Zhang Che waited until the Purple Jade Condor was done transforming before going to sleep. He had to see the new attributes of the two beast cards before he rested.
He checked the Purple Jade Condor card first. This was the first dark gold-quality beast card Zhang Che had ever had, after all. It had been a great help to him!
The Purple Jade Condor’s attributes didn’t change much after advancing to legend-quality. Its basic attributes were almost unchanged. Its innate attribute, however, underwent a shocking change. It could actually scout fifty kilometers away now!
That was terrifying!
With the Purple Jade Condor’s scouting ability, as long as they weren’t in extremely complicated terrain, Zhang Che could get a handle on the situation from fifty kilometers away. It was totally like a mini radar with an imaging system.
Also, the Purple Jade Condor’s Wing Blade skill had grown even stronger. Both its duration and cooldown time had improved. Its power was definitely far beyond before, too.
This fellow was now at four-star legend-quality, after all. It was many times stronger than when it was still at low-tier dark gold-quality.
What Zhang Che looked forward to the most was the Purple Jade Condor’s new flight speed.
This subdued beast’s forte was its speed. When it was at three-stars dark gold-quality, its flight speed was already over two hundred meters per second. It must have increased by at least half, reaching over three hundred meters per second, right? (Ed. Note: Which would be about Mach One.)
Although Zhang Che didn’t test it, he believed his guess was right. Not only that, he could also tell that when the Purple Jade Condor advanced to epic-quality in the future, its flight speed would definitely surpass the speed of sound!
Having flight speed above the speed of sound was an extremely important indicator of strength for flying-type exotic beasts.
If their speed couldn’t exceed Mach 1 at epic-quality, then that flying exotic beast’s talent and strength was nothing to be scared of. They could only belong to the weaker category of epic-quality exotic beasts.
On the other hand, exotic beasts whose speed could reach Mach 2 or higher at epic-quality were the rare “royalty”, with extremely high potential!
The flight speed of Zhang Che’s Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, for example, exceeded Mach 2 after rising to epic-quality. Taking only flight speed into consideration, there weren’t many exotic beasts who could compare with the dragon, even among high-tier epic-quality exotic beasts!
“Although the Purple Jade Condor is far from comparable to the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, it’s pretty good compared to the average exotic beast.”
Zhang Che didn’t overvalue the Purple Jade Condor’s improvement. In truth, his current main combat forces were the epic-quality pets and subdued beasts. Truthfully speaking, legend-quality beasts really weren’t very useful at this stage.
After looking through the Purple Jade Condor’s attributes, Zhang Che took out the Dark-Scaled Lizard Commander card and held it in his hand. Sweeping his gaze across it, the beast card’s new attributes were immediately displayed before him.

“The heck, is this a joke!?”
Zhang Che, who originally had a look of anticipation, nearly vomited a mouthful of blood when he saw the Dark-Scaled Lizard Commander’s attributes.
What was the meaning of this? So be it if the Purple Jade Condor didn’t get a new skill, it could be attributed to his bad luck. But the Dark-Scaled Lizard Commander did not get a new skill either!?
-Am I really that bad of a person? This is simply outrageous!-
With that, Zhang Che wasn’t the slightest bit interested in the Dark-Scaled Lizard Commander’s tiny increase in its other attributes.
He felt like his good luck was all used up when he went to Jingzhou. Otherwise, why would he encounter these two extremely rare shadowy exotic beasts that even the military had trouble eliminating?
With his luck all used up, his subdued beasts’ advancement actually gave them such a minor upgrade in strength. It seemed rather not worth it…
It was indeed not worth it. The Umbra Wind God Leopard was still a little bit away from an upgrade in level or quality after eating the two shadowy exotic beasts. Heavens knew what kind of fortuitous encounter Zhang Che needed to have to strengthen him, and his good luck was already all used up.
“I’m sleeping. This is really too tragic. I was still feeling a little excited. It suddenly vanished just like that…”
Zhang Che was depressed. He could only shut his eyes helplessly, trying to enter the land of dreams.
In his dream, Zhang Che saw those two subdued beasts had actually rose to epic-quality together. They slaughtered their way through groups of exotic beasts, showing off their impressive powers. However, he knew deep in his heart that these were all fake. Everything was but his fantasy.
Given those two beasts’ standards, they would only be average at best after advancing to epic-quality. How could they possibly slaughter their way around?
