Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

"Charles, is that really a Silver quality mystical beast egg?" Celestine, who had witnessed the entire situation, asked.

She couldn't see anything unusual about the mystical beast egg at all.

In Celestine's eyes, Charles had never touched the mystical beast egg, he simply relied on his sight to determine that it was disguised with special paint!

This completely shattered Celestine's understanding!

Charles nodded and said, "Yes, you'll see soon enough. According to the rules of the item exchange market, Zane will have to swallow this loss since he tried to steal my stuff."

Upon hearing Charles's words, Celestine realized that just moments ago, Charles was about to leave, but he returned to the stall after hearing Zane's snide remarks.

Did Charles already have everything planned out in just a second or two?

Celestine looked up at Charles's calm face, which showed no signs of triumph or mockery.

It seemed like everything was under his control, and all events were part of his plan. Zane had been led around by Charles.

Thinking he could annoy him, but he had no idea that Charles didn't even want that mystical beast egg.

Many people had witnessed what was happening, and they began to gather around.

Some appraisers came over to Zane's side, carefully examining the mystical beast egg to see if it was indeed as Charles had said.

"Looking at the appearance, the texture, and the overall feel of the mystical beast egg, it doesn't seem fake."

"Exactly, this should be a real Gold quality mystical beast egg. It might just have some flaws, which is why the price is lower."

"I can't see any issues. That young guy is so inexperienced, his judgment must be wrong!"

Listening to the discussions around him, Zane gradually felt more at ease. He held the alchemy potion in one hand and the mystical beast egg in the other, shouting at Charles:

"Open your eyes and look closely, Charles! This is a Gold quality mystical beast egg. Even if you don't admit it, it..."

Before Zane could finish his sentence, the mystical beast egg touched by the alchemy potion began to lose its color, gradually revealing its true hue in just a few breaths.

The onlookers widened their eyes, stunned by the scene before them, and they began to discuss among themselves:

"This... this really is just a Silver quality mystical beast egg!"

"Oh my God, I've never seen such a disguise before, I've never even heard of it!"

"Exactly, I can't believe they used special paint to disguise a Silver quality mystical beast egg as Gold quality."

"Who is this young man? At such a young age, his appraisal skills and experience are even stronger than mine!"

No one paid attention to Zane's dark expression. Many appraisers had already walked over to Charles, eager to seek his advice.

"Damn it! How dare he deceive me? Doesn't he know I'm from the Taylor family?" Zane was furious, not only because he had been tricked but also because he had once again lost face in front of Charles.

The truth had once again proven that Charles's judgment was correct. He had spent so many gold coins only to end up with a Silver quality mystical beast egg, one that was very likely unable to hatch!

And with so many witnesses around, Zane's foolishness would soon be known to others.

When that time came, people would look at him with pity and sympathy.

Thinking of this, Zane rushed toward the stall owner, who hadn't yet had a chance to escape, grabbed his collar, and punched him.

The scene immediately erupted into chaos, and several people responsible for maintaining order rushed over to separate the two.

Meanwhile, Daniel Long, the president of the Genosha branch of the Seven Kingdoms Merchant Association, hurried over, shouting:

"Stop! Who dares to act so recklessly and disrupt the rules of the item exchange market?"

When he spotted Zane, Daniel Long's expression darkened. He listened to reports from his subordinates as he approached Zane.

Daniel Long calmly said, "Zane, even if you are from the Taylor family, you must adhere to the rules of the Seven Kingdoms Merchant Association!"

"This person deceived me, claiming that was a Gold quality mystical beast egg, but it turned out to be just a Silver quality one!" Zane retorted, his eyes filled with anger.

"Rules are rules. Once a transaction is completed, it cannot be altered. It's your misjudgment, so you can't blame others." Daniel Long understood that Zane had been deceived, but the Seven Kingdoms Merchant Association had its rules.

In the item exchange market, there were both fakes and real items. If one wanted to buy high-value items at low prices, they naturally had to bear the associated risks!

If Zane were allowed to disrupt the rules, no one would dare to come to the item exchange market in the future.

"Let's go, calm down and also compensate the stall owner for some medical expenses." Daniel Long's aura exploded, he was actually a Level Seven Beast Master.

Under the pressure of a Level Seven Beast Master, Zane became more aware. He looked at Charles with some reluctance.

