“What are you going to do?” Chen Ruoxue asked.
“I want to look for Jade and see if she can evolve with this wood attribute crystal of profound meaning. After these few months of accumulation, it’s very close to evolving and breaking through,” Su Bai said.
“Oh, I see! Wait for me; I want to see it evolve, too,” Chen Rouxue exclaimed.
“Okay, come with me.” He reached out to hold her hand and then took her to the living room.
In the living room, the cub was playing King of Glory, but its paws were too big now. Even if Purple Jade bought a large customized tablet, it would still be very inconvenient.
Su Bai watched for a while and saw its character get killed by five people over the tower.
“Howl! (ง°皿°)ง” It’s all your fault, Ah Bai. If you didn’t disturb me, I wouldn’t die! The cub raised its head in annoyance.
“…”
Did this have anything to do with him?
Su Bai wanted to cry without tears.
“If you want to evolve, just finish this game as soon as possible, or else forget it.”
Rolling his eyes, he shook the crystal of profound meaning in his hand and then took Chen Ruoxue to sit on the sofa beside him to chat and read.
“Howl?” Evolve? Did you just say evolve?
The cub slapped the tablet to the side and rushed over to him.
“Of course, but you should finish the game as soon as possible and come back. Don’t screw the other players.” He rubbed his pet’s head, hating those who suddenly hung up in games.
“Howl! (* ̄) ̄*)” Wait for me; it’ll be solved in a few minutes.
The cub happily perked up its ears and returned to start its refined operation.
After a few minutes, it walked back to him dejectedly. In a five-player game, it was useless how good it was if the other four teammates kept screwing up.
“Hey, Jade, adjust your mood. It’s not conducive to breakthroughs if you’re feeling low.”
Chen Ruoxue took the energy medicinal cake from Su Bai and fed it to the cub, rubbing its head.
“Howl!”
The cub ate the medicinal cake dejectedly and slumped into her arms. It rubbed its head vigorously against her chest, almost deforming it.
Su Bai: “…”
He had reason to suspect that his pet was doing it on purpose.
After being comforted by Chen Ruoxue for a while, the cub finally returned to its senses and howled at him telepathically, Ah Bai, I want to evolve! I want to evolve!
“Alright, everything is prepared for you.”
He took out the prepared energy potion, which was to supplement the spiritual power to catalyze and guide the role at home.
The most important thing was, of course, the crystal of profound meaning of wood, which was given by Chen Ruoxue. Although the cub had a deep understanding of the profound meaning of wood, it was still some distance away from the complete profound meaning of wood. This crystal of profound meaning could make up for the gap.
“Howl! Ψ( ̄∀ ̄)Ψ”
Upon smelling the fragrant potion, the cub opened its mouth eagerly and waited for him to feed it.
He opened the potion bottle and poured all the content into its mouth, which it gulped down in one shot.
“Come on; swallow this, too.”
He popped the crystal of profound meaning of wood into its mouth.
The cub’s throat moved and it swallowed it in one mouthful. Soon, the rich potion and the crystal of profound meaning came into play. Spiritual power exuded from the cub, and its aura steadily improved.
Slowly, it closed its eyes and it felt the profound meaning of wood contained in the crystal.
“It seems like its evolution is steady.” Chen Ruoxue took Su Bai to the side and whispered this.
“It should be. It’s not far from an evolution and breakthrough.” He nodded.
“By the way, what is the cub’s next evolution?” she asked.
“It’s Limitless Beauty,” he replied.
“A humanoid spirit?”
She gripped his hand tighter and smiled slightly, looking up at her with big eyes.
“Don’t get me wrong; you know that it’s a mutant pet. I don’t know what it’ll look like when it evolves into a Limitless Beauty, and it’s a humanoid spirit, too. I won’t do anything perverted; believe me.” Su Bai shrugged.
When he chose the Queen of Thorns’ crystal nucleus, he just wanted to have a beautiful spirit and had not given it much thought.
It was just like how every Pokémon player wanted a beautiful Gardevoir.

Most of the humanoid spirits were also part human, usually in the first half. The Queen of Thorns was similar to the human female in the upper part, and the lower part was completely composed of countless thorns.

