Lia might be no lady, but she was at least slim and graceful. Looking at her and the drooling old Peaga Bear, and imagining them cuddling and sleeping together, the people could not bear it and burst into laughter.

“Go to hell, go to hell, damn fatso, throw him out!” Looking at the disgusting old Peaga Bear, Lia was furious, and threw the black cloth onto the cage.

“Miss Lia, this is truly the last Peaga Bear in our Hunter Association, nut...” Looking at Lia who was about to go crazy, Yang Ling smiled and took out a Pet Card, and then summoned a chubby small Peaga Bear. “The Beast Taming Ground might not have anymore, but that does not mean other places do not!”

“You petty man, quickly give me the little bear. How much money do you want? Just look for the damn Fatso!”

Looking at the chubby newborn Peaga Bear in Yang Ling’s arms, Lia brightened, blinked and smiled through her tears. She grabbed the little bear from Yang Ling’s arm and gently stroked its furry and big head.

“Miss Lia, try dripping a drop of blood onto this Pet Card, maybe you’ll discover something greater!” Looking Lia who could cry and smile at a drop of a hat, Yang Ling smiled.

“Pet Card?” Looking at the Crystal card, which looked like a piece of jade, in Yang Ling’s hand Lia hugged the small bear and backed half a step away suspiciously, afraid that Yang Ling was up to his tricks again. “I only want the small bear. If you want money of blood, go find Fatso!”

“Hmm... You sure you don’t want it?” Looking at Lia, who looked like a bird which was startled by the sight of a bow, Yang Ling smiled mysteriously. His big gray wolf-like smile scared Lia so that she took a few more steps backwards, turning sideways to hide behind the Knight Halalei, afraid that Yang Ling might change his mind and snatch the small bear in her arms back.

“Hehe, too bad if you don’t want such a good thing. Brother Yang Ling, let me!” Hearing that he needed to drip blood on the card, Fatso, standing at the side, had a sudden thought, and thought about the legendary Magic Hunting Cards produced by the Magical Beasts Realm. As he spoke, he snatched the Pet Card from Yang Ling’s hand, and bearing with the pain, bit his index finger and dripped a drop of fresh blood on it.

Instantly, a circle of continuously rotating, and mysterious runes appeared on the card, radiating pulses of hidden energy. The runes started spinning faster and faster, then a silver light flashed, and everything returned to normal.

To an outsider, there was no difference to the card, compared to before. But, Fatso vaguely felt that there was a space within the crystal. In joy, he immediately summoned his Green-skinned Condor, and easily kept it within the card.

The Green-skinned Condor was a level three Magical Beast that was not evolved. The Pet Card might not be a Battle Card, but it definitely had no problem sealing away such a low level War Pet.

“Brother Yang Ling, thanks for your Pet Card. Come, brother here will treat you to a few drinks!” After trying it out a few times over, Fatso Hans got more and more excited, and could not bear to part with the card.

Different from the Life Necklace around his neck which needed a large amount of Magical Energy to activate, the Pet Card can be used with only a bit of Mental Energy. It was simple and convenient.

Previously, he could at most summon the Green-skinned Condor three times a day with his pitiful Magical Power. But with the Pet Card, summoning it eight or even ten times would not be a problem. In an unpredictable battlefield where the situation was always changing, it would be like having a few more War Pets and having a few more lives.

“Brother Yang Ling, I want one too!” After understanding how the cleverly the Pet Card could be used, Lia regretted immensely. If the card in Fatso’s hands had not been set to recognize him with his blood, she would have snatched it from him without hesitation.

A cute furry little Peaga Bear, and a shiny Pet Card that could be carried with her wherever she went. What a wonderful dream that would be!

“Miss Lia, this...” Yang Ling pretended to be caught in a difficult position, falling silent before saying, “These Pet cards are made with top quality Crystals. I’m afraid that there will not tbe enough money even if you sell all of Fatso’s fatty meat. So...”

“I...”

Seeing Yang Ling glancing at her chest, intentionally or unintentionally, Lia turned red in the face. She instinctively took a few steps backwards, afraid that he had other ideas. Recalling what he and Fatso said to each other secretively on the horse carriage, that her breasts were flat as the clam sea’s surface, she gritted her teeth angrily.

“Yang Ling, how many of such Pet Cards do you still have? Take them all out. I’ll buy them all!” Looking at Lia, who looked like a bird which was startled by the sight of a bow, Harribell, who was standing at the side, smiled. Witnessing Fatso Hans drip his blood onto the crystal card and seal his Green-skinned Condor inside, she understood how Yang Ling was going to solve the problem of forgery. The more she thought about it, the more excited she got!

