Chapter 91

The team leader was in a bad state.

How could a student come up with such an excellent solution in just a few hours?

The team leader had initially found Yunzhou Technology's initial proposal quite novel. The random changes in the lava and forest scenes, as well as the idea of ​​accumulating victory points to increase levels, had intrigued her. But now, she realized all of these features were present in Xia Muqing's proposal, and even more complete.

The team leader carefully looked through it for a long time, and the more he looked, the more surprised he became: "Is this really something he came up with on the spur of the moment?"

"Could it be..."

Could it be stolen from somewhere?

A thought flashed through the team leader's mind, and suspicion immediately set in. Chi Zi, observing his expression and seeing his concern, immediately spoke up, "Team Leader, the student I'm talking about is called Xia Muqing."

"She said she's been interested in our Ark system for a long time, and she was very happy when I invited her to join the project team... Maybe I'm mistaken. This proposal was submitted to me within a few hours, but it may have been conceived for several months."

Team Leader: "So that's how it is. Xia Muqing's name sounds familiar... Ah, is she the newly promoted young Divine Beast Master?"

She gasped, "She actually came up with this plan. No wonder, no wonder!"

"I heard she's got a quick mind, and her creative thinking in breeding profound beasts is unparalleled. The profound beasts she raises are unlike any others, and she's opened up many brand-new evolutionary paths. Hey, do you think these geniuses' heads are constantly filled with fantastic ideas?"

"It's not just about training mysterious beasts, it's also about designing application plans."

Chi Zi pointed cheerfully at the end of the proposal. "Look, she said there are some other related designs like the big brawl, which she didn't have time to include here. She'll tell me in detail in person when we get to Yandu. Team leader, don't let her have too many ideas."

"This is just the first plan. Team leader, there's a second one!"

The team leader looked up: "Oh, there's another one?"

She took the paper from Chi Zi's hand and muttered, "Is there a better plan than the last one? I don't believe it..."

The team leader's voice gradually weakened, and he looked at the plan more and more seriously, with surprise in his eyes.

Chi Zi didn't have time to look at the second plan. He printed out another one and started reading it happily.

The other members of the project team were curious and stood up and came over: "What's the plan? Let me see it."

"Give me one too! Let me see... Hmm, 100 mysterious beasts running in a poisonous circle, they can attack each other, and the seriously injured ones will be eliminated?"

"In the end, only one profound beast can win... Oh my god, this is so exciting!"

"Two or four profound beasts can form a team and fight together. Teams can temporarily cooperate with each other, or suddenly betray each other... Oh my god, how did they come up with this? Isn't this a chaotic place in another dimension?"

"It really is! The plan also mentioned that it recommends designing a map based on the terrain of the alien space. This way, in addition to helping the mysterious beasts train their skills, they can also familiarize themselves with the environment of the alien space. Awesome, really awesome!"

"As expected of a divine beast user!"

There was a constant stream of praise in the office.

The team leader's cheeks flushed with excitement as he repeatedly urged, "Everyone, keep these plans safe and don't share them with anyone else. I'll take one copy to show to the leader and then hire a few evaluation companies."

"And that Beast Master Xia—Teacher Chi Zi, you must bring her into our project team!"

"This project is sure to make a lot of money! She came up with the plan, so please ask her to do the follow-up improvements. I'll definitely give her a share of the profits when the time comes!"

Chi Zi: "Okay, Team Leader!"

She stroked her phone, still feeling surprised.

Originally, he was just looking for a name to give Xia Muqing some additional salary, but he didn't expect that before Xia Muqing arrived, he had already given her a big gift.

With just two plans, I was directly upgraded to a formal member of the project team and can even get dividends!

Chi Zi was enjoying himself when he suddenly thought of another question: "Hey, team leader, wait, I forgot something!"

"She just filled out her application, and the acceptance letter hasn't been sent to her yet. She's not even on the student system list!"

…

While the Yandu University project team was busy with two plans, Xia Muqing stretched on the train and rubbed her sore eyes.

"I've been writing for so long without realizing it. Is the train about to arrive?"

"Xiaofeng, Xiaojin, wake up, we're almost at the station! Xiaozi—um, you're not asleep?"

The Yin-Yang butterfly fluttered its wings and landed lightly on Xia Muqing's shoulder: "Yeah."

The Swift Dog and the Koi Fish were both asleep, and it thought that it shouldn't sleep either, as there must be a mysterious beast awake to protect its owner.

Xia Muqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Xiao Zi, it's good to be vigilant, but there's no danger on the train, so don't be too nervous."

The Swift Dog also shook itself: "Woo."

Xiao Zi rested peacefully. Although it looked like it was sleeping, its ears were still erect.

After evolution, it has become more sensitive to external noises, and even its talent for sensing danger has increased a lot. If there is real danger, it will be able to react immediately.

After the Gale Dog said this, the Yin-Yang Butterfly flapped its wings and finally relaxed a little.

Xia Muqing looked at it and felt that after breaking out of the cocoon, Xiao Zi was no longer as innocent and happy as before. It always seemed to be full of worries and rarely got close to the Gale Dog and Koi Fish.

Holding the Yin-Yang Butterfly in her hands, Xia Muqing said softly, "Xiao Zi, are you still scared about the Wrathful Soul Butterfly? It's okay, it's not your fault. Besides, didn't you try your best to infuse your life energy into that last attack?"

