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

Chapter 142 Qiao Bai: An Envy-Inducing Yet Unhateable Figure! A Being to Be Reached From Afar!

But Qiao Bai was still not satisfied.

He's progressing in an even more exaggerated direction... no, I mean evolving!

At that moment, an absurd idea popped into Zhou Xinran's mind.

Qiao Bai is probably some kind of intelligent, extraordinary biological form!

Otherwise, how could someone be such a genius!

Zhou Xinran held her forehead, her expression a complex mix that could not be simply described in words.

However, Zhou Xinran believed that this was not her fault, but rather Qiao Bai's fault!

Qiao Bai.

A boy who always manages to bring her huge surprises unexpectedly.

"Alright, alright..." Zhou Xinran took a few deep breaths, finally accepting the shocking, unbelievable, yet absolutely true news: "If that's really the case, it wouldn't be strange if the school let you graduate early and awarded you an honorary professorship."

"With your current abilities, what else can the school teach you?" Zhou Xinran said sincerely, looking at Qiao Bai.

Let alone what the school could teach Qiao Bai, Zhou Xinran felt that she didn't have anything left to teach Qiao Bai.

From the bottom of my heart—Qiao Baitian was born to make a living from pet evolution.

Everyone thinks that way.

Qiao Bai, however, did not think so.

Qiao Bai: Calm down, calm down. It's basic stuff, just basic stuff.

It's just that the cheat codes are easy to use.

Besides, compared to studying the evolution of pets, which has an answer that can be found at a glance, Qiao Bai is more interested in the more challenging profession of being a beast tamer.

What man could resist becoming a powerful beast tamer?

"I've told you everything I need to say, you can go now." Zhou Xinran waved her hand impatiently at Qiao Bai.

Upset.

Hey.

Watching your own promising seedlings thriving in your own field, only to find them constantly trying to jump into the neighbor's vegetable garden, who wouldn't be frustrated?

More importantly, they couldn't be stopped no matter what.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Qiao Bai smiled and said, "Professor Zhou, don't worry. Although I do want to become a Beast Tamer, it doesn't mean I will completely give up my research on pet evolution. I can do both."

"When you're tired of training and raising pets, it's quite relaxing to take a look at pet evolution."

Zhou Xinran: "..."

Zhou Xinran gave Qiao Bai a look.

Listen to yourself, kid. Is what you're saying even human?

Who would use researching pet evolution as a way to relax?

Oh.

There wasn't before.

But now we have it.

Qiao Baihui.

Zhou Xinran waved again.

Let's go, let's go.

"Okay, then I'm leaving." Qiao Bai didn't linger any longer, and turned to leave Zhou Xinran's office.

Zhou Xinran's languid voice sounded behind Qiao Bai: "Next time you have any research to do, if it's not important, you can tell me in advance. I am your mentor after all, so I should at least have some idea of ​​what's going on. I can't always have to find out about your research progress from other people."

"Okay." Qiao Bai thought about it and realized it made sense, so he agreed to Zhou Xinran's words: "I'll definitely do it next time!"

……

Final exam week for first-year students majoring in Pet Evolution at Qingniao University is finally over.

I took 14 exams in seven days.

From "The Basic Theory of Extraordinary Life" to "The Evolutionary History of Extraordinary Life" and then to "Extraordinary Life and Human Change"... and so on.

A series of basic theoretical knowledge is then introduced in elective courses.

Sometimes there are three exams a day, and sometimes there is at least one exam a day.

"I'm burnt, I'm burnt to a crisp." As soon as Yan Qing returned to the dormitory, she spread her hands and lay flat on the bed.

Staring blankly at the ceiling, it seemed as if it had been repeatedly torn and ravaged, its soul already in heaven, leaving only an empty shell behind.

"Never mind you, everyone's burnt to a crisp." Zhu Jun, who returned a step later, glanced at the corpse-like figure lying on the bed, plopped down in a chair, and the chair scraped against the floor with a long, piercing groan, but no one cared anymore: "I think I'm going to fail my pet evolution conjecture class today."

