Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 209: exercise ring
After the video finished playing, Qiao Sang asked, “Do you like any of them?”
“Lulu!”
Water Luyana shook her head like a rattle-drum.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang didn’t give up. She immediately picked up her phone and was about to search for more video compilations of other celebrity Pets.
At this moment, Water Luyana pressed her paw onto the phone screen.
“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang asked, looking up.
“Lulu?”
Water Luyana looked confused, very curious why Qiao Sang was showing her these, when it had clearly been agreed that they were going to train to become stronger.
Although Qiao Sang couldn’t understand what Water Luyana was saying, she had, after all, raised Ya Bao and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost for a while, and could somewhat guess their thoughts from the expressions of the Pets.
Of course, the accuracy was unknown…
“Are you asking me why I’m showing you this?” Qiao Sang guessed.
“Lulu.”
Water Luyana nodded.
Very good, I guessed correctly… Qiao Sang carefully phrased, “If you want to become stronger, the most effective way is to evolve. I’ve looked into it, and if you want to evolve, you need to experience the feeling of heartbreak on a rainy day. The emotional power that surges within you will then prompt your evolution.”
“Lulu…”
Water Luyana looked shocked. She hadn’t expected her evolution condition to be so abnormal.
“So I’m showing you these videos to understand what type of Pet you like,” Qiao Sang said.
“Lulu…”
Water Luyana looked bewildered. She had never considered this question…
After Ya Bao finished today’s training, what he saw was the scene of his Yu Beast Master and Water Luyana leaning their heads together, looking at a phone.
“Is this one okay?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Lulu.” Water Luyana shook her head.
“What about this one?” Qiao Sang continued to ask.
“Lulu.” Water Luyana shook her head again.
“Ya?”
At this moment, Ya Bao’s head poked over.
What are they looking at?
“Lulu!”
Before Qiao Sang could answer, she heard Water Luyana cry out in a panic, and then instantly transformed into a blue light, running towards the courtyard.
Qiao Sang: “???”
Ya Bao: “???”
“Did you scare her?” After a moment, Qiao Sang asked in confusion.
“Ya Ya…”
Ya Bao shook his head helplessly, with the same bewildered expression.
That elderly Pet didn’t seem that timid…
…
August 29th.
Qiao Sang woke up early, not because her biological clock woke her automatically, but because Little Treasure Hunting Ghost woke her up.
“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang didn’t have much morning grumpiness, she just rubbed her sleepy eyes good-naturedly and asked.
“Xun!”
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost held the ring with both paws, happily showing it off in front of her Yu Beast Master.
Qiao Sang’s eyes suddenly widened. She shot up from the bed, shocked, and exclaimed, “You’ve cultivated your Ghost Fire?!”
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost nodded vigorously, then tossed the ring upward. It stopped in mid-air, and a幽green Ghost Fire appeared in the center of the ring.
It really cultivated it!
Looking at the Ghost Fire emanating a cold aura from the ring, Qiao Sang felt a little dazed.
She remembered searching online about how long it usually took for a Treasure Hunting Ghost to cultivate Ghost Fire.
Without exception, the answer she got was usually around three months. Some Treasure Hunting Ghosts with poor aptitude might even need double the time for the ring to fully absorb the materials, and then use Ghost Fire from it.
However, her own Treasure Hunting Ghost had been practicing for less than 20 days.
This aptitude was unparalleled…
But thinking about it carefully, it was quite normal for Little Treasure Hunting Ghost to cultivate Ghost Fire so quickly. After all, it could even learn the high-level skill Dark Shadow Control from playing a virtual helmet, let alone just shortening the speed of cultivating Ghost Fire.
With this thought, Qiao Sang felt that it was actually nothing for her Little Treasure Hunting Ghost to cultivate Ghost Fire in less than 20 days; it was all basic operation.
Even so, she couldn’t help but smile.
“Awesome, you learned it in such a short time,” Qiao Sang praised with a smile, “Treasure Hunting Ghosts older than you aren’t as impressive as you.”
“Xiao Xunbao~”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost was a little shy from the praise, and scratched her head sheepishly.
“Since you have Ghost Fire, we should move on to the next step,” Qiao Sang said, “Next, you need to use Ghost Fire to temper the ring, and try to split it into two, like this.”
As she spoke, Qiao Sang searched for short videos of Treasure Hunting Ghosts tempering their rings with Ghost Fire to show Little Treasure Hunting Ghost.
Short videos, due to their high interactivity and strong entertainment value, spread rapidly among young people. Many Yu Beast Masters would upload short videos about their Pets’ training process to gain attention.
As long as you searched for keywords online, you would find a ton of them, and there were also many apps for short videos.
The most popular short video app was called “Yu Yu,” and it basically contained all sorts of content about Pets.
Qiao Sang searched for Treasure Hunting Ghost tempering ring videos on Yu Yu.
She clicked on the first video that appeared after the search.
The Treasure Hunting Ghost in the screen had a ring on its head, its eyes were tightly closed, and it extended two short toes, joining them together in front of its eyes.
The next second, the entire ring ignited with a幽green Ghost Fire.
Why does this pose look so much like a ritual… Qiao Sang mumbled inwardly, sliding her finger up the screen, and the video skipped.
In the second video, the Treasure Hunting Ghost continuously rotated the ring, which was covered in Ghost Fire, on its short toes.
That wasn’t enough. It tossed the ring upwards, and when it fell, the ring landed on another short toe and began to spin.
Goodness, isn’t this just acrobatics… Qiao Sang gave up and turned to Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, saying, “In short, it’s like what you saw in the video, just burn the ring completely from the inside out with Ghost Fire. When it reaches a certain critical point, you should sense that the ring shows signs of splitting into two.”
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost nodded with a serious expression.
…
After washing up and eating breakfast, Qiao Sang left as usual, but found that the number of people looking back at her was significantly higher than usual.
A while ago, because of Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, passersby would look like they wanted to see but didn’t dare, yet were still secretly peeking.
But today, people on the street were staring with wide eyes, openly observing, and almost everyone was frantically taking pictures with their phones.
Even more so, some who were on the phone immediately hung up without a word and opened their cameras to point at her.
Qiao Sang’s heart tightened. Had Water Luyana in her backpack peeked out?
She quickly pulled the backpack from behind her to the front.
The backpack zipper was slightly open, but from the outside, there was no sign of Water Luyana at all.
Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief, but soon felt puzzled.
Since they couldn’t see Water Luyana, why were they looking like they had seen something new and strange? Could it be that Ya Bao had become more handsome?
“Ya…”
Ya Bao also felt at this moment that he might have become more handsome. He slightly raised his head and walked forward with proud steps.
Little did he know, the Little Treasure Hunting Ghost on his Yu Beast Master’s head, with eyes tightly closed, two short toes joined together in front of her eyes, and a ring on her head burning with Ghost Fire, was the object that attracted passersby to frantically take pictures.
Just as Qiao Sang was wondering why the number of people looking back had suddenly increased again, her phone vibrated.
Who would call her at this time? Qiao Sang came back to her senses, took out her phone, and looked at the lit screen—Song Yuan.