"You contributed a lot to Xiaofeng's successful evolution to the second stage. No one has ever blamed you for what happened before—right, Xiaofeng, Xiaojin?"

The Swift Dog blinked its watery black eyes and nodded vigorously: "Awooo awooo!"

What is the Ghost Butterfly? I have never seen it and I don’t know what it is.

It only knows that Xiao Zi is the youngest child in the family and everyone’s happy little baby. It likes Xiao Zi the most!

The little koi also blew bubbles: "Gululu."

If both Stupid Bug and Stupid Dog were unable to take the test, it wouldn't have been able to shine in the exam.

Come on, it's been a while since I felt the "encouragement" from the little silly bug. It just woke up and is still a little confused, so why not give it some "encouragement" to help it wake up?

The Yin-Yang butterfly clung to Xia Muqing's fingers, its wings trembling: "Ah, ah..."

No matter what, that's the fact. It was because of it that the two mysterious beasts were injured, and the owner was sad for a long time.

Xia Muqing said with a smile: "Okay, it's all in the past. By the way, Xiao Zi, do you still remember this?"

She rummaged through her backpack for a moment and pulled out a small white cradle.

The cradle itself was the silkworm cocoon that was exchanged at the beginning. The little caterpillar hadn't had time to finish chewing it, so half of it was still hanging on the silk thread. The edges were rough and there were small tooth marks left by the caterpillar.

"Now that you absorb this, it should be much easier than before."

Xia Muqing placed the silkworm cocoon next to the Yin-Yang butterfly and said, "Come on, Xiao Zi, eat it. It will help stabilize your realm."

The Yin-Yang butterfly looked at the small cradle steadily, flapped its wings and flew over to it, with its antennae tightly attached to the snow cocoon.

"Aaaaaaaa!"

No, it doesn't want to eat.

It has enough energy in its body now, and it doesn't need this silkworm cocoon. Moreover, this small cradle was made for it by its owner. Its happy time as a little caterpillar is left in the cradle. Even at the moment when it became a ghost butterfly, the cradle is the warmest memory in its heart.

Master, could you please not eat the cradle?

It wants to preserve the cradle, no matter what form it evolves into in the future.

After the Yin-Yang Butterfly evolved, it rarely showed such distinct emotions. Xia Muqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook her head. "If you eat the ingredients, I can make you a cradle later... You want this one? Okay, then I'll put it away for you and put it back where it came from when you get home."

After this chat, Liangyi Butterfly's condition was obviously much better, and she was no longer huddled aside timidly like before.

After a while, the train finally arrived at the station.

Xia Muqing walked out of the platform carrying her luggage and several mysterious beasts. Cheng Zizhuo was already waiting for her there. Seeing Xia Muqing leaving the station from a distance, he raised his hand high and waved vigorously: "Over here, over here!"

Xia Muqing also waved at him: "Sorry for the wait!"

Cheng Zizhuo smiled and said, "No, I just arrived too."

"Is the box heavy? Let me help you carry it?"

"And this is a gift to congratulate you on becoming a Divine Beast Master—take a look?"

Xia Muqing took a paper bag, opened it curiously and took a look, and found a baseball cap and a pair of sunglasses inside.

She was a little amused and said, "Is this the little secret to cross-dressing you mentioned?"

Cheng Zizhuo shrugged: "Simple, but practical."

The two chatted and laughed as they left the station and took the bus to the university town. After getting off the bus, Xia Muqing saw a large training ground at a glance. Even though it was late at night, it was still brightly lit.

"The training ground in Yandu is so big. Are the facilities better than those in S City?"

Xia Muqing was a little curious: "Can I go in and take a look?"

"Of course." Cheng Zizhuo said, looking down at his watch, "But it's already past eight in the evening, aren't you hungry?"

"I was planning to take you to drop off your luggage and get something to eat first."

Xia Muqing was very excited: "It's okay, we ate on the train. Can we leave the suitcase at the front desk first?"

The two walked into the training ground.

The venue covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters, with various areas carefully divided into different areas. There are many virtual terrains, and the upper limits of force in different rooms are divided according to the energy standard method.

Xia Muqing walked along the way and saw a variety of special training areas such as the magma room, hurricane room, gravity room, and lightning room. She was amazed and said, "Magma room, is there really magma?"

Cheng Zizhuo: "Artificial magma, the temperature is not as high as real volcanic magma, but it is enough for most mysterious beasts."

"The most expensive thing here is the building. These rooms are all made of special materials from another dimension. Otherwise, there's no way to insulate against such high temperatures."

Xia Muqing nodded with emotion: "The whole house is built with special materials, it really is... a waste of money."

But it’s also very interesting to think about, and it will definitely give the mysterious beast a great improvement.

"When I have some free time these few days, I'm going to try them all out."

Cheng Zizhuo smiled and said, "Take your time. There are plenty of opportunities. Speaking of which, if you want to use this, you don't have to spend star coins. You can also bring your Yanda credit card and exchange credits for time."

"If you don't use credits to pay directly, you can also get a discount with the Yan University student card... Unfortunately, it's tied to your real name, so I can't lend you my student card."

Xia Muqing continued walking forward. "No, no, I don't want to swipe your card. Teacher Chi promised to give me a lot of resources after I enroll. The Beastmaster Association also gave me a lot as a Divine Beast Master, which is more than enough... Um, what's that room in front of me?"

"Why do all the other rooms have to wait in line for reservations, but this one is empty?"
