Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)

chapter-864
As Lin Yuan walked behind Zuo Ming in the long corridor, he arrived at another area in the Midnight Palace.
Many small rooms here looked like the breeding rooms and observation rooms at the third level of the Creation Master Association.
Lin Yuan could not tell how many of those rooms there were, but the area looked to be at least 300 meters in length.
With the pattern of one room and the adjacent one left empty, there had to be at least 60 rooms.
There was a carving of a different beast head carved on each door and the head a dragon-species fey in each beast head's mouth.Lin Yuan silently sighed to himself.
Just how much does Chief Guard Ye hate dragon-species feys?
When they arrived at a bronze statue of a beast head, Zuo Ming lifted it and allowed the challengers to pick topics from it.
Zuo Ming walked over to Lin Yuan, who was the first person behind him with the bronze statue in hand.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to hand the bronze statue to Lin Yuan, Zong Ze walked up to receive the bronze statue and said to Lin Yuan, "Here, pick a topic."
Lin Yuan thanked Zong Ze and dipped his hand into the mouth of the bronze statue to pick up one of the sheepskin scrolls inside.
He pulled out the scroll and looked at Zong Ze suspiciously. Zong Ze's actions were clearly a gesture of courtesy, and this sudden friendly attitude made Lin Yuan wary.After Lin Yuan thanked him, Zong Ze's hard expression softened into a smile, and he thought to himself, It looks like my slip of words didn't anger Lin Yuan. He wouldn't have thanked me if he did.
Zong Ze reached into the bronze statue and took out a sheepskin scroll before returning the bronze beast head statue to Zuo Ming.
Zuo Ming did not find it weird that Zong Ze had extended a friendly hand to Lin Yuan. It was normal for two disciples of members of royalty who were of the same age to become close.
However, the other challengers who were curious about Lin Yuan, who Liu Jie cared so much about, became even more curious. They did not understand what was so special about this young man that he would be so friendly with Chef Supreme's disciple after Chief Guard Ye's disciple had stood up for him.
All of them were green with envy!
There were only 11 participants in the Martial Arts Stage, and the topics were quickly picked.
Zuo Ming checked the time and said, "The time will start now. All of you can choose a breeding room each. You can look at your topics when you enter the breeding room and hand it to the Spirit Guard outside the room. The Spirit Guard will help to prepare your ingredients, and they'll leave immediately after handing you your ingredients. They won't bother you during the competition."
Zuo Ming started to record the time.
Every participant entered a breeding room of their choice.
Although Lin Yuan did not know what topic he had chosen, he quickly picked a breeding room.
There were only a total of 154 young disciples outside the Midnight Palace. Excluding the 25 that participated in the Arts Stage and 75 that participated in the Martial Stage, there were a total of 54 challengers who could have participated in the Martial Arts Stage.
After the 54 challengers had found out about the Martial Arts Stage's stringent rules, only 11 decided to participate in the Martial Arts Stage.
All 11 participants were the cream of the crop, and they were full of confidence in their powers.
Even if Lin Yuan did not manage to emerge as the winner of the Arts Stage component, he was resolved to be second place.
He was not going to waste a second.
After he entered the breeding room, Lin Yuan nodded to the Spirit Guard outside his room and unrolled his scroll to see what his topic was.
All his solemness was instantly replaced with ease.
The sheepskin scroll read: Evolve 5 Hanging Ear Electric Rabbits from Bronze/Elite to Bronze/Flawless and recover one Bronze/Normal Hanging Ear Electric Rabbit from its life-threatening injuries. Finally, evolve that Hanging Ear Electric Rabbit to Bronze/Flawless as well.
Lin Yuan had used the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds' first batch of pollen to remove his bad luck before he picked this topic. This meant that his own luck had directed him to pick this topic.
Before Lin Yuan had nurtured the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds by accident, he had never believed in the existence of luck because it was too flimsy and intangible.
But since the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds could remove bad luck, it proved the existence of bad luck in the world.
Since there was bad luck, there had to be good luck.
Now that he had experienced the effect of luck, Lin Yuan decided to acquire more feys that could improve his luck when he returned to the Return from Faraway Mansion.
The three Mountain River Eternal Life Carp were also lucky feys.
However, the Mountain River Eternal Life Carp's luck was directed at animals and insects. Their exclusive skills did not have much effect on spirit qi professionals and could only make the lives of spirit qi professionals more comfortable.
Lin Yuan wanted to find lucky feys that could improve the luck of spirit qi professionals. He had seen some when he was browsing in the Rare Lifeform Pavilion.
They had astronomical price tags and were bought up almost immediately after Lin Yuan spotted them.
These expensive lucky feys in the Rare Lifeform Pavilion had low levels, while the high-level ones were all in the hands of the major factions. Nonetheless, feys that could improve luck were very rare. No matter how expensive they were, no faction dared to use these feys as their role.
Usually, factions expanded to second or even third roles once their first role had progressed to a certain level.
For example, when the Sun family was in its prime, they also had Condense Healing on top of Condense Fairy Orchard.
Lin Yuan could now perfectly sustain Sky City's Creation Master role on his own.
