Chapter 257

Soon, Su Hao smoothly became a junior high school student, but he never attended classes, spending all his time in the library of the middle school section, researching more abundant information. When faced with unclear questions, he would consult his teacher, Fu Leyi.

At the same time, he designed the genetic sequences for his chosen summoned beasts, evolving them step by step into exotic beasts of level four or higher. He also selected three summoned beasts for Sister Bai, evolving them together into exotic beasts of level four or higher.

Half a year quickly passed, and Su Hao applied for graduation again, continuing to the high school section with the help of Fu Leyi, gaining approval.

Meanwhile, his summoned beast legions had all reached the pinnacle of their beast lives, capable of exploding if they evolved further.

1. Sawtooth Guinea Pig, unfortunately still with [Speed Demon]; 2. Long-tailed White Fox, level five [Shadow King]; 3. Colorful Mountain Phoenix, level five [Sky King]; 4. Little White Rabbit, level four [Mad Demon]; 5. Egg-stealing Dragon, level five [Freak King]; 6. Golden-haired Long-haired Monkey, level five [Control King]; 7. Rock-spiked Tail Lizard, level five [Slaughter King]; 8. Ring-horned Antelope, [Eject King]; 9. Red-cheeked Messenger Bird, [Sky King]; 10. Snow Wolf, [Destruction King].

In total, ten of them, and both he and Yashan were “Shell People” sequence abnormal humans. To avoid being recognized, they didn’t let their summoned beasts evolve into abnormal beasts of the “Shell People” sequence.

At the same time, he helped Sister Bai evolve three summoned beasts: Red-tailed Crane, level five [Sky King], for riding; a night-roaming cat with claws, level five [Eject King], for stealthy attacks; and a long-armed ape, level five [Destruction King], for direct confrontation.

One afternoon, after Su Hao met Sister Bai, he directly exclaimed, “Wait, Sister Bai, I’ve prepared three summoned beasts for you, I’ve found them.”

Sister Bai had almost forgotten about this matter, originally not holding much hope, thinking Su Hao was just talking and didn’t care. Unexpectedly, after half a year, Su Hao had actually found three summoned beasts for her!

This made her extremely surprised, more curious about what kind of summoned beasts Su Hao had found for her.

Sister Bai said, “Did you really get me S-level summoned beasts?”

Su Hao replied, “Normally, at least A-level! They’re all quite good!”

With that, Su Hao focused and summoned the three summoned beasts he had prepared for Sister Bai from the sub-stars.

A red-tailed crane, the size of an elephant, walked out of the void slowly, its pure white feathers emitting a beautiful glow, standing quietly on the side.

Sister Bai recognized this summoned beast, but was very puzzled: this was a C-level summoned beast, the Red-tailed Crane. Besides its fast flying speed, it had little combat power, limited endurance, and couldn’t fly with a person for an extended period. How could this be an S-level summoned beast?

Next, a tiger-sized calico cat walked out with elegant steps, sitting down on the ground.

Then, a long-armed brown-haired gorilla followed closely, its fists hanging on the ground.

Sister Bai recognized these two, they were D-level Night-roaming Cat and D-level Long-armed Ape, quite common on the streets, and not very useful.

Sister Bai hesitated, “Su Hao, are these the at least A-level summoned beasts you mentioned?”

Su Hao smiled, “Don’t judge them by their appearance. They are now kings of their respective groups, just like my Sawtooth Guinea Pig, very powerful! You control them first, and you’ll see.”

Sister Bai said, “What about my Frost Iron Wolf…”

Su Hao said, “If it hasn’t formed a group, it’s not very useful. Just remove the mental imprint and release it! If you’re not at ease, you can keep it for now and control the Red-tailed Crane and Night-roaming Cat with the other two summoning slots. Decide whether to release it after trying.”

Sister Bai nodded, approached the Red-tailed Crane, sat down in front of it, and placed her hand on its forehead, closing her eyes in concentration.

