There were also those who were worried for Lin Jin.
"Sister Qing, what should we do?" Even though He Yu didn't know much about beast appraisals, she knew that this was no laughing matter. If this was messed up, his reputation would be ruined. As a beast appraiser, Lin Jin's reputation was of utmost importance. If he messed up, he would never be able to hold his head up high in the beast appraiser's profession.
This was a lesson learned from the mistakes of others.
However, He Qing's reaction surprised Lin Jin.
"Sister Yu, don't worry. Appraiser Lin is Curator's disciple. Based on this fact alone, forget five pet beasts, even five more wouldn't be a problem for him."
He Qing had complete confidence in Lin Jin.
Or rather, He Qing didn't have confidence in Lin Jin, but in 'Curator'.
In He Qing's heart, the Curator was invincible and omnipotent. He had already become the person that He Qing worshipped the most, and that worship had reached a fanatical level. Therefore, she had to support the Curator's disciple, and he definitely had the means to solve any problem.
He Yu shook her head.
Although she knew Lin Jin had extraordinary skills, beast appraising was beast appraising and leveling up was leveling up. The two were completely different. Not to mention, helping a pet beast he had never seen before to evolve under such circumstances was no longer a problem that could be solved with skills.
After all, no matter how clueless He Yu was, she knew that different pet beasts had different bloodlines and potentials. Even among the same bloodline, there were differences in their individual characteristics. There was no standard way to evolve a pet beast. Ten thousand beasts meant ten thousand different methods.
To help five pet beasts evolve under such circumstances, He Yu knew that a Rank 3 beast appraiser couldn't do it. Perhaps a Rank 4 beast appraiser could.
However, in the Jade Dragon Kingdom, the highest they could achieve was a Rank 3 beast appraiser. Only premium countries had Rank 4 beast appraisers.
However, He Yu didn't tell He Qing this. Now that He Qing was in a fanatic state, she wouldn't listen to anything she said.
He Yu looked at Lin Jin and sighed. At the same time, she was trying to think of a way to help Lin Jin.
Meanwhile, Lin Jin's expression remained calm as if he didn't 'realize' what kind of hopeless situation he was about to face.
To other beast appraisers, this was a hopeless situation.
Five 'lucky people' and five 'lucky beasts' were brought over.
Among these five people, there were commoners at the bottom of society, and there were also people dressed in embroidered robes. They seemed to have some status, at the very least, they were from wealthy families.
When the five of them came up, they bowed and saluted. All of them were extremely excited. Some of them were even at a loss of what to do, not knowing where to put their hands.
The five pet beasts stayed by their master's side.
Only then did Lin Jin glance over.
Four dogs and a horned turtle.
Most families had pet beasts that were dogs. Of course, canine beasts were also a subspecies of wolf beasts. There were many types of canine beasts with different body shapes, appearances, and even habits.
These four hound beasts were all different from each other. Some of them were small in size, but they were as strong as bulls, with short fur and a large head. Some of them had fur like manes and a tail like a broom. Others had long and sharp ears, a long mouth, and long legs.
There was also one that looked completely like a mongrel. Standing on the stage, it was actually shivering, and its eyes were filled with grievance.
That Horned Tortoise was indeed something.
Horned turtles came in different sizes and this one wasn't small at all. It was half the height of a human and had a thick shell. It could already use the power of the five elements, and its mouth was like a steel hook. It was also a Rank 2 pet beast.
Seeing how calm Lin Jin was, Emperor He Qian knew that Lin Jin must be confident so he didn't say anything else. He could tell how difficult it was for Lin Jin to achieve this. If Lin Jin could do it, no one would say that there was anything wrong with his edict. Instead, He Qian would be praised.
Lin Jin was the same. As long as he could pass this test today, he could rise to become Jade Dragon Kingdom's number one beast appraiser.
He Qian wasn't making this up. Just take these five pet beasts for example. Which beast appraiser in headquarters could evolve all of them?
Even veteran beast appraisers like Tan Xun and Chu Chenghe couldn't do it.
Hence, he could give Lin Jin the title of Jade Dragon Kingdom's number one beast appraiser.
'Curator 'would probably be happy with this, wouldn't he?'
He Qian was currently thinking about this matter.
Also, Lin Jin had promised to invite 'Curator' here so this matter had to be taken seriously. He Qian knew that this might decide whether Jade Dragon Kingdom could become a premium country in the future.
Of course, there were risks too. He Qian was worried about Patriarch Xue Pao but it was thanks to this that he had the chance to meet Curator.
"Appraiser Lin, you may begin," the temple attendant reminded him softly. The temple attendant reminded him softly. He was really afraid of messing things up today, but he had to carry on.
Lin Jin nodded.
Then, he walked over, chose a Rank 1 hound beast, and patted its head.
This was just an average hound beast with no bloodline or potential. Under normal circumstances, it would never be able to evolve into a Rank 2 beast.
But things were different with Lin Jin.
Lin Jin patted the second hound beast. To others, it was just a casual pat on the head. Just like that, he did the same thing all the way up to the last horned turtle. No more, no less, just a pat on each one.
After he was done, Lin Jin said, "Alright, you may leave."
The crowd was puzzled.
The same went for the five pet beasts' owners. They wanted to ask but didn't dare. The process hadn't even begun yet so why was he asking them to leave?
He Qian didn't understand either.
The temple attendant was stunned. He couldn't help but remind Lin Jin, "Well, Appraiser Lin, you can begin the evolution now."
He thought Lin Jin had forgotten.
"I'm done evolving." Lin Jin's answer silenced the crowd.
Immediately, there was a flurry of discussion.
Some shook their heads while others wanted to say something but couldn't due to the situation. But deep down, they were all thinking the same thing.'You just patted the pet beast's head and you're saying it's done? '
'Isn't this a joke … '
Before the crowd could finish their thoughts, the next instant, the five pet beasts on stage underwent a transformation at the same time.
Three of the Rank 1 hound beasts suddenly burst into flames. The crowd took a few steps back in fright. When they looked at the three hound beasts again, their auras skyrocketed and flames swirled around their bodies. Anyone with some common sense would know that the biggest feature of a Rank 1 pet beast's evolution to Rank 2 was the ability to utilize elemental powers.
Needless to say, the fact that they could emit flames meant that the pet beast had evolved.
What was even more shocking was that the two Rank 2 pet beasts, a hound beast and a horned tortoise, let out continuous howls.
The next instant, the Rank 2 hound beast's fur fell off. At the same time, the sound of its bones growing could be heard. Meanwhile, the horned tortoise's shell cracked and fell off. Like an aging wall, it shattered into pieces. It also seemed like the tortoise's body had grown in size, bursting out of its shell.
At the same time, the auras of the two Rank 2 pet beasts rose steadily as elemental powers surged around them.
Not far away, Tan Xun's eyes widened.
"They've been reborn. This … this is really an evolution."
When the crowd heard Appraiser Tan Xun's words, they were even more certain of their suspicions.
This was an evolution. Moreover, it was five pet beasts evolving at the same time. Many of them had never seen something like this in their entire lives.
Today was an eye-opener for them.
"Oh my god, did they really evolve?"
"Five pet beasts evolving at the same time and two of them even went from Rank 2 to Rank 3. Unbelievable. Am I dreaming?"