Walking in last, Wen Hai heard the words "failed exam" in large letters as soon as he entered: "..."

"If we don't mention those two words, we're still good brothers." Wen Hai pushed up his glasses, almost losing his refined and scholarly demeanor.

Ok.

Under the dazzling lights of exam week, I couldn't hold back any longer.

Final exam week.

Horror!

Not an exaggeration at all!

Forget about the exam.

Why are there still failed courses and retakes?

The thought of failing one of the dozen or so courses and having to retake them next year... makes them feel utterly hopeless. They can just give up and go to their graves.

The three of them were all lounging around, some sprawled out, some lying down, and others spitting out their own saliva, creating a wonderful and harmonious atmosphere in the dormitory.

However, despite being a four-person dormitory, there were only three people in the room.

The reason... those who know, know.

It's all because of that wave of people starting school.

However, Yan Qing, Wen Hai, and Zhu Jun did not expect that the school would handle such matters so swiftly and decisively, issuing punishments and expelling students in one smooth process without any delay.

Fortunately, this incident did not have much impact on the other three roommates.

With one less troublemaker, the atmosphere in the dorm became even more harmonious.

Furthermore, since the dormitories had already been assigned at the beginning of the semester, although one bed in their dormitory was eventually left vacant for various reasons, the school did not arrange for people from other classes or departments to move in, making the vacant space in their dormitory slightly larger than that in other dormitories.

Looking at the empty bed, Yan Qing, who was lying on the bed, turned over and continued to dry the salt on his body.

"Huh? I suddenly remembered something," Yan Qing said, drawing out the words.

"Speak your mind, or leave the court." Zhu Jun said succinctly.

"Where's Qiao Bai?" Yan Qing's question stirred up his two roommates, who hadn't really wanted to talk to him.

Zhu Jun and Wen Hai both looked in Yan Qing's direction at the same time.

Upon seeing this, Yan Qing revealed a smug smile.

Hey!

He knows it!

No one can resist the power of gossip!

Neither a burly, imposing dorm leader nor a hypocritical, good-for-nothing roommate will do!

"So, you're saying that no one has seen Qiao Bai these past few days, no matter which exam room they're in, right?" Yan Qing, who had been fidgeting for a while, finally sat up straight under the influence of gossip, a mysterious smile on her face, and started gossiping with her two roommates: "Why do you think that is?"

"Maybe... he's exempt from the exam?" A hint of uncertainty appeared on Zhu Jun's rugged face as he spoke with a touch of hesitation.

"Impossible." Before Yan Qing could speak, Wen Hai was the first to object. He pushed up his glasses, looking extremely serious: "Qiao Bai is exempt from classes for the entire semester, provided that he gets an excellent grade in every subject on the final exam."

"Bluebird University accepts geniuses for their individuality, but that doesn't mean they'll let them do whatever they want."

Does being a genius mean you don't have to attend classes or take exams?

What do people come to this school for?

Yan Qing and Zhu Jun both felt that Wen Hai's words made sense.

"As expected of a scholar, he thinks a lot." Yan Qing gave Wen Hai a thumbs up, acknowledging his words.

Wenhai, who wasn't happy about this at all: "..."

"Use your brains! Don't think your brains are just decorations. You're all educated people, okay?" Wen Hai rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "But the core issue we're discussing still hasn't been answered. Why haven't we seen Qiao Bai?"

Qiao Bai...

When Wenhai heard this name, he felt a complex mix of emotions.

The farce that happened shortly after the start of the school year is still vivid in my mind.

Wen Hai knew in his heart that Qiao Bai hadn't done anything wrong; she was simply being envied. But Wen Hai also felt a little...envious and jealous.

I envy Qiao Bai's talent.

Jealous of Qiao Bai's achievements.

But what makes humans human is that while they have emotions and desires, they can also control them.

