Chapter 247: Chapter 243: Schuck Evolves into King-level?
The newly activated fire seed was burning even more intensely under the illumination of the Evolution Light, and even engulfed half of Beta’s body.
Ahhh!!!
(What the hell is this, can I run away from this?)
Beta, who was originally meditating, was suddenly awakened by being engulfed in flames. Ignoring the shimmering Evolution Light on its body, it instinctively wanted to escape.
“Stupid dog, you are evolving, don’t move around!”
Although surprised that Beta could still move around during its evolution, Bai Qi was too preoccupied at that moment to hold Beta accountable. He ordered it not to move, before quietly waiting by the side.
Gurgle gurgle?
(Boss, has Schuck evolved?)
Seeing Alpha, who had rushed over after hearing the commotion, Bai Qi nodded and said, “Schuck has activated his fire seed, which should have triggered a qualitative change.”
Ker-plunkker-plunk.
(Will Schuck evolve directly into King-level?)
Gamma curiously watched the blue flames on Schuck, the Husky, evidently harboring the urge to go and have a taste.
Gurgle gurgle.
(Probably not, Schuck’s life essence hasn’t increased to King-level status.)
Alpha’s Fire of Soul flickered, and it quickly determined the current state of Schuck, the Husky.
“Alpha, are you sure about this?”
Bai Qi paused on hearing this and asked, “Can you already see the intensity of the life essence?”
Alpha nodded, affirming Bai Qi’s statement.
Blurp blurp.
(Even so, it should still become very strong, right? Delta can already feel the pressure from Schuck and Beta.)
Delta took a good look at the Husky a few times and gave its own opinion.
As the one in the team who had evolved and devolved the most times, Delta had basically tried all types and levels of evolution, so Delta’s opinion was most authoritative.
It can’t go straight to King level, huh?
After hearing the shared verdict of his three pets, Bai Qi sighed with a sense of regret.
If they could directly promote to the King level, coupled with Alpha, two King- level creatures could definitely dominate the field, even to the point where he wouldn’t have to bring out Gamma and Delta.
Finally, as Bai Qi and his three pets eagerly watched, the Evolution Light on the Husky gradually dissipated, and Bai Qi immediately stepped forward to check it out.
“Huh? Schuck, where’s your mechanical head? Why did it become like Beta’s?” Looking at the double-headed wolf in front of him, which seemed no different from an ordinary Arctic Ice Wolf, Bai Qi was surprised. He carefully searched for a long time but couldn’t find a single metallic creation on the Husky’s body.
“It’s just an additional ability awakened after the upgrade, I guess you could say it’s a micro-control over materials.”
Blue light flashed in Schuck’s eyes and its skull immediately flipped around, instantly reverting to its original mechanical appearance.
“I see, what about the attributes?”
Bai Qi asked curiously, and Schuck promptly put its head against Bai Qi’s body. The information on the Husky’s evolution was then directly transmitted to Bai Qi’s mind.
[Name]: War Apostle (Beta)
[Race]: Mechanical Engineering Department, Wolf Species (psychic mutation)
[Growth Level]: Four Stage One Level
[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Lord
[Racial skills]: Mechanical Lord (Super – Proficient), Mechanical Heart (Super – Beginner), Mind’s Eye (Advanced – Proficient), Demonic Roar (Advanced – Proficient), Thunder Flame Power (Advanced – Proficient), Soul Whisper (Advanced – Proficient), Electric Resistance (Intermediate – Perfect)
[Energy Value]: 1E1130W
[Condition]: Evolvable
The race’s name remained unchanged, but its bloodline level jumped directly to High-grade Lord, and its energy value exploded to 1E1130W.
To put it in perspective, when Alpha had leveled up to the King rank, it had only been 1E6840W, which was already far beyond the normal range for King-level. Yet Schuck’s evolution has now directly exceeded one hundred million.
“Sure enough, awakening the Mechanical Fire Seed is no joke.”
Bai Qi grinned and looked again at the new skill acquired by the Husky.
[Skill Name]: Mechanical Heart
[Skill Level]: Super
[Ski11 Introduction]: A skill that can only be mastered after a mechanical creation awakens its fire seed, it can significantly enhance the control, attack, and defense factors of the mechanical creation, and will continue to strengthen over time.
Is this a continuously growing passive skill?
Bai Qi’s eyes lit up. Although it wasn’t an active attack skill, it was the perfect skill for Schuck’s future development.
Continuous enhancement over time means that Schuck could gradually become stronger even without training. Could there be a skill more suitable for Schuck, who is partial to researching mechanical creations?
“Congratulations, Schuck, you can now focus on your research.”
Bai Qi patted Schuck’s head, and for once, Schuck displayed an expression of enjoyment, clearly in a very good mood.
Despite being born due to the partitioning of Beta’s rationality, and despite becoming incredibly rational under the influence of the smart brain, Schuck still had some instincts.
Awhoo…
(This Super Skill doesn’t belong to me…)
Unlike Schuck’s cheerfulness, Beta was looking at Bai Qi with a face full of grievance.
“Mechanical Heart only enhances the mechanical part, and it has no relation to it,” said Bai Qi.
