Chapter 5: Can't Afford It
The combat beast pet area occupies a very wide area.
You can see with the naked eye that large iron cages imprison some large and ferocious combat beast pets.
They are completely different from the small and cute life beast pets.
This is also normal.
Life beast pets only need to act cute and please their owners.
But combat beast pets have to fight alongside their owners, facing ferocious monsters or powerful transferors.
At this moment.
Wang Chen stepped into the combat beast pet area and started looking at the introduction cards hanging in front of each beast cage.
[Beast Pet: Xuanjing Demon Tiger.]
[Gender: Male.]
[Level: 15.]
[Level Cap: 90.]
[Type: Combat Beast Pet.]
[Bloodline Rank: Tier 3 Xuan Beast.]
[Four Attributes: Strength 200; Constitution 200; Wisdom 50; Agility 180.]
[Remark: The Xuanjing Demon Tiger has a fierce and combative personality, its Xuanjing tiger skin has extremely high defense, impervious to blades and spears, invulnerable to water and fire, and its Xuanjing tiger claws are extremely sharp, capable of splitting rocks and piercing gold.]
[Price: 7 million gold coins.]
……
"Hiss!"
When Wang Chen saw the price tag on the last hanging card, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The joy that had overflowed because of the extra 500W gold coins in his bank card dissipated by more than half.
Damn!
Combat beast pets are so expensive!
No wonder those people at school were gloating when he transferred to become a beast master.
This profession really is 'pay-to-win'!
A combat beast pet with a bloodline of 'Tier 3 Xuan Beast' dares to sell for 7 million gold coins!
Here, it is necessary to introduce the most important bloodline rank and level cap for beast pets.
For example, this Xuanjing Demon Tiger, marked 'Level Cap: 90', means that this beast pet's future level cap is 90.
It means that this Xuanjing Demon Tiger will be limited to level 90 unless it gets lucky and eats an elixir that can enhance its bloodline rank.
'Tier 3 Xuan Beast' refers to the bloodline rank of the beast pet.
The bloodline ranks of beast pets are ordered from low to high as follows: Mortal Beast, Demon Beast, Xuan Beast, Spirit Beast, Origin Beast, Divine Beast, Holy Beast, Ancestral Divine Beast.
From Mortal Beast to Origin Beast, each level is divided into nine tiers from low to high.
For Divine Beasts, there are no tiers, but there is another ranking.
The stages above the Divine Beast rank are ordered from low to high as follows: Transcendent, Legendary, Epic, Overlord, Monarch, Cosmic.
Wang Chen couldn't even dream of...
A 15-level Tier 3 Xuan Beast can sell for 7 million gold coins.
"Right, I can use the divine skill Bloodline Identification Technique to see if this Xuanjing Demon Tiger has any hidden bloodlines..."
Wang Chen remembered his golden finger.
In an instant, his bright and clear eyes became extremely deep.
He directly looked at the Xuanjing Demon Tiger sleeping in the beast cage, and its bloodline information immediately appeared before his eyes.
[Beast Pet: Xuanjing Demon Tiger.]
[No hidden bloodline of the Divine Beast White Tiger detected in this beast pet.]
[Final Identification Result: Ordinary Tier 3 Xuan Beast.]
Hmm...
Okay, it seems that it is just an ordinary Xuanjing Demon Tiger, as the information on the hanging card said.
After reading about the Xuanjing Demon Tiger, Wang Chen did not stop, but directly scanned all the combat beast pets in the surrounding cages.
[Beast Pet: Armored Dragon Lizard.]
[No hidden bloodline of the Spirit Beast Earth Dragon detected in this beast pet.]
[Final Identification Result: Ordinary Tier 5 Xuan Beast.]
Price: 9 million gold coins.
Wang Chen: emmmmm.
[Beast Pet: Lightning Wolf.]
[No hidden bloodline of the Divine Beast Fenrir detected in this beast pet.]
[Final Identification Result: Ordinary Tier 7 Xuan Beast.]
Price: 11 million gold coins.
Wang Chen didn't dare to look any further.
[Beast Pet: Frost Spirit Bird.]
[No hidden bloodline of the Divine Beast Frost Phoenix detected in this beast pet.]
[Final Identification Result: Ordinary Tier 1 Spirit Beast.]
Price: 20 million gold coins.
……
After looking around, Wang Chen found that the cheapest one was the Xuanjing Demon Tiger he saw at the beginning, priced at 7 million gold coins!
Ah...
Wang Chen had no choice but to thicken his skin and find the clerk again.
"Excuse me, do you have any combat beast pets with a bloodline rank of Demon Beast?"
The clerk was still very polite, nodding and smiling, "Sir, yes, please follow me."
Under the guidance of the clerk.
Wang Chen took the elevator from the luxuriously decorated first floor to the simply decorated second floor.
At this time, Wang Chen saw that this place was actually bustling with people!
Many peers in different school uniforms were here selecting their beast pets.
Wang Chen looked up at the hanging sign in this area, which read: Affordable Area.
So real...
Too real.
The pets sold upstairs in the store are really the store's treasures!
The first, second, and third underground floors are the affordable areas!
"Sir, there are not only Demon Beast rank beast pets here, but also Mortal Beast rank beast pets. You can choose carefully, and once you have chosen, you can go to the first-floor counter to pay."
"If the beast pet you choose is too large to carry, you can contract it directly after paying the money, so you can include it in the beast pet space."
"Of course... if you are not convenient to contract on-site, our store also offers home delivery service for just 5000 gold coins."
It must be said.
The service quality of big stores is indeed high.
Even if they see that Wang Chen is not a rich man, they still maintain a very polite service attitude.
"Thank you."
Wang Chen said thanks and then turned around and walked into the affordable combat beast pet area.
It seems that many students have transferred to beast masters this year.
As a result, this place was crowded, with peers everywhere.
Wang Chen glanced at a few beast pets around him.
They were the Flame Sparrow, the Steel Armored Turtle, and the Swift Wind Rabbit.
All were Mortal Beast rank.
Prices ranged from 1000 to 10,000 gold coins.
This price difference compared to Xuan Beast rank beast pets is really huge.
The starting price for combat beast pets with the Demon Beast rank was 100,000 gold coins.
This price, for an ordinary family, they could still scrape together money to buy a beast pet for their child.
After all, a beast master without a beast pet is almost equivalent to zero combat power.
They wouldn't even let you participate in the transfer entrance exam because entering the transfer trial secret realm without a beast pet is equivalent to seeking death.
If you die, it's fine, but parents would still make a fuss.
To avoid such troubles, beast masters without beast pets and summoners without contract spirits are all prohibited from participating in the transfer entrance exam.
Honestly contract a beast pet, then take the exam next year.
This is why, although combat beast pets are not cheap, these students who transferred to beast masters are so eager to buy one.
Wang Chen didn't delay, his deep eyes scanned every combat beast pet here.
Finally...
After continuous hard observation, heaven rewards the diligent!
Wang Chen stopped in front of a Mortal Beast pet named 'Little Azure Python'
