Translator: 549690339 |
To celebrate David’s championship and her own successful admission to Rosewood College, Margaret Yule had reserved a private room at the prestigious South Feast restaurant.
As the most famous long-established restaurant in Southriver Province, South Feast’s ingredients came from only the elite and superior beasts. The main menu featured thirty-six dishes, the most famous delicacy being Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow.
“If South Feast didn’t respect the privacy of its customers and keep news from leaking, I really wouldn’t dare to dine with a celebrity like you, to avoid spreading some bad news about you.” Margaret Yule poured David a glass of wine.
“Come on, it’s just a meal.” David Jones chuckled.
Margaret Yule gave David Jones an odd look, “Do you know how high your popularity is now? Just today, your social media account has gained tens of millions of followers!”
At her words, David Jones was slightly taken aback. He checked his account on his phone and found that he had over fifteen million followers. Even his Q. Circle account avatar had been marked with a V.
Below the account ID, there was an official verification title: “Beastmaster Valedictorian of Rosewood College.”
“All this is just temporary popularity.” David Jones shook his head, not paying it any more heed.
Each year, the Valedictorian of the Five Famous Schools’ Examination would enjoy a period of popularity.
As long as he kept a low profile for a while, the media spotlight, always chasing the hottest topics, would soon shift to other trainers.
Compared to these trivial issues, he would rather focus his attention on the delicious food in front of him.
Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow: A delicious dish made from the liver of an Aurora Lizard and the marrow of a Humming Phoenix. Once consumed, it can significantly enhance a trainer’s physical fitness and vitality.
Margaret Yule appeared a bit astounded.
“I don’t know about other places, but right now you’re a big celebrity in Sunbeam Province, especially in Waterland City. Due to your unprecedented championship victory, a grand celebration is planned throughout the whole city for the next three days.”
Seriously?” David Jones was somewhat surprised, isn’t that a bit of an exaggeration?
“In two thousand years, there have been hundreds, if not dozens of students from Waterland City who have been admitted to Rosewood College. But out of all of them, you are the only one who managed to be the Beastmaster Valedictorian. Waterland Trainer Guild holding a three-day celebration is already very restrained!”
With those words, Margaret Yule looked deeply at David Jones.
Just as the saying goes, “when one person succeeds, everyone around them benefits”. Even though she was ranked lower and was supposed to be eliminated, she was unexpectedly admitted by Rosewood College, which she was certain had something to do with David. Compared to such a great favor, the massive debt of 260 million star coins that David owed her seemed insignificant.
At this point, David Jones noticed something off about Margaret’s gaze, he quickly reminded her: “You might miss out on the Dragon Liver if you don’t start eating.”
“You can have more, if it’s not enough I’ll order more.”
Margaret Yule broke out into a radiant smile, then picked up her phone to continue ordering.
Despite costing a hefty five million star coins per plate of Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow – a price tag comparable to some Class IV elixirs – if it pleased David, she had no problems with ordering more dishes.Ch𝒆ck out l𝒂t𝒆st 𝒏𝒐v𝒆l𝒔 on nov𝒆lbin(.)c𝒐m
After all, upon getting admitted to Rosewood College, the monthly pet resources her family provided had quadrupled. And to her, anything that could be solved with star coins was not a big deal at all.
“Rosewood College’s Beastmaster Valedictorian officially announced-the unprecedented Frost Wyvern sweeps away two King-level pets, the strongest genius Beastmaster in two thousand years is born in Waterland City!”
By that afternoon, the news of David Jones’ championship had made it to the front page of various media outlets. His special Coldjade Snake’s evolved form, Frost Wyvern, drew attention from many Beastmasters.
“I was at the scene and just finished watching the exciting match. I must say, that Frost Wyvern is indeed powerful! But the final was a little boring because the match ended in just a few seconds after the pets looked at each other, there was nothing to watch.”
I heard that the Frost Wyvern is the evolved form of the Coldjade Snake. I wonder if it’s too late now for me to try and contract with a Coldjade Snake?” “Let’s just say, without the psychic talent, new trainers should not even think about successfully contracting with a Coldjade Snake. These superior species with haughty personalities are even harder to contract with than some of the docile elite species.”
Despite many trainers’ warnings, with the development of David Jones’ news, a large number of trainers still turned their attention to the Coldjade Snake.
In the Flowery Kingdom — a place where true dragons were revered, each pureblooded Flood Dragon is a dream pet that ordinary Beastmaster’s would usually only dream of.
Even though the news mentioned it as a special case, there were no shortage of young bloods full of confidence in themselves.
“If others can, why can’t I?”
So, as a result, the number of trainers who failed in contracting the Coldjade Snake surged that day.
David Jones, who was unaware of this, returned to his hotel room’s private cultivation room after dinner. He then took out the reward he got from the rank tournament from the Star Ring.
In the white jade bottle, a flawless pill as pure as the moonlight was emitting a tempting elixir aroma.
David Jones took a gentle sniff and a satisfied look flashed in his eyes. The Star-Condensing Elixir that he had been longing for was finally in his hands.
For trainers, igniting their Arcane Force to move on to Class IV is a major hurdle.
Every trainer would prepare some elixirs in advance before the breakthrough, in order to avoid life-threatening risks.
For instance, the Class IV A tier elixir, Arcane-Accumulating Elixir, to avoid a shortage of Arcane Force when trainers try to ignite their Star Fire for a prolonged period.
And the Class IV S tier Star-Arcane Elixir, to enhance the power of the Star Fire for a better reshaping and sublimation of the Arcane Star.
Lastly, the Class IV S tier Fire Resist Elixir. It improves a trainer’s fire resistance and prevents the trainer from dying due to Star Fire burn.
These three expensive elixirs are known as the ‘Elite Three-Piece Set’ among trainers. They are indispensable for senior trainers aiming to become Elite trainers.
Before the Neolithic Period, compared to psychic martial arts, beast training was a lesser-appreciated skill and was not given much attention by humans. Back then, trainers had a 50% success rate and a 10% death rate in igniting their Star Fire and advancing to Class IV, meaning only half of the trainers can successfully advance, and the rest would fail, possibly resulting in death. However, during the Neolithic Period, the time of trainers started to rise. Alchemist Josh Gallant, devastated by the have lost three wives to ignition failure, dedicated his entire life to creating these three kinds of elixirs.
Ever since, with the aid of the ‘Elite Three-Piece Set,’ trainers have seen their success rate in igniting Star Fire and advancing to Class IV increase to 70%, and the death rate drop to 0.01%.
Don’t underestimate this 20% increase in probability!
In order to get their hands on the expensive ‘Elite Three-Piece Set’ and become Elite Trainers, many mediocre Senior Trainers chose to join Beastmaster families, even signing contracts for up to thirty years without regrets..
