Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 373 Ancient Mountain's Super Evolution!

The Tower of Decisions.

After leaving the Green Dragon Secret Realm, before Bai Qi could even react, he was directly teleported into the Tower of Decisions. The continuous changes in space were almost too much for Bai Qi, a fifth-tier Beast Tamer.

"Hey president, could you at least say hello next time? This is really bad for your health."

Bai Qi shook his head, wondering if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Zhao Futu's ability to teleport people was getting worse and worse; he hadn't felt this dizzy last time.

"What, do you want to stay there and be challenged?"

Chairman Zhao smiled and showed Bai Qi the scene at the exit of the Green Dragon Secret Realm.

"Zhou Yan, Gu Shan? Do these people have to be so persistent...?"

Bai Qi was speechless, wondering where these people got their fixation on challenging him. Why couldn't things just be peaceful?

"You're just like Luo Xiang, aren't you?"

Seeing this, Zhao Futu shook his head helplessly and said, "Indeed, it was the right thing to bring you into the Tower of Decisions."

"Ahem... President, could you please not make it sound like you're locking up some kind of destabilizing element?"

Bai Qi's eyes twitched slightly, while Zhao Futu's expression turned serious as he said, "That's right, you are a destabilizing factor right now."

As he spoke, Zhao Futu stood up and said, "If you were just a beast tamer with exceptional talent, you wouldn't attract much attention. Take Bai Qiucha, for example. Although she is exceptionally talented, with her father, He Guang, a legendary figure, no one would try anything funny."

"As for you, haven't you noticed that the biggest impression the entire Federation has of you isn't the speed at which your Beast Taming level increases, but rather your endless stream of research results?"

Zhao Futu smiled slightly and said, "Although the patent for rune-inspired mechanical weapons was given to Mo Zhu, it is clear to everyone that this is your masterpiece."

"For those conglomerates or people with ill intentions, your creativity is what attracts them the most."

Upon hearing Zhao Futu's words, Bai Qi scratched his head and said, "So, I should reduce my public appearances from now on?"

"That's impossible now. Once the Super God Evolution Research Institute is established, you won't be able to avoid attracting attention. Instead of trying to be discreet, you might as well be a little more unrestrained and divert those guys' attention."

"Distract yourself?"

Bai Qi seemed to understand something, and Zhao Futu didn't keep him in suspense any longer, saying, "The more outstanding your research is, the more they will overlook your combat strength. Perhaps by the time these guys can't hold back anymore, your strength will be enough to protect yourself."

"Um, President, I have a feeling that if I follow your method, I might not be able to hold out until then."

Bai Qi glanced at Zhao Futu, who gave a strange smile and said, "Do you think our Beast Tamer Association and the Tower of Decisions are just for show?"

"Our Beastmaster Association's history far surpasses that of the Federation, and the members of the Decision Tower are the future leadership of the Association. Do you think anyone would risk a complete falling out with the Association to attack you?"

Holy crap, that's awesome!

Bai Qi silently gave Zhao Futu a thumbs up. If someone else had said this, Bai Qi might not have believed it, but coming from Zhao Futu, it didn't sound out of place at all.

It's always good to find shade under a big tree.

"That being said, we still have to consider some reckless lunatics, which is one of the reasons why we want to arrange a legendary bodyguard for you."

Zhao Futu gave Bai Qi a deep look and said, "Lord Nicholas has great potential and can guarantee your safety within the Federation, but relying on external forces is not a long-term solution, so you'd better improve your strength as soon as possible."

"no problem."

Bai Qi patted his chest vigorously, making a solemn promise. Then, his eyes darted around, and he suddenly put on a fawning smile, saying, "So, Guild Master, could you give me some legendary resources? Not many, just four, five, six, seven, or eight pieces will do. Consider it a bonus for joining the Tower of Decisions."

"You little rascal, you're really dreaming."

Zhao Futu chuckled upon hearing this, saying, "Don't even think about resources. Apart from being able to exchange them with points during the training camp, you need to complete tasks of corresponding difficulty to qualify for anything else. With your current strength, you shouldn't even consider it."

"After you join the Tower of Decisions, your authority within the association will be enhanced. You will not only be able to access information that ordinary people cannot see, but you will also be able to accept more missions."

"Oh, is that all? Is it really that shabby?"

Bai Qi smacked his lips, suddenly looking somewhat disgusted.

Or, why don't you go to the 13th Bureau for a temporary assignment? Didn't they say it was possible before?

"You little rascal, I really can't keep you here unless I offer you some real benefits."

Zhao Futu sighed, took out a ring and tossed it to Bai Qi, saying, "Legendary resources have clear exchange rules. Although I am the guild leader, I can't change them arbitrarily. I remember you're currently using a small secret realm, so I'll give you a bigger one."

"A Mystic Ring? What are its attributes?"

Bai Qi took the secret realm ring and immediately began to study it.

"You're even picky about attributes? Your pets don't even have a fixed category, so what's the point of attributes for you?"

Zhao Futu was both amused and exasperated. He shook his hand and said, "Get out of here right now. I finally understand why Qin Jiang treated you that way. Staying here for too long will really drive you crazy."

