Chapter 709: Chapter 316: Old Sha, I Want to Eat Fish!_2
The multitude of voices fully illustrated that this Eastern Sea flood disaster was not only a crisis but also a golden opportunity for countless Beast Tamers.
After all, such large-scale Ferocious Beast hunting events were rare.
Countless Beast Tamers with various needs were calling out their requests, while the more powerful ones advertised under large, erected signs further away.
For instance, the family business Su Ping was most familiar with.
“’Pingyun, in gratitude to our fellow Beast Tamers, supports the sale of Illusionary Hearts in exchange for resource materials; no monetary purchase is required! Additionally, at six o’clock tonight, we will continue to auction twenty Time Potions to the highest bidder! Other resources and items will also be available for sale, and Pingyun will also be purchasing…’”
Indeed. Su Ping nodded. Dong Muyun was very astute in this regard.
In such a setting, Time Potions and Illusionary Hearts, items that could save lives at critical moments, were highly sought after by countless hunting Beast Tamers.
This also indirectly proved just how bustling the flood disaster and Beast Tide of Crescent Island were.
The sight made Su Ping’s blood boil with excitement, and he wished he could join in right then and there.
And it wasn’t just him whose blood was boiling with excitement.
Descending from the ferry, Su Ping followed the crowd to the coastal road of Crescent Island.
A few people also glanced at Su Ping, whom no one seemed to recognize.
“Young man, you look so young, how old are you this year? What’s the strength of your Pet Beast?”
“Nineteen…”
True to expectations, upon hearing his age, many who had come up to ask questions gave him odd looks, then turned and left.
The slightly kinder ones would offer a well-intentioned warning like, “It’s very dangerous here. If you don’t have anything specific to do, don’t go to the seaside just to join the crowd,” before leaving.
As for any scornful or dismissive looks Su Ping had anticipated, there were none.
After all, in a place like this, everyone was racing against time; people so lacking in judgment were indeed rare.
This left Su Ping a bit disappointed.
However, his main purpose for coming here was to assess Xiao Qing’s combat ability, so he didn’t waste any more time. He approached the kind-looking man in his thirties who had just warned him and smiled slightly.
“Brother! Hello!”
Zhao Chen turned around, his brow furrowed slightly as he looked at the grinning young man before him.
“What do you want?”
Zhao Chen could almost guess the outcome for such a young man coming here just to join the excitement.
There was no helping it. Many Beast Tamers from the inland cities of Dragon Nation had indeed been at peace for too long. Their only experience with Pet Beast combat was in arenas, the kind with a referee firing a starting pistol.
However, in this wild environment, over the past few days, he had seen too many of these self-important types meet their end in Crescent Lake.
Keep in mind, over the past few days, countless Ferocious Beasts had died, but their numbers seemed unaffected. However, there were definitely no shortages of casualties among the Beast Tamers and their Pet Beasts!
Thinking of this, Zhao Chen said, “Kid, I just wanted to give you some friendly advice because of your age. You’d better train your Pet Beast well before coming to such places, or at least try not to go directly to the battle platforms at sea. I have to find my team members; people are waiting for me, so I really don’t have time.”
Su Ping understood the man’s feelings, so he directly summoned Old Sha, whom he had stored in his Beast Taming Space after boarding the ship.
Instantly, the towering Wanmu Wolf made its appearance. Its peculiar figure, strange posture, and the two horns on its head immediately attracted the attention of everyone nearby. Zhao Chen was also slightly stunned, looking at the giant wolf before him, which resembled a magnificent wooden Kylin, and was momentarily at a loss.
He didn’t recognize what kind of Pet Beast this was at first glance, and it was clear that neither did anyone else around him.
However, there was no doubt that the aura it exuded made everyone subconsciously step back:
Monarch Level!
On this small island, this was considered high-end combat power.
After all, Monarch Level already signified a High-Level Beastmaster; in some smaller cities, this meant being part of the upper echelons.
Zhao Chen gulped, looking at the young man before him.
But this time, his expression was completely different.
Nineteen years old? Are you trying to fool a ghost?
This creature was summoned from the Beast Taming Space!
Noticing Zhao Chen’s gaze, Su Ping smiled, returned Old Sha to the Beast Taming Space, and then said, “Actually, I don’t have any other intentions. I just want to ask about the process of hunting these aquatic Ferocious Beasts here on Crescent Island. It’s my first time here, so I’m unfamiliar with the procedures.”
This time, Zhao Chen no longer displayed the slightest impatience and quickly explained, “It’s like this: to hunt on Crescent Island, there are two methods. First, if you have a Water Element Pet Beast, you can go directly underwater to fight. However, even Monarch Level Beastmasters seldom choose this method because the underwater conditions are complex. If anything goes wrong, there’s little room to maneuver.
“Secondly, you can board those Sea-Boat Stone platforms. Each platform has special resources placed on it to attract those underwater Pet Beasts. However, to board a platform, you need to get sea vouchers from the officials. You use jet packs to get onto the platform. After leaving the platform, you must hand over a portion of your catch as payment for the sea voucher!”
Su Ping nodded. This was indeed convenient. It was quite something for the Jianghai Beastmaster Association to devise and implement such a method in such a short time.
