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

Chapter 17 Please Be My Student

Lin Weiwei pursed her pink lips, lowered her head and smiled shyly.

But... Qiao Bai wouldn't lie to her!

Qiao Bai saved Mimi; he's a really good person!

Qi Yue, who immediately understood what Lin Weiwei was thinking, rolled her eyes.

"snort!"

"I won't give up like this!"

Qi Yue carried the little fox into the grooming shop and waved her hand, "Give me my little fox a full makeover, make it look its best!"

Once the little fox regained her beauty.

She's going to fight Qiao Bai again!

……

"Achoo—!"

Qiao Bai sneezed loudly, startling the little black dog perched on his shoulder, which jumped up and down several times.

"It's alright, it's alright," Qiao Bai quickly reassured Xiao Wu.

Seeing that Xiao Wu was still hopping around with its feet burning hot, he took out Xiao Wu's food.

"Alright, alright, I'll give you an extra meal, okay?"

Little Wu raised its head, its tender yellow beak already eagerly pecking at Qiao Bai's fingers.

It was as if they were urging Qiao Bai on.

Faster, faster!

Qiao Bai chuckled and fed the red mud worms to Xiao Wu, who ate them with great relish, one bite after another.

Then comes the mixed fresh fruit.

Little Wu can eat a piece in three or four bites.

After a couple of bites of red mud worms and a couple of bites of mixed fresh fruit, Xiao Wu was delighted.

Seeing Xiao Wu eating so heartily, Qiao Bai's mouth also began to water involuntarily.

He looked at the red mud worms and mixed fresh fruit in his hand.

ponder for a moment.

Ok.

He admitted that he was just curious!

Which pet owner hasn't tasted their own cat's or dog's food?

Qiao Bai picked up a piece of mixed fresh fruit and ate half of it in one bite.

good to eat!

Qiao Bai opened his eyes wide and finished the remaining half in his hand.

then.

Qiao Bai looked down and saw Xiao Wu's shocked gaze.

Little Wu: (ΩДΩ)

Her tiny, pale yellow mouth was so shocked it couldn't even close!

"Ahem!" Qiao Bai, feeling guilty, coughed lightly twice, his earlobes turning slightly red.

Humans cannot, or at least should not.

"Next time we have a holiday and go to the city, I'll buy you fresh fruit, okay?"

Qiao Bai gently comforted Xiao Wu.

To Qiao Bai's surprise, Xiao Wu's expression became complicated after hearing his words.

then.

Little Crow raised its wings and pushed the red mud worms and mixed fresh fruit toward Qiao Bai.

The tiny wings flapped against Qiao Bai's hand.

Qiao Bai, who suddenly understood what Xiao Wu meant, was speechless.

Did Xiao Wu think he was so poor that he had to steal food from his pet?

Qiao Bai, realizing that the food he ate was indeed not as good as Xiao Wu's, fell silent.

kindness……

Making money is now on our agenda!

Otherwise, Xiao Wu would really think he was a poor wretch who could only mooch food off pets!

Qiao Bai tried his best... and tried his best until he got home from get off work, but he still couldn't change Xiao Wu's mind.

I have no idea what's going on in Xiao Wu's little head.

Qiao Bai sighed.

"Never mind, there's still plenty of time, let's take it slow." Qiao Bai reached out and gently tapped the little bird's feather, which resembled a cowlick, a few times.

get off work.

Pick up the package.

Come back home.

Because Xiao Wu needs to bask in the sunlight and moonlight, Qiao Bai doesn't plan to frequently take Xiao Wu back to the Beast Taming Space.

Go home and have dinner.

Seeing that Qiao Bai had eaten quite a bit, Xiao Wu finally stopped trying to feed him every now and then.

Qiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Come on, the daily necessities I bought for you last night have arrived. Unpack them today and you can use them." Qiao Bai sat on the floor and started unpacking the package with Xiao Wu.

Bird-specific pet shampoo, bird-specific pet furniture... miscellaneous items, not many, scattered all over the place.

Just as Qiao Bai was about to give Xiao Wu another good bath, his phone rang.

"kindness?"

Qiao Bai glanced at him with some surprise.

It was a message from Zhou Xinran.

[Zhou Xinran: I heard you contracted a mutated Chinese bird? What were you thinking?]

[Qiao Bai: I just wanted to give it a try. Professor Zhou, how's your research progressing?]

Not really wanting to express his thoughts, Qiao Bai decisively changed the subject.

as predicted.

