Juicy, juicy, all the clones of the Sunflower Emperor wore a juicy expression. If possible, the Sunflower Emperor would likely completely devour the entire Heaven-Swallowing Clam. Outside, the tank was still immersed in his perfect muscles. He looked at the mirror in the bathroom, critiquing himself: "Perfect, truly perfect." "How could I have such perfect muscles?" Muscle brother tank was completely lost in the allure of his own charm, unable to extricate himself. He had completely forgotten his tasks. The clones of the mud monster king surged in from all directions. Its clones could all use Petrification Light, making it quite difficult for the Space Pelican to dodge. The Space Pelican was at a point where it couldn’t avoid anymore. "Space Pelican, can you switch his position with ours?" Ye Bai decided to make a bold gamble. Although the Space Pelican looked troubled, it nodded without hesitation. Its feathers emitted strands of silvery white light. Due to the rarity of spatial attribute pet beasts. The old venomous crane hadn’t realized danger was approaching. He looked pleased as he saw the clones of the mud monster king cornering Ye Bai and the Space Pelican against the wall. A grayish-white light rushed towards Ye Bai. Ye Bai had nowhere else to retreat; he was finally going to take down this troublesome fellow. The old venomous crane’s lips curled into a smug smile. At this moment, the Space Pelican suddenly let out a piercing scream. The old venomous crane instantly felt his world spinning. He barely saw what happened when a grayish-white beam landed on his body. Once he realized what had happened, the old venomous crane clutched his head, shouting, "No!!!" The old venomous crane turned into a stone statue. At the moment he was petrified, the mud monster king was struck as if by thunder, collapsing directly to the ground. "Ah, this guy actually has an unimaginably precious spatial attribute exotic beast." "And he hasn’t even signed a contract with it yet; very well, this guy will be my pet beast." The black-robed man muttered to himself. Just then, people from the Provincial City Pet Beast Union, whom he had trapped, broke his barrier and surrounded him. The black-robed man was instantly dumbfounded. "Day Sage, our chairman had already foreseen you would come to rescue the Star Sage." Check latest chapters at 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩 "So we simply lured the snake out of its hole." "Did you think you had us trapped just now?" "To tell you the truth, we were just putting on a show with you." "Just surrender obediently." The Day Sage looked at the people from the pet beast union surrounding him, snorted coldly. "Hmph, leaving me here won’t be so easy for you." "You will certainly face retaliation from the Evangelical Association, for sure." The Day Sage’s body gradually faded and then vanished into thin air. This Day Sage was all talk and no action. "Star Sage, I’m not helping you; it’s just that the opponent’s strength was too much." "Take care of yourself, it’s the last friendly drop." The Day Sage and the Star Sage were also fair-weather friends. On the other side, the Pet Beast Master had died, and the Heaven-Swallowing Clam could no longer hold back. Its internal body was pitted, and its outer shell had been petrified by the Petrification Light. In desperation, the Heaven-Swallowing Clam opened its shell, releasing Chairman Zhang and others. This incident with the Evangelical Association ended here; the task of eliminating the Evangelical Association’s bases and scouting intel was left to the master uncle. Soon, the scores for the provincial Young Qilin Cup were out. The Vajra Butterfly cultivated by Ye Bai had the highest score. The main reason was the pet beast’s good spirit, vibrant hues, and body exuding the cold edge of sword aura, a combination of beauty and combat power in an exotic beast. "Congratulations, Ye Bai, you ranked first in all three assessments." "You successfully advanced to the Young Qilin Cup National Competition of the Flame Country." Chairman Li patted Ye Bai on the shoulder. Regarding the Evangelical Association’s sudden attempt to snatch contestants, Chairman Zhang had already reported it. It is likely that rewards will be given for merits soon. Li Chen’s King Rabbit and Battle Chrysalis were defeated by opponents successively, leaving him powerless. He had no choice but to give up the Phoenix Cup champion’s throne and settled for being the runner-up. At the award ceremony. The freshly crowned provincial Phoenix Cup champion Gao Tu gave a stunning speech. "Everyone, it’s not that I look down on you, but all of you here are garbage." "I don’t have the slightest intention to belittle you." "If anyone can defeat me, I’ll perform a headstand hair wash immediately." After hearing this, Li Chen’s face turned as dark as ink, almost about to squeeze out ink. "Hmph, if my good buddy hadn’t been participating in the Young Qilin Cup." "Someone as