Qiao Bai's excellence is undeniable.

Qiao Bai is not a genius whose reputation is merely hyped up, but a true genius with solid achievements.

After his initial envy and jealousy subsided, Wen Hai put those thoughts aside and adjusted his mindset, setting Qiao Bai as his role model and wanting to see if he could catch up with Qiao Bai's pace.

For example... final exams.

Everyone is standing on the same horizontal line.

Even if Qiao Bai doesn't attend classes very often, maybe—maybe if I studied hard, I could surpass Qiao Bai this time?

Although grades don't mean anything or change anything, they can at least offer some solace to one's soul.

Then... I learned that Qiao Bai probably, maybe, possibly didn't even attend the final exam.

Wen Hai: "?"

"Maybe it's because Qiao Bai is a special case, so the teachers prepared a separate exam room for him?" Yan Qing, who had interacted with Qiao Bai many times—ranking among the top three in the class—stroked his chin and said with a speculative look, "Hmm... to prevent Qiao Bai from cheating? The teachers want to test Qiao Bai's true abilities?"

"That makes sense." Zhu Jun nodded in agreement.

Although Wen Hai didn't say anything, he more or less agreed with this statement.

Until the last day before the holiday.

They were all getting ready to go home for the holidays, and before leaving, they casually refreshed the school's official website.

then……

"Wait? What the hell is this?!" Yan Qing's terrified scream pierced through the entire dormitory and even reached the next dormitory.

"What the hell are you yelling about?!" someone shouted from next door.

Meanwhile, the three people in the dormitory were all staring intently at Yan Qing's computer, having no time to apologize to their roommates or argue with them.

They stared blankly at the photo of Qiao Bai that had just been released on the official website, which was no more than two minutes old, and the announcement below about awarding Qiao Bai the title and position of honorary professor.

You look at me, I look at you, and then I look at him.

The three people exchanged glances, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

No?

What did they see?

"Are you sure... today isn't April Fool's Day?" It's January, but they feel like it's already April.

Otherwise, why would they see such an outrageous notice on the school's official website, which is not much different from a prank message?

Yan Qing scrolled through the notification, which contained only a few hundred words and definitely no more than a thousand, word by word.

"Why do I feel like... I can't understand my mother tongue anymore?" Yan Qing's voice was dazed, as if her body was floating in mid-air, with one foot deep and the other shallow, unable to find the bottom.

Wen Hai and Zhu Jun, who had read through the message together with Yan Qing, also showed similar, dreamlike expressions.

"That's right, I feel the same way you do right now." Wen Hai looked at the computer screen as if he were watching an alien invasion, a planetary explosion, or an attack by a horde of beasts... In short, he was in a state of complete brainstorming.

Otherwise, what would it mean to say, "Because Qiao Bai has researched three new evolutionary routes for extraordinary creatures, and after careful consideration and a comprehensive assessment of Qiao Bai's abilities, Qiao Bai is hereby awarded the title of Honorary Professor of Qingniao University?"

This single line of text contains an immense amount of energy.

"Three new evolutionary paths for extraordinary creatures..." Wen Hai stared at the words, then continued staring at them, his voice light and airy as he said, "Why do I feel like I can't quite understand these words anymore?"

Otherwise, what does this mean?

In just this semester, Qiao Bai has researched three new evolutionary paths for pet beasts.

Are you kidding me?!

Do you really think researching pet evolution is as easy as buying a head of cabbage on the street?

This is a serious matter that requires a lot of time to research and verify, and is very likely to fail in the end!

But then look at Qiao Bai...

Wenhai felt his mind was in a mess.

Amidst the chaos, a sliver of clarity suddenly emerged: "So, the reason Qiao Bai didn't attend the final exam is because..."

Wenhai didn't say what he meant next, but the other two in the dormitory were very understanding and understood his unspoken meaning.

Oh.

Why didn't I see Qiao Bai in the classroom during exam week?