Unexpectedly, Charles spoke up, saying, "I really learned something today. Are all the people from the Taylor family this unreasonable and rule-breaking?"

Under Charles's lead, the onlookers began to discuss among themselves:

"Exactly, knowing the rules of the item exchange market, and still behaving like this is just embarrassing."

"I think Charles is right, Zane is just foolish and can't take a loss."

"Is it really that hard to admit you made a mistake? Wanting to gain without taking any risks—there's no such thing in this world."

Zane clenched his fists tightly, struggling to hold back the urge to teach Charles a lesson right there.

But thinking of his father Benson's warning, Zane took a deep breath and dismissed the thought, feeling immense regret.

Why did he have to provoke Charles?

If he had just pretended not to see Charles earlier, he wouldn't have been so humiliated. Not only did he lose face, but he also lost over ten gold coins that he had worked so hard to save!

For Zane, the consequences were even more serious. In front of so many people, he had brought shame to the Taylor family. When he returned home, he would undoubtedly face punishment from his father, the family head!

Charles slightly lowered his head and quietly said to Celestine, who was staring wide-eyed beside him, "I'm quite skilled in appraisals. If you see anything you like later, just let me know, and I'll help you take a look."

Celestine nodded. Her admiration for Charles was beyond words.

In her mind, Charles was not only a genius in Beast Mastery but also capable of refining miracle drugs, forging equipment, and had such impressive appraisal skills.

So many people had failed to notice the issues with the mystical beast egg, yet Charles had figured it out with just one glance.

It was simply perfect!

"By the way, Charles, were you looking at that mystical beast egg to prepare for becoming a Level Four Beast Master in the future?" Celestine recalled that Charles had come straight here, likely preparing for what lay ahead.

Charles scratched his head and slowly replied, "Not exactly. I just broke through to Level Four Beast Master and wanted to see if there were any suitable mystical beast eggs."

"I thought so... Wait, what did you just say? You're a Level Four Beast Master now?" Celestine initially didn't register the information.

It was only halfway through her sentence that she realized Charles had already become a Level Four Beast Master.

Charles nodded and said, "I just broke through, I haven't had a chance to tell anyone else yet."

Celestine's eyes lit up as she cautiously asked, "So, am I the first to know?"

"Yes, let's go. We can check out some other things." Without giving it much thought, Charles led Celestine to other stalls.

He didn't notice that Celestine's face was filled with joy, and she kept softly repeating, "I'm the first, I'm the first..."

Not just Celestine, but many others saw Charles leaving and quickly followed him.

These were people interested in Charles's appraisal skills, curious about what he would buy next.

Charles wasn't concerned about the others. He was focused on the information prompts appearing before him, searching for something special.

Finally, he stopped in front of a stall.

As soon as he did, those who were following him brightened up and crowded around, carefully examining the items on display.

The stall had very few items—only five—consisting of some strange objects, like a basketball-sized stone and a branch about the length of an arm.

The rest were three pieces of worn-out equipment that had no special features whatsoever.

Someone spoke up to their companions, "What's going on? Is my skill level too low? It seems like there's nothing good here."

"I think so too. Is there something special inside that stone?"

"How is that possible? Can the human eye see what's inside a stone? Don't be silly."

Charles approached the stall owner and directly asked, "How much do I need to pay if I buy everything here?"

Hearing this, the stall owner widened his eyes, it was the first time he encountered a customer wanting to buy everything.

Looking at the people around him who were constantly discussing, the stall owner realized that there must be something special on his stall that had caught this person's attention.

He tried to identify what the special item could be, but after a long look, he found nothing.

Charles spoke up again, "Are you selling or not? If not, I'm leaving."

"Yes, yes, yes! Of course, I'll sell it! How about five gold coins in total?" The stall owner, fearing that Charles would walk away, quickly responded.

Charles didn't haggle, he simply pulled out five gold coins and handed them to the stall owner, saying, "Alright, you can go now. This stall is mine."

The stall owner excitedly nodded while holding the coins and hurriedly left the stall.

Amidst the confused gazes of the crowd, Charles pointed to the cloth at the bottom of the stall and said, "Eighth-grade ferocious beast hide, thirty gold coins. Is anyone interested?"
