Huang Juyun was fretting about this, too.

Although only a few days had passed, he realized that it wasn’t so simple to find suitable epic-quality subdued beasts.

After all, the Zhen family had been around in Bei Du for a long time, with an extensive network of connections. Many clans weren’t willing to offend the Zhen family by selling their epic-quality beast cards to the Huang family.

Of course, if the Huang family could pay the price, they wouldn’t mind. However, this would practically be like robbing a burning house.

Take the Ou family, for example. They had conveyed the news that they had a six-star epic-quality beast card, but the price they offered had left Huang Juyun cursing: a square foot of spiritual jade in exchange.

This was simply a robbery! A square foot of spiritual jade was worth close to a hundred million purple crystal points! That was almost the price of two seven-star epic-quality beast cards, and yet they dared to offer such an astronomical price for a six-star epic-quality beast card. They were simply asking for too much!

To be fair, clans with epic-quality beast cards weren’t usually looking to sell them. Their actual price might be much higher. But, it couldn’t be that high!

Huang Juyun didn’t agree to their offer right away.

Things weren’t at the end of the line yet. He just couldn’t endure getting cut so deeply. Otherwise, he would have to be prepared to get cut even deeper to purchase other beast cards.

Moreover, there was still no news of Zhang Che at present. Huang Juyun wasn’t sure if Zhang Che could reach Tier Six before he returned.

It’d be fine if he managed to achieve Tier Six. Huang Juyun would have nothing to complain about getting ripped off. That spiritual jade was Zhang Che’s to begin with; for the sake of obtaining victory at the match, bleeding a little was still endurable.

But what if Zhang Che failed to achieve Tier Six?

With that, let alone being ripped off, it wouldn’t even be of help to Zhang Che at all! Not only would it be a problem for Zhang Che’s safety in this battle, even the Huang family’s reputation would be affected!

“Hopefully this kid comes back soon and has risen to Tier Six. Otherwise, the match will be really dangerous…”

Naturally, wanting Zhang Che to delay his return to avoid the match was impossible.

Unless Zhang Che had disappeared from the world, whenever he returned, the match would take place as planned.

Not only that, he wouldn’t be allowed to delay the match indefinitely, either!

If Zhang Che didn’t show up for three consecutive months, then it would be taken as him admitting defeat. In the future, whatever dirty tricks the Zhen family tried to pull, the brass would close one eye to them, or they might even be biased towards the Zhen family!

That was definitely not a solution Zhang Che and the Huang family could afford!

At that moment, Huang Juyun’s personal terminal suddenly vibrated.

He opened it in a hurry. A faint look of surprise showed on his face. After the call connected, he smiled, saying, “How is it, Old Chang? Have you decided to sell your family’s epic-quality beast card to me?”

“I say, you don’t go too overboard with me now. Going by the market price, an ordinary six-star epic-quality beast card cost less than ten million purple crystal points. The spiritual jade I promised you is already worth close to three times that!”

“Alright, I’ll give you another thirty percent, but you have to promise the attributes of your epic-quality beast card mustn’t be too trash! We’re brothers that have known each other for many years. You can’t set me up like that, can you?”

“Alright, I’ll come over right away then. If your beast card is indeed as good as you said, we’ll complete the exchange immediately!”

After the call ended, Huang Juyun had an overjoyed look on his face. He had finally gotten the first epic-quality beast card. It’d be about right if he found two more.

Two for fighting, and one kept for reserve.

Epic-quality subdued beasts were unlike legendary, or dark gold-quality. It wasn’t like the more you have, the stronger you were.

Since epic-quality subdued beasts had False Domains, the False Domains of different types of epic-quality subdued beasts would not only greatly affect their enemies, they would also restrain the False Domains of the other epic-quality beasts their owner had to a certain degree, especially epic-quality beasts with conflicting attributes, like fire element and ice element False Domains.

If a beastmaster used those two types of subdued beasts in battle at the same time, not only would their strength not amplify, but due to the two conflicting False Domains, they might even lead to their overall strength being diminished.

In other words, a beastmaster could only use two epic-quality subdued beasts in battle at one time at the most, and the two subdued beasts could not have restraining attributes with one another.

Any more than that was unfeasible, because even if you had three epic-quality subdued beasts, and their False Domains didn’t restrain one another too obviously, they would still be greatly affected, and their combat strength might not be comparable to just two.

So, the combat strength of beastmasters with epic-quality or higher subdued beasts wasn’t like the more you had, the stronger you were. It was the exact opposite. Even if all of your subdued beasts were epic-quality, but if you dared to summon them all out at the same time, the results would be something else. The enemies didn’t even have to come attack; your side would plunge into chaos first.

“Hopefully the attributes of the epic-quality beast Old Chang’s family has aren’t too fierce, or it’d be hard to find a complementary one.”

