Hunting beasts to earn points is knowledge that every Awakened learns before awakening.
Some Awakened are not as lucky as Fang Xiu, who had demon cores left behind by his father to boost his skills. Nor are they like Chu Qingxue, who has a family and Zhao Yao to buy suitable monster cores for her. Some even start with low levels when their talents awaken, and if they want to make a comeback relying on a second skill, they naturally hope that the second skill will come from a relatively powerful beast. Only then can they raise their strength despite insufficient awakening talent.
As for obtaining the monster cores of powerful beasts, since they cannot kill them themselves, they can only redeem them from the mall using points. Some can only hunt first-tier beasts, earning a single point at a time and saving up slowly. It takes who knows how many years to accumulate enough for a decent monster core and acquire a new skill.
