At adulthood, they were already very close in size to purebred Giant Bloodfang Boars. According to the recorded data, the second-generation hybrid Giant Bloodfang Boars reached over eighty percent, nearly ninety percent, of a purebred's size when fully grown. There was little room for further improvement, so the boar breeding farm had decided to begin breeding for a stable strain. From now on, these would be the standard battle pets for the high elf rangers of the Steel Torrent.

In fact, breeding for a stable strain simply meant selecting males and females from the second generation whose traits met the requirements and breeding them together. This helped preserve desirable traits in their offspring while stabilizing their genes, making atavistic regression less likely. Only after many generations would they finally become a new, artificially bred variety.

Yu Lin Bloodhawk knew very well that creating a new breed was not something that could be accomplished in a short time. It took years of sustained effort. The second-generation boars currently produced by the Giant Bloodfang Boar breeding farm in the Hinterlands were still genetically unstable. These giant hybrid Bloodfang Boars could grow to the specified size themselves, but because their genes had yet to stabilize, meeting the standards in this generation did not guarantee that their offspring would. It was perfectly normal for their descendants to revert to the size of Common Boars.

In the terminology of his old home on Earth, these were commercial pigs, suitable for use in a single generation but not for breeding stock. Still, Yu Lin Bloodhawk believed they were already good enough to equip the army. As for when their genes would stabilize and produce a new, artificially developed breed, that would require the boar breeding farm to keep at it for years, until genetic stability was
