Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 1131: “True Generation” (two-in-one)
Inside the private spa room.
Qiao Sang, Mi Jiala, and Ya! were each lying down, while three blue toad-like Pets in uniforms massaged various acupoints on their backs with their short toes.
Each time an acupoint was pressed, a ripple like water would spread from the fingertip to the back, creating a comfortable, cool sensation and a feeling that the pressed acupoint was being Purified.
“Ya ya…”
Ya! closed its eyes, a comfortable expression on its face.
In the adjacent spa pool, Xiao Xunbao, Lubao, Steel Treasure, Qingbao, Xiaoting Dragon, Colored Flower Bud Shalala, Pen Jiami, and Dragon King were leisurely soaking.
“The water in this spa pool has been infused with holy coral water, which helps restore energy, beautify the skin, and strengthen the body.
Are you sure Ya! doesn’t want to try it?” Kang Yang asked, sitting on the sofa.
He didn’t know the Pet’s species name but called it by the name Qiao Sang used.
“No,” Qiao Sang said, enjoying the massage. “It doesn’t like soaking in water.”
“Ya ya…”
Ya! mumbled in agreement, confirming that was correct.
Kang Yang heard this and didn’t press the matter, then remembered the main reason for their meeting and asked,
“What did you want to ask me about this time, Senior?”
“Do you know where the Zhendai Bird’s territory is?” Mi Jiala asked, getting straight to the point.
Zhendai Bird? Kang Yang pondered for a moment, then said, “I do know, but are you looking for a Zhendai Bird, or the place where the Zhendai Bird clan lives?”
They’re going to find it already? Qiao Sang’s spirits lifted, and she immediately perked up her ears, waiting for the conversation to continue.
Mi Jiala stated directly, “I need true fire crystal, so I need to find a Zhendai Bird.”
Kang Yang was silent for a moment, then sighed:
“The Zhendai Bird clan is easy to find, but as for a Zhendai Bird itself, they shouldn’t be with the clan at the moment.”
Mi Jiala looked at him, her eyes signaling him to continue.
“Currently, there are only two Zhendai Birds in the Zhendai Bird clan,” Kang Yang said.
“One of them was contracted by a Yu Beast Master and is currently not within the Dragon Kingdom’s borders, and there’s been no news of it for a long time, so I don’t know if it’s still on Yan Tian Star.
The other is said to be traveling around, seeking opportunities to break through to the Venerable rank.”
Traveling around, seeking opportunities… These Pets on Yan Tian Star are really just like humans… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly, then couldn’t help but ask,
“How do you know all this so clearly?”
Kang Yang smiled and said, “The number of Zhendai Birds in the Dragon Kingdom is small.
It’s no secret that a Yu Beast Master has cultivated a Zhendai Bird, and the other Zhendai Bird has a social media account and occasionally posts photos of its life there.”
Qiao Sang was stunned, trying to connect the Imperial-ranked Pet Zhendai Bird with a social media account.
Mi Jiala pondered for a moment, then said,
“Having a social media account is a good thing; we can contact it through its account.”
Kang Yang waved his hand: “I don’t think the Zhendai Bird would casually respond to private messages.”
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and suggested,
“Can we find a Mechanical-type Pet to directly pinpoint the Zhendai Bird’s location?”
“I’m afraid not,” Kang Yang said.
“Mechanical-type Pets are extremely rare on Yan Tian Star, and even if there are any, their levels and functions aren’t powerful.
The social media app the Zhendai Bird usually uses is called ‘Youvision’.
As long as its privacy protection mode is enabled, it’s impossible to track its location.”
He paused, then added,
“Unless Yan Tian Star has a Mechanical-type Pet as powerful as Guilun Seer, but unfortunately, there isn’t one here.”
On Yan Tian Star, humans and Pets live together.
Yu Beast Masters usually deal with Pets, and they have many choices.
As a result, everyone primarily considers how to build good relationships with wild Pets and contract them; very few people think of or choose to create and contract Mechanical-type Pets.
Qiao Sang had learned about this situation before coming to Yan Tian Star, but she hadn’t expected it to be so difficult to find even a Mechanical-type Pet capable of tracking locations.
