Chapter 147: Zhenbao Pavilion Manager! Eagle Eye Upgraded!
Not long after, the large eyeball Su Yang bid on was delivered to the private room.
While paying for the goods, Su Wan reminded Su Yang: "Where's your medal? Show it—let Zhenbao Pavilion give you a discount!"
"Really?"
"Of course!"
So Su Yang produced his Xingcheng Level-One Hero Medal.
Seeing the glittering medal, the Zhenbao Pavilion staff froze in shock.
The Zhenbao Pavilion staff said: "A Level-One City Hero Medal grants you a ten percent discount on any purchase here!"
"Then swipe your card!"
"Alright!"
Thus, Su Yang saved another six thousand Federal Credits.
Su Wan, sitting beside him, said with a hint of regret: "When we were betting on the ferocious beast eggs earlier, I completely forgot—otherwise we could've saved five hundred more!"
In the later stages of the auction, only precious ferocious beast eggs appeared, including two certified Platinum-level ferocious beast eggs, followed by rare resources for raising ferocious beasts.
Su Yang didn't really need any of these.
He didn't even care about Sovereign-potential ferocious beast eggs—why would he spend a fortune on Platinum-potential ones?
After a while, the auction ended; just as Su Yang and the others were about to leave, the beautiful female auctioneer appeared at their door.
Behind the female auctioneer stood a tall, thin old man with snow-white hair and a goatee.
Su Wan smiled upon seeing the tall old man: "Manager Chen, what brings you here?"
Manager Chen smiled at Su Yang: "I came to meet this young brother!"
"Oh!"
Su Wan immediately understood.
"Would you do us the honor, Young Su Yang, of joining us for tea in the back?"
Su Yang hesitated, but Su Wan tugged his sleeve, signaling him to accept.
"Alright!"
Through Yidaoda Sect, the door closed behind them, as if sealing off the world.
The noise vanished; around them grew lush plants and flowers.
Though it was winter, a few plum blossoms still emitted a faint fragrance.
In the parlor, servants brought fragrant tea.
"I've long heard Young Su Yang has extraordinary talent; now that I see you, the rumors are true!" Manager Chen chuckled. "I never imagined you're already a Bai Yin-level Beast Tamer!"
Su Wan sat beside him, expression calm.
Clearly, she already knew Su Yang's strength.
Su Yang shrugged helplessly: "What can I do? My beast companions grow too fast—I can't even keep up!"
Manager Chen lowered his head silently, suddenly at a loss for words.
Su Wan turned her head away, refusing to engage with either of them.
Was it Su Yang's fault that his talent was too great and his power rose too quickly?
"Actually, I came specifically to meet this hero," Manager Chen quickly regained his composure, pulling a black card from his robe and offering it to Su Yang. "This is our Zhenbao Pavilion VIP card. Any purchase you make here will be discounted ten percent—combined with your medal, you'll enjoy nearly a twenty percent discount."
Was this free benefit?
To be honest, Su Yang disliked taking unearned favors.
Su Wan winked at Su Yang…
Seeing Su Yang accept the VIP card, Manager Chen smiled.
"Please, Young Su Yang, visit our Zhenbao Pavilion often. If you need anything, just place an order—we have branches across southern Huaxia Federation, and we can keep an eye out for rare ferocious beast eggs and valuable resources! If you have something to sell, we'll offer fair prices!"
"Hmm, I understand, thank you, Manager Chen!" Su Yang paused, then asked: "Do you still have the Demon Eye Beast's eyeball? I recall Demon Eye Beasts have two eyes—why did you auction only one?"
In truth, the Zhenbao Pavilion's appraiser had made a mistake.
They believed it was merely an ordinary Platinum-level Demon Eye Beast's eyeball, capable of only slightly enhancing a beast companion's vision.
But Su Yang knew: that Demon Eye Beast had mutated!
What is mutation?
Every ferocious beast, bound by its bloodline, has a ceiling of potential.
Like the demonic sparrow—its strongest members can reach only Black-Iron Top-Grade.
If one in its lineage rises to Bronze, it has mutated—broken free of its bloodline's shackles!
Such mutations occur once in a million…
Strictly speaking, all three of Su Yang's beast companions are mutated.
Manager Chen smiled awkwardly: "Indeed, that Demon Eye Beast still has one eyeball left in our store."
"Can you sell it to me?"
Su Yang began considering whether to sell his Rock Demon Golem for cash.
His sixty thousand Federal Credits were earned through hard-fought battles—earning sixty thousand in a month already made him exceptional!
Manager Chen said: "If you need it, I can give it to you."
The VIP card was likely one of Zhenbao Pavilion's methods to court promising young Beast Tamers.
But this free gift—Su Yang didn't want it.
He didn't want to owe anyone.
"No need—I'll raise the money myself!"
"No gifts—we're not short on cash!"
Su Wan also jumped in and said.
Seeing Su Wan pay directly, Su Yang felt a little embarrassed.
Su Wan said with a smile: "It's fine, I know you don't have much money on hand. Once you've saved up enough, you can pay me back!"
"Mm, I'll pay you back!"
Su Wan put on a money-grubbing expression: "There'll be interest though~"
Su Yang laughed: "Alright, interest as calculated!"
After Su Wan said all that, Su Yang's mood improved a great deal.
In the end, the other eyeball of the Mutant Demon-Eyed Beast also fell into Su Yang's hands.
Leaving the Treasure Pavilion, Su Yang left the city, found a secluded spot, and released the Storm Eagle.
By now the Storm Eagle's wingspan had already reached twenty meters; Su Yang didn't know how large it would ultimately grow.
Su Yang took out two eyeballs of the Demon-Eyed Beast, wrapped in frost, from his spatial pouch.
"Eat these two eyeballs!"
The Storm Eagle did not refuse and directly swallowed both eyeballs.
Immediately after, Su Yang heard the system notification chime:
"Ding~ Your pet beast Storm Eagle has consumed two eyeballs of the Mutant Demon-Eyed Beast. The ordinary-grade talent Eagle Eye has been raised by one level, upgrading to Rare-grade!"
Not bad!
It had actually directly raised its talent by one level.
Unfortunately, the Storm Eagle's growth potential did not continue to improve.
However, Su Yang could completely accept this.
After all, the Storm Eagle's growth potential was already very high.
The later the stage, the harder it would surely be to raise growth potential.
