Beast Tamer: I Can See Evolution Paths

Chapter 339: Chapter 339: One Penny… A Lot of Money Can Defeat a Hero!



Instead, after seeing the pet beast released by Connor, Asher touched his chin and showed a thoughtful expression.

Below the stage, the students also started a small discussion.

"Um...", Connor, who rarely appeared in such an environment surrounded by gazes, twisted his body slightly in discomfort, wanting to softly explain something.

Asher's gaze turned towards Connor.

Amber also looked at Connor.

Countless pairs of eyes from below the stage also fell on Connor.

Connor: *Body completely stiff*

He didn't dare to move.

"I'm also from the Pet Beast Evolution Research Department… but that, I…", Connor glanced at Amber beside him, then looked at his own pet beast, his expression showing a slight trace of awkwardness.

This year's freshman genius already said, it feels impossible to juggle two identities at the same time.

He still chose to charge forward…

"I just felt that I could give it a try," Connor felt it was still necessary to explain a few sentences about his decision.

He really wasn't acting on impulse when he chose to do this!

"Time allocation is indeed a very serious problem."

"So I chose Fox-Fox as my pet beast."

Just like how Taylor contracted the Honey Bug, which then evolved into the Fairy Butterfly.

Connor's family background was a bit better. With both parents willing to support him, Connor chose a Little Fire Fox with better aptitude.

"My plan is to evolve the Little Fire Fox, then take the evolution route of the Fox-Fox Queen."

This is an evolution route that doesn't require wasting more time and energy. Verified by Asher and very reliable.

Actually… after finishing, Connor glanced again at Asher.

If it weren't for the fact that Asher's pet beast Little Raven was said to be a specially mutated Oriental Peacock, and its evolution route hadn't been publicly disclosed, Connor would've rather contracted a Oriental Peacock.

What's wrong with copying?

Asher: "..."

Sometimes there's no need to explain so much.

Asher rubbed his forehead, saying with a wry smile, "Time and energy allocation is a matter of personal choice."

"There is no so-called right or wrong, just depends on the person. I have no more subjective opinion on this," As he spoke, Asher shook his head.

It's just the first time seeing someone follow the exact path he walked, step by step… a Beast Tamer? Pet Beast Professor in training? New generation?

Anyway, that's what it means.

Asher still felt a little… hmm, emotionally strange and complicated.

'Sigh! Being a role model isn't easy.'

'And this path really isn't an easy one to walk.'

Asher thought about it, then temporarily put aside those messy thoughts and said with a smile, "I just feel… this Fox-Fox, kind of makes me look like I'm cheating?"

Saying that, Asher laughed again, "After all, like you said, I previously researched the Fox-Fox Queen's evolution route."

"This shows I know this kind of pet beast, the Little Fire Fox, quite well."

Under such a premise, if Asher wanted to find a new evolution route for Fox-Fox, it doesn't seem like such a difficult thing?

"This still shouldn't be lumped together… right?", Hearing this, Connor was stunned for a moment.

Fox-Fox and Little Fire Fox can be the same thing?

Totally not. Don't listen to Asher make it sound so simple.

Pet beasts and their evolved forms, although related by evolution, it doesn't mean the same research approach applies to both.

There may be some overlap in thinking.

But more likely, the overlap is minimal, and trying to use the same approach will face a huge bunch of interfering factors.

Treating different forms of beasts as independent individuals and studying them independently, instead may lead to more desirable results.

Yet Asher is discussing Fox-Fox and Little Fire Fox together...

Connor narrowed his eyes.

If Asher weren't already a top-tier Pet Beast Evolution Professor who absolutely wouldn't make such an amateur mistake, Connor would've doubted Asher's professionalism.

At that moment, Amber, who had remained silent before, spoke, "Professor Asher really likes to joke. Anyone who really thinks like that, either hasn't learned their basic knowledge well or is just plain dumb."

Connor: "..."

Connor knowingly looked back at the audience.

