Shaping Fruit

After browsing the online shopping platform for five minutes, Qiao Sang decisively gave up on the idea of buying a Yin Tide Pearl online. 🎉✌ 👻💲

It cost only 9 and even came with free shipping. That was honestly terrifying.

Although some well-known flagship item stores had Yin Tide Pearls with appraisal certificates, the highest grade available was only A-grade.

That was a little too low-grade for Qiao Sang, who still had an Unlimited Card in hand.

Evolution was a major matter, after all. If she could get something better, naturally she should use the better one.

Qiao Sang looked up well-known branded item shops in the Nineteenth District, preparing to make a trip there.

Truly good things were hard to find online. She figured that if they were unavailable online, physical stores would surely have some, just like when she had bought those S-grade potions.

After noting down the addresses of several famous item shops, Qiao Sang logged onto Sainan High School's official website and checked the points redemption section.

Nearly all the redeemable items had already been replaced with new ones.

It seemed that the Grade Three Section students of Sainan High School were all using their points now... Qiao Sang swiped across the screen and began looking through the items that had not appeared yesterday.

Her Unlimited Card had not expired yet, so using points to exchange for things she could buy on the market with money would be pretty meaningless.

Qiao Sang opened the listings one by one, following the standard of items that were difficult to buy on the market.

Her points had originally accumulated to 1,121 in total. Exchanging for the Focus Monocle had cost 60 points, Pure Gan Essence 100 points, Holy Essence Water 300 points, the Pet Beast Micro-Shrinking Bracelet 5 points, and the limited-edition Star Mirror Series Pet Beast Identifier with Omni-Identifier 100 points. She now had 556 points left.

Later, she had also taken a liking to the Magical Hood, which required 50 points, but Gang Bao did not like it, so she had not exchanged for it. As a result, her points had remained untouched ever since.

556 points were already enough to exchange for something of a very high grade. Qiao Sang directly tapped "Sort by points: highest to lowest" on the left.

Name: Potential Card

Function: Drip a pet beast's blood onto the card to display the highest level of pet beast that pet beast can evolve into.

Note 1: This item is a single-use product and can only be used once.

Note 2: Before use, the pet beast must have an empty stomach and cannot drink water or eat any food.

Note 3: Do not let the Potential Card come into contact with water, or it will affect the final test result.

Points: 666

A Potential Card... This thing was probably only suitable for pet beasts she wanted to contract but had not contracted yet... The item ranked first in points only cost 666. It seemed that Sainan High School's good stuff had mostly been redeemed already... Qiao Sang glanced at the final point total, complained inwardly, and continued scrolling down.

Name: Shaping Fruit

Function: According to the pet beast's inner wishes, it can choose to make its body larger or smaller.

Note 1: A pet beast can only use a Shaping Fruit once in its lifetime. A second use is ineffective.

Note 2: Once changed, it cannot be changed again.

Note 3: The altered body size will either be half the original size or twice the original size.

Note 4: After a pet beast's body size changes, the amount of food it needs will decrease or increase accordingly. Please make preparations in advance.

Points: 555

It could change a pet beast's body size? Qiao Sang's eyes lit up.

This was great!

The bigger a pet beast's body, the stronger it was. While that was not absolute, it did indeed reflect the current state of ninety percent of the pet beast world.

Qiao Sang almost immediately thought of Gang Bao.

This thing was simply perfect for Gang Bao. After all, the larger Gang Bao's body was, the more effective its Air Absorption skill became!

Moreover, as a Flying Type pet beast, the power of many of Gang Bao's skills was tied to its size, such as common Flying Type skills like Air Blade and Brave Bird.

Most importantly, the Shaping Fruit required 555 points, which she could afford to exchange for exactly!

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang immediately tapped to confirm the exchange, afraid someone else would snatch it away if she moved too slowly.

After filling in her address, Qiao Sang put down her phone with satisfaction.

But she immediately thought of something, picked up her phone again, looked at the points redemption page that was still open, and tapped "Sort by points: lowest to highest" on the left.

There was still 1 point left. She couldn't waste it...

Name: VIP Invitation to the Semi-Finals of the 126th Pet Beast Arena Competition

Function: Allows entry to the VIP seats to watch the Semi-Finals of the 126th Pet Beast Arena Competition.

Note 1: It is for the Semi-Finals, not the Finals.

Note 2: It can be transferred.

Points: 1

Without a second thought, Qiao Sang directly tapped exchange.

She had no choice. This was the only thing 1 point could be exchanged for.

8:23 p.m.

At a certain chain-brand pet beast item shop.

The staff member said apologetically:

"Sorry, we don't have an S-grade Yin Tide Pearl here. Why don't you take a look at some other items?"

This was already the sixth shop... Qiao Sang said calmly:

"I can wait. Could you transfer one over from somewhere else?"

"I'm sorry." The staff member maintained an apologetic expression. "We truly don't have an S-grade Yin Tide Pearl. Perhaps you could look at some other items. We have plenty of items here that are suitable for Ghost Type pet beasts..."

Qiao Sang silently sighed inwardly. Ignoring the staff member's enthusiastic sales pitch behind her, she turned and left.

S-grade Yin Tide Pearls seemed to be far rarer than she had imagined. She had visited nearly every item shop with even a little reputation, yet none of them had one... Qiao Sang felt heavy-hearted, then suddenly thought of something. She took out her phone, logged onto the Pet Tamer Center's official website, tapped the task-posting section, and posted a request for an S-grade Yin Tide Pearl.

Since she could not find one herself, she could only ask others for help...

She turned off her phone screen, but in the very next second, it vibrated.

Qiao Sang picked it up and saw a notification from the Pet Tamer Center website's backend:

Someone has accepted your task.

Qiao Sang: "!!!"

That fast!

Qiao Sang was stunned. She immediately checked the details and called the number listed under the acceptor's information.

"Dudu~"

The call connected, and a pleasant female voice came through the speaker:

"Hello?"

"I'm Genius You You You Mu. Are you LoverWithNoResult?" Qiao Sang asked.

To ensure personal privacy, many people used their IDs when posting or accepting tasks online.

"That's me," LoverWithNoResult said. "But I don't have any S-grade Yin Tide Pearls on hand. I just know of a place that might have news about a Yin Tide Pearl of that grade. Do you want it?"

"Yes," Qiao Sang said decisively.

"Then the VIP ticket for the International Team Tour of the Pet Tamer Professional League in your task reward..."

"If the information you provide is correct, I'll mail the ticket to you."

"Alright." LoverWithNoResult's voice carried a smile.

"I saw that the location where you posted the task is the Nineteenth District. There is an Underground Trading Market there, right beneath Nether Nest Bar. As long as you show the people inside that you're a pet tamer and say that you want to trade, someone will naturally take you there."

After saying that, she paused and added:

"There are quite a few good things related to Ghost Type pet beasts there."
