800 Million!!

Locke quickly picked up his phone and entered the website he had created in the black market.

Sometimes, ignorance is bliss.

Locke was instantly shocked by the contents on the page.

The message in the lower left corner showed 9,999 + messages.

Locke clicked on it to take a look.

Almost all of them were inquiries on how to conduct the purchase.

Locke could not help but get excited.

He did not expect so many people to be interested in his products.

It had even alarmed the higher-ups of the black market.

Locke ignored the most of the messages.

Instead, he went ahead to open the message from a user who claimed themselves to be the owner of the black market.

This was the content in the message:

"Greetings, dear user, we are from the Treasure Tower's Chamber of Commerce. We would like to express our great interest in your Beast Eggs whose quality can be determined prior to being hatched."

"We are willing to purchase all your stock of Beast Eggs according to the price you have quoted."

"If possible, we hope that you would divulge your method of determining the Beast Egg's quality to the Chamber of Commerce as well. We promise that you will not be disappointed by the price we offer."

"If you are interested in cooperating with us, you can choose to contact me at this number."

At the bottom of the content, there was the number of the person who claimed to be the owner of the black market.

Locke felt that the user was more or less exaggerating. They had such a ridiculous name, after all.

Locke did not know whether the user was trying to attract attention or whether they were the real deal.

However, once Locke saw the official certification, he immediately understood.

It seemed that it was a real account that was registered by the black market's higher-ups and handed down to an employee to handle.

Realizing this, Locke no longer had doubts about the message's authenticity.

It was a good deal, and Locke saw no reason to decline their generous offer.

With that, Locke dialed the phone number that was listed.

After a brief period of waiting.

The call connected.

"Hello, may I know who you are?"

A deep and gravitating male's voice rang out from the phone. It was a pleasant voice, and it gave the impression that he could be trusted.

"I am the owner of the Beast Eggs."

Locke replied indifferently.

"So it's you, sir. Have you decided to cooperate with the Treasure Tower's Chamber of Commerce?"

The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became high-pitched.

"Yes, I plan to sell all the Beast Eggs to you."

"But as for the method I use to know in advance what kind of Battle Beasts would be hatched, I don't plan to sell it."

Locke added.

"Yes, sir. We will pay you 825 million federal coins for this purchase. If you are satisfied, we can immediately carry out the transaction." The person on the other end of the phone responded.

"Okay, you can proceed with the transfer. I will personally protect the Beast Eggs and deliver them to a designated location. Then, you can go and collect them."

Upon mentioning this, the person on the other end of the phone suddenly paused.

Then, he chuckled and responded, "Alright sir. We can carry out the transaction in this manner if you insist, but honestly speaking, this is a first for us."

"Although this is the first time we've worked together, we believe in your credibility, sir."

"We will accept your conditions this time. Should you need anything in the future, you can contact the Treasure Tower's Chamber of Commerce at any time. As long as you mention my name, our Chamber of Commerce will definitely give you a huge discount."

"Please take note, sir. My name is Castan."

As they spoke, Locke began to view his ability to detect the Beast Egg's quality with greater importance.

He did not expect the other party to be so interested in his batch of Beast Eggs.

It seemed that many people had been gone bankrupt over their poor luck.

Having a Beast Egg that produced confirmed results was undoubtedly a desirable purchase for many consumers.

'If someone were to learn that I possess this heaven-defying ability, especially by someone as weak like me, I would probably be kidnapped and forced to inspect Beast Egg's qualities every day.' 

'This is a major secret, one I should be careful in disclosing my identity.'

'However, it's fortunate that the Chamber of Commerce has accepted my conditions.'

'It looks like I really need to keep a low profile in the future. The Beastmaster System is is too logic-defying.'

'If people were to find out about it, even the Federation's higher-ups would arrest me without hesitation.'

'It looks like I have to keep this a secret no matter what.'

'I need to gain power.'

'I need to grow to the point where even if the whole world knows about my secret, they won't dare to lay a finger on me.'

Locke swore to himself, "I'll work hard to become stronger."

'I want the whole world to remember my name. I want to stand at the top of this world.'

Upon these thoughts, Locke's motivation instantly shot to the roof.

...

Soon after...

Locke had received a message. It was from the Chamber of Commerce. His funds had been transferred.

It was exactly 825 million coins.

Looking at the huge sum of money he had just received, Locke's heart leapt with joy for quite some time.

He would soon be able to buy the materials needed to evolve Body Tempering to the first phase of the Immortal Dragon God's Body.

Locke was looking forward to cultivating the first phase of the Immortal Dragon God's Body so that he could become more powerful.

Locke found a merchant that sold Silver-tier Dragon Crystal Cores and Silver-tier Dragon Essences.

Without hesitation, he clicked 'buy'.

[ Click confirm ]

[ Payment successful. ]

All that was left now was for the merchant to deliver the materials to his front door.

Following that, Locke sent a message to Castan.

He informed him of the time and place of the transaction.

Then, Locke took the Beast Eggs and left his bedroom.

...

Locke's was racking his brain on ways to earn Function Points.

He had previously managed to accumulate 100 Function Points with great difficulty, but he had used them all to evolve Lil' White.

It had taken a considerable effort for Locke to obtain the Function Points.

He brought up the Beastmaster System.

Locke searched for ways to quickly obtain Function Points.

Before long, Locke had discovered a very convenient method.

After obtaining three days, he would be the first seat of the federation's unified enrollment.

[ Obtain the first seat in the Federation's Unified Student Assessments that will occur within the next three days. ]

[ You will be rewarded with 100 Function Points. ]

Upon reading the details, Locke instantly chuckled. He was confident in his current abilities.

He believed that with his strength, he would easily obtain first place in the examination.

Moreover, the city Locke was located in was only a small city.

There were not many freakish geniuses.

As such, it was very easy for Locke to stand out in his city.

For example, his school principal had already reported Locke's details to the Federation's Advanced Beastmaster Academy.

That was because every student who had hatched a rose gold divine Battle Beast was highly valued.

Especially by the Federation's Advanced Beastmaster Academy.

The academy, which specialized in cultivating high-level Beastmaster talents, specialized in recruiting geniuses like Locke.

After all, they believed that these geniuses can only use their full potential under their guidance.

Only then would the geniuses truly display their talents.
