Chapter 757: Another Hit

Lily completed the contracts, then Cleo instantly asked her to put away the pets and took her out of the shop.

They went straight to the assessment shop.

“Manager...”

“Hurry up and activate the test room!”

Cleo quickly gave orders.

Lily became excited and hopeful after seeing Cleo’s actions. She didn’t even dream that the dragons would have Class A aptitudes; she would be satisfied even if they were only Class B!

She wouldn’t suffer any losses even if they were Class C!

After all, Class C was quite normal; most of the pets on the market had Class C ratings. It was the most ordinary tier.

Class C was already acceptable, Class B was excellent, and Class A was a rarely-seen aptitude!

A couple of customers entered the shop right behind them. They had failed to squeeze into Su Ping’s shop and were eager to find out the newly bought pets’ aptitude.

Cleo noticed this but chose to ignore them. She wasn’t planning on hiding the assessment results either.

It never crossed her mind that all the pets being sold would be Class A, which was in line with the brown-haired young man’s reaction.

The guy had obviously been the lucky one to have picked an unidentified treasure, so he quickly ran off, fearing that the boss would try to recover the pet.

...

On the other side, inside Su Ping’s shop—

Once Lily and Cleo left the shop, the other customers were even more anxious, considering that two fewer Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons were available.

A middle-aged man at the front of the line hesitated for a moment but then gritted his teeth. “Boss, I’d like to buy three!”

He added, “I’d like three Void State Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons. Are they available?”

“Yes.” Su Ping nodded. He restated the buying policy, seeing that the man was a new customer. “You must establish contracts with the pets immediately, and you can’t resell or terminate those contracts in ten years. You have to request permission here if you must resell them. Do you accept the terms?”

The middle-aged man was obviously stunned, and so were the customers who hadn’t heard about this. How could there be such bizarre terms?

The pets would be mine after you sell them to me. Why do you care so much?

Su Ping ignored their doubts and simply stared at the customer.

The middle-aged man’s eyes flashed. He eventually gnashed his teeth and said, “I’d like to buy two then.”

He could only contract two more pets.

Su Ping nodded and asked Joanna to bring another pair of dragons.

“This one goes for 430 million, and that one is 440 million,” Su Ping said.

Around four hundred million again?

All the customers were shocked. Were all the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons in Su Ping’s shop pegged at that price?

If they were sold for four hundred million, how much did they cost when they were bought?

“This shop doesn’t accept installments. Can you pay up front?” asked Su Ping.

“No problem.” The middle-aged man nodded.

“Boss, I’ll pay five hundred million!” someone behind shouted, trying to bid for the pet.

Some of the other customers joined the bidding and made more offers.

“I’ll pay eight hundred million!”

“One billion!”

“One billion fifty!”

Soon after, the price rose to 1.5 billion, which was the market price for Void State Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons.

The price could actually go higher, but the brown-haired young man’s confusing and hasty departure made many people feel that everything was just a publicity stunt.

If that was the case, it was unlikely that the rest of the dragons would have a similar aptitude.

That was the most logical scenario. How could a pet shop owner be dumb enough to sell a Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon with Class A aptitude so cheaply?

The middle-aged man looked awful once he heard the onslaught of biddings. He couldn’t pay three billion up front for the two pets at the moment.

Su Ping glanced at the customers but didn’t try to stop them. He finally spoke when no one proposed a higher bid, “I get to decide the prices in my shop! Not a coin more, not a coin less! Like I said, if you want them, come here early, and immediately establish contracts with the pets!”

His announcement stunned everybody.

All the customers looked at Su Ping in disbelief.

They couldn’t believe what they had just heard!

He wouldn’t sell the pets for 1.5 billion each?

Two of them would add to three billion. He would only make 970 million with the current price. The gap was over two billion!

Is this shop really open to make money?

Is it actually doing charity?

Or is this some sort of novel marketing approach?

While faced with eyes of disbelief and confusion, Su Ping looked at the middle-aged man and asked, “Do you have the money? Pay up if you do.”

The middle-aged man was also stunned.

He thought that the pets would belong to someone else. Little did he expect that Su Ping would insist on the original price.

If he weren’t sure he wasn’t connected to Su Ping’s shop whatsoever, he would have suspected that the latter had hired him to act out the purchase and thus attract everyone’s attention!

Even though he was confused and lost, the middle-aged man didn’t hesitate, fearing that Su Ping might regret his decision.

He quickly paid with his phone.

Once he received the money, Su Ping checked his balance and said calmly, “Go and settle the contracts.”

The middle-aged man nervously walked to where the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons were, only to find that they had sharp and brutal eyes. They seemed to be excellent beasts.

