Beast Tamer: I'm invincible because I can see the evolution path!

Chapter 137 Alliance Headquarters: Qiao Bai, are you fucking toxic?! Qiao Bai: Peaceful and quiet life.

Luo Ningling couldn't find the reason for the long time.

Miss Feihua and Miss Muling's lagging strength made it difficult for Luo Ningling to advance further. Even if she remained at the seventh-level Beast Tamer, Luo Ningling was quite satisfied, since she never expected to reach this point.

At most, I feel a little bit of regret.

Compared to the pet that has been with me for so many years, the pet is still more important.

However, the situation of Miss Feihua and Miss Muling is not just a matter of their strength lagging behind and stagnating.

"I don't know if it's because they were too weak at birth, but Feihua and Muling's physical condition is not as good as their peers, and they are also very easy to get injured." Luo Ningling sighed again: "I have been to the pet center for check-ups many times, and the doctor's diagnosis is only that there are individual differences."

"There is no way to cure it through medical means and equipment."

In short, it can be summed up in two words: short-lived.

This is something Luo Ningling cannot accept.

That's why, after learning about the appearance of the Illusionary Mist in the Forbidden Land of Tianhe City, the other seventh-tier and eighth-tier Beast Tamers remained in a wait-and-see state, while only Luo Ningling rushed in headfirst.

It's really not because she's recklessly bold.

Rather, she had a compelling reason to go.

To Luo Ningling's surprise, the illusory mist in the forbidden area of ​​Tianhe City did not bring her a turning point, but the first-hand information about Qiao Bai that she obtained after she came out did bring her a turning point.

Luo Ningling: That's right! This must be a destined encounter!

Luo Ningling thought to herself with absolute certainty.

If she hadn't accepted the rescue mission and learned in advance that a little girl's pet was injured in the Illusionary Mist, she wouldn't have learned about the Violent Giant Bear's evolution so quickly.

The more Luo Ningling thought about it, the more she felt that this was indeed the case.

Qiao Bai was the person her sixth sense told her she was looking for!

moment.

Luo Ningling's gaze towards Qiao Bai became much more intense.

Qiao Bai: "..."

cough cough.

Convergence point.

There's really no need to get so worked up.

However, since he had learned a lot of special information from Luo Ningling, he would naturally do his best to help Luo Ningling and first check on the situation of Miss Feihua and Miss Muling.

Unlock your talent skills.

Just one glance was enough to make Qiao Bai frown subconsciously.

kindness……?

Can you do this?

……

Star City.

Beast Taming Alliance Headquarters.

Night fell.

The headquarters building was still brightly lit.

work?

get off work?

No, no.

They volunteered to work overtime!

Overtime makes people progress, overtime makes people happy, overtime makes people happy... cough cough, I can't make this up anymore.

No strangers dared to approach or pass by the Beast Taming Alliance headquarters building.

The reason is that the resentment emanating from inside is simply too strong.

Just passing by seems to be haunted by the heavy resentment within.

Anyone who can bypass this place should do so.

Human resentment can sometimes be more troublesome than that of supernatural beings!

Ning Ruxue had a momentary hallucination as she walked downstairs, as if the entire building was shrouded in an invisible aura of resentment.

Ning Ruxue: "..."

Or should we turn back?

I don't think today is a suitable time.

Originally, she wanted to ask about the outcome of Qiao Bai's award, but she hadn't heard any news about it. Ning Ruxue believed that she admired Qiao Bai, so it wasn't unreasonable for her to care about the situation of such an outstanding junior.

But the Beast Taming Alliance has a special situation...

Let's skip it today.

Come back in a couple of days.

Ning Ruxue turned around and went back to the Inspectorate.

Compared to the busyness at the Beast Taming Alliance headquarters, the Inspectorate was much more relaxed at the end of the year. After all, they had visited almost all the cities that needed to be visited, and at the end of the year, they only needed to help with the protection of the Star City walls.

That's a mindless and reckless thing to do.

It's so much easier than mental work.