“I never said anything about not believing you, so don’t be scared. Humanoid spirits aren’t rare.” Chen Ruoxue could not help but laugh.
“I’m afraid that you’ll think of me as a pervert.” He shrugged.
While they were conversing, the cub had already undergone a complete evolution. Countless green rays surged and turned into a huge green light pupa, which exuded bursts of incomparable life fluctuations, absorbing all the wood aura in the sky and earth.
This situation lasted for about half an hour before the vision disappeared and everything returned to normal.
The cub finally revealed what it had evolved into, which was the appearance of a Limitless Beauty.
“This…” Su Bai was shocked.
Chen Ruoxue was also shocked.
The real form of the Limitless Beauty was too unexpected.
Its form was almost 80% human. In fact, it was almost indistinguishable from a female human from the upper body, except that its two lower legs from knee down were composed of rotating green vines.
On the whole, it had long golden hair which draped over its shoulders, a green wreath on top of its head, and a set of leaf-like green grass skirt covering only the key parts. On the other hand, its willowy waist, fair and fragrant shoulders, and slender arms were all exposed.
Its ears were pointy, exactly like that of elf ears, with a pair of purple pupils on a nearly perfect face. This Limitless Beauty was just like a real elf.
In addition, its original horn pendant had changed again and turned into a dark green staff.
Coupled with the strong breath of life emanating from its body, people could help but feel drawn to it.
Ah Bai, Ah Bai, I’ve become a human, too! Purple Jade’s spiritual voice sounded in his mind.
It danced about and waved to him before carefully examining its current appearance.
It first reached out and touched its puffed chest before curiously lifting its grass skirt to take a look.
“No, Jade, girls can’t do that.”
Chen Ruoxue hurried over to stop the Limitless Beauty. It did not matter what it did as a pet, but it was too shameful to behave like that as a human.
“Howl?” The elf-like pet looked at her suspiciously. Although it had turned into a human form, it still could not speak.
“Girls can’t make these indecent actions casually.” She held its hand and explained.
While Chen Ruoxue was explaining more stuff to it, Su Bai quickly checked his pet’s information.
After reading it, he took a deep breath. This was just a form of the Limitless Beauty and it could transform back into its previous form, the Sanctuary Wood Spirit.
In addition, following its evolution, the Limitless Beauty gained a new skill called the Forest Cluster, which could turn other plants into puppets. The older the year, the stronger the power of plants with better spiritual power when turned into puppets.
“Howl! (╯▽╰)” Ah Bai, do you not like my appearance?
Upon sensing his mood, it howled sadly. It had always harbored great expectations for its evolution into the Limitless Beauty, but its master did not seem happy at all after it finally succeeded.
“No, I don’t dislike it. It’s just that the changes are too drastic; I haven’t had time to get used to your new appearance.” Su Bai quickly responded with a smile.
“Don’t worry. He really likes your current appearance.” Chen Ruoxue promised.
“Yes, you’re much stronger than before; how could I not like it?” He walked over and chuckled.
“But since you have become a humanoid pet, you can try learning to speak or something.”
The bad part of the elf’s appearance was that he could caress it anymore, but it had indeed become more pleasing to the eye. Thus, there were both gains and losses.
Fortunately, he could still play with the fox when he wanted to caress a furry friend.
Truth be told, he really did not have any perverted thoughts. Not to mention that he already had Chen Ruoxue as his girlfriend, even if he did not, he still would not have naughty thoughts and only treat Purple Jade as a pet or a daughter.
Many people had the same feeling toward their pets.
Upon hearing this, the elf immediately cheered up. It hugged and caressed him, wanting to reach out to kiss him.
“No, you can’t kiss me. Men and women can’t kiss randomly!” Su Bai stopped his pet.
I’m not a human being; I’m a pet. The elf hugged and kissed him carelessly, even wanting to lick his cheek.
It was so terrifyingly strong that he could not get rid of it at all.
Chen Ruoxue was also speechless. She could not even get angry with a pet. Pets did not have the ethical concepts of human beings and could rub and lick people affectionately.
“I’ll come teach her what girls should pay more attention to; we can learn along the way,” she said.