Sister Bai’s mental tentacles extended out, forming a special structure, probing into the Red-tailed Crane’s brain. Su Hao, sensing Sister Bai’s intrusion, voluntarily withdrew his mental perception.

Whether releasing summoned beasts or having them killed, for summoners, it would result in a corresponding loss of mental power, requiring a very long time to recover. Therefore, for summoners with a limited ability to control summoned beasts, the choice of summoned beasts was especially cautious.

Due to her trust in Su Hao, Sister Bai chose to control the seemingly useless C-level Red-tailed Crane.

About ten minutes later, Sister Bai left her mental imprint in the Red-tailed Crane’s brain, gaining complete control over this summoned beast.

[Sky King] Red-tailed Crane!

At the same time, she also obtained the control information Su Hao deliberately left behind, understanding the skills of this Red-tailed Crane.

For a moment, her eyes widened. The skills of [Sky King] included ‘Silent Night Walk,’ ‘Life Detection,’ ‘Silent Flight,’ ‘Phasing Through Walls and Ground,’ ‘Eagle Claw,’ ‘Material Jump,’ ‘Concealment in Darkness,’ ‘Flying Claw,’ and ‘Midair Jump.’

Adding the two trash skills that originally came with the C-level summoned beast, there were a total of 11 skills! With just eight skills, it could be considered an S-level summoned beast.

Incredible!

Sister Bai’s mouth remained open for a long time. This Red-tailed Crane, which seemed unremarkable, turned out to be so powerful!

However, she still had some disbelief. So, with a bit of awkwardness, she controlled the Red-tailed Crane to activate ‘Phasing Through Walls and Ground.’ The Red-tailed Crane’s entire body suddenly grew a special kind of fine fur. Then, with a swift movement, it dove into the ground, freely swimming underground.

Sister Bai was nearly speechless: Damn, this is amazing!

She then controlled the Red-tailed Crane to use the next skill, ‘Material Jump.’ The Red-tailed Crane leaped out of the ground, plunged into a cement flower bed, and, in less than a breath’s time, emerged from the other side.

Following that, Sister Bai tried various skills, becoming more astonished with each attempt. Towards the end, she no longer doubted Su Hao’s words.

Seeing this, Su Hao smiled, “How about it, Queen of the Red-tailed Crane? Feels pretty good, right?”

Sister Bai, disregarding her image, directly reached out and touched the Red-tailed Crane all over, laughing loudly, “More than good! It’s amazing! Definitely qualifies as a top-tier summoned beast.”

Su Hao said, “Do you still want your Frost Iron Wolf?”

Sister Bai said, “No need for that! Come on, Jingzhong, quickly let me control the other two summoned beasts as well!”

After she controlled the [Eject King] Night-roaming Cat and the [Destruction King] Long-armed Ape, she curiously asked, “Jingzhong, how many summoned beasts can you control? What summoned beasts do you have?”

Su Hao didn’t directly answer but waved his hand, summoning all his summoned beast legion.

Gorgeous and exceptional summoned beasts appeared, as if entering a beauty pageant in the animal world.

All Sister Bai saw were charming low-level summoned beasts, showing no signs of formidable combat power. She couldn’t help but feel envy and admiration, saying, “Are these the kings of their races, S-level summoned beasts?”

Su Hao proudly said, “Exactly! How about it, aren’t my summoned beasts impressive?”

Then, Sister Bai looked back at her newly acquired three summoned beasts and suddenly felt less satisfied. These three summoned beasts couldn’t compare to her own beauty.

Although not ugly, they were far less magnificent than Su Hao’s summoned beast legion!

Indeed, the worst thing for people is comparison. Without it, there is no hurt! (End of this chapter)

    Chapter 257

    Before long, Su Hao officially entered middle school.

    However, he almost never attended classes.

    Instead, he spent nearly all of his time buried in the middle school library, studying the far richer collection of books. Whenever he encountered something he couldn't understand, he simply went to ask Fu Leyi.

    At the same time, he continued designing genetic sequences for the summoned beasts he had selected.

    One after another, he evolved them into Level 4 and Level 5 mutant beasts.

