Chapter 5

“Just as I expected!”

5

Ye Xuan’s eyes lit up when he saw Lil Wan’s attributes appear on the attribute panel .

Earlier, Ye Xuan had told Lil Wan that Beast Tamers could help beasts improve their star rating, and he wasn’t wrong on this .

However, getting a beast to raise its star rating usually didn’t happen overnight .

Only a few Beast Tamers whose special talents had awakened could quickly raise the star rating of a certain type of beast .

But for Ye Xuan, as long as the beast belonged to him, and as long as he had enough materials in his hands, he could edit it and improve its star rating .

Whether it was Ye Xuan’s Beast Editor or the talents of other Beast Tamers, it would only work on their own beasts .

A contracted beast couldn’t be transferred .

“Ancient Wood Elf!”

Ye Xuan swept through the evolution paths of the elves and finally set his sights on the evolution path of the Ancient Wood Elf .

Fewer materials were needed in the early stages of this evolution path, and the materials he had should be enough .

However, the later phases of this evolution path required much more .

“After I made a contract with Lil Wan and turned her into my beast, her Mind Energy increased, but she’s still not powerful . ”

When a beast became powerful, the owner would also become more powerful . Similarly, if the master was stronger than the beast, the beast would also grow at a faster rate .

This was especially the case during the time right after they had established a contract with each other .

Ye Xuan settled his gaze on Lil Wan and sensed her attributes with his mind .

He learned that Lil Wan’s combat effectiveness at this moment was still at zero .

“When I use the Beast Editor to edit her and make her a three-star Ancient Wood Elf, things will become different . ”

For a three-star Ancient Wood Elf, even at the Apprentice Level, it would possess a certain amount of combat effectiveness .

5

“Looks like selling the Energy Pills Ye Han gave me is the only option I have . ”

5

Ye Xuan took a deep breath .

If he wanted to edit Lil Wan, even if it was just to edit her into an Ancient Wood Elf, it would require a lot of money .

4

Thousand-year Core of the Ancient Wood, Dark Iron-Grade Vine Seed, and Dark Iron-Grade Tear of Life; these three treasures didn’t seem like they would be cheap .

Now, his only choice was to sell the Energy Pills that Ye Han had given him .

However, as long as Lil Wan’s star rating could improve, everything would be worth it .

After all, the path of Beast Taming was about striving to grow one’s own Spirit Ocean .

So that it could conjure higher-level Seed of Beasts .

1

But in this world, there were very few methods to cultivate one’s Spirit Ocean .

The only way for someone to strengthen their Spirit Ocean was to get power from their beasts through reverse nurturing . Either that, or enhance their own strength as a Warrior to indirectly enhance their Spirit Ocean .

2

Which would mean…

With Lil Wan’s improved star rating, she was now higher in grade and faster in her cultivation, which would mean that he would receive even more benefits via reverse nurturing .

“Let me check . How much do the materials to upgrade Lil Wan cost?”

Ye Xuan took out his phone, opened the online shopping mall, and started searching .

This era was the era of Warriors and the era of Beast Tamers .

Nevertheless, technology still existed .

What’s more, compared to a few centuries ago, the world was even more prosperous in some respects .

With a quick search, Ye Xuan saw that there were a large number of stores selling the three items in the online shopping mall .

“Eh?”

After reading the prices of the three treasures, Ye Xuan let out a soft cry of doubt .

It wasn’t because the three treasures were too expensive .

It was because these three treasures were unexpectedly cheap .

3

Among them, a drop of Dark Iron-Grade Tear of Life was mostly sold for 30,000 dollars in various shops .

8

Aside from that, the thousand-year Core of the Ancient Wood and Dark Iron-Grade Vine Seed were even cheaper .

3

The thousand-year Core of the Ancient Wood only cost about 3000 dollars .

2

As for the Dark Iron-Grade Vine Seed, even those higher in quality only cost 20,000 to 30,000 dollars .

2

In other words, he probably only needed to sell two to three Energy Pills to get enough money to upgrade Lil Wan .

If he were to sell all the Energy Pills, he might even be able to upgrade Lil Wan to a higher grade or purchase a good Apprentice-Level beast .

“Let’s go . ”

As he thought about all this, Ye Xuan put the Energy Pills into his pocket and directly went to the mall with Lil Wan .

