Chapter 257 Redeem Rewards

At Bai Qi's enthusiastic invitation, the members of the Special Forces Team One finally agreed to dine with Bai Qi and the others, and the place was naturally Songyuelou.

"Miss Tang Miao, this is a signature dish of Songyuelou Restaurant. Would you like to try it?"

"Miss Tang Miao, let me pour you some tea..."

"Miss Tang Miao..."

On the way, Bai Yuxiao couldn't resist her curiosity and asked Wang Huai about Tang Miao's love life. After learning that Tang Miao was single, she immediately turned into a loyal simp, following closely by Tang Miao's side and showing concern for her well-being.

"Acha, is this how this guy usually is?"

Bai Qi silently moved closer to Bai Qiucha and asked in a low voice.

"I'm not really sure. Yu Xiao likes to run around everywhere, and we actually only see each other a few times a year."

Bai Qiucha smiled bitterly and said, "However, it shouldn't be like that, right?"

"I see."

Bai Qi understood immediately upon hearing this. He glanced at Li Mu, who seemed to have been provoked and had also begun to launch his own offensive, and sighed helplessly.

A simp, a simp, in the end, he gets nothing.

Unfortunately, these are principles that the people involved absolutely cannot understand.

However, some lessons come exceptionally quickly.

Looking at Bai Yuxiao's fawning expression, Tang Miao smiled and said, "Little brother, I don't like girls younger than me, so you can give up now."

Upon hearing Tang Miao's words, Bai Yuxiao felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her entire body turning ashen. Bai Qi even faintly heard the sound of something shattering.

Good grief, it ended before it even started. Looking at it this way, Li Mu was actually quite lucky.

Looking at Bai Yuxiao's utterly dejected expression, Wang Huai sighed helplessly and said, "Tang Miao, watch your tone."

"Oh~"

Tang Miao playfully stuck out her tongue, her adorable appearance invigorating Bai Yuxiao once again. She then swept her dangerous gaze over Wang Huai and Li Xusheng.

Tang Miao doesn't like younger people, so her target must be among these people.

Wang Huai is a shrewd and experienced man, and he's also the team leader, but he looks so reserved, so it's unlikely.

Although the Baili brothers are decent-looking, their behavior is too strange, so it's impossible for them to be.

Li Xusheng is mature, powerful, and handsome; he's most likely the one!

In a short time, with the help of love, Bai Yuxiao overcame her fear of Li Xusheng and secretly set a goal.

Surpass Li Xusheng!

Bai Yuxiao's appearance naturally caught the attention of the others, who exchanged bewildered glances. Finally, Xiao Yuan broke the ice, asking, "Bai Qi, where do you plan to go after the competition results are in?"

Bai Qi tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said, "I should probably go back to Gusu City. I haven't finished my courses at the Mecha Weapons Academy yet, so I should go back to school first."

Although the training camp taught a lot, it lacked knowledge of mecha weaponry. While Shuke had a complete encyclopedia of all machines below the seventh tier, some details still needed to be learned in person.

"Bai Qi, are you going back to school?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Huai looked at Bai Qi speechlessly and said, "I imagine your teachers must be under a lot of pressure."

Everyone agreed with Wang Huai's words.

A student who has already obtained three core patents would be a lot of pressure for anyone to teach.

Bai Qi looked at Xiao Yuan and the others and asked, "What about you? Will you stay at the Six Towers or go out to train?"

Xiao Yuan said, "I will stay in the Sixth Tower for the time being. Grandpa plans to let me focus on cultivation for a while, as my strength is still a bit weak."

"Grandpa, is that Xiao Chuanqi?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Huai said, "As expected, the requirements for descendants of legendary figures are higher. I used to think I was quite capable, but this time I've learned my lesson."

Xiao Yuan smiled faintly and said, "Captain Wang, you flatter me. I simply cannot break through Captain Wang's defenses."

The two exchanged a few compliments and started chatting, leaving Bai Qi to look at the remaining people.

"I'm going to go on a field training trip with my teacher. He said my combat awareness is still lacking and I need to work on it."

Zhou Yan waved his hand, looked at Lu Qing, and said, "Qing'er, are you still staying in the Tower of Knowledge?"

Lu Qing nodded and said, "I still have a lot to learn, so I probably won't be able to leave the Tower of Knowledge for a long time."

"I will also stay in the Six Towers."

Upon hearing this, Li Mu also revealed his plans, but it was unclear to whom he was speaking.

"What about Acha?"

"Me? I'm also going back to Gusu City. I just enrolled and haven't attended a single necromancy course yet. I need to catch up quickly."

Bai Qi grinned and said, "That's perfect, then we can be considered alumni now."

"Um."

Bai Qiucha nodded and said, "When we get back, I'm going to have a good fight with your Death Sword Lord."

"Death Sword Lord? Bai Qi, isn't your pet beast the Withering Dragon Lord?"

Tang Miao was taken aback upon hearing this and asked.

"The Withered Dragon Lord was a lord-level being, but now he's..."

"King-level".

"So the Death Sword Lord must be the Withering Dragon Lord..."

