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

Chapter 26 The Lucky Period for Newbies

"But what about the evolution of the little fire fox he mentioned earlier?"

Qiao Bai skipped over the complicated emotional issues and went straight to the point.

Qi Yue: "Uh..."

Her expression was somewhat embarrassed.

"This is not..."

"I found it strange from the beginning." Qiao Bai ignored Qi Yue's hesitation and continued, "Your excessive trust in my ability to evolve the little fire fox is abnormal and illogical."

This made Qiao Baizhen wonder if his talent had been discovered.

But today I ran into this.

Qiao Bai's doubts instantly found a reasonable explanation.

Qi Yue didn't believe him at all.

It's simply an excuse to get rid of someone surnamed Sun.

"Ahem!" Seeing that Qiao Bai had guessed what she had done, Qi Yue touched her nose embarrassedly and said awkwardly.

"I... I really had no other choice, that guy Sun Ze is just too annoying!"

As she spoke, Qi Yue's expression gradually became more self-righteous.

She did nothing wrong; it was all Sun Ze's fault!

However, when facing Qiao Bai, Qi Yue still explained earnestly and sincerely: "His parents are both professors at the research institute, specializing in the evolution of Little Fire Fox and Crimson Flame Dog. My parents and his parents have a good relationship. So I made a contract with Fox, and he made a contract with Crimson Flame Dog."

Qiao Bai nodded upon hearing this.

From a biological perspective, both the Fiery Fox and the Crimson Hound belong to the Canidae family.

Their attributes are all fire.

They belong to the same tier in terms of grade and potential.

Studying them together to explore new evolutionary paths is a good approach.

"My fox will choose to evolve into a little fire fox, partly due to its parents' influence." Qi Yue frowned, clearly unhappy about this.

Qiao Bai can understand.

Now I understand why the little fire fox ate so many high-level materials.

Even if Qi Yue has so much money she could burn it, this isn't the way to use it; her parents must have invested in it.

The fox is of good quality and will evolve into a little fire fox. If Sun Ze's parents really find a new evolutionary path for the little fire fox, they will need to select other beast tamers' little fire foxes for confirmation experiments. Qi Yue, who has a contract with the little fire fox, can get a back door.

Even if nothing is found, contracting a little fire fox is still a worthwhile investment.

"Sun Ze has contracted with the Crimson Flame Hound," Qiao Bai said with certainty.

Qi Yue: "Mm."

"Anyway, that's the thing. I don't like associating with Sun Gou, and he keeps bothering me with the Little Fire Fox evolution thing. Because of my parents, I can't just make up some excuse to fool Sun Gou."

It's really annoying.

Qiao Bai suddenly realized that being alone wasn't so bad; being a kept man wasn't as easy as he had imagined.

"Then, coincidentally, the evolution of the Vivi Honey Insect happened..." At this point, Qi Yue glanced at Qiao Bai sheepishly.

Needless to say, those who know, know.

Qiao Bai was targeted by Qi Yue.

It would be a lie to say that Qi Yue trusted Qiao Bai to make the little fire fox evolve, but she was more than happy to use this excuse to get rid of Sun Ze's entanglement for a while.

Qiao Bai was helpless. He could understand, but wasn't it a bit much to use him as a pretext?

Qiao Bai thought this way, and he said this way.

Qi Yue clasped her hands together in front of her chest, a fluffy little fire fox on her head. The two, one human and one fox, looked at Qiao Bai with similar watery, peach-blossom eyes, pleading pitifully: "Please forgive me this time, okay? I promise I won't do it again~"

Her drawn-out voice carried an unspeakable sense of grievance.

"Waaah~ Waaah~" The little fox imitated her.

Qiao Bai: "..."

"I didn't say anything to you."

What can we do?

The young lady has already apologized, and since it didn't have much impact on Qiao Bai, he can't possibly hold onto this matter.

"Once the psychological compensation is paid, this matter will be over," Qiao Bai said casually.

Qi Yue, who was about to break into a smug smile, was speechless.

She stared at Qiao Bai with wide, shocked eyes: "You! I've already apologized, and you're still asking me for money?! Have all the friendship we've built up these past few days gone to waste?!"

Qiao Bai said righteously and sternly: "Even close brothers should keep clear accounts. Friendship is friendship, and compensation is compensation. Only in this way can we truly avoid damaging our friendship."

