Crane faces skepticism when he uses an F-rank bat to challenge an opponent's A-rank pet, the Flame Gryphon. Despite doubts, Crane relies on his sharp insight ability, 'All-Seeing Eye,' to identify the gryphon's weak spot beneath its left armpit. Successfully exploiting this, Crane impresses onlookers by outperforming others who depend on raw talent. However, his victory triggers harsh criticism from his rival, Xavion, who declares Crane unfit to be a beast tamer. The episode ends with Crane's skills recognized but his status and worth still under threat.
