“Ssss—”

After waking up, the green caterpillar wriggled its body, its eyes curved.

It probably had a satisfying dream, as it seemed to be in a good mood.

Green caterpillars were also known as green bugs, but there were huge differences in its appearance compared to an ordinary green bug.

Its skin was tender and elastic. When Wang Che stroked it, he felt like he was touching a sponge… That was the sensation.

“Are you hungry?” Wang Che asked, opening his palm.

The little insect, which was less than ten centimeters long, was quite plump.

It wiggled toward his palm, and he could not feel any weight from it at all.

A regular year of soul power cultivation would allow this soul pet to grow a centimeter.

When it reached around 20 centimeters, it would evolve into a Green Nether Butterfly.

If it did not evolve, it would theoretically just grow in size forever.

Wang Che walked to the kitchen and found that his mother had thoughtfully prepared the bug’s food.

White birch milk leaf.

The white birch milk tree was a grass type soul pet that was artificially cultivated.

By watering it with all sorts of mixed dairy substances, it could grow edible leaves that had a great effect on bug type soul pets.

However, it was expensive, at about ten dollars per leaf.

Maybe it didn’t sound that pricey on its own, but normally, bug type soul pets the size of green caterpillars would eat three to four pieces at once.

Basically, it had to eat at least ten a day, which would cost 100 dollars.

Subsequently, it would rack up to 3,000 dollars a month, and 30,000 to 40,000 dollars a year.

‘That’s enough to raise a child on Earth,’ Wang Che guessed.

With both his parents’ salary added together, it would amount to just over 10,000 dollars.

It was definitely impossible for his pet to have these leaves every meal.

In fact, Father Wang had once wanted to use his savings to buy a rare soul pet egg, but Wang Che felt that a free one was enough. A rare version would be costly to provide for as well.

Average soul pets, given the requirement that they were carefully nurtured, were good enough as long as the student could awaken their martial soul by the third year.
