Beast Tamer: I'm invincible because I can see the evolution path!

Chapter 103 A thoroughly enjoyable holy light saliva bath! President Huang's favoritism and corruption?

Qiao Bai: ...I feel a little bit tired.

Or just pretend you don't know anything.

I looked up.

Qiao Bai met four pairs of bright, piercing eyes.

Oh no.

And we should also add the Holy Light Sunflower over there... okay, the Holy Light Sunflower.

Five pairs.

New Moon Club Team, NY City.

Upon returning to the club's training ground from Qiao Bai's laboratory, a large crowd immediately gathered around him.

"Hey, did you guys get any inside information from that young, genius professor you went to today? Is that supernatural creature he's working on really that amazing?"

"Actually, I really wanted to go see it too... but unfortunately I've already contracted my second pet, and I'm still choosing my third! What a missed opportunity!"

"Wait a minute? Where's Zheng Zhi? Why didn't he come back with you? Could it be...?"

As they talked, the group of reserve team members in the training field quieted down.

His eyes held a variety of complex emotions.

"...I never expected that Zheng Zhi, that guy who's never said a word, would be so lucky to be selected. He'll definitely be working with us from now on..."

"Good luck my ass." Before the previous person could finish their sarcastic remark, the hot-tempered Xin Yan rolled her eyes at them.

Team members: "?"

kindness?

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately.

Do you think they don't know Xin Yan's explosive temper?

It tastes like a delicious melon.

Xin Yan was instantly surrounded by a group of people, many of whom were not interested in Xin Yan and Xiao Pang's itinerary and were just there to join in the fun.

Men, huh?

When people start gossiping, women have nothing to do with it.

A group of people winked and chattered, eager to get inside information from Xin Yan. Even Little Fatty, who didn't want to get involved, was dragged in.

"Hey! Bro! Bro! Big brother, calm down! I'm scared!" Little Fatty quickly raised his hands: "I signed a confidentiality agreement, I can't say anything before Professor Qiao makes a public announcement!"

"My good brothers wouldn't want to see me, Little Fatty, suspended, would they!"

Little Fatty shouted loudly.

As soon as the words "confidentiality agreement" were mentioned, the big guys who had been crowding around quieted down.

Look at Little Fatty, then look at Xin Yan's sullen expression, which didn't contradict Little Fatty's meaning... Okay, this confidentiality agreement is real.

Everyone was disappointed.

Okay.

Fresh gossip is no longer available.

If Little Fatty and his friends dare to say it out loud, they should be prepared to be caught red-handed and could end up in serious trouble.

Xin, who had forgotten the confidentiality agreement and was about to say something, was jolted awake by Little Fatty's words. Yan: "..."

angry.

depressed.

It's not Little Fatty's fault.

Little Fatty was only speaking up for his own good.

After grumbling for a while, Xin Yan could only manage to squeeze out, "Anyway, it's not a good thing, and it wasted my entire morning of training time."

"That Zheng Zhi guy... he must have lost his mind to believe such a liar. He's got something wrong with his head!"

The more Xin Yan talked, the angrier she became.

The people around looked at each other in bewilderment.

Hmm... I sense something subtle.

Xin Yan doesn't seem to have a good impression of Professor Qiao Bai?

However, no one dared to make a hasty judgment or evaluation of whose fault it was.

Well, how should I put it?

Xin Yan is indeed quite sharp-tongued and arrogant, but his strength is indeed quite good. He not only managed to contract a Flame Demon Dragon cub with his own strength, but also raised it quite well.

Because the Flame Demon Dragon is a dragon-type pet, its growth cycle is slow, resulting in Xin Yan's Flame Demon Dragon having the lowest level among all the reserve team members' pets.

Thanks to her excellent teamwork and skillful use of abilities with the Flame Demon Dragon, Xin Yan maintained an impressive 80% win rate in battles.

His criticisms and insults are always insightful and to the point, not just pointless venting.

Everyone has a basic understanding of Xin Yan... If he really dislikes someone, that person must have some flaws or problems in terms of strength.

So, regarding Qiao Bai's matter... we all look at each other, not daring to speak or ask.

