Professor He from the West Peak soul pet research base was the same as when Wang Che first saw her.

Her hair was messy and unkempt.

The white research suit was not clean and white. Instead, there were many stains.

However, no one could tell her exact age from her fair face.

Those eyes were lazy and occasionally flashed with intelligence.

She did not seem to have rested well either. Her eyes were slightly dark. Logically speaking, a Contract Soul Master of her realm should not be in low spirits because of bad sleep.

Speaking of which, doing soul pet research was not an easy thing.

Although Wang Che did not understand much, many profound research was still very tiring.

The West Peak soul pet base had developed four evolution forms of the Bamboo Bear, each of which required a large amount of research and experiments.

For example, Professor He could be considered the top researcher in the world.

It was not easy.

“Professor He.” Wang Che nodded, “You knew I was coming?”

Looking around the soul pet base, it felt that it was similar to Skyheart City.

It was also divided into many areas.

However, it was larger, had more researchers, and had more soul pets.

“Two months ago, Principal Lin of the Forest Academy told me that you took Bear Treasure away. I knew you would definitely come here.” He Huan smiled, “Where’s the child? Let me see.”

Wang Che released his soul ring and released Bear Treasure.

“Roar!”

As soon as it came out, Bear Treasure thought that it had to train again and immediately roared in high spirits.

Then, it saw He Huan.

Bear Treasure immediately ran over excitedly and stopped beside He Huan. It waved its bear paw and showed a wrist strength posture, indicating that it had become stronger.

They looked very intimate.

“Yes, yes, I see it, I see it. Bear Treasure has become much stronger.”

He Huan extended her pale palm and touched Bear Treasure’s head.

Bear Treasure: ʕ•ᴖ3•ᴖʔ

Wang Che was surprised that Bear Treasure and Professor He were so close.

He walked over.

Bear Treasure patted Wang Che’s calf with its bear paw and cried out, saying that this was its Contract Soul Master.

“I personally hatched this little guy in the cultivation room,” He Huan said with a smile.

Wang Che was slightly surprised, “Then why did you…”

“Why didn’t we sign a life contract, right?” He Huan seemed to know what Wang Che wanted to ask. “Come with me.”

He Huan brought Wang Che to the back of the research base.

After walking through a forest path, they arrived at a bamboo forest.

Many Bamboo Bears could be seen living here, but they were all very young.

Many researchers were observing and teaching.

The Bamboo Bears lived very regularly.

Some were crawling on the bamboo, some were digging holes, some were sleeping on the rocks, and some were waving their fists in the air.

It seemed that every Bamboo Bear had a different personality.

Bear Treasure looked at the bamboo forest with sparkling eyes. It was probably more familiar and very excited.

“There was a nest that was born with Bear Treasure.”

He Huan said, “There were a total of eight. Bear Treasure was the last to hatch. When it first hatched, it was weaker than the other Bamboo Bears. We detected that its innate life force was very weak. It was not suitable to sign a life contract.”

He Huan brought Wang Che to the bamboo forest and the bamboo house on the west.

There were many researchers and Contract Soul Masters in the bamboo house. They seemed to be carrying out tests with their Bamboo Bears.

There were even a few who helped the Bamboo Bear evolve with the help of researchers.

Wang Che saw the four evolution forms of the Bamboo Bear here.

The Lightning Bamboo Bear’s eyes were purple. Although its fur was still black and white, there were a few light purple patterns on its body.

At the same time, the hair on its paw formed a ring that contained vigorous lightning energy.

There was also a spot on the foot.

Occasionally, electric arcs would flash on its body.

It looked very imposing.

The Mountain Rock Bamboo Bear’s limbs and round abdomen were covered in a layer of rock armor. Standing there, it felt like a huge mountain, giving off a very thick feeling.

The Qi Grasping Bamboo Bear was a fighting-type. In comparison, its size gave off a very strong feeling.

There were well-defined muscles on its paws and feet.

There were even six visible abs on its chest and two steel-like chest muscles.

Without its round stomach, it stood there calmly. When it opened its eyes, they flashed brightly, and its scarlet gaze was very sharp.

There was a red bandana tied around its forehead.

The Mountain Bamboo Bear was huge. Wang Che had encountered it before.

From the form, the four Bamboo Bears each had their own merits and were all very handsome.

The evolved Bamboo Bears were all King-ranked soul pets.

There was only one stage of evolution.

After arriving, He Huan brought Wang Che and Bear Treasure to a separate laboratory.

Then, with a light wave of his hand, the surrounding walls lit up, projecting light screens.

On the light screen was the scene of Bear Treasure’s birth.

“When it was born, its life force was weak,” He Huan said. “If it finds a Contract Soul Master and signs a life contract, it will be very dangerous for it.”

According to the rules of the life contract, when signing it, the soul pet’s life force would be given to the Contract Soul Master to increase their lifespan and martial soul aptitude.

“Later on, under the care and nurturing of our researchers, it slowly grew.”

The scene was of Bear Treasure’s growth.

