My beast taming system has absolutely no problems!

Due to the instability of its genes, the Spirit Velvet Beast can evolve into different forms with different attributes through special spiritual materials of different attributes.

For example, there are six types, such as Fire Spirit Fleece evolved from Flame White Stone and Wood Spirit Fleece evolved from Spirit Grass Moss.

Eevee from the Beastmaster World belongs to that category.

Moreover, among the six evolutionary forms, the highest can reach the racial potential of a hegemon.

It can be considered an all-around pet that can be both charming and cute, and capable of fighting on the battlefield.

but...

How come there's a Spirit Velvet Beast in my pet house?

Is it still in stealth mode?

Xia Yu had no recollection of the Spirit Velvet Beast having the ability to become invisible, and its special ability had nothing to do with invisibility.

Out of curiosity, he used his mind to summon the Pokédex and scanned the Spiritmonger.

Pokémon: Eevee (Pixmon)

[Gender: Female]

[Attribute: Spirit]

[Energy Level: 19 (Beginner)]

[Racial Rank: ???]

【Trait: Gene Lock (Can freely switch between multiple unlocked evolutionary forms, increasing skill damage of the current attribute by 50%)

[Skills: Hardening, Grassy Scent, Water Melting, Fireball, Mud Bomb, Wind Blast, Lightning Strike, Ice Cone, Light Concealment, Psychic Power, Demonic Energy Bomb, Dragon Breath...]

【Favourability: 0】

[Status: Fear!]

[Evolution Path: (Unlocked by consuming 1000 Breeding Coins)]

Xia Yu was stunned.

How come your skill set includes everything from basic elemental attributes like metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and ice, to special attributes like light, darkness, spirit, and dragon?

Is this a skill library or an attribute table?

[Light Concealment] is a powerful force; no wonder he was able to hide in the room just now.

This isn't the only problem.

An unprecedented talent: the "Genetic Lock," a species level that even the Pokédex couldn't detect, and an evolutionary path costing a whopping 1000 Breeding Coins...

Everything indicated that this spirit-like creature was extraordinary.

Besides, judging from how terrified it looked... could it have escaped from some dark organization's laboratory?

Xia Yu's guess was not without basis.

Due to its unique evolutionary path, the Spirit Velvet Beast has always been a key subject of academic research in the world of Beast Taming.

In the early years, many well-known beast-taming research institutes were frequently exposed for conducting experiments on spirit wool beasts that went against the principles of pet ownership.

A well-known beast-taming research institute has been found to have conducted gene-splitting experiments on Spirit Velvet Beasts, attempting to graft gene fragments from dragon-attribute pets into the Spirit Velvet Beast's gene chain...

Footage from an undercover investigation of an overseas laboratory showed dozens of spirit beasts confined in cages barely larger than shoeboxes, their bodies covered in various monitoring cables and energy conductors...

Later, the World Beast Taming Association, together with several major alliances including Donghuang, Hezhong, Europa, Beimeng, and Nanyang, issued the strictest "Ethical Convention for Pet Experimentation" in history.

Under intense pressure, this unhealthy trend was barely brought to a halt.

Even so, in recent years, many research institutes have been exposed for conducting illegal experiments on the Lingrong Beast.

After all, researching a new evolutionary form of the Spirit Velvet Beast with new attributes would mean a huge amount of fame and wealth.

Could it be that this spirit-wool beast was also persecuted in this way?

Looking at the little guy huddled in the corner, trembling, Xia Yu felt a pang of pity.

Chapter 56 The Nine Evolutionary Forms of the Spirit Velvet Beast!

Xia Yu looked at Madam Xue Ling beside him and said softly, "Aunt Xue, why don't you go and comfort it?"

It wasn't that I was afraid the Spirit Velvet Beast would hurt me.

He will not be harmed inside the nursery.

Xia Yu's main concern was that the spirit beast's mental state was too unstable.

It was clearly very frightened, and if a stranger approaches it again, it is likely to have an even stronger stress response.

It would be safer to send Lady Snow Spirit, who has a spiritual attribute.

"Eek..."

Lady Xueling responded softly.