The consumers of the Magical Beast Pets are various nobles and merchants. To them, as long as the product was unique and attractive, it did not matter even if it were to cost a few thousand or ten thousand more Purple Crystal Coins.

Cute Magical Beast Pets plus one of a kind, convenient to carry Pet Cards, was the best combination. Harribell believed that once it was released to the public, the noble ladies and merchants would have great interest in the product.

Looking at the anxious Lia and the excited Harribell, Yang Ling no longer kept the secret, and took out all the Pet Cards he had. Everyone got one. After sharing the Magical Beasts Realm’s plan of mass producing the Pet Cards, everyone exclaimed in awe.

After getting the Pet Cards, Lia, Halalei and gang were very excited, and formed a team to go into the Amazon Forest to catch a low level Magical Beasts, so they could tame their own Magical Beast Pets that they could bring around on their person at all times. Harribell on the other hand, left quickly, to go back to Monston and make relevant preparations.

A few days flew by quickly. With the hard work of Master Aaron and the Gnome Elder, the first batch of Pet Cards were officially released!

Just as Harribell predicted, releasing the Pet Card and the Magical Beast Pet as a set caused a sensation on the Continent again. More than a hundred Pet Cards were bought at high prices within half an hour.

The astonishing profits and countless orders drove the whole Boulade Merchant’s Association crazy for the cards. To get the supply of Pet Cards, big merchant associations like the Aragon Merchant Team went straight into action, short of biting through their lips and kicking down Yuna’s front door.

Yang Ling did not care for such trivial matters and Goode was in charge of managing the Magical Beasts Realm itself. In this way, the decision on who to work with fell into Yuna’s hands. Within two short days, not to mention Yuna, even the ladies-in-waiting and even the female servant who cleaned Yuna’s room got many presents.

It was easy to get a thousand pieces of gold, but hard to get a card!

As there were not enough to go around, many nobles travelled far and wide to come the Jaboli to see Yuna, buying just created Pet Cards at a high price. The team of Alchemists led by Master Aaron and Elder Gnome, were so busy that they did not even have time to eat or drink!

Seeing the astonishing profit the Pet Cards were making, a few envious and green-eyed fellow spent a lot of money and resources to get their hands on a sample. Unfortunately, they did not know how to cast Restriction, and had no Wizard Power, so all that they did was for nothing.

As for bribing and kidnapping Master Aaron and the Gnome Elder, no one even dared to think about it. The bloodthirsty and savage way the Magical Beasts Realm treats its enemies were also well-known throughout the Tailun Continent.

The Pet Card was a good thing, not to mention the Battle Card and Magic Hunting Card of higher level. While practicing, Yang Ling would sometimes create a few cards to train his dexterity.

Creating the card itself was quite beneficial to the growth of one’s Mental Energy. Unfortunately, drawing high level Gnome Spell Formations required various Blood Essences of different high level Magical Beasts, and quite a number of rare materials, so it could not be mass produced.

After becoming the Moon Priestess, Sophia’s Natural Spells have become the epitome of perfection. She also had many followers to protect her, so there was not much problem with safety on her end. Alice might not know Battle Energy or any powerful Magic, but her Poison Techniques would catch anyone unawares. Besides, she usually stayed in the Experimentation Tower so did not face much danger. It was Yuna, on the other hand, that worried Yang Ling a little.

Even though Yuna had strong Magic, and had very powerful with Fire Element Magic, she was out and about most of the time and had to face all sorts of people. If she was not careful, she might just be in any kind of danger. So Yang Ling was prepared to create a Nine-star Magic Hunting Card and seal away a Dark Dragon for her as protection. He was also going to look for the Blood Essence of a high level Water Element Magical Beast in order to draw a corresponding Spell Formation.

On this day, just as he was riding on a Deep Sea Giant Python on an untraversed sea area to search for traces of Water Element Magical Beasts, he unexpectedly encountered a group of ruffian and a group of wicked and savage pirates.

“Hurry, kill all the men, and take all the women back to the island!”

“Tsk tsk, I never thought that there would be a few charming beauties on the wooden raft. We have struck it rich this time!”

“Kekeke, I would rather have these few beauties stay and have my way with them for a few days than take a single Crystal Coin!

...

Looking at the beautiful women, the pirates, with bare upper bodies, laughed loudly and attacked the warriors on the boat ferociously. Their eyes red, they attacked one by one like hey were not afraid of death!

Under the attack of the numerous pirates, the exhausted warriors on the boat, in torn and tattered clothing fell one after another, leaving behind a group of woman and children clutching at each other in terror and screaming for help, looking helplessly at the open sea.

