Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 553: Chapter 548: Fighting God Ape

“Very good.”

Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. In fact, the combat ability of these students wasn’t weak. With their numbers in place, even if they encountered a Six Stage fierce beast, they might still have the potential to fight.

Unfortunately, though, upon encountering an undying entity like Gamma, their only option was to retreat.

If it were someone else…well, it seemed it wouldn’t matter who.

Bai Qi looked towards the arena, where Gamma had already switched to the Holy Light Form and had started healing the wounded pets. From his relaxed appearance, one couldn’t tell that he had just been in a battle.

Because of this, the gazes of the students towards Bai Qi had finally changed.

“Since you all have no objections to Master Bai Qi serving as the team leader, we can now start assigning positions.”

Wang Huai walked to Bai Qi’s front, saying, “For easier management, I need to choose four people from among you to serve as squad leader and team leader.”

“Master Bai Qi, what are your thoughts?”

“Me?”

Bai Qi pondered for a moment, “Let Bai Qiucha serve as the squad leader, and…well, these three should serve as the team leaders.”

The performance of these three was better than most of the academy’s students, they even surpassed Gu Shan and Bai Yuxiao because of their king-level pets. There was no problem in them serving as team leaders.

“Alright, Bai Qiucha will be the squad leader, and Huangfu Song, You Xi, and Gan Li will be team leaders.”

Wang Huai nodded and formally made the appointment, then divided the academy into classes.

For easier management and command, a squad was divided into three independent classes, which was also a normal military structure.

“Huangfu? Is this Huangfu Song related to Huangfu Chuanqi…”

Bai Qi became somewhat curious. It seemed that the pet Huangfu Song had summoned was an evolved Ice Demon Ape, the Ice Martial Arts Ape. This was the same species as Huangfu Chuanqi’s main pet.

“No, Huangfu Song is an orphan taken in by Huangfu Chuanqi, and he inherited his surname. It’s said his parents were both soldiers, but they’ve both sacrificed.”

Wang Huai shook his head, remarking.

“The descendants of a military family.”

Bai Qi understood, feeling a family full of soldiers was very respectable.

Soon, Wang Huai finished dividing the groups, and Captain Bai initiated the morning formal training.

And these things didn’t really concern Bai Qi anymore.

…

Afternoon.

After a morning of teambuilding, the members of Team Bai have at least formed a basic team and there were no longer factional divides.

However, in comparison with the Black team, they seemed to lag behind.

“With that momentum, I’d believe it if they all came from the military.”

Bai Qi admired the vibrant Black Team.

“It’s quite normal. General Qi is very famous for his soldier training skills. If it wasn’t the first batch of military training students, General Qi wouldn’t have needed to come.”

Huangfu Wujiu chuckled, saying.

“That makes sense.”

Bai Qi nodded slightly. Engaging a general to train a team did seem like overkill.

“But Huangfu Chuanqi, do you really have to keep following me like this? It’s just an outdoor training.”

Bai Qi glanced at Huangfu Wujiu who kept not leaving his side, and said somewhat helplessly.

“It’s necessary.”

Huangfu Wujiu nodded seriously, “Since I promised your teacher and Wang Chen to protect you, I can’t be slack.”

“So, during the official training, as long as you leave the Wasteland Wall, I will follow you until I safely escort you back to Gusu City.”

“Alright then…”

Seeing Huangfu Wujiu’s serious expression, Bai Qi nodded somewhat reluctantly.

Although having a Titled Legendary following him wasn’t a bad thing, standing next to the two-meters-tall Huangfu Wujiu, Bai Qi always felt a bit odd.

He should have brought Nicholas.

No matter, the main goal for today was to observe the combat situation of the special forces members in the two teams and design the Rune Mechanical Armour as a result, so it wasn’t really his turn to fight.

Soon, the group left the Number Three Wall.

“Your training mission for today is to seize this valley within the stipulated time.”

Qi Zhao presented a map, pointing to a marked out valley on it, “Your two teams need to depart from here. Find the valley before any accident occurs. The first team to occupy the central position of the valley will get extra points.”

“So, set off!”

As soon as the words dropped, the two teams began their journey, moving towards the distance in full force.

“Attack the valley?”

Upon seeing this, Bai Qi promptly summoned Delta, followed the troops and released Schuck’s data collector to record their exact battle data.

The valley wasn’t particularly far from Wall Number Three, and both teams reached their target location in about half an hour.

The objective of this mission was now before their eyes.

“Breaking Formation Troops and Charging Troops?”

