"What other ways are there to obtain a spot in the Energy Pool?" Billet asked casually, more out of boredom.

"Sorry, I’m not entirely sure," the staff member responded respectfully. "The method changes every year."

Billet took a small sip of the coffee that had just been served and remarked,

"I heard that your Energy Pool doesn’t allow King-level Pet Beasts to enter?"

The staff member replied warmly, "That was last year’s rule. This year, the Energy Pool’s reserves are sufficient, and King-level Pet Beasts can absorb enough energy to advance by a small stage."

A "small stage" refers to advancing from the early stages to the mid stages, or from the mid stages to the late stages.

Allowing King-level Pet Beasts to advance by a small stage without side effects indicated that this year’s Energy Pool had significantly higher energy reserves compared to the previous year.

More energy was undoubtedly a good thing. More Bing’ai Palu absorbing energy meant faster progress... Billet thought as he took another sip of coffee.

"Sir, are you not planning to try this project?" the staff member asked.

Billet set the coffee cup down, "Is it free for me?"

"Only those with an Honor Ring can access the project free of charge," the staff member answered tactfully.

"Then I’d rather not try it," Billet said calmly.

The staff member: "..."

...

Within the Barrier.

Inside the Energy Pool.

Lubao gradually felt bewildered.

It remembered its Beast Tamer saying that absorbing this energy should feel comfortable, with no side effects. Only when the body’s current energy limit was exceeded and forced absorption occurred would there be pain.

Even Xun Xun had opened up the computer, searched up information, and explained that staying inside longer was an indication of greater talent.

If Lubao felt pain this fast, did it mean its talent was not very high...

"Bing’ai!"

The sharp pain jolted Lubao out of its thoughts.

The blue gemstone on its forehead radiated a light, allowing it a brief moment to collect itself and think again.

If it returned now, wouldn’t its Beast Tamer be disappointed...

"Bing’ai!!!"

At this thought, Lubao’s gaze turned sharp, its expression resolute.

It let out a roar.

In an instant, the previously calm Energy Pool churned into a vortex, spinning wildly.

At the vortex’s center, Lubao endured a sensation as if its body was being torn apart.

At the same time, the Immutable Stone hanging around its neck emitted an intense white light.

"Chirp chirp!"

Air currents surged, creating gusts of Wild Wind. Qiao Sang was blown off the branch she was perched on.

Her reflexes were swift—she quickly grabbed hold of a passing green leaf with her wings and claws.

But the next moment, the branch holding the leaf cracked under the pressure of the wind, and Qiao Sang was sent tumbling down again.

Fortunately, the dense forest and thick vegetation provided some cushioning.

Qiao Sang fell from one tree to another, and finally landed in a shrubbery, the successive impacts reducing the pain.

Once everything calmed down, Qiao Sang found herself at the edge of a bush, only about ten meters away from the Energy Pool.

Her first instinct was to look in Lubao’s direction, and instantly, her pupils contracted.

The first thought that came to Qiao Sang’s mind was: "From this distance and angle, Lubao looks enormous!"

The second thought was: "Holy crap, the Immutable Stone is glowing?!"

The Immutable Stone was known for suppressing Pet Beasts’ evolution. When Beast Tamers wanted to further train their Pet Beasts in their current stage, unlock their hidden potential, or guide their evolution along a planned route rather than allowing an energy-based evolution, they would equip the Immutable Stone on their beasts.

When the Immutable Stone glowed and activated, it indicated the energy inside the Pet Beast had reached the level necessary for evolution!

Lubao’s energy had already reached an evolutionary threshold?!

In that moment, Qiao Sang’s mind was a chaotic blank.
