What does it mean when a pet evolves incorrectly?

When the relaxed expression on his face completely disappeared, Zhou Ming's lips curled up, and his gaze sharpened:

"Flaming Eagle, Blazing Charge."

"Hey!"

The Flame Eagle let out a high-pitched cry and quickly regained its posture in the air. The slight disarray caused by being grazed by the Flame Breath Bullet disappeared, and its aura became fierce.

It hovered and rose slightly, its wings flapping rapidly in a unique rhythm, and a shallow stream of flame seemed to be attracted by some invisible force, frantically converging towards its body!

The surface of the fiery red feathers was quickly covered with a layer of bright, blazing flames, and waves of heat spread outwards.

The next moment, the Flame Eagle suddenly folded its wings and its entire body, like a meteor enveloped in flames, swooped down from the low sky.

It was extremely fast and had an astonishing momentum.

The Flameclaw Beast stood still, its eyes fixed on the figure that was approaching at an astonishing speed.

Instead of immediately dodging or defending, it tilted its head, a very human-like thought flashing in its eyes.

Aren't the Flamehawk's movements almost exactly the same as the instructional steps broken down in the afternoon video?

Oh, so it's the same skill.

It was so focused on watching that it even momentarily ignored the approaching scorching heat and howling wind.

"Second Fire, get out of the way," Lin Chen's voice rang out promptly.

The Flameclaw Beast snapped out of its daze and swiftly slid to the right.

call--!

The Flamehawk whizzed past it, barely grazing its body. The scorching heat wave curled the fur on its left shoulder slightly, but caused no real damage.

When its attack missed, the Flame Eagle's powerful wings suddenly flapped in the opposite direction, its tail feathers swung like the most agile ship's rudder, and its body drew a sharp small arc in the air, instantly completing a near right-angle turn and change of direction.

Its wings once again unleashed propulsion, carrying the lingering flames, and it slammed fiercely into the Flameclaw Beast.

This time, the Flameclaw Beast had no time to dodge.

boom!

The burning edge of the eagle's wing struck the Flameclaw Beast's right shoulder blade squarely, with scorching flames and powerful impact erupting simultaneously!

"Gaku!"

The Flameclaw Beast cried out in pain, its body staggering several steps to the left from the impact, a burning pain shooting through its right shoulder blade.

"Hey——!"

Having succeeded in its attack, the Flaming Eagle used the momentum to regain altitude, circling at low altitude and emitting a triumphant, clear cry.

A smile appeared on Zhou Ming's face.

This is the rhythm he's most familiar with!

Fiery Charge is the skill with the highest proficiency level for Flamehawk. Although it has not yet broken through to the proficiency level, it only took two days to initially master it.

The Blazing Charge, combined with the Flamehawk's innate speed and agility, often gives it the upper hand in close combat. If it misses a strike, it can change direction and follow up, making it difficult for the opponent to defend against.

On the field.

Despite being injured for the first time in the battle, the Flameclaw Beast did not show any signs of frustration or anger. Instead, it shook its slightly dizzy head, raised its eyes and stared at the Flamehawk with unusually bright eyes.

So that's how you're supposed to use this skill!

It understands!

It understood everything!

All the difficulties and confusions he had encountered while watching videos and trying things out during the day suddenly became clear in this moment. Flameclaw Beast grinned, his expression excited.

I truly am a genius, one in a million!

It quickly turned its head to look at Lin Chen and waved its claws vigorously.

It's done!

Lin Chen, who was telepathically connected with the Flameclaw Beast, was momentarily stunned.

What does it mean to suddenly learn the fiery charge?

But when Lin Chen summoned the Flame Claw Beast's data panel and saw the newly generated line of information, he immediately fell silent—Fiery Charge (Beginner).

Have you really mastered it?

Having only witnessed the use of Blazing Charge once, could my Flameclaw Beast truly be a genius?

This is unreasonable!

Before Lin Chen could think it through, the Flame Eagle locked onto the Flame Claw Beast again. With a long roar, crimson flames covered its entire body once more, carrying an indomitable and astonishing momentum as it crashed into the Flame Claw Beast, which seemed to be still in a daze!