Little Fatty sighed.

This whole thing is getting out of hand... "Don't overthink it, okay? Brother Yan isn't a professor of pet evolution, so it's perfectly normal that he can't accept those wildly imaginative ideas right now, isn't it?"

"Although this overly young Professor Qiao Bai does indeed have an excessively wild and unconventional way of thinking," the chubby boy said, nodding seriously to shift the focus of the argument.

Upon hearing this, the others...

Seems fine?

Professor Pet's strange ideas... Thinking about the bizarre requirements in the evolutionary paths of some extraordinary creatures, it seems understandable now?

Xin Yan glared at the chubby boy.

They'll just try to smooth things over.

"Hmph! That liar said he could see results within a month, right? Well, I'll wait and see what he can come up with in a month!" Even with Little Fatty mediating, Xin Yan is Xin Yan, a wild horse that has broken free of its reins, and Little Fatty can't easily hold him back.

Fatty: ...Ah, let him be.

He's just a cute, chubby kid who wants world peace and for people to get along well with each other. Why make things so difficult for him?

Moreover... it was indeed Qiao Bai who said it himself that it would take a month.

This gave Xin Yan the opportunity to seize the opportunity.

Little Fatty decided not to make up for it.

So be it.

As long as Xin Yan is happy.

As for what happens if Professor Qiao Bai doesn't produce any results a month later... well, that's not something he needs to worry about.

Seeing that there was no more gossip to share, the teammates gradually dispersed.

Ouch.

They can wait a mere month.

……

The first day back.

Xin Yan would occasionally make dissing remarks about Qiao Bai and criticize Zheng Zhi for being mentally challenged.

The day after I returned.

Xin Yan continued to relentlessly criticize Qiao Bai, and everyone in the Crescent Moon Club had heard about it and was quite curious.

Every now and then, someone would come to Xin Yan to inquire about the love-hate relationship between him and Qiao Bai.

The projects with confidentiality agreements can't be discussed, but surely you can talk about how the two of you ended up clashing?

Then Xin Yan dissed them all.

"Who do you think you are? Do you think I need to tell you a story? Do you make keys? How many keys do you make?" Xin Yan's sweeping generalizations were indiscriminate, or rather, in his view, anyone who came to him was just asking for trouble.

The third day after returning.

Because Xin Yan and Zheng Zhi shared a dorm room, he had been alone for the past few days. Whenever he saw the empty bed opposite him, he would think of the two extraordinary creatures that Qiao Bai had shown them that day, and the words that Qiao Bai had calmly and confidently used to "fool" them.

Xin Yan's anger doubled.

During training, the output speed increased, and the main focus was on venting anger by beating up opponents.

Then... he was caught off guard by a minor flaw in the details, and the other side turned the tables and beat him up.

The Balrog cub also let out a pitiful "Awoooooo" whimper.

In the end, not only did he fail to vent his anger, he also gained a new bellyful of anger.

Xin Yan: ╬!

I wish I hadn't gone to Qiao Bai's lab that day.

If he hadn't known about this, Xin Yan felt he definitely wouldn't have been affected by such emotions for several days in a row, causing him to underperform.

The fourth day after returning.

Just when Xin Yan thought his feelings would last for almost a month... he heard the sound of a lock being opened coming from outside his dormitory room in the morning.

Xin Yan: "?"

Xin Yan: "!"

Suddenly opening his eyes, Xin Yan and his roommate, Zheng Zhi, who had disappeared for three days, stared at each other.

"Hmph!" Xin Yan was taken aback for a moment, then let out a disdainful snort from his nose: "It's only been a few days and you're back already? What, you've realized how outrageous that fraudulent professor's words were?"

Then Xin Yan sat up straight on the bed, his red hair still messy, arms crossed, and said coldly, "Ready to come back for training?"

"You've fallen behind in your training quite a bit. Now that you know he's a fraud, you'd better hurry up and..."

"Um..." Zheng Zhi scratched his cheek a few times with his fingers, and said in a low voice with an embarrassed look, "Well... I came back to get some clothes. I'll be staying in the lab for a few more days."

