Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 125 They couldn't be sold even when they were alive, so there's no point in talking about them now that they're dead.
After browsing the black market, it will be almost time for the pet market to open.

Ye Bai yawned several times in a row, and then drank some of the Sunflower King's honey as a refreshing drink.

As soon as the sun rose above the ground, the entire pet market began to bustle with activity.

This place is both a pet market and a food market.

Many strange beasts are butchered here and cut into pieces of meat, which are then sold on the spot.

The entire pet market reeked of blood, and pools of blood were scattered on the ground.

Many people use trucks to transport goods, creating a bustling scene.

Ahead, some people were selling tiger chicken eggs, while others were selling snake-headed, chicken-bodied, snake-tailed chicken eggs.

In Yandong Province, gourmets like to buy a whole snake-tailed chicken to stew, which is said to be very delicious.

At this moment, since the intelligence system did not specify the exact location of the black lizard, Ye Bai had no choice but to search for it one by one.

Ye Bai then arrived at a stall.

The stall displayed many beast cards, each sealing a severely wounded and dying beast.

After capturing exotic beasts, the beast tamers would bring them here to sell for a good price if they felt they had no use for them.

These beast cards are second-hand; they're very worn out. I estimate that after just one more use, the storage space on the beast cards will completely collapse.

However, these strange beasts will burst out of the beast cards and wreak havoc.

The stall owner was an old man who was only forty years old. He wore a black eye patch over one of his eyes, and his face was covered with scars, making him look unusually fierce.

He only has three fingers on one of his hands.

"Any exotic beasts you fancy? Don't worry, I can help you deal with them."

"Just tell me what part you need. My pet ghost head knife is no joke."

The Ghost Head Knife is like a larger kitchen knife, with five pure iron rings on its body. It makes a loud clanging sound with the slightest movement.

Its eyes are located on the blade; this beast possesses the attributes of gold and demon.

Only ancient objects imbued with spiritual power could potentially evolve into such a strange beast.

"Anyone interested? If not, don't block my business."

The stall owner's voice was hoarse and unpleasant, like a leaky bellows. After seeing that Ye Bai had no desire to buy, he immediately started to drive the customer away.

Is this all you have?

Ye Bai asked the stall owner.

The stall owner raised an eyebrow: "You know what, there really is."

"I originally had a top-quality cargo here, but I was too heavy-handed when I captured it."

"I killed him instantly."

"It was originally a fourth-order black lizard that could transform into a dragon, but I used a little too much force and it died just like that."

The stall owner felt a pang of heartache just thinking about it.

Even a severely injured or dying beast is more valuable than a dead one.

When some strange beasts die, they produce foul-smelling gases, which makes them worthless.

"But I'm sure he just died recently."

The stall owner quickly added a sentence, and only then did Ye Bai see a large black lizard with golden eyes appear in the iron cage behind the stall owner.

Its eyes were wide open in anger, as if it were still alive.

The black lizard has a wound the size of a bowl on its head.

Black blood was gushing from the wound.

The stall owner was right; the black lizard had only been dead for a short time, and its blood hadn't even clotted yet.

Moreover, his entire body was filled with a fierce expression.

Its entire body is covered with black scales, each of which looks extremely hard.

"I originally thought lizards would live longer, but when I slashed it on the head with my demon-head knife, it turned into this."

The stall owner fainted in the toilet.

The price difference between a living and a dead mythical beast is like night and day.

"Here's what we'll do. You know the value of the black giant lizard that's about to transform into a dragon."

"I won't cheat you, one million Alliance Coins."

"Take it if you want."

The stall owner wore an expression as if his father had died, looking heartbroken, but secretly he was laughing to himself.

Finally, I've run into a sucker.

Ye Bai knew that the price was outrageous, and if he bought it, he would be a sucker.

"No, no, you said it was preparing to transform into a dragon, but it hasn't transformed into a dragon yet."

"And it was a dead black monitor lizard."

"The price is too high, I'm not going to be ripped off."

Upon hearing Ye Bai's words, the stall owner knew he had met an expert.

"How about this, a flat price of 200,000 Alliance Coins."

The stall owner gritted his teeth and offered this price.

If this thing can't be sold, it'll be stuck with us.

This price is already close to the cost price.

"Two hundred thousand Alliance Coins, that's the price of being alive."

"If your black monitor lizard were alive, I would buy it without hesitation."

"But a dead black monitor lizard is worthless."

At this moment, Ye Bai used his Eye of Insight to determine that there was a mist on the belly of the black giant lizard.

"Moreover, the black monitor lizard is a scavenging beast; once it begins to die, the bacteria in its gut will start to multiply."

