Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 324 Global Youth Researcher Competition
Whether it's the lava dragon turtle igniting a volcano or the radioactive material leak at Delta Energy, neither is good news for Yan Country.

"This intelligence must be reported as soon as possible."

Ye Bai's heart was in his throat at this moment.

He now only hopes that everything will go smoothly and that no major accidents will occur.

The next day, Ye Bai saw his grandmaster Su Qingxian with a full head of silver hair.

Standing beside her was the eternal songstress, Zhang Jie.

"Zhang Jie has nowhere to go for the time being. Her health needs to be tested. Once it is confirmed that there are no problems, we will let Zhang Jie leave."

"Her pets were lucky; they were all sleeping soundly in the pet space."

Su Qingxian seemed to see through the surprise in Ye Bai's eyes and quickly explained to him.

"Zhang Jie is also my bodyguard now, haha."

Su Qingxian then chuckled awkwardly.

Zhang Jie smiled and then stood quietly to the side.

She directly created a soundproof barrier to facilitate conversation between Su Qingxian and Ye Bai.

"Ye Bai, this time, there is a secret mission that only you can complete."

"Dr. William from the United States is a longtime friend of mine."

"I asked him to help me buy a very special research reagent, but the news got out."

"His whereabouts are unknown. Before he left, he sent me a Morse code and gave me a coordinate."

“I checked the coordinates, and that location is right where your match is being held.”

"Inside the New Testament University."

"With your intelligence, obtaining this research potion shouldn't be a problem."

"But figuring out how to get this vial out will probably be difficult."

"The United States has absolute control over this drug."

Su Qingxian looked into the distance.

"To prevent the drug from leaking out, they also specially bred a pet called the Ripple Jellyfish."

"These wavy jellyfish are particularly sensitive to the smell of medicine."

"Even if the potion is hidden inside a spatial beast, it will be easily found by them."

“Once it’s discovered that you have the drug, you probably won’t be able to leave America alive.”

Su Qingxian said with utmost solemnity.

"Grandmaster, you can rest assured and leave it to me."

Ye Bai didn't need to ask Su Qingxian to know that this medicine was very special, and that Dr. William had risked his life to transfer this bottle of medicine.

"If you can't get the medicine back, you need to get Dr. William's notes."

"The notebook contains the formula for the medicine, but some of the raw materials are very hard to find, and some are even extinct."

"Dr. William also put in a lot of effort to figure it out."

"I can't go into details now, as this involves highly classified information."

"The lady bat from the Twenty-Eight Constellations who is leading this team is skilled in spatial teleportation. If you encounter any danger, you can ask her for help."

After saying a few more words, Su Qingxian hurriedly left.

Soon, Ye Bai was summoned to the conference room.

There were ten people in the large conference room.

Just as Ye Bai was looking around, a middle-aged woman wearing black-rimmed glasses and looking very meticulous appeared.

She is McGonagall, the vice president of Imperial University.

"Hello everyone, I am McGonagall, the vice president of Imperial University, and also the team leader for this trip."

"The Global Youth Research Competition is related to the ranking of our Imperial University in the world."

"More than one hundred countries participated in this competition."

"Our strong competitors include the United States, the United States, and so on."

"This competition is mainly divided into preliminary rounds, semi-finals, and finals, especially the finals, which are extremely difficult."

"Therefore, I hope that some students will follow my instructions."

After McGonagall finished speaking, she subconsciously glanced at Ye Bai.

Good grief, is this talking about me?

"Our Yan Kingdom has ranked second for five consecutive times."

"I heard that a genius has emerged from India in this competition. That guy's talent is mind reading."

"So everyone must be careful."

"In this competition, the team members will be randomly shuffled."

"Furthermore, everyone's pets will be completely sealed, and the pet space will be inaccessible. This is done to prevent others from cheating."

After hearing what Principal McGonagall said, everyone looked at each other, feeling that this was a trap.

"Teacher, what if we encounter danger during the competition?"

A girl with freckles raised her hand and asked Principal McGonagall.

"Don't worry, the organizing committee members will take care of everyone."

“You will all bear a mark.”

"The mark will be triggered when you encounter danger, rescuing you from dire straits."

