The innocent young man whose shoulder was clutched by him had empty eyes, confused and helpless: "I~ don't~ know~ ah~ ah~ ah... You~ first~ let~ go~ of~ me~ ugh..."

Some people had already calmed down and were analyzing rationally.

"It's obvious that's definitely an Advanced Level pet!"

"Nonsense, even a fool can see that!"

"Friends, I have a possibly immature but well-formed idea."

"Me too..."

"Me too..."

"...I think it might be an evolved form of the Thunder Demon Bird?"

"Haha, great minds think alike."

"That's impossible, right?"

"Why is it impossible? Look at the appearance, skills, and attributes of that big bird; it's clearly an advanced version of the Thunder Demon Bird!"

"But isn't the Thunder Demon Bird unable to evolve?"

"Then what do you say this is? It can't be the second pet Mingxi contracted, can it? Have you ever seen a Beast Tamers who can directly contract an Advanced Level pet?"

"But..."

"No buts! I'll bet my future husband's hundred years of lifespan that this big bird is definitely an evolved form of the Thunder Demon Bird!"

"I've tried with my pet identification device, and it can't identify it. My pet identification device is a full-recognition level.

What does this mean? It means this big bird must be a new evolved form. If it's not an evolved form of the Thunder Demon Bird, then what could it be?"

"No need to guess, the truth is already before everyone's eyes."

"What a majestic big bird, it's clearly extraordinary at first glance."

"Ah ah ah... Who said the Thunder Demon Bird couldn't evolve? Who said it? Get lost ah ah ah ah..."

"Where are the event hosts? Where are the reporters? Where did they all die? Don't they have any discernment! Someone come quickly, go stop Mingxi, go interview her, go ask her the truth ah ah ah ah!"

Excited, frenzied, and even those performing shamanic rituals on the spot, it was simply a large-scale human atavism scene.

Mingxi was completely thrown off.

She shivered and quickly recalled Golden Yuanbao, preparing to leave the stage, but was stopped at the exit.

The person's work ID, worn on their chest, indicated they were a reporter from Han Ning City Television.

Behind her followed a camera, also wearing an interview pass. Its single eye, almost occupying half its face, widened and continuously scanned Mingxi up and down, indicating it was in filming mode.

The audience's actions were effective; a reporter broke through the Staff Member's defense line and successfully reached Mingxi.

The female ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) reporter's cheeks were flushed, and her expression was agitated. One would think she was interviewing her male idol.

"Hello, Mingxi, I'm a reporter from the city television station. I'd like to ask you, was that pet just now an evolved form of the Thunder Demon Bird?"

The female reporter didn't want to proceed gradually at all; she went straight to the question everyone was most concerned about.

This was a question that had to be faced sooner or later, so Mingxi didn't hide it and nodded: "Yes."

Although the conversation between the reporter and Mingxi was not loud, at this moment, the audience seemed to have developed clairvoyance and clairaudience.

Mingxi's shy nod (not) like a water lotus, her sweet murmur (delusional) like celestial music, they all saw and heard it.

Really!

The Thunder Demon Bird really evolved!

The female reporter's hand holding the microphone trembled slightly, and the light in her eyes was even more scorching than the sun.

She continued to ask: "When did the Thunder Demon Bird evolve?"

"Yesterday."

"Then what is the name of its new evolved form? Have you decided yet?"

The Alliance has clear regulations that the first Beast Tamers to cultivate a new evolved form of a Transcendent creature has the right to name that new evolved form.

Mingxi: "Its name is Lei Yan Great Wind."

The audience heard Mingxi's words, and the stands erupted again.

"Lei Yan Great Wind!"

"The evolved form of the Thunder Demon Bird is called Lei Yan Great Wind!"

"Ah ah ah ah, I love Lei Yan Great Wind so much. I've decided, once I awaken my second Soul Key, I'll go contract a Golden Feather Finch!"

"Don't be too hasty. Do you know how to make the Thunder Demon Bird evolve into Lei Yan Great Wind before you go contract a Golden Feather Finch? Wait until the Alliance researches the evolution method. What if Mingxi's Lei Yan Great Wind is unique?"

"Impossible, right?"

"Believe me, anything is possible."

The reporter obviously wanted to know how Mingxi managed to make the Thunder Demon Bird evolve, but Mingxi did not answer this question.

It wasn't that she was petty and hiding it.

Rather, new evolution routes and related evolution methods must be researched, confirmed, and verified as scientifically reasonable and effective by professional research institutions before the Yushou Center will announce them to the public.

This is also to avoid unnecessary confusion, as some evolution methods are only applicable to single pet individuals, not the entire species.

The female reporter quickly realized she had asked an abrupt question and quickly apologized to Mingxi.

Mingxi waved her hand, not minding: "The next match is about to begin, so I'll head back to the waiting area first."

Although the female reporter didn't want to let her go, she also knew she had no right to prevent a contestant from returning to prepare.

She could only order the camera to make way.

As soon as Mingxi entered the contestant waiting area, she felt an inexplicable pressure.

She looked up and met Fu Yifan's tearful eyes.

"Junior, you've kept me in such bitter suspense... So bitter... So bitter..."

Mingxi shivered.

"Senior, please be normal."

Her hair was about to collectively become monks.

It was strangely unsettling.

Fu Yifan felt he couldn't be normal; when he saw the refreshed Golden Yuanbao, his entire soul left his body.

The Thunder Demon Bird actually evolved successfully?

And into such a mighty and majestic form?

And Mingxi, the Junior, had kept such an important matter from him, leaving him and everyone else dumbfounded.

How could he bear it?

"Am I still your closest Senior? You didn't even mention such a big deal as the Thunder Demon Bird evolving last night?"

He clutched his chest: "Ah! My heart aches!"

Mingxi: "..."

She admitted there was a slight intentional component to it.

Young and reckless, rarely chuunibyou.

She was just an ordinary Junior high student, and at a crucial moment, she felt it would be wrong not to show off like this.

"Ahem, I'll tell you a secret later to make up for your wounded heart."

She had hidden more than just Golden Yuanbao's matter.

Fu Yifan was stunned for a moment.

What did Junior mean by that? Could there be a bigger secret than the Thunder Demon Bird evolving?

"What is it? Can you tell me now?"

Mingxi gave him a look that said 'figure it out yourself'.

Although the stadium was in chaos due to the Thunder Demon Bird's evolved form appearing, the scheduled matches still had to proceed.

Fu Sushu and Hua Lu had already walked onto the competition stage.

However, both of them seemed a bit out of sorts, clearly having been shocked out of their wits by the Thunder Demon Bird's evolution.

The referee's whistle barely brought them back to their senses, and they began to battle normally.

There was a reason why Fu Sushu had his eyes set high.
