Chapter 275: Chapter 271: The Big Deception-

Seeing that Bai Heguang didn’t reprimand Bai Qi for his earlier actions, Duanmeng was quite surprised, but considering Bai Qi’s recent behavior, he chose not to dwell on it.

Having such a mischievous disciple around, it’s no wonder anyone’s nerves would be tested.

“But there are quite a few traditional Beast Masters among the freshmen, Bai Qi’s words just now are likely to provoke their resentment.”

“It’s okay, they are just students who haven’t had any real-world experiences yet. Bai Qj can handle them.”

Bai Heguang glanced at Bai Qi, who had run backstage to check the courseware, and then turned to Duanmeng. “I will likely be away for a while this time, and I’m leaving Qiu Cha and Bai Qi in your care.”

Duanmeng nodded, saying, “Take care, Bai Chuanqi. We’ll handle things here.” As honorary dean, Bai Heguang technically didn’t have to manage things personally, but his nature couldn’t allow him to simply hold a nominal position. Thus, amidst his busy schedule, Bai Heguang returned to the Undead Department to deal with some core business.

Of course, one of the reasons might have been to check on Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha.

Upon hearing Duanmeng’s words, Bai Heguang nodded slightly, then quickly left the room.

“To see Bai Chuanqi take such interest, Bai Qi really is a fortunate fellow…”

Watching Bai Qi, who had returned to the front desk, Duanmeng couldn’t help but comment, then returned to observing the proceedings.

“Cough cough, due to some force majeure, the courseware I was just preparing can’t be presented now. I apologize, everybody.”

After confirming the content of the courseware, Bai Qi completely gave up on his plan to slack off and had no choice but to step up.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to slack off, it was that the number of “valuable takeaways” in Schuck’s courseware was too overwhelming.

“Metal Framework of Skeletal Beings”, “Physical Combination of Multi – headed Skeletal Beings”, “Feasibility of Hosting Intelligent Brains in Undead Spirits”…

All kinds of bizarre ideas kept emerging, and Bai Qi had every reason to suspect that Schuck had thought about this for a long time.

However, that wasn’t the point. While the content did involve mechanical modifications to the Undead Department, and indeed demonstrated considerable feasibility, Bai Qi couldn’t continue reading after seeing a string of Buddhist terms in the latter part.

Without a doubt, this part was definitely prepared by Beta, the fool.

Promoting Buddhism in the Beast Master World, he didn’t want to be arrested as the leader of a cult.

“Sir Bai, it should be fine for me to call you that, right?”

Seeing Bai Qi in such an awkward position, Li Xin, who already had some preconceptions about Bai Qi, stood up. “You just said that the Undead Department is a brand new kind of being, which I agree with. But when you said we should combine the Undead with machinery, I can’t agree with that.” Hearing Li Xin’s words, Bai Qi sighed.

As expected, he’d run into a critic.

“And how do you think it should be done?”

However, Bai Qi wasn’t angry but looked at Li Xin calmly.

“The Undead are the Undead, the bearers of the Shadow Department’s power. Whether they are skeletons or spirit creatures, they are born from the shadow. Random alterations will only make them drift away from the Shadow Department Power, leading to them becoming neither one thing nor the other.” Li Xin’s words resonated with many, and even those who had somewhat supported Bai Qi now looked at him skeptically, all wanting to see what explanation he would offer.

“You’re correct in saying that the Shadow Department Power indeed is the core of the Undead Department, a point I believe I covered in my presentation.” With a faint smile, Bai Qi continued, “As for your talk of ‘random alterations’, I’d like to ask, have you ever used Rune Evolution?”

Li Xin frowned slightly, unsure of why Bai Qi was suddenly bringing up Rune Evolution at this time, but he nodded, “Rune Evolution is a distinctive product of the Undead Department, so yes, and I have successfully completed the Second Stage Evolution.”

“Then do you know that the thinking approach of Second Stage Evolution is originated from the Mechanical Engineering Department?”

Upon hearing Bai Qi’s words, Li Xin instinctively wanted to mock Bai Qi.

A Rune and machinery are both completely different, claiming that the methodology of Rune Evolution comes from the Mechanical Engineering Department, was he trying to fool me?

Fortunately, before Li Xin had blurted out his words, he remembered.

The person standing in front of him, the one spouting all this nonsense, was the founder of Rune Evolution, wasn’t he?

Seeing Li Xin’s indecisive manner, Bai Qi laughed and continued, “I bet many of you here have used Rune Evolution or Rune Tier 2 Evolution, but have you ever thought about the principles behind it?”

The crowd lapsed into silence at his words. While they were curious about Rune Evolution, the requirement of having to also study runeology deterred most from diving in deeper. As for the underlying principles, absolutely no thought was given to that.

Bai Qi wasn’t surprised at the reaction. He snapped his fingers and the backstage staff immediately brought a skeletal soldier onto the stage.

Due to the course’s requirements, skeletal soldiers were almost essential for every class. They were well-prepared for it.

