After searching for nearly an hour, Ye Fei gradually began to feel that his legs were getting heavier and heavier as if they were filled with lead.

However, the number of pet eggs that he had checked through was less than one-twentieth of the total number.

“No… if I continue to search row by row, I won’t be able to find them even if I break my legs.”

“I can’t spend all my time here. I have to think of a way to increase my efficiency…”

Ye Fei closed his eyes and stopped looking at the specific information about the pet eggs. Instead, he expanded the range of the voice of the heart skill to the limit to find the most promising pet within this range and listen to its voice.

With Ye Fei’s current level of the voice of the heart skill, he could effectively listen to a range of up to ten meters.

The complicated voice of the pets flooded into his mind like a tide. Then, under Ye Fei’s control, it quickly faded away, leaving only one voice.

It was the voice of the pet with the best comprehensive attributes within a 10-meter radius.

It was a killer whale.

The voice exclaimed, “I am the overlord of the ocean!”

Ye Fei carefully checked its specific attributes and skills. He hesitated for a moment, placed the pet egg back in its original position, and continued to search.

After changing his position, Ye Fei once again used the voice of his heart skill to search the area.

This time, he found a unicorn.

Ye Fei briefly checked its attributes and gave up. He continued to search.

..

Give up.

..

Give up.

..

Give up.

..

Ye Fei did not even know how many pet eggs he had given up.

He mechanically repeated this cycle of searching, giving up, giving up, and searching again.

When he sensed it, his mind was suddenly sucked in by a scalding force!

That force was abnormally overbearing. Anything that got close to it would be forcefully absorbed and burned!

“Interesting… I have to go and see what it is!”

Ye Fei followed the direction of his senses and jogged all the way. Finally, he saw the overbearing and tyrannical pet egg.

Its entire body was fiery red, and the shell of the egg was slightly transparent. One could vaguely see that there was a flame burning inside.

The entire pet egg was continuously releasing a flame aura, burning everything in its surroundings!

In this incubator, every place was filled with rich spiritual energy.

Except for the surroundings of this pet egg!

That was because the spiritual energy around it was all burned away by the flame aura it released!

Not to mention the spiritual energy, there wasn’t even any ordinary air around it.

There was only a vacuum!

Ye Fei couldn’t help but be amazed.

“Just in the state of a pet egg, it can release such a powerful force… it’s really unheard of!”

“When it hatches in the future, how strong will it be?”

“What will it look like when it fully grows up?”

Even just imagining it, Ye Fei felt extremely excited.

He could not wait to look at the detailed information about this pet egg.

[ Species: Firebird (Descendant of the Phoenix)]

[ Attributes: Fire. ]

[ Level: Four-star silver. ]

[ Potential: SSS-tier. ]

[ Skills: Phoenix True Fire: Damage type skill, to be unlocked (control type skill, to be unlocked); hundred birds worshipping Phoenixenix (summon type skill, to be unlockedPhoenixeNirvanavana (special skill, to be unlocked) … ]

The skill pane was all gray, and the status bar at the back was filled with the words “To be unlocked”.

“Could it be that all of them are to be unlocked, and not a single one is available?”

Ye Fei muttered to himself, not giving up as he continued to scroll down.

Finally, after a long string of gray skill names, there was finally a skill that was not gray.

[ Flame-spitting: Spits out flames to burn the enemy, causing a large amount of damage, with a burning effect (damage type skill, can be leveled up). ]

“Oh my God… Finally, there’s a skill that can be used immediately!” Ye Fei could not help but sigh.

When he took a closer look, there was a line of small words at the bottom of the skill list —

[ Remark: All skills that need to be unlocked can only be unlocked after the Phoenix bloodline is awakened. ]

Ye Fei immediately became alert.

“It can also awaken the Phoenix Bloodline?”

“Doesn’t that mean that this little firebird can grow into a phoenix in the future?!”

“No wonder its potential level is SSS!”

Ye Fei could not help but hug the firebird pet egg and kiss it. He said excitedly, “It’s you!”

Then, he decisively bit his index finger, squeezed out a drop of blood, and dripped it on the Firebird Pet Egg.

Unlike those pets that had already hatched and had self-awareness, pets that were still in the egg only needed to drip blood to sign a contract without the pet’s consent.

This was also why so many trainers were willing to bet on a pet egg like opening a blind box.

After all, it was not an easy thing to make a pet beast that had already developed self-awareness sign a contract voluntarily.

In comparison, as long as the pet egg dripped blood, it could recognize its master. It was simple and convenient.

Therefore, even if the pet egg was filled with uncertainty, the trainers were willing to gamble.

As Ye Fei’s blood gradually seeped into the eggshell, the entire pet egg began to shake violently!

“Ka-”

“Ka-ka-ka-”

Following a series of small crisp sounds, cracks appeared on the eggshell.

Within the cracks, billowing flames emerged!

It was extremely hot!

Even Ye Fei’s body, which had been strengthened by the body tempering pill, felt a little hot and unbearable at this moment.

He had no choice but to let go.

The Firebird Pet Egg floated in the air, and the cracks continued to expand. Flames continued to seep out, and the temperature in the surroundings became higher and higher!

The principal in the distance noticed the abnormal movements here and immediately rushed over.

When he saw the scene in front of him, he was instantly stunned.

“This… This is the pet egg that you picked?”

Without waiting for Ye Fei’s reply, the principal grabbed the tag and looked at it.

“Firebird, an ordinary fire-type pet… this shouldn’t be! How could an ordinary fire-type pet burst out with such power?!”

Ye Fei could only play dumb. “I don’t know either… just now, I felt that this egg was very beautiful and wanted it very much, so I just dripped blood on it and signed the contract.”

“I didn’t expect that after signing the contract, it would become like this…”

The principal excitedly patted Ye Fei’s shoulder and shouted, “Student Ye Fei! You’ve struck treasure!!”

Although he was still unable to determine why the pet egg would have such an abnormal reaction, the principal was able to confirm that this pet egg was definitely not an ordinary item!

Ye Fei was really lucky to have chosen it!

Cracks continued to appear on the pet egg.

Finally, the Firebird inside pecked open the top of the eggshell!

The Little Firebird that had finally regained its freedom soared into the sky and let out a loud and clear cry.

That sound seemed to have a kind of power that could cleanse one’s heart. Even the principal felt that the pressure and worries in his heart were instantly swept away!
