Chapter 72: What's the Difference?



It wasn’t that no beasts in this price range existed; it was just that any beasts fitting this criteria, especially those with healing skills, were usually pre-booked by insiders or official organizations.

For ordinary beast tamers without connections, they could only settle for second-best options.

After all, having a beast like that could significantly increase survival rates.

Moreover, having such a beast would be a shortcut for those who wanted to become doctors or nurses in the future.

Most of these beasts with healing abilities were grass-type beasts.

In a situation where everyone wanted these beasts but couldn’t get them, grass-type beasts’ prices had skyrocketed, also raising the prices of other grass-type beasts that didn’t even have inherited healing skills.

Take Bai Yunmiao\'s Golden Vine, for instance. She got it because her father had worked in a government position for over a decade and secured it for her.

That\'s why, even though grass-type beasts were usually gentle in temperament, they weren’t often recommended as first-time beasts for rookie tamers.

It was impossible for Qiao Sang to buy a beast that already had inherited healing skills, so she shifted her focus to beasts that could potentially learn healing skills later.

There were plenty of beasts that could learn healing skills through training, but when narrowing it down to those with great potential and high evolutionary limits, the options became significantly fewer.

After researching for two hours, Qiao Sang finally narrowed it down to three options: The Cherrywood Cotton, Water Lantern Crocodile, and the Mianmian Bird.

As long as the Cherrywood Cotton and Water Lantern Crocodile were of decent quality and trained properly, they would likely learn one or two healing skills later on.

As for the Mianmian Bird, it had a soft, cotton-like body. Its evolved form, the Swift White Bird, would retain this soft structure while gaining a notable increase in speed, ranking it among the fastest flying beasts in its tier.

The ride would be incredibly comfortable.

Most importantly, all three beasts were priced between 480,000 to 500,000 alliance coins.

The beast egg voucher from the Bai Xin Competition was a one-time-use coupon.

Whether the beast egg cost 100,000 or 500,000, it didn’t matter.

So, of course, she had to choose the most expensive one.

Once Qiao Sang had made her decision, she shut off her computer, got ready for bed, and lay on her back with her hands behind her head.

Staring at the ceiling light and listening to the playful sounds of Fire Fang Dog and Fat Dove from the living room, her thoughts began to drift towards her upcoming plans.

Tomorrow, she\'d buy the beast egg. The day after, she\'d officially sign the endorsement contract. She had also agreed to visit her hometown with her aunt in mid-July.

It was only July 5th today.

Song Yuan had said they would shoot the ad on the same day as the contract signing, to quickly capitalize on the Bai Xin Competition\'s buzz.

That meant that, technically, by July 8th, she’d be free. Maybe she could go to her hometown a bit earlier…

The noises from the living room soon quieted down. The door to her room, which was ajar, creaked as he was pushed open.

Fire Fang Dog poked he\'s head in. Seeing that his tamer was still awake, he happily bounded onto the bed with a couple of leaps.

"Yap."

He lay on its side in her arms, finding a comfortable spot to sleep. A few seconds later, he suddenly remembered something.

Opening his eyes, he jumped off the bed, shut the door, and returned to find his place again.

Qiao Sang smiled in satisfaction.

Her hard work training him for the past month hadn’t been in vain.

When she selected those three beasts, she had specifically chosen ones with gentle temperaments.

Once they hatched, she was confident they would all get along harmoniously.

The more Qiao Sang thought about it, the more she felt optimistic about the future.

Before going to sleep, she habitually checked her Beast Manual Codex

One glance, and she froze.

Shadow Clone (Proficient 3/500) +

Fire Whirl (Proficient 164/500) +

Flame Charge (Proficient 109/500) +

Points: 454

Oh my god!

Fire Fang Dog’s level usually increased by 1 or 2 points per day, but how had it suddenly gained 30 more points overnight?

And its trait had also appeared!

This description was way more detailed than before…

And it seemed like it could be upgraded using points just like skills.

Qiao Sang stared at the data, which looked completely different from yesterday’s, her heart racing.

She remembered that after defeating the young Scale Controller Doll yesterday, the points had shot up by 60, increasing from 220 to 280.

This confirmed her suspicion that the system awarded points based on the opponent\'s strength.

There was no other explanation for why there were only 20 points of difference between the young Scale Controller Doll and the mid-tier Sand Fox.

But today, during the semifinals, she had allocated 25 points to Shadow Clone and 91 points to Flame Charge.

Logically, she should have had 164 points left.

Considering that she usually gained 80 points from defeating a mid-tier beast, the total should have been 404 points.

But now, she had 454 points.

This meant that one of the mid-tier beasts she defeated today had given far more than 80 points.

It was likely the Scale Controller Doll.

However, that wasn’t the most important part.

The most significant thing was that today’s data didn’t follow the usual point progression!

Normally, when Fire Fang Dog used a skill, the corresponding skill would increase by one point.

After yesterday’s battle against the young Scale Controller Doll, the points had increased as usual during training.

But after today’s three battles against mid-tier beasts, Fire Fang Dog hadn’t trained at all.

Still, the data had inexplicably increased.

No, wait!

The data for Ember, Flame Charge, and Shadow Clone had increased normally.

The strange increases were in Charge, Fire Fang, and Fire Whirl.

What was different about those skills?

Qiao Sang tried to recall the battle scenes from today.

Three minutes later.

"Oh, shi—"

She quickly covered her mouth, almost waking up Fire Fang Dog, who was already sound asleep.

But...

Should she wake it up after all?

It wasn’t too late, she could still go downstairs and test her theory…

If her guess was correct, this could drastically increase training efficiency and save a lot of time.

That would free up more time to do other things.

Qiao Sang looked at Fire Fang Dog, drooling in his sleep under the dim light.

In the end, she couldn’t bear to wake him up.

She habitually picked up a tissue from her nightstand and wiped away his drool.

Forget it…

She’d let him sleep for now. Tomorrow morning, she’d wake him up early to test it out. No need to rush tonight...

---

The next morning.

"Yap."

Fire Fang Dog stood by the bed, conflicted.

Why was his tamer sleeping so late?

Should he wake her up?

He was hungry.
