After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Qiu Qiuyu hurried over, "Dad, people from the tax bureau and the fire department came again yesterday, they have checked three times this month."

"Don't bother, let them check as usual," Qiu Shangqing was very calm about it.

"Dad, but now the authorities are forcing us to take sides! If we don't, things will only escalate," Qiu Qiuyu said anxiously.

"You've lost your composure, even if we are to choose sides, now is not the time,"

Qiu Shangqing said indifferently.

Perhaps influenced by Qiu Shangqing's calm demeanor, Qiu Qiuyu slowly calmed down as well.

After Qiu Qiuyu left, Qiu Shangqing, now alone in the room, looked to the north.

The local officials were merely acting on orders; the real source of the storm was in the heart of Dragon City.

The storm was so big that even Qiu Shangqing was having trouble seeing it clearly.

Your Majesty... what are you planning to do.

...

Chen Xing returned to Longbei City, passed through the portal back to the Exotic Region, and returned to Jiuzhou University.

The Qinghai competition seemed to have no impact on Chen Xing's state of life at Jiuzhou University.

Occasionally, on the way to his part-time job, there were some unusual glances by the roadside.

But they were all kept within a certain limit.

Nobody approached Chen Xing for autographs or photos either.

Those who could come here were all favored by heaven.

However, during his part-time job, Chen Xing did find a pleasant surprise.

While searching for compatible materials in the warehouse, he discovered a piece related to the golden evolutionary path of the Calamity Sea Snail—a Chaotic Demon Root.

A rare material of the Dark Attribute with an extremely high degree of rarity.

Chen Xing judged the rarity of this treasure in the warehouse mainly by its exchange price at the school!

The more expensive it is, the rarer the material.

The Chaotic Demon Root looked like a tangled mess.

Like many black tree roots entwined together, it resembled a lump of viscid substance.

It was always in a state of change.

And this thing was quite tricky; if Chen Xing stared at it closely for a while, his head would start to ache.

Exchanging for a Chaotic Demon Root in the school's logistics app required eighty thousand Academic Credits.

The price was simply outrageous.

The app's exchange list had a note (2), indicating there were only two pieces of this material left in the school's warehouse.

And to exchange for it, seventy thousand Academic Credits were still needed.

Now Chen Xing had one more goal—to save up eighty thousand Academic Credits and exchange for this material.

The fastest ways to obtain Academic Credits were twofold.

One was to open a new Resource Point, for which the school would give a certain amount of Academic Credits as a reward.

The other was to complete school projects, with varying rewards of Academic Credits depending on the project level.

For Chen Xing, the simplest method was to complete projects.

All it took was to research a new evolutionary path for the Twin-fiend Dogs.

Based on the value of the new evolution path, a corresponding reward in Academic Credits would be given.

Chen Xing was already planning to research a valuable evolutionary path for these young Twin-fiend Dogs, now he was even more eager to achieve this goal.

The next day,

Chen Xing walked into the warehouse, carrying a half-grown Twin-fiend Dog.

Deep within the warehouse,

the Mountain Spirit, sensing the unfamiliar presence enter, silently turned its head,

then sensed the familiar presence beside the unfamiliar one.

It's him again!

The Mountain Spirit was silent for a moment before turning its head back again.

Boundaries are, after all, broken through step by step,

After experiencing the changes of these days, the spirit of the mountain and stone no longer paid attention to such trivial matters.

As long as the materials in the warehouse were not damaged, that was all that mattered.

Inside the warehouse, a little Twin-fiend Dog was panting, its bright and soulful eyes staring intently at Chen Xing without blinking.

This Twin-fiend Dog was the most obedient one Chen Xing had picked from the pack, and it was also the one he had chosen as the leader.

Originally, Chen Xing had planned to elect it as the Dog King, but for some reason, the Dog King recognized by the pack was Taotie...

So the Twin-fiend Dog settled for second best and just became the head dog.

During the past few days, although Chen Xing did not find any purple Quality evolutionary paths while searching for an evolutionary route for the Twin-fiend Dogs, he did discover quite a few blue and green Quality routes.

During this process, Chen Xing could not help but ponder.

Blue Quality should belong to the category of rare evolution.

But he didn't know if Green Quality counted as well?

However, he figured even if it wasn't rare evolution, a Green Quality evolutionary path should still be excellent among ordinary ones.

Taotie was only on a Blue Quality evolutionary path now. If Chen Xing directly provided the Twin-fiend Dog with a Blue Quality evolutionary path as well...

That would be quite the spectacle.

But it was not something he could handle at the current stage.

So after some thought, Chen Xing ultimately decided to pick a Green Quality evolutionary path.

The evolved species name: Wood Spirit Hidden Canine.

A total of five materials were needed, valued at one thousand six hundred and twenty Academic Credits.

Not all the precious materials in the warehouse were that expensive; most were relatively cheap.

The majority of the prices ranged between fifty to five hundred Academic Credits.

However, out of caution, Chen Xing spent an extra thousand Academic Credits to purchase some materials for a deception.

These materials were not bought in vain; they could also be sold in the outside world.

There's always a market for precious materials.

While Chen Xing was preparing, he had just returned to his residence when there was a knock on the door from the courtyard outside.

The familiar delivery guy stood outside the garden fence holding a big box and knocked on the wooden door.

"Handsome, your delivery has arrived."

Chen Xing stepped forward to sign for it, "Thanks, sorry for the trouble."

"Please leave a good review." After verifying Chen Xing's identity, the delivery guy rode off on a small van parked by the roadside.

Holding the somewhat heavy box, Chen Xing returned to the living room and placed the box on the table.

The shipping address was from the Polaris Federation; Chen Xing roughly guessed what it was.

Upon opening the package, inside was a spherical glass vase the size of a basketball.

The inside of the vase looked like a lit bulb.

But it wasn't actually a bulb, rather a bundle of flowing light.

This light seemed to be imprisoned in the vase, wriggling like a snake.

After checking the item, Chen Xing put it away carefully.

The materials needed for the Sìxiàng evolution were all assembled, except for the need to hold the ritual in the Dark Realm.

These materials, which cost a great deal of money and effort to obtain, could not be wasted.

Dong Jun, who was slouching in the living room watching TV, turned his head when he sensed the morning light being taken out but soon turned back, seemingly finding the TV more captivating.

Meanwhile, once Chen Xing had carefully stored everything, he couldn't help but think about who could accompany him to the Shadow Giant City.

Going there alone would be too risky.

As for trustworthy individuals who could accompany him to the Shadow Giant City, there weren't many.

After much thought, Chen Xing came up with two names.

Senior Qiu and his mentor.

But this was his own private matter, and he wasn't sure if they were willing; if they didn't want to travel that far, Chen Xing couldn't force them.

Even if they were willing, he also had to consider whether they had the time.

Thinking this, after a moment of deliberation, Chen Xing temporarily set aside his other tasks and personally went to visit his mentor in the residence diagonally across.