Is it because of backdoor dealings?

No, no!

Because Qiao Bai transformed himself from a student like them into an honorary professor at the school!

Wen Hai, who had initially wanted to follow in Qiao Bai's footsteps and try to compete with him, completely abandoned that idea at this moment.

I'm not competing anymore.

There's absolutely no need to compete.

There's a saying, isn't there?

When someone is only slightly better than you, you will envy them, be jealous of them, slander them, and want to replace them.

But when this person is far more outstanding than you, so outstanding that you can only look up to them—great, all those messy thoughts of envy, jealousy, and hatred disappear completely.

The two of them are not even in the same league!

While he was still thinking about comparing his achievements with Qiao Bai, Qiao Bai's own achievements had already reached a new level.

They might not be able to catch up even if they rode a dragon.

What is there to be envious or jealous of?

Go to sleep.

You should look more at your peers... Oh, Qiao Bai is also my peer.

Then you should look at other people your age besides Qiao Bai.

The students in the next dormitory hadn't received an apology from Yan Qing, Zhu Jun, and Wen Hai, so they rolled up their sleeves and prepared to have a civilized exchange with them.

Then I saw three people gathered in front of the computer.

The hot-blooded young man in the next dorm room suddenly had a lapse in judgment, his mind turning dirty. A lewd smile spread across his face: "Hehehe, what good stuff is it? Show me some, bro! I'll let bygones be bygones!"

Yan Qing and the other two: "..."

However, they did not refuse the other's attempt to come closer and take a look.

Wen Hai and Zhu Jun, who were standing behind Yan Qing, kindly made room for her.

And so, a new victim of eating lemons was born.

Holy crap!

This is not an isolated case.

Similar sounds echoed throughout the dormitory.

If you didn't know better, you'd think they were playing some kind of relay screaming game.

Qiao Bai's remarkable achievements spread throughout the first-year students majoring in pet evolution at Qingniao University in just a few hours, and showed signs of spreading to second-year, third-year, fourth-year students and other majors.

The first reaction of people from other majors who weren't very familiar with Qiao Bai upon hearing this news was: "?"

Are you sure this isn't a joke?

Where did this outrageous news come from?

take a look.

Oh.

The official website of Qingniao University... Holy crap! The official website!

That can't possibly be fake!

Since the last time the official website of Qingniao University was almost overwhelmed by the surge in page views due to photos of Mr. Huo and the Yargen Dragon King, it has undergone upgrades and reinforcement.

But before the semester was even over, the school's official website received another surge in visitors.

The number of views is no less than that of the last time Mr. Huo's photos attracted, and it is showing a gradual increasing trend.

The staff who could have been on holiday, but were pulled back to work on the school's official website: "?"

No?

Doesn't anyone have to take a holiday?

well.

It's precisely because it's a holiday that so many people have the time to pay more attention to this matter.

hateful!

They're going to have a holiday too!

If all else fails... just leave the school's official website as it is!

Anyway, it's not a big problem!

……

Beaver University.

"Tsk... The higher you go, the harder it is to increase your combat power. How did Qiao Bai manage to do that?" Su Fang sat on the edge of the pool, splashing water with his feet, sighed, and a faint melancholy clouded his face.

Ever since he was knocked off the top spot on the power ranking by a freshman named Qiao Bai.

Su Fang has never given up on training and raising his pets.

From the Ice Mandarin Duck to the Longfin Sea Demon, and then to the Two-Headed Jade Entwined and the Colorful Patterned Qilin Fish, Su Fang did not let go of any pet beast that could become stronger. However, among these four pet beasts, the Ice Mandarin Duck still progressed the fastest.

Even so.

After nearly two months of training, Su Fang barely managed to improve his ranking on the combat power list from 93125 to 99862 by the end of the year, a jump of 6737 combat power points. This increase was comparable to the combined combat power of one or two new pets.

This growth was truly remarkable before Qiao Bai made the list.