The lights in the main hall are not bright incandescent bulbs; the warm colors make people feel relaxed at first glance. Among the many offices, only a few are still lit up, including the tea room.

Ning Ruxue, who was originally planning to go back to the office to process some more documents before going home, paused and walked towards the tea room.

As soon as the door opened.

Unsurprisingly, Ning Ruxue and Wang Nianyan looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Cough cough." Wang Nianyan, who was chugging a large bottle of cola into a cup, paused for a moment, and his expression stiffened a bit, but experience still prevails.

The old man quickly composed himself, putting down his cola naturally, and asked seriously, "Huh? Didn't you go to headquarters to see your friend? Why are you back so soon?"

There was absolutely no preparation.

"Teacher, don't try to change the subject." Ning Ruxue stepped forward and took away the carbonated drink that was still bubbling in front of Wang Nianyan: "It's so late and you're still sneaking a drink here. I'm definitely going to tell your wife this time."

Wang Nianyan coughed even more forcefully: "Hey! What's the rush! We can talk this over!"

"By the way, do you want to know about that kid you're interested in? I have some updates on him." Wang Nianyan winked at Ning Ruxue and said, "All you need to do is... cough cough, you know what I mean."

As he spoke, Wang Nianyan's gaze kept drifting to the drink that Ning Ruxue was holding.

He used a can of cola to coax Lao Wang into submission.

That's him I'm talking about!

Ning Ruxue: "..."

The hand holding the cup tightened slightly.

What's new with Qiao Bai?

What new developments has Qiao Bai made recently?

Ning Ruxue couldn't help but go through it in her mind.

It's almost the end of the year, and the New Year is just around the corner. As for Qiao Bai... wasn't the recent news about Old Master Huo's Altera evolution enough of a shock?

In less than half a month, Qiao Bai couldn't possibly have created some big news again... right?

As she pondered, Ning Ruxue became somewhat uncertain.

after all.

In terms of unpredictability, Qiao Bai always manages to bring unexpected surprises.

Seeing that her little girl seemed a bit hesitant, Wang Nianyan quickly seized the opportunity to continue throwing out bait: "That's right, that kid you're following has stirred up big news again!"

"I guarantee you'll never guess!" With that, Wang Nianyan chuckled, glancing at the Coke Ning Ruxue was holding and winking, his meaning quite clear.

Although Ning Ruxue was eager to know about Qiao Bai's new developments, she wasn't going to give in so easily: "Tell me first, and I'll consider whether or not to give it to you."

Wang Nianyan gave his student a meaningful look.

Gee tut.

They've gone astray.

I don't know who I learned it from.

However, Wang Nianyan knew that Ning Ruxue was a person of her word, so he coughed twice and started talking about the Illusionary Mist, Chu Yanyi, and the Violent Giant Bear.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I really didn't expect it. A truly capable person is truly capable." As he spoke, Wang Nianyan shook his head and said, "He can do what others can do better, and he can do what others can't do."

Wang Nianyan gave a thumbs up and silently uttered two words: "Awesome."

Ning Ruxue's eyes widened suddenly.

As a sixth-tier beast tamer with Wang Nianyan as her teacher, Ning Ruxue did know about the news and stories related to the Illusionary Mist, even though her own level was not high enough.

She also knew how much the nation and the alliance hoped to study the evolutionary path of those extraordinary creatures that had absorbed the mist.

She understood the difficulty involved even more.

but.

Qiao Bai did it.

"The award you're worried about is definitely in the bag." Wang Nianyan shook his head and couldn't help but sigh, "Young people these days do one big thing after another. We older generation have really been swept away by the tide."

"The Alliance headquarters will definitely have new arrangements for Qiao Bai soon..." Wang Nianyan said with deep emotion.

The young people these days—they are truly astonishing!

And this step is far too big!

While the other pet professors had just learned how to use lighting tools and barely managed to cross the river in the dark, Qiao Bai had already boarded the ferry and was running forward with great speed, leaving everyone else behind.

The kind that even a horse couldn't catch up to!

Ning Ruxue: "..."

