Even after Xu Ran returned to Mu Yunchao's side, disbelief still lingered on Mu Yunchao's face.
Wait... how was that fair?!
After all, to help his Contract Beasts achieve better results in today's ranking push, he had exchanged points for a Monarch Rank resource for each of them.
How had Xu Ran managed to improve more than he had in a single day?
Qu Cheng, standing beside Mu Yunchao, looked equally unhappy. After all, he had lost his current position too.
However, he figured out the reason before Mu Yunchao did.
"During this time, he earned over three hundred thousand Beast Tamer Points in ranking rewards through his positions on the historical rankings."
Qu Cheng spoke gravely. "That many Beast Tamer Points would be enough to prepare several Monarch Rank resources for each Contract Beast."
Mu Yunchao froze for a moment before realization dawned on his face.
So that was it.
Had he ever earned that many Beast Tamer Points from the Beast Taming Rankings?
If he counted from his very first ranking attempt, the accumulated total probably reached that amount. After all, he was a formidable competitor who could place in the top three on both Commander Level Beast Tamer rankings.
But unlike that freak Xu Ran, he had earned those Beast Tamer Points in installments as he and his Contract Beasts gradually improved. Most of those points had already been converted into improvements along the way.
"Damn nouveau riche!" Mu Yunchao huffed. The smile on Xu Ran's face only annoyed him further. "I lost. A bet's a bet!"
Remembering that losing meant ten grooming sessions at Xu Ran's Boarding Shop, and that Xu Ran charged two or three times more than other shops, he felt he had suffered a huge loss.
Damn it!