With Xin Yan's dark expression on his face, Zheng Zhi sneaked into his dormitory like a thief and frantically rummaged through his wardrobe.

They didn't dare to lift their heads.

Feeling the intense gaze of Xin Yan fixed on his back, Zheng Zhi felt as if he were being roasted through a layer of cloth.

Zheng Zhi: It's embarrassing, it's really embarrassing.

After quickly packing his gear and carrying a large bag of his belongings, Zheng Zhi turned around and prepared to leave.

Before leaving the dormitory, Zheng Zhi looked back at Xin Yan one last time.

With a raised eyebrow from Xin Yan, Zheng Zhi quickly spoke.

"Brother Yan, you should...stop talking bad about Professor Qiao."

"Professor Qiao's experiment has been successful. Next, I will cooperate with Professor Qiao to test the extraordinary creature created by the fusion of Dou Dou Hua and Meng Hun Ling."

After saying that, Zheng Zhi didn't give Xin Yan any time to ask questions and slipped out as quickly as if he were walking on a watermelon rind.

Xin Yan: "?"

After regaining his senses, Xin Yan repeated what Zheng Zhi had just said, his face filled with deep confusion.

No?

and many more?

What did Zheng Zhi just say?

Or did he mishear?

Did Zheng Zhi really come back today?

Or was he just too angry these past few days, which is why he had such a strange daydream?

Xin Yan felt like his brain's CPU was about to be burned out.

No.

It won't run.

Xin Yan lay down again in a daze, pulled the blanket over her head, and closed her eyes.

Yep.

He must not be fully awake yet.

I'll feel better after another nap.

……

Dongzhou City Beast Taming Alliance.

"President Ding, isn't the approved funding far too little?" In the office, a tall, slender man frowned as he looked at Ding Yuan, the president of the Beast Taming Alliance of Dongzhou City, who was sitting behind his desk. His face was full of impatience, arrogance, and displeasure.

Even the refined-looking Ding Yuan frowned upon hearing this: "Have some self-awareness. Look at the project you applied for this time."

"A new evolutionary path for ancient bird monsters?"

"Putting everything else aside, just ask yourself, how many beast tamers can you find who have made contracts with ancient bird monsters?"

The ancient bird monster is a rare and extraordinary creature that has no juvenile stage and is born as the ruler of the sky.

Defeating an ancient strange bird is no easy task.

Not to mention researching new evolutionary paths for ancient birds... At least the most famous known ancient bird tamer is Mr. Jundu, an eighth-tier beast tamer.

Secondly, there is the seventh-tier beast tamer, Ms. Blue Wind Chime.

Besides.

I haven't heard of anyone making a contract with an ancient strange bird yet.

after all.

Wild and untamed ancient birds also have the habit of eating their defeated opponents.

Whether it's a person or a pet, ancient strange birds will eat them without hesitation.

Cruel and savage.

Those who lack the necessary skills wouldn't dare risk their lives to take on a job they're not qualified for.

What do we use to study ancient birds? Our lives?

"I only approved eight million in research funding because the results of your last project were quite good. Otherwise, I would have rejected this project outright," Ding Yuan said coldly. "Know when to stop, understand?"

"I don't understand." The man leaned back on the sofa, arms crossed, looking annoyed. "What's wrong with researching some ancient strange bird? As long as we have money, we can hire more people, or even a seventh-level beast tamer. We can catch one eventually!"

"If Blue Wind Chime can do it alone, what can't I do with a few more seventh-tier beast tamers?"

Ding Yuan's forehead veins throbbed as he listened.

There are differences between seventh-tier beast tamers, okay?

Is Lan Fengling just an ordinary seventh-tier beast tamer?

She comes from a prestigious family; her ancestors for eight generations were all top-tier beast tamers, breeders, and pet professors—she's a top-tier heiress.

That took countless resources, regardless of the resource consumption... to finally successfully contract an ancient strange bird?

What do they have to compete with others?

Ding Yuan rolled his eyes: "According to your logic, even if I approved 80 million for you, it wouldn't be enough!"

No joke.

Eighty million can barely be considered a highly valued research project.

Generally speaking, projects with the best regional resources receive approved funding starting at nine figures.