Ning Ruxue remained expressionless.

I was so shocked that I really didn't know what kind of expression I should wear.

Will the alliance really... make new, more focused arrangements for Qiao Bai?

The violent giant bear that absorbed the mist has a new evolutionary path under Qiao Bai's research... It is indeed shocking and makes people's heads buzz.

But perhaps this is just an isolated case?

What if Qiao Bai can't figure out a new evolutionary path for other extraordinary creatures that have absorbed the mist?

Ning Ruxue didn't say anything, but Wang Nianyan understood what she meant.

Wang Nianyan gave Ning Ruxue a meaningful look.

What do you think?

So many years have passed, and I've never encountered a professor with a pet beast like Qiao Bai before...

Regardless of what Qiao Bai's future holds, or whether he will suffer the same fate as Zhong Yong, just based on Qiao Bai's current abilities and achievements, the level of importance the country and the government attach to him will definitely increase dramatically!

Otherwise, it would be a disservice to their high regard for the Mysterious Mist!

"The importance of the Illusionary Mist is far greater than you imagine. Knowing too much before reaching the required level isn't good for you," Wang Nianyan said with a chuckle. "You think the Alliance is so busy now that it's almost the end of the year?"

Ning Ruxue, finally connecting the two events, was speechless.

Ah... this one...

Suddenly I'm not sure whether I should wish Qiao Bai well or feel sorry for her friend Jiang Heng.

Recalling the intense resentment she saw at the entrance of the Alliance headquarters tonight, which had materialized into a tangible form, Ning Ruxue was very glad that she hadn't gone inside.

The Alliance headquarters must be incredibly busy because of Qiao Bai's situation.

Working non-stop is nothing to them.

Seeing Ning Ruxue standing there blankly, lost in a mental whirlwind, Wang Nianyan gently took his life-giving fountain back from her hand.

One sip, and it tastes delicious... but it doesn't taste delicious at all.

"Pfft—" After taking a bite, Wang Nianyan couldn't help but spit it out.

"What kind of weird taste is this! I don't believe this is my happy water!" Wang Nianyan's face turned red with anger as he slammed his fist on the table.

Ning Ruxue snapped out of her daze, glanced calmly at her teacher who, despite her age, refused to admit it, and said in a cold tone, "Oh, cherry wasabi flavor, a limited-edition new flavor. I bought it specifically to show my respect for you."

"Isn't it pretty good?"

Wang Nianyan: "..."

Heartbroken!

It's heartbreaking!

His students have really gone astray!

hateful!

His happiness is gone!

Having lost everything in one night, including all the information and not even getting the drink he craved, Wang Nianyan was like a squeezed-dry sugarcane, slumped listlessly on the sofa, cursing this cold and heartless world.

Ning Ruxue: ...Teacher, whatever makes you happy.

……

New York City.

Qiao Bai Research Institute.

Qiao Bai was unaware that the Star City Beast Taming Alliance headquarters in the central region was in an uproar over the new evolutionary path of the Violent Giant Bear that he had researched today. Everyone was busy running around, holding large and small meetings, arguing heatedly about how to treat Qiao Bai and what kind of treatment he should receive... and so on.

The main point is that they discuss it first.

They should come up with a treatment worthy of a top genius like Qiao Bai before contacting him; this would show them more sincerity!

At this moment, Qiao Bai was still studying Miss Fei Hua and Miss Mu Ling in front of him.

When Qiao Bai activated his talent skill, he was somewhat surprised.

A scene never before seen...

Can you do this?

[Pet: Miss Flying Flower/Miss Wood Spirit]

【Attribute: Wood】

[Type: Intermediate-level Extraordinary]

[Level: Tier 6, Low-level Transcendent]

[Skills: Parasite, Entanglement, Shadowless Vine Whip, ..., Sweet Scent]

【Twin Flowers: A special situation where the mother nurtures two similar yet different life forms simultaneously under special circumstances. They are like two distinct individuals on one tree, sharing potential and abilities. Even a slight imbalance in energy and abilities will affect the other, and they need to maintain an absolute balance (with inherent weakness buffs, shared damage, etc.)】

Don't be sad, Beast Tamer.