But now... with Qiao Baizhu's excellent example before us, Su Fang's little increase in combat power is hardly noticed by anyone.

It's not that there's none at all.

More often than not, they simply don't care.

After all, no matter how much Su Fang increases his combat power, it's still hovering around five digits.

Qiao Bai, who was ranked number one, easily broke through the six-figure mark and soared to a combat power of 11.

To this day, Su Fang still doesn't know how Qiao Bai did it.

Or perhaps...

Is this really something that college students are capable of doing?

Be puzzled.

Just as Su Fang was considering whether to contact Qiao Bai privately to see if they could have a friendly exchange, a call came from someone she disliked.

hang up.

Sounded.

hang up.

It started playing again.

After hanging up three times, Su Fang saw that the other party was still persistently calling back, so she finally answered the call.

"Hurry up and release it, or I'll hang up," Su Fang said succinctly and forcefully.

"Have you seen Qiao Bai's latest news?" Fan Dongyang's voice came from the phone.

Su Fang said expressionlessly, "Qiao Bai has been researching the evolution of pet beasts lately? You're making it sound like nobody knows."

They specifically refer to the top ten on the combat power ranking. After Qiao Bai surged to the top of the combat power ranking, they all paid more or less attention to Qiao Bai, wanting to see what he would do next.

Looking for someone to play against?

Or should we go to that forbidden place for some real combat experience?

Or perhaps you could try challenging other lists?

If it's the last one, maybe they'll even bother to watch.

However.

Qiao Bai demonstrated to them through his actions that they were all wrong.

After finishing the battle power rankings, Qiao Bai seemed uninterested in the other rankings, or perhaps they simply didn't appeal to him. He dusted himself off and turned to research pet evolution.

The beast tamers who were originally ranked in the top ten of the combat power list and were currently paying attention to Qiao Bai were all confused.

No?

that is.

Doesn't something seem a little off?

But thinking about Qiao Bai's original major... well, it doesn't seem to be a big problem?

A group of beast tamers, shocked and bewildered, their bewilderment mixed with a touch of curiosity, continued to follow Qiao Bai's movements.

Then, to my surprise, I discovered...

Qiao Bai didn't simply pat his behind and run off to study pet evolution.

In less than a week, news of the NY City Joe White Research Institute being blown up by a giant supernatural creature reached their ears.

The top ten beast tamers have once again raised questions.

In fact.

If someone types a question mark.

Then it might be their own problem.

However, if many people type a question mark together, then the problem lies with the person who prompted them to type the question mark.

In less than a week.

A new evolved form has appeared in Qiao Bai's research institute. Based on its appearance as reported in the news, it is suspected to be a supernatural creature that is a new evolved form of the Violent Giant Bear... The word "shock" is not enough to describe their feelings.

Although they are beast tamers, their daily lives consist of fighting, fighting, and more fighting, and they have not had in-depth knowledge of pet evolution research.

However, since the evolution of pets is also closely related to them in another aspect, they have paid more or less attention to it, and naturally know how difficult it is to study a new evolutionary path for an extraordinary creature.

But why does it seem as simple as drinking water to Qiao Bai?

After the initial shock came a new wave of calm and tranquility.

Yep.

As a professor of pet evolution, Qiao Bai is so amazing in pet combat, which is unrelated to him. It doesn't seem strange that he is even more amazing in pet evolution research, which is his main job, right?

No wonder it's so strange!

The beast tamers could only console themselves with this thought.

What else can we do?

Cold dish.

"If that's all you have to say, I'm hanging up." With that, Su Fang prepared to hang up.

"Why are you in such a hurry? You have no patience at all." Fan Songyang clicked his tongue, his tone suggesting he couldn't do anything with Su Fang: "Fine, fine, I'll tell you now."

"Qiao Bai became an honorary professor at Qingniao University."

Before Su Fang could even get angry at Fan Dongyang's attitude, he silently typed out yet another question mark because of the news Fan Dongyang had revealed.

