Chapter 229: Chapter 40 Failure_l
Baiwen Tower.
Upon hearing this question while sitting on the futon, Wang Ba was momentarily stunned.
Because this question strikingly touched upon his blind spot in beast taming knowledge — Class III.
That’s right.
Benefiting from the large amount of obscure books in the Beasts Room that didn’t draw much attention, along with some books that Wang Ba himself had gathered, Wang Ba could be described as well-read and highly knowledgeable in the field of Spirit Beasts.
In addition to having a large number of animals like the Spirit Chicken and Spirit Turtle for experiments to verify his conjectures, he had accumulated a wealth of practical experience.
Furthermore, being a Spiritual Cook indirectly made him familiar with the physical structures and characteristics of Spirit Beasts.
Combined together, his accomplishment in The Way of Beast Tamer can be reckoned as unique among Foundation Establishment Competitors and even Golden Core Craftsmen, even without the Lifespan Panel.
So, even when discussing Spirit Beasts with cultivators like Tang Ji, whose status and position were unmistakably high, he did not show any timidity, and many of his viewpoints and insights even won Tang Ji’s admiration.
But the only problem was that the books in the Beasts Room, due to the limitation of the Cultivation Base of the House Masters throughout the ages, basically only covered Class I and II Spirit Beasts.
As for manuscripts pertaining to Class III, they were scarce to begin with, and if there were any, they were long kept away with great importance by the Chief House Master, nowhere to be found in the book collection anymore.
As a result, Wang Ba was as familiar with the habits, appearance, upgrading principles, and so on of many Class I and II Spirit Beasts as penny patterns on his palm, but his knowledge level about Class III Spirit Beasts was not much different from that of a common Foundation Establishment Competitor.
Take for instance this Wind Egret, he had heard nothing of it.
Of course, some basic principles would not change essentially due to the upgrading of classes.
So upon hearing this question, Wang Ba immediately thought of the only case he ever operated on, the Mountain Moving Ape crossing the Thunder
Tribulation.
However, back when the Mountain Moving Ape was crossing the tribulation, his theory to strengthen the Mountain Moving Ape to indirectly reduce the difficulty of the Thunder Tribulation was not successful in essence.
That’s because the Thunder Tribulation had grown stronger with the
formidable Mountain Moving Ape.
This implies that the idea of strengthening the Spirit Beast to alleviate the Thunder Tribulation is not very feasible.
“There’s only one way then, to tough it out.”
After thinking right and left, Wang Ba ultimately gave an answer that he himself felt was not very dependable.
And as expected, in the first question of the second layer, Wang Ba answered it incorrectly.
The old man shook his head slightly, and there was a rare streak of surprise in his eyes; he seemed to feel sorry that Wang Ba got the answer wrong:
“The correct answer is, the feathers of Wind Egret have the effect of shielding against thunderbolts. Therefore, one only needs to collect the fallen feathers of Wind Egret, and let the Wind Egret insert these feathers into its body itself, to lower the power of Thunder Tribulation…oh how unfortunate, this should be the easiest question in the second layer.”
The old man rarely said so much.
Upon hearing the words of the old man, Wang Ba didn’t feel much, as after all this was his real level, he hadn’t even seen what a Wind Egret looked like.
“The second question…”
The water curtain rose again.
This time, it was surprising that a Mountain Moving Ape appeared.
And it looked quite like the Wu Monkey King, a natural ape king.
The ape seemed to want to be strong with all its heart, constantly tempering its physical body, and looking for environments infused with Spiritual Energy and food from all over the place.
The picture evolved swiftly.
This Mountain Moving Ape, after some hardships and after crossing the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, finally managed to break through to the lower- grade of the Class II.
It’s just a pity that no matter how hard it tried thereafter till the Mountain Moving Ape died, it never managed to upgrade its class again.
The question naturally surfaced: how to enable a Mountain Moving Ape that has undergone the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation to break the racial limit of Stage II lower grade?
Upon seeing this question, Wang Ba was elated.
He was familiar with this!
Without delay, he slightly modified the growth process of the Wu Monkey King and narrated it as it is.
After listening to it, the old man looked at Wang Ba, seeing a hint of peculiarity in his eyes.
Just now, he got the simplest question wrong, and yet he solved this question, which was among the top three in terms of difficulty in the second layer, without batting an eye.
Such contrast really left the old man somewhat baffled.
Soon, there was the third question, the fourth…
The more the old man tested, the more shocked he was.
He was astounded to find that, in the second layer, many questions that he considered capable of stumping Golden Core Craftsmen could be easily solved by this youngster, whose competence made him suspect at one point if this youngster was a Golden Core elder from some Beast Control Sect deliberately coming here to act youthful.
However, some extremely superficial questions left this youngster utterly unknowing.
In the blink of an eye.
Yet another question about how to resolve the preponderance of difficult childbirths when a Class III ‘Evil Cloud Tiger’ gives birth, which, in the old man’s view, is completely a giveaway question, Wang Ba got it wrong again.
The old man, ceasing his questioning, looked at him with regret.
Wang Ba was taken aback at first, then finally reacted with a slightly disappointed face.
“In the second layer, I asked ninety-six questions, and you got ten wrong.”
“That’s unfortunate.”
The old man sighed lightly.
The phantom gradually vanished.

Only a futon was left in the original spot.
The door of Baiwen Tower was once again open.
Although Wang Ba felt a bit of loss in his heart, he was not overly affected internally.
After all, from the very beginning he felt that there was little possibility of him passing successfully.
He believed that he tried his best in the previous answers, and for some knowledge relating to Class III Spirit Beasts, which he had never even seen covering, he really was at a loss.