—
The next morning, Zhang Che sent Huang Tielan to school. She noticed his complexion seemed a little off, and she hurriedly asked, “What wrong? Did something happen?”
Huang Tielan found this very strange. Didn’t she successfully help Zhang Che level up two subdued beasts to mid-tier last night? Why did he look so unhappy?
Zhang Che shook his head slightly, sighing, “Let’s not bring it up. Although those two subdued beasts leveled up, there wasn’t any obvious increase in their strength. They can’t increase my overall strength at all. Looks like I still have to rely on those stronger subdued beasts.
“So, my Miss Tienan, you have to keep working hard to become an advanced beast card cultivator and become able to level up mid-tier legend-quality beast cards. That’ll be perfect, then.”
After hearing Zhang Che airing out his grievance, Huang Tielan pursed her lips and said, “Learn to be content, you! They’re only leveled up from three-stars to four-stars. Although their strength has increased, of course they can’t be compared to legendary, or even epic-quality subdued beasts!”
Huang Tielan had a point. Given Zhang Che’s current strength, how great of a difference was there between a three-star dark gold-quality subdued beast and a four-star dark gold-quality subdued beast?
Even so, Zhang Che thought helplessly, -The problem is that they didn’t just level up; even though their quality rose to legend-quality, their strength is still nothing noteworthy.-
After a short pause, Huang Tielan continued, “Also, an advanced beast card cultivator is unlike an intermediate one. It’s not like I can break through just because I want to. It’s really difficult. I think I’ll need at least two or three years to achieve that, and that is provided I’m learning every beast card cultivation fluid recipe from you. If it were any other beastmasters, they’d need at least a few times longer than that!”
Huang Tielan’s words made a lot of sense. The reason why she could become a beast card cultivator so quickly, and even improve to the level of intermediate beastmaster, was because aside from her amazing talent, she had the help of the cheat-like existence that was Zhang Che.
If she didn’t have the help of Zhang Che’s data eyes, she couldn’t improve so rapidly even if she was the most talented person in this field!
With a few years’ time, according to the speed at which Zhang Che’s pets and subdued beasts rose in quality, it was probably enough for them to rise from dark gold-quality to epic-quality, right?
In that case, it seemed a little too long. Some of his subdued beasts would be limited by their levels. At that time, they’d be stuck in dark gold or legend-quality, unable to advance to epic-quality.
Although he felt a little disappointed inside, Zhang Che didn’t show any of that on the outside. Instead, he showed a smile and encouraged Huang Tielan, “Then you have to keep working hard and surprise everyone! An advanced beast card cultivator who isn’t even thirty! You’d probably be the only one in the world to achieve that!”
“Of course! I’m destined to become the best beast card cultivator there is!” Huang Tielan raised her head proudly, her chest sticking out a little more, stirring a wave of heat inside Zhang Che when he saw her.
—
Zhang Che didn’t go anywhere on his own today. He acted as a driver, driving his mother and the others, playing host to Qu Wenjing’s parents as they played around in Bei Du City.
After all, Tian Xing City was ten thousand kilometers away from Bei Du City, and it wasn’t that safe to travel. Even though the Qu family had some small fortunes, they wouldn’t be so extravagant as to travel ten thousand kilometers for no rhyme or reason just to play at Bei Du City.
Obviously, the Qu family and the Sun family had reached a consensus regarding the wedding of their children. Zhang Che could even tell from their conversation that the wedding between his uncle Xi Wenshan and Qu Wenjing would be held around the end of the year.
This had left Zhang Che feeling envious. It made him firmer in his decision to ask his great aunt to make a trip to the Huang family after this matter was over.
It was about time for Zhang Che and Miss Tienan’s marriage to be up on the agenda, right?
Although the couple was still young, both not even twenty yet, Zhang Che was already an bachelor close to reaching his thirties from his past life in his heart.
Moreover, in an era as unique as the new age, due to the huge deaths in previous years, the government encouraged its people to get married and have kids early. Getting married at twenty years old was absolutely not considered too early.
—
That night, Huang Tielan didn’t come back home from school. Recently she had been busy with matters regarding the concoction of cultivation fluid and had taken a few days of leave. She had to stay a few days at school to make up for it.
After all, despite her having some privileges in school, as a student, she should try her best to stay in school if there was nothing going on.