We'll accompany the Beastmaster!

Qiao Bai: "..."

Good guy.

I've learned something new.

So... Miss Feihua and Miss Muling are twins?

Can this be done?

A big question mark appeared above Qiao Bai's head.

I've learned something new.

He really learned a lot.

Moreover, compared to Miss Feihua and Miss Muling, Qiao Bai was more interested in the story of their mothers and fathers... It wasn't that he wanted to gossip, he was just a little curious about what kind of magical and extraordinary creature could do that... cough cough.

Qiao Bai felt that he had been coughing a lot today, and he needed to control it. He really needed to control it well from now on.

"Hmm...can I give Miss Feihua and Miss Muling a check-up?" Qiao Bai thought for a moment and looked at Luo Ningling.

Luo Ningling: "Yes, that's fine."

"But Professor Qiao Bai, if you have any questions, you can ask me directly. Fei Hua and Mu Ling have done many of the tests before." Luo Ningling's face showed a deep sense of melancholy and hesitation.

you do not say.

She had previously consulted a pet professor who was quite knowledgeable about wood-type pets to check on Miss Feihua and Miss Muling's situation.

A lot of checks were done, and a lot of equipment was used.

But there was nothing at all.

Finally, I had a thick stack of medical examination reports in my hand.

Luo Ningling dared to say that as long as Qiao Bai wanted to have a test, she could pull out the corresponding previous medical examination report. At most, there would be a gap of six months or a year between them. Miss Feihua and Miss Muling's physical conditions had changed a little, but they could still be used as a comparison.

then……

Qiao Bai: "I'd like to check the spectra of Miss Feihua and Miss Muling."

In a word.

This left the two of them dumbfounded.

Both Luo Ningling and Xie Jin, who was standing to the side, had obvious expressions of confusion on their faces.

spectrum?

What spectrum?

Is it the spectrum they know?

"Professor Qiao Bai, this shouldn't be necessary, right?" Xie Jin's gaze first fell on Miss Fei Hua, then on Miss Mu Ling beside her, and finally met Qiao Bai's gaze, his eyes filled with deep confusion and bewilderment.

Luo Ningling didn't speak. She just touched her chin and pursed her red lips slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

"I just had this guess, but it wouldn't hurt to check," Qiao Bai said calmly.

spectrum.

It is the DNA of extraordinary beings.

While being unique, it also stores a large amount of genetic information of extraordinary organisms. By comparing the spectrum, the paternal lineage, maternal lineage, and siblings can be identified.

The parents of extraordinary beings are not necessarily of the same species, but the children born to the same couple will definitely be of the same species. Generally, the parent with the more dominant bloodline will prevail over the parent with the less dominant bloodline, or the bloodlines of both parents may combine in some wondrous way to give birth to a brand new species of extraordinary being.

But there has never been a case of two children of different breeds born to the same parents.

It does not conform to existing theories of supernatural biological reproduction.

"Maybe they're half-siblings or half-brothers," Qiao Bai said with a smile, revealing the truth.

Xie Jin pushed up his glasses again, looking at Qiao Bai with a helpless expression: "Professor Qiao Bai, is it alright if you don't need to test me anymore at this point?"

"Even if Miss Feihua and Miss Muling are truly half-siblings, it's impossible to find a connection between their spectra."

Although his knowledge of supernatural biological reproduction is not very useful, he still has this basic knowledge.

Qiao Bai smiled without saying a word.

Don't speak too soon.

A large forest has all kinds of birds, not to mention... don't ask about the ecology of extraordinary creatures!

A question mark means that it hasn't been fully studied yet.

Anything can happen.

Making pronouncements too early and too definitive is risky; you might end up being proven wrong.

"Let's give it a try... my sixth sense..." Luo Ningling's face scrunched up, her small nose twitching: "...Anyway, I just don't know how to describe it, let's give it a try."