“Young Master, go quickly. It’ll be too late if you don’t go now!” Seeing that all is lost, a blood-stained warrior held a teary-eyed young man tightly, trying to persuade him to take a small boat and leave with the warrior, in the hopes of leaving someone to continue the bloodline of the family.

Under the attack of their enemies, the Drew Family had already been torn apart. Only the Mistress, young Mistress and young Master of the family managed to flee under the protection of the warriors of the family, who fought hard to protect them. If the warrior did not make the decision to leave with the young Master, the Drew Family might lose all hope of resurrection and taking revenge!

“No... Even if I were to die, I would also want to take my mum and sister along with me!”

Looking at the flying arrows of the pirates among them and his mother passed out on the ground, and looking at his sister, who was laying on top of her mother in terror and screaming for help, the young man struggled hard to break free of the guard’s big hands, charging towards the savage and wicked pirates without caring about the consequences.

“Die, die!”

In madness, he raised a sharp dagger and ferociously attacked the pirates nearby. It was a courageous act, but unfortunately, he was weak and did not know Battle Energy, and was no match for the pirates. In an instant, he was wounded all over and had bloodstains everywhere, his bloody wounds being sliced open by the pirates’ sharp scimitars.

“Hehe, how long do you think this little fellow will last?”

“Kekeke, don’t kill him all at once, tie him up, and let him see how crazy his mother and sister can get in bed later!”

...

Looking at the crazed young man, and looking at his beautiful sister and still charming mother, the lecherous devils of pirates cackled loudly.

A bunch of lecherous, perverted and cruel fellows!

Seeing the pirates full of murderous energy, and looking at the numerous helpless women, elderly and children, Yang Ling frowned. He summoned a group of Magical Beasts, and commanded the Dark Dragon King to lead the numerous Horned Bee Beasts and Self Destructing Bats to charge forward.

“Oh no, it’s the Five-clawed Golden Dragon Flag. Quick, let’s go!”

“It’s the Lord of the Magical Beasts. Heavens, why did we encounter this devil king? Quick, let’s retreat!”

...

Looking at the suddenly appearing Magical Beasts Army, and seeing the Flying Dragon King Seylius raise the Five-clawed Golden Dragon Flag fluttering in the wind behind Yang Ling, the pirates rapidly retreated in terror.

No pirate making a living no the nearby sea areas had not heard of the terrifying strength and power of the Magical Beasts Realm. Even the most savage pirate did not have the guts to face off Yang Ling, whom according to legend, was an ultimate Expert who had fought off more than a hundred Golden Giant Dragons. Furthermore, he also had hordes of ferocious Magical Beasts.

After fighting off the savage pirates without breaking a sweat, Yang Ling teleported onto the boast from the Giant Python. Looking at the bloodstained young man, Yang Ling nodded his head in appreciation. He then instructed the Flying Dragon King Seylius to clean up the battlefield and save the survivors who had gone overboard into the sea.

The Lord of the Magical Beasts?

This was the legendary Lord of the Magical Beasts who had summoned thousands to form an army to thoroughly defeat the Banto Empire, the one who rode alone and travelled a long way, while overcoming many traps and ambushes, to fight off over a hundred Golden Giant Dragons?

Looking at Yang Ling, who had teleported onto the boat, and recalling the terrified shouts of the pirates before they left, the bloodstained young man knelt in front of Yang Ling with a ‘thud’sound. “My Lord, Ramos is unable to learn and Battle Energy and Magic by nature, bringing shame and disaster to my family. If I could acknowledge My Lord as my Tutor, and learn an ability to take revenge, Ramos is willing to do whatever it takes!”

Unable to learn any Battle Energy of Magic by nature?

Looking at Ramos who was physically weak, did not know Battle Energy or Magic, but was willing to stand up for his family regardless of the consequences, and looking at his wounds and bloodstains, Yang Ling nodded, and thought of the Wizard Sect that he was about to establish!

The key to being a powerful Wizard Warrior was not about having a strong physical body, but about having a stubborn willpower. The physical body could be quickly strengthened with Wizardry but it was hard to increase one’s willpower within a short period!

Ramos might be physically weak, but he had the advantage of having strong willpower, enough to fulfill the basic requirement of becoming a Wizard Warrior. If he could pass the entrance test, Yang Ling did not mind taking him in as the first disciple!

“If you can pass the entrance test, and are not afraid of the hard training and many difficutlies, you can learn the ability to brew storms and overturn the seas with one pulse!” After falling silent for a while, Yang Ling continued lightly, “By then, don’t call me Tutor, call me Master Mentor!”