The view is really wide.

From many people's faces, Connor saw complicated expressions that looked like they'd just been insulted.

Connor was silent.

Connor was shocked.

Connor didn't want to speak.

'Seriously? We're all college students.'

'There are actually people who think like that?'

Fox-Fox and Little Fire Fox?

Really treated as the same thing.

With classmates like these, looks like Connor is the next legend of Bluewind University.

Many people, when facing Connor's shocked yet delighted gaze, their first reaction was to look away.

Then one by one, they snapped back to reality.

Wait? What's this guy so happy about?

Is he happy about his luck? That can't be.

He should've been happy about that earlier.

Brains finally returned to their rightful places, and people began to think it through.

Then one after another, a realization dawned on their faces, followed by glares aimed at Connor.

'You brat, how dare you!'

They would absolutely never give Connor that chance.

Different from those people's shifting expressions and moods, Taylor, watching everything that had just happened, looked utterly bewildered.

He thought for a moment, then turned to the still-seated Charlie.

"Um…", Taylor hesitated to speak.

Mainly because Taylor didn't know how to describe what he had just witnessed.

"Don't worry too much," Charlie immediately understood what Taylor was struggling with.

He chuckled lightly, speaking indifferently, "But these guys really are… hmm, okay, I can't deny that for a moment even I thought Fox-Fox and Little Fire Fox were about the same."

As he spoke, Charlie touched his chin, showing an inappropriate expression on his face.

"Fox-Fox and Little Fire Fox?", Taylor nodded.

Although, he's not from the Pet Beast Evolution Research Department, but he still knows what's being discussed.

"Just because there's an evolutionary relationship between them doesn't mean they are one and the same."

"Not to mention Fox-Fox can evolve into Little Charm Fox, Little Electric Fox, and Little Demon Fox."

As he spoke, Taylor paused, as if recalling something, and added, "Oh right, didn't Fox-Fox recently gain a new evolution route into Little Ice Fox?"

All in all, Little Fire Fox used to be Fox-Fox.

But Fox-Fox might not necessarily become Little Fire Fox in the future.

The difference between the two is quite big.

Charlie nodded, "That's how it is."

"But…", Charlie thought for a moment and added, "If you look at it this way, the thinking for Fox-Fox's new evolution route is actually quite obvious, isn't it?"

Clearly, Charlie wasn't the only one thinking this.

Asher also meant the same.

"How should I put it?"

As the center of attention, Asher looked at the Fox-Fox in front of him and let out a barely audible sigh that almost no one noticed.

"Actually, pet beast evolution research professors have always had a very clear direction in exploring Fox-Fox's new evolution routes."

"That is, multi-attribute forms."

Since this is a class, Asher still needed to share some professional knowledge.

The people below the stage nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

They had already thrown away all of Connor's wild ambitions.

What? Argue with Connor? Totally unnecessary.

Anyway, they absolutely won't give Connor this opportunity, that's for sure.

Let Connor daydream all he wants wherever he is. It's not a big problem.

Connor: 'Heh, who says I'm definitely just daydreaming?'

Everyone: "..."

This guy is way too annoying.

"Fox-Fox is very cute, and Fox-Fox's body has strong adaptability to all kinds of elemental energies," Asher continued his analysis. From the few current evolution routes of Fox-Fox, it can be seen.

Fire attribute.

Thunder attribute.

Fairy attribute.

Special attribute.

Ice attribute.

Five different attribute evolution routes.

Then what about other attributes?

Fox-Fox can adapt to the ice attribute, theoretically it should also be able to adapt to the water attribute, right?

Then is it also possible for the wood attribute and wind attribute?

From this inference, the evolution routes of Fox-Fox are quite broad.

However... Inference is just inference.

Before the real evolution route is researched, it can only be called speculation, guessing, a possibility. At most it's just that Fox-Fox has slightly more possibilities by a billion little bits.

Asher's gaze fell on this Fox-Fox in front of him.