Zhang Che was incredibly bored. He wasn’t interested in the entertainment activities of this world. He didn’t want to play chess with the elemental queen, either. That was purely looking to get tortured. So, he decided to go into the secret plane to explore a little.
The world of the secret plane was too vast. Zhang Che still had no idea what resources were produced inside. Was there nothing other than large amounts of spiritual herbs? Or was there something to be found? It was good for Zhang Che to explore, no matter what.
—
However, before he could proceed with his plan, Huang Juyun gave him a call.
-Did father-in-law confirm his target already?- Previously, Zhang Che had promised Huang Juyun to hunt an epic-quality exotic beast for him, giving him an epic-quality subdued beast to keep up appearances. It had been two days since then. He had probably decided on his target.
The Huang family’s information network wasn’t something Zhang Che could compare to. Surely they had a lot of news and information on powerful exotic beasts.
Indeed, when Zhang Che accepted the call, Huang Juyun didn’t stand on ceremony and came to the point directly, saying, “Xiaoche, I have chosen an epic-quality exotic beast. I’ll send the information to you in a bit. See when you’re free and make a trip there. I’ll send a team of high-tier beastmasters to help you.”
It was pitiful to see that as the current patriarch of the Huang family, someone with influence in the military, Huang Juyun actually didn’t have an epic-quality subdued beast even now. Although he wouldn’t go fight in the beast worlds personally, it felt shameful when compared to others.
His daughter possessed keen eyes and found a dragon among men as her significant other, and he was even willing to help Huang Juyun go hunt an epic-quality exotic beast. Naturally he hoped the matter would be done with as soon as possible.
Huang Juyun wouldn’t feel embarrassed about this or whatever. He would only feel proud that his future son-in-law could help him get an epic-quality subdued beast.
Zhang Che could hear the anticipation in Huang Juyun’s voice. He couldn’t help but smile. “I don’t have much going on right now, and it’s boring to stay at home. I’ll set off tomorrow, then. Get them to come meet up with me tomorrow.”
Although Zhang Che felt like puking at the thought of hunting exotic beasts previously, when he actually took it easy, he felt uncomfortable all over. Now that he had something to work towards, naturally he felt much better!
Moreover, hunting epic-quality exotic beasts were pretty exciting. It was completely different from massacring those garbage exotic beasts, who provided not the slightest sense of accomplishment.
Zhang Che didn’t reject Huang Juyun’s proposition to send a small team of high-tier beastmasters to help him. Although he didn’t think they would be of any help even if they went, it was always nice to have someone to chat with!
When the elemental queen engrossed herself into the profound world of Go, there was hardly any chance to talk to her. It truly felt a little lonely and cold.
“Why don’t you rest a few more days at home first? This matter isn’t urgent.”
Zhang Che pursed his lips. Huang Juyun wasn’t sincere with his words. Zhang Che could sense his father-in-law’s anticipation even though they were speaking through their personal terminals.
“It’s fine, Uncle Huang. I’m used to being busy. On the contrary, I feel uneasy doing nothing at home. Tell them to meet me at Bei Du Airport at 9 AM tomorrow. We’ll directly set off on Dijiang-hao.”
“That works. Uncle Huang is relying on you this time!”
—
The two ended their call. Zhang Che checked his personal terminal. Indeed, Huang Juyun had sent the information on their target over.
The target Huang Juyun had chosen was a metal-attributed epic-quality subdued beast. It was extremely powerful. Huang Juyun had designs on it previously, but he was worried the casualties might be high, and the matter was left at that.
Now that his prospective son-in-law had the power to hunt epic-quality exotic beasts, what was there to wait for? That epic-quality exotic beast wouldn’t always remain at the same place. If it went away, or someone else had killed it, he’d have no one to cry to.
“A metal-attributed epic-quality exotic beast, huh? It definitely won’t be weak. But I have two epic-quality combat forces, the Scarlet Flame Drake and the elemental queen, in addition to the scarlet and white sword. No matter how powerful it is, it shouldn’t be a problem to bring it down.”
Metal-attributed exotic beasts were the type that excelled at killing, not to mention it was epic-quality. One could imagine how powerful that exotic beast was.
However, Zhang Che smiled faintly when he thought of his strength, and he didn’t put the matter to heart.
As long as it wasn’t a divine-quality exotic beast, there wouldn’t be any beast that could possibly be a match for him! Zhang Che was very confident of that!
