Chapter 71 Aaron’s Choice, Clay Doll

Chu Xiran's reminder allowed Li Qian to understand a lot of things in advance. These things were still very important to him. This time, she really helped him, so Li Qian was quite grateful to her.

Finally, before leaving, she added, "To put it bluntly, choosing the Beast Control University means choosing the dimensional rift behind the suppression and management of the Beast Control University, so you need to treat it seriously and carefully. Although I know some things in this regard, after all, there is no The three admissions teachers know a lot. You can take the opportunity to ask this question. Of course, I don’t know whether they will tell the truth in this regard. I heard that the matter about the dimensional rift is kept secret from high school students... In short, You can try asking..."

“I understand, thank you, Teacher Chu Xiran!” Li Qian nodded and expressed his sincere thanks.

After giving the last reminder, Chu Xiran left the training base. She said everything she needed to say and reminded her of everything that needed to be reminded. There was no point in staying.

Looking at the direction in which Teacher Chu Xiran was leaving, Li Qian fell into deep thought.

  Dimensional rift is such an important matter, why did the three admissions teachers tacitly choose not to mention it?

 Is there something hidden, or do I not meet the conditions to find out, or... is it kept a secret from high school students?

 Perhaps there are all of them. At worst, I can ask about it the next time I communicate.

 There is still some time before graduation from high school, so there is no need to rush.

 The next day, as usual, Mr. An Tianyou brought his Sun-Eating Tiger to the breeding base.

This tiger seems to be in love with this training method of using intimidation skills to oppress the koi.

 At the end of each training session, he would show an unfinished expression.

 Perhaps eating food is indeed a very pleasant thing for it.

And the strange thing is that Mr. An also enjoys it as much as the Sun-Eating Tiger and never gets tired of it.

Seeing this scene, Li Qian couldn't help but wonder whether Mr. An was a combat-type beast master hidden by his business talent.

 Unlike usual, Mr. An did not leave immediately after the training. He seemed to have something to discuss with Li Qian.

Li Qian didn't think much about it. At the old man's signal, he got into his car and arrived at the northern suburbs of Lingshui City.

 The car was speeding along, and he was very patient. He didn't ask anything along the way.

 It wasn't until the car stopped in front of a rather desolate and overgrown abandoned building that Li Qian cast an inquiring look at Mr. An.

Pointing to a large area of ​​building ruins as far as the eye could see, Mr. An explained, "The original name here was 'Xinxing Pet Paradise'."

“It used to be one of the must-visit attractions in Lingshui City during the peak period. Unfortunately, the owner of the attraction got involved in gambling and squandered a lot of money, which led to a loss of funds and a crisis in the operation of the attraction.”

“I had the idea of ​​selling it before, but the property rights behind the land were a bit complicated. Considering the possible risks, I gave up the idea.”

“Maybe other buyers also had this concern, so in the end the land ended up being tasteless and wasted, and it ended up with no one taking it over.”

After listening to Mr. An's introduction, Li Qian followed the topic with a smile and asked: "Then why are we here this time..."

"Look there..." Mr. An did not immediately explain the purpose of bringing Li Qian here, but pointed to the tall landslide-like building in the distance.

Seeing Li Qian's thoughtful expression, Mr. An continued: "It turned out to be a water slide. It was in the northeast corner of the entire amusement park. The drop from the highest point to the lowest point was eighty meters."

 When Mr. An said this, Li Qian completely understood what he meant.

The next moment, just as he had guessed, Mr. An directly revealed the real purpose of bringing Li Qian here, "I plan to take over the water slide in the northeast corner and claim that it will continue to operate after repairs. In fact, I plan to repair it." After modification, we only need to add about 20 meters more, and the height difference will reach 100 meters. At that time, it can be turned into an artificial waterfall to meet the evolutionary needs of the blue-scaled dragon. "

“Another point, which is very important, is that the property rights of the water slide are very clear, so there will be no problem whether you rent or buy it.”

Li Qian nodded with satisfaction after hearing this. This is indeed a good idea.

Although the Baizhang Waterfall in the Yunwu Mountain Scenic Area is an ideal place for evolution, it does not belong to you after all. It is not convenient to have to look at other people's faces every time you evolve.

