Chapter 243 He Is Being Tested! (Part One)
"What? The Beast Curing Skill? You want to learn how to do it right now? Well, I must say...that it
seems a bit early for you to learn how to do it right now. You''re not qualified to develop that skill yet.
Remember that the prerequisite of learning the Beast Curing Skill is to master the Beast Evaluation
Skill first. The Beast Evaluation Skill is the foundation of the Beast Curing Skill. But most importantly,
you need to at least reach the second grade of the Beast Evaluation Skill if you want to learn the Beast
Curing Skill. And in order to learn the Beast Curing Skill, you also need to grasp the most basic medical
abilities and knowledge, along with having a full understanding of the characteristics of all the spirit-
manipted beasts. And furthermore..." Sheridan continued to reel off a lot of conditions, determined to
prove theplexity of the situation to Rocky, who had just dered his intention to learn the
advanced skill. As Rocky''s master, Sheridan would be responsible for teaching him all the skills
necessary. Nevertheless, he thought Rocky was being a little hasty, as Rocky wanted to learn the skill
immediately.
"I have to reach the second grade for the Beast Evaluation Skill? Well, that won''t be a problem for me,"
Rocky responded flippantly, unable to help shrugging his shoulders at the requirements that Sheridan
was reeling off. His current Beast Evaluation Skill level was actually already at the middle stage of the
second grade. Although it might still take him some time to reach the third grade, he''d at least reached
the prerequisite level needed for the Beast Curing Skill.
"What do you mean it''s not a problem for you?" Sheridan asked, bbergasted as he stared at Rocky,
wondering if he''d lost his mind.
"I mean, I meet the prerequisites you just said for learning the Beast Curing Skill," Rocky responded
casually, arms folded over his chest. He was eager to learn more from his master and wouldn''t easily
give up the idea of learning the Beast Curing Skill.
"Look, buddy, are you kidding me right now? You''re not even a beast evaluator, let alone reach the
second grade for the Beast Evaluation Skill. If your Beast Evaluation Skill was already in the second
grade right now, actual beast evaluators ought to be ashamed of themselves!" Sheridan eximed,
with an incredulous expression on his face. It wasn''t that he didn''t believe him, but he simply found it
difficult to believe that Rocky might have hidden his skills on purpose.
If he ever discovered that not only did Rocky learn the Beast Evaluation Skill, but that he also had
learned the legendary, most powerful Magical Evaluation Skill, his jaw might have hit the ground. The
Magical Evaluation Skill was such a highly coveted skill and such a treasure that most beast evaluators
dream of being able to master it.
The most powerful part of the Magical Evaluation Skill was that it epassed everything about the
beast evaluation. Even today, most of the powerful Beast Evaluation Skillsmonly used throughout
the Wild Spirit Land were derived from the Magical Evaluation Skill. And even then, those skills were
just a small part of it. It could be said that the Magical Evaluation Skill had ultimately perfected the
beast evaluation system, which was already extremelyprehensive and replete with all kinds of
Beast Evaluation Skills.
A while back, at the Superb Beast Farm, Rocky had a beast evaluationpetition with two excellent
beast evaluators present on the spot. Rocky disyed the two very famous Beast Evaluation Skills
throughout the entire Wild Spirit Land in public. It had shocked the audience beyond belief. And yet, the
two skills he disyed were the two most basic Beast Evaluation Skills from the Magical Evaluation
Skill. The disy only served to show him how truly powerful this Magical Evaluation Skill was.
In spite of all above, the most amazing thing that happened to Rocky was that under the premise of
learning the Magical Evaluation Skill, he also found himself the only disciple of the most outstanding
master on the Wild Spirit Land who was also known as a beast tamer and beast curer. If he could learn
everything from his master sessfully, it was doubtless that he would be the most famed and
omnipotent figure in this Wild Spirit Land.
"Do you think I have a reason to lie to you?" Rocky simply asked his master. He raised his eyebrows
and thought, ''I didn''t mean to let slip that I have mastered the Beast Evaluation Skill. But since it is one
of the prerequisites for learning the Beast Curing Skill, I have no other choice but to tell you. Of course,
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
I''ll still never tell you that I''ve learned the Beast Evaluation Skill. Otherwise, I don''t know what would
happen... You might have a heart attack.''
"Of course you do! You said you want to learn Beast Curing Skill, didn''t you? The conditions of learning
this Beast Curing Skill are so severe that you''d say just about anything to make me teach you the skill,"
Sheridan answered, scoffing at the thought of Rocky''s real motives. He knew he had to be cautious; he
had high standards in selecting a disciple. And he certainly wouldn''t teach the Beast Curing Skill to just
about anyone.
"Then, what can I do to convince you?" Rocky quickly asked. He stared helplessly at Sheridan, feeling
desperate as he thought, ''This old man is ying hardball. Maybe... I have to show my skill in front of
him to prove I am qualified, if I want to learn the Beast Curing Skill.''
Sheridan stared at Rocky for a moment before a thought seemed toe to him. He gestured to him
and said, "Follow me." He turned on his heel and walked off to the direction of the beast farm.
Rocky raised his eyebrows. Realizing now that the old man wanted to test his strength, he hurried after
his master.
It wasn''t long before Sheridan led Rocky directly to the beast farm''s barn, opening its doorways wide.
Inside, Rocky saw a baby spirit-manipted beast.
"This cub was sent here earlier today. Although its qualities aren''t too bad, and it was born to a two-star
beast, it seems to have a very serious defect. If your Beast Evaluation Skill is really at the second
grade as you say, then it shouldn''t be difficult for you to figure out what the defect is," Sheridan
exined thoughtfully. It was clear that he wanted to test whether the strength of Rocky had really
achieved the second grade, just as he had imed. However, there was the possibility that the defect
he mentioned might not be determined by the Beast Evaluation Skill at the second grade. There was a
likelihood that he was trying to simply discourage Rocky so that he would give up the idea. He didn''t
think that Rocky was ready to learn the Beast Curing Skill just yet. After all, if his foundation wasn''t
strong enough, then it would be very difficult for his trainingter on. He always believed that old
saying, "Rome wasn''t built in a day."
