Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Little Ling Mountain.

Under Wang Ling’s guidance, Bai Qi arrived at a conference room. By the time he arrived, the conference room was already filled with about ten people. These people grouped together in twos and threes, and as Bai Qi made his appearance, all eyes turned towards him.

Some were curious, but most held a sense of resentment.

Among the resentful, Wang Yun and Li Lei were of course present. “Bai Qi, over here!”

Seeing Bai Qi emerge, Gao Cheng immediately stood and waved towards him signaling Bai Qi to join them.

“Congratulations, you’re also first in the practical assessment.”

Gao Cheng gave Bai Qi’s shoulder a slight pat, “I tried looking for you all over Little Ling Mountain, I thought you didn’t participate.”

“Ahem, I kept a low profile this time.”

Feeling somewhat guilty, Bai Qi fake-coughed a couple of times and averted Gao Cheng’s gaze.

On the way here, Wang Ling had already informed him about the situation in the practical examination.

To avoid disputes, both Chairman had fabricated an exam result placing Bai Qi as the top student.

Doing so was absolutely against the rules, but after both Chairman reported Bai Qi’s Resource Points from the previous round, no one uttered any more words.

Even if they didn’t, letting this guy proceed would probably result in him getting first place, and he might even stir up more trouble.

The examiners had no objections, but the candidates might.

While Gao Cheng and Bai Qi were chatting idly, Zhang Kai moved towards Bai Qi, extended his hand and said, “Hello, I am Zhang Kai.”

Bai Qi took note of the two rune marks on the back of Zhang Kai’s hand, shook Zhang Kai’s hand and replied, “Bai Qi. Is there anything you wanted to ask?” Zhang Kai chuckled and responded, “Being first in both rounds of examination, it’s normal for people to want to meet you, right?”

“I heard from Wang Yun that your beast is extremely powerful. I feel sorry that we didn’t encounter each other during the practical examination, but during the next ranking battle, we’re bound to cross paths. I’m looking forward to your performance.”

Upon finishing, Zhang Kai left without waiting for Bai Qi’s response, returning to the team from Lingxi City.

Did this guy come to declare war?

Gao Cheng explained, “Zhang Kai is a seed contestant from Lingxi City. He originally skipped the exam and was appointed a professional Beast Master, but it seems he came here to target us in Gusu City.”

‘However, in the first three rounds of examination, Zhang Kai was first in the theoretical examination during the second round, but was ranked second in all others, so…”

Bai Qi nodded, forming a preliminary impression of Zhang Kai.

If he’s always a close second, but still smiles so brightly, he’s either a schemer or a fool.

Considering the situation, he’s probably a schemer.

“By the way, seeing how you’re here, Gao Cheng, means you’ve passed the professional exam, right?”

A trace of a smile appeared on Gao Cheng’s face as he nodded, “Yes, finally passed it.”

Bai Qi replied, “About time. But since you understand the professional exam so well, why did it take you so many attempts to pass?”

“Ahem…”

Gao Cheng blushed in embarrassment. Han Wei, who was nearby, chimed in, “It’s because this ‘someone’ always failed the theoretical part, and was therefore eliminated after the second round.”

Seeing Han Wei exposing his weakness in front of everyone, Gao Cheng was slightly peeved and replied, “You didn’t make it past the second round for years either!”

Han Wei pouted and replied, “Don’t get me wrong, this genius has always been irst in theory. I just felt sorry seeing you alone, so I willingly gave up the third round.”

“But if you still don’t pass this year, I can’t be bothered to wait for you.

Otherwise my parents will cut off my allowance.”

As Han Wei patted Gao Cheng’s shoulder, he glanced at Wang Yun who was glaring at them. A teasing smile appeared on his face as he added, “Man, what did you do to Wang Yun? I heard she’s quite the ice beauty in Lingxi City.” Han Wei’S voice wasn’t small, and everyone in the room turned towards Bai Qi. Looking at Han Wei’s mischievous grin, Bai Qi’s eye twitched slightly.