From a small thing of twenty to thirty centimeters at the beginning, it slowly became a one-meter-tall Bamboo Bear.

It looked similar to other Bamboo Bears.

“Do you know why the Bamboo Bear has the ability to evolve into many forms?” He Huan asked, “Or are they different attributes?”

“Other soul pets can’t do it, but only they can.”

Wang Che pondered and said, “The Bamboo Bear’s digestive ability is very strong. It has a certain absorption of various life forces. It can accumulate them in its body by eating food that contains other energy attributes. Then, through a certain amount of rare materials, it can activate the energy in its body. If it has the support of martial soul power, it can evolve?”

“It’s a pity if you don’t do research.” He Huan smiled and said, “That’s right, the Bamboo Bear looks cute. In reality, their strength, physique, defense, speed, and all aspects of potential are very outstanding. Among rare soul pets, there’s no other soul pet with such an average species potential.”

“Most importantly, they have very strong digestion abilities. This does not refer to the digestion of the ingredients, but the absorption of energy.”

“Their bodies have a stronger circulating digestive system than other soul pets.”

“This is also why they survived in such a harsh environment in the Fallen Ancient Era.”

“Therefore, theoretically speaking, the Bamboo Bear has a corresponding evolution form for all the known attributes in the world.”

Wang Che thought for a moment and glanced at Bear Treasure.

“Then it…”

“Unfortunately, although it slowly grew, after a year of research, we discovered that its body can’t absorb other energies.” He Huan sighed, “It can only be a conventional soul pet. Its body can only absorb soul power. It can’t absorb other life forces.”

“Therefore, it can’t evolve into other forms.”

Bear Treasure ran over at this moment, probably envious to see so many Bamboo Bears again.

It ran to a Lightning Bamboo Bear.

Looking at the Lightning Bamboo Bear that was larger than its head, its eyes were filled with envy.

So handsome!

The Lightning Bamboo Bear looked at Bear Treasure and grinned. It gently raised its palm and could easily condense a lightning ball.

Even the purple patterns on its body lit up as if they had been charged.

Lightning sizzled.

It was abnormally cool!

Bear Treasure also raised its palm, but… nothing was condensed.

The Lightning Bamboo Bear laughed and patted Bear Treasure’s shoulder, indicating that this was because it had not evolved yet.

Bear Treasure: “…”

“Is there a specific reason?” Wang Che asked.

“We’ve studied it…” He Huan handed Wang Che a document, “There might be a weak bloodline of an ancient beast hidden in Bear Treasure’s body. Its genes have changed, causing its bloodline to not accept other energies. However, its bloodline is too weak and it’s very difficult to stimulate.”

“The bloodline of an ancient beast?” Wang Che was slightly stunned, “The Bamboo Bear can be related to the soul beasts of that era?”

“There are. In the Remote Antiquity Era, the Bamboo Bear had fangs and its entire body was a sharp weapon. Its strength had reached a very astonishing level. At the same time, because of the soul beasts of the Remote Antiquity Era, the reproductive problem was not as serious as it is now… Many soul beasts interacted and produced many descendants.”

“The bloodlines mixed.”

Wang Che: “…”

This world’s ancient era was really chaotic.

Hmm… it was not just this world. Many worlds’ ancient eras were very chaotic.

“As the living environment changed, the Bamboo Bear finally formed a relatively stable soul beast group in the Fallen Ancient Era and slowly continued.”

He Huan pointed at Bear Treasure and said, “According to the history of our West Peak Continent, there was such an example more than a hundred years ago.”

“What happened?” Wang Che asked.

He Huan did not answer directly.

“There are only a handful of ancient beasts left, and they are basically all in the extremely dangerous Soul Earth. Therefore, it’s almost impossible to activate the Giant Beast bloodline in Bear Treasure’s body.”

The previous example was probably not ideal.

“Our current soul pet training techniques are much stronger than a hundred years ago.” He Huan said, “Currently, Bear Treasure can be considered to have grown up. In addition, it has been sensible since it was young and has been working hard. It’s hard to say how far it can go in the future.”

Giant Beast… Giant Beast…

Wang Che looked at Bear Treasure and frowned slightly.

The Titan Beast was considered a pure-blooded Giant Beast.

However, the Titan Beast did not say that its bloodline could not absorb the energy of other attributes.

As a dragon killer from the ancient era, the Titan Beast controlled the power of lightning and ice.

The Meteor Ice Lightning formed by the fusion was terrifyingly powerful.

It was the strongest of the three lightning bolts controlled by the Magnetic Sword.

Why could it not absorb other energies?

At this moment, Bear Treasure walked up to the Mountain Bamboo Bear.

Looking at the Mountain Bamboo Bear, it felt very awe-inspiring.

The Mountain Bamboo Bear gently touched the mountain rock armor on its chest. The armor glowed and its entire body became hard, giving off a stable feeling.

Bear Treasure looked at its round belly and pressed it. Its belly caved in.

Nothing happened.

Bear Treasure: “…”
