Chapter 579: Chapter 574: Practical Test
Seeing how serious Heibai looked, Bai Qi completely gave up his plan to ask Heibai for help.
With tribal beasts outside and the Death Round Table lurking inside, although it might not be as dangerous as the Era of Law Emperor, he thought it would be safer to handle it himself for safety’s sake.
“However, once you’ve completed the basic structure, I can give you some advice on some external units.”
Heibai hesitated and then said.
“External units? Seems good to me.”
Bai Qi nodded in agreement. For a Secret Realm Tower, external units were extremely important, and having Heibai, an experienced worker, help out would lighten the load.
With the go-ahead from Heibai, Bai Qi decided not to stick around anymore and marched straight back to his room in the Secret Place and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
…
The Wasteland Wall No.4.
For the convenience of training, the accommodation of the military training class was moved directly inside Wall No.4, and their daily training task became independently clearing the residual beasts between Walls No.3 and No.4.
With the successful ascend of Wall No.4, and the safe return of several Legends, the military also began to build a military base between Walls No.3 and No.4, taking the opportunity to task the military training class with clearing the remaining beasts, killing two birds with one stone.
“Bai Qi, do you want to rest a bit more?”
Upon seeing Bai Qi appear, Wang Huai, who was leading the students in analyzing battle videos, immediately stepped forward to inquire.
“Not necessary, one sleep was enough.”
Bai Qi shook his head and replied.
Earth attribute energy also had healing abilities. Before leaving the Earth Elemental Realm, the will of the Earth Elemental Realm had helped them recover, and the earlier evolution of Gamma had greatly enhanced his physical condition.
Sleep aside, Bai Qi was very excited.
If it weren’t for the need to relax his mind, Bai Qi would not have slept at all.
“By the way, where are Cha and Li Xusheng? I haven’t seen them.”
Bai Qi glanced around the room and didn’t see either Bai Qiucha or Li Xusheng.
“Them? They are now Six Stage Beast Trainers. There’s no meaning in them continuing to train here, so General Qi Zhao took them elsewhere.”
Wang Huai shrugged his shoulders, a look of regret on his face.
Truthfully, Li Xusheng should have moved up to the Zero Team as soon as he returned from Eden, but since Li Xusheng didn’t want to join them, he had remained here all along.
Now that Li Xusheng had advanced to the sixth stage, the Thirteenth Bureau would definitely assign other tasks to him. Staying in the first team was pretty unrealistic.
“I see, I was planning to test my new skills with them.”
Bai Qi expressed his regret.
“New skills? Has your beast picked up new skills in the Earth Elemental Realm, Bai Qi?”
Wang Huai was somewhat curious and asked.
“Yeah, Gamma evolved due to an accident and acquired new skills. I wanted to test them, but if they aren’t here then nevermind.”
Bai Qi nodded and politely excused himself, “Brother Wang, I won’t bother you anymore and will take my leave first.”
Saying that, Bai Qi turned around and left on his own accord.
Without Cha and Li Xusheng, he would have to go find a solitary Emperor Beast between Walls No.3 and No.4.
If that doesn’t work out, he can get Huangfu Chuanqi and others for practice.
“Captain, what did Bai Qi want?”
Seeing Bai Qi leave, Tang Miao also ran over and asked curiously.
“Nothing much. Just that another one of his beasts evolved.”
Wang Huai answered quietly and then turned around to return to his place, almost as if not wanting to say anything.
“Oh, so it’s just a pet evolution. I thought it was something big… What? Pet evolution? Aren’t all of Bai Qi’s beasts on a King-level? Did he get another Emperor-level creature?!”
“Hehe…”
“Man, this guy is just…”
…
Bai Qi left the training base and ambled toward the temporary mission point inside Wall No.4.
Since the military base between Walls No.3 and No.4 hadn’t been built yet, mission assignments were temporarily occurring inside Wall No.4. Naturally, this would be the place to look for information about any Emperor Beasts.
“Lieutenant Colonel Bai!”
Upon Bai Qi’s arrival, the gatekeeper immediately saluted him, with clear respect in his eyes.
Though Bai Qi had only been back half a day, his legendary adventure had already spread across Wall No.4.
At a time when three Legends succumbed one after the other, Bai Qi ventured alone into the secret place, not only successfully rescuing the three Legends but also managed to secure a new ally for the Federation.
Not just anyone could accomplish such a feat.
“Hello, can you help me find some missions to eliminate Six Stage Emperor Beasts?”
Hearing Bai Qi’s request, the Non-commissioned Officer responsible for dispatching the tasks couldn’t help but force a smile and said, “Lieutenant Colonel Bai, there are only some King Beasts remaining between Walls No.3 and No.4, the Emperor Beasts were exterminated a while ago.”
The distance between Walls No.3 and No.4 is quite significant, thus even with the rise of Wall No.4, a few beasts were still lingering. But Emperor-level creatures absolutely wouldn’t have survived till now.
“Is that so…”
Hearing that, Bai Qi felt slightly disappointed. If there were none between Walls No.3 and No.4, then he would have to go outside Wall No.4, but with the current situation, venturing there seemed a bit risky.