Suddenly, Kang Yang thought of something and added,
“However, Yan Tian University should have such a Mechanical-type Pet.”
Mi Jiala didn’t respond.
Although the Imperial Beast Academy and Yan Tian University are not on the same planet, they have always been in competition.
If they asked people from Yan Tian University for help and this matter spread, it would definitely cause a lot of discussion and comparison.
She subconsciously ruled out this method of searching.
Mi Jiala thought for a moment and asked,
“Do you know the Zhendai Bird’s current location, not specific, just a general area?”
Kang Yang took out his phone, checked for a while, and said,
“The Zhendai Bird last updated its social media platform a month ago.
At that time, its background was in Yan Yan Valley.
It’s been a month now, so it should no longer be there.”
After speaking, his tone became respectful: “If you can wait and give me some time, I’ll help you inquire.”
Mi Jiala had no objections:
“Then I’ll await your good news.”
With that, she asked,
“Are there any fun places in the Dragon Kingdom?”
Qiao Sang silently glanced at Teacher Mi Jiala.
Kang Yang was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting the other party to ask such a question, then he enthusiastically listed the famous scenic spots one by one.
Mi Jiala listened patiently, occasionally asking if a certain play area was suitable for Grass-type Pets.
Kang Yang answered each question.
When the two had nearly finished discussing this topic, Qiao Sang asked,
“What is that Zhendai Bird’s ID on Youvision?”
“Its ID is ‘I Am Fire’,” Kang Yang said.
I Am Fire… Qiao Sang remembered that an Imperial-ranked Pet chose this ID and fell silent.
…
7:10 PM.
After dinner, Ya! and the others went to the outdoor training ground to train.
Qiao Sang recalled what the Tenth Seat had said, and instead of entering her room for Meditation or going to the outdoor training ground to watch Ya! and the others train as usual, she sat on the sofa, downloaded Youvision, and searched for the username “I Am Fire.”
As she was searching, she suddenly felt a gaze and couldn’t help but look up.
She saw Xiaoting Dragon staring at her unblinkingly from in front.
Qiao Sang keenly perceived the meaning in Xiaoting Dragon’s eyes and said,
“Did you forget? The Tenth Seat said that if I want my brain region to break through faster, I need to rest well.”
“Ting ting…”
Xiaoting Dragon then remembered this.
It didn’t know what the Tenth Seat represented, but it knew the Tenth Seat it saw looked very powerful, so it chose to believe and crawled towards the outdoor training ground.
“Mog Mog?”
Dragon King looked over with burning eyes and called out.
Ya! and the others were all training now, so Qiao Sang could only look at Teacher Mi Jiala, seeking a translation.
However, Mi Jiala was communicating with Colored Flower Bud Shalala and didn’t notice this side at all.
“Do you want to go out and play now?”
“Shala.” Colored Flower Bud Shalala shook her head.
“Are you sure you don’t need to? I know a place nearby that’s especially fun at night, and fluorescent moths appear there.
Their powder might help you grow faster.”
“Shala.” Colored Flower Bud Shalala shook her head again.
“Why? Don’t you like going out to play? Weren’t you with us because you wanted to play?”
“Shala.”
Colored Flower Bud Shalala pointed at Qiao Sang and called out, indicating that the Tenth Seat said she was to play with Qiao Sang, and she couldn’t go out alone with Mi Jiala.
Mi Jiala looked in the direction Colored Flower Bud Shalala pointed and only then noticed that Qiao Sang was looking at her.
Qiao Sang said faintly,
“Teacher, I don’t know what Dragon King just said.”
Meaning, please translate quickly.
Mi Jiala looked at Dragon King.
“Mog Mog?”
Dragon King patiently repeated what it had just said.
Mi Jiala was stunned for a moment, then translated: “It’s asking if the Tenth Seat also guided you on how to quickly break through your brain region.”
After translating, she couldn’t help but ask, “Did the Tenth Seat really give you pointers on that too?”
Qiao Sang said “Mm” and said, “Qingbao asked for me.
It wanted the Tenth Seat to help me quickly break through my brain region, and the Tenth Seat said…”
She babbled, repeating what the Tenth Seat had said at the time.
