The pelts of low-level Demonized Beasts were essentially worthless.
Sanctuary officials only purchased pelts from Demonized Beasts of the Fourth Layer and above, while the transactions among Awakeners set a slightly lower standard, but they still looked down on the pelts from First or Second Layer Demonized Beasts.
Whether they could defeat such beasts was an unknown, but the truth was that there were too many of these creatures, and their pelts were not consumable goods. Most of the pelts from the First or Second Layer Demonized Beasts fell into the category of 'trash no one wanted.'
Yet He Qingqing saw this as a business opportunity.
Indeed, such pelts didn't offer much defense in and of themselves, and the more capable Awakeners all preferred to wear leather armor made from the pelts of advanced Demonized Beasts.