No wonder he got along with Gao Cheng. With a mouth like that, the average person really couldn’t bear it.

Speaking of which, President Old Qin wouldn’t blame him if he beat him up during the ranking match, right?

A single sentence from Han Wei suddenly made the atmosphere in the cabin become a bit strange. Fortunately, Cui Ming and President Qin showed up at this moment, immediately attracting everyone’s attention.

Cui Ming’s expression was obviously gloomy. The candidates from Lingxi City, such as Zhang Kai, were panicked after seeing Cui Ming’s look. They all lowered their heads and didn’t dare to meet Cui Ming’s gaze directly.

Everyone present was an elite from Tainxuan High School. They all previously thought that this joint examination with Gusu City would undoubtedly result in a complete sweep, greatly boosting the prestige of Lingxi City.

Unexpectedly, the number of people from the two cities who entered the ranking battles were the same.

Although it was a tie, for them, it was as good as a loss already.

■’First of all, congratulations to all of you for passing the exams and making it into the top twenty.”

President Qin looked at the candidates in front of him with a joyful expression and said, “However, your assessments are not over yet. Show your best in the upcoming ranking matches and strive for a result that satisfies you.”

“Since this year’s exam is a joint one, and it’s with Lingxi City, the significance

of this year’s exam is particularly high.”

Feeling particularly happy for successfully embarrassing Cui Ming, President Qin added, “For this reason, the subsidies you can receive from the Society after this year’s ranking match will be double that of previous years!”

Double?

Upon hearing that the subsidy would be doubled, Bai Qi suddenly perked up.

If the original monthly average was one hundred thousand, wouldn’t doubling it mean it is now two hundred thousand a month?

If he could win the first place in the ranking battle, this steady income would instantly upgrade to a golden bowl!

Immediately, a terrifying will to fight ignited around Bai Qi, startling those nearby.

Bai Qi’s actions naturally caught everyone else’s attention. Xia Xuan had a disdainful look on his face, while Zhang Kai frowned slightly.

Although steady incomes were tempting, compared to the rankings in the ranking battle, it was not worth mentioning.

If one could win first place in the ranking match, the resources and opportunities one could get afterward would far exceed the value of these subsidies.

It could have been bearable if it was someone else, but Zhang Kai couldn’t stand Bai Qi behaving in this way.

Was he actually defeated by such a money-grubbing person?

“Ahem!”

President Qin also noticed Bai Qi’s impropriety, and lightly coughed twice to remind him to regain his composure.

Understanding this, Bai Qi immediately composed himself and returned to his seat in silence. However, in his heart, he sneered at these people.

They really did not understand the cost of life, disregarding the consumption of raising two pet beasts. Just studying the affairs of mechanical blueprints was already a burden for Bai Qi. How could it work if he didn’t seize this opportunity to make more money?

“The ranking match will begin in one hour. You can take a rest first and recover your strength.”

Cui Ming glanced at the twenty contestants in the room and left with President Qin.

“Phew- Finally, there’s something to eat. I’m starving.”

Han Wei, who had been hungry all the way, finally couldn’t help but speak up

“Lingxi City’s breakfast is famous. Shall we all go together to try it out?”

Gao Cheng nodded and turned to Bai Qi and Lu Yuan beside him, “Bai Qi, you guys coming?”

“I’m fine.”

Lu Yuan managed to fight his way into the top twenty this time, putting him in exceptional spirits. Let alone breakfast, he could eat a whole cow right now.

“No need, I brought my own food.”

Bai Qi waved his hand, took out a bottle of God’s Water, and gulped it down His hunger immediately disappeared.

He’s using God’s Water as a meal?

Now I understand why his pet beast has an energy value of t₃ooo.

Seeing Bai Qi’s extravagant meal, the candidates from Lingxi City instantly felt enlightened, adding God’s Water to their list of resources to hoard..