Bai Qi brought the skeletal soldier in front of Li Xin, glanced at the name tag on Li Xin’s school uniform, and asked, “Li Xin, if I had a contract with a skeletal soldier, how would you train it?”

Li Xin paused for a moment and said, “The level of the skeletal soldier is too low, there’s no need to train it. If you must train, you could place it in an area abundant with shadow department power to enhance its potential and increase the possibility of evolution.”

“A very standard answer, but unfortunately, it’s wrong,” Bai Qi said.

Bai Qi shookhis head and replied, “Exactly as you said, the level of the skeletal soldier is too low, there’s indeed no need to train it. But the ones who would make a contract with a skeletal soldier, disregard some special cases, are usually with poor family conditions. Do you think these families could afford to soak the skeletal soldier in shadow department power?”

Li Xin was speechless at Bai Qi’s argument but remained unconvinced.

Beast Mastery wasn’t a profession that ordinary people could afford to get into. If they couldn’t afford the initial resources, they wouldn’t even think about the later stages.

Li Xin’s judgment was clouded by his personal emotions, but Deng E below was able to discern some implications.

Was rune evolution created to assist those with relatively poorer conditions? It was no wonder Bai Qi, despite being the same age, had reached such a stage. This level was indeed beyond their reach.

Sure enough, after seeing the disgruntled look on Li Xin’s face, Bai Qi showed a triumphant smile. He walked over to the skeletal soldier and said, “This skeletal soldier has strong bones, so it is more suitable for defense or close combat training. As long as the appropriate runes are added in the right places to promote evolution, it can have a certain combat power.”

“Only when the beast master gains some combat power can he rely on the skeletal soldier to obtain more resources to improve himself. Li Xin, what do you think?”

Li Xin pursed his lips and said, “All in all, we still need evolution. Not everyone can learn rune evolution.”

“No, no, no, second stage evolution might be difficult, but most people should be able to master first stage evolution on their own.”

As he spoke, Bai Qi took out a rune engraving knife and quickly engraved a steel rune on the spine of the skeletal soldier. He then took the homogeneous material the staff had brought and placed it on top, and the skeletal soldier immediately evolved into a steel skull, a steel type creature.

“You all saw that the entire evolution process did not exceed five minutes, and the rune patterns I carved have already been made public by my team. As for this secondary material, I assume those present wouldn’t even glance at it usually, right?”

Bai Qi looked at the crowd and said, “Learning the entire rune system might be a lot of pressure, but I believe it shouldn’t be a problem for you all to learn just one direction, right?”

The spectators that heard this fell silent. Indeed, if they just specialized in one direction, then not just them, many people could do it. The act of engraving oneself wasn’t a big problem either.

“But how does that help? It’s still just a servant.” Li Xin still refused to admit defeat.

Bai Qi wasn’t bothered by this. He continued to engrave along the previous rune. Under the surprised eyes of everyone, a complete second-stage evolution structure appeared on the steel skull. As the spirit power storage device outputted, the Steel Skull evolved again, but this time it didn’t turn into a golden armor corpse, it became a steel warrior of the same level.

Upon seeing Bai Qi’s proficient operation, those who had previously doubted him gradually dismissed their skepticism and instead began to recognize Bai Qi. This complex structure, even the teachers responsible for helping with evolution couldn’t draw it so smoothly. Perhaps second stage evolution was indeed Bai Qi’s creation.

“Now I already have an elite creature. Can 1 earn the resources needed for its further development?” Bai Qi asked.

Li Xin fell silent and didn’t continue to dispute.

Though Lord-level creatures were the core strength of a beast master, an elite creature had more than enough capability to earn some cultivation resources. At least at their current level, it was sufficient.

“I know many of you have Lord-level creatures and aren’t interested in elite ones, but you should know that most Beast Masters can’t train all their pets, and since there weren’t many choices at the beginning, many beast masters’ main pets aren’t their first ones.”

“If so, why would you fuss over the first pet? If you raise your pet with minimal costs and then earn enough resources, you are qualified to choose a stronger pet.”

As soon as Bai Qi said this, the crowd erupted in applause.

Whether it was Bai Qi’s performance in rune drawing or his distinctive explanation of beast mastery, it was refreshing for them. They started to forget that Bai Qi was a student and slowly began to regard him as a teacher.

I suppose I’ve managed to trick them…

Bai Qi looked at the sincerely convinced students and quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He was relieved that he was able to trick them. Now, teaching would be more relaxed in the future.

“But this still does not explain the combination of machinery and undead that you mentioned earlier, Sir Bai. Rune evolution merely references some thinking.”

Seeing himself becoming a clown, Li Xin gritted his teeth and brought back the question that Bai Qi had conveniently forgotten.

“You want to see the combination of the undead and machinery?”

Bai Qi looked helplessly at Li Xin. He had hoped to trick them into forgetting these things. It seemed that he couldn’t get away with it without some solid evidence. As for the teacher’s side, he would find a way to explain it later. “Schuck, come and assemble the Andulu Beast!”
