Rags to Riches: The Rise of a Dual-Talent Prodigy-Chapter 491 - 483: Venom · Travel Frog Version

Sea City.

In the Awakened Association President’s office, Secretary Han leaned over to pour tea for Qian Qi.

Behind the desk, Wei Bisheng clasped his hands slightly and went straight to the point of calling her, "Now that the Beast Taming Association is reaching into the Awakened Association, I want to collaborate with your school."

A Awakened with awakened skills, after all, is more likely to form a contract with a magical beast than an unarmed ordinary person. The Beast Taming Association is greedy and dissatisfied with only recruiting ordinary people, so it naturally sets its sights on the Awakened Association.

If Wei Bisheng wants to maintain his current position, he can only find allies, like the Awakener University.

"Couldn’t you just find the principal for this matter? Why are you looking for me?" Qian Qi didn’t drink the tea and retorted.

Wei Bisheng was silent for a moment, "This matter involves too much complexity, I can’t explain in detail. I hope you can mediate so that our Awakened Association can also contract magical beasts." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Qian Qi responded with an "Oh", "Okay, they say courtesy demands reciprocity. I happen to have something I need your help with too."

Wei Bisheng: ...

Is that really how you use reciprocity!?

But this also means the cooperation is solid. Only when there’s a favor to ask will Qian Qi put her full effort behind it.

"Currently, the magical beast eggs are all being acquired by the Beast Taming Association. I hope the Awakened Association can break the monopoly and snatch this business." Qian Qi’s face quickly showed a sly and terrifying smile, so fast it felt like an illusion. Wei Bisheng caught it just in time and couldn’t help his hand from trembling.

This girl, she looks decent usually, but how come her smile is so creepy.

"Alright," Wei Bisheng agreed. The things Qian Qi wanted were bound to be good, he quickly figured it out, "Do you know the way to contract magical beast eggs?"

Qian Qi instantly turned her head excitedly, "President Wei wants to know? I’ll sell it to you for 60 trillion!!!"

Wei Bisheng: ...

trillion, why don’t you just go rob? Might as well hand over the Awakened Association to you and let you be the president!

Wei Bisheng waved his hand, "Alright, don’t I know you? As soon as you get something good, you announce it to the world. I’m sure you want this magical beast egg deal just to supply magical beast eggs to your school, right?"

Qian Qi couldn’t help giving him a thumbs up, praising, "Why didn’t I think of that? President Wei, you truly have lived decades longer than me, your consideration is long-sighted! Let’s set it this way!"

Her ability to conduct affairs so successfully and earn so much money is all thanks to these old cunning foxes with their wild imaginations, hahaha!

Wei Bisheng: ...

Damn, he shouldn’t have said so much!

After Qian Qi talked to Principal Zheng about this, a response quickly came back: Okay.

"The principal has agreed; I won’t disturb you further." Qian Qi stood up to say goodbye.

After Qian Qi left, Wei Bisheng glanced at the untouched cup of tea on the coffee table.

Shortly after, he chuckled, "She indeed is clever, I don’t even want to devour her anymore."

——

Soon, the Awakened Association also began to provide contracting services.

With the branded endorsement from Awakener University, they naturally attracted many people to join. The fact that the Awakened Association was acquiring magical beast eggs also sparked much discussion among netizens who speculated about the future direction of beast taming.

The Beast Taming Association expected the Awakened Association to fight back, but didn’t expect them to go scorched earth, openly stealing away the magical beast eggs business.

Yet, the Beast Taming Association couldn’t do anything to them.

In the past, the Beast Taming Association enjoyed a prestigious status, where people would courteously yield to them, allowing them to monopolize the magical beast industry. But times have changed, and beast taming is no longer an exclusive privilege of the Beast Taming Association. In the future, perhaps more organizations related to beast taming will emerge, propelling society into a national beast-taming era.

And the Beast Taming Association cannot withstand the tide of time.