Although however, He really is quite confident about the other evolution routes of Fox-Fox...

Asher had known about this matter before, it's just that on one hand he had encountered too many beasts, so he didn't have time to research this; on the other hand, he really had no demand in this area.

Seeing Asher's expression as if he had fallen into thought, Connor looked a little hesitant, with a look of wanting to speak but stopping.

Connor: 'Professor Asher stopped here while speaking, he must have his reasons. How about I wait a bit more?'

'Is Professor Asher having some difficulties?'

'Forget it then!'

Anyway, he has already decided on Fox-Fox's next evolution route, why bother Professor Asher again?

Connor's brain was spinning non-stop.

Asher glanced over and immediately guessed what this guy was thinking in his head.

Seeing this, Asher revealed a rather helpless smile.

"Not to that extent."

"For other pet beasts I might not be able to speak this confidently, but Fox-Fox really isn't a difficult problem."

Asher said very calmly, his tone carried a kind of detached confidence, like "if not me, then who".

As if this topic wasn't even worth mentioning in his eyes.

Connor, being in close contact with Asher, was shocked.

The students below the stage weren't much better. One by one they held their breath, not knowing what could be said, what should be said next.

Asher smiled, "Actually, I had already looked into this kind of pet beast Fox-Fox before, and even had some ideas, just didn't bother to continue the research."

How arrogant. If this sentence hadn't come from Asher, students below would already be spraying.

Even though it came from Asher. There were still people below itching to spray.

They didn't rush to blurt it out, just wanted to wait and see what else Asher might say, so they could slap him in the face all at once.

Regarding this, Asher didn't mind. He calmly spoke, "Actually I think, the key point about Fox-Fox's evolution routes lies in stability."

Others: "?"

Connor: "?"

Everyone was confused, listening with half-understanding, grasping only bits and pieces. But looking at Asher's expression again, it was so certain, and extremely confident.

At this moment, Amber beside suddenly had her eyes light up, she looked excitedly at Asher, "Professor Asher, do you mean the stability between Fox-Fox and various attribute energies?"

"Mm... I think I kind of understand what you mean... but how to grasp this stability…", As Amber spoke, she fell into her own thoughts.

But hearing Amber's words, a small number of students in the pet beast evolution research department below revealed thoughtful expressions.

If that's what it means, they seemed to have some ideas too.

"You've hit the key point," Asher glanced at Amber, his eyes carried a bit of appreciation.

'To be able to analyze so much from the word "stability", it shows this student also has some of her own ideas about Fox-Fox's evolution route or evolution method.'

'This is very good.'

Asher nodded in great satisfaction.

Still just a student. To have this level of thinking was already not easy.

Thinking a bit, Asher organized his words and said, "First of all, we must understand that the reason Fox-Fox can evolve into different attribute forms is because of Fox-Fox's own special nature."

"The instability of energy attributes gives Fox-Fox unlimited possibilities."

"And how to make the unstable energy inside Fox-Fox reach stability, neither blindly pursuing quantity to create qualitative change, nor having too little energy to cause change, is the most crucial point of Fox-Fox's evolution."

"For example, for Fox-Fox to evolve into Little Fire Fox, a quantity of fire attribute energy crystal is needed," Among this, how much fire attribute energy crystal is needed, what herbs are used to balance it, so the energy crystal's effect doesn't backfire… etc. etc., every point is extremely crucial.

"According to this train of thought, Fox-Fox's wind, water, and wood attribute evolution routes become very clear," Asher said with great certainty, assurance, and affirmation.

Compared with special energy attributes like gold, rock, earth, poison, fighting, light, and dark, the wind, water, and wood attributes are indeed more natural and gentle.

And easier to quickly research.

Asher's gaze swept over Fox-Fox once again. Of course, for Asher, letting Fox-Fox evolve into the light attribute Little Sun Fox, or a Little Moon Fox of dark attribute, also is not some difficult matter.
