99 - I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets!

------ ------ What kind of new conceptual condition is this? Three per item, is it? So does this count as 3 or 9 conditions!!!? Especially the last item on the list, a video of 50 types of throwing battles, the little fox was completely at a loss. Are these really related to the evolution path of the Lunar Gem Hammer? What exactly is Lian Xing trying to cultivate...? However... Even though these conditions are extremely arduous, if they can truly neutralize the threat posed by that royal-class beast, for the sake of her promotion dream, the little fox is reluctantly willing to try. Capturing that royal-class catastrophe alone would more than cover these resource costs just from its bounty~~~~ That is, provided Lian Xing has a way!!!!!! —— —— Half an hour later, leaving the president's office, Lian Xing returned to the guest area of the Ten Colossi Academy. Unlike the treatment and status of other academies, the luxury and architectural style here were unimaginable to ordinary students, giving an impression of beauty that even a high-level Beast Master could hardly afford to inhabit. In the middle of the corridor laid with lavish red carpets, as Lian Xing was about to return to the resting area of Youlan Academy, a group of girls with human parts like fish tails and fins suddenly appeared from the front. The dominators of White Moon State, the Illusory Sea Academy!!! At this moment, they had just registered their information and, quite unfortunately, crossed paths with the blonde girl. Including Ten Colossi’s Tianquan, their expressions were somewhat unnatural. The proud Illusory Sea Academy always considered itself the strongest Beast Master Academy and never cared about the resistance and struggles of other academies. Still, today they were unexpectedly overshadowed by Lian Xing and decided to avoid conflict, suffering tremendous humiliation. Now, they all harbored a simmering anger, waiting to unleash it in full force when they finally face off against Youlan Academy in the final stage. However, now was not the time for a confrontation... So, led by Tianquan, the mixed-blood mermaid girls acted as if they didn’t see Lian Xing, their faces slightly stiff as they walked straight past the blonde girl’s white silk-clad legs. However... At that moment. Lian Xing’s curious gaze was always following the pearl shell atop Tianquan's head, and just as Tianquan’s figure was about to leave sight, she couldn’t help but call out. “Dried Moon of the Sea, so this is the reason you avoid fights, huh?” “Relying too much on such an unreliable inferior ability will keep your evolution stagnant~~~” “......” “......” Hearing this, Tianquan's body shuddered slightly as she was almost out of earshot, blue water-like pupils contracting intensely, revealing a hint of dread. Quickly feigning composure, she left as if nothing had happened. About ten minutes later, upon returning to Illusory Sea Academy’s resting area, amidst her teammates' puzzled glances, Tianquan immediately retreated to a private suite, carefully taking off the shell ornament atop her head, speaking in an incredulous tone. “Master, she recognized you!!!?” “......” “No need to worry——” The pearl shell atop Tianquan squirmed a bit, its tone slightly odd. There was never an absolute necessity to hide. It was just that it was assumed no Beast Master in White Moon State would recognize its species, hence the habit of running openly without concealment until suddenly being called out, making it feel momentarily uneasy. Dried Moon of the Sea, an exceedingly rare and special species in this beast-mastering world, not as individual entities. They can exist as many memory-sharing fragmented parts, and with the passage of time, these parts multiply, eventually spreading across all states of various grades, amassing thousands of masters, thus possessing much more knowledge and intelligence than other Beast Masters. Although gaining more evolutionary insights isn’t exactly a disadvantage, Beast Masters possessing Dried Moon of the Sea tend to act less like Beast Masters and more like beings guided through upgrades, gradually losing independent thought and the resolve to fight tooth and nail... Therefore, Dried Moon of the Sea has always remained at the dominator tier in its evolution stage for many years, with no master managing to advance her to the royal tier. Those Beast Masters who ascended to the royal tier found themselves like headless flies, unable to understand how to continue evolving their main battle beasts after Dried Moon of the Sea’s relevance diminished, let alone uncover further evolutionary insights for her~~~ At this moment, observing the continually changing complexion of Tianquan, Dried Moon of the