“That’s very convenient.” Andrew thought to himself.

Andrew tried to concentrate and put his hand on the crystal ball.

Buzz!

A moment later, the transparent crystal ball began to emit white light, which was not dazzling but could be clearly seen by everyone.

Seeing this, Edward’s eyes were filled with surprise. He took a casual look at the youngster that was standing in front of him. 

Genius! A word flashed through Edward’s mind.

The rules of the spiritual power test were very simple. As long as it emitted a light, even if it was faint, it meant that the person was a one-star beast tamer. If it emitted a light that could be clearly seen, it meant he or she was a two-star beast tamer. 

As for the brightness of the crystal ball in Andrew’s test, it was very clear that his spiritual power was as much as a two-star beast tamer’s. What’s more, he should be one of the most powerful two-star beast tamers among them.

However, what surprised Edward the most was Andrew’s age. Normally, this youngster who looked like he was in his teens should have just awakened his beast space. However, his spiritual power was as much as that of a two-star beast tamer. He must be a genius.

“What level is this?”

Hearing Andrew’s words, Edward came to his senses and replied, “Sir, you are indeed a two-star beast tamer. It’s absolutely true. Please follow me. I’ll give you the two-star adventurer license. Also, we’ll provide some supplies for you to survive in the wild.”

At this time, Edward’s attitude towards Andrew was completely different from before. Even his tone had become respectful. This made sense. After all, a two-star beast tamer was usually the mainstay of a beast taming group. Therefore, these two-star beast tamers were highly appreciated by Adventurer’s Association.

Andrew nodded. It seemed something had occurred to him, and then he pointed at the pile of Ferocious Beast materials.

“May you help me exchange these materials for crystal coins, please?”

“No problem.”

Following the manager, Andrew walked in to get the two-star adventurer license. 

Most of the adventurers who had been observing outside had their eyes wide open.

Except the Blazing Squad, the other adventurers were all dumbfounded at the moment.

“He becomes a two-star beast tamer at such a young age. He’s bound to be somebody in the future.”

“How silly I was just now! When that gentleman comes back, I’ll apologize to him.”

“Humans differ greatly. Sometimes, the difference is even more obvious than that between humans and ferocious beasts! When I was his age, I was still a brat who didn’t even dare to go out into the wild!”

Hearing these comments, Jerry’s face darkened. He kept drinking beer as if it were the only cure for the fear in his heart.

Jack went forward and tugged Jerry’s arm.

“Hey, man, I’ve told you, this boy is not like those idiots you used to see. If I didn’t stop you just now, I probably wouldn’t be able to see you tomorrow!”

Jerry nodded blankly. At that moment, he believed that Andrew was someone he couldn’t afford to mess with. A little later, he began to sober up. He came to realize that he had planned to attack Andrew just now, which brought him out in a cold sweat.

After taking another big gulp of beer, Jerry asked in a helpless voice, “How do you get to know this monster?” In his opinion, Andrew was just like a monster covered by human skin. After all, an ordinary beast tamer would never have such strong spiritual power at Andrew’s age. 

Andrew must be a genius. Jerry knew that he was no match for Andrew.

“It all started from the day when we killed a Ferocious Crocodile …” Jack then told Jerry about what he had experienced. The other explorers all gathered around and listened to Jack talk about what he had witnessed in the wild.

Of course, the Blazing Squad didn’t know every single detail of Andrew’s adventure. All they did was just imagine how Andrew would deal with those Ferocious Beasts. In short, they didn’t care if they were making up a story, they just wanted to show people how awesome Andrew was.

In the end, they even said that Andrew was supposed to be a three-star beast tamer, because he destroyed the rattlesnake cave, the Stinger Wasps’ hive on his own, and casually killed the purple-spotted spider and the Crimson Serpent.

After listening to the stories of Andrew told by the Blazing Squad, all the adventurers believed that Andrew was definitely a genius, the smartest genius to be exact.

On the other side.

Andrew was awarded a two-star adventurer medal by the Adventurer’s Association, as well as a survival watch.

This kind of watch could show the information of what was happening in the wild at the moment, which was updated by the Adventurers’ Association. That’s to say, it could provide beast tamers with a network where they could share information at any time, and every two-star adventurer could get such a watch.

After getting what he wanted, Andrew asked, “Mr. Edward, I’m just wondering what are the prices of 100 pounds of Single-horned Earth Dragon blood and the skull of Black-bone Winged Dragon?”

Hearing this, Edward thought for a little while. Then, a smile appeared on his face.

“Sir, do you want to use the blood of Single-horned Earth Dragon to improve your physique and the skull of Black-bone Winged Dragon to make a weapon?”

Andrew did not deny what Edward said but went back to his question. 

“Sure, may I ask how much these two materials are?”

Edward nodded and then replied, “Single-horned Earth Dragon and Black-bone Winged Dragon are both rare beasts. What’s more, their materials have special purposes. So, their prices are relatively high.

“100 pounds of Single-horned Earth Dragon blood is worth about 500 crystal coins. As for the skull of Black-bone Winged Dragon, I have to say it has never been bought or sold before, but I guess it is worth more than 1000 crystal coins.”

After Edward said that, it seemed something had occurred to him.

“However, both of them are materials in short supply in the market. You know, these materials can directly improve a beast tamer’s physique. That’s why many people want to buy them. So, no one has sold these two things in the market yet. But if you need them, I will inform you as soon as someone sells them in the market.”

Andrew listened carefully.

Both of the two materials were expensive. After all, they were worth about 2,000 crystal coins in total. That was a price equivalent to 20 two-star Ferocious Beast’s crystals nuclei. What’s more, both of them were in extremely low supply while being highly sought after in the market, which meant even if one was rich, it was not likely for him or her to get them from the market.

The only thing Andrew could do right now was wait!

“Well, thank you for your information.”

“My pleasure. If these two materials appear in the market, I’ll inform you immediately.” Edward promised as he patted his chest. He was very willing to help this two-star beast-taming genius.

After that, Andrew and Edward chatted for a while and exchanged contacts before returning to the hall of the Adventurer’s Association.

“Mr. Seuss, I’ve already exchanged those Ferocious Beast materials into crystal coins for you. 136 crystal coins in total. Please have a check.” The staff took a crystal coin card and handed it to Andrew respectfully.

From now on, she would no longer treat Andrew like a little kid, After all, she didn’t dare to look down upon a two-star beast tamer.

The staff was very nervous at the moment because she was afraid that Andrew had a complaint about her attitude toward him. And if Andrew complained to Edward about it, she might lose her job.

However, Andrew didn’t care about it at all. He took the crystal coin card and ignored her rudeness..
