Chapter 332: Baobaoshi Evolution

Ye Bai had stayed in the Laboratory for a week.

At this moment, the Baobaoshi presented an appearance of ice and fire coexisting.

One side was as scorching as fire, while the other side was frozen with frost.

The side as passionate as fire possessed red stripes.

The side as cold as frost bore blue stripes.

Ye Bai could feel that the power of ice and fire within the Baobaoshi's body had reached a Weird state of equilibrium.

It was about to evolve.

As for the Lily Rose, after absorbing a massive amount of life aura, the petals within the flower bud were emitting an incomparably holy radiance.

"Half the time has already passed, and quite a few contestants have already nurtured their Pet Beasts to the verge of evolution."

Zhubinuo Boshi wore a satisfied expression.

He believed that scientific research had no national borders, so he was keen on grooming newcomers.

Ye Bai was precisely someone he admired.

However, even Zhubinuo Boshi could not understand Ye Bai's operations.

Baobaoshi had several forms, all of which had been researched by him.

It could be said that Zhubinuo Boshi was the foremost person in Baobaoshi research.

Baobaoshi was a Pet Beast discovered and cultivated by Zhubinuo Boshi, and he held the title of Father of Baobaoshi.

The reason he included Baobaoshi among the Pet Beasts for the assessment was also because Zhubinuo Boshi wanted to see if these youngsters had any way to develop a brand-new evolution route for Baobaoshi.

Although Zhubinuo Boshi could not understand Ye Bai's operations, he believed that Ye Bai would not act without a target.

Judging from his brief interaction with Ye Bai, Ye Bai possessed extremely high research talent.

So, he wondered if Ye Bai would bring him some different kind of surprise.

Just at this moment, an astonishingly bright light suddenly erupted from the Baobaoshi's body; it was going to evolve.

"Look quickly, contestant Ye Bai's Baobaoshi is about to evolve."

"Will it evolve into an Explosion Rock or a Blasting Rock?"

The host picked up the microphone and said with extreme excitement.

Currently, Ye Bai was the first person to have their Pet Beast evolve.

During the process of the Baobaoshi's evolution, Ye Bai continued to pour a large amount of fire-type and ice-type heavenly treasures into it.

The essence of Ice-Fire Rock evolution lay in balance.

The power of ice and fire had to maintain an absolute balance.

If it deviated even a little bit, the Baobaoshi would evolve into an Explosion Rock.

Ye Bai did not know if it was because of the competition or because of the Baobaoshi's evolution.

At this moment, he was extremely nervous.

If it could evolve into an Ice-Fire Rock, the Judges would certainly grant him a massive tilt in resources.

Especially Zhubinuo Boshi, after all, he held the title of Father of Baobaoshi.

If the Ice-Fire Rock evolution succeeded, he would definitely be scratching his head in frustration, and he would certainly want to figure out how the Ice-Fire Rock was evolved.

And whether it could be popularized for ordinary Baobaoshi.

Just like the Baibian Can.

When Ye Bai researched it back then, he also had to go through genetic testing to discover which side the Baibian Can's genes leaned toward.

Only then could he prescribe the right medicine and let the Baibian Can evolve into different forms.

By the same logic, Zhubinuo Boshi must be very curious about what was special about the Baobaoshi that Ye Bai was nurturing into an Ice-Fire Rock.

The time lasted for nearly a day and a night.

Ye Bai continuously poured in evolutionary materials.

Zhubinuo Boshi's eyes were also bloodshot; he could feel that Ye Bai had likely created a brand-new evolution route for Baobaoshi.

What an exciting moment this was.

He also gave the order to directly tilt resources toward Ye Bai.

Anjilina bit her lip with her sharp teeth.

Bright red blood flowed from her lip, and at this moment, her mouth was filled with the taste of rust.

She really wanted to curse her past self awake; why would she think that Ye Bai had run out of tricks?

This was clearly playing the pig to eat the tiger, wasn't it?

She, this tiger coming down the mountain, had been knocked to the ground by Ye Bai with a single punch, directly hitting her until she saw stars.

She was almost unable to stand steady.

Anjilina thought inwardly that Ye Bai was definitely a formidable opponent for the Beautiful Country.

If Ye Bai could not be completely suppressed, this would inevitably have a very serious impact on the Beautiful Country.

"No, in the third round of the assessment, I must send someone to take you out."

"Who told you to be so flashy; you are just like a peacock showing off in the street."

"The world is not lacking in capable people."

Anjilina decided to take Ye Bai out at any cost.

One man's meat is another man's poison.

The Yan Country had already produced a Su Qingxian and a Zhang Lingxue; it absolutely could not allow another Ye Bai to rise.

At this moment, the Ice-Fire Rock appeared.

Magma flowed on the left side of its body, and crimson stripes appeared, faintly emitting a wisp of black smoke.

The magma-covered surface is pitted and bumpy, and from time to time, magma drips onto the ground, emitting large amounts of thick smoke.

The right side of its body is covered in ice pillars, and it radiates waves of cold air.

【Name: Ice-Fire Rock】

【Gender: Genderless】

【Attribute: Rock/Fire/Ice】

【Level: Tier 4, Level 5】

【Skills: Molten Flame (Proficient): Large amounts of magma emerge from its body, which it then attacks opponents with by throwing.

【Evolution Route 1: Ice-Fire Giant Rock. Materials required for evolution are as follows: Extreme Cold Ice Rock, Magma Core; complete the final evolution in an environment of both ice and fire. Ice-Cold Rock can increase the success rate of evolution; Ice-Cold Rock is slightly different in color from Extreme Cold Ice Rock.】

The appearance of the Ice-Fire Rock excited Zhubinuo Boshi the most.

