Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Chapter 146: Gardener Dragon – Nicholas

“Join the Holy Relic Tower?”

Upon hearing Xiao Zhang’s invitation, Bai Qi was somewhat tempted.

He had already confirmed that the Evolution Egg had the ability to acquire ferocious beast skills by fusing materials. If he joined the Holy Relic Tower, he would indeed have many more opportunities to come into contact with various kinds of materials.

Moreover, the Holy Relic Tower involved not only various types of resources but also various inheritances of treasures, which were related to his rune studies.

However, looking at Yi Xiaowei’s demeanor, the members of the Holy Relic Tower seemed to spend most of their time studying various resource materials, without much time to go out?

Seeing that Bai Qi seemed hesitant, Xiao Zhang didn’t rush him, saying, “You can think it over slowly, after all, there’s still a lot of time for training. Perhaps, others might invite you too.”

Bai Qi nodded. The benefits of the Six Towers were undoubtedly good, but as to which tower to join, comparisons had to be made.

“Alright, the rest of you, continue with your dissections. If you have any questions, you can ask me.”

Xiao Zhang looked around and immediately urged the others to start dissecting. The original neat dissection room suddenly became bloody.

For courses one dislikes, time always seems to pass especially slowly.

After the dissection room turned into a slaughterhouse, Xiao Zhang finally ended the dissection class.

“Today’s practical dissection has come to an end. Everyone take a ten-minute break. The next class, I’ll teach you the cultivation and maintenance of plant attribute resources.”

The cultivation and maintenance of plant attribute resources?

This resource processing class is full of practical knowledge.

I wonder if there will be care methods for the Angel’s Flower and Dragon Soul Grass. If there are, he could be self-sufficient.

“Bai Qi, you are really interested in this resource processing class, aren’t you tired?”

Zhou Yan massaged her somewhat sore shoulder and said, “Even I’m a bit overwhelmed, how come you’re still so energetic?”

Bai Qi glanced at the Giant Claw Rat on Zhou Yan’s table, which had been virtually minced, and said, “Cough, cough, not everyone can handle it as thoroughly as you, senior.”

The dissection knife was made of a special metal that could easily cut through the skin and flesh of the Giant Claw Rat, but it was somewhat tough to cut through bones.

But Zhou Yan had forcefully turned the dissection knife into a bone-chopping knife. Except for some parts that were really hard, most of them had been minced by Zhou Yan.

That was truly a massacre…

“That’s right. I was born with a unique physique. Do you think just anyone can use a skill like infusing with the Soul of the General?”

Zhou Yan completely ignored the implication in Bai Qi’s words, held her head up in a very arrogant manner, but suddenly noticed Lu Qing leaving with a stern face.

“Qing’er, where are you going? The next class will start soon.”

“Skipping class.”

Lu Qing didn’t turn her head back and left after throwing out her words, leaving Zhou Yan more confused.

“What happened to Qing’er? It’s not an inconvenient time, is it?”

“Cough, cough… Sister Yan, Sister Qing probably can’t stand the environment here.”

Bai Qiucha looked at the dissecting table next to Zhou Yan. The Giant Claw Rat on it was still intact, the dissection tools hadn’t moved at all, but the whole table was splattered with the rat’s blood.

This table belonged to Lu Qing, and the blood naturally splashed over from Zhou Yan’s side.

“I see… I’ll take Qing’er out more often. She’s become timid from all this studying.”

Big sister, that’s because your actions were too exaggerated.

Bai Yuxiao and others rolled their eyes, while Xiao Yuan came over to Bai Qi and said, “Bai Qi, are you really considering joining the Holy Relic Tower?”

Even though it was just the first day of formal training, Xiao Yuan didn’t doubt that Bai Qi would receive invitations from the Six Tower Masters. The only difference was which one he would choose.

Bai Qi said, “We’ll see. There’s still plenty of time.”

Xiao Yuan nodded and said, “Yes, but you can also consider the Moon Night Tower when the time comes. Although it’s not as wealthy as the Holy Relic Tower, it does have some unique advantages.”

Is this an invitation to join the Moon Night Tower?

Bai Qi was taken aback, while Bai Qiucha explained, “Master Xiao is Xiao Yuan’s grandfather. He will basically develop towards the Moon Night Tower in the future. So, his invitation counts.”

Okay, another legendary second generation.

No, it’s the third generation.

Bai Qi looked around and found that apart from Gu Shan, others around him were either legendary second generations or apprentices of some masters. There weren’t many who were self-made.

No, he was patronized by Nicholas, so he could be counted as a legendary second generation.

The ten-minute break quickly passed. Xiao Zhang appeared again with a thick book in his hand. His demeanor had completely changed from a crazed butcher to a genteel scholar.

“Fellow students, next we will learn…”

The day’s classes finally ended, and all the students were exhausted. Some even went straight back to the healing cabins to replenish their strength.

“I thought dissection was troublesome, but it turns out that plant cultivation is even more so.”

Zhou Yan stretched and looked at Bai Qi and the others, who were about to disperse, and said, “To celebrate the successful conclusion of the first day of training, I invite you all to eat the specialty dish of Minghe Mansion, Braised Dragon Lion Head, how about it?”

