Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely-Chapter 240 - 236: X Beta Francis Professor
Chapter 240: Chapter 236: X Beta Francis Professor
Translator: 549690339
Bai Qi didn’t know how much time had passed before he finally stopped. He stared at the massive structure of the new Spirit-Control Orb in front of him, his mind feeling somewhat dizzy.
During his previous state of concentration, Bai Qi had perfected the structure of the Spirit-Control Orb. He not only strengthened the structure for spiritual communication but also greatly refined the function of the contract rune.
Moreover, the design of this structure also adopted the layout of the Mechanical Engineering Department, signifying a complete transformation.
“I don’t know how effective it will be. If it works, it would mean we have developed a whole new system.”
Bai Qi ended the projection and intended to ask Schuck about the status of the Spirit Power Storage Device. He saw Schuck fitting a helmet onto Beta.
“Schuck, what are you up to?”
Bai Qi drew nearer, curious. Just as he was about to question further, he felt a surge of powerful Spirit Power sweeping towards him. Then a familiar voice sounded in his mind.
“Human, I can speak to you directly now!”
Bai Qi was startled, but he quickly confirmed that Beta was not using the contract to communicate with him. Instead, it was directly connecting to his mind using Spirit Power.
“Did you use Soul Whisper?”
“No, I simply connected to your Spirit Power directly.”
Beta seemed extremely satisfied with his current state, continuously sharing his joy within Bai Qi’s mind. Already feeling dizzy from overthinking, Bai Qi only felt a sense of vertigo, wanting to disconnect but couldn’t.
Beta had forcefully established a connection with him using Spirit Power, a connection that even the contract couldn’t interrupt, unless Bai Qi’s Spirit power surpassed Beta’s or if he used the contract to forcibly control Beta’s actions. Otherwise, it was impossible to break.
Luckily, Bai Qi quickly identified the source of the issue: pulling off the metallic helmet on Beta’s head, the jumbled voices instantly disappeared.
Woof woof!
(Human, why have you stripped me of my joy!)
Seeing Beta’s plaintive attempt to snatch back the helmet, Bai Qi’s curiosity about the helmet grew. He examined it closely but couldn’t infer anything. “Schuck, what have you tinkered out this time?”
Schuck took over the helmet and explained, “I imitated the Spirit Power Storage structure from your new design, replaced it with Spirit Power Amplification Runes, and created a Spirit Power Amplifier. This helmet is a sample of it.”
“A Spirit Power Amplifier?”
Holding the helmet in his hands, Bai Qi couldn’t help but think of a bald professor from a certain crime-fighting squad who could peek into everyone’s minds once he wore a helmet.
Could that really be possible?
Thinking this, Bai Qi put the helmet back onto Beta’s head, and the familiar voice resounded in his mind again.
“Schuck, next time remember to fasten this helmet to me. I’m not planning on taking it off.”
While protecting the helmet firmly, Beta watched Bai Qi warily, afraid that Bai Qi might snatch it again.
“Huh? There really are humans who can peek into others’ minds?”
Just as Bai Qi was about to ask more about the Spirit Power Amplifier Helmet, Beta seemed to have gleaned something from Bai Qi’s memory, a glimmer of longing in his eyes.
“Guiding lost youths into becoming great heroes? That human is so cool!”
Hearing Beta’s words, Bai Qi instantly realized something. He hurriedly used the contract to sever his connection with Beta, but Beta seemed to already be engrossed in his own fantasies and didn’t care at all.
“I have decided. I also want to become such an existence. From today onwards, please refer to me as X-Beta-Francis Professor!”
This guy, he really peeped into my memories…
Seeing this, Bai Qi sighed in frustration and said, “Schuck, your Spirit Power Amplifier… never mind, let’s just call it the Mind Helmet. How many folds can this Mind Helmet amplify Spirit Power?”
“Theoretically, it can be amplified by up to roughly twenty-fold. However, when considering tolerance limits, the maximum is ten-fold, and it can’t be maintained for long. If sustained operation is needed, three to five-fold is the optimal range.”
Schuck promptly reported his theoretical data, adding, “Meanwhile, to ensure that Spirit Power is not overconsumed, I also incorporated your Spirit Power Storage Device into the helmet. Verification suggests that it can store around twice Beta’s current total Spirit Power.”
“Hm, it can store such a large amount?”
Bai Qi’s eyes lit up when he heard this. Although he anticipated considerable improvements after this major modification, he didn’t think the outcome would be this good.
Together with the Mind Helmet that Schuck had tinkered out himself, he no longer needed to verify the feasibility of merging runes with machines.
“But Schuck, do you intend to use the Mind Helmet in battles?”
Schuck nodded and answered, “Sort of. However, this is just an experiment since it relies on the Spirit Power Storage Device. More experiments are needed if we want widespread usage.”
Seeing the excited look on Beta’s face, Bai Qi proposed, “Why not test your current battle power? If your Spirit Power has increased, your battle power should be stronger, right?”
“That’s also good, I also intend to test Beta’s tolerance limit.”
Schuck agreed with Bai Qi’s suggestion, and Beta was even more excited, nodding repeatedly.
“Then let’s start. Soul Whisper!”
“Don’t do it here—”
Seeing Beta attempting to use a skill right there, Bai Qi immediately wanted to stop him, but before he finished his sentence, a terrifying Spirit Storm surged towards him. Bai Qi immediately fell over, unconscious.