Qi Yue was so angry she almost rolled her eyes.

Lin Weiwei couldn't help but chuckle softly beside her, "Qiao Bai is really amazing. It's rare to see Xiaoyue looking so defeated."

Qi Yue held the little fire fox and whimpered softly.

"So what are your plans for the Little Fox's evolution next?" After playing around for a while, Qiao Bai changed the subject and asked, "According to him, it seems there's been new progress in the Little Fox's evolution."

Qiao Bai was quite interested in the couple Qi Yue mentioned who specialized in the evolution of the little fire fox and the red flame dog.

Did they discover the evolutionary path of the [Fire Fox Queen]?

If possible, Qiao Bai would like to discuss with them the research process and the circumstances under which it was discovered.

pity.

He cannot contact him for the time being.

"Your uncle and aunt have been researching the evolution of the Little Fire Fox and the Crimson Hound for six years. For Sun Gou to say this, your uncle and aunt must have made some new discoveries, but they are still quite far from being able to make the Little Fire Fox truly evolve." Qi Yue frowned.

"By the time they actually come up with the new evolved form of Little Fox, it might be another year or two."

What Qi Yue didn't say was that this was under the condition that things were progressing smoothly.

"By the time they start selecting little fire fox tamers and conducting a proper verification phase? I might be almost graduating from university by then." Qi Yue shook her head: "I can't wait that long."

Qiao Bai looked surprised upon hearing this.

kindness?

Does it really take this long to study the evolutionary path of pets?

Qiao Bai had the idea that this was not easy, but he never realized that it would take such a long time to translate it into actual data.

Qi Yue immediately saw through Qiao Bai's thoughts: "That's why I said how lucky you are to have discovered that honeybugs can evolve! If it's confirmed that this isn't a coincidence, and if the evolution method can be widely adopted..."

Qi Yue gave Qiao Bai a knowing look.

"It's a bit of a pity that Professor Zhou was in charge of the paper, so you didn't get the main credit for the final result."

Qiao Bai smiled.

Compared to the results after the paper was published, Qiao Bai cared more about the fact that more beast tamers could learn about the evolution process of the honey bug.

Increased awareness can bring him greater benefits.

"So, my little fire fox, you'd better put in your best effort to help it evolve! Maybe your invincible newbie luck will still be there, and by sheer coincidence, the little fire fox will evolve?" Qi Yue continued to herself, "This credit will be entirely yours, and no one can take it away from you!"

Qiao Bai laughed: "Thank you for your kind words."

What Qi Yue thought before is not important. What is important is that after learning that Sun Ze's parents had indeed made further progress, Qi Yue still found a bunch of excuses to choose him.

Qiao Bai will help Qi Yue's little fire fox evolve properly.

Yep.

He can also better utilize skills.

"In that case, when we get back, we'll help Little Fox get familiar with the skills it has already learned and continue training it with new skills. Little Fox needs to master at least four to five skills to reach an average level."

Qiao Bai smiled, but his words left no room for doubt.

Both Qi Yue and Little Fire Fox were shocked and widened their eyes upon hearing Qiao Bai's words: "No way? How could someone with a 36-degree mouth say such heartless things?"

train?

More training?

Isn't learning a skill in half a month enough?

Qi Yue and Little Fire Fox both felt that they had used up all their energy for the entire summer vacation, and now it was time to relax.

Recalling the mutual torment and battle of wits between the human and the fox over the past two weeks, they both shuddered.

"There's still a month until the end of summer vacation. If you're quick, mastering two new skills shouldn't be difficult. If you work hard, you might even be able to master three," Qiao Bai said coldly, completely oblivious to Qi Yue and the little fire fox's pain.

Qi Yue and the little fire fox shook their heads frantically: "I can't, I really can't! I can't even begin to compete!"

Qiao Bai turned to Lin Weiwei, who was standing to the side: "Weiwei, could you please keep an eye on Qi Yue and Little Fire Fox's training?"

"This is all for their own good. If they don't work hard now, they'll regret it later," Qiao Bai said sincerely, staring into Lin Weiwei's eyes.

The trust that Qi Yue placed in him.

For his grand project of exploiting skills.

Let Qi Yue and Little Fire Fox train together!