Upon hearing Zhou Yan’s words, Xiao Yuan couldn’t help but smile wryly, saying, “Let’s forget it. I don’t think I’11 be eating meat for a while.”

Although Xiao Zhang’s cooking skills were indeed excellent, he couldn’t stand the brutality of the students, especially Zhou Yan, who had issued the invitation. Her “work” was bound to leave a mark on many people.

Xiao Yuan declined, and Li Mu, who had been coming and going with Xiao Yuan, naturally did so as well. As for the brothers Bai Qiucha and Bai Yuxiao, they ran away quickly.

“You’re useless. Not enthusiastic about eating and mentally challenged; someone invites you to a meal, and you don’t want to go,”

Zhou Yan said in despair, “Bai Qi, Gu Shan, won’t you go?”

Bai Qi shook his head and replied, “I have to visit the Green Dragon Secret Realm. I can’t join you.”

After speaking, Bai Qi drew out the pendant of the Green Dragon Secret Realm and immediately disappeared from the location.

“Boring. Gu Shan, accompany me for a meal!”

Zhou Yan smacked his lips, dragged Gu Shan, and walked off without noticing Gu Shan’s hesitant expression.

If I refuse now, I’ll probably be beaten to death…

Green Dragon Secret Realm.

Just as Bai Qi entered the secret realm, he saw Nicholas rushing toward him, which made his heart skip a beat.

Did this creature see something on TV and awaken its carnivorous instinct? Fortunately, Bai Qi’s concern didn’t materialize. Nicholas laid pitifully in front of Bai Qi, saying, “Bai Qi, you finally arrived, this dragon was getting bored to death.”

“Bored? But I’ve stored hundreds of TV shows in the holographic viewer!” Feeling embarrassed, Nicholas scratched his head and pointed at the shattered holographic viewer, saying, “Well, this dragon accidentally smashed the viewer while watching exciting scenes.”

“Could you give this dragon a durable replacement?”

Bai Qi’s eyes twitched, thinking if televisions or projectors that could withstand an attack from a legendary giant dragon had even been invented yet.

“Durable ones might not be feasible. Next time I’ll bring you a few extra ones.” Nicholas nodded repeatedly, then rested his head on the ground, saying, “Please hurry, I’m dying of boredom.”

Brother, you’ve been dormant for centuries, and now, after merely half a day without TV, you’re exaggerating like this?

You’ve adopted this decadence too quickly.

Bai Qi sighed helplessly. It’s easier to transition from frugality to extravagance than vice versa, and surprisingly that even applied to a giant dragon.

He should probably introduce some high-class hobbies to this creature.

Bai Qi took out a thick book from his bag and gave it to Nicholas, saying, “A custom TV will take some time to deliver. In the meantime, you can read this book.”

“Read?”

Nicholas curiously pinched the book, which was smaller than him. He brought it close to his eyes, squinting, “Can you get me a bigger book? The font size is too small. My eyes are straining.”

Bai Qi sighed helplessly. He had to compromise for this legendary giant dragon. Everything had to be supersized.

Wait, legendary?

“Nicholas, aren’t you a legendary creature? You should be able to transform, right?”

Nicholas looked at Bai Qi in confusion and asked, “Transform? What’s that?”

Riiight… Nicholas is a complete nerd. How could he know about transforming?

“Why don’t you give it a try? Imagine transforming into a human.”

“Imagine looking like a human?”

Nicholas thought for a moment, glanced at his colossal body, then looked at Bai

Qi, closed his eyes, and started emitting faint green lights.

Could it be working?

As the light from Nicholas’ body became increasingly bright, a sense of anticipation filled Bai Qi.

Finally, Nicholas opened his eyes and looked at Bai Qi saying, “It seems like it won’t work!”

Bang!

Bai Qi stumbled and fell to the ground. It isn’t a problem if it doesn’t work, but there was no need to kick up such a fuss.

“Nevermind, if I can meet the Six Tower Masters later, I’ll ask them.”

Bai Qi rubbed his temples, suddenly remembering the afternoon lesson, and asked, “Are you interested in plants?”

“Plants?”

Nicholas nodded, “We, the green dragons, love natural energy. Of course, we love plants.”

Listening to Nicholas’s affirmative reply, Bai Qi showed a grin, “Then, should I relocate some plants that don’t exist here? Aren’t you planning to move to the valley?”

“Great! I’m fed up with trees and grass here.”

Nicholas nodded continuously. Bai Qi immediately relocated a few plant specimens like Angel’s Flower from the secret realm.

“How do you find these? Although they may not be easy to grow, I will bring a greenhouse next time.”

“Why won’t they survive?”

Nicholas looked at Bai Qi curiously and spat on Angel’s Flower. The previously wilted Angel’s Flower started growing quickly, even producing Angel Fruits.

Jade Breath also can be used like this?

A smirk appeared on Bai Qi’s face as he patted Nicholas, “I’ve decided, from now on, I’ll call you Gardener Dragon Nicholas.”
