry, we do not support food as a form of payment, please pay with the Galactic Currency!”

“…” F**k, it was just trying to get me to pay… .

Paying for transport, that’s… quite normal. But… if you don’t support other forms of payment, then return me my berries! (._.”)

“Do you accept bank transfers?”

The swan did not say anything more, just raised its slender claw. Attached to it was a red payment device. Yao Si frowned, then swiped her optical computer past it once. With a short buzz, the words ‘successful payment’ came through.

The celestial swan flew up in satisfaction, circling her head once with an enthusiastic chirp. “It’s everyone’s duty to care for the celestial race’s transports. Please do not overfeed the celestial swans, thank you!”

“…” Come back here!

–

Yao Si reached the celestials’ training office.

Tourism within the celestials’ lands seemed much more advanced than their training facilities, and there weren’t many people at the training registration booth. Despite the large size of the office, there were only five people – mostly burly warriors. The number of staff was even lower, with a total of two booths; one of which had a ‘close’ sign hanging at its front.

Just as Yao Si was about to queue, an elderly with snowy white beard came over.

“Dear customer, are you here for training?”

“I am.” Yao Si nodded.

“Have you done your preparations before the training?” he asked.

“Preparation?” She stilled. What did she need to prepare?

“This must be the first time you’re here to the celestial region!” the elderly man added enthusiastically as he started his introduction. “Training means that you’ll be transported to the most primitive planet. The locals there will be clueless about the Galactic rules, so you can’t go there without any preparations!”

“What do I need to prepare?” Yao Si couldn’t help asking since there was still time before her registration.

“Come come, look over there.” He pointed towards an overflowing shop straight ahead. “These are the most famous supplementary pills in the celestial region. We also stock talismans and everything else you need to ensure your safety during your training. These are pills to boost your immunity system, these are talismans for fire hazards, these are summoning talismans, and these are the best Bi Gu celestial pills! With all these, you won’t have to worry about the dangers you’ll face. There’s also a luxury set available!”

“…” He must be a promoter, his words can’t be trusted. “I don’t need it, thanks!” She was going there to train, not for a tour. Besides, she wanted to train her mental strength, which had nothing to do with all these.

“Why won’t you need it!” Customers must have been a rare sight judging by his persistence. He added in agitation, “Don’t worry, my merchandise is all of the highest quality. Even if you’re here to train, you can never be too careful. You should get some to protect yourself in case of unforeseen circumstances!”

“I really don’t need anything.”

She was here purely to train her mental strength. She had already checked the Galactic web, and her first destination would be the third region of Shadow Planet. According to the web, the species in that area would all be below rank B, so as a 3S rank bloodling, as long as she remained in that area, she would be safe.