"It won't be 80 million, but it should be at least 30 million each." The man waved his hand and said shamelessly, "I used my connections to hire two seventh-tier beast tamers at a relatively cheap price, and I've already found the ancient strange birds I want."

"No matter how powerful an ancient mythical bird is, even if it's born a ruler of the skies, its strength must be greatly reduced during childbirth, right?"

"If we seize the opportunity and strike, there's an 80% chance we can successfully capture that ancient strange bird!"

He said it with absolute certainty.

Upon hearing this, Ding Yuan felt that it made some sense and he was beginning to be persuaded.

It seems this research topic isn't just a joke.

"Thirty million won't do, twenty million is the most I can approve for you," Ding Yuan said after thinking for a moment.

"Huh? It's only ten million, what's there to discuss? What's the difference between giving me thirty million and twenty million?" the man said unhappily. "Since when has our alliance become so stingy with even ten million in funding?"

Ding Yuan opened his mouth, as if to say something.

The man continued, "I've heard from other sources that they're doing some kind of research project on tofu pudding in New York City again? They're even researching dream spirits together?"

"Their alliance leader even approved it!"

"President Ding, you can't possibly be worse than the president next door, can you?"

Ding Yuan: "!"

Dou Dou Hua (Tofu Pudding)?

Dream Soul Spirit?

grass.

Ding Yuan's face instantly darkened.

"What the hell is that bastard surnamed Huang doing?!" Ding Yuan slammed his hand on the table, his face turning completely black. "He got some small successes last year, and now he's getting cocky?!"

As they talked...

Ding Yuan's tone carried a hint of gritted teeth.

Why is he so stingy with even this ten million in funding?

That's because neighboring New York City stole the lion's share!

The funds allocated to each provincial Beast Taming Alliance are limited; if one province receives more, its neighboring provinces may receive less.

The Beast Taming Alliance of Dongzhou City unfortunately encountered such a situation.

Originally, Dongzhou City and NY City had similar achievements and results each year. Their scores on the 100-point scale were around 60 or 70, with little difference between them, and the funding they received each year was also roughly the same.

You have a little more this year.

I'll have more next year.

of course.

Both sides are unhappy, and if given the chance, they will definitely try to gain the upper hand.

Then... at the end of last year, a rising genius suddenly appeared in New York City.

New York City is making a strong comeback in the later stages.

He scored 90 points on a test that he usually only gets 60 or 70 points on.

Dongzhou City still scores in the 60s or 70s.

Can these be the same?

The city of New York instantly received a large sum of money.

Conversely, a portion of Dongzhou City's funds was diverted to New York City.

Ding Yuan: Displeased.jpg

Despite his displeasure, Ding Yuan couldn't find fault with it.

The things Qiao Bai did are all clearly laid out there.

The wave of gratitude from Professor Wu Qingshan during the Spring Festival Gala was not something that could be obtained simply because of a good relationship; it was all proof of Qiao Bai's solid abilities.

Ding Yuan could only silently sulk in his heart.

Why isn't Qiao Bai a beast tamer in Dongzhou City?

Otherwise, he would be the one smiling from ear to ear this year!

then……

Listen, listen, listen?

What is that bastard surnamed Huang doing?

"We can talk about your matter later. I'll contact him right now!" Ding Yuan couldn't wait a second longer and slammed his hand on the table as he stood up.

After taking two steps, Ding Yuan stopped and turned to look at the man sitting on the sofa: "Do you have more concrete evidence?"

"We must take this seriously, lest the kid deny it later!"

"Is this how you're supposed to waste the alliance's resources?!"

"Accurate, with real witness testimony," the man said lazily. "I'll give you the contact information. Once you've confirmed this, please approve my funding as soon as possible, okay?"

Ding Yuan thought for a moment and agreed: "Submit all the documents, including the information about the ancient strange bird you discovered was pregnant, and I'll approve it."

"Troublesome," the man complained.

Ding Yuan took the contact information, completely ignoring the trivial complaints.

It's one thing for him to want to cause trouble for Huangzhou, but he still has to follow all the proper procedures; that's a matter of rules.

