Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone-Chapter 570 - 399: Top-tier Dragon Pet, Harvesting Undead Resources!

Earth-attribute Heavenly and Earthly Treasures aren’t easily found. In contrast, the student’s offer seemed too meager and somewhat unequal. It was one thing whether anyone in the audience even possessed an Earth-attribute Heavenly and Earthly Treasure, but even if they did, they likely wouldn’t be willing to trade with a student who seemed to lack sincerity.

After waiting ten minutes with no response, the second student could only walk off the platform, dejected. He had wasted an extremely valuable bartering opportunity.

After all, a trade is about mutual benefit. If one party’s offer isn’t attractive enough, reaching a consensus is naturally difficult.

A third student immediately took his place on the platform. This was the customary rule of the treasure appraisal assembly. In each round, students would go on stage one by one in a set order. Furthermore, every resource exchange had to be of the same type, which was considered fairer.

The student stepping onto the stage this time was a tall, focused young man. He was concise and got straight to the point, stating his intention in a single sentence.

"This is a Withered Leaf Butterfly, discovered in a Spatial Fragment from the Forest of Nature. It’s a Lower Black Iron-rank, insect-type Spirit Beast and is considered a species with a very strong racial Talent. I want to trade it for some special resources used for Natural Attribute Cultivation."

As soon as he finished speaking, he displayed what he had to offer. He took out a small, transparent box. Inside lay a colorful butterfly whose wings were covered in intricate patterns that resembled withered leaves, making it difficult to distinguish.

"This Withered Leaf Butterfly is extremely rare in the Forest of Nature. Its racial Talent allows it to camouflage itself in any environment, making it nearly undetectable. It would be a very useful companion for any student who needs stealth abilities."

This trade was also a success. The person who responded was an acquaintance of Fang Zhou’s—Gu Yueyuan, the Insect Nest Walker.

During a previous spar with Fang Zhou, Gu Yueyuan had completely exhausted the life potential of his Lifebound Gu Insect, the Cyan Dragon Centipede. Because of this, he had been diligently searching for a suitable replacement.

Fang Zhou watched from the side, observing a rare flicker of excitement on Gu Yueyuan’s usually expressionless poker face. Clearly, the Withered Leaf Butterfly presented by the student on stage was exactly what he needed.

As for the Natural Attribute Cultivation Resources the student required, they were quite rare on the open market. However, since Gu Yueyuan was able to participate in this treasure appraisal assembly, he naturally possessed considerable wealth.

Birds of a feather flock together. The Sea City Military Academy students who associated with Fang Zhou were naturally extraordinary. In a way, this small-scale treasure appraisal assembly was a rare gathering of the academy’s elite.

Afterward, one student after another eagerly took the stage. Their trade demands were bizarre and varied. The more common trades involved Cultivation Resources. The more unusual ones included niche Equipment, Marvels, and even Spatial Fragments or intelligence maps of the Fierce Beast Mountain Range.

Of course, not every trade was successful. In fact, the vast majority ended in failure. This treasure appraisal assembly was merely an attempt to provide a fair bartering platform for the Sea City Military Academy students; it never guaranteed that everyone would get the resources they desired.

The students continued to take their turns on stage, and the first round was about to end. Fang Zhou’s turn was near the end of the rotation, and he was already rubbing his hands in anticipation.

Just before his turn, a stout male student stepped onto the platform. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

He cleared his throat and announced loudly, "I have some Dragon Juice Fruits here. They can be used by Dragon Descendant Spirit Pets below the Black Iron rank to accelerate their growth. In return, I want some Equipment or a Marvel that can increase combat power. It should preferably have no usage restrictions—the kind that anyone can use. Who wants to make this trade?"

Fang Zhou’s eyes lit up when he heard this.

Dragon Juice Fruit was an extremely rare food ingredient for dragon-type Spirit Beasts. It was also listed as the best possible food in the cultivation guide for dragon-type Spirit Pets that Major General Ning Danxin had given him.

According to Major General Ning Danxin, she had previously gathered some materials to raise Black Gem Young Dragons. Unfortunately, since the Black Gem Young Dragon was a native species of the Mythical World, there weren’t many suitable resources for them to be found on Blue Star.

Even Major General Ning Danxin had been unable to find a material like Dragon Juice Fruit, as it couldn’t be cultivated on a large scale and her time had been too limited. She had only managed to prepare some scattered substitutes for Fang Zhou to feed the soon-to-hatch Black Gem Young Dragon.

But now that he had unexpectedly encountered Dragon Juice Fruit—the best possible dragon feed—at Sea City Military Academy’s treasure appraisal assembly, Fang Zhou would naturally not let the opportunity pass him by.

Fang Zhou glanced at the surrounding students. To his relief, none of them seemed particularly interested in the Dragon Juice Fruits.

This was understandable. After all, for students with different Attributes and Professions, the value of any given resource depended entirely on their specific needs. Some might consider the very same resource to be worthless, casting it aside like a worn-out shoe. Yet others would stop at nothing to acquire it, treating it as a priceless treasure once they succeeded.

"Dragon-type resources..."

"I didn’t expect to see dragon-type resources for trade in the very first round. Anything with ’dragon’ in the name has its value multiplied. It’s a pity we have no use for it."
