Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 22 Training by the Lake of Taize

the next day.

At the shore of Taize Lake, a husky walked ahead with a sorrowful expression, carrying a large bag on its back, looking dejected. Behind it, Bai Qi looked relaxed and carefree.

Although the training and assessment only lasts for three days, there is still a lot to prepare.

Food, makeshift beds, emergency medical supplies...

Bai Qi naturally wouldn't carry such a large bag himself; he would definitely need to find someone to do the hard work.

Huskies, with their high energy levels and physical condition comparable to adults, are naturally the best choice.

Awooooo!

(I may not be human, but you really are a dog.)

If it weren't for the electrical device inside the mechanical prosthetic limb, the husky would definitely have risen up in rebellion and overthrown Bai Qi's violent rule.

But now...

The wolf, under the eaves, had no choice but to bow its head.

"Bai Qi!"

Bai Qi was about to register at the entrance when he heard a familiar voice coming from behind him. He turned around and saw Gao Cheng waving at him.

"I knew you would come."

Gao Cheng strode up to Bai Qi, glanced at the husky beside Bai Qi with some curiosity, and asked, "What is this polar ice wolf?"

Bai Qi said, "Oh, a friend left it with me, so I brought it along. Maybe it'll come in handy."

Although a first-tier Beastmaster can only contract one pet, some docile pets can be kept by their side even without being contracted.

However, most of those were kept as pets; this was the first time I'd ever seen someone like Bai Qi bring one to participate in a training assessment.

Gao Cheng smiled and said, "Ahem... The polar ice wolves have good perception; they might actually be helpful during training."

Bai Qi nodded and asked, "By the way, Brother Gao, do you know how this training will be assessed?"

Although Bai Qi knew about the existence of the trials and assessments, he wasn't entirely clear on the specifics because he wasn't a Beast Tamer.

Gao Cheng paused for a moment and said, "According to the usual practice, we should be hunting ferocious beasts or finding materials to earn points, and then rankings should be based on the points. This year should be the same."

Is this meant to test the beast tamer's combat skills and wilderness survival abilities?

Bai Qi quickly understood the purpose of the training and assessment. A group of beast tamers riding polar ice wolves and wearing camouflage uniforms appeared from the shore of Taize Lake and quickly formed a long line.

These are all soldiers of the Beast Taming Legion. From the contracted pets to the resources for their training, everything is provided by the government, without the Beast Tamer having to pay any fees.

The reason why Zhuge Chen's family was able to obtain so many undead creatures was because Elf House was the government-designated supplier of pets for the military.

"Quiet!"

After the Beast Taming Legion arrived, a dark-skinned instructor stepped out from the ranks, glanced at the Beast Tamers present, and announced loudly, "We will begin this training assessment in half an hour. Before that, please listen carefully to the rules."

"There are a large number of ferocious beasts and abundant resources in the Taize Lake area. What you need to do is hunt as many ferocious beasts as possible and find as many resources as possible. Different resources can be exchanged for points. As long as you reach the finish line with resources worth 1000 points, you will pass the test."

"However, we will not set up any safety points on the site this year. All we will provide you is a distress call device. Once you activate the distress call device, we will assume that you have failed the assessment and someone will take you out within five minutes."

"For the five minutes after activating the emergency call device, your personal safety depends entirely on yourself. So come back to me to sign the safety commitment letter and collect the points encyclopedia after you have thought it through."

The instructor's voice was very loud, and everyone present could hear it clearly. However, after a brief silence, the audience erupted in uproar.

"If there's no safe place, what if we encounter danger?"

"I don't believe it. They must be trying to scare us into giving up and not going to the Secret Realm Tower."

"But what if it really doesn't exist..."

"Then... then let's not go."

Looking at the group of rookies below who were discussing amongst themselves, a hint of disappointment flashed in the instructor's eyes, but he managed to hide it.

Although it's unclear why the government made him do this, the results were surprisingly good.

After twenty years of peace, these pampered young beast tamers no longer even had the courage to go on adventures.

Unfortunately, the person who discovered this secret tower was the legendary Minghuang, and for the time being, only apprentice beast tamers can enter. Otherwise, how could these newbies have gotten a chance to enter?

Bai Qi was also somewhat surprised by the instructor's words. Although this training ground had definitely been cleared and there wouldn't be any high-level ferocious beasts, ferocious beasts were still ferocious beasts after all, and they wouldn't just target your pet like they would in a regular battle.

With the fragile physique of an apprentice beast tamer, being touched even once would basically cripple them, let alone last for five minutes.

Bai Qi glanced at the instructors who were scrutinizing the group of people below, and then directly signed the safety commitment letter.

Alpha is now at Tier 0, Level 8. With its super-fast speed and steel skeleton, it should be able to protect itself without any problems.

Moreover, Bai Qi always felt that this instructor was trying to scare them.

In this peaceful era, even the military wouldn't gamble with the safety of civilians. Bai Qi believes many people can understand this, but whether they dare to take the risk is another matter.

After all, in addition to the threat of ferocious beasts, the surrounding beast tamers are also adversaries.

The instructor only said that bringing enough resources to the finish line would be considered passing, but he didn't explain where those resources came from.

The registration process was still ongoing, while Bai Qi was engrossed in flipping through the points chart in his hands.

This encyclopedia is very well made. In addition to high-definition pictures, it also includes descriptions of the ferocious beasts' habits and skills, and even marks their locations.

Especially for some of the high-scoring ferocious beasts, the descriptions are incredibly detailed, as if they're afraid you won't challenge them.

【Name】；Ice Demon

[Race]: Ice, Undead

[Growth Level]: Tier 0, Level 10

[Bloodline Level]: High Elite

[Racial Skills]: Frozen Fang, Blizzard

[Description]: Inhabits the ice layer of Taize Lake, and has a violent temper.

Points: 1000

Passing the assessment requires 1000 points, and this is exactly 1000 points. Bai Qi simply doesn't believe that these people didn't do it on purpose.

However, with so many ferocious beasts here that are not usually seen, they should be able to provide a lot of progress for the Evolution Egg, right?

A smile involuntarily crept onto Bai Qi's lips. In his eyes, all the ferocious beasts in the encyclopedia had become the progress of the evolutionary eggs. If the entrance hadn't been blocked, Bai Qi would have wanted to just charge in.

Whether the Evolution Egg can upgrade again depends entirely on this trial!