Xie Jin, who knew all too well just how flawed Luo Ningling's sixth sense was, was speechless.

Xie Jin's expression faltered for a moment.

His gaze swept quickly over Miss Feihua and Miss Muling, filled with disbelief.

no……?

real or fake?

Is this even possible?

Miss Flying Flower and Miss Wood Spirit: "?"

"miya~"

"nalu~"

What are you saying?

We know nothing!

Instruments that detect extraordinary biospectroscopy can produce test results much faster than human paternity tests, and technological advancements have brought considerable convenience in this regard.

"This...this is...unbelievable! Shocking! Who could have imagined this!" Xie Jin looked at the result in his hand, so shocked that his glasses slipped off his ears.

incredible.

It's hard to believe this is true.

While Miss Feihua and Miss Muling were comparing the wavelength fluctuations of the spectra, Luo Ningling had already taken off the sunglasses on her face. Her large, light amber eyes stared unblinkingly at the two nearly overlapping, highly similar spectra with only a slight difference that was invisible to the naked eye and could only be observed with instruments. She couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.

"This...so...this..." Luo Ningling's tongue seemed to be tied in knots, and her ability to speak had temporarily stopped.

"Just as you can see, Miss Feihua and Miss Muling are not only related by blood, but they are also very close, so close that they are like one individual." Luo Ningling and Xie Jin stammered, but Qiao Bai, who already knew the result, did not.

He calmly stated his conclusion: "According to common human physiological knowledge, they should be identical twins."

Xie Jin: "..."

Luo Ningling: "..."

Whose identical twins turned out to be two completely different breeds?

This...this this this!

This not only contradicts the reproductive science of extraordinary organisms, but it also contradicts human biology!

Qiao Bai: "There are still many unknowns about extraordinary beings."

Don't ask about the ecology of extraordinary creatures.

Xie Jin and Luo Ningling fell silent once again.

Don't tell.

You know what?

This reason... is just too versatile.

More than a thousand years.

Humanity's research into extraordinary beings has never stopped. As long as one is willing to study, one can always discover things from extraordinary beings that were previously unknown, over a year, three years, five years, or even ten years.

This amazing situation of identical twins, but completely different species... is impossible for humans, but that doesn't mean it's impossible for extraordinary beings!

"If you put yourself in the shoes of heterochromatic twin flowers, doesn't it seem less difficult to understand?" Qiao Bai added.

Xie Jin took off his glasses with a headache, rubbed his temples, and decided to remain silent.

Tired.

The final result of Miss Feihua and Miss Muling's questions... was far beyond his imagination and beyond his normal understanding. It almost overturned his worldview and cognitive perspective.

"A pair of heterochromatic twins..." Compared to Xie Jin, Luo Ning, who was originally carefree and easygoing, quickly accepted the result after repeating Qiao Bai's words twice.

"Ah...! It really does look alike!" Luo Ningling nodded frantically: "When Feihua was sick, Muling's condition wasn't very good either; when Muling was injured, Feihua's condition would also be affected, and she would become listless."

"I hadn't thought about it much before, but if that's the case... then everything makes sense!"

in the river.

In the Ganges River.

Very Beaver.

"Yes." Qiao Bai nodded and looked at Miss Fei Hua and Miss Mu Ling and said, "Although they appear to be separate individuals on the surface, and they themselves are not even aware that they are actually one, from the perspective of the ecology of extraordinary creatures, they actually share a body and a root that grows downwards. However, their blooming and growth require double the energy."

The rate at which a root absorbs energy is there.

Other wood-attribute pets only need one unit of energy to grow normally, but Miss Flying Flower and Miss Wood Spirit need to share one unit of energy during their growth process, and this energy must be evenly distributed between them.

If one side has more excess, the other side will wither.

If one side wilts, the other side will also be affected.

In Qiao Bai's opinion, this kind of physique is simply a case of each person dragging the other down.

It's really no wonder that Miss Feihua and Miss Muling are growing up so slowly.

As Qiao Bai said.

