Chapter 239 — Shi Jin, Evolution Planner

"As expected of the fierce man who researched such results—I couldn't understand a thing, but it was amazing. It felt as easy as drinking water," Director Yao said.

Listening to Dean Bai and Director Yao discuss, An Chang swallowed and looked at them, asking:

"Dean Bai, Director Yao…"

"I know—you want to ask who he really is, right," Director Yao said.

An Chang nodded emphatically.

Apart from a name and a phone number, he still had no idea who Shi Ying was—so how was he supposed to know which direction to take in repaying Shi Cen in the future?

Though he didn't know what had happened, now that he had the sea dragon, he was confident he could become a master-level beast tamer and repay these kindnesses.

"His name is Shi Jin. He's a top student at the Ancient Capital University, this year's top scorer in the Ancient Capital professional examination, and a genius archaeologist," Dean Bai said with a sigh. A genius indeed.

Hearing that Shi Jin was the top scorer of the Ancient Capital professional examination, An Chang was at once filled with admiration—the top scorer of a first-tier city's professional exam… the weight of that was absolutely solid.

But somehow, compared with the king-tier dragon-type creature Shi Jin had casually planned out just now, these titles felt like… nothing much.

"Beyond that, through archaeology he even discovered the evolution method for the king-tier Jiuli War Beast of the iron-eating beast."

"And at the Imperial Capital Breeding Conference, he researched the Green Cotton Worm – Green Cocoon evolution system, pioneering an unprecedented, extremely cost-effective Green Cotton Worm evolution chain. His research results crushed the breeding teams of the five great financial groups and the eight great academies, effortlessly leading the Ancient Capital University to the championship of the Breeding Conference. During this period, even the legendary beast tamer Hua Xiajin and the renowned Magic Capital breeding doctor Master Zuo Jiangyun voluntarily became his assistants."

"The Green Cocoon evolution chain contains infinite evolutionary possibilities from extraordinary to overlord tier. It was hailed by the Breeding Association as the best breeding achievement of the past decade, one capable of changing the landscape of the Donghuang beast-taming field. With that evolution chain, he himself cultivated the overlord-tier pet beast, the Butterfly of Fantasy—that is, the pet beast that was on his shoulder just now… This also earned him the title of 'future legendary beast tamer.'"

"In short, he is an utterly remarkable person…"

As Dean Bai repeated Shi Tan's honors, even he was shaken—was this even human?

Beside him, hearing these outrageous experiences and this cheat-like life, An Chang was completely dumbstruck.

"Haha, perhaps all of this really is effortless for him. You needn't take it too much to heart—even a master beast tamer might count for nothing compared to his current achievements," Dean Bai said. Wanting to repay Shi Jin was not something just anyone could do; it was far too difficult.

"This…" An Chang was stunned for a moment.

"If a master beast tamer won't do, then a legendary beast tamer." He spoke with determination.

Besides, in the warehouse at his home there was still a family heirloom that his father had told him absolutely must not be lost, sold, or damaged. Given the current situation, he felt it would be fine to dig it out later and give it to Shi Cen—the family was nearly gone, so what use was a family heirloom? As an archaeologist, Shi Jin would probably like such a thing. In any case, it was useless in their hands, so better to give it to someone who understood it.

"Legendary…" Dean Bai smiled and said, "Ambition is good. By the way, Little Chang, since you no longer need to worry about your mother's illness, you've contracted a king-tier dragon-type pet beast, and you're determined to become stronger, how about I recommend a place to you?"

"The Bai Family Martial Hall—you've probably heard of it. It only takes in beast tamers with fusion talent. Before you become a professional beast tamer, you can study there for free. How about it? Otherwise, with your current strength alone, it won't be easy to look after the sea dragon."

The Wuling Bai family monopolized martial halls, medical care, banking, food, and many other industries in Wuling City. What Shi Jin had failed to notice earlier was that Dean Bai was also something of a relative of Bai Xi.

At this moment, seeing a good seedling, Dean Bai suddenly began recruiting talent for his own family. A legend might be impossible, but for this An Chang to become a master really should not be difficult.

…

"You're fast."

Outside Wuling's largest commercial street.

Having just hung up the phone with Shi Ying, Bai Xi found that Shi Jin had in the blink of an eye appeared before her and Lu Heng.

"Teleportation—high-tier is an understatement," Shi Li said.

Lu Heng and Bai Xi were speechless. They glanced at the haggard Chongchong and observed a moment of silence.

Stuck with a beast tamer like you—is Chongchong lucky, or unlucky?

"How was the stroll?" the beast-eared senior sister asked with a smile. "Did you find any treasures? You didn't get scammed, did you??? Want Lu Yan to appraise them for you?"

Shi Jin rubbed his nose and said, "Not bad. Quite the haul, actually. Not only did I help a lost young man fulfill his dream, I also casually picked up a legendary prop from the Totem Era for five million—flip it and it'd probably sell for tens of billions."

Lu Heng and Bai Xi: ???