“No problem. I wanted to ask you for this long ago, and it just so happens that it has to practice its fighting skills after changing form.” Su Bai nodded quickly.
He was very glad that only Purple Jade had a humanoid form among his pets, or else it would really be a headache.
“Howl!” Thank you! The elf happily hugged and kissed the girl before licking her cheek again.
Chen Rouxue was speechless.
More than ten days passed in this way, and in the end Chen Ruoxue gave up the idea of completely cultivating the elf into adulthood, but at least it was much better than before and was not doing some indecent actions in public.
The two also understood that, although it was in humanoid form, it was still a pet by nature in habits, physical fitness, et cetera. It was not appropriate to treat it as a human being.
It did not understand the messy feelings of humans at all. Its feelings for Su Bai were similar to a child’s dependence on their parents. It was pure and uncomplicated.
Thus, gradually, the two did not have such high demands on it. They usually let it hug and kiss them.
Time passed by, and it was already June in the blink of an eye. The elf steadily moved toward the high-level commander after its evolution.
The dragon was approaching the monarch grade and seemed to be able to break through at any time.
The dino was also advancing toward the high-level commander but still had no evolutionary trend for the time being.
Under the guidance of the Twelve-tailed Magic Fox and Su Bai’s generous douses of potions, the baby fox succeeded in evolving into the Alluring Spirit Fox Queen. Its body size had grown slightly to the size of an adult husky, and it seemed to have evolved from the original three tails to six tails due to the influence of the Twelve-tailed Magic Fox. Looking at its evolution trend, it seemed likely to evolve into nine tails.
Although it was still a warlord pet, its strength was not weak, especially with its intelligence and the teaching of the Twelve-tailed magic Fox. Hence, its strength had indeed improved very quickly.
As for the phoenix, it still maintained its vigilance toward the world and worked hard all the time. Every time after taking its potion, it would return to its little nest and try to spit out aura. At night, it insisted on sneaking out to exercise itself. Its strength improved quietly, and it could even surpass Purple Jade if given some time.
Its talent was already terrifying, but it still continued working hard day and night.
Su Bai himself did not stop training, either, and continued working hard in preparation for the college entrance examination.
What surprised him the most was Chen Ruoxue. She currently had four pets. In addition to Super Big Demon, the Thousand-face Fox Qiu Qiu, and the Ice Dragon he had given her, she also had a dragon pet, the Black Flame Dragon. This pet was a gift from her master, Wei Ya.
Although the Ice Dragon and the Black Flame Dragon were not strong yet, she still had a bright future with such a royal lineup.
Of course, if compared to his, her pets were much inferior.
June 5, Fourth Middle School.
Wang Wenyi stood on the podium and looked at the group of students she had been teaching for three years. At this time, they had already gotten rid of their immaturity and confusion and had become mature students from their ignorant selves.
“Okay, the class meeting is over; you can disband and go home. Pack your things and report to school tomorrow morning before heading to the hotel for the written test on the seventh and the eighth.
“This is also our last class meeting. I wish you a bright future and to soar like the rising sun.”
In the end, Wang Wenyi announced all this sadly.
For a while, everyone in the class was silent. The students, who were anxious to leave and those who were sick of school, also sat in their seats and remained silent.
With the dismissal of the class teacher, they realized that their youth was over and the best high school time was also over.
Satisfied or dissatisfied, fulfilled or wasted, melancholy or hesitant—what should be finished was over once and for all.
Be it while crying or laughing, time was like torrents of water and could not be turned back once it passed. Everything in the past three years had come to an end, and all that had happened were simply small memories stored in their minds forever.
1
Su Bai looked at the person next to him and gently took her hand. This time, he had no regrets. He had won everything he wanted through unremitting efforts and cheating via prior experience.
It was different from the time he remembered when he lowered his head in frustration, with his heart full of regret. This time, he raised his head with a smile on his lips.
Chen Ruoxue looked at him and held his hand tightly with a sweet smile on her mouth, too.
She did not have any regrets in these past three years.
“What are you going to do?” Chen Ruoxue asked.
“I want to look for Jade and see if she can evolve with this wood attribute crystal of profound meaning. After these few months of accumulation, it’s very close to evolving and breaking through,” Su Bai said.
