Chapter 56

Diamond-Grade Material Qingyun Dew Appears, Head to Chi Yi City!

“Are you planning to contract a second beast? I see, it’s about time.”

“Xiao An, do you have any specific requirements for your second beast?”

Hearing Bai Zian’s words, Bai Jingchong nodded slightly.

In fact, he had been expecting this conversation. Bai Zian had already advanced to the Black Iron rank, so it was time for him to contract a second beast. Unlike before, Bai Jingchong wouldn’t interfere with Bai Zian’s choice this time, letting him make the decision himself.

After all, Bai Zian’s first beast was already a water-type, fulfilling the Bai family’s requirements. Hence, Bai Jingchong was now more focused on what Bai Zian wanted for his second beast.

“For my second beast, I prefer a flying-type spirit beast…”

Bai Zian responded without hesitation, stating his preference.

A flying-type beast had always been in his plans, offering numerous advantages. The ability to fly would significantly increase his safety. Imagine encountering a spirit beast or enemy he couldn’t defeat—having a flying-type beast could carry him away from danger.

While Bai Yin Fish could evolve into the sky-soaring Kunpeng after nine evolutions, gaining the ability to fly, Bai Zian knew that this evolution was far off. He couldn’t wait for that day; he wanted a flying-type beast now.

“A flying-type spirit beast, huh? That shouldn’t be too difficult.”

“The flying beasts of Chi Yi City are quite impressive,” Bai Jingchong pondered briefly before providing an answer.

In the secret world of the Ten Thousand Spider Nest, cities were named with specific rules.

A place called a “Shi” (town) was a subsidiary city under a main city, while a “Cheng” (city) indicated one of the seven large central city bases, also known as the seven main cities.

Chi Yi City, being one of the main cities, specialized in fire-type and flying-type beasts.

Bai Jingchong’s suggestion made Bai Zian’s eyes light up, aligning perfectly with his own thoughts.

He had already considered Chi Yi City, knowing that Bai Lin City didn’t have the flying-type spirit beasts he desired. He had been planning to visit Chi Yi City before school started.

Dongdong~~

Just then, a knock echoed through the room. A plain-looking middle-aged man entered, handed Bai Jingchong a sealed letter, and left.

“Grandfather, has something happened?” Bai Zian asked curiously. He recognized the man as Bai Ya, one of the Bai family’s stewards responsible for intelligence. Given the urgency with which Bai Ya delivered the message, it must have been important.

“Xiao An, you’re in luck.”

“There’s news from Chi Yi City—a material you’re looking for has appeared at an auction there,” Bai Jingchong smiled as he spoke, revealing the contents of the letter.

Bai Zian’s eyes lit up with excitement. He had previously asked his grandfather to help him find materials for crafting the Awakening Origin Liquid, including Nixia Secret Leaf, Qingyun Dew, and Tianyuan Tears.

“Really, Grandfather? Which material appeared in the auction at Chi Yi City?” Bai Zian asked eagerly.

“According to the message we received, the diamond-grade material Qingyun Dew has surfaced.” Bai Jingchong said.

At these words, Bai Zian couldn’t contain his joy.

It’s Qingyun Dew!

He had already obtained the Nixia Secret Leaf and Tianyuan Tears, only missing the Qingyun Dew. And now, it was appearing in an auction. This was a huge surprise. With this material, he could finally start crafting the Awakening Origin Liquid and potentially awaken his second beast-taming talent.

“I need to go to Chi Yi City,” Bai Zian said with determination.

“Naturally, and this time, I’ll be going with you,” Bai Jingchong nodded.

Bai Zian was a bit surprised that his grandfather wanted to accompany him, but upon reflection, it made sense. Qingyun Dew was a diamond-grade material, highly coveted by powerful beast tamers. As a mere Black Iron rank tamer, Bai Zian wouldn’t stand a chance of securing the material on his own, even with his Bai family status.

Furthermore, even if he did manage to obtain the Qingyun Dew, there was a high likelihood that other tamers might target him for it.

A diamond-grade material was enough to tempt anyone into taking risks.

“Thank you, Grandfather,” Bai Zian expressed his gratitude sincerely, realizing the importance of having his grandfather’s protection.

With that, the plan was set. Bai Jingchong and Bai Zian would make the trip to Chi Yi City together.