"...Honorary...Professor?" When these four words came out of his mouth, they carried an indescribable strangeness. For a moment, Su Fang felt as if he had forgotten how to speak.

"That's right, he's an honorary professor, an honorary professor of pet evolution research." Even through the phone, Su Fang could hear the weariness and emotion in Fan Dongyang's voice, which was very rare in Su Fang's memory.

Fan Dongyang had no idea what Su Fang was thinking. Listening to the quiet breathing on the other end of the phone, Fan Dongyang held the phone in one hand and stroked his chin with the other, saying in a somewhat curious tone, "I don't want to discuss or comment on Qiao Bai's professional abilities anymore."

I was simply shocked.

He was so shocked that he was almost numb to the mere mention of Qiao Bai's name.

"I'm just curious about one thing—do you think Qiao Bai can still participate in the university leagues in South China?"

Upon hearing this, Su Fang was taken aback for a moment, and was about to say why it was impossible, when she quickly realized what she meant.

That's right!

The leagues held by major universities in South China only accept current university students; graduate students and doctoral students are not eligible.

How should we calculate Qiao Bai's honorary professorship?

Can I participate or not?

When Qiao Bai was competing for the top spots, he was definitely a freshman.

But in less than a semester, Qiao Bai became an honorary professor at Qingniao University.

Whether Qiao Bai can participate in the league... has suddenly become mysterious and unpredictable!

……

Qiao Bai himself hadn't thought of this yet.

No one around him had thought of this yet.

Qiao Bai was being bombarded by his friends, including Qi Yue, Lin Weiwei and Li Gan from Jinyang University, which was far away, as well as several classmates and friends from Qingniao University. The closest ones were Huo Xiaotian and Zou Tang, who were sitting in front of him.

In the cafeteria.

It's not mealtime yet, so there aren't many people here.

Qiao Bai sat in a spot that was completely blocked by a large pillar. Unless you walked up to him and looked closely, you couldn't see Qiao Bai's face clearly.

It is quite safe.

"I feel like I can't go on living in this cruel and heartless world." Huo Xiaotian slumped on the table, looking utterly listless, his phone lying beside him, his voice muffled by his elbow.

"After my grandpa heard about what happened to you, Brother Qiao, he called me immediately and bragged about you for half an hour. Then he started to nag me like crazy." As he spoke, Huo Xiaotian turned his head and gave Qiao Bai a resentful look while leaning on the table.

difficult.

It is too difficult.

Considering how outstanding Huo Xiaotian is.

However, they still have to accept the pressure from their parents to raise their children to be "tiger parents."

It's still a case of "tiger parenting" (both types of parenting that involve intense academic pressure and parenting skills).

Just thinking about it made Huo Xiaotian's face contort with pain.

Before Qiao Bai could even speak, Zou Tang rolled his eyes at Huo Xiaotian: "What's that?"

"Grandpa Huo and Uncle Huo will at most express their expectations and hopes for you. After all, your major and Qiao Bai's major are quite different. It's like being in a completely different world." Zou Tang took out his phone and showed it to Huo Xiaotian, then turned it off, leaving the screen black.

"I don't even want to turn it on right now."

"As long as I dare to turn on my phone, the Zou family will call or text me non-stop for twelve hours a day, giving me nothing but pep talks and constantly trying to get my attention." Zou Tang rolled his eyes to the sky as he spoke: "There's even some brilliant guy who doesn't know where he came from, who wants me to get close to Qiao Bai as a classmate, and see if I can find out any secrets about Brother Qiao or the secrets to how amazing Qiao Bai is."

"You want me to use my femininity?"

"I:???"

"Are you alright? Are you really alright? If you're alright, go home and take care of your kids and figure things out for yourself! What era are we living in? Can't you put some normal stuff in your head?!" When he got excited, Zou Tang slammed his hands on the table, his voice almost reaching the ceiling.

