Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Infinitely

Thump!

A familiar sense of pain came over him as Bai Yuxiao was knocked to the ground by Bai Tongchen, dragged directly to the Tower of Competition. Gu Shan bid bye to Bai Qi for the both of them, then followed.

After they all left, Bai Heguang turned to Bai Qi and said, “The president is waiting for you. Come with me.”

“Okay, teacher.”

Bai Qi nodded, following Bai Heguang towards the Judgment Tower.

Instead of teleporting, Bai Heguang chose to walk with Bai Qi, asking him many questions along the way.

“So, you also encountered something left by the Demon Clan in the Earth Elemental Realm?”

Bai Heguang frowned slightly. The information Bai Tongchen had sent him didn’t mention a broken demon horn, and he only thought that it was evil energy.

Now, hearing Bai Qi’s words, it seemed that the Demon Clan might have once come to this world.

“That’s right. If the Earth Elemental Realm consciousness hadn’t awakened, Gamma would have been eroded by the demon’s broken horn.”

Bai Qi nodded slightly. With a Judgment Angel present, the demon’s broken horn would have a tough time taking over, but without the Earth Elemental Realm consciousness’s help, Gamma’s sense of self would be basically gone.

Bai Heguang’s eyes became sharp all of a sudden as he muttered, “Why does it have to be at this time?”

“Teacher, what’s the matter?”

Bai Qi noticed the change in Bai Heguang’s eyes and couldn’t help but ask.

“Ever since the World Will, Gaia, woke up, change is taking place everywhere. Some pet beasts have even changed their nature and defected after awakening their ancient bloodline.”

Bai Heguang glanced at the Association members coming and going around him, saying, “The headquarters called back all Association members mainly to check the changes in these pet beast bloodlines.”

“I see.”

Bai Qi understood. Even though he had not heard about pet beasts betraying in recent years, he had occasionally heard some rumors.

A pet beast’s defection not only posed a great threat to the Beast Master’s personal safety but also backlashed on the Beast Master.

If the contract can’t be stabilized in time, the Beast Master will permanently lose a contract slot and will never be able to enhance further.

In that case, it would make sense for the Association to make such a big fuss this time.

“Your pet beasts have very special bloodlines. You’d better be careful too.”

Bai Heguang said, “Especially Alpha and Gamma. One has the Power of Death and the other has Evil Energy. If they awaken their ancient bloodline, they might pose some risks.”

“Awakening the ancient bloodline?”

Bai Qi stroked his chin. The bloodlines of his pet beasts had been smeared on by the Evolution Egg.

Now Gamma, Jie Ta, and the others could be considered to have mythical bloodlines. Delta had the bloodline of the Eastern Dragon, which, although not mythical, had potential no less than that of a mythical creature.

As for Alpha and Husky, they were originally just common pet beasts. It seemed that they didn’t have any bloodline that could awaken?

“Actually, there have been some signs before. In the last two years, the speed of pet beasts and Beast Masters’ enhancement has been getting faster and faster. Especially those with ample resources like Xiao Yuan. Although their enhancement speed is slower than yours, but not much.”

Bai Heguang paused and said, “Especially after the World Will woke up previously, the enhancement speed of all pet beasts in the Federation has increased a lot.”

“The awakening of the World Will has such an effect.”

Bai Qi became a bit curious. He was about to ask more questions but then realized that they had already reached the door of the office of Zhao Futu, the president at the Judgment Tower.

“I’ll tell you more about it later. Go see the president first. He has a very important task for you.”

“A very important task?”

Bai Heguang pushed the door open. Zhao Futu was already waiting inside. Seeing them come in, he laughed, “You’ve only just arrived. I thought you’d discovered another missing Secret Realm on your way here.”

“Mr. President, that joke is not funny at all.”

Bai Qi twitched at the corner of his eye. Had his disappearance while exploring the secret realm become a sort of joke?

“Okay, I’ll stop teasing you. Heguang should have already reported the current situation to you, right?”

Zhao Futu walked up to Bai Qi and asked.

“Yes, the teachers have told me all about it.”

Bai Qi nodded his head.

“That’s good. Recently, the bloodlines of pet beasts all over the world have been undergoing drastic changes. The tribes are no exception. So, to be on the safe side, our association also needs to enhance our power to the maximum extent.”

Zhao Futu handed a list to Bai Qi and said, “These are Spirit Controllers that have been trained by the headquarters. Although they haven’t autonomously awakened their Bond Curse Mark yet, their relationship with their pet beasts is rather good. There’s a very high probability of awakening if they’re stimulated.”

“I’m planning to let them follow you back to the Super God Evolution Research Institute to aid in your research. What do you think?”

Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders and said, “I’m fine with it. Anyway, I’ve almost finished modifying the basic rune system for Bond Evolution. All that’s left is a little bit of fine-tuning.”

“Oh? You’ve already completed it?”

Hearing Bai Qi’s words, Zhao Futu’s eyes lit up instantly. He snapped his fingers, and a young man dressed in association member clothing suddenly appeared before the group.

“President… You were looking for me?”

The youth wasn’t surprised to find himself suddenly transported here. Clearly, this wasn’t the first time Zhao Futu had transported him in such an abrupt manner.

“Yes, let me introduce you. This is Bai Qi, the discoverer of Bond Evolution.”

Zhao Futu pointed to Bai Qi and said, “He’s Zhao Zhen, the most likely candidate among the Spirit Controllers we’ve discovered to awaken the Bond Curse Mark. Bai Qi, why don’t you try it out with him first?”

“You’re Master Bai Qi?”

As he heard this, Zhao Zhen’s expression changed, and his eyes became fanatic when he looked at Bai Qi.

“You’re Master Bai Qi? I can’t believe I’m meeting you in person. They’ll definitely be jealous when I go back. Master Bai Qi, can I please have your autograph?”

“A fan? An autograph?”

Bai Qi twitched at the corner of his mouth. How could he encounter fanatic fans even here in the association? He knew he was quite well-known, but this seemed rather exaggerated.

“Don’t be so surprised. For them, Spirit Controllers are a new path, and now they have the Bond Curse Mark, so there’s a further opportunity for progress. I dare say, all the Spirit Controllers in the entire Federation are your fanatic fans.”

Zhao Futu laughed and said, “I guarantee that if you were to run for the position of Federation Speaker right now, you’d get a lot of votes.”

“Ahem… Let’s not consider that. I’m not really suited for such things.”

Bai Qi coughed lightly and directed his gaze to Zhao Zhen, “Summon your pet beast first.”

“Okay, Master Bai Qi.”

Zhao Zhen nodded, took out a Spirit-Control Orb, and summoned his pet beast.

“A short-eared cat?”

Bai Qi nodded slightly and took out a thumb-sized chip from his secret realm. He inserted it into the armor of the short-eared cat. After ensuring it was activated, he handed a matching jade ball and an Armed Fierce Dragon Machine to Zhao Zhen.

“Use this to contract again. Then inject your spirit power into this Armed Fierce Dragon Machine. Remember, you need to be sincere.”

“No problem!”

Zhao Zhen took the jade ball and the Armed Fierce Dragon Machine. He quickly formed a new contract with the short-eared cat and then injected all his spirit power into the Armed Fierce Dragon Machine without reservation.

In an instant, an Evolution Light enveloped the short-eared cat. Zhao Zhen also fell into a strange state where the spirit power of the Spirit Controller and the pet beast materialized. With the aid of the Evolution Light, they slowly outlined a red curse mark.

“The Bond Curse Mark!”

Zhao Futu, seeing this, couldn’t help but smile. Bai Heguang looked at Bai Qi with a look of surprise.

He knew that the association and even the Thirteenth Bureau had conducted preliminary research on the Bond Curse Mark after its discovery. They’d even approached the Super God Evolution Research Institute for help, but they still couldn’t significantly increase the awakening rate.

Unexpectedly, Bai Qi had succeeded so easily.

Bai Qi’s talent in runes was genuinely stronger than his Beast Master Talent!

Finally, the Evolution Light dissipated, and the short-eared cat’s appearance had significantly changed. But, unlike Zhuge Chen, it didn’t directly ascend to a King Creature but became a Lord Evolution Type.

Noticing the puzzled looks of the others, Bai Qi explained, “The main thing about Bond Evolution is the degree of connection between the Spirit Controller and the pet beast. The deeper the connection, the higher the synchronization rate of the soul, and the stronger and longer-lasting the evolution. This is similar to Leap Evolution.”

“I’ve tried my best to strengthen the connection between the Spirit Controller and the pet beast in terms of rune structure. But the bond has to be accumulated over time.”

Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he had done his best.

“I understand. Zhao Zhen, you can go back now.”

Zhao Futu nodded slightly and sent Zhao Zhen back.

It was the same when those Spirit Controllers with self-awakened talents evolved previously. They’d initially thought it was a problem with their respective talents. Now it seemed that it was indeed due to the degree of bonding.

“Since you already have a stable method of awakening, the next step is to cultivate the bonding of these people, right?”

Zhao Futu looked at Bai Qi and said, “It’s perfect timing. Once you take over as the president after you go back, it’s only natural for these people to be trained by you.”

“I train them? Well, I… Wait, what did you just say, Mr. President?”

“I’m taking over as president?!”
