"Would you like to consume?"

Feeling the feedback from the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas, Su Ping’s expression grew slightly focused.

Su Ping blinked.

Therefore, without much hesitation, as soon as the prompt from the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas appeared, he chose to confirm.

Qin Xiaoxue watched Su Ping intently stare at the parchment without saying a word, not daring to interrupt. However, when Su Ping actually closed his eyes a short while later, she was somewhat baffled.

In some stories, anime, and films, there are cases of Pet Beasts having sudden enlightenments during battle or gaining insights from studying Skills manuals.

Qin Xiaoxue didn’t understand. Still, she refrained from interrupting and waited quietly.

Before long, Su Ping opened his eyes.

Qin Xiaoxue quickly asked, "How is it? Any discoveries? Do you have any other ideas about Woodhead’s evolution?"

And yet, to this simple attempt to make conversation, the darn kid in front of her met her gaze and actually nodded.

"Indeed there are some! The evolution of the Crown Wolf Emperor does have some hidden issues!"

"Ah? Oh... Oh, then tell me."

Qin Xiaoxue looked at Su Ping, her face filled with confusion.

Su Ping didn’t seem to mind Miss Qin’s usual eccentricities and nodded, pointing to the third and fourth stages of the evolution on the parchment.

"If I’m not mistaken, aside from strengthening the absolute control over natural forest power, one of the Crown Wolf Emperor’s core evolutionary Skills should manifest after this stage—something akin to a Clone Skill, right?"

This much was undeniable. Qin Xiaoxue nodded. Since they were planning this evolution for Woodhead, she naturally had a good understanding of such Pet Beasts. Not only did she understand, she had even seen the true form of this evolutionary body with her own eyes. Although the Crown Wolf Emperor’s evolutionary body was rare, procuring a lively one wasn’t difficult for someone of Sang Sheng’s status.

Naturally, Qin Xiaoxue knew that the Crown Wolf Emperor possessed a Clone Skill. Moreover, that Clone Skill was indeed one of the Crown Wolf Emperor’s most wondrous Skills. However, thinking about that Skill’s Ability, Qin Xiaoxue’s mouth twitched slightly, as if she recalled something amusing.

She nodded.

Qin Xiaoxue also wanted to see what Su Ping had discerned in just this short period.

And sure enough, what he said next genuinely took Qin Xiaoxue completely by surprise.

"From my perspective, the Crown Wolf Emperor’s clone originates from a basic projection Ability. However, the true clone shouldn’t be a mere projection. Nourished by the Seed of Life, the solidified clone should be able to temporarily form a true flesh-and-blood copy of the Crown Wolf Emperor.

No, calling it flesh and blood might be an exaggeration. The growth of a Wood Element Pet Beast likely involves substituting plant fibers for a body. After undergoing changes from the Thorny Crown and Natural Essence, its body would also develop in a woody direction.

So, the Crown Wolf Emperor’s clone is somewhat like a wood clone, then? Controllable, possessing most of the original’s Abilities, and having extremely strong combat power—perhaps even indistinguishable from the main body?"

As soon as he said this, Qin Xiaoxue was truly shocked. Her eyes widened as she stared at Su Ping in astonishment.

"Have you looked up information on the Crown Wolf Emperor before?"

Su Ping shook his head.

"Then tell me, what’s wrong with the Crown Wolf Emperor?"
