Chapter 311: The Freshman Challenge Tournament
Chapter 311: The Freshman Challenge Tournament
After setting up the research task, Li Qian didn't waste any more time. That very evening, he accessed the virtual library of Shazhou Beast Mastery University through his VR glasses.
Unlike the physical library standing on campus, the virtual library was open 24 hours a day.
Undoubtedly, the virtual library was much more convenient for students to access books.
Of course, the virtual library also had its drawbacks.
Its biggest flaw was that some special books, such as artifacts brought from deeper dimensional planes, couldn't be scanned into the system.
Li Qian entered the virtual library, inputted his student ID number, and verified his identity with a retinal scan. He then checked his library access level.
"Level Six." After seeing his library access level, Li Qian was slightly surprised.
According to his understanding, the highest library level in Shazhou Beast Mastery University was Level Nine.
As a first-year freshman who had just entered the school, being granted Level Six access showed the importance they placed on him.
Reflecting on this, it made sense. After all, they had gone to great lengths to recruit him from Jiangsu Province.
It would be strange if they didn't value him.
Li Qian browsed through the books related to one-tail cat research and found that there were quite a few available.
This also indicated the uniqueness of one-tail cats and the popularity of research in this area, likely attracting the attention of many breeders.
After duplicating the books, Li Qian checked the time and realized it was quite late. He decided not to read them right away.
After a quick shower, he went to bed.
The next morning, after a quick breakfast, Li Qian headed to a training room in the training building of the Breeding College.
The training building was open to students and contained a large number of small training rooms for their use.
After all, summoning companion beasts was prohibited on campus under normal circumstances.
Li Qian understood this rule; if students could freely summon their companion beasts, the school's order would quickly descend into chaos.
It would also be unsafe for students to live and study on campus.
The training building of the Breeding College appeared to be a single building, but inside, intricate spatial array formations were set up.
Before entering, the training room looked ordinary, probably around thirty square meters. However, upon stepping inside, Li Qian was astonished.
As he opened the door to the training room, a square plot of land with sides approximately one hundred meters long was revealed.
The plot was surrounded by earth walls with intricate runes on them.
These runes were likely part of the formation maintaining the special space.

This was the training room Li Qian had chosen.
After entering the room, he took out the Beast Sphere containing the mutated three-tailed cat, now a four-tailed cat, which he had obtained from Senior Adu the day before.
A flash of red light appeared, and the four-tailed cat was released.
The cat immediately let out an angry howl, its expression fierce.
Li Qian observed that it was not in good condition, having sustained significant injuries. However, this was normal; if it hadn't been injured, a small Beast Sphere wouldn't have been able to contain it.
The cat bared its teeth and glared at Li Qian, ready to attack at any moment.
It seemed wild and untamed.
Li Qian smiled at this, unconcerned. He muttered to himself, "Oh, quite rebellious. But it's normal to be a bit temperamental after being captured for no reason."
Just as the four-tailed cat was about to pounce, Li Qian casually gestured, sliding his finger forward. Suddenly, the summoning array lit up.
"Seven Sons, bring out my Research Beast." As the summoning array lit up, Seven Sons appeared promptly. Li Qian gave him a brief instruction.
After the instruction, Li Qian turned around, leisurely taking out a bottle of drink from his spatial necklace and started sipping, looking unconcerned.
"Meow, meow, meow..."
"Roar, roar, roar..."
Just as Li Qian turned, behind him, a loud series of roars from Seven Sons and pitiful screams from the Four-Tailed Cat suddenly rang out.
About ten minutes later.
Li Qian turned back, and the scene before him was completely different.
The Four-Tailed Cat was bowing and nodding, lying on the ground. It looked at Li Qian with a mix of fear and reverence in its eyes.
Seeing this, Li Qian shook his head slightly. It seemed that the so-called wild and untamed nature also varied among beasts.
At least, the Four-Tailed Cat before him appeared to have lost some of its stubbornness.
After being disciplined by Seven Sons, it immediately became obedient.
Li Qian walked over and fed the Four-Tailed Cat a healing Companion Beast potion, then started pacing and observing.
During this time, Li Qian acted like a photographer, constantly giving instructions and observing, while the Four-Tailed Cat obeyed his commands and posed in various positions like a model.
This scene looked a bit bizarre.
The Four-Tailed Cat was different from an ordinary house cat. As an extraordinary creature, its size was significantly larger than a typical house cat. Aside from the difference in fur color, calling it a tiger wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Its four tails stood upright, swaying constantly, and its gem-like blue eyes gave off a mysterious aura.
"Slowly, one step at a time, no need to rush." After observing for a while without any leads, Li Qian sat down, continuing to observe while taking out his VR goggles and browsing through the books he had collected the night before.
"Let's look at the evolution method from One-Tail to Two-Tail Cat... As long as the racial potential limit is reached, evolution can be triggered." As Li Qian read the book's description, he pondered, "As long as the racial potential limit is reached, evolution can begin."
Evolution from Two-Tail to Three-Tail Cat was equally simple.
Apart from reaching the racial potential limit, it involved training a racial skill, Telekinesis, to the Mastery Level.
Li Qian guessed that it was probably because it had trained Telekinesis to the Mastery Level that, after evolving into a Three-Tailed Cat, the Psychic Attribute appeared in its attributes.
According to the knowledge he had gained from the books he had read so far, plus the information he had heard from Adu, from the Three-Tail stage onwards, up to the Seven-Tail stage, its attribute was solely Psychic.
As for whether the Eight-Tail and Nine-Tail stages were the same, the books didn't record it, and Adu didn't know either. Moreover, strictly speaking, whether it was the Eight-Tail or Nine-Tail stage, they were beyond what a regular breeder could achieve.
From Two-Tail to Three-Tail, and from Three-Tail to Four-Tail, Li Qian guessed that it was probably related to the skill Telekinesis, perhaps requiring a Beyond Limit Level.
Just as Li Qian was pondering, a digital prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Inspiration Points +5, current task progress 90%!]
Indeed, his thoughts were correct.
To evolve from a Three-Tail Cat to a Four-Tail Cat, the Telekinesis skill needed to be trained to the Beyond Limit Level.
Apart from Telekinesis at the Beyond Limit Level, there should be other conditions required.
There must be other conditions, but at the moment, Li Qian had no leads.
After thinking for a while, as noon approached, Li Qian didn't dwell on it. He directly recalled the Four-Tail Cat and left the training room.
When Li Qian returned to the dormitory and pushed open the door, he heard Lu Tianjiao's voice from the balcony.
"Li Qian, are you planning to sign up for the Freshman Challenge Tournament?"
