Huo Xian’er brushed her hair back, pondering seriously about what she should talk about with Ye Ling.
After thinking for a while, Huo Xian’er finally asked her first question.
“By the way, let’s start with this: how did your spiritual pet suddenly become so strong? And… it doesn’t look like a zombie at all?”
Ever since she met Ye Ling at the Bone Burial Mound, Huo Xian’er had been curious about Blood Phantom’s situation.
It was completely different from the zombies in the rumors.
In Huo Xian’er’s impression, zombies were usually terrifying creatures with hideous faces, fangs, and claws.
But Blood Phantom didn’t seem to be scary at all.
Although Blood Phantom did use claws and showed fangs during the battle, it didn’t mean she was a zombie.
Ye Ling didn’t find Huo Xian’er’s question strange at all.
Anyone seeing Blood Phantom for the first time might be curious about what kind of spiritual pet she was.
Moreover, Huo Xian’er knew that Ye Ling’s spiritual pet was supposed to be a zombie.
“Blood Phantom is a zombie, but she’s different from common zombies. She’s quite special.”
Ye Ling stopped there, not saying more.
Some things are better left unsaid.
Blood Phantom was indeed a genuine zombie. If it weren’t for the system, Ye Ling wouldn’t know how to help her evolve.
Ye Ling had no intention of telling anyone about this, nor did he want to.
A zombie that couldn’t evolve suddenly being able to evolve could potentially alarm the entire Federation.
Although it might not necessarily trouble Ye Ling, his life would certainly be far from peaceful.
Therefore, Ye Ling attributed Blood Phantom’s uniqueness to her being different from common zombies.
In the Federation, demons or spiritual pets had a certain probability of mutating, becoming special beings within their species.
However, such special beings were extremely rare.
But almost every mutation in demons and spiritual pets made them stronger.
So, most people in the Federation envied those with mutated spiritual pets.
Mutated spiritual pets were exceedingly rare and had immense potential.
Unfortunately, these mutated spiritual pets could never be artificially bred or created.
“A mutated zombie?”
Hearing Ye Ling’s explanation, Huo Xian’er was shocked and secretly speculated.
If Blood Phantom was indeed a mutated spiritual pet as Ye Ling said, then Ye Ling was destined to become very powerful in the future.
Given enough time, he would undoubtedly become a formidable force, surpassing even Huo Xian’er’s father.
It’s worth noting that Huo Xian’er’s father was only a Sixth Rank Spirit Tamer, which was quite strong in a place like Skyshine City.
But in the entire Federation, it was almost nothing.
This was inevitable, as remote places had fewer resources.
With a hint of envy in her eyes, Huo Xian’er realized that she had underestimated Ye Ling.
She hadn’t expected him to have a mutated spiritual pet.
“It seems… I still underestimated him.”
Looking at his slightly determined face, Huo Xian’er thought to herself.
Of course, Ye Ling didn’t say much, and Huo Xian’er didn’t press further.
Everyone has some secrets, and Huo Xian’er wasn’t the type to pry.
Being too inquisitive could easily make people dislike you.
At least for now, Huo Xian’er had a certain fondness for Ye Ling and didn’t want to be disliked by him.
So, she didn’t dwell on the question and moved on.
The sudden silence was the most awkward.
After answering the question, the atmosphere became quiet again.
Suddenly, Huo Xian’er’s eyes sparkled as she thought of another question.
“Ye Ling, with your strength, getting into a top Spirit Tamer Academy shouldn’t be a problem.
So… have you thought about which academy you want to choose?”
She was very curious about which top Spirit Tamer Academy Ye Ling would choose.
Strength was just the stepping stone, and Ye Ling clearly had it.
In fact, Ye Ling’s displayed strength far exceeded the expectations of those academy representatives.
Huo Xian’er could already imagine that those top Spirit Tamer Academy representatives would never give up on a genius like Ye Ling.
What she didn’t know was that Ye Ling had shown even greater strength, being able to use Second Rank Spiritual Power Chains with ease.
Just for that, those Spirit Tamer Academies would go crazy to recruit him.
As long as Ye Ling performed normally in the second phase of the assessment, the final result would be certain.
