Songlin City.
The headquarters of the Association.
Assembly hall.
“I finally got through the first evaluation. If I hadn’t passed, the teacher would have given me a beating for sure.”
Zhou Yan looked at her grade report and let out a sigh of relief.
Combat, runes, resource management, pet beast breeding, ferocious beast theory, and comprehensive. There were six exams in total, and she only got an excellent grade in combat; the rest were merely passable.
However, Zhou Yan was more than content.
Zhou Yan happily put away her grade report, then turned to look at Bai Qiucha and the others. “Cha, did you pass?”
Bai Qiucha shook her head a little shamefacedly and said, “It seems I really don’t have a talent for runes. I’ll need to spend more time on it.
“Oh, it’s okay, runes are Qing’er’s responsibility anyway, it’s okay if we just
have a rudimentary understanding.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan slapped Bai Qiucha’s shoulder hard. She then glanced at Bai Qiucha’s grade report, but she was lost for words.
Combat – excellent, runes – good, resource management – excellent, pet beast breeding – excellent, ferocious beast theory – excellent, comprehensive – excellent.
You call this lack of talent?
Zhou Yan’s eye twitched slightly. She looked around and saw that Bai Yuxiao and Gu Shan had all avoided her gaze.
“Don’t bother looking. Among these people, except you, the worst is also
good.”
Lu Qing adjusted her glasses and said, “You should be grateful. This time, the rune exam was supervised by Teacher Zhang. If it was Instructor Luo, I highly doubt you could even pass.”
“Qing’er, do you have to hurt your own girlfriend like this?”
Zhou Yan dropped her head in dejection, not knowing how to retort. But she , quickly cheered herself up, “Never mind, as long as I got through this time, it’s fine. It’s still uncertain when Instructor Luo will return.
“It’s not necessarily.”
Xiao Yuan pointed at the screen in the center of the assembly hall. It was currently displaying the points obtained by everyone after the first examination.
“First place: Bai Qi, 18300.”
“Second place: Xiao Yuan, 10240.”
“Third place: Bai Qiucha, 9980.”
“Fourth place:…”
The rankings of Xiao Yuan, Bai Qiucha, and the others were quite normal, almost consistent with their performances these past days, but the first place was a bit beyond their expectations.
“Bai Qi went on a mission with Instructor Luo, didn’t he? How did he get so many points?”
Zhou Yan stared at the leaderboard blankly, clearly having trouble accepting it.
“Bai Qi’s mission this time was approved by the chairman himself, so his performance on it counts towards the exam.
Xiao Yuan smiled and said, “Before the exam, I noticed that Bai Qi’s points were still the same as when he left. Now that they’ve changed, it must mean that Bai
Qi has returned.”
Having said that, Xiao Yuan paused and added, “So unless something unexpected happened, Instructor Luo has also returned.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan immediately waved her hand and said, “Let’s talk about Instructor Luo later. Even if it was an external mission, Bai Qi’s score is too high. Did he blow up ferocious beasts or uncover secrets?
“During the training period, all points are supervised by the lords of the Six
Towers and all instructors. There can be no mistake.”
Lu Qing glanced at the screen and said, “But I am also curious about what Bai Qi did to earn so many points.”
Zhou Yan and the others had an “aha” moment. Then, a thought occurred to her, “Where is Bai Qi?”
Tower of Decision.
Upon hearing Luo Xiang’s report, Zhao Futu had a smile on his face.
“So it was just a seal-type secret realm, Old Fu must be pissed.
Luo Xiang shrugged and said, “Not necessarily. Although it’s not the Emperor’s Secret Realm, the value of the Champion Marquis’ Secret Realm isn’t small either. And the focus of the Thirteenth Bureau doesn’t seem to be on this secret realm.”
“How so?”
Luo Xiang said, “As the head of the special assault team of the Thirteenth Bureau, Yi Yu only appeared at the very beginning and was not seen afterwards. Considering his pet beast, he must have made some other discoveries.” “Yi Yu, huh? A beast with the gift of fate is indeed convenient, but the price is not small.”
Zhao Futu thought for a moment and said, “What about our side, what did we gain?”
“Aside from the ancient farm we found at the beginning, the ancient library we later found could barely be considered a gain. However, decoding will take some time; I’ve already sent everything to the Tower of Knowledge.” “Once everything is decoded, it should help us understand the history of that year.”
Zhao Futu nodded and then, as if something had occurred to him, said, “What about Bai Qi? I see you gave him quite a high evaluation. Leng Feifei has come to find me twice already. Has this lad caused a ruckus again?”
With a smile, Luo Xiang replied, “No ruckus, but he has made quite a stir. At least he has overshadowed the younger generations on both sides.” Having said that, Luo Xiang briefly described Bai Qi’s performance in the Emperor’s Secret Realm. Zhao Futu immediately burst out laughing, completely forgetting his dignity.