“Hello, is there anything I can help you with?”

At the Blue Sky Consignment Mall in Yunhai City, a young lady in professional attire asked Ye Xuan this with a smile .

Ye Xuan was wearing white casual sportswear . With his handsome face, normally, wherever he went, he himself would become the beautiful scenery .

4

Naturally, whatever he had to take care of would be much easier if the person he was dealing with was of the opposite sex .

“I want to consign a few Energy Pills in your mall . I wonder what the procedures are?” Ye Xuan opened his mouth and asked .

Different eras have different styles .

In this era, every city had an abundance of consignment malls .

Warriors would hunt monsters outside the city and acquire all kinds of materials . If they couldn’t use the items themselves, most of them would opt to sell their items at consignment malls .

“Energy Pills?”

The young lady in professional attire said, “They only have to be verified by the appraiser in our mall .

“In addition, Energy Pills are very scarce on the market . If you need to sell them urgently and your price isn’t high, you can sell them in a few minutes .

“Our mall can directly transfer the money to you instead of having the buyer pay you after they receive the item . ”

“I know . that’s why I chose to consign my items at Blue Sky . ”

Ye Xuan took out the Energy Pills he was going to sell .

Nurturing beasts was very costly .

Hence, after a moment of hesitation, he took out all the remaining Energy Pills he had .

The Beast Tamer profession was far stronger than the Warrior profession .

Since he had a Mythic-Level Beast Taming aptitude, he naturally needed to work hard on the path of beast taming .

As for the Warrior Path, he only intended to casually train as a Warrior .

10

So as to not be at a loss if someone were to come close to him .

As a Beast Tamer, if he got into a fight, it would defeat the entire purpose of beast taming if he, the master, had to charge forward himself .

3

…

“260,000 dollars . ”

After Ye Xuan left Blue Sky Consignment Mall and arrived at home, he found that all nine Energy Pills he had consigned were sold out .

Excluding the handling fee that he needed to pay to the Blue Sky Consignment Mall, the nine Energy Pills sold for 260,000 dollars .

A net loss of almost 10,000 dollars .

But he was in urgent need of money . If he were to sell it at the normal price of 30,000 dollars a pill, there was no telling how long it would take for him to sell all of them .

Hence, he didn’t mind losing some money .

With his aptitude, time itself was money .

4

After he became stronger, a mere 10,000 dollars would naturally be even more insignificant to him .

“Time for shopping!”

After getting the money, Ye Xuan immediately opened the online shop on his phone .

After he navigated to the shops in the same city as him on the app, he started placing orders .

Shops in the same city would confirm orders very quickly .

Basically, after confirming an order, they would deliver the item within a few hours .

“I can form a contract with two beasts now . Should I buy another beast?”

2

After placing his order, Ye Xuan was tempted to buy a beast, and he couldn’t help but turn on his phone again to find out which kind of beast would suit him .

Even after Lil Wan turned into an Ancient Wood Elf, she would still be more of a backup, even though she would have a certain amount of combat effectiveness .

4

If he didn’t want to take the frontline, then his best option was to find a beat that could fight at close range and make a contract with it .

3

It was just that when Ye Xuan opened another browser on his phone to access the online mall, a message popped up .

[Yesterday, Feng Xiangming, president of the Zhongzhou University Student Union, formed a contract with a Platinum-Level Beast, the Dragon Blood Peacock!

4

The Dragon Blood Peacock has a four-star rating . It has a chance to rise to the Challenger Level in the future!

1

Universities operate on a six-year system . Feng Xiangming is a fourth-year student at Zhongzhou University . With him in the Hundred Academy League at Zhongzhou University for the next two years, Zhongzhou University will become terrifyingly powerful!]

“Platinum-Level Dragon Blood Peacock? Four-star grade?”

Seeing this piece of news, Ye Xuan was shocked .

Beasts’ ratings weren’t static .

Each time they advanced in level, their rating would drop by one-star .

4

From Platinum to Diamond, a four-star Dragon Blood Peacock would fall to three stars .

From Diamond to Master, it would drop to two stars .

And further up from Master to Challenger, it would lose all its potential and fall to one star .

2

But even so, the aptitude of this Dragon Blood Peacock was already extremely terrifying .

Because as of now, on the Cerulean Planet, the strongest beast was at the Challenger Level .