It's a miracle that Miss Feihua and Miss Muling were able to grow to the sixth-tier low level. As for why they haven't evolved yet... it's not surprising at all. With such a mutually dragging-down partner, how could they possibly evolve?

Do you really think evolution is something that can be done casually, something you can do whenever you want?

"What should I do next?" Having never encountered this situation before and having no precedent to follow, Luo Ningling anxiously rubbed the hem of her clothes with both hands, and couldn't help but look to Qiao Bai for help.

Except for Qiao Bai.

Luo Ningling really couldn't think of anyone else who could better solve this situation.

What to do... Qiao Bai's gaze fell on the line of text: [Evolution route locked*].

[Evolutionary path locked: The Twin Beauties of Qiluo]

【The Twin Beauties of Qiluo: Miss Feihua → Peach Pink Feihua Beauty; Miss Muling → Plain Green Muling Beauty; Peach Pink Feihua Beauty + Plain Green Muling Beauty = The Twin Beauties of Qiluo】

Evolutionary methods:

好感度100（91/100）（90/100)

默契度100（85/100）（88/100）

……

……

……

吸收并融合原始之气总数18缕（21/18）（20/18）

Evolution is possible after all requirements are met.

Other conditions are not very difficult; the most important key lies in the absorption and integration of primordial energy.

Fortunately.

Miss Feihua and Miss Muling not only met their expectations, but exceeded them; the rest can be achieved through time and adjustment.

Furthermore, Miss Feihua and Miss Muling absorbed too much primordial energy, which also needs to be balanced.

If Luo Ningling were to do it herself, she wouldn't be able to control the amount properly, whether it's balancing the two sides or not exceeding the limit, but with Qiao Bai there, it's different.

"Evolution," Qiao Bai suggested, offering a solution.

Luo Ningling: "?"

"Flying Flowers and Wood Spirits just can't evolve into me, that's why..." Luo Ningling's words suddenly stopped halfway through. She looked sharply in Qiao Bai's direction, her little fox-like eyes revealing a deep shock and silliness, and her red lips unconsciously widened.

Qiao Bai nodded: "Your sixth sense helped you. The Illusionary Mist is beneficial to both Miss Feihua and Miss Muling."

Without absorbing the primordial energy, Miss Feihua and Miss Muling would not have a new chosen evolutionary path. Faced with this special situation of twins, Qiao Bai could only back down, shrug his shoulders, and had no other choice.

But as long as extraordinary beings can evolve, Qiao Bai can uncover this evolutionary path.

Then solve the problem.

"However, Miss Feihua and Miss Muling's situations are rather special. I need some time to research a suitable evolutionary path..." Qiao Bai's words were interrupted by Luo Ningling, who was excitedly rushing towards him.

Luo Ningling immediately hugged Qiao Bai excitedly. Wearing tall boots, she was just the same height as Qiao Bai. Her soft body pressed against him, her fragrant breath brushing against his ear, and her soft voice was full of gratitude: "It's nothing! Thank you so much, Professor Qiao Bai!"

"Time is no object!"

"I'll be staying at your research institute for a while!" A sweet kiss landed on Qiao Bai's cheek. Before Qiao Bai could react, Luo Ningling came to her senses first, shyly letting go of Qiao Bai's arms, and disappeared from Qiao Bai's sight.

Xie Jin and Qiao Bai were left awkwardly staring at each other.

"Um... Ning Ling... she didn't mean it..." Xie Jin wanted to explain for his artist, but seeing Luo Ning Ling disappear in a flash and the lipstick mark still on Qiao Bai's face, Xie Jin couldn't say anything.

Tired heart.

Can we just let this world be destroyed like this?

Compared to Luo Ningling's shyness and Xie Jin's embarrassment, Qiao Bai was far too calm, as if the person who had just thrown herself into his arms was not a bright and beautiful woman at all. He reached out and wiped the lipstick mark on his face: "It's okay, I know Miss Luo was too excited, her body acted faster than her brain."

Xie Jin: "..."

Are all scholars this good at swearing?

Forget it.

If you're brainless, then you're brainless.