Awooo!
(What happened to the human?)
“He was knocked out by your Spirit Power.”
Awooo?
(How? I didn’t aim at the human?)
“You amplified it ten-fold just now. Even the residual Spirit Power was enough.”
Woof woof!
(If the residuals are this powerful, doesn’t that mean I’m already very strong!})
“In theory, if the Beast Master woke up without slicing you up, yes.”
Awoooo?
(Can I escape under the cover of night in time?)
Schuck: “…”
After a while, Bai Qi finally woke up, feeling a splitting headache, much like a hangover.
“That Beta guy, daring to use Soul Whisper on me, it’s like betrayal…”
Bai Qi diligently recalled everything that had happened before. The fact that Beta had stunned him directly with spirit power left him both angry and a little surprised.
Being able to knock him out directly through spirit power, how many times had the Mind Helmet amplified this guy’s spirit power?
Well, it doesn’t seem too bad, if I secretly use this in a future battle, I guess not many Beast Masters can withstand it.
Even if it doesn’t work on Beast Masters, it’s probably a considerable shock for pets as well. I should find Alpha and test it out together.
Awoooo…
(Human, you’re awake, how do you feel?)
As Bai Qi was contemplating on the battlefield use of the Mind Helmet, Beta came running over with a servile look on his face, his mechanical arm even holding a basket of Angel Fruits, clearly demonstrating his understanding of the rules.
“You dumb dog, you need to learn how to control your spirit power.”
Bai Qi patted Beta’s head gently as a reminder, causing Beta, who had been prepared for a slicing, to be taken aback. But before he could relax, he suddenly felt a force from the hand Bai Qi had placed on his head. Bai Qi’s voice also turned cold.
“If you injure me again, get ready to be sliced up!”
Awooo…
(I understand…)
Seeing Beta relenting, Bai Qi finally nodded satisfactorily. Looking at the Mind Helmet set aside, he said, “Schuck, make me a spirit isolation helmet when you get a chance. Otherwise, I fear this fool might turn me into an idiot.”
“I’m already designing it, it should be ready soon.”
Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. He then turned his gaze back to Beta and said, “The shock just now was indeed strong. Soul Whisper is a bit inappropriate. We might as well rename it Spirit Storm.”
Awoooo?
(Spirit Storm? Sounds powerful, I like it!)
Beta was obviously very pleased with the name of his new skill, he immediately wanted to put on the helmet again and give it another try. But seeing Bai Qi’s murderous gaze, he backed down.
“Go and work on your control skills before the Spirit Isolation Helmet is ready. Otherwise, it’s useless if your spirit power is too dispersed, no matter how strong it is.”
Awooo…
(Yes, yes, yes, I’ll go and practice right away…)
Looking at the Mind Helmet that Bai Qi had sealed away, Beta was unbearably distressed. But thinking of a certain bald professor’s experience, he suddenly got a burst of energy.
One day, I’ll be such an inspiring figure!
Hmm, isn’t it the same idea in the scriptures that humans give?
I got it!
Beta seemed to have figured out some key point and immediately entered a state of meditation, leaving Bai Qi somewhat puzzled.
Why is this guy suddenly so obedient?
Bai Qi scratched his head in confusion, then sent the new design of the Spirit- Control Orb to Schuck, saying, “Schuck, hurry up and make me a prototype. I’ll go find Cha to test its effects.”
Zhuge Chen wasn’t nearby, so Bai Qiucha, who already had all his contract slots filled, was naturally the best choice to test the Spirit-Control Orb.
The assembly hall.
Bai Qiucha walked out of the portal, glanced at his name at the top of the scoreboard, and his eyes became even more resolute.

Ever since Bai Qi returned from the Thousand Cliff Stone Forest, apart from seeking notes from him at fixed times every day, he hardly ever came to the training. The instructors seemed to accept this behavior and never listed Bai Qi’s scores.
But everyone knew that if Bai Qi came back, he would probably be the one in first place.
“What’s wrong, Cha? You’re still in this mood even after getting first place again?”
Xiao Yuan, who was just one point behind Bai Qiucha, stepped forward and chuckled, “Is it because without Bai Qi here it feels a bit dull?”
Bai Qiucha said: “The pressure from you guys is huge, Xiao Yuan. I’ve been giving it my all. I just feel like something’s missing.”
Xiao Yuan laughed, “That’s right, without Bai Qi, this anomaly, leading the way, I also feel there’s no motivation to chase.”
“Cut it out, you two freaks, stop reflecting here. At least leave some room for us normal people to survive. We’re on the verge of collapsing…”
Bai Yuxiao walked over with a contemptuous look on his face, complaining, “Because of you two, the instructors have raised the pass mark several times already. If this continues, I’ll be beaten by my dad again.”
“Be grateful. If Bai Qi were still here, the pass mark would probably increase even faster.”
Bai Yuxiao waved his hand at these words, “No way. I heard from my dad that Bai Qi has been hanging out in the Tower of Knowledge lately. It’d be strange to run into him.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qiucha suddenly poked Bai Yuxiao, and then pointed forward, “Look, a ‘ghost’ is coming.”
Bai Yuxiao followed the direction of Bai Qiucha’s finger and saw Bai Qi running towards them in a hurry.
Oh my god, does he have some sort of magical mouth? What he calls, comes?
Let’s do it again, I want to become the strongest!
