<h4>Chapter 1002: Skill Learning</h4>

    ck Dune pointed to the one-star cat ves who were training their bodies and said, “The first thing a cat ve trains is strength. A qualified cat ve is in charge of taking care of our master cat during battles. To borrow the superpower from our master requires a strong body and an agile mind.


    All the things you do require lots of mental and physical energy so a cat ve has to have a strong body.”


    Zhao Yao looked attentively at the training one-star cat ves and thought, “That is good training.”


    ck Dune said, “After they have trained their body, they go to the back hall to train their skills. It is out of bounds to apprentice cat ves. After they leave, you’ll train together with the apprentice cat ves and learn how to serve the cat master...”


    Zhao Yao asked, “Trainer, who’s that white cat that appeared in the sky just now?”


    ck Dune was glum and said reluctantly, “That’s Lord Ya Xing. He’s Lord Wheatley’s brother. His territory is on the northern side and he was fighting with Lord Wheatley over territories...” He looked at Zhao Yao and said, “These are our master’s affairs. You don’t have to know.”


    “Oh.” Zhao Yao nodded obediently and remembered Ya Xing and his territory.


    Zhao Yao asked, “When can I start learning about the use of the power of awareness?”


    “Every afternoon, qualified cat ves will give sses. There is rted information in the library where you can do self-study.” ck Dune stopped before continuing, “As you’re an apprentice cat ve, you can only learn the lowest orange level skills.”


    Zhao Yao asked curiously, “Orange level skill? Are there categories in the skill level of awareness”?


    ck Dune said, “Of course, the orange level’s the weakest, followed by maroon, white, silver, ck and the highest grey level.”


    Zhao Yao thought, “It’s fur color discrimination. They’re looking down on orange cats...”


    Zhao Yao remembered the awareness skill and said excitedly, “Where’s the library? I’d like to take a look.”


    ck Dune looked suspiciously at Zhao Yao and said, “You haven’t received the power from Lord Wheatley and you don’t have the power of awareness. You won’t be able to learn the awareness skills. Train with the other apprentices. We’ll teach you once the time’s right.”


    Zhao Yao felt ck Dune’s suspicion. Though he would have liked to learn he said casually, “Oh.”


    Zhao Yao was brought to the apprentice’s group to train their bodies and learn how to take care of supercats.


    ck Dune guided them as he said, “You’re potential cat ves but the road to qualification is fraught with obstacles. Everyone thinks of having their own cat but only one in ten thousand has a chance at fulfilling it.”


    “Do you want to have a cat?”


    The apprentices said excitedly, “Yes!”


    “Do you want to cuddle cat fur? Touch their paw pad?”


    That was a symbol for borrowing superpower. The crowd cheered and shouted, “Yes!”


    “Then train hard!”


    Zhao Yao looked at the surrounding cheering apprentices and rolled his eyes in his heart. “Perhaps the cats on this are too few. If they go to Earth, they’ll be overjoyed.”


    Zhao Yao trained together patiently with the apprentices. Besides physical training, there were various cuddling of cats, preparing of cat meals and learning about the characteristics of cats.


    Zhao Yao kept a low profile to avoid exposing his strong constitution. In the evening, he followed the apprentices to clean the training arena and left the Cat ve Hall.


    Just as he was leaving, other cat ves walked towards Zhao Yao. The leader was a silver-haired youth who smiled at Zhao Yao and said, “Greetings, are you Guang Yu? I’m Blue Moon. We intend to revise and train together after the formal training. Are you interested in joining us?”


    “Not interested,” Zhao Yao answered casually and left. He could not wait to sneak into the library to learn the awareness skills.


    The sidekick of Blue Moon said, “The new guy’s arrogant.”


    Blue Moon smiled and said, “Perhaps he’s shy. He has just be an apprentice, it’s normal to be proud. Didn’t we go through it too?


    Let’s concentrate on our training. To be a qualified cat ve, we have a lot to learn.”


    Zhao Yao came to a deste location and activated the Cat Prince Costume’s invisibility. He slipped into the Cat ve Hall and located the library. He avoided the guards and entered thepound.


    “The guards are not strong because their poweres from cats. Hence they are not strict in guarding against people who learn the skills secretly?”


    Zhao Yao was caught off guard by the differentnguage used in the library. The elder in his dream did not know how to read, hence Zhao Yao was unable to understand thenguage used in the library.


    He saw a youth reading a book by the book shelves.


    “Is he a cat ve and borrowing a book from the library?” Zhao Yao’s eyes lit up as he noticed the Level 15 indicator above his head, which was equivalent to a Level 15 supercat.


    “Did he borrow Wheatley’s superpower? Is he a qualified cat ve under Wheatley?”


    Zhao Yao frowned. Catherine was only Level 12. If he used dream induction, there was a high chance of failure.


    “Then...”


    Pom!


    Zhao Yao retrieved his hand knife as the cat ve fell to the ground unconscious. He used Level 24 Diana’s dream intrusion superpower to enter the cat ve’s dream.


    When Zhao Yao returned to the material realm, he had learned the’snguages.


    He was able to identify the titles of the books on the shelves.


    He found the shelves for awareness skills and took out an orange level book “Focus”.


    Zhao Yao studied the entire book meticulously. As he was about to test the contents, the Book showed changes and a message appeared in Zhao Yao’s mind.


    Orange level skill: Focus. It will passively increase power of awareness recovery by 30%. Do you want your supercat to learn?


    Two options appeared which were Level 12 Catherine and Level 24 Diana.


    Zhao Yao’s eyes lit up as he chose Diana.


    Do you want to expend 10000 experience points for Diana to learn Focus?


    “I didn’t expect Book to have such ability. And I have to spend experience points?” Zhao Yao frowned and looked at the panel. Book: Level 8 (71317/100000). He put back the book silently.


    If he had to spend experience points, he was going to be prudent. He intended to find the most powerful skill for his supercat to learn.