Lin Chen's eyes sharpened, and he decisively ordered, "Let's also unleash our Blazing Charge!"

The Flameclaw Beast's eyes shone brightly, and it lowered its body slightly, its limbs muscles instantly tensing like steel.

The next moment, a scorching aura erupted from its body, and raging flames ignited from its surface, quickly covering its entire body!

Seeing this, Zhou Ming raised an eyebrow: "Huh, is it also a fiery breakthrough?"

"Gaku!"

The next moment, the Flameclaw Beast gripped the ground with its claws and stomped down, the flames enveloping its entire body swaying wildly.

In the blink of an eye, the Flameclaw Beast's figure vanished from its spot, transforming into a fiery meteor trailing a long tail of flame, charging head-on into the Flame Eagle descending from the sky!

Two figures, one above the other and the other burning, collided solidly in mid-air!

Rumble!!!

The sound of the explosion resounded throughout the entire training ground. In that instant, the two flames collided, intertwined, and exploded!

A violent airflow swept out in a ring in all directions, causing the surrounding trees to sway slightly and a few leaves to fall.

The blast wave also stirred up the gravel and dust, forming a small cloud of billowing black smoke that temporarily obscured visibility.

Lin Chen and Zhou Ming simultaneously raised their heads, their eyes fixed on the billowing black smoke.

Who's winning?

The black smoke slowly dissipated in the night breeze.

In the center of the arena, the Flameclaw Beast stood majestically.

The raging flames covering its body had been extinguished, and its orange fur was singed black and curly, especially the parts that had collided head-on, which even had some small burns.

"Gaku..."

It was breathing heavily, and white breath with sparks was coming out of its mouth and nose, clearly indicating that the collision had taken a huge toll.

But its eyes remained sharp, its body remained upright, and apart from its heavy breathing, there was no sign of exhaustion or serious injury.

Not far in front of it, another figure hovered in the air.

It's the Flamehawk.

The feathers on the Flamehawk's body were now charred, curled, and fallen off in large patches, revealing the scalded and reddened skin underneath.

One wing was twisted at an unnatural angle, clearly injured in the violent collision.

It barely raised its neck, a wisp of blood hanging from its beak, its eyes dull and lifeless, its wings flapping slowly, and its body swaying unsteadily.

Sit down!

But the battle was not over yet. In his astonishment, Zhou Ming attempted a final counterattack.

But at that moment, the Flameclaw Beast used its hind legs to pounce again.

Its right forepaw was instantly covered by a sharp, cold light, and with a sharp whistling sound, it slammed into the Flame Eagle's weakest point—its chest and abdomen.

The tearing sound was clear. The Flameclaw Beast hadn't used its full strength in that claw, but it was enough to send the already heavily injured and weakened Flamehawk tumbling away, only stopping when it crashed to the edge of the arena.

"Hey..."

The Flame Eagle let out a short, mournful cry, its eyes rolled back, and its aura weakened to the extreme.

The training ground fell into a deathly silence.

Zhou Ming stared blankly at the fallen, unconscious Flame Eagle, like a petrified statue. He raised his right hand, then slowly lowered it.

He didn't say anything, but his eyes were glazed over.

Lin Chen glanced at the Flame Eagle, which lay unconscious and covered in wounds, and then at the Flame Claw Beast, which was also injured but still exuded power. He pursed his lips.

Was I too heavy-handed?

Although the employer said he hoped to have a good time, losing like this certainly has nothing to do with having a good time.

Oh no, is this part-time job opportunity gone?

Fortunately, Flameclaw accidentally mastered Blazing Charge, so it shouldn't be a complete loss.

The silence lasted for quite a while.

Until Zhou Ming suddenly took a deep breath, his chest heaving violently.

He strode forward, his gaze fixed intently on Lin Chen, and said in a loud voice, "Good, that's how you should fight!"

"You are the one!"

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, what's your name again?"
