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

Chapter 293 Poaching Talent, also known as the Talent Introduction Program!

"It's good to be confident, it's really good to be confident."

Old Fu turned his head and whispered to Qiao Bai, Lan Fengling, and his youngest son who had come closer, "Oh, by the way, I also prepared some pomelo leaves in your bags, in case anything mysterious happens..."

Seeing Lao Fu's hesitant expression, Qiao Bai also fell into deep thought.

No?

Is Fu Wenxing's luck good or bad?

the other side.

Qiao Bai's research institute.

Not long after Qiao Bai left, Sui Yu received a special email.

"This is..." Sui Yu remembered the account, and when she clicked on it, she subconsciously frowned.

"This guy is really annoying."

Sui Yu thought about what Qiao Bai had said earlier. It was clear that he had no ill intentions towards the brother and sister and had helped them as much as he could.

And those things Qiao Bai specifically told her about...

After thinking for a moment, Sui Yu replied to the emails from the brother and sister.

Immediately afterwards, a phone call reached Chairman Huang.

Huangzhou: "?"

Huang Zhou's eyes still held a hint of doubt when he saw the call from Sui Yu.

Huang Zhou had some impression of the staff at Qiao Bai Research Institute, not to mention Sui Yu, who was specifically responsible for external liaison.

"Is there something you need?" Chairman Huang asked, puzzled.

Logically speaking...

Qiao Bai can handle anything that happens at Qiao Bai Research Institute internally on his own.

If you really need to contact him externally, it's usually Qiao Bai.

This was the first time Sui Yu had ever sought him out.

However, Huangzhou's attitude remained very good.

"President Huang, this is what happened..." Sui Yu quickly and in detail explained the whole story over the phone.

"...I'll probably sleep for a little while."

After saying that, Sui Yu didn't feel there was anything to be angry about.

After all, even if they were angry, they would have calmed down a few days ago.

But Huangzhou is different.

Upon first hearing that someone was planning to use Qiao Bai to create a star, he was so angry that he wanted to rush to Fangshan City right now.

"Your surname is Qu, right?"

"I vaguely remember this guy."

"I knew this guy was no good from the start, but I never expected him to actually bully me now?"

"He really dares to think and act!"

Huang Zhou cursed and swore on the other end of the phone, gritting his teeth.

Sui Yu: "This matter is indeed disgusting, but since we haven't caught him with any real evidence, we can't do anything openly about it."

"However, the brother and sister from the Qu family are the twin stars from Qucheng who were publicized some time ago."

As if afraid that Huangzhou wouldn't remember, Sui Yu even helped him recall the trending topics from a while ago.

Huang Zhou's gaze became increasingly sharp.

"Professor Qiao Bai thinks they have some talent and good personalities." As she spoke, Sui Yu recalled the message the brother and sister had conveyed in their email; they were indeed two good kids.

They have their own difficulties, but they don't want to step on Qiao Bai to become famous. Instead, they try their best to change their predicament through their own efforts.

They even tried to spread the information they had obtained to warn Chopper, hoping that Qiao Bai would be wary of Chairman Qu's actions.

For their age, it's already quite remarkable that they've accomplished all this.

"If possible, Professor Qiao Bai suggests that you try to poach Chairman Qu's men."

This practice has an official name – the talent introduction program.

Huangzhou: "..."

Huangzhou suddenly realized.

"This idea... is pretty good!" Huang Zhou stroked his chin.

Although, but.

The abilities of the Qu siblings are indeed nothing compared to Qiao Bai's talent.

Moreover, due to their own circumstances, they are destined not to become skilled potion makers in the future, but this does not mean that these two children lack talent and ability.

There are countless paths in life.

They are all still young and may show other strengths and advantages in the future.

Just the fact that they make potions that temporarily boost abilities is enough to tempt many city beast-taming alliance leaders.

Huangzhou: You can try it! You can try anything!

Without Qiao Bai's opinions and suggestions, Huang Zhou might not have been so interested. But after Qiao Bai said that, Huang Zhou felt even more that it was worth a try.

Sui Yu added fuel to the fire at this moment: "Just now, the Qu siblings sent me an email. They said that Chairman Qu still hasn't given up on his previous plan."

