Chapter 130 - Intensive Training
The freshman competition at Beastmaster University was set to begin its preliminaries in two days. When it came to the preliminaries, Lu Ran was confident there wouldn’t be any issues.
After all, there’s no need to defeat the examiner; it’s enough just to have one’s strength acknowledged.
With the prowess of Sudden Death King and Captain Doofus, getting stuck at this stage seemed highly unlikely.
However, the main competition was where Lu Ran needed to direct his focus. By now, the rewards for the freshman competition at Beastmaster University had already been made public.
Aside from a large number of crystal coins, the resources being offered were enviable enough to stir jealousy even among second and third-generation beastmasters.
The first-place reward included 1 million crystal coins and a King Species familiar egg from an ascension realm with an unknown species, attribute, and gender.
Second place came with 1 million crystal coins and a Treasure-class resource known as the Ethereal Flower. The Ethereal Flower was a resource capable of granting familiars a second attribute, with the potential to awaken a space-type attribute. This made it incredibly rare.
Just like Trait Crystals, which could awaken second, third, or even fourth attributes in familiars, such specialized resources only dropped in Hell-difficulty secret realms. Most were Rare resources, but those capable of awakening something as powerful as space-type attributes were typically Treasure-class resources.
Since awakening a new attribute didn’t confer any innate species talents and merely granted an additional attribute, most beastmasters preferred fusing traits instead.
However, if one were to compare Rare attributes like time or space with traits, any beastmaster would undoubtedly choose the time or space attributes without hesitation, making this reward particularly enticing.
For third place, the reward consisted of 600,000 crystal coins, a Superior-Champion species familiar cub, and two chances to select a Trait Crystal or beastmaster skill within designated parameters. Fourth place was similar, but only included one chance to select a Trait Crystal or beastmaster skill.
