C2 Dragon Blood Evolution

Blood of the True Dragon: In the midst of your transmigration, your physical form was ravaged by a space-time tempest, leaving only a sliver of your pure bloodline intact. When a spirit beast is infused with the Blood of the True Dragon, its quality will surge dramatically, enabling it to evolve towards the majestic form of a True Dragon.

This item is the property of the host. The System charges a nominal fee of 1 point for its safekeeping.

Wang Yan's eyes widened in astonishment as he read the description of the Blood of the True Dragon.

He could hardly believe that he was a true scion of dragon lineage.

Wang Yan quelled the surge of excitement within him. As he perused the other items, his excitement redoubled.

Rank 2 Spirit Crystal: Elevates a Rank 1, Star 5 spirit beast to Rank 2, Star 1, bestowing a new skill in the process. It requires 200 points.

Rank 3 Spirit Crystal: Upgrades a Rank 2, Star 5 spirit beast to Rank 3, Star 1, along with a fresh skill. This requires 300 points.

Bloodline Tempering Stone: Enhances the spirit beast's bloodline, offering a chance for advancement. The higher the quality, the more Bloodline Tempering Stones are needed, and the slimmer the chances of progression. Priced at 500 points.

The caliber of a spirit beast is immutable. An ordinary spirit beast, even if elevated to Rank 9, remains ordinary.

Yet, the items available in the system store have the power to elevate a spirit beast's quality. Should such information leak, it could send the entire world into a frenzy.

Moreover, the Spirit Crystals are treasures in their own right.

Once a spirit beast attains Star 5, a plethora of materials is required for the next phase of ascension.

This endeavor is not only time-consuming and exhausting but also fraught with the risk of failure.

Spirit Crystals, however, can directly enhance a spirit beast's level.

And he could only acquire them through the exchange of points.

To earn these points, he would need to trade something of his own possession.

"Wang, did you overindulge today?" Zhang Wei asked, startled.

"I'm fine. I'm heading home," Wang Yan replied, gesturing dismissively.

Due to his frail health, his parents had purchased a house for him outside of school and employed a nanny to cater to his daily needs.

Upon arriving home, Wang Yan promptly locked the door and summoned Green, proceeding to exchange for the Blood of the True Dragon.

Green fixated on the Blood of the True Dragon for an intense ten seconds before finally turning to gaze at Wang Yan.

Its instincts whispered that this object held immense benefits for it.

It persistently nuzzled Wang Yan's hand.

"If you keep evolving, will you turn into a human?"

Wang Yan stroked its small head.

"Drink this and strive to evolve!"

Wang Yan set the vial filled with the Blood of True Dragon before Green. It seemed to grasp his words, nodding before diving in.

The crimson blood was licked spotlessly clean. In the blink of an eye, Green's form swelled rapidly.

In under thirty seconds, it had transformed into a massive serpent, six centimeters in diameter and stretching over three meters in length.

Its scales took on a deeper shade of green, and its head became more rounded.

Moreover, Wang Yan noticed that Green had grown four retractable, razor-sharp fangs inside its mouth.

Having completed its evolution, Green coiled around Wang Yan's arm and, catching him off guard, enveloped his finger in its mouth.

"What are you trying to do?"

Wang Yan's first thought was that Green intended to consume him. But as he was about to withdraw his finger, he felt a chilling energy.

Suddenly, the pressure in his chest vanished, and his breathing eased considerably.

Stunned, Wang Yan hurriedly checked the attribute panel.

Name: Venomous Snake (Green)

Quality: Leader

Level: Rank 1 Star 1

Attribute: Poison

Upgrade: Requires 2,500 kg of Rank 1 ferocious beast flesh and blood or other energy-dense materials.

Replenishment: Elite Skill. It can accumulate its power and nourish its master, enhancing their strength, agility, and constitution. The extent of the enhancement depends on the quality, level, and frequency of nourishment.

Dragon's Might: Leader Skill. It can dominate ferocious beasts and souls of a lower or equal quality, with a chance to compel their allegiance.

Rank 1 Skill:

Bite: Clamps down on the target.

Wang Yan was astounded. The Blood of True Dragon had elevated Green to Leader quality.

Wang Yan could benefit from Green's Replenishment skill!

Spirit beasts below Leader quality couldn't muster even half their strength against Green.

Those with feeble wills might even pledge fealty to Green.

The quality of a contracted spirit beast is constrained by the master's constitution. A person with a constitution of 5 points can bond with a normal-grade spirit beast. A person with 20 constitution points can bond with an elite-grade spirit beast. Only those with a constitution of 100 points can bond with a Leader-grade spirit beast.

