The Medallion novel Chapter 95

The shadow that punched a big hole through the iron plate was actually the tail of the beast. The soft tail suddenly stiffened like a sharp and long stick. It was hard enough to punch a big hole through the iron plate in an instant. Even a three-star spirit-manipulated beast would have a hard time doing that.

The beast evaluators were surprised by its hidden ability. Apparently, they had realized that they made a mistake in their evaluation. The spirit-manipulated beast had a special ability that they were not able to foresee.

Seeing Rocky prove that his speculation was right, Mia smiled in admiration but tried her best to hide her emotions.

"This beast is very strong. I want it so bad. Five thousand gold coins!" one of the customers near them immediately bid for the beast as soon as they saw the strong power it possessed.

"This beast has the potential to be at least a three-star spirit-manipulated beast. Seven thousand gold coins!"

"Ten thousand gold coins!"

The price began to rise very quickly. Every time someone called a higher price, the beast evaluators' faces grew longer and longer.

Until finally, a man won the bid with fifteen thousand gold coins and got the beast.

The beast evaluators who reeked of arrogance earlier suddenly wore their straight faces. They were so embarrassed that their beast evaluation ability was lower than a beast evaluator at the first grade. But they did not believe that a beast evaluator at the first grade could be more skillful than them, knowing that they were all at the fourth grade.

"It was nothing more than a lucky guess," one of the beast evaluators shouted as he pointed at Rocky.

Rocky smiled calmly and said, "Are you still not convinced?"

The beast evaluators looked at each other as they were all left speechless.

At that moment, someone rushed towards them and whispered to Tobin. Whatever that person said made his face turn serious.

"Is there something wrong?" Mia immediately asked Tobin as she saw the serious look on his face.

"Do you remember that time last month when I reported to you that we would hold a beast evaluation competition this month? I told you that many beast evaluating masters from the top beast farms and beast evaluating families of different countries would join the competition. That competition was set to be held today. I thought you wouldn't be available to come so I did not inform you ahead of time. Now, what I did was I asked Mr. Weldon to hold the line," Tobin answered at once.

"Yes, I remember. Would that be the competition for the Top Beast Evaluator's Jade Cup?" Mia said as she recalled from her memory. Because she had been busy with the training of the royal spirit manipulators in the dragon field, when Tobin asked her about the competition last month, she just told him that he was in full charge of the preparations for the competition such as handling personnel to accommodate the masters of beast evaluating and the securing of the venue and time of the competition.

"Yes. Our Super Beast Farm had won the Top Beast Evaluator's Jade Cup five times. If everything goes really well, we will win it again this time. However, Mr. Weldon sent someone earlier to tell me that the Rare Beast Farm from the Roaring Flame Empire had sent a seventh-grade beast evaluating master who had beaten a lot of sixth-grade masters. Now he had come here to our Super Beast Farm. If we lose, the Top Beast Evaluator's Jade Cup would be brought home by the Rare Beast Farm. The Rare Beast Farm has always been our deadliest rival. In the entire Wild Spirit Land, the Rare Beast Farm is the only farm which is capable to compete against the Super Beast Farm. If the Rare Beast Farm wins the Top Beast Evaluator's Jade Cup, they will turn their noses at us. And it will completely ruin the untarnished reputation of our Super Beast Farm. We never expected the Rare Beast Farm to find a master. I wonder where they found this beast evaluator who was at the seventh grade. I hear some people say that he was as skillful as Mr. Weldon," Tobin said apprehensively.

After hearing those words, Mia couldn't help but frown. She wasn't very interested in beast evaluation. The only reason why she came was to see if everything went well as she had expected. She felt it was her responsibility because the Super Beast Farm was one of the industries of the Lan Clan while all the things regarding beast evaluation were all taken care of by Weldon. Weldon was a follower of the Lan Clan who also used to follow her grandfather a long time ago. He was a respectful senior follower from the Lan Clan. Weldon was also a master of the Beast Evaluation Skill. In the entire Holy Dragon Empire, only Priest Dean's beast evaluation ability was better than Weldon's.

So since Weldon was worried about the competition, it meant the beast evaluating master the Rare Beast Farm sent must be very powerful.

"Where are they right now?" Mia immediately asked Tobin because the Top Beast Evaluator's Jade Cup was vital to the reputation of the Super Beast Farm. As the eldest daughter of the Lan Clan, though she might not be much of a help for the Super Beast Farm in winning the competition, she was supposed to be present during the competition.

"At the third floor," Tobin replied.

"Would you like to come with me? It would be a spectacle for rookies like you. The ordinary people never had the chance to watch such competition so you must seize this opportunity," Mia deliberately said that to Rocky to tease him.

"A beast evaluating competition? Sounds great! Alright, as a rookie, I'd like to watch this big competition. Ha ha ha!" Rocky laughed and nodded to Mia as he was already interested in the competition just by eavesdropping on the conversation between Mia and Tobin.

Tobin then led Mia and Rocky to the third floor of the Super Beast Farm. The beast evaluators who disliked Rocky followed them to the third floor.

They soon arrived at the third floor of the Super Beast Farm where they heard people talking behind a closed door.

After Tobin who was ahead of them opened the door for Mia and Rocky, they saw that there were dozens of people inside the room. They could immediately feel that the atmosphere in the room was extremely intense.

Rocky looked around the room and saw that it was very spacious. There were several tables with people standing behind them. Every table had a flag beside it that represented whichever force they came from.

A cage was put in the center of the room with a baby spirit-manipulated beast inside it. Though it was a baby beast, it already had a strong momentum. Its face resembled a lion's face while its legs were as long as a wolf's. With its strong body, sharp teeth and claws, Rocky could tell that it was not an ordinary spirit-manipulated beast.

At that moment, there were two people in the cage walking around the baby spirit-manipulated beast to observe it very carefully. One of them was over sixty years old with white hair and beard. His eyes were very sharp. He emitted the smell of a spirit manipulator at the higher grades of the Heavenly Stage. The other one in a long robe was dumpy and was about forty years old with a handlebar mustache. He rubbed his mustache as he walked slowly around the beast to inspect it with his sharp eyes.

"Did the competition already begin?" Mia asked as she looked at the cage. The older one in the cage was Weldon who represented the Super Beast Farm, a famous beast evaluator at the seventh grade from the Holy Dragon Empire. His status in beast evaluating could be compared to the status of General Marcia in beast manipulating.

The other beast evaluators who were watching the competition around the two of them were also from different top beast farms, beast evaluating families, and sects. Mia and Rocky could tell from the looks they had on their faces that they had all lost.

The dumpty suddenly took out an Eight-trigram Mirror. He bit his thumb and wrote something on the surface of the mirror with his blood. He then placed the mirror closer to the baby spirit-manipulated beast. The baby spirit-manipulated beast immediately reflected light back into the Eight-trigram Mirror which then reflected different light.