The few people scattered around cast curious glances in that direction.

Fortunately, there was a large pillar blocking the view, and no one saw Qiao Bai.

All they could see were Zou Tang and Huo Xiaotian sitting opposite each other, their expressions ranging from excited to dejected, so they quickly looked away, not very interested.

"Hahaha!" Huo Xiaotian, who had been slumped over, couldn't help but sit up straight, slapping the table and letting out a startling laugh: "Wow, my sister! Your family's imagination is way more boundless than both my grandpa's and my dad's!"

Grandpa Huo wanted Huo Xiaotian to improve further.

Huo Batian, as a father, is more focused on pushing himself than his child. At most, he'll nag Huo Xiaotian a couple of times, telling him to work harder and try to surpass Qiao Bai. If he can't, it doesn't matter; he, as his father, will definitely be able to!

The pressure stemmed from these two nagging words, which annoyed Huo Xiaotian to no end.

There is no harm without comparison.

After listening to Zou Tang's story, Huo Xiaotian suddenly felt that his grandfather and his own father were really great!

OK OK.

That's it.

Keep it up.

Zou Tang, who understood Huo Xiaotian's gaze, practically rolled his eyes to the heavens.

angry.

very angry.

"Hmph, a honey trap, huh? Even if you really wanted to, Qiao Bai wouldn't fall for it." Huo Xiaotian, completely oblivious to the concept of restraint, insisted on adding fuel to the fire, even dragging Qiao Bai, who hadn't wanted to join the discussion and just wanted to be a bystander, into it: "Brother Qiao, don't you think so!"

Qiao Bai: "..."

"I think it's good that you're all happy." Qiao Bai calmly picked up the lemonade on the table and covered his mouth with it, blinking his eyes as if he was too busy to speak.

Huo Xiaotian and Zou Tang, who were brushed off by Qiao Bai, were speechless.

Fine.

Ignoring Qiao Bai again, the two started arguing back and forth.

Qiao Bai, with a straw in his mouth, listened to the two arguing while his mind wandered through a variety of thoughts.

Qiao Bai was somewhat surprised by his promotion to honorary professor.

It's not about being surprised and thinking you're unworthy.

Rather, it's because... neither the violent giant bear nor the evolutionary paths of Miss Flying Flower and Miss Wood Spirit can be promoted or verified; they are all one-off deals.

It can be said to be his research achievement.

It could also be described as a coincidence.

Previously, Qiao Bai's achievements had been temporarily obscured due to the difficulty of verification on more than one occasion.

Or, upon receiving the above message, clearly tell him that he needs to wait a little longer.

This time, however, it's different.

Whether it's special treatment, rewards, or anything else, it all comes very quickly.

Qiao Bai: "?"

After leaving Zhou Xinran's office, Qiao Bai made another phone call to Huang Zhou.

Unlike Zhou Xinran's claim that she couldn't get through, Qiao Bai easily and smoothly dialed Huang Zhou's number, just like before, and exchanged a few words with him.

Everything seems to be normal.

Hmm... Qiao Bai thought for a long time and finally decided to put this matter aside for the time being.

From any perspective, everything is beneficial to him now. The environment is mild, and the people around him are nice. The only thing that Qiao Bai is constantly on guard about is that his cheat ability cannot be exposed. Everything else is not a big deal.

The most important thing right now is how to continue becoming stronger.

Becoming stronger is the most important thing.

……

Huang Zhou looked dazed when he left Xingcheng.

You can't blame him.

It's really... generous. When the government and the country really join forces to do something, they are incredibly generous.

"From now on, no matter what topic Professor Qiao Bai wants to research, or how many precious resources and materials he needs, there will be no restrictions. The alliance and the government can provide them indefinitely, with no upper limit." As the highest-ranking person in charge of the alliance, Elder Feng conveyed their message to Huang Zhou.