 Furthermore, Li Qian always felt that there might be some secrets hidden in Yunwu Mountain, and it would not be a good thing to have too much exposure to them.

 It is best to have a place for evolution that is completely under your control.

 So he naturally supported Mr. An’s decision with both hands.

“Grandpa An is very determined. If we can win that water slide, it will indeed be a very suitable place for us to evolve.” Li Qian nodded.

Mr. An waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. Based on our relationship, helping you is helping An."

 …

 Working with Mr. An, Li Qian returned to the training base after finalizing the plan to transform the water slide.

Coming to the central pond, Li Qian frowned as he watched Aaron swimming in the water and jumping out of the water from time to time. Then he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number to go out.

 Along's situation was a bit beyond Li Qian's expectation. Through Qizai's translation, he roughly understood the reason why the other party fell into this state.

　　It was after seeing Xiaoliu evolving that it also wanted to evolve into a Frostfire Salamander, and it became restless.

 This puts Li Qian in a dilemma. It is not difficult for him to evolve into a frost fire salamander.

But Aaron was originally aiming to evolve into a blue-scaled dragon. Now that the training was at the end, he changed the route rashly, and all the previous training was in vain.

Of course these are not the main reasons. The main reason is... Aaron is not his pet.

 He is Liu Changfeng's prepared pet, and it is up to him to decide whether he can change his evolutionary path.

Thinking about this, he did not hesitate and dialed a number directly. After the call was connected, Li Qian did not waste time and directly told Liu Changfeng of Aaron's wishes.

"Although this route can evolve into a Frostfire Salamander, the risk is also very high. There is a half chance of failure. If it fails, Aaron will probably lose hope of evolution forever."

Li Qian did not hide anything and truthfully informed Liu Changfeng of the risks.

 On the other end of the phone, Liu Changfeng fell into a long-term shock.

Just now, Li Qian has developed another evolutionary route for koi. The evolved body is a frost fire salamander with higher potential than the blue-scaled dragon.

After being stunned for a moment, Liu Changfeng finally came to his senses and then began to think in silence.

According to Li Qian, if he continues training in the current way, Aaron will be able to evolve into a blue-scaled dragon in at most half a month.

 But if you change the evolutionary route at this time, you will have to face half the probability of failure, although the potential will be higher after the evolution is successful.

After thinking for a while, he replied: "I can't make a decision yet. I will come to Lingshui City again tomorrow and let's talk about it after I meet Aaron."

Li Qian nodded and responded, "That's good!"

no sooner said than done.

the next day.

 Approximately noon.

 Liu Changfeng came to Jiaoyang Training Base.

Zhou Chubin and the other three, who were not clear about the situation, thought that another competitor had arrived and were nervous for a while.

 After learning Liu Changfeng’s identity, he felt a lot more at ease.

 Inside the base. Li Qian received Liu Changfeng.

 He asked: "What do you think about Aaron's evolution?"

"I gonna go see."

 Liu Changfeng still did not give a reply. He quickly left and headed to the central pond.

 Li Qian did not follow.

 What he wants to get is a result.

 As for the discussion process, he didn't want to know, nor was he interested.

“Aaron wants to evolve into a frost fire salamander, so he is determined.” About ten minutes later, Liu Changfeng returned to Building 1 and gave his reply, “I respect his choice.”

Li Qian nodded, "Okay, I can arrange the evolution tomorrow."

 Liu Changfeng's choice did not exceed Li Qian's expectations.

His image in Li Qian's eyes has always been synonymous with determination and forging ahead. If there is an opportunity to go further, he will most likely not give up.

Liu Changfeng nodded after hearing Li Qian's words, "Then I won't leave today."

After saying that, he suddenly thought of something, and then added, "By the way, I will take Aaron away today, is that okay?"

Li Qian smiled and handed Aaron's beast control ball directly, "No problem, this is for you."

"No need." Liu Changfeng waved his hand and did not take the beast control ball from Li Qian.

 This made him a little confused.

"I have signed a soul contract with Aaron." Liu Changfeng explained in a calm tone, as if he was telling a trivial matter that had nothing to do with him.

Li Qian was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

Then he cast an incredulous look at Liu Changfeng.

 “You...you would actually...ah!” Li Qian didn’t know what to say, so he could only sigh helplessly.