“I knew this kid was trouble wherever he went, but absorbing the Blood of
Death, he really has good luck.”
Luo Xiang nodded and said, “Indeed, Bai Qi’s main pet had already grasped the power of Withering before, and with the help of the Green Dragon Scale, he was able to survive. Otherwise, even if Mechanical Legend were there, Bai Qi would be in for some trouble.”
“So, your high appraisal and hush money for Bai Qi…?
Luo Xiang gave a sheepish smile, saying, “That’s because the Blood of Death was accidentally released by me. If I didn’t give some compensation, this kid might come back to bite me someday.”
“Hahaha…”
Zhao Futu laughed heartily, saying, “I see it now, Bai Qi is a carbon copy of you from back in the day,”
Luo Xiang shrugged, saying, “I’m not worried about that, Bai Chuanqi has already taken Bai Qi as his apprentice, he’s the one who might get conned, not me.”
Zhao Futu nodded his head and asked, “Where’s Bai Qi?
Hearing Zhao Futu’s question, Luo Xiang couldn’t help but chuckle, This kid barely hit the ground when Old Lady Fan nabbed him, insisting that Bai Qi take the pet the special training program had gifted him.”
“Haha… Old Lady Fan’s patience with humans is commendable. But I remember that Bai Qi only recently advanced to the third rank, right?
“Less than a month, I guess. But I think he’s close to the fourth rank.” Luo Xiang envisioned the scene of Bai Qi pummeling Feng Ye and his friends and could not help but laugh.
A stage three fighter beating a stage four… even Bai Qiucha didn’t do something this outrageous, right?
Breeding ground.
Bai Qi, staring blankly like a fledgling chick, was held by an old-fashioned woman with silver hair and slowly descended from the sky.
Only God knew what he had experienced.
He was originally riding on the Wild Owl coming back from the Emperor’s Secret Realm, and the moment he entered Songlin City’s territory, this old- fashioned woman, who Luo Xiang referred to as Old Lady Fan, directly tore off the Wild Owl’s top cover and took him away.
However, Bai Qi, who had once fooled the Legendary Giant Dragon, quickly noticed that the progress of the Evolution Egg had been raised to a hundred percent.
So, was this old-fashioned woman a transformed Legendary creature?
“We’re here.”
Old Lady Fan, looking impatient, threw Bai Qi to the ground, saying, “Hurry up and choose a Lord creature and get lost. I don’t have the patience to deal with you.”
Seeing Old Lady Fan’s youthful appearance and yet she called herself an old woman was just strange to Bai Qi. But it wasn’t a good idea to provoke a Legendary creature, so he kept his thoughts to himself.
Exactly how many Legendary creatures does the association keep at home, even willing to use them to watch the breeding ground?
Just as Bai Qi was marveling at the association’s wealth, Old Lady Fan suddenly kicked him from behind and said, “What’s taking you so long?”
Then, Old Lady Fan passed Bai Qi and directly entered the breeding ground in front of him.
The breeding ground, located on the outside of the Six Tower, looked like an ancient wooden house from the outside. But everyone knew that this must be the entrance to another secret realm.
Indeed, as Bai Qi entered the wooden house, a view of an infinite prairie suddenly met his eyes. A diverse range of energies continuously radiated from various places in the meadow.
Some of these energies were strong, some were weak, ranging from servants to lords, and Bai Qi even sensed one or two obscure energies. Even though they were only transient, they made his spirit tremble involuntarily.
Regardless of their rank, these creatures seemed to live harmoniously together. To his surprise, Bai Qi saw a skeleton creature intimately resting against a Thunder Beast.
Could the world’s first Thundering Skeleton be born here?
Looking at the dazzling array of pets in the meadow, Bai Qi was thrilled, eager to check out each one.
These were all potential progress…
“Minions, those who are willing to go with this little guy, come over here. Only Lord-level, others need not bother,” Old Lady Fan shouted out to the prairie. “Um, Old Lady Fan, is the pet gifting process in the association so casual?” Seeing Old Lady Fan’s move, Bai Qi couldn’t help but ask, feeling somewhat wronged.
“Usually, the choice is made in advance, but since you, young man, are so dawdling, this old lady can’t be bothered to choose for you,” Old Lady Fan replied, casually glancing at Bai Qi. “You have a nice scent; I’m sure many creatures will want to go with you.
Nice scent, are you sure you’re not choosing something to eat?
Bai Qi’s eye twitched, but remembering that he did indeed take a long time, he quit wasting time and became even more eager.
If I could meet another mutant species – I’d settle for an ancient species or mythical species too.
As Old Lady Fun had predicted, it wasn’t long before plenty of Lord creatures ran in front of Bai Qi.
Some of them approached Bai Qi affectionately after seeing him, clearly quite fond of him. But others sniffed him and ran away.
Is it possible that some did not fancy him?
Bai Qi then understood the feeling of pets that weren’t chosen.
The feeling of being rejected, yikes…
