The Medallion Chapter 97 The New Quality

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Nobody knew that Rocky's confidence actually came from the detailed information of the Sirius Lion he

read in the Beast Encyclopedia. He compared it with Carter's evaluation and found that the Beast

Encyclopedia had one more quality listed on it that Carter hadn't mentioned.

That one particular quality was so unusual that even Carter, an experienced beast evaluator, was not

able to figure it out. The others' capabilities were all inferior to Carter's, so they all supported his

evaluation.

Unbeknownst to them, Carter would always cheat in every chance he got, which was why they were no

match for him. However, Carter had no advantage against Rocky, who knew the Beast Encyclopedia

thoroughly by heart.

Since none of the beast evaluators could identify the quality, Rocky thought that it would be

unconvincing if he were to just tell them, so he decided to display it before them.

Thus, under the watchful eyes of the beast evaluators, Rocky entered the cage. He looked around and

sat cross-legged in front of the Sirius Lion. He then commenced with the Magical Evaluation Skill. A

triangular light immediately emerged at the Sirius Lion's feet and ascended. At this point, different lights

representing its qualities appeared.

All the beast evaluators looked at each other in astonishment. They were stunned because it turned out

that the Beast Evaluation Skill that Rocky used was the same as Carter's.

"That's the Radiance Evaluation Skill... Why does he know the Beast Evaluation Skill of my master?"

Carter's face grew serious as he recognized the Beast Evaluation Skill that Rocky was using. It mainly

followed the same pattern of his Beast Evaluation Skill that he learned from his master. The only

difference was that Rocky directly applied the Radiance Evaluation Skill while he, on the other hand,

was prone to using the Eight-trigram Mirror as a medium for it. By contrast, it now seemed as if Rocky

was more skillful than he was in the display of the Radiance Evaluation Skill. As for Carter, he couldn't

generate the Radiance Evaluation Skill without the assistance of the Eight-trigram Mirror.

Though Carter represented the Rare Beast Farm, he learned the exquisite skills of beast evaluation

from a reputable master. The Radiance Evaluation Skill was the skill that was incredibly unique to his

master and his master's disciples. It made use of the lights of qualities to evaluate spirit-manipulated

beasts. Therefore, Carter felt it strange that the Beast Evaluation Skill Rocky used was quite like the

Radiance Evaluation Skill. He remembered that his master once told him that the Radiance Evaluation

Skill was originally created by their ancestral grandmaster who had went through the Wild Spirit Land

alone. And although there were many imitators, it was next to impossible to fully emulate the Radiance

Evaluation Skill.

Surely, Carter didn't realize that he was cheated. In fact, the so-called unique skill was just stolen from

the Beast Encyclopedia.

At the moment, Rocky was immersed in evaluating the lights released from the Sirius Lion, matching

them respectively to the qualities recorded in the Beast Encyclopedia. Soon enough, he finally found

the quality that Carter had missed.

In theory, it was beyond Rocky's current ability to evaluate the four-star baby spirit-manipulated beast,

because the lights coming from it were too obscure to identify. However, thanks to the detailed

information in the Beast Encyclopedia, Rocky was able to adjust those lights to correspond with the

qualities listed in the book. After that, Rocky compared his evaluation with Carter's and excluded the

same qualities that he also found. At last, the missing quality was revealed.

"Everybody, pay attention to the ash black light. It's so peculiar, neither bright nor dim. This light

represents the quality that Carter missed. It's very special in a way that it's difficult to find under normal

conditions. This quality is named as transformation. It means that the Sirius Lion will grow to a state

where he will be endowed with the ability of transformation. To be specific, it can freely change the

color of its fur, its size, and so on." Rocky showed the light in the spiritual array by itself so that the

crowd would be able to see it clearly.

Carter was embarrassed as Rocky pointed out his mistake publicly. He wanted to rebut what Rocky

said, but he couldn't think of anything to say to further contradict him. He knew what Rocky said was

right. Indeed, that was the quality he had missed. Maybe the others were not able to grasp the truth,

but for Carter, he knew it quite well.

'How was he able to evaluate it? With his current abilities, it would have been impossible for him to find

the quality I missed, ' Carter mused, astonished.

The crowd was also surprised. Since they didn't understand the principle of the Radiance Evaluation

Skill, they were still left confused even after Rocky's words. They didn't seem to trust Rocky because

he was only a beast evaluator at the first grade, which meant that it was impossible for him to figure out

the qualities of a four-star spirit-manipulated beast so expertly.

They all started speculating about Rocky. Many of them went as far as guessing about his origins. They

just couldn't fathom how his Beast Evaluation Skill was almost the same as Carter's.

"Even so, we still can't believe you. We don't understand a single thing you just said," one of the beast

evaluators questioned.

"It doesn't matter that you don't understand. I think Carter will support my finding." Seeing the sour look

on Carter's face, Rocky was sure that he had noticed the quality.

"Sorry, I don't know what you're talking about." As was expected, Carter was unwilling to admit that he

had left out a quality. He knew he would be disgraced if he admitted to losing to a lad who was just a

beast evaluator at the first grade.

"Do you want to deny the truth? Well, we'll see once the Sirius Lion grows up," Rocky calmly said.

"Tch. Stop stalling. I didn't expect such behavior from the Super Beast Farm, deliberately and

shamelessly obstructing the evaluation. It's clear that you just don't want to hand over the Top Beast

Evaluator's Jade Cup!" Carter wildly bellowed at Mia.

"If you're not convinced, we'd better ask a more powerful beast evaluator to arbitrate what's right and

wrong about the quality," Rocky quipped.

"That makes sense. I'll go to ask the Priest Dean of the Holy Dragon Empire to do this," Mia said as her

eyes flashed over to meet Rocky's. She knew Rocky had confidence in his evaluation.

Hearing that, the crowd turned and looked at Carter. It seemed that the Super Beast Farm was very

confident, even going as far as to invite Priest Dean, the top beast evaluator of the Holy Dragon

Empire, to judge the evaluation. If it were otherwise, they wouldn't have taken the risk.

Carter grew pale. He had heard of the great reputation of Priest Dean of the Holy Dragon Empire. The

man was one of the rare unmatched beast evaluators in the entire Wild Spirit Land. If Priest Dean

made the arbitration, he would undoubtedly lose. Thus, having felt that the situation was against him,

he immediately said to Rocky with false kindness, "Don't bother. We can settle this with a rematch. If

you lose, the Super Beast Farm should hand over the Top Beast Evaluator's Jade Cup."

"Madam Mia, I'm afraid that is not the proper way. Technically speaking, Rocky doesn't really belong to

the Super Beast Farm. We have already lost a match. If we lose again, we will make ourselves the

laughing stock," Weldon anxiously said, already concerned about the worst outcome. Theoretically, as

a beast evaluator at the first grade, Rocky couldn't possibly be able to rival Carter.

Thinking of the possible result mentioned by Weldon, Mia also grew a little worried. However, when she

looked up and met Rocky's eyes, she was shocked by his insistence and confidence. Thus, in spite of

herself, she announced, "Alright. Rocky will represent the Super Beast Farm. If we lose again, aside

from the Top Beast Evaluator's Jade Cup, we will give you ten thousand gold coins as our apology."
