Chapter 69 Shock and Conditions
These roars of beasts could easily shake the entire breeding base, not to mention the entire area within a hundred miles.
When the roar was heard, almost everyone in the training base could hear it clearly, including Chu Xiran and the other six people.
"It should have evolved successfully. Can we go over and take a look?" Niu Fenjin's eyes were almost filled with curiosity.
He really wanted to see what kind of pet Li Qian had evolved that could trigger three evolutionary lights with one evolution.
Naturally, Chu Xiran and the three admissions teachers also shared the same curiosity.
They all focused their eyes on Han Yuying.
Without a doubt, she was the only person who could make the decision on the scene.
Han Yuying didn't delay and immediately took out her cell phone and made a call.
The call was quickly connected, and after a brief conversation, Han Yuying nodded and said, "We can go over."
After getting permission, everyone rushed out without any hesitation.
Just as they hurried over, Li Qian came to fulfill his promise. He walked to Xiao Liu's side and said gently, "Xiao Liu, I told you before that as long as you can complete this evolution, I will contract you and make you my second pet."
Li Qian looked at Xiao Liu, who had evolved into a Frostfire Demon Salamander and reached the fifth elite level, and said solemnly: "Now, I can fulfill this promise."
As for whether Xiaoliu would refuse, Li Qian had never considered it.
After all, if it weren't for me, there would be no Xiaoliu today.
What's more, Xiaoliu is the kind of person who refuses to admit defeat and is never satisfied.
Only by following yourself can you achieve higher achievements.
Xiaoliu must be aware of this.
So Li Qian was not worried at all.
As it turned out, he didn't need to worry, because after he waved, Xiaoliu stretched out his head obediently without hesitation and allowed him to be petted.
Li Qian wasted no time.
He stretched out his hand and directly condensed the Beast Taming Contract, and touched Xiaoliu's forehead.
Instantly, brilliance shines.
When both parties are willing and committed, the contract is concluded effortlessly.
Feeling that Xiaoliu had established a mental connection with him, Li Qian nodded with satisfaction.
As expected of a pet with the potential to reach the ninth level of Overlord. Even though it was just a contract, and only at the fifth level of Elite, the feedback from the contract had greatly increased his physical fitness.
Li Qian even felt that his current physical fitness was not worse than that of some low-potential pets that had just entered the elite level.
What made him even more overjoyed was that Xiaoliu mastered two passive skills: "Fire" and "Frost".
The triggering mechanisms of these two passive skills are exactly the same.
That is, when the energy in the pet's body drops below half, it will be automatically triggered.
Once triggered, these two passive skills can double the power of fire skills and ice skills respectively.
The Frostfire Demon Salamander is already a rare pet with high potential. Now with the "Fierce Fire" skill and the "Frost" skill, its combat power has skyrocketed. It can't be said to be invincible at the same level, but it is probably not far behind.
Just when Li Qian was overjoyed, the sound of footsteps came from far away.
The footsteps naturally came from Chu Xiran and the other six people who were standing in front of the grove to get a glimpse of the situation.
After getting Li Qian's permission, they rushed over as soon as possible.
Then, he saw the giant lizard-like pet that was ten meters long and nearly four meters high.
As the vice president of the Training College of Jiangnan Beast University, Zhou Chubin's knowledge is obviously higher than that of the others.
Almost immediately after seeing the giant lizard, he recognized its identity, "This is... the Frostfire Demon Newt!"
It was precisely because he recognized the identity of this giant lizard beast that he lost his composure and uttered a voice of disbelief, "How is it possible! How could it be a Frostfire Demon Newt!"
Zhou Chubin's shout also made Xue Huaiyu and Ai Xiaolian react, "It's actually the Frostfire Demon Salamander. Rumor has it that this is a powerful pet with the potential to reach the ninth level of Overlord!"
The reason why it is called a "rumor" is that the Frostfire Devil Newt is extremely rare and there is only a very small chance of encountering it in the wild and dimensional rifts in Western Federation countries.
It has basically never been seen in the Eastern Federation countries, so you can imagine how rare it is.
It is also rumored that this rare salamander pet may evolve into the legendary Holy Spirit-level pet - the Ice and Fire Dragon.
