[Ice Claw Shrimp]

Race: Dire Beast

Species: Shrimp/ice

Rank: White-grade 3-star

Status: Perfect

Talent Skill: Ice Claw Scissors

Description: A Dire Beast that lives in a lake. It absorbs a large amount of ice elements, and its body changes to the ice element. The pair of pincers has great power, and they can easily cut through mountain rocks.

“Ice claw shrimp. No wonder I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere before.”

After recalling for a moment, Lorne also recalled that in his memory, a seeded student of the Seventh Magic Card Academy possessed the advancement and transformation of the Ice Claw Shrimp, the Swift Shadow Ice Claw Shrimp. It was a four-star White-grade Dire Beast, and its strength was extremely strong, it enjoyed top-tier treatment and resources within the academy.

It could be said that almost every core student of the Magic Card Academy was a talent that was nurtured toward the second-rate or even first-rate Magic Card Academy.

The amount of resources allocated by the academy in the future would depend on how much they could get into that Magic Card Master Academy. Naturally, their treatment and resources in the academy were the best.

For ordinary people, that kind of genius could only be looked up to.

But for the current Lorne, he was just a core student of an academy. With a Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger that possessed an extremely powerful Dire Beast, Lorne believed that he would become a core student very soon.

He was not the kind of person who kept a low profile. Becoming a core student had a large amount of resources available to him. It would be foolish to not want free resources and develop in a low profile.

“Speaking of which, the Ice Claw Shrimp is considered a rare Dire Beast in the academy. It’s also very powerful. Since it’s already delivered to my doorstep, then I won’t stand on ceremony.”

Lorne looked at the Ice Claw Shrimp not far away and quickly made a decision.

“Spirit attack!”

The Ice Claw Shrimp’s range of attack happened to be within the range of spirit attack. It had to be said that this Ice Claw Shrimp was really unlucky.

After all, spirit attack was one of Lorne’s strongest moves, and it was different from before. Lorne was now a Magic Card Master with a Magic Card, and his spirit power had increased once again.

Its power was even stronger.

If the Ice Claw Shrimp had come ashore from other places, Lorne might have let it go, because there was no certainty of victory.

But if it had come ashore from the range of spirit impact, then it could only blame its bad luck.

“Boom!”

The power and suppressive force of the spirit impact could even injure a Green-grade Wind Wolf, not to mention the Ice Claw Shrimp, which only had the strength of a White-grade 3-star.

Under the spirit attack, the Ice Claw Shrimp could not move.

Lorne slowly walked toward the Ice Claw Shrimp.

“Szz!”

This Ice Claw Shrimp was obviously a little angry. It waved its ice claw to attack Lorne, but it could not stand up. It could only crawl on the snow plains.

“Weng weng!”

The sealing formation appeared. As it struggled under the ice claw, he sealed it into a Magic Card. However, this Magic Card Creature did not enter Lorne’s body.

Instead, Lorne held it in his hand.

“Done.”

“Potential and talent are good. I hope I can sell it for a good price.”

That’s right. Lorne did not capture the Ice Claw Shrimp to seal it and turn it into his Magic Card. Instead, he was prepared to sell it.

This was a common phenomenon among Magic Card Masters. Some people specialized in capturing Magic Cards. This class was called the Magic Card Hunter.

And what Lorne used just now was not a fresh blood seal, but a temporary sealing array. The Ice Claw Shrimp was temporarily sealed into a Magic Card, but it only had a one-week validity.

If they could not sell it quickly within seven days and let others seal it into a real Magic Card, then the Ice Claw Shrimp would be teleported away just like how the seal failed.

Lorne had planned to buy a Magic Card with the money that Xu Li had stolen. It was a Magic Card that had been temporarily sealed.

“A White-grade Three-star Ice Claw Shrimp should be worth tens of millions of star dollars.”

Lorne had never sold a Magic Card before, but he knew that the value of the Ice Claw Shrimp was definitely not low. If he sold it, he would definitely become a millionaire. It was almost equivalent to the salary of an ordinary person for more than ten years.

However, this was an exception. Most Dire Beasts did not have the talent and strength of the Ice Claw Shrimps. Even if they were temporarily sealed by a Magic Card Hunter, they would at most be sold for tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of star dollars.

The truly talented Magic Card Masters would seal them for themselves. Unless they were really short of money, who would sell them.

“Almost recovered.”

“Hum hum hum!”

“Success.”

The surrounding energy began to gather, and the four-meter-tall Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger appeared.

“Just summoning it once consumed two-thirds of my Card Energy. It really consumed a lot of energy.”

In other words, after summoning the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger, Lorne could not even summon other Dire Beasts to fight.

[Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger]

Race: Magical Beast

Species: Dark Element

Rank: Blue-grade 1-star

Status: Slight injury

Innate Skills: Shadow blade, violent bite

Description: An ancient species of tigers. Its strength is tyrannical, and it possesses extremely powerful innate skills, strength, and potential.

“It has already recovered by more than half…!”

Lorne looked at the status of the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger in front of him. Before the seal, it was in a heavily injured state, but in just a few hours, it had actually relied on its own innate skills to recover more than half of its injuries. Now, it was only slightly injured…he was basically fine, which surprised Lorne a little.

“However, summoning the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger consumes too much energy. As the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger’s strength increases, the energy consumption will definitely be greater.”

This was only Lorne’s first magic card. He still had two Magic Card slots. If he did not have enough mana during the college entrance examination, he could only summon the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger and could not summon the other Magic Cards to fight.

Then even if the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger was powerful, Lorne would not be able to enter a top-tier Magic Card Master Academy.

“The problem of Card Energy must be solved.”

“No wonder many Magic Card Masters would seal some Spirit Beasts as support.”

Most Spirit Beasts were not as strong as Dire Beasts or Exotic Beasts in battle, but they were the best support. Some Spirit Beasts’ innate skills had the ability to recover Card Energy.

Fortunately, Lorne’s Silver Magic Card could increase a certain amount of Card Energy with every practice. Although it was not much, it was good that it lasted for a long time.

“Hehe, I’m lucky. Although the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger started to have a huge grudge, by sealing it and turning it into a Magic Card, it also saved its life in a disguised way. It seems that this Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger is really sensible.”

In the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger’s perception, Lorne was its master.

But if Lorne used this method to seal the other slightly stubborn Dire Beasts and Exotic Beasts, they would definitely not recognize Lorne, nor would they respond to Lorne’s summoning.

Unless Lorne’s strength gradually improved, gained the recognition of the Dire Beasts, or his strength surpassed the Dire Beasts, then he could be forcefully summoned.

“It’s time to go.”

Lorne kept the young Ice Carp well.

This young Ice Carp was related to the future growth of his little sister, Suke.

“Come back.”

“Whoosh!”

“Let’s go, Blackie.”

Blackie was the name of the Saber-toothed Demonic Tiger. Blackie was dressed in black, so Lorne gave it a very casual name.

It was relatively cold in the Mystic Realm, so Lorne did not want to stay any longer. It was a little cold, and the temperature had dropped sharply in the middle of the night.

Lorne could not wait to leave and find a place to sleep first.

Plop.

Lorne did not see the Ice Carp leap out of the lake again not long after it left..
