[13. The moss on the Rock Moss Turtle has an excellent detoxifying effect, especially the moss of the Rock Moss Turtle that emits an earth-yellow glow, which has an even better detoxifying effect.]

[14. The Phantom Queen Bee loves to devour the brain marrow of the Earth Dragon Scorpion. It appears ghostly and elusive, and only the Life Source Liquid or Celestial Dew can make the Phantom Queen Bee reveal itself, making it one of the materials for refining bewitching charms.]

[15. Influenced by the storm, New Covenant University will turn into a marshland, and the Siren Sea Demon will take the opportunity to leave here, growing a pair of pure white wings in the rain.]

The latest intelligence has revealed the fate of the Magma Dragon Turtle. Although Ye Bai does not know why the Flame Dragon Egg has vanished, this is considered a great fortune for the Flame Country.

As long as the Magma Dragon Turtle is finished, the South Heaven Gate Fortress can be stable for a while.

The Flame Country will seize this opportunity to strengthen the defenses of the South Heaven Gate Fortress.

Once this risk is eliminated, the Twelve Pillars of the Country can be freed up, ready to provide aid if danger arises elsewhere.

As for the second and third pieces of intelligence, they indicate that Blast Stone and Lily Rose have new evolutionary paths, which is a bonus.

Ye Bai is very interested in these two Pet Beasts.

Only a child would make choices; Ye Bai plans to ask the committee if it's possible to research both simultaneously.

This would be like having double safety.

However, the following intelligence suggests that staying in New Covenant City will be very dangerous.

The second round of assessment lasts for half a month, and the third round will surely be similar to the second.

A month later, the Storm Giant Dragon will attack the coastal cities of the Beautiful Country, and New Covenant City happens to be one of those coastal cities.

This will bring great risks.

Even though the Eight Kings of the Beautiful Country will take action, the Storm Giant Dragon is such a magnificent being that it's hailed as one of Blue Star's Four Cardinal Virtues, representing the rampant wind on Blue Star.

In the storm, no one is a match for the Storm Giant Dragon, and even a strong country like the Beautiful Country is left helpless in its presence.

The Eight Kings can only reduce losses.

Ye Bai doesn't even need to think deeply to know that the Storm Giant Dragon causes natural disasters to give the Scary Shell an enormous fright, thereby creating an exquisite delicacy.

To the Storm Giant Dragon, humans are merely ants, hardly worth paying attention to.

As long as they do not seek death or actively attack the Storm Giant Dragon, it won't concern itself with what an ant is doing.

However, the fact that the Storm Giant Dragon does not take action does not mean other Exotic Beasts won't.

Creatures like the Emperor Lobster, Blade Crab, and Highly Poisonous Blowfish will seize the chance to stir up trouble.

"Whew, this makes New Covenant City seem like a dragon's den and tiger's lair a month from now. Can I take this opportunity to visit that mysterious laboratory?"

Ye Bai rubbed his chin, thinking to himself.

He wanted to take advantage of the chaos to get a glimpse of New Covenant University's mysterious laboratory.

If he could get his hands on the Steel Giant Dragon, nothing could be better.

At this moment, the host spoke.

"Haha, hello everyone, there's a piece of news, which can be considered an additional rule."

"In the second round of assessment, choosing two Pet Beasts for cultivation is allowed."

"The Pet Beasts will be assigned randomly, and there won't be any opportunity for selection."

In the contestant pool among the committee, there certainly will be capable people able to select talents.

If all the best Pet Beasts are picked, what about the others? That would make the contest appear unfair.

No one will ask if the committee assigning Pet Beasts might have more black acts involved.

The answer is no, as the assignment of Pet Beasts will be completely managed by the intelligent system.

It will allocate, monitor, and record each allocation process until the Pet Beasts reach the contestants.

Not even Angelina can interfere once in the second round, or the intelligent system will eliminate interference.

After hearing the host, Ye Bai immediately chose Lily Rose and Blast Stone.

Angelina laughed as she watched Ye Bai choose Lily Rose and Blast Stone.

"Ye Bai, oh Ye Bai, what should I say about you?"

"Should I say you're arrogant, or should I say you have wisdom in hand?"

"To not choose the Hundred-Change Silkworm you excel in and instead pick Pet Beasts you're unfamiliar with."

Angelina had thoroughly investigated all of Ye Bai's information.

She had full details on Ye Bai's skills.

A genius researcher who discovered numerous evolutionary paths for the Hundred-Change Silkworm.

If he chose to cultivate the Hundred-Change Silkworm, there would be none to compete with him.

It's a pity Ye Bai chose two Pet Beasts that the Beautiful Country thoroughly researched.

Lily Rose and Blast Stone have only a few evolutionary paths, all revealed by the Beautiful Country.

No matter how outstandingly Ye Bai cultivates Lily Rose or Blast Stone, it would just be picking up others' wisdom, with low scores.

"Ye Bai, you're courting your own doom, it's a shame I was worried you'd be the dark horse of this contest."

"This way, I can focus my attention on watching the other potential dark horses."

In Angelina's mind, Ye Bai was already out of the race.

Soon, Blast Stone and Lily Rose were delivered to the No. 81 laboratory where Ye Bai was.

Blast Stone is considered an initial Pet Beast in the Flame Country and has indeed been researched extensively.

Its evolutionary path was long understood.

Among all the researchers present, only Ye Bai chose Blast Stone.

This is a black stone with four arms, those arms covered with muscles, highly agile, and able to substitute for legs to walk on the ground.

Its legs are very small, so Blast Stone usually moves by using its hands.

After evolution, Blast Stone will grow a pair of legs to become a standing Pet Beast.

Its body surface bore red patterns, and upon leaving the Beast Card, the laboratory's temperature increased by five degrees.

Ye Bai placed a piece of Frozen Rock next to Blast Stone.

This piece of Frozen Rock, equivalent in size to Blast Stone's body, emitted gusts of cold qi.

This made Blast Stone feel very comfortable.

Nobody knew that the Blast Stone species does not like staying in magma regions for long.

They prefer to find cold environments to live in.

Staying long in magma regions causes Blast Stone to absorb excessive fire qi.

Once it enters a frenzy state, it will explode with a bang, shattering into pieces.

This is why Blast Stone is so prone to combusting and exploding.

Researchers don't recognize that Blast Stone is somewhat like a husky, being an excellent sled dog in the cold and a fool in the warmth.

If the temperature is slightly higher, its mind gets muddled.

Blast Stone absorbed the cold qi from the Frozen Rock, slowly reducing the laboratory temperature.

Even the faint red glow on Blast Stone's surface gradually dimmed.

After absorbing the cold qi from the Frozen Rock, Blast Stone regained a lot of its consciousness.

It showed Ye Bai a friendly expression.

"Blast Stone, next, I will conduct entirely new research."

Seeing Blast Stone accept the Frozen Rock, Ye Bai hurried to share his plan with it.

Looking at Blast Stone's large playful eyes, Ye Bai understood that Blast Stone was capable of thinking.

It nodded solemnly, indicating its agreement with Ye Bai's scheme.

Due to absorbing too much fire qi, Blast Stone's body is on the verge of explosion. Without intervention, the inevitable end would be to explode.

Therefore, despite the numerous Blast Stones, few can evolve to the next evolutionary form.

The majority of Blast Stones blow themselves to ashes during their strength improvements.

This is why most are reluctant to contract Blast Stones.

The Flame Country discovered a method to suppress Blast Stone's explosions.