[Zhou Xinran: Tsk! Why bring up something I shouldn't have! You must have guessed my progress wasn't going well, right? I didn't expect that even knowing the evolutionary prerequisites for Honeybugs, replicating their evolution would be this difficult!]

Speaking of professional issues.

Zhou Xinran immediately became more talkative.

Qiao Bai chuckled.

you do not say!

Even before he knew the League's rating of Fairy Butterfly, Qiao Bai had already figured out the key to the problem.

The Alliance has assigned the Fairy Butterfly a grade of [Low-level Extraordinary High-tier].

The distinction between low-level and intermediate-level extraordinary abilities is a threshold.

The honeybee's ability to multiply rapidly, with hundreds or even thousands of offspring in a single nest, to the point of becoming a plague in the spring, prevented the fairy butterfly from crossing this threshold in terms of quality.

However, Qiao Bai's innate skill grants the Fairy Butterfly a grade of [Intermediate-level, Low-grade Transcendent].

Why?

The determination of innate skills is not subject to human intervention, which makes it more rational in all aspects.

Wherein lies the difference?

Qiao Bai figured it out that very night.

Honeybees are so numerous they're practically exploding.

However, the number of bold honeybees that do not attempt suicide is very small.

The woods in Yanglin Village are teeming with honey bugs.

It's no exaggeration to say there are three or four on one tree.

Birds can eat honey worms as their main meal.

So many honey bugs.

Qiao Bai couldn't find a single honey bug that met the evolutionary requirements.

Zhou Xinran wants to replicate the evolution of the Honeybug?

[Qiao Bai: A bold honey bug is a rare find. If all else fails, Professor Zhou should broaden the search area. Or perhaps we could look for Weiwei and see if there are any beast tamers who highly value honey bugs. Maybe an ordinary person could also work?]

[Zhou Xinran: Hmm... Beast tamers won't work. I tried several beast tamers who had contracted with honey bugs, but they all failed. Ordinary people raising honey bugs? I really hadn't thought of that. You've given me a good idea; I'll have Lao Huang and the others look into it again.]

[Qiao Bai: I'm glad I could help Professor Zhou.]

Zhou Xinran: Hmph! Don't give me that official talk. Tell me, what were you thinking when you made a contract with that Hua bird? I specifically asked about it, and the Hua bird's mutation is going in the wrong direction.

Although we're not that close, I can tell you're a thoughtful young man; you definitely wouldn't just casually tame a Chinese bird.

Qiao Bai was somewhat surprised.

Is Professor Zhou really that concerned about him?

They even contacted the China Bird Breeding Base to inquire about the situation.

Seeing that he couldn't fool them.

Qiao Bai thought for a moment, then, connecting it to what happened during the day, said...

Qiao Bai: Ah... then I won't hide it from you, Professor Zhou. I'm interested in the field of pet evolution. I've only read related books and papers before, but the evolution of honeybugs has piqued my interest even more.

I chose this Chinese bird because I believe its mutation might be heading towards an unknown evolutionary path. I wanted to give it a try.

[Zhou Xinran: You have ambition, I support you. But have you considered the consequences of failure?]

[Qiao Bai: Yes. If the evolution fails, so be it. I can still get into the major I want based on my grades. I can accept the consequences of failure. But if I succeed...]

[Zhou Xinran: If you succeed, you'll ascend to immortality on the spot! I might even be begging you to be my student.]

[Zhou Xinran: Okay, then I look forward to seeing results from your research. Maybe newcomers to this research field just have a bit more luck?]

Qiao Bai smiled slightly.

Risks and opportunities coexist.

He conveniently gave Zhou Xinran a clear answer.

This laid the groundwork for what he wanted to do next.

Before Xiao Wu evolves, it's not strange that he also helps other extraordinary creatures evolve, is it?

……

Three or four days passed in a row.

Qiao Bai and Xiao Wu's tacit understanding and affection have increased significantly.

He could also feel the expansion of his mental sea brought about by meditation.

Although it was only a tiny bit.

But that's already incredibly impressive!

Cultivating one's spiritual sea is inherently a long process.

Qiao Bai was quite skeptical that the ability to achieve results in such a short time was due to the advantage brought about by the superposition of soul power after transmigrating.

The only thing that gave Qiao Bai a headache was...

He hasn't found a suitable fire-attribute pet to use for skill extraction yet.

"As one of the most offensive fire-attribute pets, it should be quite common among aspiring beast tamers, right?"

Why can't he meet someone?

It's because Yanglin Village is too remote.

If that doesn't work... how about that little fire fox?