At the same time, Xie Jin couldn't help but admire Qiao Bai a little.

He remained unmoved by the advances of a beautiful woman, without harboring any other romantic thoughts. No wonder he is both a genius professor and a powerful beast tamer!

It's completely free of vulgarity!

Qiao Bai, who simply had no interest or sexual desire for Luo Ningling due to her overly oblivious behavior, was left speechless.

……

Star City.

Chicken soup for the soul—Others' success is due to their hard work.

Have you ever seen the sun at six in the morning?

Employees at the Beast Taming Alliance headquarters: smiling.jpg

They may not have seen the sun at six in the morning, but they must have seen the moon at four in the morning!

They won't sleep until the moon does!

Those who remain at the Alliance headquarters at this point are all elite employees. They have a deep understanding of the impact of the Illusionary Mist on extraordinary creatures, and they understand just how precious and important Qiao Bai is, who is able to research a new evolutionary path for extraordinary creatures that have absorbed the Illusionary Mist!

It's a national treasure—if Qiao Bai can maintain this level of performance!

"...Although I really want to complain a bit, the thought that someone actually figured out a new evolutionary path for extraordinary creatures that can absorb the mist...makes me tremble with excitement, and I wish I could work another ten hours!"

"NSDD! Me too! Really! I can't believe it! Someone actually did it!"

"If this news gets out... not to mention overseas, just domestically, especially among those eighth-tier beast tamers, they'll absolutely go crazy! Danger? Isn't it because the opportunity exists, but they can't capitalize on it? Now that Professor Qiao Bai is here, aren't they still rushing in desperately? They're just afraid of falling behind even a step!"

"The higher-ups discussed it for most of the night, and the specific benefits they're going to offer are still unclear, but promotions, national-level researcher benefits, honorary professorships... everything that can be arranged has been arranged! The difference between people, the difference between me and geniuses..."

I'm not going to say anything more.

If I keep talking, I really won't be able to hold back my tears.

The other colleagues nearby: "..."

"Can't you even recognize the difference between you two? They're the big shots. We're just corporate slaves. Is there even a comparison? I'm asking you, is there even a comparison?"

The two are not even in the same league.

Forcing them together will only make them look inappropriate!

The truth hits home.

But thinking back to the shock and disbelief I felt upon learning that the Violent Giant Bear had evolved into a new form... it didn't seem so heartbreaking after all.

It's not that I can't understand it.

Just like the difference between superhuman beings, Qiao Bai and them are not the same species.

"Hey, I heard that the seventh-tier beast tamer, Luo Yinghou, went straight to find Qiao Bai after she came out of the forbidden area in Tianhe City. What do you guys think..."

"What good luck! Actress Luo is incredibly lucky! As soon as the news of the new evolved form of the Violent Giant Bear came out, it was quickly suppressed. If we hadn't been keeping an eye on Professor Qiao Bai or those people who had previously entered the forbidden area of ​​Tianhe City, we wouldn't have been able to find out about this through any other channels, let alone go to Professor Qiao Bai!"

And a little later.

Once Professor Qiao Bai's latest achievements are made public on a small scale... Professor Qiao Bai's status will undergo a dramatic change!

Do you want to ask Qiao Bai for help again later?

That's not such an easy thing!

Luo Ningling did indeed arrive at the perfect time; if she had been a step slower, she would have been stopped.

When Luo Ningling arrived in NY City, the Star City headquarters learned of her whereabouts, so they didn't say anything.

On the one hand, Luo Ningling arrived at the perfect time.

On the other hand... those who received the news of the blockade also wanted to know if Qiao Bai, whose pet beast had also entered the forbidden area of ​​Tianhe City and come into contact with the Illusionary Mist, and was most likely to have absorbed the Illusionary Mist, could also research a new evolutionary path.

If possible...

The group exchanged glances, their unspoken understanding unspoken.

As the staff members thought about this, the atmosphere among them gradually became strange.

"Don't overthink it. If that's really the case... we'll have to work overtime!"

Others: "..."

well.