……

If Xin Yan felt like she was dreaming...

Huang Zhou, who was summoned by Qiao Bai and informed that the research had been successful, was questioning his life choices.

His eyes were almost turning into question marks.

He drove the Snow Wolf at breakneck speed through the city and arrived at Qiao Bai's laboratory at top speed.

Huang Zhou looked Qiao Bai up and down, left and right, front and back, as if he were looking at some reincarnated deity or a saint descending to earth.

It's only been a few days.

Including Qiao Bai's return from the forbidden area of ​​Dongzhou City, the distribution of flyers, and the final selection... the whole process took at most a week.

A week?

This led to the discovery of a completely new type of attack?

is that a lie!

However, when Huang Zhou thought that the person in front of him was Qiao Bai, he felt that the person was more credible. Qiao Bai had never disappointed him in this respect.

Huangzhou's heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and lungs are all itchy right now.

He really couldn't understand how Qiao Bai managed to come up with a new evolution method for Dou Dou Hua's dream spirit in just one week, using only a research budget of one million.

"You really figured it out?" Because the snow wolf was so fast, Huangzhou was panting heavily as he spoke: "Let me see, quick, let me see!"

Huang Zhou, panting heavily, reached out his hand shakily to Qiao Bai, as if he were about to collapse at any moment.

No matter how much you think about it, it won't work.

seeing is believing!

He wants to see the real thing!

Qiao Bai: "...Be prepared mentally."

Huangzhou: "?"

"What kind of mental preparation?" Huang Zhou frowned, asking in confusion, "Is there something wrong with our evolution?"

Qiao Bai shook his head and waved to Zheng Zhi: "Release the Holy Light Sunflower."

Qiao Bai finished speaking.

Of the people present, apart from Huang Zhou, who had never seen the Holy Light Sunflower, the other four researchers and Zheng Zhi himself all had complicated and strange expressions.

Huangzhou silently typed a question mark again.

What kind of reaction is this?

Why do they all look so strange?

"Holy Light Sunflower...is that the name you gave to the extraordinary creature that evolved from the fusion of Tofu Flower and Dream Spirit?" Huang Zhou asked with considerable interest, "Why Holy Light Sunflower? Isn't the fusion of Tofu Flower and Dream Spirit supposed to be... Sunflower?"

Although it is said to be a combination and special evolution of Doudouhua and Menghunling.

However, Huangzhou had some idea of ​​what was going on.

This should still be considered as a backward deduction of Sunflower's evolutionary path.

Claiming that it was a fusion evolution of Dou Dou Hua and Meng Hun Ling was also a way to get some funding approved for Qiao Bai.

Unexpectedly... Huangzhou discovered that things weren't quite as they seemed.

"Uncle Huang, you'll see when you see it." Unlike the researchers under his command, Qiao Bai, who had already accepted reality, kept a very composed expression, showing no sign of anything strange.

He waved to Zheng Zhi again, and Zheng Zhi immediately understood what Qiao Bai meant.

There was no hesitation or indecision.

Zheng Zhi released the evolved Holy Light Sunflower.

Huang Zhou stared at the pitch-black horse-like creature before him, a supernatural being that seemed to have crawled out of a dark forest, and fell into a silent coma.

Look at the eyes swaying left and right, the blackish-purple leaves waving at him, and the ghost face in the big plate making an even more frightening face at him. Huang Zhou's head felt like it had been hit hard with a ton-sized sledgehammer.

Blank.

My eyes feel dizzy.

After a long while, Huang Zhou finally managed to find his voice: "...You told me...what's this called?"

Huang Zhou shakily extended his finger, pointing to the extraordinary creature before him... a magical monster-like being, and asked in a weak voice.

"Holy Light Sunflower".

Qiao Bai remained calm, his voice steady and unperturbed.

You can't even handle this?

Qiao Bai wanted to replicate the feeling of being overwhelmed by the string of "sunshine" descriptions from last night.

pity.

Further research on the Holy Light Sunflower has not yet begun, and Qiao Bai cannot explain how he knows those things, so he can only wait and see.

The goal is to create an entire universe in one fell swoop when the combined evolution of Doudouhua and Menghunling is revealed!

