Chapter 96: The Primordial Area of the Changbai Mountains

Ordinary people could only buy sprites from Sprite Care Houses or Free-Ranging Centers.

They were all common sprites.

Among them, the ones with higher cultivation potential were Little Charcoal Tortoise and Long-Armed Gibbon.

Little Charcoal Tortoise fulfilled the first two requirements of Su Hao’s contract.

It could resist and ride.

However, its speed was too slow, and its final form couldn’t display its battle power in a narrow place.

The Little Stone Elephant’s evolved form, the Armored Elephant, could ride, resist, and its speed wasn’t slow. However, its final evolved form, the Elephant General, couldn’t ride anymore.

“How about Salted Fish King?”

Salted Fish King was only at the first stage of evolution. After it evolved, it would turn into a “Giant Leviathan”. Not only could it resist and ride, it could also fly.

It was just that the evolution difficulty was too high.

It was impossible to complete evolution before the College Entrance Examination.

He gave up both options.

Su Hao searched for ways to purchase rare and high-quality sprites on the forum.

“After you enter a university normally, you can buy some high-quality sprites with the help of the school’s channels and resources.”

“Competitions within university schools, or between schools reward pretty good sprites.”

“Especially the High School League…”

He still remembered that the previous High School League had rewarded each person from the champion team with a Puerile Turkey. It was the final evolved form of Fiery Bird, also known as the Phoenix’s relative and it was extremely strong.

“If you really can’t find one that you’re satisfied with, you’ll have to wait until college before contracting a third sprite.”

Su Hao came from an ordinary family background and didn’t have much connections. Of course, if he went to Master Chen Ping, it probably wouldn’t be difficult for him to get a rare sprite.

Master Chen Ping was still in his contact list.

They just weren’t familiar with each other.

He was used to being on his own.

At most, he would seek help occasionally.

He browsed through and indeed found some news about sprites for sale.

“Selling a Moss Turtle bred by the Ten-Thousand Vine Turtle. Certified by the Union. Legitimate background. Please send me a private message if interested.”

The so-called legitimate background referred to sprites that hadn’t been contracted or stolen.

Sprites for private sales and transactions needed certification from the local Association of Sprite Trainers to avoid any problems.

Su Hao had seen the news before.

A rich businessman bought a rare sprite “Dream Demon” for his 16-year-old son from the black market.

Yet his son couldn’t contract it no matter what.

In the end, he discovered that the “Dream Demon” had once been contracted. After the contract, the sprite was snatched by hunters, and the contractor was killed. It was then circulated to the black market and bought by rich merchants.

As a high school student with a bright future, Su Hao had absolutely no intention of buying one at the black market.

But there were too few Sprite Trainers selling sprites on the forum.

Perhaps he didn’t find the right route.

“After all, real rare sprites have long been pre-ordered and haven’t been sold to the market at all. Most of the elite Sprite Trainers who come from grassroots backgrounds look for sprite contracts themselves in the New World.”

The sprites of the New World did not come from the same source as Planet Aquamarine.

It was very difficult to contract those sprites due to the repelling of human breath, but it wasn’t entirely impossible.

There was no need to think about the adulthood stage. As long as the methods were good, there was a possibility of kidnapping even the newborn sprite.

But…

“I still don’t have the ability to move freely in the New World!”

Su Hao didn’t really want to either.

Life was more important.

It’s better to go to the New World after I have two to three or four elites. It’s safer.

He thought about it and typed in the search “wild sprites in Dragon Nation” again.

The search results on the Union’s intranet were reliable, real, and had no advertisements.

Su Hao looked at them one by one.

He couldn’t conceal his disappointment.

“If one’s luck is good in the wilderness, one can bump into wild sprites, but they are pretty much common sprites in the Sprite Care House. The difficulty of finding a rare high-end sprite in the wild is no less than getting the first prize in the lottery.”

Su Hao shook his head. “Unless it’s in the primordial forest.”

Now that he had come into contact with the industry, he understood it even more.

He knew that not only were wild sprites captured from the New World and released into the primordial area, there were also Planet Aquamarine sprites there.

Those were mostly sprites that were harder to contract.

For example, the former Little Fire Crow.

“If I didn’t successfully contract Little Fire Crow back then, it would most likely be sent to a certain primitive area. So, it would be best if I can enter a certain primordial area to look for a suitable sprite contract.”

Even the Sprite Care House had to spend money to buy sprites.

Of course, not just anyone could enter the primordial area.

The joint examination merely opened to them an area that had just introduced new world sprites.

“Let me see. The primordial areas of the Green Blue Forest are only open to the public from June to September every year. There are also limited slots.”

“The primordial area of Flaming Mountain requires a recommendation to enter.”

“Ximu Town’s primordial area is too ordinary. Those who have been there all left negative reviews, so I’ll just give it up.”

“The primordial area of Changbai Mountain is one of the top three primordial districts in the Dragon Nation, but I can’t go there either… wait a minute, the primordial area is hiring Sprite Cultivators to do a local Sprite Ecology Survey. They’ve also invited a well-known high-level Sprite Cultivator…”

Su Hao touched his chin.

He saw the rewards as well as the benefit of getting to contract sprites.

He decisively submitted his resume.

He took another look. Whoa, there were quite a lot of Sprite Cultivators who wanted to go as well.

Their greed was different from his.

He was just craving for the sprites in the primordial area. On the other hand, they were craving for the advanced Sprite Cultivator who was leading the team. They were craving for his knowledge and nobility!

There were too many competitors.

Su Hao had a slight headache.

“It seems like my resume isn’t that outstanding either.”

He just emerged number one in the Sprite Cultivator assessment area.

He merely discovered the evolution pathway of Reverie Butterfly.

He only wrote a few theses for important journals.

In order to ensure a spot, while waiting for a reply, Su Hao conveniently applied for the mid-level Sprite Cultivator assessment.

The difference between intermediate and elementary was experience.

The intermediate-level examination was simpler than the elementary-level examination.

There was no need to take part in the comprehensive test.

He only needed to submit the cultivation plan he had completed, his work experience, etc, to the examiners for review.

After the verification was passed, he had an online question-and-answer session with three mid- and high-level Sprite Cultivator examiners.

The requirement for the verification was mainly the quantity and quality of the proposed plan.

The quantity… Su Hao had received orders during the winter holidays, but it was not much.

It was barely enough.

The main factor was quality. All of them were excellent.

In reality, Sprite Cultivators weren’t omnipotent. All of them had their own specialties in cultivating sprites or types of sprites.

A certain Sprite Cultivator was good at cultivating turtle-type sprites. Thus, the cultivation plan he designed for a Wood Mantis would somewhat be worse.

Su Hao was especially comprehensive.

He was extremely excellent, making the examiners suspect for a moment that it was a bought plan.

In the final online question-and-answer session, the examiners had tricky questions, but Su Hao answered them easily.

After more than a month of self-study, he would be able to enroll in the entry-level Sprite Cultivator assessment.

Now that he had self-learned for nearly half a year and his interface had also been upgraded, wasn’t it reasonable and logical that he could get into the mid-level Sprite Cultivator assessment?

He was a genius!

“OK, it’s done. In a few days, I’ll be an honorable mid-level Sprite Cultivator. Should I submit my resume again?”

As he was thinking, he realized that there was already a reply in his inbox.

…

A week later.

Su Hao ditched the school curriculum again. He took the high-speed rail to the primitive area of Changbai Mountain.