After praying silently, Huang Juyun immediately instructed his adjutant to go prepare a car. At the same time, he cut a small piece off of the large spiritual jade and left in a hurry.

Looking at the spiritual jade worth around forty million purple crystal points in the car, Huang Juyun immediately felt his heart aching.

-Damn it, these people are more cunning than the next. They don’t care about relations at all, and are only thinking of ripping a fat one off of me.

-Old Chang was a little better. The price he offered was something I can accept. After all, what goes around comes around. When they’re in urgent need of epic-quality beast cards, they’ll have to be prepared to get ripped off.

-But, clans like the Ou family, whose relations are better with the Zhen family, are truly trying to loot a burning house. They actually dared make an offer of a hundred million purple crystal points! Their hearts are as dark as coal!-

—–

Zhang Che had no idea that Huang Juyun was currently worrying about his matters. He had to get ripped and bled a few times to prepare sufficient beast cards for Zhang Che.

At present, Zhang Che was slaughtering mid-tier exotic beasts without restraint deep into the beast world with his babies, feeling wave after wave of soul force points rushing into his spiritual sea. He couldn’t keep his mouth closed from the joy.

After searching this area for a few days, he finally found a place with an abnormally high population of mid-tier exotic beasts.

Under such circumstances, if there were enough exotic beasts in the surroundings, he needed only half a month at most to rise to Tier Six beastmaster.

“Not bad, not bad. If this continues, not only will I advance to Tier Six soon, I’ll also get a large amount of mid-tier beast cards. Premium House’s business will only get better and better!”

Just as Zhang Che was fantasizing about himself reaching the height of humanity, the area of this army of capable babies was suddenly cleared.

That’s right; he cleared it. Barely any exotic beasts could be seen ahead now!

Zhang Che’s face immediately sank. He recognized what this situation signified.

There might be a very powerful exotic beast resting ahead, leading to the surrounding relatively weaker exotic beasts keeping away from this area, so as not to become food.

If it were in the past when the golden vortex hadn’t fallen into a slumber, perhaps Zhang Che would feel pleasantly surprised and be drawn to go check things out.

After all, he did have a chance of slaying a mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast, if that was the case.

He couldn’t do it now, however. Without his swords, which had the strongest attacks, although Zhang Che didn’t fear epic-quality exotic beasts, there was almost no chance of him obtaining victory.

At present, he only hoped to hunt more mid-tier exotic beasts to raise his beastmaster tier to Tier Six as soon as possible. Since there was no longer an abundance of mid-tier exotic beast here, there was no need for him to waste his time on an epic-quality exotic beast which he was destined to be unable to kill.

However, since he was already here, was he not going to take a look at it?

Zhang Che was slightly hesitant. Just checking it out seemed fine…

In any case, it wouldn’t hurt for him to take a look at it from far away to see exactly what kind of exotic beast it was. He could quickly leave on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon anyway, and it wouldn’t be a problem even if the exotic beast resting here was shockingly fast.

At the most, he’d let the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon go into overdrive again. With the rainbow crystal, Zhang Che didn’t have to worry about the dragon not recovering.

Also…

-It might not necessarily be a powerful exotic beast. After all, there were so many mid-tier exotic beasts around just now. If there really is a powerful exotic beast, these shrimps wouldn’t have gathered here in such large numbers and waited for their turn to become food, right?

-I’ll go closer and take a look carefully, then. I don’t have to go too deep. Once there are signs of danger, I’ll retreat immediately. Not much time will be wasted…-

Zhang Che’s curiosity prevailed once again. In the end, he recalled his babies, leaving only the Purple Crystal Tortoise on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s back, and flew deeper into this area at an unhurried pace.

This was an area with very dense vegetation, but there were no traces of animals at all.

The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon flew a few dozens kilometers in one go. Zhang Che didn’t discover a single exotic beast, only a couple of small animals appearing in his sight from time to time.

“Strange. I’d better not go in…”

This place was too strange. It didn’t seem like a powerful exotic beast was resting here at all. Perhaps there might be some other unknown dangers.

So, Zhang Che decided to not go in and leave while he still could.

Although his curiosity was gnawing at him, ultimately Zhang Che couldn’t risk his life for it, or he’d be really stupid otherwise.

However, just as Zhang Che was about to leave…

A hint of a mixture of shock and wild joy suddenly showed on his face.

In his spiritual sea, the golden vortex, which had fallen into slumber for a long time, and heavens knew how long it would be before it fully recovered, actually throbbed a few times!

Although it was very minute, Zhang Che clearly sensed it. That thing existed in his spiritual sea. Of course he’d feel it right away if anything happened to it!

Now, Zhang Che had to go check things out, no matter what!