"This time, we plan to change our approach and continue to criticize and belittle Professor Qiao Bai."

"They also felt very troubled and didn't know what to do."

Children aged sixteen or seventeen.

My parents are still in the hospital.

President Qu is the president of the Beast Taming Alliance. Whenever they want to do something within the territory of Qu City, the other party can notice it immediately.

The fastest and best way is to email Qiao Bai's research institute and tell him what they know.

"Don't worry!" Huang Zhou, who had been fantasizing about poaching President Qu and whose hostility towards him had weakened slightly, instantly became full of fighting spirit again after hearing these words.

What?

You still want to make a move against Qiao Bai?

You've got some nerve, haven't you!

Do they even know how much funding the Beast Taming Alliance in NY City can apply for each year?

I'm afraid it'll scare the other side to death if I tell you!

dig!

We have to dig into this corner!

Moreover, it's not just about poaching talent; we must also teach this old man a lesson he won't forget!

Otherwise, it won't be long before this unreliable idea resurfaces.

"Leave this to me!"

Huang Zhou patted his chest and agreed to the matter.

Sui Yu finally hung up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief.

Yep.

This is the rational use of resources.

Professor Joe White and the city of New York benefit from each other.

"By the time Professor Qiao Bai returns, this matter should be mostly resolved."

Sui Yu smiled, turned around, and entered the research institute.

……

Qiao Bai wasn't entirely unaware of what was happening at the research institute.

Anyway, everything that needed to be arranged has been arranged, so there's no need to worry about it anymore.

With a large backpack on his back and filled with curiosity about dealing with Wen Xing's luck, Qiao Bai officially stepped into the territory of the Red Mill Mountains.

Fu Tianguang somehow ended up next to Qiao Bai.

"Qiao Bai, how's your pet beast's strength now?"

"I've already contracted my second pet, and I'm preparing to contract my third!"

"But my fourth contract slot will be available soon!"

"I wonder if I'll encounter any special pets in this secret realm. If I do, I'll contract one, and beating up that Zhang Hongyi guy when we get back will definitely be no problem..."

Muttering to himself.

Fu Tianguang was like a chatterbox, spilling out all the details of his affair with Zhang Hongyi at Yulong University.

Zhang Hongyi, who wasn't present: ...Thank you so much! You didn't forget to help your brother get noticed even at a time like this!

Qiao Bai listened and nodded.

I didn't feel impatient at all; on the contrary, I found it quite interesting.

It is indeed quite interesting.

Not to mention that Zhang Hongyi and Fu Tianguang could be considered acquaintances of his, Qiao Bai was also quite interested in the outdoor military training and real-world combat courses at Yulong University that Fu Tianguang mentioned.

These are things that Qingniao University doesn't offer.

This was something Qiao Bai hadn't experienced much of.

"That's normal." Lan Fengling moved closer to Qiao Bai's other side and said with great interest, "Many of the courses and assessment methods here are things that very few universities, except for Yulong and Honghu, would do this at the university level!"

"One reason is the students' academic ability, and the other is the unique geographical location and environment of Yulong University and Honghu University."

"Fighting, battling, eliminating, and killing extraordinary creatures is something that every beast tamer from Yulong University and Honghu University must get used to."

Qiao Bai recalled the special location of Xingcheng.

Ok.

It's not surprising at all that everyone is mobilized for military service; in fact, it's quite normal, almost to the point of being abnormal.

"Looking back now, those four years at Hung-Hu University remain the most unforgettable six years of my life!"

Qiao Bai: "?"

"Our Honghu University has its own gap year," Lan Fengling explained, seeing Qiao Bai's puzzled look.

"Every two years, we have to participate in a year-long practical activity, which usually involves going out into the wild to kill monsters and fight extraordinary creatures," Blue Wind Chime said casually.

Qiao Bai really wanted to wipe the sweat off those college student beast tamers.

Fierce and tough.

That's absolutely incredible!

No wonder he's a beast tamer trained by Yulong and Honghu!

Their extracurricular activities are quite different from other schools, which explains why they produce so many skilled beast tamers; they really step up when needed.