"A large amount of gas will accumulate in the black monitor lizard's abdomen, stomach, and intestines." "Under the pressure of the gas, the black monitor lizard's body will continuously expand."

"Once the critical value is reached, the black giant lizard's body will explode like a whale exploding."

"The longer the interval, the higher the risk."

"I'll buy it for 20,000 Alliance Coins, otherwise you'll be stuck with it."

Ye Bai watched as the stall owner's lips twitched, and he remained silent for a long time, clearly angered.

Do you think everything I said is wrong?

"You're an old hunter, you should be familiar with the phenomenon I'm talking about."

"Just like now, suddenly there was a bang."

"The black monitor lizard will explode right behind you, and countless pieces of flesh, intestines, liver, and kidneys will be hanging on your body."

"By then, will the black monitor lizard still have any value?"

Ye Bai smiled.

The stall owner was speechless after Ye Bai's words.

He tried to open his mouth several times, but then swallowed back down.

Ye Bai could tell that the stall owner was hesitating, so Ye Bai added another sentence.

"You need to understand that once this opportunity is gone, it's gone forever."

"They couldn't be sold while they were alive, so there's no point in talking about them after they're dead."

"Don't even think about eating it yourself."

"The flesh and blood of lizard-like creatures are acidic and tough, making them practically inedible."

"I'll just buy it to do some research."

"If you're not going to sell it, then sell it. If not, I'll find another shop."

Ye Bai said casually.

These words placed a great psychological burden on the stall owner.

Ye Bai put his hands on his head, whistled, and prepared to leave: "Moreover, after a while, once the black giant lizard's corpse stiffens, we won't even have 20,000 Alliance Coins left."

"You should think about it carefully yourself."

Ye Bai's words sounded like a warning bell in the stall owner's mind.

I can't let this black monitor lizard go to waste; it took quite a bit of effort to capture it in the first place.

As fate would have it, the Ghost Head Knife stabbed the black monitor lizard in the skull, instantly killing it.

"and many more."

The stall owner finally came to his senses and called out to Ye Bai, "Fine, 20,000 Alliance Coins, I won't be responsible for delivery."

Ye Bai didn't want the stall owner to deliver the goods either, as that would easily reveal his identity.

“If you’re not responsible for delivery, you’ll have to pay extra, and I can’t let myself be taken advantage of, right?”

Ye Bai said with a smile, which made the stall owner furious. He was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at the stall owner.

I have never seen such a shameless person!
Although he was furious with Ye Bai, the stall owner also realized that Ye Bai had him under control.

He tightly grasped his desire to sell the black giant lizard, turning himself from an active player into a passive one, putting him in a weak position, and now he was being led by the nose by Ye Bai.

Left with no other choice, the stall owner could only nod.

"Yes, but you can only choose these."

The stall owner pointed to the three beast cards in front of him and said.

Ye Bai picked up the beast card and examined it carefully.

A sealed Eight Treasures Chicken, a natural pairing with Seven Treasures Mushroom, is unexpectedly found in the pet market.

Its meat is extremely delicious. Even pet owners who don't know how to cook can make an unparalleled delicacy by stewing the Eight Treasures Chicken.

Eight Treasures Chicken is very popular among gourmets.

Ye Bai just couldn't understand why the stall owner had Eight Treasures Chicken.

Instead of capturing and selling this rare and exotic beast, they gave away the Eight Treasures Chicken as a free gift.

Am I crazy, or are you crazy?

The remaining two beast cards were both very ordinary exotic beasts, and they didn't taste good, so Ye Bai didn't choose them.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Bai took the beast card containing the Eight Treasures Chicken.

"Then we're even."

Ye Bai entered the beast cage, where a pungent, foul odor emanated from it. The closer he got, the more pungent the smell became.

This is because when the black monitor lizard died, bacteria in its intestines began to multiply rapidly, leading to this.

The stall owner crossed his arms and looked coldly at Ye Bai, believing that Ye Bai would never put the black giant lizard into the pet space.

That black giant lizard was a fourth-tier pet beast; even I had a hard time capturing it.

Judging from the voice just now, the voice under the mask spoke clearly and distinctly, sounding very mature.

However, the stall owner still managed to sense Ye Bai's true strength through his high-level pet master abilities.

A second-tier pet master.

"If this person can't fit the black giant lizard into the pet space and wants my help, I'll definitely raise the price."

The stall owner secretly pondered.

But when he saw Ye Bai put the black giant lizard away, he was stunned.

What a huge pet space! This is only a low-level pet master, yet he's so powerful.

The size of the pet's space determines one's potential to become a pet master.

The greater the space, the higher the potential. However, this testing method will only become widespread after university, with the aim of not undermining students' self-confidence and thus affecting their college entrance examination.
