Chapter 130: news

However, no one paid attention to this scene; all eyes were on the Yan Ling Dog at this moment.

Shi Gaofeng and Wang Yao stared blankly at the abnormally wide Flame Vortex before them.

This… it succeeded on the first try?

That’s impossible…

They knew that their skill compression and deformation only showed some progress each week, building on the previous week’s efforts.

Today’s test was a success only after a full month of training.

But not only did the Yan Ling Dog succeed, the width of the Flame Vortex it released looked almost the same as Wang Yao’s Big Flame Sparrow… Shi Gaofeng turned to look at the still-dazed Wang Yao.

Wang Yao was lost in thought, not knowing what she was thinking.

“Yan Yan!”

Meanwhile, the Big Flame Sparrow flapped its wings in place, looking at Ya Bao with a strong fighting spirit, no longer appearing lazy as before.

“Ya.”

Ya Bao was sharing its success with its Yu Beast Master when it heard the Big Flame Sparrow’s cry and turned to meet its gaze.

It saw fighting intent in the Big Flame Sparrow’s eyes.

Ya Bao paused, then its eyes changed, meeting the gaze without flinching.

“Ya!”

“Yan Yan!”

The two Fire-type Pets’ gazes met, Sparks flying between their eyes; if their respective Yu Beast Masters hadn’t been nearby, they would have started fighting directly.

Qiao Sang watched from the side and did not stop them.

In her opinion, competition between Pets was a good thing, as it would promote progress. If Wang Yao was willing, they could arrange a private battle.

“Cough.” Zheng Guoping cleared his throat.

At this, everyone looked at him.

Qiao Sang looked at Zheng Baolong and was startled: “Teacher, what happened to your forehead?”

Zheng Guoping looked at Qiao Sang, his eyes full of complexity.

Feeling the pain in his forehead, he took a deep breath and said, “I’m fine.”

Whose fault was it?

It was his own fault, for not believing in the genius’s ability and foolishly walking forward.

…

After a day of training, Qiao Sang dragged her exhausted body back to the dormitory.

Ya Bao lay on the ground, too tired to float in the air and practice its psychokinesis as usual.

The training intensity for second-year students was indeed incomparable to that of first-year students.

Just the physical training alone increased from 10 laps to 20, but thankfully, Yu Beast Masters were not required to run all laps with their Pets.

Otherwise, she would definitely be crippled.

Moreover, they were given individual Gravity rooms based on their Pet’s endurance, allowing them to adjust the Gravity themselves, which was quite humane.

All in all, the training was much more effective than in the first year.

Qiao Sang’s thoughts turned, and as she looked around the room, she suddenly felt something was missing.

She paused, then her body, which had been leaning against the headboard, suddenly sat up and formed a seal.

“Xun.”

“Xiao Xunbao.”

The gray star array lit up, and the Little Treasure Hunting Ghost appeared in the star array, letting out two resentful cries.

Qiao Sang gave an awkward laugh, then changed the subject: “You must be hungry, right? Hurry and get some milk to drink.”

The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost paused, then sensed itself.

It seemed to be hungry…

It took off its ring, pulled out a milk carton, and took two sips, its eyes curving into a crescent moon, forgetting to continue complaining.

Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back against the headboard, and took out her phone to check.

The Vice Principal hadn’t contacted her yet, but people in the first-year School Team group were all tagging her.

Qiao Sang opened the group.

Messages were still constantly refreshing.

[Fang Qi: The Pet in this news looks like Qiao Sang’s, could it be the same one?]

[Jiang Nai: It’s the same type of Pet, but probably not the same one.]

[Fang Qi: I think it’s the same one, the time of the news report is so close to when Qiao Sang’s Fire Fang Dog evolved.]

[Peng Xiaoyuan: But it says it’s the first new form of the Fire Fang Dog to appear. If that’s the case, doesn’t it mean Qiao Sang is the first person to evolve a Fire Fang Dog into a new form?]