"I knew it, Old Qin was badmouthing me behind my back."

Bai Qi spat angrily. He had been thinking of bringing some local specialties for Chairman Qin, but it seemed he wouldn't need to.

"Then I'll be going now, thank you, Chairman."

After putting away the ring, Bai Qi left the Tower of Decisions under Zhao Futu's disdainful gaze.

Although I didn't manage to swindle a single legendary resource, a Mystic Ring is still pretty good.

I don't know exactly how big it is, I'll have to study it carefully when I get back.

"Where should we go next? Maybe we should just exchange the resources and then stay in the Green Dragon Secret Realm?"

Bai Qi tilted his head, suddenly remembered something, and after searching through the secret realm, he finally found his training badge.

"I wonder how many points I have. It would be great if I could exchange them for two legendary resources."

With a hint of anticipation, Bai Qi opened his badge, but upon seeing the points on it, he couldn't help but feel an urge to swear.

I have quite a few points, almost double what I had before I left, and the data card is perfectly set.

Name: Bai Qi

[Points]: 19W9K

……

Legendary resources cost 99999 each, and two resources would cost nearly 200,000. Now, he's only 1,000 short. How could Bai Qi not be depressed?

"Is it too late for me to go back and do some more tasks...?"

Bai Qi scratched his head forcefully. According to the association's rules, President Qin could not inform the trainees of the specific scores for the third stage before the final scores were announced. Although he wasn't worried about cheating, it would still be very upsetting if such a situation occurred.

"Aha, Bai Qi, I've found you!"

Just as Bai Qi was having a headache, a roar suddenly came from behind him, interrupting his thoughts.

That voice... it sounds so familiar...

Bai Qi stiffly turned his head, looked at Zhou Yan, Xiao Yuan and the others behind him who were full of fighting spirit, and suddenly accelerated and ran towards the Tower of Sacred Relics.

These people are really persistent; weren't they just in the Green Dragon Secret Realm a moment ago?

"Hey! Thief, don't run away!"

Seeing this, Zhou Yan immediately summoned his general's spirit, which instantly stood in front of Bai Qi, pointing his spear and saying, "You dare to run away when you see your chieftain? Second Master, are you trying to commit insubordination?"

"Senior, please let me go. I was thinking of exchanging for some resources first."

"Exchange resources? That's even more unacceptable. How can I give you another chance to strengthen yourself? Now, come with me to the Arena Tower for a battle!"

At this moment, Zhou Yan was remarkably clear-headed. Without hesitation, he rejected Bai Qi's request, grabbed Bai Qi, and rushed straight towards the Tower of Arena.

Behind them were Xiao Yuan and his companions, who couldn't help but chuckle.

"As expected, only Zhou Yan can handle Bai Qi."

Xiao Yuan smiled and said, "I've been looking forward to this battle for a long time."

"Me too."

Li Mu nodded. A monarch-level ancient species should be enough to bridge the gap between pet beasts, right?

……

Tower of Arena.

Amidst the puzzled looks of the group, Bai Qi was dragged into the battle room by Zhou Yan. Then, the group lined up and said, "Hey, don't say I didn't take care of you. There are four of you here, you can pick and choose whichever you like."

Thank you.

Bai Qi smacked his lips. He had no problem with this kind of concubine selection process, but couldn't they change the setting?

However, there's no escaping it.

Thinking of this, Bai Qi stood up, dusted himself off, and said, "Then let's attack Gushan first."

Since we're going to fight anyway, we might as well have a proper battle and see if it helps us understand the strength of our allies.

Moreover, he was also very curious about Gu Shan's current strength.

A fourth-tier beast tamer with a total of eight pet beasts, combined with the elemental resonance talent.

If they were to fight, it would be quite a spectacle.

I wonder if Gu Shan's brain can handle controlling eight pet beasts at the same time. He'll probably develop a split personality, right?

Koyama Mega Evolution: Yamata no Orochi?

"Sigh, let's attack Gushan first..."

Seeing that Bai Qi didn't choose the strongest option to make an example of someone, Zhou Yan's little plan completely failed, and he was a little disappointed. However, he quickly recovered, grabbed Gu Shan, and said fiercely.

"Gu Shan, teach this guy a lesson. Your dual talents are no weaker than his non-combat talents."

"Um."

Gu Shan's face flushed slightly, and he nodded gently. Then he took the lead and walked into the battlefield. With a wave of his hand, eight talisman arrays appeared one by one.

"Gu Shan, a fourth-tier beast tamer, whose pets include the lord-level creatures: Jade Vine Python, Golden Cat, Great Waterfall Turtle, Volcano Sparrow, Scaled Beast, Flame Winged Serpent, Yang Candle Spirit, and Yin Ghost. Please give me your guidance."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eight pet beasts were summoned and surrounded the ancient mountain, as if they were guarding their king.

"Tsk tsk... Although I know it's impossible, I'm still quite envious to see so many summoned pets."

Bai Qi smacked his lips and went inside as well.
