Chapter 5 Survival of the Fittest

"Look at those two little guys. They became friends in just a few minutes."

The women who were chatting suddenly pointed at the sofa in the distance and started laughing.

Zhao Yuwei and Xu Ping looked over and found Chu Yi and Lin Siyao sitting side by side.

Chu Yi lowered his head and read the book with full concentration.

Lin Siyao also lowered his head and read along, occasionally reaching out to help him turn the pages.

"Weiwei, do you think it looks like when we were little?"

Xu Ping looked at the two little ones, a hint of reminiscence emerging in her eyes.

"Come on, we were never this harmonious when we were kids. We always quarreled when we met."

Zhao Yuwei curled her lips and began to complain about how spoiled Xu Ping was when she was a child and how she was unwilling to even share a doll.

Xu Ping immediately retorted, saying that Zhao Yuwei had been like a tigress since she was a child, who would just grab whatever she liked and never discussed it with others.

The two good friends who had known each other for decades now exposed each other's shortcomings, and the old sisters' tea party was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.

On the sofa, Chu Yi and Lin Siyao's relationship was not as harmonious as it seemed.

"You're too slow. I've already finished reading it."

As he spoke, Lin Siyao reached out and turned another page of the book.

"Are you watching so fast?"

Chu Yi widened his eyes and began to doubt his life.

After all, he was a college student in his previous life, but his reading speed is not even as fast as a five-year-old girl. Are all the child prodigies in this world at this level?

"No, I've read these chapters before."

Lin Siyao shook his little head and answered with an innocent look in his eyes.

"Just say it earlier." Chu Yi rolled his eyes immediately.

Then he turned directly to the second half of the book and began to read the chapter "Summary of Common High-level Pets".

The pets that appear in this chapter are at least legendary or above.

Chu Yi looked at them for a while and found that these pets did not have many special features in appearance. There were all kinds of them, some handsome and some ugly.

However, in terms of attributes, he did find a common point, that is, these high-level pets all have at least one golden talent.

In this world, all objects with awakened superpowers have talents, which can be understood as special abilities granted by superpowers.

For example, earth-type pets evolved from mud and stone have the most common talent [Solid as a Rock], which allows them to gain defense far exceeding that of other pets.

In addition, talents are not static. Like pets, talents can also evolve.

[Solid as a Rock] is the most common talent in the Stone Element, but if it evolves to its ultimate form, it will become a golden talent known as the best in the world in physical defense - [Diamond]!
A pet with this talent will turn into diamond all over once it enters the [Diamond] state. Combined with the generally large size of earth-type pets, one can imagine how amazing its defense will be.

However, if low-level pets want to evolve into high-level talents, in addition to training with all their might, they also need to be supplemented with a large amount of evolutionary materials.

Simply put, you have to work hard, spend money, and sometimes rely on luck.

If it is a high-level pet, then they are likely to directly obtain high-level talents when they are born, without any effort. This is just like luxury cars such as Ferrari and Lamborghini. Some people are born without them, so no matter how hard they work in this life, they probably won't be able to own them.

It may sound cruel, but it is all determined by bloodline. The offspring of emperor-level pets are stronger than the offspring of ordinary-level pets.

Of course, it is not impossible for ordinary pets to evolve into emperor-level ones, but it requires a huge opportunity.

Such opportunities have only occurred a few times throughout the history of beast taming, and the probability is really too low.

Thinking of this, Chu Yi's chest seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't say anything. There was only one thought in his mind: Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers born with different species?
It seems that in this world, kings, princes, generals and ministers do have certain qualities.

Of course, this is limited to pets.

"Read a total of 100,000 words and achieve the achievement [Read 10,000 Books]!
Congratulations to the host, you have gained Spirit +3, Free Attribute +1, and a random talent draw.

Because the host is currently in the novice protection period, this random draw will be changed to a big guarantee mode, and a golden talent will definitely appear! "

The system's prompt sounds rang one after another. When Chu Yi heard the last sentence, he almost jumped up in excitement.

The novice protection period is okay, is this a benefit for newbies?

Will there be a 3rd anniversary celebration, 4th anniversary celebration, etc.? It would be so cool if I could do this every birthday.

Wait a minute, the system just said that this draw will be changed to a big guaranteed mode. In other words, under normal circumstances, how many draws do you need to accumulate to get the big guaranteed?

What is the upper limit of this number?

What if it takes 90 or 180 draws to get the guaranteed result? Doesn’t that mean all the draws before that will only yield some scraps?

Shit, I was almost fooled by this sudden benefit. If you think about it carefully, this lottery system is really a scam.

Oh, never mind, let’s drink while we can. I’ll use up the big guaranteed bonus on hand first and see what kind of golden talent I can get. Let’s start drawing!
As the command was issued, the system panel suddenly went dark, and then a golden meteor fell from the sky and landed in front of Chu Yi.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the golden talent [Survival of the Fittest]!"

Survival of the Fittest Introduction:
Exclusively for beastmasters, every time the host's contracted pet is upgraded, it may mutate. The mutation effects include: additional attribute points, innate skills that cannot be obtained by this system, and rare evolutionary forms. "

Damn, this is simply a magical skill!
What does a pet of ordinary bloodline rely on to turn things around? Isn't it mutation?

Atavistic mutation, technological mutation, mythological mutation, as long as you encounter one of them, you can turn your life around.

Theoretically, every pet may mutate during its evolution.

However, the evolution nodes of pets are usually at levels 20-40-60. Most pets with weak bloodlines only have two or three opportunities to mutate in their lifetime.

But with [Survival of the Fittest], the three chances are instantly multiplied by twenty, and the probability of mutation also becomes higher.

This is a huge blessing for him who has no way to obtain a high-level bloodline pet!

"I can't wait to start training my pet."

Chu Yi exited the system interface, with a blazing fire of cultivation burning in his eyes.

What bullshit noble bloodline? Just wait and see how I can train the most ordinary mortals into emperors capable of standing on the top of the world!
As if sensing Chu Yi's sudden fierce aura, Lin Siyao beside him looked over curiously.

The head is tilted, so cute.

This is not a good thing to raise!
Chu Yi's heart skipped a beat and he quickly reminded himself loudly.