[Lu Liangye: Others can now contract two Pets and even evolve a Fire Fang Dog, what’s impossible about that?]

[Jiang Nai: But during that time, wasn’t she with us at school?]

[Fang Qi: Did you forget she was suddenly taken away by Xian Teacher?]

[Cheng Xiaoyun: Hurry and tag her to ask!]

[Fang Qi: I’ve been tagging for a long time, she probably hasn’t seen her phone.]

[Wang Jihang: The big shot is currently training with the second-year School Team, not as idle as us.]

[Jiang Nai: Oh, your words sound so sour, don’t they?]

[Cheng Xiaoyun: Then tag her again!]

[Qiao Sang: No need to tag, it’s probably my Fire Fang Dog they’re talking about.]

She had just scrolled up and read the news they were talking about.

The news was from today.

It was about the Fire Fang Dog’s new form.

The picture used was from her time at Jin Yu Building, from the perspective of the office door. It was probably taken by the Staff who were watching the commotion at the time.

However, the news specifically stated that this information had been confirmed by a certain High Level researcher, indicating its authenticity and reliability. It should be more than just Song Yuan’s doing.

If there were no surprises, the Vice Principal would be this certain High Level researcher.

The release of this news would certainly attract public attention. Combined with the Vice Principal’s mention of all the researchers being present, it was not difficult to guess that it was to gain attention from above and expedite the project’s approval.

Otherwise, the Staff would have leaked the news earlier; why wait several days for this news to come out?

The first-year School Team group went wild because of Qiao Sang’s words, unable to say anything but exclamations.

Qiao Sang closed her phone and did not continue chatting with them, because at this moment, Xian Teacher had appeared out of nowhere in front of her.

This was too fast; it wasn’t even 6 PM yet…

The Tian Xian Bat’s claws moved slightly.

“Wait!” Qiao Sang shouted, stopping it.

“Xian?”

The Tian Xian Bat tilted its head in confusion.

The Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s eyes darted, and it pulled out milk from its ring and handed it over.

“Xun~”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

The Tian Xian Bat looked at the milk, paused, then took it.

Qiao Sang gave the Little Treasure Hunting Ghost an appreciative look.

“Xian Teacher, Ya Bao just finished training and is all sweaty; it hasn’t showered yet. Can we go after it takes a bath?” Qiao Sang said.

The other person was here specifically to see Ya Bao, so it should go in good spirits.

“Xian.” The Tian Xian Bat, holding the milk, nodded agreeably.

Ya Bao, who had been keeping its eyes closed, trembled slightly upon hearing the conversation.

A bath?

A bath?!

It should just pretend to be asleep…

Qiao Sang could tell at a glance that Ya Bao was awake.

Every time she asked it to bathe, it was like this: either pretending to be asleep, or pretending to be busy, or sometimes just pretending it didn’t understand.

Qiao Sang thought for two seconds and came up with a plan.

“Don’t you want to look in the mirror? The first time you see your current self, shouldn’t you take a bath and get dressed up to look handsome before going?”

Ya Bao perked its ears, and the next second, its eyes opened, and it got up and walked towards the bathroom.

“Ya.”

“Ya Ya.”

After taking two steps, it didn’t forget to turn back and urge its Yu Beast Master to follow it.

Qiao Sang: “…”

…

Yue He Hotel.

Jiqing Pavilion private room.

When Qiao Sang was teleported here, she found only the Vice Principal sitting at the table.

“The others had some issues on the way and should arrive later. You don’t need to worry about them, just sit down and eat something first.” Liu Yao looked calmly at Qiao Sang, who had been teleported over.

Apparently, having someone suddenly appear in front of him at any time was already commonplace for him.

After Qiao Sang sat down, Liu Yao smiled and asked, “How was training with the second-year School Team today? Is there anything you don’t understand?”

Qiao Sang paused, something she didn’t understand?

There really was.

“I heard that everyone in the second-year School Team has contracted two Pets, but today, why did I only see them training one?” Qiao Sang asked.