The word "overtime" disrupted the jumbled thoughts in their minds.

Thinking about working overtime...

"I love my job! I love working overtime! Work makes me happy! Working overtime gives me boundless energy!"

Not crazy!

They swear they're not crazy!

These are their heartfelt thoughts!

I'm so happy!

……

"Haqiu—" Qiao Bai, half asleep, sneezed, which made the little black bird and the cat-like insect lying on either side of his blanket tremble. The little white snake, which was curled up on Qiao Bai's stomach, was also shaken so much that it jumped up and then landed back on Qiao Bai's stomach.

Qiao Bai didn't wake up even after that.

He closed his eyes and went back to sleep.

Qiao Bai slept soundly until dawn without any dreams. Only then did he get up, wash up, and begin his day with a routine meditation.

When Qiao Bai finished getting ready and walked out of the room, he ran into Chu Yanyi, who was wearing a tight training uniform, his forehead and back covered in sweat, having just finished his morning combat training.

"Good morning!" Chu Yanyi wiped the sweat from her forehead and greeted Qiao Bai with a smile. "Are you going to training too?"

Qiao Bai nodded.

"May I watch from the sidelines?" Chu Yanyi asked again.

As one of the first senior students to meet Qiao Bai at Qingniao University and have maintained contact with him ever since, Chu Yanyi understands Qiao Bai's initial strength better than anyone else, and therefore feels even more shocked - how exactly did Qiao Bai do it?

When she first met Qiao Bai, he only had one pet, Xiao Wu.

After losing to her fourth-tier violent giant bear, he couldn't bring out a second pet to continue fighting her.

But how long has it been?

In less than a year.

Qiao Bai's first pet, Xiao Wu, managed to utterly defeat her strongest pet, the Tier 5 Violent Giant Bear.

That's not all.

Qiao Bai also contracted two new pet beasts, both of which were quite powerful.

Chu Yanyi's gaze met that of the little black bird, the cat-like insect, and the little white snake that was wrapped around Qiao Bai's arm with only its head peeking out. His eyes were filled with curiosity about Qiao Bai's training methods.

Want to learn.

Chu Yanyi's eyes were filled with those two words.

"Sure, it's just a training method. Go ahead and watch if you want," Qiao Bai said nonchalantly.

Then... Qiao Bai began his daily morning training with his three pet beasts.

Start with the most basic warm-up: running laps.

From the proficient use of skills.

The battles between pets gradually evolved into a brawl between three pets.

At first, Chu Yanyi thought she could learn from and imitate Chu Yanyi, but as she looked at her, more and more question marks appeared above her head.

No?

Is this really a normal training method?

Chu Yanyi wasn't the only one who thought this way. Luo Ningling, who "happened" to "pass by," also had the same doubt after seeing Qiao Bai's training method: "Is this training method really effective?"

"Wow! This bird looks amazing!" Luo Ningling's eyes lit up with a desire to fight as she watched the little bird use its skills.

Just do it.

Luo Ningling hopped and skipped around, waving enthusiastically in Qiao Bai's direction, a warm smile on her face: "Professor Qiao Bai, would you like to challenge me to a match!"

Chu Yanyi: "?"

Chu Yanyi looked in shock in Luo Ningling's direction.

Wait...wait?

Where is the aloof beauty, taciturn, unsociable, and cliff-climbing actress we were promised?

That smile, that personality… Chu Yanyi’s expression was somewhat dazed.

Xie Jin, who was a step too late leaving the house and barely managed to catch up, didn't even have time to remind Luo Ningling to be mindful of her appearance: "..."

Seeing Luo Ningling, who was overjoyed that Qiao Bai had agreed to fight her, and Chu Yanyi, who was in a daze upon seeing the actress's drastically changed appearance, Xie Jin chose to remain silent.

He was almost tired of saying the word "tired."

What else can we do?

As long as Luo Ningling is happy.

At the same time, he silently prayed in his heart: hoping that Professor Qiao Bai could display his great power and subdue this monster... Professor Qiao Bai seemed a little disgusted?