He looked at the Ice-Fire Rock with an excited face; if it weren't for the fact that this was currently a competition, Zhubinuo Boshi would have wanted to rush over and ask Ye Bai for the evolution recipe.

"This counts as a major discovery, finding a brand-new evolution route for the Baobaoshi."

"Well done, truly well done." Zhubinuo Boshi was extremely excited at this moment.

Just at this time, a large amount of evolution light also bloomed from the Lily Rose.

It radiated an aura of life, and after Ye Bai took a breath of it, he felt as if the cells throughout his entire body were cheering and seething.

The evolution method of the Lily Rose was gentler than that of the Baobaoshi.

The flower bud on top of its head gradually bloomed, and an incomparably holy white flower appeared.

Its body was also constantly lengthening.

During this process, Ye Bai continuously provided resources to the Lily Rose.

The Lily Rose, which was originally only half a meter tall, became more than twice as tall after evolving into the Life Rose.

It transformed from a little girl into a pure campus sweetheart.

"Damn, Ye Bai is just too awesome."

"To actually evolve two Pet Beasts at once, and the time interval is so short."

"Sometimes, I want to pry open his head to see what exactly is hidden inside; how is he so capable?"

There were quite a few compatriots studying abroad in the competition's audience.

Although they didn't know what Ye Bai's final score would be, there should be no problem with entering the third round of the competition.

【Name: Life Rose】

【Gender: Genderless】

【Level: Tier 4, Level 6】

【Trait: Light Healing: Standing under sunlight, the recovery speed will be twice that of an ordinary Pet Beast.】

【Evolution Route 1: Life Rose — Rose Emperor, materials required for evolution are as follows: Hundred Flower Fragrance, Huang Zhi Xin; after obtaining the approval of the hundred flowers, be crowned as Emperor.】

It seems that it is not so easy for this Life Rose to evolve into a Rose Emperor.

It also needs to obtain the approval of the hundred flowers, which increases the difficulty quite a bit.

And if the Ice-Fire Rock wants to evolve into an Ice-Fire Giant Rock, it is also lacking materials, and there is not enough time for evolution either.

At this stage, Ye Bai intends to strengthen the foundation of the Life Rose and the Ice-Fire Rock.

After both of these Pet Beasts successfully finished evolving, at the request of the staff, these two Pet Beasts were temporarily put back into their Beast Cards; the Judges would observe the state of these two Pet Beasts at close range and give corresponding scores.

"What a miraculous creation."

Looking at the Ice-Fire Rock, where lava and frost were perfectly combined, Professor Zhubinuo gave Ye Bai the highest score directly.

"Indeed not bad, evolving two Pet Beasts at once."

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of one of the Judges; he smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes, yet he gave Ye Bai a high score.

There were quite a few people on the scene who thought that Ye Bai could not be allowed to leave the Beautiful Country alive.

Otherwise, relying on Ye Bai's extraordinary talent, he would sooner or later allow the Yan Country to surpass the Beautiful Country.

"Ye Bai has truly given me a huge shock."

At this moment, Principal Maige was like an ant on a hot pan.

The wind will destroy the tree that stands out from the forest.

One cannot be too outstanding; in all things, leave a way out.

A researcher finding a brand-new evolution route for Pet Beasts is a great achievement.

But if one were to find two at once, that would be a peerless monster attracting a swarm of attacks.

"Sigh, I forgot to remind Ye Bai to keep a low profile before he came."

"The third round will definitely be wilderness survival; when that time comes, certain people from the Beautiful Country can naturally pull some strings."

"They can disguise themselves as contestants and enter the Huangdao to kill Ye Bai."

Many thoughts flashed through Maige's mind, but she rejected them one by one.

Helpless, Principal Maige could only seek help from the Yan Country.

However, she was stunned to discover that her signal had been blocked.

"Hehe, I already set up signal jammers on the competition grounds."

"The whole point is to focus on the element of surprise, and to make it impossible for you to transmit information out."

"This way, I can take the opportunity to finish you all off one by one."

Anjilina swirled the goblet in her hand, which was filled with wine that looked like fresh blood.

"Whew, as long as the information cannot be transmitted out, Ye Bai, you are just a fish I have trapped in my net."

"Only two outcomes await you."

"First, be obediently killed by me; second, work for the Beautiful Country."

"Science has no borders, but scientists do."

"We must have the talents that the Yan Country has, and we must also have the talents that the Yan Country does not have."

"Only in this way can we keep the national power of the Beautiful Country flourishing."

A cold glint flashed in Anjilina's eyes; she had already made the arrangements, and this time, Ye Bai would undoubtedly die.

Even the contestants who came to participate in the competition and entered the third round would be wiped out by her without hesitation.

Not long after, those two Pet Beasts were respectfully delivered by the staff.

"Researcher Ye Bai, these two Pet Beasts are yours."

"You can use the Bracelet to perform a temporary contract with the Pet Beasts."

"Except for not being able to achieve a telepathic connection with the Pet Beasts, everything else is similar to a Pet Beast you have contracted."

"You only need to use the Bracelet to point at these two Beast Cards to complete the temporary contract."

Ye Bai followed the staff's instructions and used the Bracelet to complete the contract with the Beast Cards.

Whew, finally, these two Pet Beasts have been brought to my side.

There is a lot to do next.

I wonder if anyone from the Yan Country has entered the third round.

"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, the results of the second round have been revealed."

"As per the old rules, if the Bracelet on your hand falls off automatically, it means you have no chance to advance to the third round."

"Please leave the venue in an orderly manner; we will now begin the third round of the assessment."

Many researchers walked out of the Laboratory in low spirits, their hair all looking like bird's nests.

"It can't be cultivated, it really can't be cultivated."
