Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 256 Licking Dog No. 2

The Tower of Decisions.

Bai Qi looked at Zhao Futu, who was staring at him with a smile, and felt helpless.

He was chatting with a few people in the assembly hall when he was suddenly transported to the Tower of Decisions.

Without a doubt, among all the Six Towers, only Zhao Futu could have done this.

"President, next time if there's anything you need to do, please let me know in advance. Doing this is terrifying."

Bai Qi couldn't help but complain to Zhao Futu, who simply smiled and said, "What's wrong? Don't you want the first-place prize anymore?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Bai Qi immediately put on a fawning smile, nodded repeatedly, and then asked with some doubt:

"A first-place prize? Isn't there a theory exam too?"

"The most important thing for beast tamers is practical combat. The first round of assessments can already give you a general idea. The theoretical assessments just provide some people with another path for development."

"After all, not everyone is willing to go on outdoor activities."

Bai Qi nodded upon hearing this. Although most beast tamers dream of exploring the unknown wilderness and seeing more beasts they don't usually see, some beast tamers only use it as an auxiliary tool to increase their competitiveness in various industries.

For example, Lu Qing, and Yi Xiaowei...

Barring unforeseen circumstances, they will likely never venture into the wild much in their lives, and even if they do, it will be for activities organized by the association.

"So, the top three rankings are already out?"

Bai Qi looked at Zhao Futu curiously, and Zhao Futu nodded and handed a list to Bai Qi.

The list contained none other than the list of the top ten in this competition.

And the first place belongs to Bai Qi.

Two legendary resources, acquired!

Bai Qi clenched his fist forcefully, already somewhat impatient, but still patiently watched on.

"Second place: Bai Qiucha; Third place: Li Xusheng; Fourth place: Dean Berg; Fifth place: Iris Berg; Sixth place: Xiao Yuan..."

The top three rankings were almost exactly as Bai Qi had predicted, but the subsequent rankings were somewhat unexpected.

"The association's performance is a bit...tsk..."

Bai Qi's expression gradually became serious. In fact, based on his understanding of both sides, apart from Bai Qiucha and Li Xusheng, the strength of the others on both sides was basically the same. It was just that the three members of the Borg family who suddenly appeared were obviously a little overpowered.

Bai Qi was certain that if Lilith hadn't been sent away by him beforehand, she would definitely have been on the top ten list.

The advantages of mythical species are indeed significant.

"That's normal. Families like the Borg family, which have a history spanning countless years, naturally have some advantages. Besides, Xiao Yuan and his group's pet beasts might not be inferior to those of mythical species."

Seeing this, Zhao Futu was not in a hurry at all, and said, "However, you'd better be more careful in the future. If the two powers you showed before were displayed a thousand or two years ago, they would probably have been burned several times by the Borg family."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi shrank back sheepishly. He was unfamiliar with this world, but in his previous life, whether it was the power of death or demonic energy, it would indeed have been directly labeled a heretic and thrown into the wildfire.

"By the way, President, do you know about the Demon type?"

Upon seeing Zhao Futu bring this up, Bai Qi took the opportunity to ask a question.

"Of course I've heard of it. I even personally discovered a demon-themed secret realm. Although I didn't see any living demon-themed creatures, I could still discern some clues."

Zhao Futu nodded and said seriously, "However, although the Demonic system is powerful, you'd better not get too obsessed with it. As far as I know, the reason why the Dharma Emperor died so young was related to this Demonic system."

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly. He was well aware of the danger of the evil flames burning life force; even Gamma had almost succumbed to them last time.

But now that Gamma has acquired some demonic abilities, he shouldn't be in such a predicament if they encounter each other again.

Perhaps sensing Bai Qi's thoughts, Zhao Futu revealed a strange smile and said, "After this competition ends, you will be temporarily leaving headquarters to study in different departments, so you'd better arrange some things here as soon as possible."

Bai Qi understood immediately. Apart from the materials that hadn't been exchanged yet, the only thing he needed to deal with was the Cowardly Dragon.

However, this guy has been having a great time at Grandma Fan's place lately, so I guess he doesn't need to worry about him anymore.

"Alright, you've been fighting all day, you must be tired. Get some rest. After the theory exam tomorrow, you can go and exchange for the resources you want."

Zhao Futu smiled and said, "Cherish your life now. Back then, it wasn't so easy for us to get a legendary resource. The Federation will have to rely on you to protect it in the future."

"I see."

Bai Qi's expression turned serious. The peaceful life the Federation had enjoyed for the past twenty years was thanks to the efforts of Zhao Futu and other older generation beast tamers. Although it was a bit pretentious to say that, he would naturally be duty-bound to help if the ferocious beast tribes attacked the Federation again.

After all, there's no reason to turn back ferocious beast resources that have been delivered to your door.