Fu Wenxing, who was walking at the front, turned around and noticed...

hmmmm?

Why is there no one around me?

Everyone gathered around Qiao Bai.

Fu Wenxing: "?"

Without giving it a second thought, Fu Wenxing put his hands on his hips and shouted loudly behind him, "Hurry up and catch up! We need to find a suitable place to rest after we get inside!"

"Stop dawdling!"

Before Qiao Bai and his group could even make a move, Fu Tianguang was the first to stand up and sabotage his brother: "What's the rush? It's not like you don't usually procrastinate."

"Oh, no, you're the kind of person who only has a three-minute attention span."

As he spoke, Fu Tianguang's gaze suddenly sharpened as he looked at his brother: "You'd better not start slacking off after you go in, otherwise, if I come back alive, I'll definitely go and complain to Mom!"

Fu Tianguang said very loudly.

Qiao Bai could see that Fu Wenxing paused for a moment.

Qiao Bai: "..."

I have a bad feeling.

What should I do if I suddenly feel like I've boarded an unreliable pirate ship?

"Cold salad."

Qiao Bai almost thought he had spoken his mind. He turned to look at Lan Fengling, who had perfectly finished speaking, and his eyes were full of confusion.

Blue Bell waved to Qiao Bai, her attitude remarkably nonchalant: "When you're with this guy, especially when you're going on adventures together, you have to have this kind of mindset."

"What to do? Just deal with it!"

"The main point is not to overthink things; if you overthink, you'll only make things difficult for yourself in the end."

"Not only did you make yourself angry, but that guy didn't even realize it."

Bluebell's face bore an indescribable sense of vicissitude, as if she had suffered greatly.

Qiao Bai: "?"

My curiosity didn't diminish; in fact, it grew stronger.

However, Qiao Bai did not rush to ask any further questions.

Clearly, even Lan Fengling and the others found it difficult to describe Fu Wenxing's eccentricities.

Some things you have to see for yourself to know what's really going on.

Not in a hurry.

I reckon it'll be soon.

Before that, Qiao Bai first curiously surveyed the situation in the Red Mill Mountains.

All around, even the ground beneath our feet showed signs of mining; nothing grew, and the soil was loose and crumbling.

There are also many large and small caves, like mine shafts, long and dark caves that are so big that you can barely squeeze through by bending over.

There are many such caves.

Some are large enough to allow a person 1.8 meters tall to stand and pass through.

Some are so small that you have to half-squat down to walk in.

It's like a real-life maze.

The path that Qiao Bai and the others were walking on wasn't very wide. It was just right for one person to pass, a bit crowded for two people to walk side by side, and for three people... well, some people had already been pushed to the back.

Qiao Bai felt a little dizzy and lightheaded from looking at it.

But Lao Fu, who was leading the way, seemed confident.

"Uncle, are you familiar with the roads around here?" Qiao Bai asked Fu Tianguang beside him.

Fu Tianguang stroked his chin and said, "It's unlikely that everyone knows every single road, but most people probably do, unless it's something very, very old, in which case I might not be so sure."

Old Fu also heard Fu Tianguang's words and turned around to glare at his son.

Then he said to Qiao Bai, "That's not wrong."

"The caves and roads here were dug at different times. There may be several paths inside a cave with the same entrance, just like a rabbit digging a burrow."

"Sometimes those extra holes that are dug are used to mislead others."

Qiao Bai looked on with a sigh.

Gold prospectors, you guys really know how to have fun!

Old Fu understood what Qiao Bai's eyes were trying to convey, and he snorted twice: "Then you have no idea how dangerous this industry was in the early years."

"The situation has gradually stabilized in recent years, and the fossil excavation craze has subsided, so things are a bit better."

"But in the early years, there were always some people who wanted to get something for nothing. They would lie in wait at the door and steal fossils that others had dug up."

"The better ones just had their day's harvest stolen, the worse ones..." Old Fu said, shaking his head.

A large forest has all kinds of birds.

"That's why there are these complex caves, especially at the entrance, where you'll find even more of them."

"Some of them were dug by robbers to use as stakeouts."

"Some of them were prepared in advance by the people who were fleeing, and were used to ask those people for help."