Sea spoke solemnly. “Rest assured, Xiaoyuan, your path of evolution won’t come to a halt.” “Think about it, Stormy Waters, your senior, became a protector of an 8-level state at a young age.” “Eighteen years ago, a distinguished disciple of mine entered the top ten in the 7-level state Lingdi Sect contest and earned the title Lingxi.” “Thirty-four years ago, my original owner was fortunate enough to engage in a life-and-death battle with a monarch and received praise and admiration from the monarch before their demise.” “So, what’s wrong with a step-by-step evolution...?” “On the contrary, these low-level states’ small fry love to aim too high, fantasizing about kings and emperors' views even before touching the royal tier’s threshold.” “Ten years from now, looking back, these people will merely be inferior stepping stones~~~~” “......” “......” “Master, you’re right...!!!” Hearing this, Tianquan pondered and nodded. Though her current lineup and system were entirely orchestrated by Dried Moon of the Sea, it indeed allowed her to effortlessly dominate the top position among White Moon State’s Ten Colossi. As for the previous arrogant remarks of that blonde girl, she naturally planned to vindicate her master’s name through her full-blown battles in the upcoming competition...!!! Moreover, considering the long haul. Three years later, if she were to train anew according to Master’s resource and route planning, Lian Xing, who is a formidable rival now, might have abandoned her evolutionary path by then, settled into marriage, and become occupied with household chores and child-rearing. Life’s constant evolutions, everything changes with time~~~ —— —— Beast Association Headquarters, Guest Area, Youlan Academy Resting Area. Just after reclining in her exclusive room for a short time, Lian Xing received an official package delivery. Upon swiftly unwrapping it, the star pattern in her eyes began to shimmer. “Unexpectedly, White Moon State’s Beast Association is quite well-heeled...” “In just an hour, half the conditions have been met~~~” “Now, let’s commence with Lunar Gem Hammer’s final evolution!!!” “......” “......” As she finished speaking, Lian Xing stored a large number of dominator-tier crystals and high-tier crystals into her beast space before picking up a small chip. This small chip contained video footage of 50 types of throwing-type beast battles. Could watching battle videos actually facilitate beast evolution...? The little fox had never heard of such a bizarre evolution condition. However, this was already the simplest and quickly fulfilled condition when compared to others, so she merely pulled some records and documentation from past White Moon State leagues and handed them over to Lian Xing without hesitation. Shortly after, Lian Xing uploaded all the data to her virtual wristband, entering virtual equipment’s holographic viewing mode with Moonlight Rabbit. The chip was filled with combat footage of all kinds of throwing beasts that had appeared in previous White Moon State leagues. Dominator Tier·Biological Type·Four-Armed Dragon Ape! Dominator Tier·Biological Type·Crimson Bloody Grasp! High Tier·Biological Type·Barbaric Beast Bone! High Tier·Biological Type·Wind Horn Beast! ...... ...... Faced with the dazzling list, Lian Xing casually opened the first video and began watching each one with Moonlight Rabbit. However, as they watched, Moonlight Rabbit soon donned a look of anguish, its previously calm expression became somewhat troubled. Watching these technically inferior and crude throwing techniques, it felt its force exertion becoming disrupted without noticing anything else beneficial or worth learning. Even its originally mastered muscle memory for throwing started to deteriorate— [Moonlight Rabbit's Throwing Technique Degrades, lv72→lv71] [Moonlight Rabbit's Throwing Technique Degrades, lv71→lv70] A few hours later, as Moonlight Rabbit’s condition deteriorated further, the six lumps at the root of her ears began to swell and fester, pulsating like enormous tumors. Finally, after viewing 40 of these battle videos, something special happened to Moonlight Rabbit. With a loud “bang,” The six grotesque lumps burst open, spraying blood and pus everywhere. **Chapter 75: Fourth Seat of the Ten Colossi, the Moon Rabbit Lian Xing!!!!!!** "Bang!!!" Inside the room, a rather unsettling sound echoed. The lumps at the base of the Moonlit Gem Hammer's ears suddenly burst open, and pus and blood splattered everywhere in the room. Lian Xing, standing nearby, was covered in the spray as well. Her originally shiny and silky blonde hair became sticky and damp. Thankfully, the body fluids of the Moonlit Gem Hammer were entirely pure white, so visually it wasn't nauseating, nor did it carry any unpleasant or fishy odor.
