Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 491 The Eldest Son of the Xia Family

Seeing Bai Qi's appearance, Professor Chu's expression gradually softened.

Seeing this, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the death metal inside the experimental chamber and asked, "Professor Chu, do you think this death metal can be replicated?"

Professor Chu remained silent for a moment, then said, "Give me some time and I should be able to handle the metallic components. As for the biological structure, your parents should be able to do that as well. However, the most difficult part is fusing these two parts together."

"Speaking of which, the parts that are fused with the armed evolutionary machinery and flesh are somewhat similar to the state of this death metal. It's a pity that we relied on the light of evolution; artificial fusion has not been successful so far."

Professor Chu sighed. The reason why mechanically armed biological systems had not been widely adopted before was that they could not break through this barrier.

While armed evolution solved this problem, the technology itself still did not achieve a breakthrough, even with the help of the light of evolution.

Bai Qi showed the same expression upon seeing this, but at the same time became increasingly curious about the background of the Death Round Table.

He had already learned from the Thirteenth Bureau that Sima Jing throwing out the Death Metal was actually a way of secretly transmitting information.

The technology for Death Metal is currently only mastered by the Death Round Table, and the Tsukatora Foundation could never achieve it on its own, so the trail ends here.

It seems I can only rely on myself.

Bai Qi sighed, and after discussing the matter with Professor Chu for a while longer, he returned to the grassland base.

Even with the information provided by the Tower of Relics, it will probably still take Professor Chu and his parents quite some time to analyze the complete structure of the Death Metal.

He has little research experience in materials science and is not involved in it, so it's better for him to continue studying the areas he is familiar with.

He pondered the complete version of the Soul-Transferring Curse Seal.

……

"Phew~ The full version is indeed very complicated."

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Qi finally raised his head, looked at the complex holographic projections in front of him, and rubbed his eyes.

As he had anticipated, the main function of these enchantments on the angel statue's base was to transfer souls to the soul-binding enchantments on the death knights, thereby controlling them in battle.

To make it easier to distinguish, Bai Qi called this part the Soul Transmission Incantation Seal.

Compared to the Soul Transference Seal, the Soul Transmission Seal has a more complex structure, with various functions interlocking in one another, making it quite difficult to fully decipher.

"Yu, save my current progress, then copy a new file and continue the deduction."

"Okay, Grandpa."

Suddenly, a boy appeared beside Bai Qi, nodded obediently, and then continued working as Bai Qi had instructed.

After being awakened by Shuke with the fire seed, Yu and the Nine Cauldrons System became increasingly intelligent, even designing an external appearance for themselves in imitation of Bai Qi's.

Originally, Yu wanted to imitate the image of Shuke, but Bai Qi thought it didn't match the name Yu, so he changed it to something else.

"Although its mind is similar to that of a child, the computing power of the Nine Cauldrons System is really strong. It would be a waste to use it only for research."

Looking at Yu's relaxed and carefree expression, Bai Qi unconsciously began to think about what else Yu needed to handle.

Just then, Beta suddenly ran back from the Icefield World, and Shuk and Jerry were returning to his side.

Awoo awoo...

(This dog is taking a nap...)

Beta was quite annoyed. It was a rare treat to be free from the harassment of these two consciousnesses, so she took a nap. But before long, Shuk and Jerry came right back.

"Shuke, Jerry, are you done with class?"

Upon seeing this, Bai Qi immediately asked.

"It's over."

Jerry nodded slightly, then closed his eyes and began to recover.

Compared to Shuke's mechanical mind transfer, he separated his soul as well. Before finding a suitable place to reside, being away for too long would be a considerable burden for him.

If possible, he needs to find a suitable place to put his belongings.

"Delta should be back soon, but Alpha still needs to go to the Beast Taming Combat Training Grounds, so he might be a little late."

Shuke glanced at Bai Qi, then tossed a data sheet in front of him and said, "I want to purchase some materials. Beastmaster, please confirm."

"Materials? You can just buy those yourself, no need to ask... Wait, why did you buy so much? Are you planning to build a mechanical fortress?"

Upon seeing the terrifying list of materials that Shuke sent, Bai Qi was immediately startled.

"More or less."

Shuke nodded and said, "Relying solely on the Mechanical Lord is no longer enough; I need to add some entirely new combat power to my team."

"New combat power, need any help?"

"No need, you can't help."

Bai Qi: "..."

He, the dignified dean of the Super God Evolution Research Institute, was actually disliked by his own pet beast. If word got out, how could he continue to be a beast tamer!

"By the way, we ran into your friends, the Beastmasters, during our necromancy class. They seemed to be looking for you."

Just as Bai Qi was about to give Shuke a good talking-to, Shuke suddenly popped his head out of the research lab and said...

"Friend, is it Koyama and the others?"

Bai Qi was taken aback when he heard this, and Delta, who had also returned from class, confirmed it.

"Never mind, let's go check on them first."

Bai Qi sighed, then mounted Delta and left the secret realm, heading straight for the Star Machine Academy.

