Chapter 239: Chapter 207: The Path of the Four Transcendences
"It does!" Colonel Zhou nodded.
If this didn\'t meet the standards, then nothing would.
Scores above seventy were hard to come by, and any Beast Taming with a score above sixty met the standard.
"For specifics on how to cooperate, you can go ask Han Yuning," Li Guanqi suggested.
Han Yuning herself had a military background, so cooperation between the two sides would naturally be easier.
Chen Xing was too young and lacked experience in this area, and he also didn\'t quite understand the pricing, so if he were to negotiate directly, they might suffer a loss in price.
Moreover, the project was the result of Han Yuning\'s own laboratory\'s work, so it was most appropriate for Han Yuning to take the lead.
...
"Handsome guy, are you planning to open a restaurant? Let me know when it\'s up and running; I\'ll come and support your business," the delivery guy joked as he delivered goods.
He had been frantically delivering all kinds of supplies to Chen Xing these past few days.
Chen Xing smiled, "I\'ll let you know if there\'s a chance."
Using the ingredients from his own Skill Tree to start a business... Chen Xing had no such plans at the moment.
The waters were too deep, and he couldn\'t handle it at this stage.
Still, nurturing beasts was indeed a bottomless pit.
Purchasing these ingredients had emptied Chen Xing\'s savings.
All were used to buy various food ingredients for making food, and there was still a shortfall.
If possible, Chen Xing would also like to offer a high price for the purchase of additional monster corpses that had achieved Fleshly Transcendence.
He would never complain about having too much high-level carnivorous pet food.
Unfortunately, his own funds simply weren\'t enough.
Especially the newly activated skill - Fresh Oasis Crunchy Chilled Asparagus.
"Fresh Oasis Crunchy Chilled Asparagus": Crispy and tasty chilled bamboo shoots, with a fresh taste, purely natural. Long-term consumption can increase the soul\'s capacity to ten times its base.
As a top-notch ingredient that could directly enhance soul capacity.
The required bamboo shoots weren\'t ordinary asparagus that anyone could dig up with a hoe in the backyard.
Instead, they required a Treasure Material called "Alpine Emerald Asparagus"!
That\'s right; it\'s not just a regular ingredient but a Treasure Material that could be used for Beast Taming Evolution.
Each serving of chilled asparagus needed half a pound of asparagus at the standard quantity.
Chen Xing searched online and found that the price of Alpine Emerald Asparagus was not as expensive as he imagined.
Though it\'s a Treasure Material, Treasure Materials also had varying prices.
Just like gems, some are cheap and can be bought for just a few dozen, while the expensive ones could go for hundreds of thousands or even millions.
The market price for Alpine Emerald Asparagus was 600,000 Great Xia Currency per plant.
Converted to Spirit Gold, that\'s six Spirit Gold per plant, roughly equivalent to three Academic Credits per plant.
Compared to the rarer Academic Credits, Chen Xing naturally preferred to spend Great Xia Currency first, and when that ran out, he would use Spirit Gold to purchase.
Even the asparagus is a Treasure Material level ingredient, so Chen Xing also had a rough idea about the new unactivated skill in the Skill Tree "Spicy Chili Oil Dried Tofu".
The raw materials for this tofu must also be out of the ordinary.
If it\'s particularly outrageous, the raw materials for this chili oil might also be special...
Apart from asparagus, Chen Xing also purchased a large quantity of black and white chickens for frying chicken and a small amount of steak.

The fried chicken could help increase Magic Power limits, and Dong Jun had not yet reached his limit.
The steak used to make creamy steak could help Beast Tamers reach their ultimate size.
After obtaining the consent of Sìxiàng and Dong Jun, Chen Xing decided to let them both have some.
It didn\'t necessarily have to increase tenfold, but their sizes could all gain a certain degree of increase, especially Dong Jun, who was so excited after hearing it could make him grow bigger, that he roared with delight.
It had seen somewhere on television ancient dragons of the Dragon Clan with sizes exceeding a hundred meters.
Even some special mutant Giant Dragons were terrifyingly large.
At that time, Dong Jun had some longing, or perhaps due to the dragon bloodline within, Dong Jun was not opposed to increasing his own size.
On the contrary, he was eager to try, and his voice was full of excitement.
Chen Xing\'s phone suddenly rang.
"Chen Xing, come quickly, there\'s a big business deal worth several hundred million," said his mentor, sounding excited.
"Alright, mentor, I\'ll be right there," Chen Xing replied, and after hanging up, he placed the box of ingredients into the freezer.
Then, he wiped his hands, hung the apron on the wall, and crossed the street to his mentor\'s house nearby.
Upon entering, there was a vestibule, and before he even passed through it, he could hear laughter coming from the living room.
One of the voices was his mentor\'s, and another sounded familiar.
Walking through the vestibule, sitting on the sofa in the living room were Han Yuning and Han Zhaobao.
"Mentor, General Han."
"There\'s no need for such formality, you can call me..." Han Zhaobao paused here.
What should his student\'s niece call him?
"My son is not much older than you; just call me Uncle Han," Han Zhaobao said with a smile.
Before coming, he had investigated Chen Xing and the more he saw, the more amazed he became; this was truly a steed that could cover a thousand miles in a single day.
Able to fight as well as to craft.
Such talent was rare, so his visit was both official and personal.
"Uncle Han," Chen Xing said respectfully.
Not only because of his status but also because he was his mentor\'s elder.
Han Zhaobao began stating the purpose of his visit, "Recently, the military needs a batch of new reconnaissance beasts. Due to certain considerations, we cannot limit ourselves to a single species in the military, so we are considering some new evolutionary forms of reconnaissance beasts."
At this point, a thought struck Chen Xing\'s mind; could it be the Wood Spirit Hound had been selected?
