Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 561: Chapter 556: The Arrival of the Association

The insect herb’s attack didn’t hit any vital parts, but everyone knew that if the initial attack had targeted the head, the Wind God Insect might have been dead.

Even now, the Wind God Insect hadn’t completely regained its senses, and even Yang Ming, who was a Beast Master, seemed a bit disoriented.

“Eh, it seems like I’ve caused some trouble.”

Upon seeing this, Bai Qi immediately understood that they were affected by the Eye of Nightmare and promptly asked Beta to help alleviate the situation.

Even Emperor Creatures, and even stronger Legendary Creatures, all had their own fears, and what the Eye of Nightmare did was simply bring out these fears.

Usually, the insect herb wouldn’t be able to achieve this, but both the Wind God Insect and Yang Ming’s perception was disrupted because of the influence of the insect herb, on top of the mental fluctuations when adapting to the Emperor’s Domain.

The insect herb seized on these and opportunistically used the Eye of Nightmare.

The destructive power of the Eye of Nightmare indeed far exceeded Bai Qi’s expectations. Looking at the condition of the Wind God Insect, it was clear that it was trapped and could not extricate itself.

Even worse, a sense of violence gradually appeared on the Wind God Insect, as if it was about to go berserk.

Seeing this, Beta immediately launched the Demon Subduing Mantra, trying to wake the Wind God Insect, but the Wind God Insect remained unmoved and instead locked its target on Beta.

Awuuuw!

(This debt has a debtor, and I’m innocent!)

Feeling the genuine killing intent from the Wind God Insect, Beta’s entire body stiffened and he quickly used the Indestructible Golden Body to defend.

Right at that moment, multicolored phosphorus fell from the sky, and the Wind God Insect, which originally had an attacking trend, gradually quieted down. It looked at its wounds, somewhat puzzled.

When did it get this injury? It didn’t notice at all.

“Uffie, you’re here too?”

Huangfu Wujiu, who was just about to stop the Wind God Insect, stopped his movement and asked as he saw the Heart Butterfly slowly descending from the sky.

“Heart Butterfly sensed a special spiritual power fluctuation, and I worried that you might encounter some extraordinary situations, so I came over to check.”

Uffie nodded her head and turned to the insect herb, “Heart Butterfly sensed some special spirit power from you. Was the spiritual fluctuation just now caused by you?”

“It was me”

Being stared at by the Heart Butterfly, the insect herb clearly felt a bit uncomfortable and instinctively released the Power of the Great Sun in defense.

“Don’t worry, I just noticed a lot of negative emotions suddenly produced, so I came over to check.”

Uffie smiled faintly, “However, I suggest you use this ability less often until you master the purifying technique.”

“I understand.”

Bai Qi nodded. Beta’s Demon Subduing Mantra could barely be related to purification, but it was still lacking. He would need to pay attention in the future if possible.

“Is this the only reason why you’re here?”

Huangfu Wujiu looked at Uffie and asked.

“Not entirely.”

Uffie turned sideways, pointed behind her and said, “Members of the Association are also here.”

“The Association is also coming?”

Bai Qi was taken aback. He had only heard that this military training was organized by the military and the Top Ten Academies. He did not hear that the Association had also come.

“The Association is different from you guys. They actually have a mission here.”

Huangfu Wujiu explained.

“On a mission? I see.”

Bai Qi nodded, but his curiosity about the people who came increased.

Who could it be who personally delivered the Heart Butterfly legend?

Under the curious gaze of Bai Qi and his party, the members of the Association appeared in full swing. Upon seeing the tall man leading the group, Bai Yuxiao’s face instantly turned pale.

“Damn it, why is dad here!”

Bai Yuxiao looked miserable, while Gu Shan patted Bai Yuxiao’s shoulder empathetically, as a form of comfort.

“Bai Chuanqi?”

Bai Qi was equally surprised, “How come you have time to leave the Six Towers?”

It was commonly known amongst all the Association members who had been to headquarters, that the Six Tower Masters hardly ever leave the Towers. Now with Bai Tongchen having appeared here, it was somewhat beyond Bai Qi’s expectations.

“Normally I wouldn’t have time, but circumstances are special now and I had to be present for this mission.”

Bai Tongchen glanced at the Wind God Mantis, which was healing, and with a raised eyebrow asked, “Who’s fighting? Who against who?”

“Bai Qi against Master Yang Ming and Master Sun Guanghao. It’s like a demonstration for the students.”

Huangfu Wujiu walked up to Bai Tongchen and his face suddenly became solemn. He stared steadfastly at Huangfu Wujiu, and Huangfu Wujiu did the same in return.

Watching the two men gaze at each other so deeply, Bai Qi suddenly felt a bit dazzled. However, he was quickly drawn back by the heated momentum between the two men.

“Master Duan, these two won’t start fighting, will they? I remember that Bai Chuanqi and Huangfu Chuanqi once vied over the title?”

Bai Qi couldn’t help but ask upon seeing the situation, but Duanmeng didn’t seem to want to explain, and just said that they wouldn’t start fighting.

Bang!