Because of this, in the Western Federation countries, many breeders are studying this rare pet in the hope of unlocking its secrets.
Unfortunately, it seems that I didn’t hear anything that was gained.
Not to mention the evolution method from the Frostfire Demon Newt to the Ice and Fire Dragon, even the Frostfire Demon Newt itself, and what kind of pet it evolved from, has no clue.
This Frostfire Demon Newt seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
Now, seeing this scene, a Frostfire Demon Newt rubbing against Li Qian's palm so vividly and intimately, they finally got the answer.
But it was precisely because they got the answer that they were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
"Koi can also evolve into Frostfire Demon Newt!" Ai Xiaolian was in a daze, opening and closing her mouth, as if asking a question, or talking to herself.
"No wonder so many Western breeders have not yet figured out what kind of pet the Frostfire Demon Axolotl evolved from."
After being shocked, Zhou Chubin continued to talk and added with emotion, "It turns out that it evolved from the most common koi in our East."
"Yes, I was also quite surprised when I discovered some clues." Li Qian smiled, then nodded, walked over slowly, and spoke in agreement.
"Hello, Li Qian, my name is Zhou Chubin. I'm from Nandu City and I'm the admissions teacher at Jiangnan Beastmaster University." Zhou Chubin couldn't wait to speak and introduce himself.
After that, he made another request, "I wonder if I can take a look at the specific attribute information of this Frostfire Demon Newt."
In fact, with his strength level, it would not take much effort to check Xiaoliu's information. Even if he could not find out very detailed and clear information, he could still know most of it.
The reason why he asked was out of respect for Li Qian. If he rashly probed, it would likely cause the latter's disgust.
Li Qian did not hesitate and directly posted the information he saw through the Eye of True Vision.
Xue Huaiyu naturally also saw the information shared by Li Qian. After seeing it, she couldn't help but let out a surprised voice, "This, this, this... the attributes of this Frostfire Demon Salamander are... too amazing!"
"Student Li Qian, this time, whether you agree to study in our school or not..." As she spoke, she had already made a promise, which was considered to be the official start of the battle for talent.
She continued, throwing out what she thought was a generous temptation, "I can make an advance reservation here. I hope you can help us at Shazhou Beast Taming University to breed five Frostfire Demon Salamanders... No, as many as you can get, the price is negotiable, and it will definitely not be lower than the current market price."
Xue Huaiyu's solicitation instantly triggered a war for talent, and the atmosphere on the scene immediately became tense.
Zhou Chubin laughed and followed closely, making a mocking voice, "I wonder what your Shazhou Beast Taming University is planning, Mr. Xue?"
"Student Li Qian has not yet entered your Shazhou Beast Taming University. His current research results have nothing to do with your Shazhou Beast Taming University."
"The Frostfire Demon Salamander is a rare pet with a high price. If it were put on the pet store, it would probably be sold out in an instant. You can buy it at the market price. I will take as many as you can get."
"People who know think that you, Shazhou Beast Taming University, are supporting Li Qian, while people who don't know think that you are taking advantage of Li Qian."
After hearing this, Xue Huaiyu thought to herself that something was wrong. Instinctively, she introduced the cooperation model between some teachers and students of the school's cultivation college and the school.
In that case, the school has the right of first refusal, and the price is generally lower than the market price.
But Li Qian's situation is different. He is not yet a student of Shazhou Beast Taming University. At this moment, when talking about cooperation, both parties A and B are equal.
Under this premise, the conditions he proposed were not only unattractive, but also suspected of taking advantage of Li Qian.
After realizing what was happening, Xue Huaiyu did not explain but apologized directly, "I'm sorry, it was indeed me who was careless."
"There are some things that are not well thought out in this matter. So, we can discuss the cooperation after Li Qian enrolls."
"The condition I can offer here is that as long as it is within my ability, Li Qian can open it at will."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was targeted by Ai Xiaolian, who retorted: "Teacher Xue, these words seem to be full of sincerity, but in fact they are equivalent to saying nothing, which is suspected of being empty talk..."
"Teacher Ai is right!" Zhou Chubin agreed. At this moment, he and Ai Xiaolian formed a subtle alliance.
