The King of Beast Trainers

Chapter 242 - 146 A Blade of Grass Can Slay Dragons_2

"If I can't save it, I'll admit defeat, and Professor Ye, your loss can be somewhat compensated."

"I wonder if Professor Ye would be willing to sell it at a low price."

Lu Ran spoke, knowing that if it were a normal Longleaf Sword Grass, he would have to sell his most valuable resources to afford it, especially since this particular Longleaf Sword Grass had not yet developed Spirit Intelligence.

However, a dying Longleaf Sword Grass gave Lu Ran hope.

Could the Spirit Turning Pot rejuvenate the vitality of this withered Longleaf Sword Grass?

In the past, Lu Ran had bought many nearly rotten plant-based ingredients in Infinite City and rejuvenated them quickly in the Spirit Turning Pot, fresh and plump.

Although Longleaf Sword Grass was not an ingredient, Lu Ran felt that awakening it and the operational mechanism of the Spirit Turning Pot were not conflicting.

The only tricky part was the high quality of the Longleaf Sword Grass, which was close to that of the Spirit Turning Pot. Reviving its vitality would probably take a long time during which Lu Ran wouldn't be able to use the Spirit Turning Pot.

But that wasn't too problematic, as he wasn't in need of ingredients or crystal coins for the time being. The Dragon ingredients prepared for him by the Beast Training University were of very high freshness, and he didn't need to use the Spirit Turning Pot for them.

Lu Ran indeed had his sights set on this piece of Sword Grass; it had the right length, and Mr. Husky carrying it wouldn't look strange.

At the moment, hearing Lu Ran's words, Professor Ye frowned, looked at the Longleaf Sword Grass, and then at Lu Ran.

Did Lu Ran say he had a way to reverse the state of the Longleaf Sword Grass?

To be honest, although she had purchased information from the Neko Maid Cafe about several possible methods to reverse the vitality, none could be achieved with the current methods on Blue Star.

Therefore, she was not very optimistic about Lu Ran.

"It's possible," Professor Ye had indeed given up on the Longleaf Sword Grass. By doing as Lu Ran said, the loss could be minimized.

Furthermore, with Lu Ran being a young and promising Chef, Professor Ye was willing to do him this favor.

However, exchanging the Longleaf Sword Grass, even a withered one, for some crystal coins or common resources, still felt like a loss to Professor Ye.

After all, she had put in great effort to obtain and cultivate this piece of Sword Grass.

"But, may I make a request?"

"I don't need crystal coins."

"I want to ask Professor Lu for a favor, to cook something for me in exchange for the plant," Professor Ye looked at Lu Ran.

"Dragon Clan cuisine?"

If he could exchange Dragon cuisine, that would be the least painful method of purchase for Lu Ran.

Indeed, in this era, skills of unique value trumped wealth.

"Almost, I want to ask Professor Lu Ran to use your Cooking Intent to help create some fertilizer," she said.

Lu Ran: ? @@novelbin@@

Fine fine fine, so this is how you plant science scholars in the cultivation department play it.

"I have a few special plants that contain Dragon Power, which I usually irrigate with Dragon Blood. After seeing Professor Lu, I had a sudden idea. What changes would it make to their growth if I used fertilizer made from Dragon cuisine?"

Professor Ye pushed up her glasses, her interest piqued. The cultivation of the Sword Grass had failed, but other experiments were still underway.

"No problem," Lu Ran immediately agreed.

From now on, Professor Ye would be his collaborator, and together they would study Dragon Clan plants... It was reasonable to invest a little Dragon cuisine.

......

And just like that, Lu Ran himself hadn't expected to obtain the Longleaf Sword Grass so easily.

Even though it was a Sword Grass on the brink of death.

After leaving Professor Ye's place, Lu Ran put the Longleaf Sword Grass in the Spirit Turning Pot.

Actually, it wouldn't take too long. In about a day or two, Lu Ran could tell from observing the changes in the Longleaf Sword Grass whether the Spirit Turning Pot was effective or not.

If there was no effect, Lu Ran would have to accept it, but if there was an effect, even if it took months to nurture it, that would be a huge profit.

Of course, Professor Ye also didn't lose out, as she could obtain Dragon Clan fertilizer from the only Dragon Chef, minimizing her loss.

Lu Ran liked such win-win outcomes.

"Alright, for a weapon, let's bet on this for now." After arranging everything, Lu Ran decided to make another preparation for conquering the Legendary Secret Realm.

He took out his cellphone and this time contacted Fang Lan.

"What are you doing?" Lu Ran immediately asked upon the call being connected.

"Doing an experiment! Waiting for the reaction..." Fang Lan said.

Fang Lan had also applied for her own laboratory at the Beast Training University.

For the Beast Training University, Fang Lan was also a superstar talent. Although her ranking in the new student competition wasn't top-notch, the point was, she wasn't from the Combat Department.

She was from the medical Poisonous Attribute specialty.

There are only so many from the first three generations of Beast Trainers in Xia Country.

Most of them are from the Combat Department.

Even those with a secondary profession are mostly Chefs or Forging Masters.

Doctors, however, are a rare profession.

And those proficient in Poisonous Attribute are even rarer, few and far between.

After all, why would a normal Beast Trainer study a dangerous Attribute like Poison instead of cultivating domineering Attributes like Thunder or Fire?

You have to realize that studying Poisonous Attribute can be risky; a little carelessness could spell death.

Even if some started studying it, many died along the research path. Starting a new knowledge field from scratch is the most difficult pioneering process.

Unlike Fang Lan, who had access to a complete system of toxicology materials right from the start of her career.

Currently, there are fewer than ten Beast Trainers in Xia Country who are proficient in Poisonous Attribute.

Fang Lan, a Poisonous Attribute prodigy with a background in a medical family, was someone the Beast Training University could not possibly overlook.
