People are accustomed to calling these three rankings the Pet List, Human List, and Tiger List.
If you manage to get into the top three of any list, you can receive a random reward from the Tiger List.
Judging from past rewards, it's often a Secret Skill Core, Secret Technique Core, Secret Treasure, and such, with quality generally not being too poor. Even with very bad luck, the third place can obtain a rare-quality reward.
If you're lucky, you'll randomly receive a unique item or an unparalleled item.
Typically, the higher the rank, the better the reward.
Chen Guan's eyes lit up as he observed.
The Tiger List refreshes once a month, meaning the rankings are redefined every month, and there are rewards every month.
Chen Guan calculated that if he could secure the top three in all three lists, he would have nine chances for random rewards in total.
Even with average luck, a third of the prizes will be rare quality, leaving six items as either unparalleled or unique.
Conservatively estimating, it's normal to receive two or three unparalleled items. Even if they are relatively niche, selling for hundreds of thousands is quite normal.
If they are popular unparalleled items, selling for millions, or even tens of millions, is not out of the question.
Unique items are also valuable; if you get a special high-value unique item, it might even sell for millions.
"This really is a path to wealth!" Chen Guan felt a bit tempted in his heart.
However, he also understood that such a path without many barriers would surely be highly competitive. With the Divine Land's population of two to three billion, capable individuals abound, and aiming for the top three is extremely challenging.
"If I can't get first place, then mingling in third would work too." Chen Guan set his sights on Rouge Rabbit and Ghost-Eyed Python.
In recent months, the levels of Rouge Rabbit and Ghost-Eyed Python, under Chen Guan's intense nurturing, had already surpassed his own. They are currently in a max-level state at level 20 and should be among the strongest contenders on the Tiger List. Chen Guan thought they should manage to get into the top three.
Ming Fei's level followed closely with Chen Guan and is currently level 16.
The Paperman's level is even lower, still at level 10, without finding a method for Second Awakening.
In the same situation is the Warring States; its talent is too poor unless there's a special opportunity, otherwise it's hard to achieve Second Awakening.
Chen Guan had fed it plenty of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures and wasn't stingy with Reishi Pills, but it was still no use, still unable to awaken for the second time.
Chen Guan hadn't encountered any trouble along the way, but with his Eye Talent, he could sense that someone had been watching him all along; and not just one person. It's unclear which force the observers belong to, or if it's more than one.
Chen Guan didn't mind. The more people watching him, the better. It makes people less likely to rashly make a move on him.
After entering the Dragon Tiger Mountain Blessed Land, Chen Guan found himself randomly transported to the side of a deep pool. Looking around, he noticed numerous giant centipede Secret Spirits all over the place around the water's edge.
Chen Guan wasn't surprised; he had read about Dragon Tiger Mountain and knew there were lots of Poison Secret Spirits in the Dragon Tiger Mountain Secret Realm. It could be said that most venomous Secret Spirits within Third Awakening originate from the Dragon Tiger Mountain Secret Realm.
The elixirs sold by the Zhang Family also included many Antitoxic Pills.
Those arm-thick black-backed centipedes were merely ordinary black-armored Poison Centipedes, generally below level 5, and Chen Guan had no motivation to kill them.
He was just about to leave to quickly ask someone for directions to Pingshan, where the Dragon Tiger List was located.
Chen Guan hadn't walked far when he suddenly spotted a giant caterpillar more than a foot long, covered in colorful spiny hairs crawling on the ground.
Where it crawled, plants immediately withered, leaving a charred track on the ground.
"What is this Secret Spirit?" Chen Guan glanced at the multicolored caterpillar and unleashed an Evil Asura Saber across the air, instantly cleaving it in two.
The next moment, he saw the caterpillar's body disintegrate into a flurry of colorful particles, flying toward Chen Guan's body, and it was suddenly Petified.
Ten Thousand Poison Insect Emperor (Unparalleled): Level 1 Spirit Pet.
Primordial Energy: 1
Growth Rate: 2.0
Lifebound Talent: Poisonous Insect Emperor (Unparalleled).
Secret Technique: Ten Thousand Poisons True Solution (Unparalleled)
Secret Skill: Unsolvable Poison (Unparalleled)
Secret Treasure: None.
Chen Guan was stunned, his mouth agape, not expecting to stumble upon a treasure as soon as he stepped out, his luck was beyond words.
He casually killed a low-level Secret Spirit and ended up obtaining an unparalleled Secret Spirit, which even had a top-tier growth rate of 2.0, making Chen Guan feel like he should try buying a lottery ticket today.
Such a good fortune is not unheard of but is certainly rare.
The Ten Thousand Poison Insect Emperor had excellent talent and potential in all aspects, but its strength and physical toughness left something to be desired. Its main attack was poison; in a frontal confrontation, it was far inferior to a pet like the Ghost-Eyed Python.
Chen Guan summoned the Ten Thousand Poison Insect Emperor, letting it kill black-armored Poison Centipedes and found this creature weak, to the degree of being chased and bitten by the centipedes, despite being an unparalleled Secret Spirit.
Soon, however, the black-armored Poison Centipedes stopped chasing it, apparently poisoned, writhing on the ground in agony.
But after rolling around in pain for a long time, the black-armored Poison Centipedes still didn't die.
"Isn't... your skill Unsolvable Poison... such an impressive skill... how can it not even kill an ordinary black-armored Poison Centipede..." Chen Guan couldn't help but inwardly mutter.
Upon further thought, it's not entirely inexplicable. Its skill being Unsolvable Poison only means there's no cure for the poison, not necessarily that it can kill.
Unable to poison the centipedes to death, and with the Ten Thousand Poison Insect Emperor's lackluster attack power, there was no way to kill the Poison Centipedes.
However, the Poison Centipedes poisoned into agony had no strength left to attack the Ten Thousand Poison Insect Emperor.
Even someone as cold-hearted as Chen Guan couldn't bear to watch, so he mercifully ended the Poison Centipede to relieve its suffering.
"My goodness, it's even injured." Chen Guan noticed some wounds on the Insect Emperor, caused by the centipedes' bites.
Chen Guan was somewhat helpless. This thing was just too weak-bodied. It was the opposite of the Ghost-Eyed Python, where one had ridiculously poor bodily talents, and the other absurdly strong.
Chen Guan also discovered that leveling up this creature required poison. Ordinary Primordial Energy could not increase its level.
This meant that if Chen Guan wanted to level it up, he either needed to kill other poison-type Secret Spirits or to buy some toxic plants and herbs such as Heavenly and Earthly Treasures to feed it.
"Another troublesome creature." Chen Guan put the Insect Emperor away first.
Despite its flaws, its value could not be overlooked. The Unsolvable Poison should be very handy, provided it can make others poisoned somehow.
With its weak physique unable even to break someone else's skin, how to poison others was yet another problem.
Chen Guan planned to study this further later and first sought the way out. After encountering a human cultivator and getting directions, he headed toward Pingshan, where the Dragon Tiger List was located.
