Beast Taming: I have a simplified system

Yi Tian said embarrassedly.

"I've entered the secret realm."

Just as he was about to continue explaining, Chu Ying interrupted him.

"Don't say any more, come to the research institute right away, I'll be waiting for you in the garage."

"The location for this competition was drawn by lottery the day before yesterday. It's in Tianlin City. I'll take you there now."

Yi Tian nodded.

"Okay, thank you very much, Minister."

To ensure the fairness of the competition, the judging location is determined randomly, and the topics participating in the judging are not announced before the official start of the competition.

Yi Tian had some impression of Tianlin City; it was located east of Shanwu City, not very far away.

If you drive, it takes about 4 or 5 hours to get there.

First, I called Yi Ying to let her know I was safe, then I took a taxi to the research institute.

Chu Ying had been waiting for a long time.

As I got into the car, I was greeted by Chu Ying's resentful gaze.

"You little rascal, you really enjoy playing the disappearing act, don't you?"

She is the head of the Evolution Department at the Research Institute!

When have I ever been treated this way?

Yi Tian felt a little embarrassed by the stares.

"I've planned the timing..."

Chu Ying gave a soft hum and started driving.

In fact, given her rank, she could have had a private driver, but Chu Ying preferred to drive herself.

"I already sent the judging process and prizes to your email. Please take a look."

Yi Tian nodded.

"it is good."

Open your phone and go to your email.

As stated above.

For projects that have been nominated for awards, the order of demonstrations will be determined by drawing lots on-site.

Present the results in order.

A panel of 100 experts will score the applications based on two dimensions: scope of application and degree of improvement.

Finally, the rankings are determined by combining the scores.

Generous rewards are available for anyone who makes it into the top 10.

For each project ranked 4th to 10th, you can obtain any material worth 300 million.

The most outrageous thing is the top 3: 3rd place gets 500 million for any material, 2nd place gets 800 million, and 1st place gets 1500 million!

"Minister, what does 'arbitrary material' mean?"

Chu Ying said.

"You can make a request, and the research institute will help you find materials nationwide."

Yi Tian was pleasantly surprised and asked curiously.

"Minister, do you think I have a chance of getting first place?"

Chu Ying shook her head decisively.

"It's a bit risky."

"Your plan has a major drawback at the moment."

"What?"

There are no successful cases.

"Although the scoring is based on two dimensions, according to past experience, if there are no successful cases, the score will be lowered by about 20%."

Chu Ying comforted her.

"Don't be discouraged. Your evolution path is definitely the best. You'll definitely be in the top 3. With a bit of luck, you might even be number 1."

That's the truth.

Otherwise, Chu Ying wouldn't have been so surprised before.

Yi Tian's expression stiffened for a moment.

He was just thinking that if he got first place tomorrow, he could directly exchange it for spiritual metals to help the Great Sage evolve.

So here's the question.

If the Great Sage doesn't evolve, there's a high probability he won't get first place.

Isn't this creating a vicious cycle?

Actually, when you think about the scoring criteria, they make a lot of sense.

When demonstrating the results of an evolutionary path, it is certainly not possible to disclose all the details.

So this is just a simulation result, and how many Dragon Coins would be needed to follow the evolutionary path.

The judges didn't actually know how difficult evolution was, because the difficulty lay entirely in the details.

Many evolutionary paths are feasible, but the difficulty of evolution is too great, so they score lower in terms of application scope.

If, after finding an evolutionary path, there isn't even a single successful example, it's tantamount to telling everyone that the evolutionary path is only theoretically feasible, but its operational difficulty is ridiculously high.

"It seems that if I want to get first place, I must let the Great Sage complete his evolution before the demonstration."

Yi Tian rubbed his chin, thinking to himself.

When Yi Tian first received the simplified solution, he checked it on two platforms and found it to be diamond-grade spiritual metal.

The trading platform of Career Home didn't have much spiritual metal to begin with, and now it seems it's all been bought up.

The research institute has 600 grams left.

That's not enough either.

Moreover, Yi Tian has plenty of money now, not points, so he can't buy directly.

Fortunately, the minister was sitting right next to me.

Yi Tian organized his thoughts and looked at Chu Ying.

"Minister, as long as there is enough spiritual metal, I am confident that I can complete the evolution of the Great Sage within a day."

"I'd like to ask you for a favor..."

呲......

The car braked suddenly, and the tires screeched as they rubbed against the pavement.

Yi Tian leaned forward due to the strong inertia.

Fortunately, the seatbelt protected me from a direct collision with the car body.

"What did you say?"

Chu Ying's reaction was somewhat exaggerated.

Yi Tian repeated it.

If anyone else had said this, Chu Ying would have taken it as bragging.

But this person is Yi Tian.

Chu Ying had accomplished several times what she considered impossible.

Over time, this led Chu Ying to develop a strange kind of trust in him.

It seems that no matter how outrageous the statement is, as long as it is said by Yi Tian, ​​it will definitely come true.

"How do you want me to help you?"

Chu Ying stared intently at Yi Tian.

Their research institute in Wushan City has never won first place in any award competition.

If we can get it, it will be an achievement that will be recorded in the history of the research institute!

This will also greatly enhance the reputation of their research institute.

Moreover, the better the results, the more resources the higher-level research institute will provide.

In short, it is entirely beneficial and without any drawbacks.

Yi Tian stated his requirements.

1000g of diamond-grade spiritual metal.

Of course, Yi Tian wouldn't take the materials for nothing. He immediately took out a bank card with over ten million in savings and handed it to Chu Ying.

Chu Ying's path is definitely wider than mine!

Now is not the time for sentimentality.

If you need help, then seek help.

Speaking of which, the Starfire from before was also given to me by Chu Ying.

Now she's his biggest creditor!

To Yi Tian, ​​Chu Ying was a minister, but more like a caring older sister.

Thinking of this, Yi Tian suddenly paused for a moment.

Why are there so many older women around me?

Don't you have any little sisters?

Chu Ying immediately took action.

First, he used his points to pack up all 600 grams of spiritual metal remaining in the research institute.

The address was filled in as Tianling City, the hotel where the two of them would be staying tonight.

I also called friends at research institutes in other cities to inquire.

Unfortunately, they all said they didn't have it.

"I don't know who suddenly started buying up spiritual metals on a large scale."

Chu Ying frowned.

"Then we can only ask our friends in the Chamber of Commerce."

Yi Tian's eyes lit up. As expected of a minister! And friends from the Chamber of Commerce too—he'd found the right people!

Soon, a phone call was made.

Then a somewhat weathered middle-aged man's voice rang out.

"Minister Chu?"

"President Song."
