What does it mean when a pet evolves incorrectly?

The thirteenth day after defeating Zhou Ming.

Training room.

The sunlight, filtered softly by the heavy curtains, fell evenly onto the smooth training ground floor.

"Gagoo—!"

With a suppressed growl, the Flameclaw Beast's figure suddenly transformed into a streak of light enveloped in flames, crashing into the specially designed buffer target at an extremely fast speed.

The intense flames erupted upon impact, violently tilting the heavy target backward, leaving a clear charred dent on its surface, and a wave of heat rushed out.

The Flameclaw Beast used the momentum to retreat, landing steadily with its chest heaving violently and white breath emitting sparks from its mouth and nose, yet its eyes remained bright.

Lin Chen stood on the sidelines, observing every detail with focused attention.

The Pinepe lay quietly at his feet, its soft body rising and falling slightly with its breath. While Lin Chen was focused on the Flameclaw Beast, it glanced at him with its dark eyes and then stealthily stretched out a paw.

Lin Chen did not react.

The dog continued to extend its second paw.

Lin Chen remained motionless.

As a result, the dog got even closer to Lin Chen, to the point that it could rub against Lin Chen's trouser leg with a simple tilt of its head.

"Alright, that's enough." Lin Chen spoke up at the right moment.

The Flameclaw Beast returned to Lin Chen's side, swallowed the energy cube, and felt the pure energy dissipate within its body, relieving the fatigue from training.

Since receiving the 10,000 yuan bonus and becoming Zhou Ming's personal sparring partner, Lin Chen's financial situation has improved somewhat. Although he can no longer buy cultivation resources at will, he no longer needs to hesitate too much when buying energy blocks.

Moreover, when buying kebabs for Flameclaw Beast, I no longer need to fill my stomach by drinking water.

[After two hours of training, the Flameclaw Beast gained 2 experience points.]

Starting from a certain day, the system seemed to have completed its own evolution, automatically displaying the specific experience points that pets gained through training.

In this way, Lin Chen can more intuitively judge the training effect of the Flame Claw Beast.

With a slight thought, he brought up the data panel:

[Pet: Agumon (Local name: Flameclawmon)]

[Level: Tier 1 (286/300)]

[Attribute: Fire]

[Race Level: Intermediate Transcendent]

[Moves: Flame Breath (Proficient), Sharp Claws (Proficient), Small Explosion (Beginner), Blazing Charge (Beginner)]

【Intimacy Level: 84】

[Evolution Method: Evolution Experience Points (280/500), Tyrannosaurus Heart x1]

During this period, under the relatively regular training conditions and high-intensity combat missions at the detention center, coupled with the help of double experience cards, the Flameclaw Beast's growth rate was astonishing.

[Sharp Claws] has successfully broken through to the proficiency level, on par with [Flame Breath Bullet]. The proficiency of [Blazing Charge] is also increasing rapidly, and it is estimated that it will break through to the proficiency level in a few days.

I'm only half a step away from getting the Knowledge Badge.

Once the Knowledge Badge is obtained, Flameclaw's progress rate will be further increased.

Furthermore, through rigorous training day after day, and the experience points contributed by each of his pets, Flameclaw Beast is just one step away from breaking through to the second tier.

Ideally, it should take a maximum of two days to successfully break through to the second tier.

According to an unnamed media report, it usually takes about two months for a pet with above-average aptitude to advance from Tier 1 to Tier 2, provided there are sufficient resources and effective training.

It has been exactly one month since the Flameclaw Beast officially formed a contract with the other party.

"Soon."

Lin Chen silently recited to himself, filled with anticipation for the upcoming breakthrough.

In addition, the intimacy level with the Flameclaw Beast has also increased rapidly, but Lin Chen has not yet discovered its use.

As for the evolution slot, it was already mostly filled, and Lin Chen used all the experience points he gained from various tasks for it.

After all, the race level is the most important factor affecting a pet's strength and potential, and has extremely high priority.

Composing himself, Lin Chen glanced at the time and stepped out of the training room.

Back in the office area, as soon as he entered, he saw Zhang Zhi waving vigorously at him: "Achen, come quick! The competition is about to start!"

In this world where beast taming culture is deeply ingrained, watching beast tamers battle is a common form of entertainment.

As long as it doesn't affect work, leaders usually turn a blind eye to it.

When high-level beast tamer competitions are held, the company will even organize employees to watch and cheer them on.

Lin Chen walked quickly to his workstation and sat down, looking up at the large LCD TV hanging on the wall.

The screen is already lit up, playing a preview of the Young Eagle Cup finals.

After several days of intense competition, the Young Eagle Cup has reached the final stage.

The television screen showed a large, circular indoor arena.

The stands were packed with spectators, the air filled with the noise of the crowd, and the colorful light sticks and glow sticks twinkled like a sea of ​​stars.

In the center of the venue is a standard square arena. At each of the four corners of the arena, there is a huge floating screen that simultaneously displays close-up shots of the players and their information.

On the screen, two girls are standing at opposite ends of the field.

Su Qingyuan was wearing a beige fitted sportswear, her long hair tied into a neat high ponytail at the back of her head, revealing her smooth forehead and beautiful neck lines.

She stood tall and straight, her face calm and composed, exuding a cool, aloof yet captivating aura in the center of the bustling arena.

Su Qingyuan's gaze was fixed on the opposite side, as if the surrounding roaring waves had nothing to do with her.

In stark contrast to the composure of her opponent Shu Han, Su Qingyuan, she kept shifting her feet slightly in place, her hands unconsciously clasped together, and the forced smile on her face looked somewhat stiff.

All the viewers understood Shu Han's reaction, after all, she was facing the strongest player in the history of the Young Eagle Cup - Su Qingyuan.

Since the start of the tournament, she has dominated every match, with no opponent putting her in a difficult position, or even forcing her to use her full strength.

She was so relaxed, it was like a master accidentally entering a rookie's arena, a pure case of overwhelming her.

Even without personally commanding, the sheer aura of complete control and dominance is enough to defeat all opponents.

All the audience members said they had never seen such an amazing new beast tamer.

Su Qingyuan was like a storm raging across the arena, completely shattering the thoughts of every contestant and every spectator, forcing everyone to rebuild their understanding.

If all the contestants were ranked, Su Qingyuan would undoubtedly be in a league of her own.

As expected, once the battle began, Su Qingyuan displayed an extremely strong sense of pressure.

She barely gave any commands; her pet beast, the Azure Feather Wind Bird, maintained an extremely formidable suppressive force throughout, striking one after another with swift and efficient attacks. In just one minute, the opponent's pet beast was in dire straits.

With the final blow, the opponent's pet collapsed to the ground, its eyes closed, and it fell into a coma.

The referees seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and the whistle was noticeably delayed.

"The match is over, and the winner is Su Qingyuan!" The host's excited voice even trembled slightly.

After a brief silence, the entire stadium erupted in even more enthusiastic cheers and gasps of amazement.

"This is outrageous! Is this person really a novice beast tamer?"

"This aura, this suppressive power, I feel like I'm facing a professional beast tamer."

"Here's something terrifying: none of Su Qingyuan's matches have lasted more than two minutes."

"Terrifying indeed."

Lin Chen watched Su Qingyuan calmly turn and leave, and fell into deep thought.

Is this person really a beast tamer of the same age as them, who graduated in the same year?

There was no time to feel sorry for Shu Han, who lost the game. Next to arrive at the venue were Lin Chen's employer Zhou Ming and his friend Li Heng.
