Chapter 118: second option

“It’s Yanfire Potion, don’t worry, it’s good for Fire-type Pets,” Liu Yao said with a smile.

Qiao Sang almost yelled.

She was worried precisely because it was good for Fire-type Pets!

“Do you remember what I said about your Fire Fang Dog’s energy value already exceeding the normal range, yet it still hasn’t evolved?” Liu Yao asked.

Qiao Sang was panicking, but she still replied, “Its physical energy value hasn’t reached saturation.”

“Correct.” Liu Yao nodded. “A Pet’s energy value is primarily boosted by three factors: combat, its own growth, and appropriate resources.”

“However, even with resources, it’s not something that can be increased at will.”

“Pets with high talent grow and absorb resources quickly, while Pets with low talent grow slowly, and even if you feed them energy-boosting fruits like wan yan fruit, they can’t absorb them.”

“Some Yu Beast Masters, in order to make their Pets evolve earlier, inject or give them various energy potions, completely disregarding whether the Pet can handle it. This is not advisable.”

“Your Fire Fang Dog’s energy value exceeds the normal range, so its talent is definitely outstanding. The reason its energy value hasn’t reached saturation is either because it has entered a bottleneck period and cannot be temporarily improved, or because there are no corresponding energies for it to absorb.”

“So I fed it some wan yan fruit to test it. If it were the former, it would feel full after eating just one and couldn’t eat anymore, but it finished an entire plate.”

At this point, Liu Yao looked at Fire Fang Dog with a smile, “This indicates that your Fire Fang Dog has sufficient ability to absorb energy.”

“Just now, its teeth were itching, indicating that its energy was nearing saturation. The effect of Yanfire Potion is similar to a Fire-type Evolution Stone, but its effect is gentler than an Evolution Stone.”

“Evolution Stones have a forced boosting effect on Pets. Even if a Pet’s internal energy isn’t saturated, using a high-grade Evolution Stone can still complete the evolution.”

“However, Yanfire Potion only works when a Pet’s energy can no longer be increased at its current stage. Looking at Fire Fang Dog’s current state, if nothing unexpected happens, the Yanfire Potion should take effect perfectly in about half a day.”

Upon hearing the last sentence, Qiao Sang’s vision went black, and she nearly lost her footing.

Half a day? Evolve?

The next filming is still half a month away, right?

So, she had breached the contract?!

“Ya!”

Fire Fang Dog’s eyes burned with excitement upon hearing this.

Evolve!

It could finally evolve too!

Didn’t evolving mean it could become stronger!

“Ya!”

Fire Fang Dog turned its head, wanting to share its joy with Qiao Sang immediately.

But seeing its Yu Beast Master’s expression, it paused, and its previously excited heart became confused.

Its Yu Beast Master didn’t seem very happy about its evolution…

Liu Yao looked at Qiao Sang’s expression, slightly stunned, and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

Qiao Sang struggled to pull at the corners of her mouth, tears welling in her eyes, and said, “I… I’m too excited.”

“Don’t worry about it, this is what a teacher should do. You just need to study hard and not waste your talent. If you have any other problems, just tell me, and I will help you solve them,” Liu Yao said with a smile.

Qiao Sang chuckled twice, “I want to live off-campus.”

Liu Yao: “…”

“I also want to bring my phone during school.”

“…”

After Qiao Sang left, Liu Yao sat in his chair, bewildered, and said, “Old Xian, I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but I always feel that Qiao Sang didn’t seem very happy just now.”

“Xian.”

Tian Xian Bat flapped its wings.

It wasn’t an illusion; she became unhappy when she heard Fire Fang Dog was going to evolve.

But why?

Who could refuse to evolve?

It didn’t understand either.

…

Qiao Sang returned to her dorm, closed the door, and lay on the bed.

Hearing that Fire Fang Dog was going to evolve in half a day, she had no mood to continue attending today’s training camp.

Although the Vice Principal didn’t agree to the two requests of living off-campus and bringing a phone, he did agree to her skipping this afternoon’s training.

Qiao Sang lay on the bed, her eyes blank, staring at the ceiling.

Breaching the contract…

How much money would she have to pay in compensation…

She thought she had been very thorough by only signing a six-month contract, but she didn’t expect life to always hit you so suddenly…

“Ya.”

Fire Fang Dog looked at its Yu Beast Master and no longer felt the excitement it had when it learned it was about to evolve.

It hung its head, thinking about something by the bed.

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost looked at its Yu Beast Master, then at Fire Fang Dog, took off its ring, pulled out some milk from inside, and first offered it to its Yu Beast Master.

“Xun~”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Qiao Sang was thinking about the breach of contract fee and subconsciously took the item handed to her.

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s eyes curved, and it floated in front of Fire Fang Dog, pulling out a bottle of milk.

