Chapter 490 - 484: Dragonscale Cold Claw

“Of course!”

Lilith Hoyle waved her hand, not saying anything more, and turned to leave this room that made her feel old and stuffy.

“This girl’s intuition is quite accurate!”

After a long time, Gwendoline’s sigh suddenly resounded in the silent room.

There are many geniuses in the Flowery Kingdom, like carps swimming across the river. Logically, a genius like David Jones shouldn’t have attracted the attention of the old fellows in the Trainer Guild.

However, there are always exceptions, and David’s growth experience couldn’t withstand deliberate scrutiny.

Especially his dragon training affinity, which made even Dragon-wielding Dragoons envious, and his contracted Dragon Pet, which is beyond comprehension for ordinary trainers.

If it weren’t for Lilith blocking the way, there might have been Legendary Powerful Ones visiting to check on David’s water meter already!!

Although the Black Dragon Saint Spirit is not among the Dragons, it is just a side move laid out by the senior members of the Trainer Guild to let David enter the game.

If David happens to succeed, then it would be a great joyous event that would shake the nation, and David would soar with the status of Black Dragon Saint envoy, stepping into the top echelon of power in the Flowery Kingdom and possessing a transcendent status above the Legendary Powerful Ones.

But if he fails, it is a matter of course. After all, the Guild only needs to block the information about the Saint Spirit, without paying any price. There are many failed trainers, and one more David would not make a difference.

“This country needs me, and I can still hold on for another fifty years!”

Having said that, Gwendoline stretched out her shaky arm and stuffed a Thousand-Petals Orchid next to her into her mouth, causing her wrinkled cheeks to flush slightly.

On the other side, on the third floor of Star Moon Commerce Guild.

David Jones and Grau arrived at a magnificent auction venue, built almost entirely of water mirror jade, under the guidance of a Guild official.

After walking inside for about ten minutes, Edward Brightwill stopped at a counter guarded by dozens of strict Trainers and began to introduce it to David.

“This is the third floor’s Dragon Weapon, a Class VII S tier Dragon/Ice dual type Epic arcane implement called ‘Dragonscale Cold Claw,’ personally crafted by Mr. Ronald Goldsmith, a Level I Professor and Blacksmith Grandmaster at Peony Colledge. It has extremely strong armor-breaking and ice-sealing abilities.”

“There are also two Level VII Ice-type Magic Cores embedded in these Dragon Claws. If a Dragon/Ice dual-type Dragon Pet wears these claws, their strength is bound to increase, and even defeating higher-level opponents is not impossible.”

“So-called Dragon Weapon is a Pet Arm forged from Dragon Claws and other Ice-type Beast Magic Cores. It’s a bit disappointing.”

David looked at the Dragonscale Cold Claw on the counter, which had attributes that fit with Rainbow, but he was not very interested.

Although the Dragonscale Cold Claw looked good and could greatly improve Rainbow’s combat effectiveness, it could not be used in Pet battles and the Beast Refining Tower, only in outdoor adventures and some events that allowed the use of Pet Arms.

Of course, the prohibitive price of these Dragon Claws was also a reason for David to be discouraged.

After all, the price of this Dragonscale Cold Claw, as the treasure of the auction, must not be low.

Just the price listed on the counter was enough to make the Epic Strong Ones hesitate repeatedly before buying this piece of armor, let alone a Beast Taming Genius like David.

“Auction reserve price: One Class VII Epic Dragon Ball of any type or one bottle of Level VII elixir.

Note: Star coin transactions are not accepted, and only the barter auction method is accepted, the higher bidder wins.”

“It seems that Mr. Ronald Goldsmith is also a Dragoon!” David thought in his heart.

Using Dragon Claws that fall off after a True Dragon evolves to forge weapons for sale, and earning high-level resources, this Blacksmithing Grandmaster is indeed good at making money.

Just then, David noticed a gaze cast upon him and couldn’t help but look up.

It was an elegant young man in a brocade robe, with a stern-looking strongman in a butler’s attire protecting him.

Seeing the young man nod his head with a smile and greet him, David Jones’s brow furrowed slightly, and he glanced over at Edward Brightwill.

“Are there any other auction items worth recommending?”

Seeing David ignore him, the handsome young man wasn’t angry but grew even more interested.

“Master, do you need me to investigate his background?” the butler said, bowing his head.

“No need, it’s rare to meet an interesting guy, and it wouldn’t be fun if I knew everything about him.” The young man closed his fan.

As the young master of the Goldsmith family, the future heir of Star Moon Commerce Guild, and a renowned King Beastmaster in Peony City, Wayne Goldsmith was for the first time sensing danger from a younger boy.

This odd feeling intrigued him greatly.

On the other hand, seeing David’s calm demeanor, Edward Brightwill, who was responsible for reception, was shocked.

He didn’t expect David to be so indifferent to the Dragonscale Cold Claw, which was a rare treasure in his mind. Truly worthy of being Grandmaster Hoyle’s disciple!

He quickly bowed, and carefully said, “There are none, the auction items more precious than the Dragonscale Cold Claw will be focused on tonight’s auction.”

“Alright, then there’s no need for Mr. Brightwill to show us around, my brothers and I will just wander around ourselves.”

Edward Brightwill glanced at the giant dragon in David’s arms, not daring to refute him. He whispered his agreement and slowly stepped back.

“The auction items on this floor are all held through silent auctions. We’ll just stroll around here, and the one who finds the biggest leak wins.” David Jones whispered.

Since he had come here anyway, and since he couldn’t afford to buy the clearly priced Epic arcane implement, he might as well buy some Dragon resources that would help his pet grow.

“No problem.” Grau snorted and didn’t mention the stakes of winning and losing.

“Picking up leaks? At my family’s auction house, do you think the grandmaster identifier hired by the Star Moon Commerce Guild is just here for show?” Wayne Goldsmith raised an eyebrow, making the first move to strike up a conversation in his life.

“This is Wayne Goldsmith, the Young Master of the Star Moon Commerce Guild.”

“Wayne Goldsmith?”

Hearing the familiar name, Grau raised its head in surprise.

If his memory was correct, Wayne Goldsmith was the prodigy who had led the Peony College team to the national championship five years ago, surpassing Rosewood College.

“King Beastmaster!”

Sensing the arcane aura emanating from Wayne Goldsmith, Grau’s face showed no surprise.

For such gifted geniuses, the Sixth Order King, which ordinary beastmasters view as a lifelong dream, is only the beginning, not the end.

David scrutinized Wayne Goldsmith curiously, realizing it was the young man who had observed him earlier, and whispered, “My name is David Jones. May I ask what you want?”

“I heard you guys talking about picking up leaks at the Star Moon Auction House. I was wondering if I could join in on something so interesting?” Wayne Goldsmith said with a playful smile on his face.

“It’s just a joke between my brothers and I,” David replied with a gentle refusal.

He had no interest in playing around with a stranger from a rich family.

Wayne Goldsmith looked deeply at David Jones, “In that case, never mind.”

He then turned and left without hesitation, showing the demeanor of a refined gentleman.