Bai Qi thought of Sikong Po whom he had met in the Angel Secret Realm. The breaking formation troops led by Sikong Po showed considerable fighting power.

These creatures were naturally social and could launch an astonishingly destructive charge all at once.

The arrival of the two teams quickly attracted the attention of the breaking formation troops. These belligerent creatures stopped their leisure activities, formed formations, and initiated an attack.

The valley entrance was wide, allowing more than ten troops to charge in simultaneously. These troops were obviously well-accustomed to this environment and quickly formed a mighty cavalry charging.

“Defensive team, prioritize the use of interference skills to reduce their charging speed.”

“Long-range team, go all out and try to reduce their numbers.”

“Melee team, initiate contact, and seize the initiative as best as possible.”

As the squad leader, Bai Qiucha quickly issued the instructions, and Huangfu Song and the other three class leaders efficiently implemented his commands.

All the troops were wild beasts, and they were merciless. If they failed, their fate might be death.

Under the command of Captain Bai, both teams launched their attack, with the Star Mechanics Academy engineers, who had performed mediocrely in the initial selection, finally showing their power.

In a flash, cannon fire roared, all sorts of live rounds and energy cannon weapons materialized in the hands of these engineers. The massive war machines even surpassed the Bai team and charged directly into the breaking formation troops.

Those who were judged as failures were holding grudges.

Seeing this, Bai Qiucha was not worried. “There’s no need to rush,” she said. “Continue to follow the previous instructions.”

It was very dangerous to get close without reducing their speed as the breaking formation troops that led the charge could reach a very high speed in a short distance.

Sure enough, the melee-type war machines were punctured by long spears the instant they made contact with the breaking formation troops, causing a violent explosion. But they successfully stopped the first wave of the charge.

Suicide attacks like these were expected from suicidal mechanical creations dispatched by the engineers.

At this moment, the melee team led by Huangfu Song reached the battlefield.

“Melee team members, prioritize attacking their limbs to deprive them of their mobility.”

The Ice Martial Arts Ape effortlessly severed the limbs of a breaking formation troop. The beast’s level wasn’t low, but it was no match for the Ice Martial Arts Ape.

“Who would’ve thought that Huangfu Song is so strong?”

Bai Qi nodded in agreement. He couldn’t help but admire the Ice Martial Arts Ape, which altered its weapon’s shape and fought valiantly among the troops.

“Of course you won’t figure it out,” Tang Miao chuckled, “After all, not everyone is like you, not even giving others a chance to perform.”

“Uh …”

Bai Qi scratched his head awkwardly, knowing that Huangfu Wujiu was still there. Couldn’t he stop trying to make him a potential enemy?

“Huangfu Song’s talent is average, but his hard work is commendable. Unfortunately, the Ice Martial Arts Ape is already at the highest evolution level of the Ice Demon Ape. It is nearly impossible for him to improve further.”

Huangfu Wujiu displayed an air of helplessness. He turned to Bai Qi and said, “These Special Forces reserves members all have similar problems, so I hope you can help them progress further.”

“Progressing further is a bit difficult,” said Bai Qi while scratching his head. The Ice Martial Arts Ape was already at the King-level. If it was to progress further, would it need to become Emperor-level? He hadn’t figured that out for himself yet.

“Don’t worry, I don’t mean for you to help them undergo racial evolution. I just hope that you can help make up for some of the weaknesses in their pets,” Huangfu Wujiu replied. “After all, my Fighting God Ape was born due to mutation evolution. I couldn’t find a practical method for all these years. The task now falls on you.”

“Mutant evolution … the Fighting God Ape …”

Bai Qi understood. Indeed, explaining the birth of mutant species had always been a challenge, let alone mutant evolution.

While his parents used the Super God Evolution No. 1 Elixir and Rune Evolution to cultivate directional growth, they still lagged far behind compared to mutant species.

However, he would really love to see a creature born of mutant evolution. Maybe it could quickly fill the last one percent of the Evolution Egg.

Just then, a deafening galloping sound came from the valley. The breaking formation troops that had been engaged in battle see the creatures marching towards them, and quickly moved aside to make way.

“This aura, is it an Emperor-level creature?”

Bai Qiucha, who was at the highest point in the sky, was the first to notice the gigantic horse-like creature charging from within the valley. He immediately disarmed and planned to defuse the creature’s charge.

Just as he was about to act, a ray of golden light descended from the sky. He saw a giant ape holding a long stick standing on the horse-like creature.

Legendary Creature – Fighting God Ape!

“An Emperor-level creature has managed to infiltrate our ranks. The construction progress for Wall Number Four must be accelerated.”
