At present, aside from summoners, players' pets could not play much of a role, especially for top experts like Ye Luo and his group. Even a powerful pet like the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox could not participate in battle, particularly after Ye Luo and the others activated their ultimate moves or used Combination Equipment skills. In those states, they could easily kill pets, so pets had very limited use.
Because of this, aside from summoners, almost no players summoned pets to fight in battles now.
That was also why everyone had been so disappointed upon seeing that the crystal Ye Luo obtained could raise a pet by one grade. In their minds, even if the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox rose by one grade, it would merely gain another tail, which would not increase its strength much. In other words, this drop did not mean much to them.
"Perhaps it doesn't raise a pet's grade the way equipment grades are raised. Perhaps it does something else, and the improvement could be substantial." Yan Hua Yi Leng suddenly said, looking at Ye Luo as she spoke. "Besides, this crystal shard was dropped by a Demon God Grade boss, and by a powerful boss like the Ninth Demon God. Its effects definitely won't be ordinary."
"That's right." Zuo Shang Qin Xin took over. "It's better than having nothing, anyway. Ye Luo should use it first. Maybe there'll be a surprise."
Hearing this, everyone nodded. Ye Luo said nothing more and followed the system prompt to use the Demon God Crystal Shard (Beast Type) on the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox. Then he received a system notification, one that thrilled him immensely:
"Ding~!"
