The pursuit of beauty is an instinct of life—whether human or Pet Beast, none are exempt.
The Abyssal Water Phoenix Fledgling, evolved from the Ugly Waterfowl, undoubtedly represented the pinnacle of beauty. It quickly exploded across the internet—its debut clips were shared everywhere, becoming a trending topic.
Jiang Xing himself was already a well-known "forbidden beast researcher." He had first risen to fa through the Rainbow Dragon Hatchling, and had even released sothing like the Undead Guardian Hound—a rather eerie Pet Beast.
And now, he had unveiled the Abyssal Water Phoenix Fledgling—
A breathtaking Pet Beast combining phoenix and water attributes. Like true dragon-type species, it also had the potential to grow into an Overlord-tier lineage.
If that was the case, would its talent, Ultimate Color, be as powerful as that of the Rainbow Dragon Hatchling?
This question sparked imnse curiosity among Beast Tars.
However…
Jiang Xing didn't write it.
That's right—although he posted the video along with the Compendium entries for all three forms, he only shared the basic information: Species Tier, attributes, and description.
He did not reveal any details about their talents.
For a brand-new talent like Ultimate Color, no one could even begin to guess its effect.
[Boss, even if it's not accurate, just release it so we can see!]
[How can you do this? This is straight-up teasing!]
[Last ti with the Rainbow Dragon Hatchling it was the sa—he clearly knew the talent but didn't say it. Damn cliffhanger demon!]
[He's hiding it again this ti—it must be another insane talent!]
[Su Muli: (Wrathful Sea Lizard)]
On social dia, Beast Tars scratched their heads in frustration at the talent na of the Abyssal Water Phoenix Fledgling, growing increasingly restless.
Jiang Xing laughed.
That's right—this was exactly the reaction he wanted.
That desperate, can't-have-it expression.
Of course, there was a reason why he deliberately released only half the information, keeping everyone hooked.
As curiosity continued to build and the post's popularity surged—Jiang Xing casually stepped back in and posted another update.
[Thank you all for your attention. The three new evolution forms of the Ugly Waterfowl were developed by based on Friendship Theory.]
[The research is only halfway complete. The exact evolution conditions and talent details are still under study.]
[As for when everything will be revealed…]
[In half a month, I will host an Evolution Conference in Yuzhong City!]
[This will be a conference specifically dedicated to Friendship Evolution. At that ti, I will publicly reveal all information and evolution thods for the Abyssal Water Phoenix Fledgling, Mysticfeather Peacock, and Clouddown Bird!]
[Here, I sincerely invite all Pet Beast scholars researching Friendship Evolution to participate in the conference and present your findings.]
[As the organizer of this conference, I will not participate as a contestant, but will instead serve as a judge in the final evaluation.]
[And I will personally present a mysterious prize to the winner of the Best Research Award!]
[I look forward to seeing you all there.]
On social dia, the Beast Tars—who had initially been extrely agitated, urging Jiang Xing to reveal the details—cald down almost imdiately after reading this post.
Makes sense.
Serious researchers always publish their results at Evolution Conferences.
Who would post a full research paper on social dia?
Beast Tars were already accustod to attending various Evolution Conferences. Accepting this arrangent felt completely natural—and they quickly shifted to anticipation instead.
Friendship Evolution was the hottest topic lately!
An Evolution Conference centered on Friendship Evolution, hosted by Jiang Xing—the "Father of Friendship"—and featuring phoenix-type Pet Beasts…
Wasn't this a chance to witness history with your own eyes!?
If you weren't interested in sothing like this, what kind of Beast Tar were you supposed to be?
I need to book a ticket imdiately!
…
When Pet Beast scholars saw this news, their hearts couldn't help but stir as well—
An evolution form like the Abyssal Water Phoenix Fledgling—if it were to participate in any Evolution Conference—would be just like the Rainbow Dragon Hatchling, heading straight for the Best Research Award.
Any researcher aiming for that award would normally choose to avoid it and participate in a different conference.
No one would travel thousands of miles just to be a background participant.
But Jiang Xing had publicly announced that he wouldn't compete for the awards—instead, he would serve as a judge…
This clearly wasn't so April Fool's joke. It was enough to dispel all concerns among researchers and let them focus entirely on the awards themselves—
Jiang Xing wasn't just a student of Dr. Xu; he also had so many research achievents. The resources at his disposal must be maxed out!
The "mysterious prize" he ntioned had to be a genuine treasure!
After all, this was his first ti hosting a conference—would he really dare to put out sothing cheap?
The curiosity surrounding that mysterious prize greatly boosted the enthusiasm of Pet Beast scholars.
At this mont, the official account of China reposted Jiang Xing's update and comnted:
[This Evolution Conference hosted by Mr. Jiang Xing will be jointly prepared with our assistance.]
[In addition, for the award winners of this conference, we will provide rewards at the level of a national academic conference.]
[Scholars who wish to participate may contact us directly.]
In the Beast Taming world, Evolution Conferences were divided into several tiers based on reward levels.
At the top were the most prestigious and influential academic events—World-Class Conferences.
These were held at longer intervals, with participants being top researchers and Beast Taming doctors from various regions. The results presented there were the most cutting-edge and advanced.
At such conferences, it wasn't just "stable Overlord-tier" true dragon species that appeared—
Even genuine Demi-God-tier species would show up from ti to ti!
Below that were the National-Level Conferences.
The Shanghai Evolution Conference belonged to this tier, featuring all kinds of frontier research results and attracting nurous researchers.
Further down were Regional-Level and University-Level conferences… with rewards and influence decreasing accordingly.
And now—
The official account of China had actually offered national-level rewards for this event!
Combined with the influence of Friendship Theory itself… this was effectively a top-tier Evolution Conference within China, comparable to the Shanghai Evolution Conference!
As long as one could win an award, both rewards and prestige would co in abundance!
Once they realized this, all scholars who had completed research—or were currently working on Friendship Evolution—did not hesitate to contact the officials and begin registering!
In just a single day, nineteen research institutes or individual researchers had successfully registered.
This ant their research topics had passed official review.
'Because the preparation ti is relatively short, and so research topics are quite ti-consuming, the registration deadline for the Friendship Evolution Conference is set three days before the event begins…'
'At this rate, by the ti the conference starts, there will be at least forty different research outcos.'
'Looks like there really are quite a lot of evolution forms related to Friendship.'
Jiang Xing recalled the system mission content and couldn't help but smile.
This wave… how was the system supposed to respond?
Before the system could even give its "thoughts," Jiang Xing received another call from Chang Feng.
"Jiang Xing, a few students from the Beast Tar school will be coming to your place tomorrow to select so Golden-Patterned Koi. Would that be convenient for you?"
