Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 1038: Don’t Give Up
Qiao Sang’s mind flashed with information about Abyssal Bite, and she immediately asked humbly:
“How do I practice this?”
“First, you need to attach Evil-type energy to the sharp teeth,” Mi Jiala said without hesitation, “Then try to create a phantom. This is a bit difficult for a Pet whose main attribute isn’t Evil-type, but don’t worry, buying some Evil-type stimulating potions and applying them to the sharp teeth will help with the initial practice of Abyssal Bite.”
It’s good to have a teacher by your side; you don’t even need to go online for help… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly, then asked:
“Which Evil-type stimulating potion works best?”
Mi Jiala thought for a moment and said:
“There’s one called ‘Stimulating Evil Potion’ that works well. If you buy it at Imperial Beast Academy, you can usually exchange it for 1 point per bottle.”
What a straightforward potion name… Qiao Sang asked:
“What’s the market price outside?”
“It’s about 50,000 alliance coins,” Mi Jiala said.
Qiao Sang blurted out, “Then I’ll just buy it outside.”
Mi Jiala heard this and said nothing.
The points at Imperial Beast Academy can be exchanged for things not available outside. For some students who are not short on money, they generally won’t waste points on things that can be bought with money outside, even if it’s just 1 point.
After seeing Qiao Sang spend a large sum to buy an S-grade mingzhu flower, she knew that Qiao Sang was also someone not short on money.
…
In the high sky.
On an airplane heading to Eagle Country.
Qiao Sang sat in the spacious business class seat, wearing an eye mask.
Yuan Elf had predicted the next destination, and she didn’t know how long it would take, anywhere from a few months to possibly even years.
Xiao Xunbao had absorbed a large amount of energy, and according to the hospital’s检测 at the time, it could directly reach the General-level late stage, or even its limit. If that were the case, Xiao Xunbao should be able to evolve during this trip to Eagle Country.
During this time, Steel Treasure could learn Abyssal Bite, and she could also use her points to exchange for some needed items.
Last time she contracted Clear Treasure, the Dean promised her a free item exchange, which she hadn’t decided on yet. If worst came to worst, she would ask Teacher Mi Jiala for advice; she knew far more good things than Qiao Sang did.
And Xiaoting Dragon, it was said that Imperial Beast Academy had a research project that could detect how long it would take for a Pet egg to hatch. She could try it out to have an idea…
As she was thinking, the sound of the broadcast entered her ears:
“Dear passengers, we will soon arrive in Eagle Country…”
Qiao Sang took off her eye mask and looked down through the small airplane window at the myriad of lights below, and the occasional Secret Realm cracks that appeared.
Eagle Country was indeed too dangerous. The Secret Realm cracks were much more numerous than in Xi Han City, one of the Ten Great Ghost Cities, and there was no completely safe place.
In Zhiya District, for example, as long as you didn’t go to the Ten Great Ghost Cities, your safety could be guaranteed elsewhere… But that was also good; more Secret Realm cracks meant more opportunities. She remembered that as long as you defeated the Pets that emerged from the Secret Realm cracks, the academy would give corresponding points… Qiao Sang looked at the approaching city lights, her thoughts racing.
The plane landed smoothly. Qiao Sang got off the plane and immediately summoned Tooth Treasure and the others.
Along the way, the回头率 was very high, almost over 80%. Passersby frequently turned their heads, which was uncommon in a metropolis filled with various forms of Pets.
A simple T-shirt, a plain ponytail, no luxury items on her entire body. The only things that showed her wealth and uniqueness were Tooth Treasure and the others.
The first time she came to Eagle Country, she didn’t have this kind of回头率… Qiao Sang thought for a moment and came to a conclusion:
It seems many people in Eagle Country also paid attention to the Central Sky District Competition, and most of them became fans of Xiao Xunbao. Looking at them one by one, almost all of them looked at her only after seeing Xiao Xunbao.
“Xiao Xunbao~”
Xiao Xunbao noticed the surrounding gazes and couldn’t help but puff out its chest, striking its most confident pose.
Mi Jiala frowned slightly and said:
“Something’s not right. Once we’re out, we’ll use Space Movement and leave directly.”
To prevent passengers from avoiding security checks or evading fares, Eagle Country’s airports do not allow instant teleportation or Space Movement inside; it’s only permitted after exiting the airport.
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, not doubting her, and nodded:
“Okay.”
Then she couldn’t suppress the doubt in her heart and asked:
“What’s not right?”
“These people are full of hostility,” Mi Jiala said gravely:
“Seven of them even secretly called the Police Station.”
She paused, then subtly glanced at Xiao Xunbao and said:
“The target of their call to the Police Station is Ghost Ring King.”
Qiao Sang: “!!!”
Xiao Xunbao: “!!!”
Qiao Sang immediately opened her hearing, and the surrounding sounds instantly poured into her ears:
“This seems to be that Ghost Ring King.”
“That’s right, golden rings and hair, it’s the abnormal-colored Ghost Ring King.”
The correct version is available at 6Ⅹ9ⅩBookⅩBar! 6Ⅹ9 Book Bar is the first to publish a novel. Read at 69 Book Bar.
“Who is with it?”
“Probably its Yu Beast Master.”
“Oh my god, I always thought it was a wild Pet, I didn’t expect it to have a Yu Beast Master. So, all those things were instructed by its Yu Beast Master?”
“I don’t understand, why would Ghost Ring King’s Yu Beast Master make it steal students’ homework?”
“Did its Yu Beast Master make it strip Olsen Belasquez?”
“Hello, Police Station? I found Ghost Ring King, it’s at the airport…”
“It really is that wanted Ghost Ring King. Should we go for it? I remember its bounty is 1,000,000 alliance coins.”
“Don’t be rash, Ghost Ring King is a General-level Pet, not something we can deal with.”
“If you catch Ghost Ring King, don’t give it to the Police Station, give it to Olsen Belasquez! He’s offering three times the bounty on the wanted poster!”
The world was collapsing!
Holy crap, so it wasn’t because they watched the Regional Competition and recognized her through Xiao Xunbao, but because they mistook Xiao Xunbao for another wanted Ghost Ring King! Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched violently, and she lowered her voice:
“They probably mistook Xiao Xunbao for another wanted Ghost Ring King. I think if we just explain it when the time comes, it’ll be fine.”
“Xiao Xunbao?!”
Xiao Xunbao took a step back, as if it had suffered a major blow.
“They won’t listen to your explanation,” Mi Jiala said calmly, “They’ll only have time to listen to your explanation after they’ve arrested Ghost Ring King and sent it to the Police Station.”
That makes sense. Since they’ve identified it as a wanted criminal, they’ll naturally arrest it first, and any confirmation will happen at the Police Station… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly.
She had heard about this from the teachers who had examined Tooth Treasure and the others. She originally thought that since Xiao Xunbao was an abnormal-colored Pet, people wouldn’t mistake it. She didn’t expect that the wanted Ghost Ring King was also an abnormal-colored Pet, and it seemed to be golden yellow like Xiao Xunbao, and hadn’t been caught yet…
Suddenly, a translucent Barrier enveloped the surroundings.
Qiao Sang’s thoughts stopped abruptly, and she halted her steps in time.
A woman with black hair and black eyes walked to the Barrier and said coldly:
“Ghost Ring King, how dare you appear so openly in front of everyone when you’re wanted? It’s your bad luck to run into me. Surrender now and come back to the Police Station with me!”
Qiao Sang: “…”
Xiao Xunbao: “…”
Tooth Treasure: “???”