arrogant as you wouldn’t have been crowned Phoenix Cup champion." Li Chen’s words piqued Gao Tu’s interest. Who is his good buddy? After the Phoenix Cup ended. Gao Tu obtained all of Ye Bai’s information. He quickly skimmed through it, then slumped onto the sofa. "Isn’t he just a researcher?" "What’s there to brag about?" "Maybe my pet beast can crush the opponent effortlessly." One of the sidekicks immediately gave a suggestion. "Gao Tu, I think you should battle him. A Phoenix Cup champion against a Young Qilin Cup champion would surely be sensational." "We can adopt a live broadcast format, letting the television audience decide who’s stronger." "I’ve looked into this person, he’s just a bookworm." "Gao Tu, if you can defeat Ye Bai in person, your personal reputation will skyrocket." The sidekick’s logic was clear, and Gao Tu immediately made a phone call: "Go, I want to challenge the Young Qilin Cup champion, make the arrangements." Damn it, what the hell. The Young Qilin Cup champion hasn’t been announced yet, how do you expect me to find out? "Right, three minutes. Get it done." Hearing the familiar words, the familiar tone, Butler Wang could hardly resist smashing the phone. Since Butler Wang left the He Family, he became a butler for the Gao Family. Everything was fine except for this fellow named Gao Tu, who always loved playing the almighty CEO. He was obsessed with CEO novels, cheesy romantic lines, how to charm women, as greasy as it gets. Butler Wang silently mourned: "It’s been ages since I last saw a smile of excitement on my face." Butler Wang responded with a simple "Got it" and hung up the phone. Gao Tu waited the entire morning before receiving Butler Wang’s affirmative gesture of completion. Then just as Ye Bai stepped out of the military school’s gate, he encountered a group of reporters. "Ye Bai, regarding your statement that you want to challenge the Phoenix Cup champion." Which jerk is trying to mess with me, spreading such nonsense. Do I really want to challenge the Phoenix Cup champion? Am I crazy? Have I eaten too much to go challenge the Phoenix Cup champion? Just then, a stretched Rolls-Royce pulled up. The car door opened, and a red carpet unfurled, spreading out in front. "Gao Tu is so handsome." "Gao Tu, I’ve heard the Young Qilin Cup champion wants to challenge you. Are you willing to accept the challenge?" That’s enough, Ye Bai thought! I didn’t sign up for this, and I’m not participating. "Whoever’s spreading rumors, I’ll send a legal warning as soon as I find out." Ye Bai didn’t want to be forced into a battle he didn’t initiate. If he lost, others would say he wasn’t skilled enough, and if he won, he might offend the person before him. He hoped this person wouldn’t be unreasonable—he had already refused clearly, yet they still insisted on challenging him. Ye Bai’s inner thoughts were grumbling. At this moment, Li Chen squeezed through the crowd. "Ye Bai, you have to stand up for me." "He had the nerve to call me trash." "Zhang Yiyi’s Fluorescent Jellyfish was severely injured by this guy named Gao Tu." When Gao Tu heard Li Chen say this, his eyes showed no remorse whatsoever. "It’s her fault her pet beast was too weak to withstand even one blow from my Gale Sparrow." "This is all Shen Mountain Middle School can produce," Gao Tu continued to taunt. This had escalated to a matter involving the school, so Ye Bai had no choice but to accept for the sake of the bigger picture. "Fine, Ye Bai, let’s have our match in this military school’s arena." "If you lose, admit you’re inferior to me." "From then on, whenever you see me, turn around and walk away." "If you win, I’ll wash my hair standing on my head." "Esteemed audience nationwide, please bear witness to our match." At this moment, Gao Tu was smiling broadly. He inquired about Ye Bai’s situation. Ye Bai is currently a Tier Two Pet Beast Master, with a contract to the Hundred-Change Silkworm and the Little Charcoal Dog. The strength of these two pet beasts isn’t very high. Ye Bai is excellent in research, but when it comes to pet beast cultivation, he’s just average. "Come on, let’s have an invigorating battle in front of a national audience." "Come forth, Gale Sparrow." A small, one-meter-long wind element pet beast appeared. Its wings were full of wind energy, with countless wind blades gathering around it, like stars surrounding the moon. "Come forth, Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm." Ye Bai released the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm, which had matured significantly over this period. [Level: Tier Three, First Stage] [Skills: High-speed Movement (Skilled) to attack the opponent at lightning speed. Gale (Skilled): Flaps wings, unleashing a storm. Sharp-beaked Drill (Skilled): Spirals rapidly in the air, with its beak turning into a drill to attack the opponent.

After a round of training, the defense of the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm has skyrocketed.