    He also prepared three specially selected summoned beasts for Sister Bai and evolved them alongside his own.

    Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

    Once again, Su Hao applied to graduate early.

    With Fu Leyi's recommendation, he successfully skipped straight into the high school division.


    ---

    By now, every member of Su Hao's summoned beast legion had reached the peak of its evolutionary potential.

    Attempting another evolution would simply cause them to explode.

    His lineup now consisted of:

    1. Sawtoothed Guinea Pig — Level 4 Speed Demon


    2. Long-Tailed White Fox — Level 5 Shadow King


    3. Colorful Mountain Phoenix — Level 5 Sky King


    4. White Rabbit — Level 4 Mad Demon


    5. Egg-Stealing Dragon — Level 5 Devouring King


    6. Golden-Furred Long-Haired Monkey — Level 5 Control King


    7. Rock-Spined Tail Lizard — Level 5 Slaughter King


    8. Ring-Horned Antelope — Level 5 Catapult King


    9. Red-Cheeked Messenger Bird — Level 5 Sky King


    10. Snow Wolf — Level 5 Destruction King



    Together with Su Hao and Yashan—both evolved along the Shell Person sequence—they now possessed an extremely formidable force.

    To avoid attracting attention, neither of them allowed their summoned beasts to evolve along the Shell Person evolutionary path.


    ---

    As promised...

    Su Hao also prepared three powerful summoned beasts for Sister Bai.

    Red-Tailed Crane → Level 5 Sky King, suitable for aerial transportation and reconnaissance.

    Night Prowler Cat → Level 5 Catapult King, specializing in stealth and assassination.

    Long-Armed Ape → Level 5 Destruction King, a close-range powerhouse.



    ---

    One afternoon, after meeting Sister Bai, Su Hao immediately said,

    "Sister Bai, come with me."

    "I've prepared your three summoned beasts."

    Sister Bai had nearly forgotten about the matter.

    She had always assumed Su Hao was simply making an offhand promise.

    After all...

    Finding S-Class summoned beasts wasn't something one could casually do.

    Yet now, six months later...

    He had actually done it.

    She couldn't hide her surprise.

    "You really found S-Class summoned beasts for me?"

    Su Hao smiled.

    "Strictly speaking..."

    "They're at least A-Class."

    "They're all excellent."

    With a thought...

    Three spatial ripples appeared.

    The first to emerge was an elephant-sized Red-Tailed Crane.

    Its snow-white feathers gleamed brilliantly beneath the sunlight.

    It quietly stood nearby with extraordinary elegance.

    Sister Bai immediately recognized it.

    "A Red-Tailed Crane?"

    "It isn't this a C-Class summoned beast?"

    "It flies quickly..."

    "But its combat ability is poor."

    "It tires easily and can't even carry someone over long distances."

    "How is this supposed to be S-Class?"


    ---

    A second summoned beast stepped out.

    It was a tiger-sized Night Prowler Cat.

    Graceful.

    Elegant.

    It calmly sat down without making a sound.

    The third was a massive Long-Armed Ape with brown fur and fists dragging across the ground.

    Sister Bai recognized both of them immediately.

    The Night Prowler Cat was only D-Class.

    The Long-Armed Ape was also D-Class.

    Neither was particularly rare.

    Nor especially useful.

    She hesitated.

    "Su Hao..."

    "Are these really the A-Class summoned beasts you were talking about?"

    Su Hao chuckled.

    "Never judge a summoned beast by its species."

    "They're already kings of their races."

    "Just like my Sawtoothed Guinea Pig."

    "They're far stronger than they look."

    "Control them first."

    "You'll understand."


    ---

    Sister Bai hesitated again.

    "What about my Frost Iron Wolf?"

    Su Hao replied,

    "If it hasn't evolved into a king..."

    "It isn't worth much anymore."

    "You can erase your mental imprint and release it."

    "If you're worried..."

    "Keep it for now."

    "Control the Red-Tailed Crane and Night Prowler Cat first."

    "You can decide later."

