Chapter 50 - 49: Friendly Competition
After checking Alpha’s status, Bai Qi summoned the Husky out again.
[Name]; Arctic Ice Wolf (Beta)
[Race]: Mechanical Engineering Department, Wolf Species (Psychic mutation)
[Growth Level]: Zero Stage Seven
[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level Elite
[Racial skills]: Mechanical Claw, Bite, Perception, Current Resistance
[Energy Value]: 1100
[Condition]: Evolvable
The Husky’s growth rate was not as significant as Alpha’s, but considering that both the Husky’s growth level and bloodline level were lower than Alpha’s, this progress was quite considerable.
Woof woof woof!
(This dog feels powerful and unstoppable!)
The doubling of the energy value made the Husky somewhat excited, and it ran towards Bai Qi’s studio with all its legs.
“How can it have so much energy?”
Seeing the Husky acting like this, Bai Qi sighed helplessly. He was about to open the electric control device, but found that the remote control was damaged, and on it, he could clearly see a canine imprint.
“Alpha, help it calm down.”
Rattle, rattle.
(Calm down?)
Alpha was a bit puzzled, but after that, it blocked the Husky’s path with a blink of an eye and landed a heavy punch on Husky’s head.
Awoooo…
(This dog has been careless; it didn’t manage to dodge…)
The Husky fell unconscious onto the ground with reluctance and was then carried back to Bai Qi by Alpha.
“Eh, I only asked you to freeze it, why did you beat it?”
Rattle, rattle.
(But that’s how they do it on the TV.)
Looking at Alpha’s innocent face, Bai Qi remained silent.
There was a need to filter the movies that Alpha watched.
Forget it, this is fine too. After all, fainting does not affect evolution.”
Bai Qi put the Husky into the Beast Control Space and evolved it again, while Alpha, as usual, went to its own training room to train.
They were both from the Undead Clan, but that bird was much stronger than he was.
Was it because it had an extra pair of wings?
Alpha thought carefully, unconsciously moving its own ribs.
Buzz, buzz, buzz…
Bai Qi reluctantly opened his sleepy eyes to pick up the phone.
“The user you dialed is on another call, please wait…”
“Bai Qi!”
President Qin’s deep voice came from the phone, immediately awakening Bai Qi.
“Mr. President, what’s the matter?”
“What’s the matter? Can you tell me what day it is?”
Bai Qi scratched his head in confusion. It was not until he saw the Haoli Cup flyer on the table that he realized what was happening.
I swear, I actually forgot about this!
Bai Qi glanced at the sun, which had almost moved to the middle of the sky, and said, “So, would it be too late for me to get there now?”
“What do you think?”
Hearing President Qin’s obviously a bit angry tone, Bai Qi was struck as if by thunder.
Did he lose the prize money just like that?!
How was he supposed to cheat?! How was he supposed to conduct research?!
Bai Qi suddenly felt that his life was plunged into darkness, while President Qin’s voice came out from the phone.
“Don’t worry, the competition hasn’t officially started yet, but if you don’t hurry up, I think it’s necessary to talk to Luo Xiang about the quota.”
Bai Qi immediately jumped up from the bed, drank a bottle of God’s Water to stop the hunger, and headed straight for the Haoli Dojo.
“Okay, I’ll be right there.”
Jiangwu District.
Haoli Dojo.
True to its name, all of Haoli Dojo’s buildings were full of strong man style. Coupled with the muscular strong men at the entrance, it felt exceptionally different in Jiangwu District, known for its water town style.
On the temporary stage in front of the dojo, eight young beast masters were seriously listening to a very muscular man’s speech.
Lu Yuan, who was feeling uncomfortable under the scorching summer sun, leaned towards Gao Cheng and asked, “Isn’t the director of the Haoli Dojo a man of character? Why can he talk so long?”
Before Gao Cheng could answer, Han Wei sneered and said, “Heh, if you knew his real name, you wouldn’t be surprised.”
“Oh.”
“The name of the director of the Haoli Dojo is Wen Ruoshui. Once he starts his speech, it’s like a long river that never runs dry. So, you better sit tight.” Han Wei glanced at the two empty spots in the center of the crowd and said, “Moreover, there are people who haven’t shown up yet. I guess we won’t start anytime soon.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan was stunned but then realized what he meant.
In order to showcase the strength of their own dojo, Haoli Dojo had invited the top five trainee Beast Masters from the probationary assessments to participate in the friendship competition.
The contestants from Haoli Dojo had arrived early, but as for the home team from Gusu City, two people hadn’t arrived yet.
One was the wealthy Xia Xuan, who probably looked down on this kind of competition; it was understandable that he didn’t show up.
The other, of course, was Bai Qi.
“How much longer do we have to endure the sun…”
Feeling the increasingly hot air around him, Lu Yuan was full of complaints. Finally, when the students of the Haoli Dojo could barely stand it any longer, Bai Qi finally arrived late.
“That guy’s finally here.”
Seeing Bai Qi appear, Gao Cheng sighed with relief. However, Han Wei looked speechless, saying, “But what the hell is up with his look? Did his beast turn against him?”
Because Bai Qi was in such a hurry to get out, he was still in a disheveled state, and with his panda-like dark circles, he looked just like someone who had been drained of energy.
But what was even more dumbfounding was, why did this guy come riding a skeleton?
“I swear, my next beast will definitely be a flying one!”
Bai Qi got off Alpha and made a secret vow.
The traffic in Gusu City was really moving. If it weren’t for his prompt decision to let Alpha carry him on the road, God knows where he would be stuck right now.
Bai Qi stood in his assigned place, and Gao Cheng whispered, “Why did you come so late, Bai Qi, and… you are… is everything okay?”
“It’s okay, I just haven’t slept well lately.”
Bai Qi yawned and looked at Wen Ruoshui, who was still delivering his speech, and said, “How long has this big guy been talking? When will the competition start?”
Out of curiosity about new things, Bai Qi had been tirelessly evolving his two pets for the past three days, which led to the fatigue that even the God’s Water couldn’t erase.
“The time is almost up. Once again, thank you all for coming. Now, our competition will officially begin.”
Seeing Bai Qi arrive, Wen Ruoshui finally stopped the speech and began to announce the rules for this competition.
“In order to fully demonstrate the strength of all you young talents, this friendship competition will not follow the traditional 1VS1 match but will be a gauntlet match..”