"However, once your mark is triggered, you will be disqualified from the competition."

Ye Bai understood what McGonagall meant: if the mark was triggered, he would lose his eligibility to participate in the competition.

This is to prevent everyone from killing each other.

"Alright, everyone, let's get to know each other. In a little while, we'll be boarding a large transport plane and heading to New York City in the United States."

"The competition will be held in the central research lab at New Testament University."

"The place there is very large; it was built specifically for the Institute of Competitive Sports."

"Please relax, everyone. What won't happen will never happen. Just keep a calm mind."

Principal McGonagall knows how to comfort people.

Everyone started to get to know each other, and Ye Bai greeted them with a smile.

Soon, on the large transport plane, Ye Bai saw Lady Bat.

The woman was wearing a hip-hop outfit.

She walked with light steps, her graffiti-print hoodie swaying gently with her movements, and a baseball cap that obscured her dark and deep eyes.

Her almond-shaped eyes were lively and sharp, as if they could see through the fog of people's hearts. The corners of her eyes were slightly upturned, revealing a hint of unruliness and stubbornness.

Her eyebrows were thick and strong, drawn straight up on her forehead like swords, and there was a bat-shaped floral decoration on her forehead.

A cynical smile played on her lips, but it couldn't hide the occasional hint of childishness on her face.

A white-haired bat floats beside the lady bat.

She darted forward and appeared in front of Ye Bai.

"So you're Ye Bai."

"Teacher Su Qingxian asked me to take good care of you."

"But don't cause trouble, and whatever you do, don't put me in a difficult position, understand?"

"By the way, my name is Yuan Fu."

New Testament University.

The agents are still searching for the whereabouts of the special drug.

A blond man is resting with his eyes closed.

"Sir, the whereabouts of the medicine and notebook that Dr. William took are still unknown."

“We have explored every corner of New Testament University and found no hidden spaces.”

"Could it be that Dr. William took it himself?"

The blond man's subordinate spoke to him.

"No, Dr. William is a very cautious person."

"Even if he were to flee, he wouldn't take these with him."

"According to my pet tarot cards, the item is at New Testament University, but its senses are being blocked by something." "Continue the search."

"The preliminary round of the Global Youth Research Fellowship Competition was held at New Testament University."

“It’s too late to change it now, so we have to find it before those teenagers arrive at New Testament University.”

"Otherwise, our workload will become enormous."

The transport plane was huge, and everyone was assigned a room.

Just as Ye Bai was resting in his room, there was a gentle knock on the door.

"The door is unlocked, please come in."

Ye Bai's voice came out.

Just then, Yuan Fu walked in.

She took out a large stack of talismans and placed them in Ye Bai's hands.

"This is a spatial talisman I crafted."

"As long as you tear off a corner of the space talisman, it will be fully activated."

"You will then be teleported over long distances."

"However, this teleportation has no direction, and you may end up in a worse situation."

"But it's alright, I've made enough space talismans, enough for you to tear apart and play with without any problem."

Ye Bai was immediately filled with respect; this woman was truly magnanimous.

As for where Dr. William hid his things, Ye Bai felt he didn't need to bother looking for them.

The system will tell you everything.

But just then, a sharp bird cry rang out in the air.

Upon hearing the birdsong, Yuan Fu's expression immediately changed.

"Oh no, that's the voice of the Great Vulture."

The thing people who travel by transport plane fear most is encountering a king vulture.

This strange beast is known as the old rogue of the sky.

Each King Vulture is as big as an airplane. It is a lone wolf and its strength is around level seven.

They like to peck open the cabin of airplanes with their sharp beaks and then treat humans as their appetizer.

The king vulture has a very good digestive system; it will devour airplanes as if they were its main meal.

However, at this moment, Yuan Fu heard birdsong more than once, and her expression turned quite bad.

"Damn it, there's more than one giant vulture here. Aren't they usually lone wolves?"

Just then, the transport plane's hatch was pierced by a sharp bird's beak.

The wind rushed out of the broken hole, so strong that Ye Bai could hardly open his eyes.

"Myriad Transformations Butterfly, transform into the Thunderlight Butterfly King!"

