Ryan woke up a lot earlier than the pups since he didn't do anything yesterday he was well-rested with little sleep. The first thing he did was check his skill store to see if there was anything good that he could use.

Ryan looked at the skills one by one, the first one Art Manipulation sounded cool but it wasn't something he would use at the moment. Agricultural Intuition sounded helpful but he couldn't know exactly what it was. Right now what he needed was a skill that he could use and need with his current CP.
He kept moving through the list but froze when he saw the next skill "What the hell, Self Detonation, what's up with this suicidal skill I thought that you wanted me alive". He got a shiver along his back and he just moved on to the next.
Night vision wasn't really needed since he could see clearly in the dark. The one skill that looked useful was the powerful legs skill it's something that he could use in his current body.
Looked at it again and nodded "Legs are about one of the main parts of my body that I should strengthen so why not."

Powerful Legs:
Grants the user the power to be able to increase the strength and speed to his legs and lower body up to 40% of their normal strength. The host can decide when to turn the skill on and off. When skill is ranked up an additional 20% of strength and speed will be added.
He looked at the description and nodded "Yes this is nice, if I can turn it off then it means that I can keep on increasing my leg's power naturally."
Ryan began dodging the pups that were sleeping all over the place, he wanted to try out his new skill but then he thought about it more carefully "I don't know how powerful 40% of my leg strength is, If I get caught then the rest of the pups will just get depressed when they compare it to their own. I should check it out later by myself and learn to control it so that I can use it without standing out too much. I can explain being smart but being too strong is a little more difficult to cover."
After a few minutes of careful dodging, he was able to get to the entrance. He made sure to look back and check if any of the other pups were following him but he found no one. "Looks like they had too much fun yesterday hehe."
His goal today was to start getting the training environments ready.
"At the moment I can't really help them with climbing rocks like the Mountain Clan but I might be able to make them just as strong by doing some other weight activities. As for the Storm Clan, I can plant some branches or make WaveWhip make some thick plants that are dense so that the cubs can improve their maneuverability, then we can practice our stealth skills. For the Swamp Clan, that's easy all I have to do is make a slightly deeper pool and have them swim over and over again. Blood Clan is also simple; we just have to practice our fighting. For Tree Clan I could make some sort of bridge using a long and wide branch, under would be some water that the pups can land in incase they fall from the branch."
For now, the one he needed to find was Fire Claw who at the moment was hanging out with River Paw. He was going to wait until they were done talking but they spotted him before and began walking towards him "How's it going Viper Pup are you feeling better than yesterday?"
Ryan smiled "I was feeling alright yesterday it's just that I was thinking about our training."
Both the mentor and the apprentice looked at him with curiosity "Oh yeah, and what is it that you have in mind?"
Ryan began to think of the most important one "Well after talking to my father about the other clans and what they specialized in. The first thing that is obvious is to let us learn some of the fighting skills that you are teaching. I was also thinking about making the pool that we have deeper, by now the pups know how to swim so there shouldn't be any problems as long as someone is always watching us. I wanted to dig a long and wide hole and then fill part of it with water, then we would place a branch as a path to get the cubs in a simulation of being on top of a tree. Lastly, I want to make a course with branches that are planted in the ground densely to symbolize a thick forest of trees.
Fire Claw nodded "These things are easy to do, I can do most of it with some help from Ashfur and Wave Whip. The only one that I'm not too sure about is showing them how to fight at such an early age. Training them I'm okay with because they were playing at the same time that they were getting stronger but fighting is something else entirely."
Ryan shook his head "I know what you're worried about Fire Claw. You think that our time as pups are for forming bonds that will make us desire to protect our clan and work together. I respect your way of thinking I really do, but answer me this, what good will it do to want to protect each other if we don't have the strength to do it."
The warrior just looked at him shocked and then gave him a grin "Viper Pup you really have a good brain don't you. I can't help but hope that I can live long enough to see what you become once you're older. Fine, I'll start fighting lessons for the pups after all your other ideas are built for now just relax."
Ryan thanked him and began to make his way back to the den. When he was near the entrance he found some small stones he used his paw to flick one away with all of his strength and was able to flick it about 4 ft away. Then he thought about using his skill super hard and heard the words [Power Legs Activated].
He flung the rock again and was able to make it go close to 6 ft away. He laughed wildly "This skill might not have much of an effect now but after I grow up it's going to be to OP. If what the Alpha said was right about our clan being the fastest then I can't even imagine how bad the other clans will lose if they dare to annoy us.
Ryan turned off the skill and decided to run as fast as he could around and around until the rest of the pups woke up.
