"That's great! Wonderful!" Long Yi said excitedly. Every evolution the Female Demon underwent meant she was becoming more perfect, which was undoubtedly a good thing.
"But... I need Crystal Cores to evolve..."
Crystal Cores?
Only then did Long Yi recall when Little Zi had ultra perfectly evolved because she had fully absorbed the Crystal Core that acted as her body!
"How many do you need?" Long Yi asked urgently.
"Considering there are now fourteen souls, including me, I guess I need at least fourteen Crystal Cores above level nine." Little Zi lowered her head shamefacedly.
"...."
Long Yi was suddenly at a loss. There weren't many Crystal Cores above level nine to begin with. The grand hunting mission of the Dragon Knight Academy hadn't yielded many. Now, Little Zi was asking for fourteen. Long Yi was willing to provide them, but the problem was, he simply didn't have them!
"We'll... figure something out later," was Long Yi's only response.