Huangzhou remained silent.

An outbreak occurred in Huangzhou.

"Holy Light Sunflower?" He pointed at the magical monster before him, his teeth turning into shark teeth as he roared, his expression completely out of control: "This is it? The Holy Light Sunflower? Where's the Holy Light?!"

"The Holy Light resides in my heart," Qiao Bai said calmly.

Huangzhou: "Hey! There's a limit to how much you can go on using memes!"

"I'm not kidding, the Holy Light really is in my heart." As he spoke, Qiao Bai gave Zheng Zhi a look and said, "Here, let the Holy Light Sunflower help Uncle Huang's snow wolf recover some stamina."

Huang Zhou was about to shout, "Don't do weird things to my pet!"

He hadn't even had a chance to say it.

"Holy Light Disc Disk Disk".

The Sunflower jumped up.

Its movements resembled those of a stiff, hopping zombie. When it was still a meter away from the snow wolf, the bright yellow petals around the Saint Light Sunflower's large face—the only part of its body that wasn't poisonous—trembled a few times... and then lit up.

The giant ghost face in the very center of the large face plate was spitting out blackish-purple, steaming holy water in the direction of the snow wolf with a "pfft pfft" sound.

Snow Wolf: "..."

The snow wolf wanted to retreat.

However, the yellow holy light seemed to have a binding effect, and the snow wolf was completely unable to move under the "holy light".

The snow wolf's eyes held a human-like disgust and a desire to die... It just watched helplessly as the dark purple saliva... oh no, holy water, "whoosh" landed on its flowing, smooth fur.

The snow wolf's eyes were completely dead.

Snow Wolf: ＿|￣|○

It's dirty.

It was completely filthy.

Then, in the next second... the dark purple "holy water" was absorbed at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving no trace of color on the snow wolf.

In contrast, the snow wolf looks more energetic, with smoother and shinier fur, making it appear as if it's shimmering.

Huang Zhou, standing to the side: "?"

Huang Zhou blinked.

Huang Zhou blinked again, hesitated, and finally couldn't help but ask, "...This is...a magical saliva bath...?"

In the end, Huang Zhou himself couldn't help but close his eyes in anguish.

"What saliva bath? This is the Holy Light Sunflower's dispelling skill. It can use holy light to help other pets dispel negative effects, including but not limited to fatigue and poisoning." Qiao Bai laughed. "We don't have time to try more yet. We'll talk about it after we've tried them all."

Huang Zhou opened his mouth, his expression complex.

He really wanted to tell Qiao Bai to stop messing with other extraordinary beings.

But the thought of the effects of that holy light and saliva... well, holy water, made Huang Zhou's heart flutter.

What does it mean that it can dispel fatigue and poisoning?

Fatigue is a negative state in which the mind affects the body.

Poisoning is a physical injury.

A single skill like [Holy Light Disk Powder] can heal... If used properly, it's an absolute god-tier skill!

The effect might not be noticeable in regular matches.

However, in the war against the beast tide... this is definitely a powerful weapon for our side!

...Although the way the skills were used was a bit off-putting.

A tiny fraction.

It's really just a tiny bit.

Overcoming the psychological and visual harm caused by this... shouldn't be too difficult, right?

After dispelling the light, the Holy Sunflower gathered the LED-like holy light emanating from its bright yellow petals, and the flower stem happily swayed left and right with its large face.

The snow wolf, finally able to move, frantically shook its body... to no avail.

The holy water has been perfectly absorbed.

Snow Wolf's face darkened.

"Uncle Huang, you can feel it for yourself; Snow Wolf is definitely in top condition right now," Qiao Bai said with a smile. "Or we could use equipment for a more direct examination."

Huang Zhou waved his hand and said, "Then let's get the equipment."

Snow Wolf looked at Huangzhou with an incredulous expression.

You son of a bitch... not only did you not take me to take a shower, but you also put me in that machine. What are you trying to do?

"Wolf King, you're sacrificing yourself for the future of the pet world. Hurry up and go in, don't dawdle." Huang Zhou kicked the snow wolf in the rear, showing no sportsmanship whatsoever, and kicked the snow wolf directly into the testing equipment.