"It came from an upgrade."

The Baili brothers looked at Tang Miao at the same time. Tang Miao suddenly realized what was going on, and his adorable expression made Bai Yuxiao even more infatuated.

Miss Tang Miao is adorable even when she's pretending to be silly!

"But Bai Qi, the speed at which your pet is improving is a bit too exaggerated. If I remember correctly, Alpha was just a skeleton soldier at the beginning, right?"

Xiao Yuan looked at Bai Qi curiously and asked the question that had puzzled everyone for a long time.

As is well known, before the rune evolution method for necromancy creatures in Bai Qi's research lab, all pets needed to use special recipes to evolve, and most of these recipes were not passed on to outsiders, so most people's evolution was almost entirely a matter of luck.

Even if you have the recipe, it's not easy to gather all the ingredients listed. Besides the main ingredients, collecting all sorts of auxiliary materials is a huge undertaking.

The sheer amount of manpower and resources required for someone like Bai Qi to go to such great lengths to cultivate a lowly servant into a king-level being is terrifying to even contemplate.

"Um, would you believe me if I said I was just lucky?"

Bai Qi scratched his head, and after seeing the disdainful looks on the faces of the others, he gave up struggling.

Indeed, it's one thing for one pet to be like this, but for several to be like this, if it's really just luck, Bai Qi probably won't live long enough.

"Bai Qi, have you discovered some special evolution method that you haven't told us yet? Otherwise, your pet beasts are evolving way too fast! For example, the rune evolution methods of other creatures?"

Zhou Yan looked at Bai Qi with suspicion, as if trying to find a way to promote the evolution of the pet beast from Bai Qi's face.

"The difficulty of rune evolution and flesh-blood fusion is too high; I certainly can't figure it out for the time being."

Bai Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Besides, none of you are short of evolution plans, are you? I just used a little more legendary resources than you."

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this. They had heard about Bai Qi exchanging for a bunch of legendary resources for various reasons, including the fact that Bai Qi had recently been buying epic materials like they were cabbages.

But pet evolution isn't like feeding a pig; you can't just eat a lot and eat well to get fat. If it eats something bad, it'll be ruined.

So, this guy definitely has more secrets.

Seeing the scrutinizing gazes of everyone, Bai Qi felt increasingly helpless.

The Evolutionary Egg was his biggest secret, something he absolutely couldn't reveal, and he estimated that even if he did, not many people would believe him.

Anything that claims to increase racial stats simply by consuming stamina, and that allows you to easily fuse various materials to gain skills—anyone who believes that is questionable.

However, this also served as a reminder to him that if things continued this way, sooner or later someone would suspect him, and it would be best to find a convincing reason.

Or, once the equipment my parents helped me buy arrives, could we study the rune evolution of flesh and blood creatures?

Hmm, or maybe I could ask my parents if they have any research data on the Protozoan beasts to share; that might be helpful.

……

After a satisfying meal, the group left Songyue Tower contentedly, and the two teams that were originally rivals had become quite familiar with each other.

Bai Qi was not surprised by this.

No matter what world you're in, there's nothing a meal can't solve.

If so, then two meals.

"Thank you for your hospitality today. Please remember to look me up if you ever have the chance to visit the capital again."

Wang Huai looked at Xiao Yuan and the others and said, "I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you in the future."

I think it will happen.

Xiao Yuan smiled and said, "The Thirteenth Bureau and the Association have fairly close ties, so we might have an opportunity soon."

The two exchanged a knowing smile, clearly both aware of something. Zhou Yan, however, suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "The theory exam results should be out by now, right? Shouldn't we hurry back and check?"

"It's been out for a while now. Didn't you receive a notification about your badge?"

Lu Qing glanced at Zhou Yan speechlessly. Zhou Yan suddenly realized what was going on and quickly opened the badge. After seeing the word "pass" and the ranking on it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It wasn't easy, I barely passed."

Zhou Yan patted his chest, then suddenly realized that one person was missing from his surroundings.

"Huh? Where's Bai Qi?"

"I think they must be going to collect the reward the president mentioned, right? I came in second, so Bai Qi must be first."

Bai Qiucha smiled and said, "Two legendary resources, I wonder how much Bai Qi can enhance his pet beast this time."

"There might be more than two items. Don't forget, the guild leader gave out quite a few points this time. With Bai Qi's ranking, he has a full 100,000 points. At least one legendary resource is guaranteed."

Lu Qing pushed up her glasses, looked at Zhou Yan, and said, "So if some people still want to surpass Bai Qi, they'd better work harder."

"Three legendary resources... I've always doubted that Bai Qi could cultivate three monarch-level creatures. I've already given up..."

Zhou Yan shrugged indifferently, clearly adopting a nonchalant attitude.

If it were Xiao Yuan and a few others, it would be fine. She was even confident that she could catch up with Bai Qiucha. But Bai Qi was a freak who could reach the fourth rank in just a few months and whose pet beasts had both levels. She should just forget about it.

"I wonder what legendary resource Bai Qi will exchange for?"
