Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 61 Betting on Dogs
"Thank you for your hard work, Elder Mo."

Lin Jing took the list and took a quick look at it. He felt that the Beastmaster Sect was indeed very powerful in terms of rare and exotic beasts.

He felt that any of these three would be a good pet to use as a foundation-building pet.

Tianyu Crane can be used as a flying mount, making travel convenient.

The dragon-lion is a large monster that looks more majestic than the royal squirrel.

Tongbi Fire Monkey... Lin Jing's eyes moved, isn't this Monkey Brother?
After reading it several times, Lin Jing had difficulty making a decision. He asked, "There's not much information on it. Does Elder Mo have any recommendations?"

"Ahem." Elder Mo coughed dryly, "These three are all good, but they all have some minor problems. I'll tell you about them and you can choose for yourself."

"For example, this Tianyuhe has an arrogant personality and doesn't like to be ridden by others."

"Not allowed to ride? What's the point of the contract if you are not allowed to ride?" Lin Jing frowned.

"This dragon lion, because he did not grow up in the sect, does not have a strong sense of belonging to the sect, and always likes to 'talk about spirit stones' every time he works."

"Disciple still likes pets with a spirit of dedication." Lin Jing looked at the pine leaf mouse dozing beside the bed.

With the precedent of the pine leaf rat "bringing money into the group", this dragon lion suddenly became boring.

"It has to be Brother Monkey." Lin Jing thought to himself.

Unexpectedly, Elder Mo added: "This Tongbi Fire Monkey has a special status and is a bit pampered. He is very greedy for enjoyment... He may need to be severely disciplined later."

Lin Jing: ???
"Elder... doesn't our sect have any normal pets?" It seems that the three people on this list are not easy to serve.

At this time, the pine leaf mouse opened its eyes and woke up. Lin Jing looked at it and found it more and more pleasing to the eye.

"There are still many pets with normal personalities... But the problem is that they have both dragon blood and fire attributes. Isn't this too restrictive?" Elder Mo laughed and said, "In fact, choosing a pet is just like choosing a wife. There is no such thing as a perfect one. We just make do with each other. Over time, we will get along better and better."

Lin Jing was still a little dissatisfied: "Are there only these three?"

Elder Mo hesitated for a moment and said, "That's not the case."

"These three are more suitable for you from the perspective of talent and potential."

"I learned from Elder Jiang, who is in charge of the sect's beasts, that there is actually another fire-attributed monster with dragon blood, but..."

"It's just a little weird. It's a dragon carp from Jiulong Peak that mutated into a carp with fire attributes!"

"Because of the mutation of its properties, it...is not good at swimming. Rather than swimming in the water, it prefers to soak in the hot spring like a salted fish."

"In this case, it will be even more impossible to use the Nine Dragon Waterfall to 'leap over the dragon gate' and complete the bloodline transformation."

"..."Lin Jing completely gave up the idea of ​​selecting a dragon-blood fire pet from the sect.

"Elder, it's still a long time before I reach the foundation-building stage. I'll go to Qianlong Academy and look in the outside world for a dragon-blood fire pet that's suitable for me." Lin Jing planned to look for a stone monkey with a warlike personality.

"Actually..." Elder Mo suddenly paused and said, "Actually, if you value the character of your pet more, this dragon carp would be a good choice."

"Compared to the other three, this dragon carp is not very intelligent and can't remember things. It's like a blank sheet of paper, so it's more suitable for a beastmaster to train."

"You can cultivate it in any direction you want!"

“If you still value potential…if you think about it from another perspective, it’s not bad.”

"The dragon carp is a very ancient dragon-blooded monster. Almost all of its members are water-attributed. Suddenly, a rebellious child mutated. This means that its ancestor... must have had a dragon beast with a very strong fire-attributed bloodline. Otherwise, it would not be possible for fire to suppress water after so many generations."

"At least in the Beast Taming Sect, there has never been an attempt to crossbreed dragon carp with fire-attributed monsters. In other words, its ancestral bloodline is untraceable and did not come from the intervention of the Beast Taming Sect. This is very likely."

"To put it in a broader sense, it's possible that its ancestor was a true flame dragon. It's just a bet that its bloodline is extraordinary. Given its situation, although it's difficult for it to make the leap, it may be possible to achieve a similar evolutionary effect and complete the bloodline transformation by cultivating it with the secret technique of the latent dragon." "If the bet is successful, maybe we can get a dragon pet with a stronger bloodline potential than the other three!"

Damn, gambler!

Hearing Elder Mo's words, Lin Jing fell silent for a moment, remembering that the other party had used his special physique to gamble on turning his pet into a rare beast.

Really... I like to try my luck.

This is not good behavior.

"How about it, do you want to bet?" Elder Mo gave an unfathomable smile.

Lin Jing also grinned and said, "Actually, there is another benefit to raising dragon carp."

"What?" Elder Mo was stunned.

"Compared to the Tianyu Crane and Tongbi Fire Monkey, who have a noble origin, and the Dragon Lion who only talks about 'Spirit Stones'... it is easier to raise."

"I just like this kind of pet that looks easy to raise!"

"Elder Mo, I've made a bet! Do you want to join me?" Lin Jing had no choice. It was true that this dragon carp looked more malleable.

And...he really wanted to personally train a pet that could "leap over the dragon gate" and complete the racial transformation.

Elder Mo's breathing quickened, and he said, "You are worthy of being my disciple!"

Next to him, the pine leaf mouse was silent. Two gamblers! Although its Glazed Immortal Eyes... seemed to be obtained through gambling.

……

After Lin Jing chose his pet, Elder Mo went to help get it.

If you choose the Sky-Feather Crane, Dragon-Lion, or Tongbi Fire Monkey, Lin Jing might have to spend some time talking before he can sign a contract with them.

However, the mutated flame dragon carp mentioned by Elder Mo is only at the third level of Qi training. Its cultivation level is not as high as Lin Jing's, and its spiritual intelligence has not even been opened. Therefore, it is completely up to the sect to deal with it. The dragon carp itself has no idea at all.

On that day, Elder Mo brought the fire dragon carp over.

He used his magic power to control a round glass fish tank floating beside him, with the dragon carp inside.

The Flame Dragon Carp was just as its name suggested, its entire body was as red as flames and very gorgeous. However, its dull eyes made Lin Jing certain that it did not have any spiritual intelligence.

"Elder, why does it smell so good?" Lin Jing looked at the fish tank that Elder Mo had put down, and saw that it was bubbling and boiling inside.

It looks like a fire dragon carp is breathing fire in the water.

"Elder Jiang said that this guy still can't control the power of fire and always almost boils himself. This water is naturally fish soup."

Lin Jing: ???
Damn, this isn't just lack of intelligence, this is mental retardation.

After the contract is signed, will it also mutate into the rare beast "Boiled Fish" like the legendary "Bai Xiang Rabbit"?

Elder Mo said, "Keep an eye on the pine leaf rat, don't let it drink secretly, and don't drink secretly yourself. In my Beast Taming Sect, eating fellow disciples is a taboo! Don't treat it as a spare ingredient."

"That's the Devil Sect's behavior!"

Lin Jing said: "We definitely won't drink secretly. We are not that hungry yet."