The snow wolf still wanted to cause some trouble.

Turning my head, I was immediately confronted with Saint Light Sunflower's large face covered in a ghostly mask.

The bright yellow petals opened and closed, and two large leaves on the flower stem, one on the left and one on the right, excitedly greeted the wolf king.

"nya~"

Oops~

Your beast tamer kicked me!

I'll help you with your treatment.

Snow Wolf: "..."

The snow wolf, in a flurry of activity and with its limbs uncoordinated, tumbled and crawled into the testing equipment.

"Pfft—" Huang Zhou couldn't help but let out a snicker from the side.

Snow Wolf gave Huangzhou a look, letting Huangzhou figure it out himself.

You should savor it carefully.

Old Deng!

Believe it or not, we'll hurt each other next time!

Huang Zhou immediately raised his hands in surrender.

However, the values ​​of the snow wolf's current physical condition displayed on the instrument really shocked Huangzhou.

"This data..." Huang Zhou stared intently at the lines on the screen that indicated the Snow Wolf was in peak physical condition, even better than after rest, treatment, maintenance, and care. He couldn't help but let out a loud exclamation.

Awesome!

This dispel effect is absolutely amazing!

How could it possibly improve the snow wolf's physical condition to its best in such a short time?

What saliva?

That is the Holy Light!

Holy light was in his eyes and in his heart!

Qiao Bai gave Huang Zhou another knowing look.

Huang Zhou made a gesture towards Qiao Bai.

Understand.

I understand perfectly.

I understand it better than anyone else.

"Can this evolutionary method be confirmed?" Huang Zhou asked impatiently.

Qiao Bai: "I don't have any problems on my end... The problem now is that there aren't that many Dream Souls. Whether we can find a Dream Soul population in the forbidden area of ​​Dongzhou City is the most important thing for the future of this experiment."

Huang Zhou: "Let's spread the word about this ability that Dou Dou Hua and Meng Hun Ling have evolved into! Let's see if they're interested!"

"No rush." ​​Qiao Bai waved his hand. "There are still many abilities of the Holy Light Sunflower that haven't been explored yet. Let's find the Dream Soul Spirit in the Forbidden Land of the Eastern Continent first. I'll continue to study and confirm the Holy Light Sunflower's abilities."

"Then I wrote a paper report."

"Once we have other dream spirits, we can immediately conduct new confirmation experiments based on this."

"OK." Huang Zhou had no objections: "I'll help you contact Dongzhou City."

Huangzhou paused for a moment as he spoke.

Qiao Bai glanced at Huang Zhou: "Uncle Huang, is there a problem?"

"Ah..." Huang Zhou chuckled, "It's not a big problem, it's just that my relationship with that old dog from the Beast Taming Alliance in Dongzhou City... is a little bit not so good."

As he spoke, Huangzhou waved his hand again.

"It's not a big problem."

"This isn't just a personal matter for me; it's a major news story involving the national level, concerning the survival of tens of thousands of beast tamers and ordinary people!"

"Even if that old dog wants to trip me up, I doubt he'd dare to act recklessly after he knows the whole story!"

Huang Zhou stood tall and proud, his face beaming with arrogance.

Don't ask.

The question is about the confidence in soft power that Qiao Bai brought him.

It's amazing when your own geniuses are so talented!

To Huang Zhou's surprise, when he made a phone call to the neighbor's house, before he could even speak, the person on the other end launched into a tirade against him.

Huangzhou, who was inexplicably greeted with a torrent of criticism the moment the call connected: "?"

"What? Ding Laogou, what are you doing? Have you eaten gunpowder or something?!" Huang Zhou waved his hand at Qiao Bai, then turned around and started yelling at the person on the other end of the phone with a displeased look: "What do you mean by that?"

"What do I mean? I haven't even asked you what you mean yet!" Ding Yuan on the other end of the phone remained completely calm.

Ding Yuan glanced at the young man named Sha Yi whom he had found, and then thought about the information he had just received from him. He became energetic and took the moral high ground: "If you hadn't called me, I was going to call you anyway. I just want to ask you, what's wrong with you that you agreed to Dou Dou Hua's new research on evolution?"