Upon hearing this, Dragon King’s eyes became even more affectionate.
To receive guidance from the Tenth Seat, Qiao Sang is indeed extraordinary!
Mi Jiala listened, her eyes flashing with shock and confusion, then confirmed:
“Did the Tenth Seat really say your brain region has already loosened?”
Qiao Sang nodded and said, “Yes.”
Mi Jiala’s expression became even more bewildered.
One must know, it had only been a few months since Qiao Sang’s brain region broke through 50%, and even if she encountered Mihei Ramu and her brain region greatly increased to 59%, that was still two months ago.
Could two months or more allow a 59% brain region to loosen?
Is this possible?
Mi Jiala thought for a brief moment, then her expression returned to normal.
Divine-ranked Pets possess incredible abilities; perhaps when Mihei Ramu caused Qiao Sang’s brain region to break through 59%, it had already begun to loosen.
This is just loosening, not a breakthrough…
Even though she thought this, Mi Jiala’s tone still carried a hint of complexity:
“Then listen to the Tenth Seat and rest well these days…”
Qiao Sang nodded “Mm” and lowered her head to look through the content the Zhendai Bird had previously posted.
They were mostly photos, with very few videos.
The accompanying captions were all emoji patterns, without any text.
The most liked content was a video of the Zhendai Bird earnestly calling out “Zhendai, Zhendai” to the camera.
It wasn’t hard to guess from the comments that this content was about it going on a journey to seek opportunities to break through to the Venerable rank.
Qiao Sang finished watching all the content it had posted and immediately gave up the idea of typing a private message.
She had originally wanted to contact the Zhendai Bird to see if it would notice and actively contact her, but it seemed the Zhendai Bird was probably illiterate…
“Xiao Xunbao~”
Just as she was thinking, Xiao Xunbao had come over at some point.
“Why aren’t you training?” Qiao Sang turned and asked.
“Xiao Xunbao~”
Xiao Xunbao spread its paws, its eyes sparkling as it looked over and called out, indicating it wanted to use the phone now.
“What do you need the phone for?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Xiao Xunbao…”
Xiao Xunbao sighed and called out, indicating it still wanted to do tasks.
The Net Blood Fruit from the Tenth Seat would still need over a year to bear fruit, and it didn’t want to wait over a year to earn 1000 points.
Only a phone can make you so diligent… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly, then thought of something and handed over the phone, saying,
“This account with the ID ‘I Am Fire’ belongs to the Zhendai Bird.
If you can help me contact it, I’ll give you 100 points.”
Although the Senior Kang Yang said he would help inquire, rather than waiting for an unknown period, she still wanted to try searching herself.
The Youvision app incorporated voice comments to allow Pets to download and play with it.
The Zhendai Bird didn’t type any of its content, and it only replied to some voice messages from Pets when occasionally responding to netizens.
She probably had no hope of contacting it herself by typing, but Xiao Xunbao might have a chance.
“Xiao Xunbao?!”
Xiao Xunbao’s eyes suddenly lit up, and it called out with an excited expression.
100 points?!
Qiao Sang smiled and said, “That’s right.”
Anyway, if they did manage to contact it, she wouldn’t have to pay these 100 points herself; she just had to deduct them from the already illusory 1000 points.
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Xiao Xunbao’s expression became serious, and it called out, indicating that it guaranteed to complete the task, then solemnly took the phone with both paws.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but smile.
Then she remembered the Tenth Seat’s words and looked at Colored Flower Bud Shalala, asking, “Do you want to go for a walk in the garden?”
“Shala!”
Colored Flower Bud Shalala happily nodded.
Qiao Sang got up and took Colored Flower Bud Shalala to the garden.
Mi Jiala watched from behind, falling silent.
…
As a former internet-addicted Pet, Xiao Xunbao was proficient in the operations and functions of various software.
After a simple study, it knew how to use the Youvision app.
“Xiao Xunbao~”
“Xiao Xunbao~”
“Xiao Xunbao~”
Xiao Xunbao spoke in a high-pitched voice, sending voice messages to the “I Am Fire” account.