“Xun~”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Fire Fang Dog looked up, its wet eyes glancing at the milk, then at Qiao Sang, who was still in a daze.

“Ya.”

It shook its head and then lowered it again.

“Xun.”

“Xiao Xunbao.”

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost floated to Fire Fang Dog’s other side and pushed the milk forward.

“Ya.”

After Fire Fang Dog refused again, it walked to a corner of the room, sat down with its head down.

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost paused, then followed it.

It placed the milk on the ground, then floated to a position where Fire Fang Dog could see it, put its two short paws to its mouth, and pulled hard to make a funny face.

Fire Fang Dog didn’t react.

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost didn’t give up and kept changing its funny faces, trying to cheer it up.

“Xun~”

“Xun.”

“Xun…”

The commotion finally caught Qiao Sang’s attention.

She came back to her senses and looked at the corner of the room. When she saw Fire Fang Dog’s listless appearance, she paused.

She quickly got up from the bed, walked over quickly, picked up Fire Fang Dog, and worriedly asked, “Yabao, are you okay?”

This was Fire Fang Dog’s first evolution, and it was also her first time experiencing such a thing. Seeing Fire Fang Dog’s unusual behavior, she immediately worried if something was wrong.

Fire Fang Dog was startled by being suddenly picked up. It looked at its Yu Beast Master’s anxious face, its eyes reddened, and it buried its head in its Yu Beast Master’s arms.

“Ya.”

It shook its head, not crying.

“Xun!”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Seeing this, Little Treasure Hunting Ghost floated in front of its Yu Beast Master and gestured.

Something was wrong, very wrong!

Qiao Sang knew Fire Fang Dog very well. Looking at Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s gestures and recalling what had just happened, she immediately knew where the problem lay.

Fire Fang Dog’s personality was very strong. It must have been extremely excited about being able to evolve.

But as its Yu Beast Master, she had an emo expression, and it must have thought she was unwilling for it to evolve.

Qiao Sang sighed, held Fire Fang Dog above her head, looked into its eyes, and explained, “I’m actually very happy that you can evolve. I was just thinking about the endorsement.”

“Do you remember that endorsement? The sunglasses you filmed last time, the endorsement was signed for six months. According to the contract, you have to film again in half a month as a Fire Fang Dog, otherwise, we’ll have to pay compensation.”

She hadn’t planned to mention this. Just like last time, when she took off Fire Fang Dog’s Fire Condensing Pearl, she just lied that she was changing its rope.

In her opinion, her Pet only needed to do what it liked: training, eating, playing, without worrying about anything else.

Human society’s matters were too complicated for Pets, and besides, this was her responsibility in the first place.

But now Fire Fang Dog had clearly misunderstood, and she didn’t want it to misunderstand.

“Ya.”

Fire Fang Dog looked at its Yu Beast Master, stunned, and instinctively let out a cry.

“But it’s not a big problem, don’t worry, just evolve,” Qiao Sang said softly. “Do you remember the person we caught on the mountain last time? Because we caught him, we earned 5 million, which is enough to cover this breach of contract fee, and there will be a lot left over.”

Fire Fang Dog stared unblinkingly at its Yu Beast Master.

“To be honest, just thinking about seeing you in your Burning Fire Dog form today makes me quite excited. Have you seen your evolved form? It’s super cool!”

Qiao Sang was clearly trying to comfort Fire Fang Dog, but she ended up convincing herself.

That’s right, she still had 5 million. It’s just an evolution! It’s not like she couldn’t afford to evolve!

Qiao Sang placed Fire Fang Dog on the bed, pulled out her phone, and searched for pictures of Burning Fire Dog.

“Look, isn’t it handsome?” Qiao Sang put her phone in front of Fire Fang Dog and asked with a smile.

Fire Fang Dog didn’t look at the phone. It stared at its Yu Beast Master, recalling the days they had spent together since the contract.

It remembered the TV, the wall, the force meter, and the broken vase. Each time, its Yu Beast Master was so, so miserable.

Now, because it casually drank something and was going to evolve early, its Yu Beast Master was going to be miserable again.

Its Yu Beast Master was clearly unhappy, but she forced herself to be happy for its sake.

It could feel that its Yu Beast Master was genuinely happy now.

No one knew that at this moment, the page corresponding to Fire Fang Dog in Qiao Sang’s mind’s yu beast codex was glowing faintly, and an evolution option had appeared after its name.

There were two options in total, but the second option was faintly visible, sometimes the first option had a faint glow, and sometimes the second option also glowed faintly.

But clearly, the first option was brighter.

The next second, a dazzling white light emanated from Fire Fang Dog’s body.

I originally wanted to finish writing the evolution, but when I saw how late it was, it’s not as simple as evolving in the next second. Don’t worry, it will evolve tomorrow. The evolution also needs to be given its proper respect.