……

Star Machine Academy.

"Tea Bro, is this how you guys usually have classes?"

Bai Yuxiao yawned and listlessly followed Bai Qiucha, asking...

After arriving in Gusu City with Bai Heguang, Bai Heguang quickly helped him and Gu Shan complete their enrollment procedures and placed them in Bai Qiucha's class, where they began their studies immediately.

It wasn't that he couldn't persevere; Bai and Guang had given him a strict order: if any teacher said the same thing to him, he would be sent back to the Tower of Arena. So he was still studying quite diligently.

However, after seeing that both teachers were Bai Qi's pet beasts, Bai Yuxiao couldn't hold back anymore.

"No, that's not it. Bai Qi used to come to the Necromancer's class by himself. He was probably too busy today, so he didn't come in person."

Bai Qiucha smiled faintly and said, "Besides, I think Jerry explained it very well. I've gained a lot of insights today."

"That's what I think too."

Gu Shan nodded and said.

Alpha taught him rune lessons. Although it wasn't a basic course, Alpha's understanding of combat runes was indeed very insightful, and Gushan benefited greatly from it.

"You two are taking this way a little too seriously."

Bai Yuxiao sighed helplessly, and was about to continue complaining when she saw the two of them suddenly stop.

Beast Taming Combat System.

The Beast Taming Combat Department is a department found in every academy, and it is also the most unique department.

The students in this department have only one task every day: combat, all kinds of combat. Even the theoretical classes are related to combat.

After awakening their Beastmaster talent, humans can become Beastmasters and control beasts in battle, but this does not mean they possess the same talent in other aspects.

Therefore, most of the students in the Beast Taming combat system have little interest in theory and specialize in practical combat.

Of course, there are also those who excel in both academics and martial arts within the Beast Taming Combat Department. It is also the only department that allows students to take courses from other departments, and students from other departments can also freely choose the Beast Taming Combat Department.

The same applies to Bai Qiucha and her two companions.

"I remember that among the five departments Bai Qi teaches, there's also a Beast Taming Combat Department? Could it be that Bai Qi's pets are teaching again?"

Looking at the bustling Beast Taming Combat Department building in front of her, Bai Yuxiao had a bad feeling for no reason.

Congratulations, you got it right.

Bai Qi's voice suddenly came from behind Bai Yuxiao, startling her.

"Holy crap, Bai Qi, can you stop scaring me?!"

Bai Yuxiao was so frightened that she jumped up and even activated her talent to make her body ethereal.

"You're too timid; that could be fatal in real combat."

Bai Qi, riding Delta, appeared from the void and instantly switched identities, giving Bai Yuxiao a long lecture.

"Bai Qi, are you done with your work?"

When Bai Qiucha saw Bai Qi appear, she couldn't help but ask.

"Um, am I done with work now?"

Bai Qi chuckled awkwardly and said, "Are you guys going to have a practical training class?"

"That's right. Although the practical combat department of Star Machine Academy isn't the strongest among the top ten academies, it does have some unique features, so Dad enrolled us all."

Bai Qiucha nodded and smiled, "However, since it's Bai Qi who's teaching, things are probably different, aren't they?"

"Perhaps."

Bai Qi shrugged. He hadn't even had time to look at the teaching materials for any of the departments; it was all arranged by Shuke. He figured it would depend on Alpha's performance later.

The four of them entered the Beast Taming Combat Department together, following the connection with Alpha, and arrived at an enormous indoor battle arena.

The area around the battlefield was already filled with beast tamers, and more beast tamers from various departments were still arriving.

The youngest sixth-tier beast tamer in the Federation's history came to teach, and he was also their alumnus. Naturally, these young beast tamers were very excited.

However, upon seeing Alpha in the center of the battlefield, the students from the four disciplines of Undead, Mechanics, Runes, and Biology couldn't help but feel a twitch in the corner of their eye.

It's ridiculous enough that pets are teaching those theoretical classes. Although the classes are effective, why don't they even show up for the practical classes for beast tamers?

"Third brother, this Bai Qi is quite different from what you described. He's quite interesting."

A tall, thin young man sat down next to Xia Xuan, his face full of smiles.

"Big brother, didn't I tell you not to come to school unless it's important?"

Xia Xuan looked at the man beside him with a displeased expression and said.

"I was here on behalf of my dad to discuss a new round of cooperation with the Super God Evolution Research Institute. It just so happened that you were starting school, so I stopped by to drop by."

Xia Ya smiled and said, "It's a pity, though. I was thinking of seeing what kind of person Bai Qi is beforehand, so that it would be easier to deal with him later."

"I knew it..."

Xia Xuan rolled his eyes. As the eldest son in the family, Xia Ya spent most of his time in the business world and never did anything pointless. How could he possibly come to watch him take a class for no reason?

However, even if Bai Qi came today, his older brother probably wouldn't gain anything.

That guy can't be viewed through the eyes of a normal person at all.
