Chapter 25 Another Evolutionary Path for the Transformation Silkworm: The Starry Butterfly

Zhang Lingxue touched her cheek with the tip of her tongue and grinned.

Where did this prodigy come from? You know, it took her a whole day to figure out how to use the grinding equipment.

As it turned out, Ye Bai learned it after reading the book for a while. Fortunately, this prodigy was one of his own.

When Ye Bai handed the test report to Zhang Lingxue, Zhang Lingxue was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

Holy crap, does this guy know shadow clones? When did he turn on the detection equipment? How come I didn't know?
Ye Bai delivered several critical hits to Zhang Lingxue, who was now too excited to speak.

She then turned her attention to the test report, which showed that the purity of the iron was as high as 90%.

"You did a great job. Next, we'll prepare the evolution fluid."

After preparing all the materials, Zhang Lingxue took a deep breath; she was about to begin making the Evolution Source Fluid.

This is a skill that every pet breeder must master.

With Ye Bai's assistance, Zhang Lingxue finally managed to create two bottles of evolution source liquid an hour later. The liquid was as dark as night, yet it emitted a faint, star-blue glow.

"Great, we finally succeeded."

"Thanks to your cooperation, we were able to produce two bottles of Evolution Source Liquid using only one set of materials this time."

Zhang Lingxue breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Bai curiously examined the two bottles of evolution source liquid; their mesmerizing colors were truly captivating.

"The quality is good, reaching the second-tier superior grade."

After the process was completed, it was almost evening. Zhang Lingxue poured the evolution source liquid into the impatient Hundred Transformations Silkworm Xiao Shi, and then the two waited in the laboratory for Xiao Shi to evolve.

"Teacher, can you open the skylight?"

"Would being able to see the starry sky be more helpful for the evolution of the Hundred Transformations Silkworm?"

Ye Bai then made another suggestion.

Zhang Lingxue nodded; this seemed to make a lot of sense.

The skylight slowly opened, revealing a dazzling array of stars.

In order not to affect Xiao Shi's evolution, Zhang Lingxue deliberately turned off the lights in the laboratory.

The laboratory's night vision recorder is documenting Xiao Shi's entire evolutionary process.

Its body emitted a powerful, evolving light that appeared extremely intense.

Then the light of evolution began to recede, and the body of the Hundred Transformations Silkworm turned as black as ink.

The evolutionary source fluid it just ingested is stimulating its deep genes.

So far, everything is progressing smoothly.

At that moment, a sudden change occurred.

The starlight was drawn down and fell upon the ever-changing silkworm.

Zhang Lingxue's heart skipped a beat; a change had occurred, and this was not good news.

Has this evolution failed again?
She and Ye Bai watched intently as the ever-changing silkworm evolved.

Suddenly, a crack appeared on the surface of the Hundred Transformations Silkworm, and beams of star-blue light flowed into its body.

A soaking wet pet struggled to crawl out of its shell.

Its wings were not yet fully extended, but Ye Bai could clearly see that Zhang Lingxue breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Bai was somewhat confused, but Zhang Lingxue gestured with her eyes for him to calm down.

Her eyes were filled with excitement; she had accidentally unlocked another evolutionary path for the Hundred Transformations Silkworm.

Starlight gathered on the pet, and its wings began to unfurl.

Its body was also bathed in starlight.

Only after the starlight gradually faded did the true appearance of the pet beast become visible.

These are wings as dazzling as a galaxy, radiating starlight. Its eyes are like dreamlike gems, and with each flap of its wings, star-blue scales fall from the sky.

Compared to the Dark Butterfly, the butterfly-shaped pet in front of them is twice the size of the Dark Butterfly and slightly larger than the Goddess of Light Butterfly.

The pet beast flapped its wings and landed on Zhang Lingxue's back, giving Zhang Lingxue a pair of butterfly wings, making her look like a butterfly fairy who had mistakenly entered the mortal world.

Her neck was as white as jade, like a swan's, and her beautiful butterfly bones accentuated her aloof appearance.

"Ye Bai, this brand-new evolution path was discovered by the two of us together, so you can name this pet beast."

Ye Bai thought for a moment and said, "How about calling it Starry Butterfly?"

"Ten miles of starry sky, butterflies and flowers like a dream."

"Starry Butterfly, what a beautiful name."

"Xiao Shi, from now on you will be Xinglan Butterfly."

Zhang Lingxue gently touched Xinglan Butterfly's forehead and signed a contract with Xinglan Butterfly in front of everyone.

Ye Bai was dumbfounded. Everyone knew that Zhang Lingxue was a third-tier pet master. Generally, a third-tier pet master could only sign three pets.

Zhang Lingxue has already contracted more than three pet beasts.

"Haha, seeing the puzzled look on your face, you're probably wondering if I'm really a Tier 3 Pet Master."

"Theoretically speaking, I am a Tier 3 Pet Master, but in reality, I am not."

"I am already a fifth-tier pet master."

"In fact, I didn't mean to hide it. It's just that my teaching duties and immersive research left me with no time to go to the Pet Beast Guild to change my Pet Beast Master certification."

Zhang Lingxue smoothed her hair.

"Ye Bai, your guess is correct. The Hundred Transformations Silkworm has very high requirements for its environment."

"My Dark Butterfly didn't open a window during its evolution."

"So we stumbled upon another evolutionary path for the ever-changing silkworm."

"Once the reproducibility test is successful, I plan to include your name in the list as well."

Ye Bai shook his head vigorously, like a rattle-drum: "Teacher, please just write your name."

"After all, I only suggested opening the window. You completed 99% of the process. I was just a witness. Adding my name to the list would be a bit like seeking fame."

After calming down and thinking it over, Zhang Lingxue realized that Ye Bai was right. Exposing Ye Bai too early would easily put him in the spotlight.

"Moreover, teacher, I am confident that I can discover a completely new evolutionary path for the ever-changing silkworm on my own initiative."

Ye Bai had a confident and assured expression.

"Alright, you're now my personal disciple. If you need anything, be sure to come to me."

At this moment, Ye Bai hesitated for a moment and said, "Teacher, there is indeed something, but it's a little difficult to say."

Three question marks slowly appeared on Zhang Lingxue's forehead?

Half an hour later, watching the Thousand Transformations Silkworm devour its food, Zhang Lingxue covered her forehead.

"No wonder you were embarrassed to speak up. This Thousand-Change Silkworm can eat too much; it's the same amount of food as a dozen Hundred-Change Silkworms."

"With this big glutton, I doubt you could afford to support him."

In the afternoon, Zhang Lingxue watched as the Thousand-Change Silkworm and its little group kept eating.

My mouth never stopped moving.

"I have plenty of high-grade feed here. You can come and collect a portion from time to time. Consider this a special perk for becoming my personal disciple."

"But I don't have any more, you'll have to figure it out yourself."

"After all, even landlords don't have surplus grain!"