Who knows if Lao Liu, the Thunder Leopard who dared use him as bait, was still lurking nearby? If he was being watched by him, Bai Qi was not confident that he could get Alpha and the others to use the Dragon of Silent Annihilation again after the guy had been bitten once.
“Let’s just go bother Huangfu Chuanqi after all, hmm and maybe Bai Chuanqi could work.”
Bai Qi shrugged and turned to leave the mission center, intending to ask someone about the whereabouts of Huangfu Chuanqi and his group. Just then, he saw Bai Qiucha and Li Xusheng appear from a distance.
“Bai Qi, are you awake? Don’t you need more rest?”
Bai Qiucha was the first to approach him and ask.
“Umm, I was a bit bored from sleeping, so I decided to get up and move around.”
Bai Qi shrugged helplessly. Why did everyone keep insisting that he needed rest? Did he really look that exhausted?
At that moment, Bai Qi sensed a strong scent of blood and flesh. He looked up and saw that Li Xusheng had also made his way to him.
Well, compared to this freak, he was indeed a little exhausted.
“Oh right, have you two just returned from a mission?”
Bai Qi asked, looking at the two dust-covered figures, both still bearing traces of the mercilessness of their battles.
“Yeah, after we advanced to the sixth stage, we were assigned to fight the ferocious beasts. It was a good chance to get used to our new powers.”
Bai Qiucha nodded in agreement.
“I see.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Qi couldn’t help but feel envious. He too wanted to familiarize himself with his new abilities. He hadn’t had the chance to try out Gamma’s or Jie Ta’s new skills yet.
“Bai Qi, did you level up again?”
Li Xusheng glanced at Bai Qi and suddenly asked.
“Umm, kind of. Gamma unexpectedly advanced to the emperor level.”
“Another emperor-level creature?”
Bai Qiucha seemed surprised. He sensed Bai Qi’s higher spirit power than before.
“In that case, I challenge you to a battle!”
Li Xusheng finally voiced his idea. Bai Qiucha chimed in from the side, “Since that’s the case, I also want to challenge you!”
“Hmm, I don’t mind. But don’t you two want to rest first?”
Bai Qi scratched his head. He had initially planned to test out his powers with the two of them. Their willingness to spar was indeed helpful.
However, if they were not at their peak state, the effectiveness of his experiments might be compromised.
“It’s fine, we can recover quickly using the newest healing tanks provided by the association near Wall Four.”
Bai Tongchen suddenly appeared next to them and smiled.
“It just so happens that we’d like to see what kind of spectacle would arise from the Federation’s three youngest sixth-rank beast masters battling. Don’t we?”
“Definitely.”
Huangfu Wujiu and Uffie walked up together, with Qi Zhao following behind.
“If needed, I can prepare the battlefield right now. A normal battlefield might not be able to accommodate three sixth-rank beast masters.”
Qi Zhao chuckled.
“There’s no need for such hassle. I believe there are some Stealth Shadow Monkeys near Wall Three and Four that haven’t been completely wiped out. We can set up the battlefield there.”
Huangfu Wujiu shook his head. Emperor-level pets were not ordinary and even the military’s special battlefield might not be able to accommodate them. Not to mention Bai Qi, who was even more unusual.
If Bai Qi and the other two were to go all out here, this battlefield would likely be destroyed.
“That works too. We can complete the mission along the way.”
Qi Zhao nodded slightly in agreement, finalizing the location of the mission. He then took Bai Qiucha and Li Xusheng to the healing bay to recover.
“Hearing your conversation earlier, a pet of yours has evolved, right? Is it the slime monster?”
Huangfu Wujiu looked at Bai Qi and asked.
“Yes, there were signs of this in the Earth Elemental Realm, but the evolution only completed after we returned here.”
Bai Qi answered.
“As expected.”
Huangfu Wujiu nodded. “We’ve already seen the negative impact of Evil Power in the Elemental Realm. Your pet may be fine now, but it’s better to pay more attention to it in the future.”
“Yes, Huangfu Chuanqi, don’t worry. I will.”
Bai Qi nodded repeatedly, but Huangfu Wujiu still seemed uneasy.
Out of the six pets, the abilities of death and evil power were possessed by two. The more he thought about it, the weirder it got.
“No need to worry about this kid. With the protection of the World Will, unless there is a force that can defeat it, I doubt anyone can harm this kid.”
Bai Tongchen gave Bai Qi a heavy pat on the shoulder. When he saw Bai Qi’s unbothered expression, he started laughing heartily.
“Bai Qi, you should consider coming to the Tower of Competition for training. With your physique, I bet you could even engage in hand-to-hand combat with some lower-rank ferocious beasts if you learned some fighting techniques.”
“I’d better not. I’m not even as big as a bite for those ferocious beasts.”
Bai Qi shrunk back. If it weren’t for the fact that his pets didn’t have any attached skills, he might have given it a shot.
Considering the opponents he was currently facing, it was better to pass on the idea.
“Hahaha… With the way you’re going, you might just become a legend one day. Do you want me to keep an eye out for some pets with attached skills? Always hiding behind isn’t what a man should do.”
Bai Tongchen was obviously interested and kept coaxing Bai Qi.
“Bai Chuanqi, you’re thinking too far ahead. I’m only sixth-rank…”
“It’s not too far. At worst, we won’t form a contract for now. Is that settled?”
“emmm…”