To be honest, he really didn't expect that Liu Changfeng would contract with Aaron at this time.

You know, when he learned that there was only half the success rate of evolution, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​contracting Xiaoliu in advance.

 Contract in advance. After the evolution is successful, you can certainly enjoy the evolutionary feedback. However, if it fails and the koi can no longer evolve, it will be a direct waste of a contract position.

Of course, if you are willing to spend a lot of money and buy some soul-nourishing medicine, the backlash of canceling the contract can be minimized. In this case, you can reuse the contract slot.

 It’s just that this kind of price cannot be afforded by ordinary beast masters.

Medicine that nourishes the soul has always been at a sky-high price, and there is no market for it. As soon as it appears, it will be snapped up.

 Excluding those top second-generation royals who can withstand the backlash of contact contracts without injury, basically no one can reuse an abandoned contract slot. This also determines that basically no one dares to contract a koi before evolving.

After all, once the evolution fails, it means that in the next twenty years, one of the precious contract slots will be occupied by a useless koi, and it is basically impossible for the koi to evolve again.

 However, Liu Changfeng did such a thing, and he seemed to be at ease, without any pressure at all.

Li Qian didn’t even know whether he had confidence in himself, Aaron, or him.

"Why do you want to contract Aaron at this time?" Although he already understood Liu Changfeng's thoughts, Li Qian couldn't help but shook his head slightly, "What if evolution fails!"

“I have confidence in Aaron, he will definitely evolve successfully.”

 Liu Changfeng said nonchalantly: "And my talent for beast control is soul bonding."

"At the critical moment, Aaron can be given strength. I want to work with him to complete this important step."

“Okay.” Seeing that Liu Changfeng had said so, Li Qian could only nod helplessly.

Furthermore, he also knows that the talent of Soul Bond can indeed help the pet beast overcome difficulties at critical moments.

 It is equivalent to one person and one pet bearing the pressure from the spiritual level.

With Liu Changfeng's willpower, it would be true to say that he could help Aaron.

“Then you should prepare well today.”

The two chatted for a few more words, and after Li Qian gave his final explanation, Liu Changfeng took Aaron and left the breeding base.

That night.

 Inside the training base.

Han Yuying and Li Chengyang conducted a "three-court trial" on Li Qian.

 Mother Han Yuying was the first to speak, "Son, how are you thinking about the Beast Control University?"

Li Qian responded casually while eating, "I'm still thinking about it, don't be in a hurry. I have a sense of discretion and will take this matter seriously."

Li Chengyang suddenly recalled the past, and then said with some emotion: "Both of us have limited talents and have never attended the Beast Control University. We can't give you any advice in this regard, but we all believe that you have the ability to make the best choice for yourself. s Choice."

Hearing this, Li Qian felt a little embarrassed, but he still expressed his sincere thanks, "Thank you, Dad, Mom."

Father Li Chengyang chuckled and said, "Don't blame us for not being able to help you. That's fine."

Li Qian also laughed, "How could that be?"

 He opened his mouth and said firmly: "You will always be my strongest support."

“Furthermore, I believe that your talents are definitely more than this. In the past, they were delayed by family conditions. Now that the economic situation has improved, you will definitely achieve something, so not only me, but you can’t give up either.”

 “We, as a family, must make progress together.”

 At this point, Li Qian took advantage of the situation and asked: "By the way, Dad, do you have any intention of getting your second pet?"

“Don’t worry, our family is not short of money now. You can boldly ask for it, and I will definitely find a way to buy it for you.”

After hearing this, Li Chengyang scratched his head in embarrassment, "I really have a good goal, but the price is a bit expensive."

Li Qian asked nonchalantly, "What kind of pet?"

Li Chengyang pursed his lips, his old face turned red, and he spat out four words, "Clay doll."

 As a father, a contracted beast, and having to be helped by his own son, this does sound a bit embarrassing.

Li Qian didn't think so much. He recalled what the teacher told him in the pet knowledge class, and then nodded with satisfaction, "The clay doll with dual attributes of curse and earth is a very good choice. , its evolved rock puppet is very powerful in both long-range attack and melee combat. In addition, it has many field-control skills that can determine the direction of a battle if used properly. "