In the end, the Beast Taming Association had to bow their heads, sending Beast Masters everywhere to give lectures to expand their influence, even appointing several advanced Beast Masters to Awakener University to make up for the lack of educational resources due to the influx of students.

Principal Zheng welcomed them without hesitation, backed by Mr. Sun, Mr. Li, and personally protected by Su Ang, he was not afraid of any tricks the Beast Taming Association might play.

The national beast taming movement was unfolding methodically.

And Qian Qi’s A-level Concentration Fruit was finally successfully planted.

"Wonderful, it’s all worth my backache and leg cramps, yellow face, and dark circles!" Qian Qi excitedly raised the Concentration Fruit and began scanning it with her Decoding Technique.

[Name: Concentration Fruit (Evolution Gene Transformation)]

[Rank: A-level]

[Effect: Consuming it can raise spiritual power level to A-level, adding 5 million points of spiritual power]

[Market Price: Unvalued, not recommended for sale]

"It’s A-level! It succeeded!" Qian Qi exclaimed excitedly, she quickly donned convex glasses and started the machine to extract seeds.

The birth of this A-level Concentration Fruit also signifies the birth of about 8 A-level Concentration Fruit mother seeds. Once Qian Qi performs another demonization with her Divine Hand, the yield rate will greatly improve.

And these mother seeds must have a set reserved both in the Magic Plant Research Institute and Awakener University, to avoid their loss or theft due to wars.

Perhaps, in several decades or centuries later, when humans fully understand the rules of these magic plants, they will hybridize these seeds further, cultivating even more superior magic plants beneficial to humanity.

After all, human potential is infinite.

Qian Qi carefully sealed two of the seeds, preparing to plant the remaining seeds in the back mountain. But then she turned around to find Bone Mother had somehow jumped onto the table and gulped down the A-level Concentration Fruit.

Qian Qi: !!!

"Ahhh—!" Qian Qi shrieked sharply, "My Concentration Fruit—! Spit it out—!"

But it was too late. The Concentration Fruit digests quickly, and Bone Mother’s digestive abilities were unlike normal magical beasts. By the time Qian Qi pried open its mouth, all that was left was a pool of red juice, painting Bone Mother entirely red.

Qian Qi hurriedly picked it up, tilted her head back, and tried to squeeze as much of it as she could into her own mouth.

Bone Mother: ...

Bone Mother just split into two, slipped out of Qian Qi’s hand, and slinked away.

"Nooo—" Qian Qi fell to her knees, extending an Er Kang hand in despair, "My A-level Concentration Fruit! My Ah Tu—! My Silver—!"

She was banking on eating that Concentration Fruit to form contracts with Ah Tu and Silver!

All down the drain—!

...

Bone Mother sneakily returned to the Magic Beast Warehouse, spitting the red juice into the bathtub.

The black magic beast egg that had been still as if dead suddenly moved a little, its surface covered with strange patterns soaking up the A-level Concentration Fruit’s juice. After absorbing it all, it swayed slightly, sending a very faint spiritual wave towards Bone Mother.

Bone Mother nudged the magic beast egg, while the Poisonous Venomous Python hiding at the bottom of the tub slowly poked its head out, asking, "Stole the Concentration Fruit, did you?"

Bone Mother nodded.

"Then let’s hurry and run. If the master finds out I was also involved, we’re doomed!" The Poisonous Venomous Python twisted its body in fear, not daring to be too close to Qian Qi lately, lest she sense its guilty conscience and find out Bone Mother’s scheming of the past few days.

"Let’s continue hunting outside!" The Poisonous Venomous Python caught the leaping Bone Mother, and they swaggered out of the school, "We’ll bring back new gifts for the master! Then she won’t scold me!"

The black magic beast egg in the bathtub sent out another faint spiritual wave, as if bidding them farewell.

Meanwhile, at the ground floor security post, Uncle Li, who was watching a beautiful hunt live stream, glanced up, then went back to his screen, but the corners of his mouth clearly curled up a bit more.

He softly muttered, "This little one, has found a treasure..."