After sending three voice private messages, a line of text popped up above:
【You can only send three messages until the other party replies or you follow each other.】
Xiao Xunbao was silent for a moment, then sent another message, unwilling to give up.
However, a red exclamation mark appeared before the fourth voice message, indicating that the sending failed.
“Xiao Xunbao…”
Xiao Xunbao had no choice but to send voice comments under the Zhendai Bird’s past posts.
Unfortunately, it sent them for a long time, but there was no response.
“Xiao Xunbao!”
“Xiao Xunbao…”
“Xun…”
Xiao Xunbao went from being initially full of fighting spirit, gradually becoming silent, until finally, its entire body slumped onto the sofa, its eyes dull.
“Qingqing?”
Just then, Qingbao floated into the living room from the outdoor training ground, stretched out its paw, and called out.
Xiao Xunbao, with dull eyes, took off its ring and mechanically pulled out an energy recovery liquid from inside, handing it over.
“Qingqing?”
Qingbao drank the energy recovery liquid in one gulp, showing a confused expression, and called out, indicating, “What’s wrong with you?”
“Xiao Xunbao…”
Xiao Xunbao lay on the sofa, its eyes listless, and recounted the task its Yu Beast Master had given it.
“Qingqing.”
Qingbao showed an expression of “I thought it was a big deal,” and called out, indicating, “Give me the phone; watch me contact the Zhendai Bird.”
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Xiao Xunbao’s eyes lit up again, and it handed over the phone.
Qingbao took the phone, was silent for a moment, then called out:
“Qingqing?”
How do I contact it?
Xiao Xunbao: “…”
Xiao Xunbao was also silent for a moment, then taught Qingbao how to send voice comments.
After some teaching, Qingbao finally understood how to use it.
“Qingqing.”
“Qingqing.”
It coughed and began sending voice messages in the comment section.
However, it sent them for a long time, but there was no response.
“Qingqing…” Qingbao’s forehead began to sweat, and under Xiao Xunbao’s gaze, it bravely continued to send messages.
“Qingqing.”
“Qingqing.”
“Qingqing.”
“Xiao Xunbao…”
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Xunbao slumped back onto the sofa, calling out, indicating, “You’re no good either.”
“Qingqing…”
Qingbao was powerless to refute.
“Ya ya?”
Ya! happened to walk in at this moment, called out, indicating, “What’s wrong with you two?”
“Xiao Xunbao…”
Xiao Xunbao straightened up, showing a wronged expression, and called out.
“Qingqing…”
Qingbao sighed deeply and nodded, agreeing with Xiao Xunbao’s statement.
“Ya Ya!”
Ya! called out, indicating, “Isn’t it just asking the Zhendai Bird out? What’s so hard about it? Give me the phone.”
Saying that, it jumped onto the sofa, sat down, and extended its paw.
Qingbao handed over the phone.
Seeing that Brother Ya! was helping, Xiao Xunbao’s heart couldn’t help but rekindle hope.
“Ya ya?”
But the next second, Ya! called out, indicating, “How do I contact it?”
Xiao Xunbao: “…”
Qingbao: “…”
Xiao Xunbao had to teach it again.
“Ya ya.”
Ya! listened for a long time and finally understood how to operate it, nodding its head.
Then, its paw pressed on the “Hold to Speak” function, and it called out:
“Ya Ya!”
“Do you have time to meet? Let’s have a fight.”
“Xiao Xunbao…”
Xiao Xunbao sighed upon hearing this.
Saying that wouldn’t work.
“Ya ya…”
Ya! reflected for a moment.
Doesn’t that work?
If someone said that to it, it would definitely come out and fight them.
Just as Ya! was pondering what to say instead, a red number 1 suddenly appeared in the message column.
Xiao Xunbao’s eyes suddenly lit up, and it called out:
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Then, it took the phone and clicked on the message.
A message had indeed been sent from the “I Am Fire” chat box.
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Xiao Xunbao called out excitedly.
“Qingqing.”
“Ya Ya!”
Qingbao and Ya! also became happy.
Xiao Xunbao opened it and saw it was a voice message.
It clicked play.
A voice full of disdain came from it:
“Zhendai.”
