Chapter 49: Chapter 48: The Terror of the Golden Finger

“Have you decided which path to choose?”
Beta was of spirit power variation, so both of these evolution routes shouldn’t affect it too greatly.
However, the attribute of the Blood Moon Werewolf perfectly overlapped with Alpha’s, which Bai Qi hadn’t planned on cultivating at first, otherwise, the attribute would’ve been too singular.
As for the Green-scaled Wolf, its poison attribute isn’t bad, but judging by the situation a few days ago, Bai Qi seriously doubted he might have been poisoned by this idiot.
“President, are these all?”
President Qin shook his head and said, “Apart from beasts from the insect system, most pet beast only have at most two or three types of evolution. Your skeleton is already an exception.”
“I see…”
Bai Qi was silent, he was initially going to see if there were any powerful evolutionary models to learn from, but now it seems he was overthinking it.
Even though Beta is an Arctic Ice Wolf, its ice attribute ability has already been degenerated, strictly speaking, other than its looks, this thing has little connection with an Arctic Ice Wolf.
In that case, it seems that he doesn’t necessarily needs to stick to the Arctic Ice Wolf’s evolution path?
!!..
After all, with the Evolution Egg in hand, can’t he just DIY at will?
Surely Steel Garuru is just right on the road!
Bai Qi quickly let go of his doubts, bowed to President Qin and said, “I roughly have an idea, thank you for your guidance, President.”
“Uh, don’t you need a cultivation method?”
President Qin asked in doubt, “Or are you just planning to cultivate along the regular path?”
“Let’s take one step at a time, who knows if it might evolve on its own.”
Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders and said, “By the way, President, are there any other benefits in the Special Training Program? Like funding, materials, and the like.”
“Have you spent your 20 million dollars?”
“Cough cough, money is easy to spend in this era, you know it, President.”
President Qin looked surprisedly at Bai Qi and said, “There are such benefits, but you won’t need them yet.”
“The Association will provide a free Lord-level pet beast contract for Special Training members, originally, I planned to help you pick one, but who knew you were so fast and contracted first.”
Offer a free Lord pet beast?
Can I break the contract now?
Bai Qi felt his heart bleed.
“Uh, President, this benefit won’t expire, will it?”
President Qin shook his head and said, “That won’t be the case, you just need to wait a while.”
“That’s good, otherwise, I would’ve suffered a big loss.”
Bai Qi exhaled, though theoretically, he could evolve any pet beast into a Lord or higher, but why not take the easier route if he could?
“In that case, I’ll go back first.”
Bai Qi still hadn’t figured out the effect of the Bronze Egg yet and he had almost depleted his God’s Water, it was no use staying here any longer, Bai Qi was thinking of leaving.
President Qin stopped Bai Qi, and handed over a flyer and said, “Wait a minute, since you have already broken through, I can give you this task.”
“The Haoli Cup Friendship Combat Competition? It seems familiar…”
Bai Qi took the flyer, and looking at the moving hormones, he immediately remembered.
Alpha’s first opponent in the battle, that muscular hulk, seemed to be from the Haoli Dojo.
“In recent years, the construction of Gusu City has become more prosperous, with many dojos and financial groups wanting to move in, Haoli Dojo is one of them.”
“Originally, for the Haoli Dojo’s reputation in the Federation, they should have been on the headlines in Gusu City, but they were unlucky and kept being replaced by other events.”
Other events?
Bai Qi blinked, then understood.
First, the Son of Celestial Brilliance settled in Gusu City, then the Lamentation Tower appeared. Almost all of Gusu City’s inhabitants were drawn to these two events, seemingly oblivious to anything else.
“So, to alleviate this situation, the Haoli Dojo specially organized a friendly competition and invited all promising apprentice Beast Masters from Gusu City to participate.”
“In order to achieve maximum impact, the competition’s prize is quite substantial. The top three winners even get extra bonuses. This has been quite the news recently.”
Prizes?
Bai Qi’s eyes instantly morphed into little money symbols.
Although he was a Second Stage Beast Master, he had not gone through the professional Beast Master assessment. As such, he was still considered an apprentice Beast Master. Participating in such a competition would be akin to unbridled killing, wouldn’t it?
“Don’t get ahead of yourself. The Haoli Dojo is hosting this friendly competition to gain a reputation, not to hand out money to you. You can be sure they are fully prepared,” President Qin interrupted Bai Qi’s daydreams.
Qin continued, “This time you’re representing the Gusu City Beast Master Association. If you lose too badly, I will hold you accountable.”
Bai Qi nodded, “Understood, I’ll do my best.”
President Qin paused for a moment, “I will teach you a method to hide Rune Marks later. Before the opening of the next Secret Realm Tower, don’t let anyone know you’ve broken through.”
One could hide Rune Marks?
This was just like playing a pig to catch a tiger – the perfect trick!
Bai Qi nodded repeatedly, carefully following President Qin’s instructions and promptly hiding his second Rune Mark.
“The competition is in three days. Go home and prepare well. I will have the application information delivered to you in time.” Once President Qin saw that Bai Qi mastered the method, he didn’t linger and left right away.
As the president of the Gusu City Beast Master Association, he had a lot of tasks to attend to every day. If it weren’t for Bai Qi, he would have barely had the patience to meddle in other matters.
After President Qin left, Bai Qi also went straight back home. Looking at the two Bronze Eggs that were still yet to show any hints of hatching, he sat cross-legged and started to meditate.
Crack.
Finally, Alpha’s egg broke through, and Bai Qi immediately awakened, pressing the timer in his hand.
Bai Qi noted the time, waited a bit, and then Beta’s egg also broke open.
“Each Bronze Egg takes two hours, twice the duration of a Black Iron Egg. I wonder if their effect also doubles.”
Bai Qi called upon Beta first, and immediately information was transmitted from the Bronze Egg to him.
[Name]: Ice Shadow Swordsman (Alpha)
[Race]: Ice Clan, Undead Department
[Growth Level]: First Stage, four Level
[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Elite
[Racial Skills]: Bone-breaking Reformation (Perfect), Steel Skeleton (Master), Ice Sword Slash (Proficient), Shadow Lotus Skill (Master), Ice Armor (Master)
[Energy Value]: 5000
[Condition]: Evolvable
A single evolution had increased by one level, and the Energy Value had increased by 2000?
If this trend was to continue, it was entirely possible for Alpha to surpass 10,000 Energy Value before reaching the next stage!
The pet beasts need to consume Energy Value when using skills, and the amount of Energy Value directly determines the number of times a pet beast can use their skills.
Same level, same skills, Lord Level beasts can undoubtedly use the skills more times than an Elite Level, the difference lies in this Energy Value.
Generally speaking, an Elite Beast like Alpha’s minimum Energy Value at the first stage should be 1000. Now it’s increased by 2000, that’s equivalent to having the energy of two more Elite Beasts.
Are Bronze Eggs really this terrifying?