Old Feng's eyes remained closed, but when he faced Huangzhou, Huangzhou could clearly feel that every thought in his heart was being exposed to Old Feng's gaze.

"Of course, we will make this seem reasonable on the surface. Headquarters will allocate these resources directly to the NY City Beast Taming Alliance, and then you will distribute them."

Huang Zhou tried to control himself, but he simply couldn't contain the joy on his face.

What is this?

This is the rhythm of NY City taking off along with Qiao Bai!

For the first time, Huang Zhou truly felt how amazing it was to have a genius emerge in his city.

Taking off from the spot along with them wouldn't be a big deal.

Given Qiao Bai's situation, Huang Zhou really wants to treat Qiao Bai like a mascot or a golden statuette in NY City, the kind of person who'd be worshipped.

Ideally, one should burn three incense sticks every day.

Fortunately, reason told Huang Zhou, "Cough cough, I can't do that."

That's an exaggeration.

That's good enough.

But those who should be happy are still happy.

Huang Zhou arrived in Xingcheng full of doubts, and then returned to NY City with great enthusiasm and excitement.

Sitting on the plane, looking down at the small, seemingly not-so-famous city of New York, Huang Zhou was filled with an excitement he couldn't share with anyone else.

NYC will be great starting with Joe Biden!

……

"Achoo!"

Qiao Bai, who was listening to Huo Xiaotian and Zou Tang's battle, suddenly sneezed.

Huo Xiaotian and Zou Tang immediately stopped arguing and looked in Qiao Bai's direction at the same time: "Yeah, someone must be talking about Brother Qiao."

"I guess it's someone or something quite important? Otherwise, Brother Qiao would be sneezing all day long," Zou Tang said seriously.

"You're right." At this moment, Huo Xiaotian stopped arguing with Zou Tang. He gave a thumbs up, looking very much in agreement and support for Zou Tang.

Qiao Bai, who suddenly became the bridge for friendly communication between the two, was speechless.

"You've complained to me enough, now go back to your own homes and your own mothers?" Qiao Bai said, putting down the lemonade he had finished drinking, the straw of which he had bitten flat.

Just then.

Huo Xiaotian squeezed and squeezed closer to Qiao Bai: "Brother Qiao, um... my grandpa said he'd like to invite you to his house for Chinese New Year this year, do you think you could agree..."

"After all, he really wants to thank you!" Huo Xiaotian said, blinking his pitiful eyes at Qiao Bai, "If you don't agree, I won't be able to explain it to my old man!"

Zou Tang, standing to the side: "!"

Good guy!

treacherous!

cunning!

mean!

Why didn't she think of inviting Qiao Bai home for the New Year?

More than one person knows that Qiao Bai is an orphan.

Qiao Bai's friends, those who pay attention to Qiao Bai, all know that Qiao Bai is an orphan, but no one mentions it in daily life, there is no need to.

Qiao Bai's excellence is evident to all.

Whether Qiao Bai is an orphan or not has no impact on his excellence.

At most, it's during holidays when others miss their loved ones even more, but Qiao Bai's place is a bit too deserted.

Inviting Qiao Bai home for the New Year is easy, but it's not something you can just casually bring up.

Thinking of this, Zou Tang couldn't help but give Huo Xiaotian a despicable look again.

hateful!

Because of what happened between Old Master Huo and Altron, the Huo family does indeed owe Qiao Bai a favor, and a very big one at that.

Huo Xiaotian used this excuse to invite Qiao Bai to the Huo family for the New Year. Not only did it not cause any problems, but it also made him seem closer to Qiao Bai!

Zou Tang was already considering whether he should shamelessly go along with Qiao Bai if Qiao Bai really agreed.

Anyway, she didn't really want to go back to the Zou family.

Apart from the old man, everyone else always manages to say things that are beyond the comprehension of normal people.

"Let's skip it this year. I've already decided where I want to go for the New Year." Unexpectedly, Qiao Bai smiled and shook her head, declining Huo Xiaotian's invitation.
