After telling Rex to try to hit him with its paws, Adam signalled for Rex to chase after him in case the dog beast didn't completely understand and burst himself towards the wall.

Rex was excited and its bright green eyes flashed as it blitzed after Adam and with unimaginable speed, nearly managed to catch Adam who hadn't used his full speed off that bat.

"This dog beast is not bad. Its speed is impressive and I haven't seen its stats yet" mumbled Adam to himself as he used to Status Peering Feature while struggling to keep away from Rex.

Not only was it fast, but it was also very nimble, agile and flexible, making it so that it was even better than Adam at quickly changing direction, but Adam made up for that with explosive power, raw speed and tactics.

He had already tried using the Status Peering Feature on the giant man to get his exact stats, but it didn't work and Adam didn't rely on the Status Peering Feature to gauge the power of his opponents.

Adam had grown to be able to sense his opponent's cultivation level, and even if it was hidden, he trusted in his instincts that were almost always right and would always have an idea of the power of those around him.

Rex - Adam's Dog Beast Pet

Physical Cultivation: LVL 192

Strength: 201

Speed: 320

Intelligence: 250

Resistance: 210

Rex's stats were impressive and with its high intelligence stat, Adam was sure that it would have very sharp senses, and as a Dog Beast, was likely to have an unbelievable strong sense of smell.

It would be very useful when searching for someone, while what was most impressive was its speed that was higher than that of many Master Level Cultivators.

Matched with its agility, flexibility and sharp teeth, it was an incredibly dangerous beast.

Along with that, it also seemed to be quite observant and perceptive as it began recognising patterns in Adam's movements and copying them.

However, Adam was still a few steps ahead of it and they continued bursting around the room and it got close to touching Adam a few times, but he would always manage to dodge at the final moment.

It was quite a large room, but with their great speed and physical power, they were bouncing around it like it was nothing.

If one were to watch them, they would merely see blurs that were launching themselves from the walls, ceiling and the ground, while Adam continued to dodge all of Rex's attempts to touch him.

After an hour of Rex trying to catch Adam, although it might have seemed to an onlooker as though they were merely simply bouncing around the room, they were both making many calculations and reading the other's movements.

Rex still never managed to touch Adam, but managing to get close was impressive enough considering the gap in speed, experience and overall power.

Forgetting that Adam had instructed them to knock, one of the soldiers open the door and in tow had a large barrel along with a large cart filled with cans of dog food.

Rex couldn't control its speed after bursting off the wall and was about to knock into the soldier with enough force to launch him slamming into the wall and severely damaging him.

Adam didn't care much about the soldier, but he hadn't done anything wrong while he also wasn't trying o spark any conflict, so quickly used the Air Palm Strike Skill to hit Rex.

He didn't use his full power and only enough to push Rex to the side and allow him to narrowly avoid hitting the soldier.

Rex crashed face-first into the wall and was dazed from the impact as it collapsed onto the ground.

The dog beast was already fatigued from playing Extreme Tag with Adma in the room for an entire hour, and colliding with the wall was what pushed him over the edge.

Adam thanked the soldier, then told him to quickly leave and began opening the dog food cans and pouring them into the barrel.

As soon as he opened the first can, Rex sprung up and hadn't smelled anything like that before, but it drew it towards it.

Adam laughed and instructed it to wait a moment, then once he poured all the dog food into the barrel, he could eat as much as he pleased.

Recognising that it was likely to have only lived off dead bodies and random chemicals and unusual substances that were in the abandoned lab, Adam assumed that ordinary dog food would smell and taste heavenly to the dog.

It seemed as though he was right, and as soon as he finished and stepped back, the tired and still dizzy dog beast pounced towards the barrel.

Knocking the barrel over intentionally, it began sucking up all the dog food that began pouring all over the ground like a vacuum.

Within a minute, the cart full of dog food that the soldiers had brought in had been finished by Rex and he licked the barrel clean, before collapsing again.

It seemed as though it was only its hunger that got it to wake up again, and checking on his body, Adam was shocked by what he observed and sensed.

Rex seemed to be able to cultivate in its sleep, and similar to how the Ethereal Skill worked, he would enter a mentally dormant state, then his body would automatically begin absorbing and circulating energy.

"What a coincidence. We both cultivate in our sleep" said Adam to himself, who had previously been planning on only keeping Rex around him temporarily, but was beginning to think as though he might have found a useful, worthy and fun companion.

As Rex rested and cultivated in its sleep, Adam activated the Ethereal Recovery Skill to prepare himself physically and mentally for when he was going to spar with the giant man.

He couldn't help but feel excited and by defeating him in a duel, not only would his reputation and ranking on the Top Cultivator Ranking increase, but he would also be granted freedom within the country, which would be very useful.