After adjusting her energy to its gentlest state, she gracefully walked towards the corner.

A gentle stream of spiritual energy flowed from Lady Snow Spirit's fingertips, silently enveloping the trembling body of the Spirit Velvet Beast.

Under the soothing influence of spiritual energy, the spirit-like beast trembled less violently.

It raised its head, its pale pink eyes darting timidly toward Lady Snow Spirit through the reflection of its tears.

"Eee..."

"Hey~"

"..."

The two pets began to communicate, asking and answering questions.

Xia Yu stood aside, unable to understand a single word, only seeing Madam Xue Ling's expression gradually change from a neutral smile to a gentler demeanor.

His eyebrows furrowed slightly and then relaxed, he pursed his lips, and then sighed softly.

Then, following Madam Xue Ling's gaze, the Spirit Velvet Beast turned its attention to Xia Yu, who was standing not far away.

Its body visibly tensed up again, but this time it didn't retract; it simply curled its tail even tighter, resting the tip on its front paws, as if trying to embolden itself.

It looked at Xia Yu, opened its mouth, and then let out a very soft cry.

"Eee..."

Xia Yu looked at Madam Xue Ling with a puzzled expression. The latter pointed to the energy cube on the table, her meaning self-evident.

Got it, I need to feed them.

Xia Yu nodded in realization, then turned around and picked up the plate of qualification blocks on the table.

He thought for a moment, then took out a clean small dish from the cabinet next to him, poured the six aptitude cubes into the dish and arranged them neatly, then poured a glass of warm water and placed it beside him.

Then, Xia Yu carried the plate and water toward the Spirit Velvet Beast.

He noticed that the closer he got, the more tense the spirit beast's face became.

Xia Yu dared not provoke it, so he stopped more than five meters away from the Spirit Velvet Beast and placed the aptitude cube and water on the ground.

He crouched down, trying to reduce the oppressive feeling of his "tall primate" figure, and said softly, "Eat up, little guy, there's more if you're not full."

Lady Snow Spirit also chimed softly in response.

"Hey~"

With the combined comfort of the person and the pet, the Spirit Velvet Beast gradually lowered its guard and trotted towards the food plate on its four short legs.

But when it was just a step away from the plate, it suddenly stopped.

Then she raised her head, her pale pink eyes staring straight at Xia Yu, as if making a final confirmation.

Xia Yu didn't move, but simply nodded slightly and then curled the corners of his mouth into a slight smile.

The Spirit Velvet Beast understood the permission in that smile.

It lowered its head, picked up a quality cube, and carefully took a bite.

Unlike before when it stole food, this time it didn't swallow it whole, but took small bites.

With each bite, the little guy would look up at Xia Yu, as if to make sure the food hadn't been taken away.

Although the Lingrong Beast is not much bigger than a regular cat, it eats very quickly.

Even while eating and occasionally glancing up at Xia Yu, it still managed to eliminate the remaining seven aptitude blocks in less than five minutes.

A hint of pity flashed in Xia Yu's eyes.

The little guy was clearly starving, but when it went down to eat just now, it only stole one aptitude cube.

Considering the darkness and injustice it may have encountered before ending up here...

Even after experiencing such harm and fear, did they still not learn to plunder and be greedy?

Hakimi, you're such a kind soul!

Xia Yu nodded to himself.

This is a lavish cat, absolutely not Das.

Xia Yu looked at the plate that had been licked until it shone, then at the little blue crumb stuck to the corner of the Spirit Velvet Beast's mouth, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Do you want more? I'll go get you some more?"

The spirit beast immediately shook its little head like a rattle drum.

Seeing that it still looked somewhat unsatisfied, Xia Yu knew that it was definitely not full yet, but was just too embarrassed to accept his kindness.

"It's okay, this is a pet house, there's plenty of food. Wait for me a moment."

After saying this, Xia Yu turned around and went downstairs.

As he reached the corner of the stairs, he glanced back.

The Spirit Velvet Beast tilted its head and watched him go, its fluffy tail swaying slightly behind it before quickly retracting, as if afraid of being discovered to be happy.

Xia Yu chuckled softly, turned around, and continued downstairs.