In a flash, both men suddenly threw a punch at each other. Their rigid fists collided straight on, causing a massive boom and even a wave of air blasted Bai Qi and the others messed around.

Are these really humans?

Bai Qi’s eyes twitched. He had met quite a few Titled Legends, but apart from being somewhat stronger, the others seemed normal.

However, the physical strength of these two was simply too outrageous.

“Hahaha… Huangfu, you’re as strong as ever, but this time I will definitely take the title of a fighting legend from you.”

“I’m always ready!”

They shared a laugh and gave each other a warm hug. However, to those watching, it seemed as if two ferocious beasts were embracing.

“Li Xusheng, do you think you can beat them in a physical fight?”

Tang Miao quietly walked up to Li Xusheng and whispered his question.

“I can’t.”

Li Xusheng immediately shook his head. Even though his physical strength had soared after awakening his bloodline, making him on par with ferocious beasts, he was still far less strong than these two legends of the Combat System.

After all, not only pet beasts underwent metamorphosis at the Legendary level, but Beast Masters as well.

“Oh right, you said Bai Qi fought against Yang Ming and Sun Guanghao? Judging by the outcome, did Bai Qi win?”

Bai Tongchen asked, looking at Bai Qi.

“That’s right. In the first match between the Sword Emperor and the Tiger Hunting Skeleton General, and the second match between the Great Sun Dragon Cicada against the Wind God Insect, Bai Qi won both.”

Huangfu Wujiu informed Bai Tongchen of the results of the two battles, leaving Sun Guanghao and Yang Ming feeling embarrassed.

They were respected seniors who had made their names many years ago, yet they had lost to a junior who had just advanced to the Sixth Stage. No matter how one looked at it, it was somewhat embarrassing.

“Really?”

Bai Tongchen’s eyes gleamed, and he burst out laughing.

“Well done, well done, not losing our association’s face. Big brother has really good eyes.”

Bai Tongchen did not hide his admiration for Bai Qi and lavished praise on him. Hearing his father’s words, Bai Yuxiao, who had already been a bit nervous, looked even more dejected and quietly moved away.

Having praised Bai Qi, it was now time to lecture him.

“Bai Yuxiao, come over here!”

A familiar roar rang out, and Bai Yuxiao stiffened. He managed to squeeze out a smile and said, “Dad, what a coincidence~”

“Coincidence my foot, I specially came to see you.”

Bai Tongchen picked up Bai Yuxiao like a baby chick and took a careful look at him. Seeing the five Rune Marks on the back of his hand, he finally showed a smile.

“Fifth Stage Beastmaster, good, seems like you didn’t slack off. I’ll let you off the hook this time.”

Bai Tongchen let Bai Yuxiao down, and Bai Yuxiao immediately displayed an expression of having survived a disaster, slapping his chest vigorously.

“Uncle.”

Bai Qiucha approached Bai Tongchen and greeted him.

“Hmm, Cha, your strength… are you about to reach the Sixth Stage?”

Bai Tongchen quickly noticed the change in Bai Qiucha’s strength.

“I should be close to it. It’s probably just a matter of days.”

Listening to Bai Qiucha’s words, Bai Tongchen’s gaze involuntarily turned back to Bai Yuxiao, making Bai Yuxiao, who had just relaxed, feel tense again.

“Bai Chuanqi, did the association come over for anything specific?”

At this point, Bai Qi came over and asked.

“Yes.”

Bai Tongchen nodded, pointed to the other members of the association behind him, and said, “The association has come to help the army build the Wasteland Wall.”

“Building the Wasteland Wall? The fourth wall?”

Bai Qi understood when he heard the words. Huangfu Wujiu had told him that they would finish building the fourth wall this month, so the association should have come to help clear out surrounding ferocious beasts.

After all, the location of the third wall was already considered tribal territory. The fourth wall was bound to have some conflicts with the tribes, so it made sense to ask the association for help.

“Correct, your training class should also go, considered as joint training.”

Bai Tongchen nodded and said, “By the way, the association also wants to test out the actual combat power of the new pet beasts.”

“New pet beasts? Could it be…”

Bai Qi paused, but he quickly understood.

Ancient Species.

It had been several months since the Jiuli Group officially announced the resurrection of Ancient Species. However, they were still not in circulation within the Federation. Aside from the association and some Federation personnel, hardly anyone could contract with Ancient Species.

Listening to Bai Tongchen, was the association planning to roll out the Ancient Species?

“Although the Ancient Species have been successfully resurrected, it is still unclear how much they can contribute on the battlefield. This is a good opportunity to test them properly.”

Bai Tongchen smiled and said, “And among the people who came this time, there are a few you know.”

“Acquaintances?”

He had noticed Li Mu, but Bai Qi hadn’t noticed anyone else.

“You rascal, Bai Qi, how dare you forget the head of our stronghold! Take this!”

A familiar voice came from the association’s team, followed by an energy spear burning with fire which was thrust directly towards Bai Qi.

“That voice? Is it Sister Zhou?”

Bai Qi was somewhat surprised as he looked at the woman charging towards him. He instinctively moved his body slightly to avoid the strike.
