Kingshot Pet Food
Pet Food raises pet levels, which drives the primary squad attack and defence buffs your pets contribute.
Use it now
Pets bring a primary squad attack and defence buff to your march, and the size of that buff is set by the pet's level. Pet Food is what raises the level. On top of the level-by-level growth, every ten levels open an advancement step, which is the bigger jump.
That structure is why food is a use-now item. Holding it delays a buff that applies to every fight, and the next multiple of ten is always the meaningful target because it unlocks the advancement gate. The advancement itself needs different materials, Nutrient Potions and Growth Manuals, and those are worth holding for a scoring window.
Food comes from the Beast Cage, daily missions, alliance chests and event rewards, and it goes into the pet that rides with your main march.
Save it or spend it?
Use it. Pet levels feed advancement steps every ten levels, and holding food just delays the buff.

When to spend it, by server age
Early game
Feed your first useful pet to the first advancement gate. Early pets are placeholders, so keep the levelling shallow until you know which pet your march will keep.
Mid game
Your main march's pet takes all the food, pushed from one multiple of ten to the next. The other pets stay at whatever level they unlocked at.
Late game
Late game food demand per level is high and the target pet is fixed. Keep pushing it toward the next advancement gate and check the pet's page for how much food the full climb costs.
Tips and mistakes
Worth knowing
- Advancement lands every ten levels, so pushing to the next multiple of ten is the meaningful goal.
Mistakes people make
- Feeding a pet you never field alongside your main march.