“Cough, cough, I already asked the Thirteenth Bureau for a mythical spirit resource, whether you can get it or not depends on you.”
Woof woof!
(Spirit resources?)
Beta’s ears perked up instantly, and his expression became unusually determined.
“lam set on this material, even if Buddha himself comes, he can’t take it away from me!” said Beta
“That’s the spirit!” Bai Qi nodded slightly, looking at the four pets in front of him, “All of you should understand how important tomorrow’s battle is. Whether or not you can be number one in actual combat, we’ll see.”
Crackle crackle!
(Don’t worry, boss. Alpha will absolutely not lose!)
Woof…
(For the sake of my spiritual resources, I’ll fight them.)
“According to my calculations, unless the Thirteenth Bureau has new participants, the probability of you, Beast Master, winning is 91.8%.”
Thump, thump…
(Gamma will do its best too.)
Blub, blub…
(So will Delta.)
Looking at the confident four pets, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, “Okay, then let’s figure out the tactics for tomorrow’s battle. These old foxes still refuse to disclose the specifics of the competition. We have to plan beforehand.”
Under everyone’s hopeful gaze, the second day of the grand competition finally arrived.
Besides the two big names Zhao Futu and Wang Jian, the other five tower masters from the association, a group of instructors, the Thirteenth Bureau’s accompanied legends, and ministers like Yi Yu took their seats. Below them were a group of eager young Beast Masters.
Both sides of the Beast Masters prepared for this big competition for a long time. Now was the time to test the results of their efforts.
Finally, Zhao Futu and Wang Jian appeared together, went to the centre of the field. After exchanging a few polite words, Zhao Futu, as the host, stepped forward, “In order not to dampen the enthusiasm of the contestants, we will start with actual combat.”
Upon hearing what Zhao Futu had to say, many Beast Masters nodded in agreement.
Theory is extremely important, but the main standard for judging whether a Beast Master is strong or not is still practical combat.
After all, in a battle with ferocious beasts, relying solely on theory is not sufficient.
Zhao Futu raised his hand, signaling for everyone to be quiet, and continued, “The practical combat will be divided into two rounds. For the first round, you will be randomly divided into four groups. The Association and the Thirteenth Bureau will each have twelve persons. Each side will send people to compete one by one. The winner will stay on and wait for the next challenger. The loser cannot challenge again until all contestants on one side are defeated, thereby ending the match.”
“After the end of the first round, we will select the top five winners from both sides to enter the second round of group battle. As for the specifics of the group battle, I don’t think I need to introduce more.”
Pausing at this point, Zhao Futu said, “Those who want to get the top three rewards, or those who want to earn points, will have to put in a lot of effort.” “Challenge competition?”
After listening to Zhao Futu’s words, Bai Qi was slightly startled.
It was fine to have a mere challenge competition, but the randomness of the nearly one hundred people from both sides divided into four groups was too high.
If unlucky, one might end up in a death group full of Four Stage Beast Masters.
“Never mind, let’s just fight it out.”
Concerning luck, Bai Qi didn’t want to think too much and quietly waited for the allocation result.
After elaborating the rules, Zhao Futu retreated to his seat and was replaced by Wang Jian. Wang Jian clearly understood what everyone was thinking right now. He didn’t waste time with small talk and pressed the random sorting button in front of him.
After a dazzling random sorting, four groups of contestants appeared on the screen. Everyone immediately began to look for their names.
“Oh no, I’m in the same group as Bai Qi. I feel like I can just lay down now.”
Bai Yuxiao was the first to find his name, but after seeing Bai Qi followed closely behind, he instantly felt deflated.
By the usual standards of a challenge competition, the longer you stay on, the more points you get. On top of that, the points of the defeated are inherited by the victorious challenger.
Being in the same group as Bai Qi, going early would only pave the way for Bai Qi’s victory while going later would still result in a defeat. There was no hope, no matter from which perspective.
“Well, there’s nothing you can do about this.”
Xiao Yuan and others sympathetically patted Bai Yuxiao’s shoulder, releasing a silent sigh of relief at the same time.
The ranking of the two departments is done separately, but the same departments are put together.
To be selected among the top five, it is best to avoid Bai Qi or other similar skilled people, otherwise the odds of getting selected are low.
Luckily, apart from Zhou Yan and Lu Qing, who were placed in the same group, their Four Stage Beast Masters were scattered.
As for the students who were grouped with Bai Qi, they could only wish for the best.
After all, with five players from both sides, if everything goes according to plan, the positions are already set.
The association side was full of complaints, the same went for the Thirteenth Bureau side.
“I can’t believe I was grouped with Xusheng, can I just give up now?” After seeing his name grouped with Li Xusheng, Tang Miao immediately felt disheartened. Wang Huai smiled and said, “It’s the same. As long as you show your strength and take the stage early, you have a chance of getting to the next round.”
Hearing Wang Huai’s words, Tang Miao felt better, but before he could say anything, a tall blonde woman with green eyes stepped forward, firing off a string of jibes.
“Only those who have no confidence in their abilities would worry about not making it to the next round.”
“This grand competition will allow me, Lilith Borg, to teach you what is a real Beast Master!”