The Myriad Transformations Butterfly instantly transformed into the Butterfly King.

A huge eye peering inside through the broken opening.

As a bolt of lightning flew toward the gap, a sharp, hoarse scream immediately rang out from outside.

The plane was swaying in the air.

The sharp bird cries made Ye Bai feel somewhat irritated.

"Be sure to wear earplugs and avoid listening to birdsong for too long."

"Otherwise, it will cause you mental problems."

"The Great Vulture is a wind-type and soul-type beast that feeds on souls."

At that moment, a jet-black bird claw reached into the hatch.

The hatch was as flimsy as paper, with a huge hole punched in it by the king vulture.

Ye Bai saw the king vulture's bald head and its jet-black feathers.

【Name: King Vulture】

[Gender: Male]

[Attribute: Wind/Soul]

[Level: 7th Tier, Level 5]

【Skill: Flight (Proficient): Use wings to fly into the air and attack enemies in mid-air.】

Venomous Claws (Proficient): The claws are covered in venom; if they touch an opponent, the opponent will quickly become poisoned.

King Vulture (Skilled): Uses its sharp beak to fiercely pierce its opponent; even a meter-thick steel plate can be easily pierced by the King Vulture.

Birdsong (Mastery): Attacks the opponent by emitting a sharp, piercing, and disturbing noise from the mouth, causing the opponent's soul to become slightly unstable, resulting in feelings of nausea and drowsiness.

The Dead's Lament (Skilled): Releases the souls it has devoured from its mouth. All souls consumed by the Great Vulture will be enslaved by it, somewhat similar to a cougar.

[Evolution Route 1: Great Vulture King: 10 Tier 7 Soul-type Crystal Cores.]

[Evolution Route 2: Death Vulture: The souls of ten thousand strange beasts complete their final evolution in the Land of Death.]

[Evaluation: The King Vulture is impervious to weapons and fire, except for one small white feather, which is its Achilles' heel. Removing this feather will instantly kill the King Vulture; however, this feather is extremely small.]

After seeing the King Vulture's specific data, Ye Bai felt that defeating this guy wouldn't be difficult.

But the number of king vultures seems rather large.

Just then, Principal McGonagall rushed over.

"Lady Bat, what on earth happened here?"

The female bat said gravely, "We've encountered a king vulture."

"And they were a flock of king vultures."

"Principal McGonagall, please arrange for all the students to be placed in one room."

"If there is danger, or if the transport plane can no longer hold up, we will immediately carry out space transfer."

Lady Bat handed the white-haired bat to Principal McGonagall.

"My little bat will protect you."

Principal McGonagall left in a hurry.

She recognized Ye Bai's spirit at a glance, indicating that his strength was considerable.

"Ye Bai, do you know what the King Vulture's weaknesses are?"

Jiao Mujiao once told him that Ye Bai had extremely strong observation skills, and if he encountered anything that required a lot of brainpower, he could just hand it over to Ye Bai.

I guarantee I'll get it all sorted out for you.

"Yes, the king vulture has a white feather, that is its lifeline."

“If you pluck that white feather, the king vulture will die immediately.”

"However, the king vultures are certainly aware of their own weakness, so defeating them will not be easy."

A giant vulture circled overhead, and then a man wearing a mask resembling a doctor with a bird's beak appeared.

"It's so hard, so incredibly hard to find such an opportunity."

"The people of Yan are really annoying. My divine eagle will help me wipe them all out."

"Don't blame me, you guys are so popular right now, I had no choice but to resort to this."

This masked man wanted to take down the Yan Kingdom, which had the potential to win the championship, first.

By eliminating it completely, we reduce one competitor.

"Haha, my talent allows me to control vulture-like beasts."

"So I focused all my attention on finding the King Vulture."

"I'm sorry, but you've run into me. This is your misfortune."

"Great Vulture, annihilate them all!"

Dr. Birdbeak seems to intend to classify this disaster as an air crash.

That way, no one will focus their attention on you.

Inside the transport aircraft.

McGonagall and her classmates had already put on their parasols, and the white-haired bats formed a spatial barrier, completely surrounding McGonagall and her friends.
