Chapter 427: Chapter 396: One After Another

After the blond man, Jin Yingjun, caused such a scene, the tense atmosphere finally broke.

The few of them chatted for a bit, then went their separate ways and left.

Sister Jin Wu and Sister Bai Long, the white-haired woman, vanished in the blink of an eye.

Jin Yingjun, who had been knocked out of Mo Yuan City, transformed into a streak of light and followed them again, his persistence unwavering.

"Er, that was a bit of a scene. I’ll go take care of it!" Teacher Lu, the scruffy-bearded stall owner, also followed.

"I have many things to handle on my end, so I’ll be leaving first. Hongbing Monarch, please escort Student Li Qian and the others out of the Dimension Plane as soon as possible."

Wen Zebin was also preparing to leave. Before he left, he gave an instruction, "This year’s freshman challenge had some unexpected incidents. But Student Li Qian, rest assured, we will re-evaluate your performance and give you an additional reward!"

"Uh, is anyone going to explain..." At that moment, someone, it was unclear who, shouted out at an inappropriate time.

Li Qian followed the voice with his eyes and saw it was an old acquaintance—Fatty An!

Somehow, the guy had also appeared on the Teleportation Plaza.

The situation just now had been so dangerous. He hadn’t expected this guy to be so audacious. He actually dared to pop out. Wasn’t he afraid of being blown to bits by a single sneeze from the Demon Dragon Remnant Soul?

"No explanation is needed, and there’s no need for one!" Seeing this, Li Qian quickly walked over and clapped a hand over Fatty An’s big mouth.

This matter was quite complex, filled with all sorts of conspiracies and schemes. If one’s strength was insufficient, knowing the truth would be a curse, not a blessing.

Fatty An was usually a pretty sharp guy. Why was he being so foolish now?

After shooting him a meaningful glance, Li Qian urged the Hongbing Monarch to leave the Teleportation Plaza.

That same evening, they returned to the real world and checked into the campus hotel arranged by Kansai Beast Taming University.

Lying in bed, Li Qian’s thoughts raced as he mulled over many things. In reality, if he just connected a few of the clues, the truth would surface.

Shaking his head, Li Qian tried to clear his mind and stop himself from overthinking. Just as he’d thought before, if his strength was insufficient, knowing more was useless.

Besides, Li Qian knew very well that this matter wasn’t over. Sister Jin Wu’s appearance was an accident, and he didn’t believe certain people would remain indifferent.

That was Li Qian’s guess, and as it turned out, his guess was not wrong.

The next morning, just after he’d finished breakfast and returned to his room, Li Qian was about to pack his things when a KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK sounded at the door.

Opening the door, two figures came into view: the group’s supervising teacher, Ge Yuming, and the Vice Dean of the Combat Academy, Congming Mountain.

"Is it convenient for us to come in and sit for a while?" Teacher Ge Yuming smiled.

Li Qian: "..."

’You’re both already at the door and you’re asking if it’s convenient? Could I possibly say no?’

"Teacher Ge, Dean Cong, please come in!" Li Qian said, gesturing for the two to enter the room.

After they were seated, Dean Cong was the first to speak. "Student Li Qian, you did very well this time!"

"You evolved a Sunbird and won the cultivation competition, then performed meritorious deeds during the subsequent riots, protecting yourself and your teammates, and even rescuing many other students..."

Dean Cong started with a round of praise, which was clearly a preamble. Li Qian just listened patiently without saying much.

Soon, the conversation got to the main point. "I heard that you were the one who evolved that Legendary Level Three-legged Golden Crow?"

’I knew it was about this,’ Li Qian thought. He knew he would be questioned about it even if he returned to Shazhou Beast Taming University, so he might as well answer truthfully. "Yes!"

"This time, I was quite lucky. I managed to evolve the Three-legged Golden Crow by a happy accident. Of course, Lanxin Monarch also contributed a great deal."

Li Qian didn’t take all the credit for himself, instead choosing to be forthright and honest.

"If..."

Hearing this, Ge Yuming couldn’t hold back and cut in, asking, "I mean, if... if all the conditions were met, could you evolve a Three-legged Golden Crow again?"

"I can give it a try, but I can’t make any guarantees," Li Qian said.

In truth, after going through this evolution, Li Qian had already basically figured out the method for evolving a Sunbird into a Three-legged Golden Crow.

As long as the conditions were met, he was ninety percent confident he could evolve a Three-legged Golden Crow.

However, this was the Three-legged Golden Crow, a Legendary Pet Beast, practically at the pinnacle of all existing Pet Beasts. If Li Qian sounded too certain, it would not only be unreasonable, but others wouldn’t believe him either.

So, Li Qian deliberately gave a more conservative response.

After hearing Li Qian’s words, both Teacher Ge and Dean Cong showed looks of excitement.

Dean Cong even cried out directly, "Excellent!"

Seeing him so excited, Li Qian couldn’t help but pour cold water on his enthusiasm. "Dean Cong, don’t celebrate too early."

"Although I can give it a try, the conditions for evolving a Sunbird into a Three-legged Golden Crow are truly too demanding."

"Gathering them all will be no easy task. And if the evolution attempt ends in failure, the losses will be horrifying."

Li Qian gave them a warning first, not daring to over-promise.

"Then how confident are you?" Dean Cong asked, his gaze burning.

"I can’t be sure right now. I can only give you an answer after trying it once," Li Qian said.

Dean Cong immediately replied, "Right, right, right! A Legendary Pet Beast isn’t something that can be evolved so easily. Of course you’d have to try it first to know!"

The three of them chatted for a while longer, and soon, Dean Cong and Teacher Ge left Li Qian’s room with satisfied smiles.

A while after they left, a group of deans and teachers from the Cultivation Colleges of various Beast Taming Universities, led by Long Jue and others, arrived all at once, as if they had planned it.

After a few pleasantries, they cut to the chase.

As Li Qian had expected, they were also here for the Three-legged Golden Crow.

Of course, there were also subtle hints of recruitment, but since Li Qian had no intention of transferring schools, he just played dumb.

Just as he had with Ge Yuming and Dean Congming Mountain, Li Qian explained the situation in a very conservative manner.

Even so, this was enough to make these people nearly jump with excitement.

In the end, Li Qian promised that as long as they gathered the necessary conditions, he could help try to perform the evolution.

Of course, he definitely wouldn’t make any promises about whether it would succeed.

As for the conditions, he only gave two for now. First, the remnant soul of a Legendary Pet Beast. Second, a Sunbird that has mastered ’Nirvana Rebirth,’ the advanced version of the Skill ’Nirvana.’

Both of these conditions were extremely difficult to meet.

Yet after hearing this, the assembled cultivation masters were exceptionally excited, their faces all showing eager expressions.