No matter which Beast Taming University Li Qian will choose to attend in the end, it is definitely a good idea to join forces to target one person first. It would be best if the Shazhou Beast Taming University could be eliminated early.
It's a pity that their methods may affect other high school students, but for Li Qian, who has lived two lives and is very mature, they have no effect.
He smiled and waved to Xiaoliu, who obediently stretched out his head and allowed him to be stroked. The scene looked quite shocking.
After stroking it for a while, he smiled and turned to look at the three admissions teachers, and said casually: "We will discuss the cooperation later. The most urgent thing is... to change the place..."
"Teachers, this is not the place to talk. How about this? Please follow me to the reception area of the base first, and then we can communicate one by one."
The three of them nodded when they heard this. This was indeed not the place to talk. No matter how much they argued here, it would be fruitless.
Ten minutes later, in a reception room on the third floor of Building No. 1 of the training base, Li Qian sat opposite Zhou Chubin and Chu Xiran.
Whether it was because of Chu Xiran's relationship or because Jiangnan Beastmaster University was his first choice, he should be the first to receive them.
This also reflects Li Qian's emphasis on and preference for Jiangnan Beastmaster University.
In this regard, both Xue Huaiyu and Ai Xiaolian could only smile bitterly. They could not compete at all in terms of hometown sentiment.
Of course, one’s preference is one’s preference, and whether one will eventually choose Jiangnan Beastmaster University depends on how sincere Zhou Chubin is.
When the conditions are not much different, Li Qian will naturally give priority to it, but if the conditions are too different, he doesn't mind changing the target.
In short, Li Qian knew that the choice of Beast Taming University must be made with extreme caution and rationality, and not be impulsive.
"Student Li Qian, I have to say that your performance today really surprised us. It's hard to imagine that you are still just a high school student."
In the reception room, Zhou Chubin was the first to speak, and he started with praise, "From Koi to Blue-scaled Dragon, this is an evolutionary problem that has troubled countless breeders. Not only did you solve it, you also learned from it and discovered the Frostfire Demon Newt, and you successfully evolved it."
“Such an amazing achievement is not something that even some cultivation masters can achieve.”
Faced with this somewhat exaggerated compliment, Li Qian smiled faintly and did not take it to heart. He responded casually, "Thank you for the compliment."
After praising him, seeing that Li Qian showed no emotion, Zhou Chubin didn't waste any more time and went straight to the point. "I think you should have known the reason why we came here, whether it's me, Xue Huaiyu, or Ai Xiaolian."
"Yeah." Li Qian nodded.
The reason why they came here was clear to everyone, so how could Li Qian not know it?
"I think you should know something about our Jiangnan Beast Taming University."
After a brief introduction, Zhou Chubin began to introduce Jiangnan Beast Taming University. "Our Jiangnan Beast Taming University was founded in 1895, and has a history of more than years..."
Although Li Qian had learned some knowledge about the Eight Greats in advance, that knowledge was fragmentary and unsystematic after all.
Now that someone was giving him a detailed and systematic introduction, he didn't mind the long-windedness and listened attentively.
"I came to Lingshui City this time just for you, Li Qian. Our Jiangnan Beastmaster University will definitely provide you with the best study environment..."
Next, Zhou Chubin spent about half an hour explaining in detail the conditions offered by Jiangnan Beastmaster University.
In general, the conditions are still very good and attractive, including full scholarships, tuition waivers, etc.
For Li Qian now, it has no appeal and he doesn't lack that little money.
In addition, students can freely choose courses and are eligible to participate in many of the school's evolutionary breeding research when they enter freshman year. The school provides breeding resources worth up to 10 million yuan each year, and independent research results do not need to be shared with the school. These conditions are quite attractive.
The conditions offered by Jiangnan Beast Taming University were very good, but Li Qian did not get carried away and agreed directly.
He still understood the principle of comparing prices from three stores, so he had to see what conditions the other two stores would offer.
He responded tactfully, "I feel the sincerity of Jiangnan Beastmaster University and the kindness of Teacher Zhou, but choosing Beastmaster University is a very important matter after all, and it concerns the future... So I'm sorry that I can't give you a direct answer. I still have to discuss it with my family..."