By the time Bai Qi left the Tower of Decisions, it was almost completely dark outside, and Bai Qi's stomach began to rumble in protest.

"Fill your stomach first, then get a good night's sleep."

……

the next day.

The theoretical exam was held as scheduled, but the content tested was quite varied. In addition to the pet training, ferocious beast dissection, and runes they usually studied, there were also questions on tactics, management, and even interpersonal relationships.

In short, this theory exam was a hodgepodge.

"I'm doomed! None of the questions I practiced yesterday were on the test. I'm doomed!"

Zhou Yan walked out of the examination room with a long face. After seeing Xiao Yuan and the others, he complained, "Who the hell set the questions this time? What kind of nonsense are these?"

"Yes, as far as I know, it was set by the six tower masters and the examiners together, including Instructor Leng."

Xiao Yuan smiled, and Zhou Yan's expression immediately changed. He said, "I was wondering why this exam was so comprehensive. It turns out the teacher was involved too."

Seeing Zhou Yan's appearance, Xiao Yuan and the others couldn't help but laugh.

The theoretical exam was indeed quite difficult, and the design field was also quite complex, but they also saw through the association and the Thirteenth Bureau's purpose.

Simply put, this theoretical exam is a survey on future development goals. The association and the Thirteenth Bureau will decide your fate based on your performance in this theoretical exam, so their purpose is very clear when answering the questions.

"By the way, Bai Qi, how did your exam go?"

Xiao Yuan looked at Bai Qi, the last person to leave the examination hall, and asked.

"It was alright. This assessment was pretty basic. I should be able to get full marks on the objective questions, but I'm not so sure about the subjective questions."

Bai Qi shrugged, looking resigned to his fate, while Zhou Yan looked even more mournful after hearing Bai Qi's words.

"I can't beat you in a fight, and I can't pass the exams, so how did I end up in the same cohort as a freak like you...?"

Everyone agreed. Before meeting Bai Qi, they could accept being called monsters by others, but after meeting Bai Qi, they became very averse to the title.

This isn't some kind of monster, it's clearly a beast!

"The final results should be out around noon. Since we don't have much to do, how about we all go grab a bite to eat?"

Xiao Yuan looked around and said, "We've been training together for so long, but it seems like we haven't had a proper get-together yet. Let me treat you today."

"I'm fine with having dinner, but you don't need to come if I'm treating."

Zhou Yan walked over to Bai Qi, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "As a player driven by three cores, it's not very respectful of you to just ignore him like this."

"You agree, right, Bai Qi?"

Seeing Zhou Yan's obvious intention to rip off the rich man, Bai Qi rolled his eyes and said, "It's just a treat, it's only right. After all, you contributed a lot of points, so I understand the principle of reciprocity."

Bai Qi's words immediately struck a nerve with Zhou Yan, who immediately fell silent and stopped talking.

"Um, Bai Qi, are you treating us to dinner? Can I come along?"

Just then, a slightly playful voice came from the side. Bai Qi looked over and saw that it was Tang Miao who was speaking. Behind Tang Miao were Wang Huai and others from the special operations team.

"Tang Miao, don't talk nonsense."

Wang Huai glared at Tang Miao, then said apologetically to Bai Qi, "Bai Qi, you don't need to worry about her. Just do your own thing."

Bai Qi smiled and said, "Are you planning to go back?"

Wang Huai shook his head and said, "Not yet. It seems the two leaders have something to discuss. They asked us to stay in Songlin City for a visit. We plan to rest for a while and then go for a stroll around the area."

"That's perfect, let's go eat together, it'll be more lively with more people."

"Yay!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Miao cheered with joy, her charming and adorable gaze stunning many association members who had just come out of the examination hall.

In such a large training camp, there were very few female beast tamers, and the few that were there were all very unique. Now, seeing Tang Miao, who was full of youthful energy, these young men who had been locked up at headquarters for several months suddenly felt their hearts flutter.

"Bai Qi, do you know this person?"

Bai Yuxiao blushed slightly, quietly moved closer to Bai Qi, and asked in a low voice.

"You mean Tang Miao? We met during a previous overseas mission, what's up?"

Bai Qi looked at Bai Yuxiao with some doubt, wondering what his intentions were.

"So, did you know she has a boyfriend?"

Bai Qi: "..."

Why are young people these days so obsessed with romance? Don't they know that women only slow down their beast-taming progress?

A complete mess!

"I don't know, but I suggest you ask his teammates."

Bai Qi gestured towards Li Xusheng, who immediately noticed and turned to look at Bai Qi. At the same time, a fierce aura rushed towards them.

"Ahem... Never mind, I'll ask again when I have the chance."

Seeing Li Xusheng's appearance, Bai Yuxiao immediately gave up and abandoned her plan to ask Li Xusheng, but her eyes never left Tang Miao, which made Bai Qi, Xiao Yuan and the others look at each other in bewilderment.

The second simp has been born.
