Although there were many pet resources on the sixth layer of the Labyrinth, the winding paths made it extremely difficult to find them. As a result, in the later part of the exploration, David Jones didnt discover many noteworthy level IV pet resources.
Along the treasure hunting journey, David Jones and Margaret Yule occasionally encountered teams of other examinees.
Those who managed to delve into the sixth layer of the Earth Labyrinth were mainly elite teams consisting of five or more people. Compared to these teams, David Jones and Margaret Yule stood out like a crane amongst a flock of chickens.
However, as there were no pet resources to compete for, not many examinee teams wanted to provoke David Jones and Margaret. After all, those who could walk through the sixth layer of the Labyrinth were not easy targets.
Time flew by quickly, and the practical exam was soon about to end.
Looking at the time displayed on his phone, David Jones couldnt help but think of the Dragon Blood Hong Fruit given to him by his Senior Uncle Rose Leigh.
Back then, he was overwhelmed by the immense surprise, but now thinking about it, using such a super rare pet resource might be a bit wasteful for him at an earlier stage.
One should know that the evaluation of a species level is determined by the potential and Arcane Grade that the beast can reach.
In other words, even the Overlord species also had varying degrees of rarity, and there was a difference between strong and weak ones.
David Jones believed that the Overlord species was not the end for Rainbow, but its starting point. As such, the Dragon Blood Hong Fruit should be used when its effects could be maximized.
According to the most perfect evolution plan, for Rainbows Ice-Fire Dragon evolution, four key factors were missing:
First, the perfect-level Rain Dance evolution skill.
Second, Rainbow must break through its limits and evolve into a King species without fusing with Dragon Element.
Third, Rainbows strength should reach the Class VI apex, and sublimate the Dragon Element to its limit. Of course, if Davids dragon-wielding power could sublimate the Dragon Element to its limit earlier, evolution could be advanced.
Fourth, a Dragon Ball and heart of a Class VII Overlord or above (Note: it must be a True Dragon Species).
In David Jones view, the first three conditions were easy to meet, but the last one was extremely difficult.
Unlike Class VII Overlords Magic Core, the Dragon Ball serves as an origin of Dragon Force only found in the Class VII Overlord dragon species. With an immense amount of Dragon Force contained within it, this rarest pet resource could only be obtained by slaying dragons.
Even half-dragons or hybrid dragons have the opportunity to evolve into true Dragon Species after consuming a Class VII Dragon Ball.
Of course, a talented Dragon Species might follow its own unique path in absorbing the Dragon Ball, ultimately becoming a special mutated half-dragon. It might even surpass the True Dragon Species in terms of strength alone.
For instance, the famous Eclipse Dragon from the Ancient Age was a top predator, even treating legendary Emperor dragons like mere snacks.
For this reason, in terms of value, even a level VIII legendary resource would hardly be able to exchange for a Class VII Dragon Ball.
Even for a senior researcher like Daisy Keynes, the acquisition of Class VII Ice and Fire resources had already cost her a fortune. As for resources like Class VII Dragon Balls, she might have never even seen one, let alone buying it!
This was also the reason why David Jones couldnt get a Dragon Ball from Daisy Keynes Star Ring. Even a senior researcher couldnt get such a treasure.
Fortunately, the moment David Jones laid eyes on the Dragon Blood Hong Fruit, he understood that his teacher or senior uncle must have held a treasure like a Class VII Dragon Ball in their possession.
Boom!
Just then, a loud explosion interrupted David Jones thoughts.
He looked up and saw Frost Falcon, gasping for breath, pinning down a small, lifeless Black Rock Wasting Bull with its terrifying claws.
As a top-grade elite species, the strength of the Black Rock Bull in the labyrinth is usually at the fourth Order in the middle position. However, this bull in front of them was obviously not fully grown and had a strength of only the second Order in the upper position.
This is top-quality snowflake beef! David Jones unconsciously swallowed.
Unlike the other weird and inedible beasts, Black Rock Bull was quite rare in the labyrinth.
With Rainbows help, David Jones now had tens of thousands of pounds of frozen beef, but a calf like this was his first sighting.
Perhaps the calf had an even better texture, making it perfect for hot pot.
I dont care about the Magic Core and the fur, but can I have the meat on this calf?
Upon hearing this, Margaret Yule was slightly taken aback before realizing that David Jones was an outstanding cook.
Thinking about the lobster five-course feast David Jones had treated her to last time, she began to feel hungry.
You can.
David Jones: Alright, Ill treat you to my snowflake beef steak later. Theres just five minutes left for the assessment.
June 20th, Tuesday, the day the labyrinth assessment ended.
After returning to the hotel and freshening up, David Jones picked up his phone and took Margaret Yule to a hot pot restaurant near Rosewood College. They planned to try the taste of the Black Rock Bulls meat to see if it was as delicious as the Beast Trainer Catalogue had claimed.
Because the practical assessment had just ended, surrounding restaurants were packed. Even the expensive hot pot restaurants private rooms were filled. David Jones and Margaret Yule had to sit in the hall.
As soon as they sat down, Margaret Yule handed over a detailed document.
Ive recently collected information on the popular exam candidates. With your strength, achieving the top three in the ranking competition shouldnt be a problem. But there are two dark horses in this practical assessment that you need to watch out for.
Dark horses?
David Jones looked at the information in surprise.
[Field Astrophel]: A student from Mountain Citys No. 1 secondary school, male, with Arcane Star Cultivation of the Third Order medium position. Innate Talent unknown, suspected to be a Strengthen Beast Taming Contract type talent.
The initial pet is of the King species, Earthbound Horned Dragon, with pet strength ranging between lower Third-Class to middle Third-Class. Its normal source energy value is around 19,000.
[Vivian Gallagher]: A student from Lin Qing, the N0.1 secondary school in Forest City, female, Arcane Star Cultivation of Third-Class later position. Innate Talent unknown, extremely powerful psychic power, suspected to be a rare Psychic Strengthen Talent.
The initial pet is a King species, Pure Ice Fox, with pet strength between the middle of Third-Class to the upper Third-Class.
Due to Spirit Contract suppression, the normal energy value of the Pure Ice Fox could not reach the lower limit of a King species, only around 15,000.
It is said that Vivian Gallagher was recognized by the Pure Ice Fox due to her extremely strong psychic powers in her youth.
To successfully bind a Beast Taming Contract, a strong senior from the Gallagher family used a closely guarded secret technique, the Double Spirit Contract, to suppress the Ice Foxs strength.
Note: The Double Spirit Contract is a sealing Mystic Art that assists beast trainers in contracting high-ranking pets.
This Mystic Art can not only subtly improve the pets potential and strength over time but also effectively shorten the pets growth and development time, albeit with significant drawbacks..