Had it not been for their low prices, they would have attracted the attention of many people.

He quickly completed the contracts and sent the dragons to his contract space.

“Thank you, boss.”

After expressing his gratitude, the middle-aged man left for the assessment shop, intent to find out why the pets were so cheap.

Once the man left, the second person in line—who was a Void State man with deep eye sockets—said, “I’d like to buy a Fate State Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon!”

Su Ping looked at the Fate State Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon nearby. A price soon popped up in his head.

“990 million!” said Su Ping.

Everybody was shocked once again.

A Fate State pet being sold for just a billion?

It’s a dragon!

Even a mediocre subdragon would have been much more expensive if it reached the Fate State!

The man was also stunned for a moment. He wasn’t too delighted by the reply; rather, it made him frown. He would have been happy if the price was slightly lower compared to other shops. However, it was so low that he felt uncomfortable, as if he were buying a flawed pet.

“Boss, is there something wrong with this pet?” the man asked straight away.

Su Ping raised his eyebrows and replied casually, “No. The only problem would be that it’s not strong enough.”

Many people misconstrued his words.

Not strong enough? Are you implying that it’s extremely weak?

That’s like the biggest problem possible!

The man’s frown deepened as he asked, “How weak is it? Can it defeat its peers?”

“It can defeat the normal ones,” said Su Ping. “But there’s nothing it can do in front of Star State enemies.”

“...”

The man was at a loss for words.

I wasn’t asking you if it could fight a Star State enemy!

He didn’t even consider the possibility, as the pet was unlikely to have an Class S aptitude, which could allow it to defeat enemies one level higher!

The rest of the customers in the shop thought the same; they were also rendered speechless.

“Do you want it?” Su Ping asked with a slight frown.

The middle-aged man thought for a moment and shook his head. “Never mind...”

Hardly had he said that when exclamations burst out on the street.

“Another Class A rating!”

“Oh my god, another Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon with Class A aptitude!”

“It’s unbelievable! Two pets with Class A aptitude have emerged on this street the same day!”

The people in Su Ping’s shop were dumbfounded by the exclamations.

Another Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon with Class A aptitude?

“Let’s go there and find out!”

“I think the commotion is happening at the assessment shop.”

The customers who were too behind in the line—and knew they didn’t have a chance—were distracted by the noises and left the shop.

More and more customers at the end of the line decided to leave the shop.

...

The assessment shop was crowded with customers again.

Everyone present was looking at the testing pillar in the lobby, which was emitting an astounding purple light.

Very soon, the data displayed gradually stabilized in the purple area.

The final rating was... Class A!

Not A-, but straight A!

There were three levels in the same rating, namely +, straight, and -.

The ratings without + or – meant it was the nominal value.

That Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon turned out to have an even greater aptitude than the previous one!

More importantly, since it had a straight A aptitude, it also meant that it was a different dragon!

The shop had assessed two pets with Class A aptitudes in one day. It was unbelievable!

“Well...”

The purple haired Cleo behind the counter was gazing at the readings on the device in her hands, too shocked to speak.

Lily—who was shorter than her but still taller than most girls—was equally stunned.

It was a Class A beast!

The pet being tested was one of the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons she had just bought!

It was beyond her expectations. The pet turned out to be even stronger than the A- Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon that caused a hit earlier!

After a few minutes passed, Cleo was finally unable to hold back. “How is this possible?”

Yes, how was it possible?

A pet that only cost four hundred million had a Class A rating. She almost found it surreal.

Cleo suddenly had a thought and then had the second Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon tested.

Soon, the data of the second dragon was out.

It was A-!

Cleo held her breath when the indicator stopped in the purple sector. Considering her experience as the assessment shop owner, most pets that reached the purple area readings would have A ratings in the end!

Was it possible that both of the pets that Lily had bought would have an A Class?

If that was the case—considering the brown-haired young man’s pet, which was obviously bought in Su Ping’s shop, too—three Class A pets had been sold in a row!

To top it off, all those pets were Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons, the most popular pets!

Cleo had trouble breathing; what the shop had done was too horrifying.

“Let’s go to that shop right now! We’ll buy all the other pets no matter what!”

Cleo came to her senses after hearing all the exclamations in the lobby. Her usually cold and calm face was overflowing with madness.

Lily, who was standing next to her, was still stunned.

Her ears were ringing.

Never had she thought that, being a bottom-level member of the Ryan family, she would get the chance to have two Class A pets one day!

Most importantly, the pets were Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons which had a Star State bloodline!

She would be able to use the pets for a long time!

Whoosh!

While everybody exclaimed, Cleo flashed out of her shop and instantly reached the Pixie Pet Store through a secret spatial technique.
