The Thorn Grass was recognized as one of the least valuable pets.
Not because it was weak, but because its upper limit was too low.
Generally speaking, through natural growth, species that could reach the ordinary level with a chance less than 50% could be evaluated as having no contract value.
As for the Thorn Grass, through observation and research, only one out of every ten could grow to the Ordinary level, far below this standard.
As for the probability of growing to the elite level, it was even lower.
In addition, once a Beast Tamer contracted a pet, it was extremely difficult to change it. Therefore, most people would not waste their contract slot on Thorn Grass. After all, the probability of it growing to the elite level was too low.
This was also why the students had such a reaction after knowing that Su Yi had contracted a Thorn Grass.
With this student taking the lead, several people in the class could not help but express their opinions.
"Why did you contract the Thorn Grass? Even if you like wood-type pets, you can contract the Vampiric Vine. Isn't this better than the Thorn Grass?"
"Su Yi, you're wasting the contract slot. I can only wish you good luck. I hope this Thorn Grass can grow to the Ordinary level."
"Brother, isn't Senior Bai Zhining's Stormbird an elite-level pet? With its protection, you can totally go deep into the forest to look for a better pet. Why are you in a hurry to contract it?"
"Yeah. We've got another day tomorrow. What's the rush? If it was me, I'd rather not contract until I meet the right one."
"Su Yi's Thorn Grass is very powerful. It's not as weak as you think. The Silver Ring Snake and the Poison Arrow Frog are not its match. It even defeated a Forest Jackal today. Even Senior Bai Zhining said that his Thorn Grass is very outstanding and has a chance of growing to the elite level."
This message was obviously sent by Zhang Xiaotong.
Seeing that there was hope of growing to the elite level, the class group chat exploded.
"Is it real? Wouldn't that be similar to the Dune Lizard I spent 180,000 yuan on at the Beast Mall?"
"It seems that only one in a thousand Thorn Grasses can grow to the elite level. If it's true, then Su Yi's luck is too good!"
"May I ask, Senior Bai Zhining is only a high school student, right? Is her evaluation accurate?"
"I really don't know if it's guaranteed. At least she's more reliable than us."
"Su Yi, come out and say something. Let us see your Thorn Grass."
…
Su Yi was not angry when he saw the scrolling messages. He hesitated for a moment before sending a photo of the Thorn Grass that he had taken in the afternoon to the class group.
After a moment's thought, he added, "It's an interesting little creature. I'm very pleased to have contracted it."
"…"
"…"
"…"
"You're awesome. I can't compare to him."
Seeing that he was so calm, no one in the class group chat teased him anymore. The topic quickly shifted elsewhere.
After exploring the Lake Forest for a day, many people could not wait to share their experiences in the group.
In the mystic realm, there was only the local area network. Other than communicating with his classmates, he could not find anything else to kill time. Therefore, Su Yi decided to be a monitor and silently browse through the chat messages of his classmates.
Half an hour later, he closed the class group with a grim expression.
Through the chat messages of these students, he learned a lot of information.
Although these people looked relaxed in the group, because it was their first time exploring the mystic realm, many people in the class were injured. It was said that several people in the other classes were seriously injured and were urgently sent out of the mystic realm!
The Lake Forest was a low-risk mystic realm that had been completely explored. Moreover, each class had teachers and seniors protecting them. Under such circumstances, there were actually several casualties!
It was really a little scary!
"Beast Tamer is indeed a high-risk profession."
Su Yi sighed slightly, his heart heavy. He was clearly not prepared for danger.
Although he had long known that all Beast Taming Schools, like the army, had a casualty rate that allowed for certain casualties during the learning process,
However, knowing and seeing were two different things.
At this moment, he finally understood that every Beast Tamer was a warrior.
In fact, after Year Two, the school would train them completely according to the standards of the army, even more strictly than the army.
Especially the students who chose the combat specialization, they were trained according to the standards of the special forces!
"Forget it. I should not think about it too much. Let's get things done for now."
Su Yi shook off these messy thoughts and hesitated for a moment before entering treasure hunting mode again.
1.1 kilometers southeast, low-level secret treasure discovered!
When he first entered the mystic realm, the system had already given him a notification, but he had never found an opportunity to search for it.
"Will I be in danger if I sneak out now?"
A thought suddenly appeared in Su Yi's mind, but he quickly rejected it.
It was pitch-black outside the safety station, and visibility was extremely low. With his current strength, if he ran into the wilderness, he would most likely become food for some extraordinary creature.
He was not Thorn Grass, who could burrow underground to avoid danger…
Right, Thorn Grass!
He thought of something and his eyes lit up.
Now that he had a pet, why would he need to personally search for treasures? Wouldn't it be fine if he just instructed Thorn Grass to retrieve that treasure?
Thorn Grass was originally a native here and had the ability to burrow into the ground. It would almost never encounter danger in the Lake Forest. It was far safer than him running over to search for it himself!
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and immediately summoned the Thorn Grass.
Thorn Grass was originally trying its best to absorb spiritual energy in the Beast Taming Space when it was suddenly summoned by him. It was clearly a little dissatisfied and immediately waved its thorny vines at him.
"Sorry to trouble you again. I have a very important mission for you. It shouldn't be difficult for you," Su Yi said seriously.
Another mission?
Thorn Grass was even more dissatisfied. It had fought more than twenty battles during the day and its spiritual energy was almost exhausted. It did not expect to have a mission at night.
What was it regarded as? A tireless donkey?
Without thinking, it sent resistance, frustration, and anger to Su Yi.
Seeing that it seemed to be really tired, Su Yi was a little embarrassed, but after hesitating for a moment, he spoke.
"It's not a battle this time. I just want you to help me retrieve something. This thing is very important. It's directly related to my ability to buy Energy Water and Vegetation Essence Fruits for you in the future."
Water of energy!
Vegetation Essence Fruit!
No doubt, the Thorn Grass understood.
Then it curled itself into a twist, as if in a dilemma.
Su Yi was in no hurry and just looked at it quietly.
After a long moment, the Thorn Grass finally uncurled and indignantly transmitted its decision—Agree!