"And dream spirits?"

"Have you lost your mind?!"

Huang Zhou: "Huh? Where did you know that? Everyone on my side signed confidentiality agreements."

Huang Zhou blinked, not understanding where the news had been leaked from.

Qiao Bai, on the other hand, showed a thoughtful expression.

The Beastmasters invited by NY City to assist in this matter have all signed confidentiality agreements, but what about the previous companions?

Narrowing the scope further, Qiao Bai instantly guessed the true identity of the leaker.

"Good heavens, I didn't expect you to actually admit it." Ding Yuan was shocked, his eyes widening.

While saying he couldn't believe it, he was already rapidly operating the call recording function: "Let's not even talk about how the Dream Soul Spirit has been extinct for hundreds or thousands of years. Even if it did appear, it wouldn't have much research value."

"Don't you know enough about the farce surrounding the research into a new evolutionary direction for tofu pudding?"

"How much money has the alliance poured into DouDouHua's new evolutionary direction? Have you even heard a splash?"

"No! Not a single one!"

"Yes, the Alliance hasn't officially banned research on tofu pudding, but you're still pouring money into it. What, do you have too much funding to spend?!"

Ding Yuan hurled his insults to his heart's content.

He believed that every word he said was reasonable and that he had absolutely no intention of taking the opportunity to retaliate against Huangzhou.

Sha Yi, who was standing to the side, also showed a relieved expression on his face.

Correct!

That's it!

Let them all be utterly disgraced!

Huang Zhou rolled his eyes on the other end of the phone.

Ah... He glanced at the eye-catching Holy Light Sunflower not far away, and then at the Snow Wolf who was quietly nestled inside the testing equipment and refused to come out.

Huang Zhou had mixed feelings.

For some reason, my brain still had time to wander off and think... Hmm, Qiao Bai used to release his two pets wherever he went, but now he's not releasing them. Could it be because he's afraid of the Holy Light Sunflower's Holy Light Saliva Bath attack?

Based on his reasoning and evidence, Huang Zhou felt he had guessed the truth.

While Huang Zhou was distracted, Ding Yuan's incessant chatter continued from the other end of the phone.

"...Even if the person who applied for this project is that little genius from your NY city, what you're doing is still wrong!"

"This is blatant favoritism and corruption!"

"If you don't repent, don't blame me for reporting you!"

"If you ask me, you shouldn't spoil young people. What teenagers need most at this age is proper guidance, not indulgence. You're only hurting them and yourself!"

Huang Zhou rolled his eyes.

So what if he indulges Qiao Bai?

He wished he could indulge Qiao Bai even more!

"If you're envious, just say so. Don't keep babbling on here. I just think your jealous face is really ugly." Huang Zhou's words instantly silenced Ding Yuan, who had been rambling on for a long time.

Ding Yuan remained silent for three seconds.

Ding Yuan erupted.

"Did you hear what I said? This isn't jealousy! It's a matter of attitude, a matter of awareness!"

"Instead of wasting time researching things that are impossible to research, it's better to invest more time and energy in useful things and not waste it..."

"Oh, then there's no need to worry," Huang Zhou interrupted Ding Yuan's lecturing with a cold expression. "We've already figured something out."

Ding Yuan: "?"

Ding Yuan: "???"

"Are you kidding me?!" Ding Yuan roared on the other end of the phone.

The vibrations made Huangzhou's ears hurt.

Huang Zhou held the phone a little further away, cleaned his ear, and instead of putting it back to his ear, he put the phone on speakerphone and placed it on the table.

"Why would I joke with you like that? I'm serious, I've figured something out." Huang Zhou crossed his arms, his voice calm yet serious, making Ding Yuan on the other end of the phone hesitate.

No...no way?

"How long has your experiment been going on? A month?" Ding Yuan asked hesitantly, his tone uncertain.

I don't think so.

Even if he wasn't well-informed, it couldn't have been that he was so out of touch that it took him more than a month to learn about the news from other professors.

"Not a month, at most a week!" The speaker was none other than the anxious Sha Yi.
