The saleswoman figured that with Fang Mu’s spatial spiritual instrument, he was certainly suited to explore the luxury Guardian Beast district, where the average price exceeded a hundred thousand Dragon Rising Coins.
The Treasure Appraisal Area was merely an afterthought she mentioned.
Every time Dinghai Mall received a large new shipment, the appraisers simply couldn’t keep up.
Intermediate Appraisers were responsible for the second and third floors, while areas above the third floor were handled by Senior Appraisers.
Jr. Appraisers, responsible for the first floor, often encountered Guardian Beasts and spiritual materials that they had trouble appraising.
And Dinghai Mall didn’t want to waste its precious Senior Appraisers on first-floor merchandise.
So, these hard-to-appraise items identified by the Jr. Appraisers were all dumped together into the Treasure Appraisal Area.
Unfortunately, the reputation of Dinghai Mall’s Treasure Appraisal Area wasn’t good.
Even Jr. Appraisers had to pass a professional exam.
Every appraiser employed by the Dinghai Mall emerged as one of the best in the industry.
Much of the merchandise that these Jr. Appraisers had difficulty with usually had little value.
When the Treasure Appraisal Area was first established in Jinghai Mall, it was quite a sensation.
But over time, after many people suffered losses, the Treasure Appraisal Area informally became referred to as the “Garbage Zone”.
Fang Mu had originally had over seventy thousand Dragon Rising Coins, but just spent over four thousand.
Given Fang Mu’s current finances, he couldn’t afford to shop in the first floor Guardian Beast luxury district.
So, the Treasure Appraisal Area was Fang Mu’s best option.
If there were any overlooked items in the Treasure Appraisal Area, Fang Mu’s Eye of Omniscience would find them.
He wouldn’t have to face the risk of running out of funds.
Instead of continuing to sort through the common-grade Guardian Beasts which had all been appraised once by the Jr. Appraisers, he might as well take a look at the Treasure Appraisal Area.
“I’m rather interested in the Treasure Appraisal Area. Could you show me around there!”
Seeing the high-interest look on Fang Mu’s face, the saleswoman couldn’t help but regret having even mentioned the Treasure Appraisal Area.
The ones who usually found valuable items in the Treasure Appraisal Area were well-traveled adventurers.
Or even talented appraisers.
Even though the young man in front of her wore a Jinghai High School for Beast Masters uniform, indicating his high status among young people.
Once he entered the Treasure Appraisal Area, it was likely he would lose however much he spent.
But, the saleswoman couldn’t voice a warning to Fang Mu.
If her superiors or anyone else were to find out, she would lose her end-of-year bonus at the very least.
Or at worst, she might lose her fairly decent job entirely.
Using Dinghai Mall’s internal transportation service, the attendant quickly led Fang Mu to the Treasure Appraisal Area.
The Treasure Appraisal Area had just finished receiving a fresh shipment, so this should have been the busiest time.
But only around thirty people were leisurely wandering in the over 3,000 square meters Treasure Appraisal Area.
Some of these individuals were even sales assistants accompanying customers.
Out of these thirty or so people, six or seven were gathered around a cage, oohing and aahing at a red-haired monkey wagging its tail inside the cage.
The monkey would occasionally bare its teeth, spraying brilliant sparks from its mouth.
It shook its long tail against the cage, making an iron-like clattering sound, giving the impression that its tail was made of iron.
It was evident that these patrons were quite interested in this Fire Monkey.
Yet, Fang Mu didn’t use his Eye of Omniscience to look at this Fire Monkey, instead, turning his gaze elsewhere.
This Fire Monkey was a fiery red and looked intimidating, however, the brighter the fur of a Fire Monkey, the more temperamental they are and the higher the chance of their going berserk.
This Fire Monkey’s current calmness was most likely due to a tranquillizer.
If anyone were to buy this monkey, they would likely soon realise that it was not suitable for a contract.
Unless this Beast Master is willing to expend a substantial amount of spiritual power to restrain the Tempered Monkey.
And even with such measures, once the Tempered Monkey breaks through to the Silver Stage, it will become so furious that it will lose consciousness.
Even if, by virtue of the contract, it won’t harm the Beast Master, it will be very difficult to obey the Beast Master’s commands.
Years of diligent study have given Fang Mu a keen insight and vast knowledge.
Dinghai Mall has rules that non-partners cannot give each other advice.
If violated, one would be placed on the mall’s blacklist.
Therefore, Fang Mu didn’t remind these customers.
If they are unaware of even this common knowledge regarding beasts and hoped to make a fortune from picking up a bargain,
It is better for them to learn a lesson.
Fang Mu allowed his mind to roam.
He started to casually skim through the copper-grade beasts in the Treasure Appraisal Area.
The data provided by the Eye of Omniscience clearly marked out the defects of the beasts.
Just as Fang Mu thought he had nearly scoured the entire animal species beast section without any findings,
He suddenly came across a set of data that interested him greatly.
[Beast Name]: Aromatherapy Rabbit
[Beast Species]: Lop-eared/Long-haired Rabbit Species
[Beast Level]: Copper-grade (2/10)
[Beast Element]: Wood
[Beast Potential]: Silver
[Beast Quality]: Standard Quality
Skill:
[Fragrance]: It can absorb the effect of the flowers it eats, amplify these effects through digestion, then convert it into a fragrance through its fur, resulting in the release of the flower’s effect.
Evolutionary Path:
?: Fairy Rabbit, ?: Thorny Flower Rabbit, ?: Budding Flower Rabbit
(Excessive fear, severe stress reaction, and moderate gastrointestinal injury.)
The appearance of this data immediately excited two lines of thought in Fang Mu.
Firstly, this Aromatherapy Rabbit is a perfect match with the Red Jade Mountain Tea.
The Aromatherapy Rabbit can consume the flowers of the Red Jade Mountain Tea using its skill [Fragrance], then amplify and convert the effects of the Red Jade Mountain Tea into a fragrance.
The blood-enhancing effect of the Red Jade Mountain Tea’s flowers is several times that of the leaves.
As soon as Fang Mu can provide enough life energy for the Red Jade Mountain Tea to evolve through Blood Aged Wine,
This Aromatherapy Rabbit can be of great help to him.
The Aromatherapy Rabbit consuming the Red Jade Mountain Tea’s flowers is also beneficial in promoting its ranking.
Just for this reason alone, Fang Mu is determined to buy this Aromatherapy Rabbit.
The other attractive point for Fang Mu is that the Aromatherapy Rabbit’s evolutionary path includes the Fairy Rabbit.
Whenever a beast’s evolution path has the term ‘Fairy’ in it, it indicates that the beast has awakened its Fairy Bloodline and has the potential to transform into a Fairy.
Fairy Beasts are a bloodline that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the mighty Dragon Race.
To evolve into a Fairy Rabbit, a substantial amount of Flower Jade is needed.
Only floral beasts that have birthed a Flower Spirit can produce Flower Jade.
Red Jade Mountain Tea is a floral beast that holds the potential to give birth to a Flower Spirit.
Having the potential is one thing, being able to provide sufficient life energy to aid its evolution and improvement is another.
Blood Aged Wine can induce the evolution of beasts but cannot supply the life energy required by beasts.
That’s why Fang Mu, at this point, hasn’t found a way to awaken the Flower Spirit in the Red Jade Mountain Tea, let alone help the Aromatherapy Rabbit evolve into a Fairy Rabbit.
But having hope is better than being without hope.