"The new beast you\'ve developed, not only does it belong to a novel species, but its passive talents are also quite remarkable, making it very suitable as a scout. Therefore, I am here to purchase exclusive authorization," Han Zhaobao said.
Exclusive authorization, does this mean I can\'t use it anymore?
Chen Xing didn\'t really mind this; after all, the Twin-fiend Dogs had many more evolutionary paths.
Through their reactions, Chen Xing had roughly understood the value of the green evolutionary path.
From others\' reactions, beasts of the green evolutionary path were indeed highly valued.
The blue evolutionary path... its value should be even higher.
As Chen Xing was deep in thought, Han Zhaobao, thinking that Chen Xing had some concerns, laughed heartily, "Don\'t worry, exclusive authorization only means you can\'t sell it to other forces. Your own Twin-fiend Dogs are yours to use if you like.
"As long as the method of evolution is not leaked, it\'s fine. After all, if the enemy were to gain large-scale access to the method of evolution, they might uncover the beast\'s weaknesses. I\'m sure you can understand," He said.
Chen Xing returned to his senses, "No problem, it\'s only right to contribute to the nation."
"Young man, we won\'t take your things for nothing. The military has its own regulations, so the fee for exclusive authorization is five hundred million Great Xia Currency—per year!"
"Additionally, every time a Wood Spirit Hound is evolved within the military, you will receive two Spirit Gold as profit-sharing. This payment will be settled annually, and if it\'s less than a thousand Spirit Gold per year, the military will make up the difference to one thousand Spirit Gold for you.
Besides, you\'ll also receive a third-level Black Jiao Medal of Military Merit. How does that sound?"
Chen Xing didn\'t know if this price was high or low.
But having an unexpected windfall was great, and what\'s more, it was a continuous windfall.
Chen Xing immediately nodded in agreement.
"Haha, good, I hope we have the opportunity to continue working together in the future," Han Zhaobao said, his eyes crinkling with his smile.
"When you find time, feel free to visit the military more often. My Hurricane Dragon Eagle Army is stationed nearby. If you\'re interested in the Hurricane Dragon Eagles, I can pick out the strongest one for you."
"Third Uncle, my student hasn\'t even graduated yet, and you\'re already eyeing him for the military?" Han Yuning said helplessly from the side.
"Hahaha, who wouldn\'t want a genius like him? If those guys in the other military units discovered him, they\'d definitely compete with me for him. Luckily, I have the relationship with my niece; having the advantage of being close to the water means getting the moon first," Han Zhaobao said, unconcerned.
"By the way, Little Chen, is it okay for me to call you that? Since you\'ve called me uncle, if there\'s ever anything you need help with in the future, you can come to Uncle Han," he added.
Upon hearing this, a thought crossed Chen Xing\'s mind, "Uncle Han, I do indeed have a matter I\'d like to consult with you about."
"Ask away," Han Zhaobao replied, fearing not that Chen Xing would make requests, but rather that he would not.
"Have you heard of the Four Transcendences evolution?" Chen Xing asked.
The outside world mostly talked about the Three Detachments.
But according to the Skill Tree display, in theory, beasts should be capable of undergoing Four Transcendences.
With Han Zhaobao\'s status, not to mention the top echelons of Great Xia, he was undoubtedly a high-ranking military official.
If someone of his stature didn\'t know about the Four Transcendences, then it was even less likely for ordinary people to have heard of them.
"Four Transcendences? Where did you hear about that?" Han Zhaobao was somewhat surprised.
"I previously heard about Will Transcendence and thought that since there is Fleshly Transcendence, Soul Transcendence, and Magic Transcendence, adding Will Transcendence to the mix, if one could transcend in all four areas simultaneously, that should be the Four Transcendences," Chen Xing explained.
Han Zhaobao kindly reminded him, "There is such a thing as the Four Transcendences, and I can even obtain the method for it, but... whether this method of Transcendence is true or false is hard to say. Because up to now, I haven\'t heard of anyone who has successfully achieved Four Transcendences, so no one can verify whether the method is real."
Han Yuning, sitting to the side, spoke up, "The method for the Four Transcendences is said to have been unearthed from a ruin and caused quite a stir at the time. Many noble families went to transcribe the contents, but there hasn\'t been news of anyone succeeding, and it eventually faded into obscurity."
Han Zhaobao shook his head, "Of course, it doesn\'t necessarily mean that no one has completed the path of the Four Transcendences over so many years. After all, even if someone had succeeded, they wouldn\'t go around proclaiming it publicly."
"That makes sense; that\'s why you suddenly asked me about Will Transcendence last time. The mere task of achieving Will Transcendence is extremely difficult, let alone attempting to transcend in all four paths simultaneously," Han Yuning said. "But if you want to take a look at it, I can give it to you later."
Laughing to herself, Han Yuning continued, "I once considered pursuing the path of Four Transcendences, but later I realized it was too difficult, so I shifted my ambition to Three Transcendences.
And then, discovering that Three Transcendences was beyond the reach of the ordinary person, I changed my goal to Double Transcendence, and fortunately, I succeeded in that."
"Double Transcendence is already quite extraordinary," Han Zhaohu praised. "There are so many Advanced Beast Tamers, but how many of them have achieved Double Transcendence with their beasts?"
Both of them could guess to some extent Chen Xing\'s intentions.
Who didn\'t have grand ambitions when they were young? Who wouldn\'t want to become a unique and special person?
Youth is the best confidence.
One can afford to make mistakes, with the capital to do so.
There\'s no harm in trying; if by chance he succeeds, it would be a cause for great joy.
Therefore, they wouldn\'t stop Chen Xing; if he wanted to try, then let him try!
After all, he had the youthful capital to afford errors!
And if worst came to worst, they, his elders, were there to cushion the fall.