Aside from the exceptionally gifted and super-wealthy, 99.999% of students could only bond with a spirit beast of ordinary quality upon graduation.

Achieving a constitution score of 20 before acquiring a spirit beast was an immensely challenging feat.

In over four centuries, no one had reached a constitution of 100 points.

Wang Yan's bloodline was consumed by his spirit beast. Following its successful advancement, the spirit beast reciprocated, strengthening Wang Yan in return.

As Green's rank and quality continued to improve, Wang Yan's own power would grow significantly.

His recovery to good health brought him immense joy.

Wang Yan's inherited memories revealed that he was poisoned at a very young age. He managed to survive, but his body suffered severe damage.

Despite consuming numerous tonics, his physical condition remained subpar.

Therefore, he was limited to contracting with the smallest spirit beast, which placed less strain on his body and prevented death from the contract's backlash.

However, the day after the contract was signed, Wang Yan's predecessor passed away, leaving Wang Yan to reap the benefits.

Wang Yan exchanged all the toxins in his body with the system. Green's advancement to Commander grade provided him with nourishment. At last, Wang Yan's chronic illness vanished, and his physical condition began to improve gradually.

Roughly five minutes later, Wang Yan checked his panel and discovered his attributes had doubled from before.

Name: Wang Yan

Level: None

Strength: 8 (Enhances physical attack, carrying capacity, etc.)

Agility: 8 (Improves movement speed, reflexes, dynamic vision, etc.)

Constitution: 6 (Boosts physical defense, healing rate, stamina, etc.)

Martial Arts: None

Soul Strength: 0.8 / 222 (Recovering slowly)

Soul Technique: None

Spirit Beast: Venomous Snake

His Soul Strength remained unchanged. To restore it, he would need to resort to extraordinary measures.

"Thank you for your efforts!"

Wang Yan removed his finger from Green's mouth and wiped it clean.

Green's new skill from the upgrade was an unexpected boon. Having not yet tested Dragon's Might, he was unaware of its full potential.

The amount of ferocious beast flesh and blood required for leveling up had surged from 50 jin to a staggering 5000 jin.

"Ms. Zhou, could you pick up 100 pounds of Rank 3 ferocious beast meat for me?" Wang Yan sent the payment to Ms. Zhou via his smartphone.

At this stage, it was fine if Green's appetite was on the larger side. Its diet could be entirely substituted with the flesh and blood of higher-tier spirit beasts. However, once Green advanced to Rank 7, things would get more complicated. High-grade ferocious beasts were scarce, and hunting them posed a significant challenge. Yet, considering Green's abilities, Wang Yan was brimming with confidence. In the future, he could enlist ferocious beasts to hunt for Green's sustenance.

Within a mere thirty minutes, someone arrived with the meat. The flesh and blood of a Rank 3 ferocious beast were packed with nutrients, making it prohibitively expensive for most. But Wang Yan's family had deep pockets. The vendor had already chopped the meat into manageable chunks.

Wang Yan handed a piece to Green. Typically, snakes gulp down their food whole, but Green ate with the delicacy of a young girl. After consuming roughly 60 pounds, Green's level ascended from Rank 1 Star 1 to Rank 1 Star 2. Wang Yan then purchased an additional 500 pounds for Green to feast on.

It's worth noting that Green was exceptionally beautiful, with its vibrant emerald scales and sleek form.

Time flew by, and with an endless supply of Rank 3 ferocious beast meat at its disposal, Green eventually reached Rank 1 Star 5. Wang Yan refrained from using a Rank 2 crystal to elevate Green to Rank 2 Star 1 since the second round of tests was imminent.

In this world, the college entrance exam offered three opportunities, each comprising two parts. A candidate's success hinged on their cumulative scores. Three months before college commenced, candidates could sit for the exam monthly. The first part evaluated attributes, while the second gauged combat prowess. To pass, one needed a Soul Strength of one and a constitution score of five. Actual combat scores had to be B rank or higher.

If a candidate's bonded spirit beast achieved Rank 2 before the exam, they automatically qualified for a B rank evaluation. Wang Yan was holding off on Green's upgrade to secure the rewards that came with an A grade rating.

The exotic resources offered by the Beast Tamer Association are beyond the reach of mere wealth. Even if he found no personal use for them, he could trade them in for points within the system.

Aside from Wang Yan, this was the path nearly every graduate would take.

Failure was not the end for them. There was always another opportunity.
