Mystery Island Training School

At the Mystery Island Training School, you are able to train your Neopet for the Battledome. You can use this Training School until your pet reaches Level 250, at which point you will need to go to the Secret Ninja Training School.

There are five attributes you can train. For more information on what these attributes do for you in the Battledome, check out our explainer at the In-Depth Battlepedia.

• Strength
• Defence
• Agility (a.k.a. movement)
• Endurance (a.k.a. hit points)
• Level

Limitations

All stats are only allowed to be trained to twice your pet's level, except for Hit Points (Endurance), which can go three times higher than your level. However, if your Hit Points is more than twice your level, you will not be able to train any other stat. In order to train other stats once again, you must train your level up until your Hit Points is at most twice your level.

Paying For Courses

Each time you take a course, you will be asked to pay with codestones. The codestones you are asked for are chosen randomly each time; they have no connection with your pet or course selection.

You can get codestones through random events, from other users' shops, as prizes from some dailies, or from fighting in the Battledome.

When you're ready, navigate to the status page, where you can click "pay". Please note that you can submit partial payments, and do not need all required codestones on hand at the same time.

Beginning on July 24, 2024, courses can be cancelled. Once you sign up for a course you cannot sign up for another until you pay (and complete) the course you are already signed up for, or cancel the course you're currently enrolled in. The course signup remains even if a pet is transferred or abandoned.

Length of Courses

The higher level your pet is, the longer and costlier the training session will be. The table below shows the levels.

You can reduce these times by 30-75% by using the Training Fortune Cookie (which lasts for 5 days) or the Deluxe Training Fortune Cookie (which lasts for 10 days).

Completing a Course

At the end of your training, you will need to press the button "Complete Course" in order for the new statistics to take effect. If not, your pet will sit there, waiting for you to press it.

When you complete a course, your pet will usually only get 1 point in the trained area. Occasionally, however, you might get a 2 point boost and, rarely, a mega 3, 4, 5, or even a 6 point boost! The odds of receiving these bonus stat points were once published in a Neopets Magazine and are as follows:

Techo Master Wisdom

You may also visit the Techo Master while at the training school to hear his pearls of wisdom.

The sayings are:

A fool will learn nothing from a wise man, but a wise man will learn much from a fool.

Against overwhelming odds, you will lose!

Can you track a man who can walk over rice paper without leaving a mark?

Funny noises are not funny unless laughed at.

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.

If your injury is real and I fail to assist you, then I have violated myself.

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a very big man to laugh at that big man and an even bigger man to ask why

Man who falls in vat of molten glass makes spectacle of himself.

Man who laugh last not get joke.

Never test depth of water with both feet.

The superior man acts before he speaks, and afterwards speaks according to his action.

To me, kung-fu is like a ballet, except there's no music, no choreography, and the dancers hit each other.

Wax on. Wax off.

Wherever you go, go with all your heart.