    Sister Bai nodded.

    She sat cross-legged before the Red-Tailed Crane and placed one hand upon its forehead.

    Closing her eyes...

    She extended her mental tendrils into its consciousness.

    Su Hao quietly withdrew his own mental imprint.


    ---

    For summoners...

    Whether a summoned beast died...

    Or was voluntarily released...

    The mental backlash was significant.

    Recovery required a very long time.

    Because of this...

    Every summoner was extremely cautious when choosing permanent partners.

    Yet Sister Bai trusted Su Hao completely.

    Without hesitation...

    She chose the seemingly mediocre Red-Tailed Crane.


    ---

    Ten minutes later...

    The contract was complete.

    She had become the Red-Tailed Crane's new master.

    At the same time...

    The information Su Hao had deliberately left behind flowed directly into her consciousness.

    The crane's skill list appeared before her.

    Her eyes widened instantly.

    The Sky King Red-Tailed Crane possessed:

    Silent Night Flight

    Life Detection

    Silent Flight

    Earth Phasing

    Eagle Claw

    Matter Shift

    Shadow Concealment

    Flying Claw

    Mid-Air Step


    Together with its original two racial abilities...

    It possessed eleven skills in total.

    Any summoned beast with eight or more skills was already considered S-Class.

    Eleven...

    Was simply unbelievable.

    Sister Bai stood frozen.

    This ordinary-looking crane...

    Was actually this terrifying?


    ---

    Unable to believe it...

    She immediately tested one of its abilities.

    "Earth Phase."

    A layer of strange, silky fur instantly covered the crane's body.

    Then—

    It dove straight into the ground.

    As though the earth were water...

    It swam effortlessly beneath the surface.

    Sister Bai was completely speechless.

    "This..."

    "This is incredible..."

    She immediately tried another skill.

    "Matter Shift."

    The crane burst upward from underground...

    Dove directly into a solid concrete flower bed...

    And emerged effortlessly from the opposite side.

    Next came one skill after another.

    The more she experimented...

    The more astonished she became.

    Eventually...

    Every trace of doubt disappeared.


    ---

    Seeing her expression...

    Su Hao laughed.

    "So?"

    "How's the Queen of the Red-Tailed Cranes?"

    Sister Bai completely abandoned her usual elegance.

    She hugged the crane excitedly and stroked its feathers over and over.

    "It's wonderful!"

    "No..."

    "It's unbelievable!"

    "This is definitely a top-tier summoned beast!"

    Su Hao smiled.

    "So..."

    "Still want to keep your Frost Iron Wolf?"

    Sister Bai immediately shook her head.

    "Forget the wolf!"

    "Hurry!"

    "Let me contract the other two as well!"


    ---

    After successfully contracting the Catapult King Night Prowler Cat and the Destruction King Long-Armed Ape...

    Sister Bai finally asked the question she had been wondering about.

    "Jingzhong..."

    "How many summoned beasts can you control now?"

    "And what summoned beasts do you have?"

    Instead of answering...

    Su Hao simply waved his hand.

    One after another...

    Spatial ripples spread through the courtyard.

    His entire summoned beast legion emerged.

    Beautiful.

    Majestic.

    Elegant.

    Every one of them looked as though they had walked straight out of an animal beauty pageant.

    Not a single one appeared ferocious.

    Yet every single one possessed terrifying strength.

    Sister Bai stared in amazement.

    "So..."

    "These are all kings of their races?"

    "All S-Class summoned beasts?"

    Su Hao folded his arms proudly.

    "Exactly."

    "So?"

    "My legion isn't bad, right?"


    ---

    Sister Bai glanced back at her own three summoned beasts.

    Then looked again at Su Hao's dazzling legion.

    Suddenly...

    Her own companions didn't seem nearly as impressive anymore.

    They weren't ugly.

    Far from it.

    But standing beside Su Hao's carefully designed summoned beasts...

    They simply couldn't compare.

    Indeed...

    Comparison was the thief of joy.

    Without comparison...

    There would be no disappointment.
