Chapter 228: Diligence can make up for weakness

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost couldn’t listen anymore and appeared to translate.

“Xun.”

“Xiao Xunbao.”

Qiao Sang then realized that Water Luyana was asking about Yabao.

“When did your relationship get so good?” Qiao Sang asked.

In her impression, Water Luyana always disliked Yabao. Even though they hadn’t fought recently, Water Luyana would turn her head away when she saw Yabao, as if she didn’t even want to make eye contact.

Now, Yabao was just not appearing as usual, and Water Luyana actually noticed and was concerned about Yabao’s whereabouts. This was illogical…

“Lulu!”

“Lulu!”

“Lulu!”

Hearing Qiao Sang’s words, Water Luyana’s expression froze, and then her fur bristled. She emerged halfway, gesticulating excitedly, looking severely slandered.

Frightened, Qiao Sang quickly whispered to soothe her: “I know, I know, hurry back inside, people nearby are looking.”

She just asked casually, why such a strong reaction…

Water Luyana’s body went back inside, but her head was still exposed, her deep eyes staring at Qiao Sang.

“Lulu…”

“Xiao Xunbao~” Little Treasure Hunting Ghost translated at the opportune moment.

Goodness, it still hadn’t forgotten to continue asking about Yabao… Qiao Sang recounted what happened at school today.

One minute later.

“That’s how it is, so we have to go to the Yu Beast Center first to get Yabao some Healing,” Qiao Sang said.

“Lulu!”

After listening, Water Luyana called out with a serious expression.

Before Qiao Sang could guess what Water Luyana was saying, Little Treasure Hunting Ghost very perceptively began to translate.

Qiao Sang paused, then asked, “Are you saying you can heal Yabao?”

“Lulu!”

Water Luyana nodded vigorously.

Qiao Sang recalled one piece of information she had seen online about Water Luyana.

[It is said that even if it loses an arm or a leg, as long as the gem on its head lights up, there is nothing that cannot be restored.]

There had been so many things recently that she had almost forgotten that Water Luyana was a super healer…

“Then I’ll leave it to you!” Qiao Sang said solemnly.

“Lulu!”

…

Back home, Qiao Sang summoned Yabao.

At this moment, Yabao had already regained consciousness under the effect of the yu beast codex, but it was still injured and in poor condition.

“Ya!”

As soon as Yabao came out, it wagged its tail happily at its Yu Beast Master.

Before it could wag its tail a couple more times, a blue light enveloped its body.

“Yaya…”

Yabao showed a comfortable expression.

Qiao Sang watched from the side, dumbfounded. Yabao’s wounds were Healing at a visible rate, taking at most about five seconds from start to finish.

What a divine skill!

If she contracted Water Luyana, the survival rate in secret realms would skyrocket.

After the Healing, the blue light from the gem on Water Luyana’s forehead faded. Seeing Yabao look at it, its face flushed, its ears perked up, and with a whoosh, it ran towards the courtyard.

Qiao Sang paused, “How did you offend it again just now?”

“Ya…”

Yabao tilted its head, its expression bewildered.

It didn’t know either.

…

After dinner, Qiao Sang returned to her room to do her homework.

Students don’t have to worry about food or clothes, but they often feel miserable, mainly because they have to do homework every day.

Fortunately, Qiao Sang had experienced the transition from student to working adult in her previous life, so she had no complaints about doing homework.

Only those who have experienced the life of a social animal know how happy student life is.

Qiao Sang carefully looked at the exercises in her hand.

In the Yu Beast society, high school subjects are basically linked to Pets.

For example, the math problem she held: [Teams A and B are competing in a Yu Beast team battle, using a best-of-seven format. Team A’s home and away arrangements are “home, home, away, away, home, away, home” in sequence. Assume the probability of Team A winning at home is 0.6, and the probability of winning away is 0.5, and the results of each match are independent. What is the probability of Team A winning 4:1?]

Qiao Sang concentrated and answered quickly.

Now she had a sufficient understanding of the Yu Beast world, so she wouldn’t be as confused as she was on the day she first arrived, staring blankly at the questions.

If it had been back then, she would have probably pondered for a long time just looking at the words “Yu Beast team battle.”

After an unknown amount of time writing, a blue paw suddenly rested on the exercise book.

Qiao Sang jumped, turning her head to find it was Water Luyana.

“How are you so elusive, just like Little Treasure Hunting Ghost?” Qiao Sang said, clutching her chest.

“Lulu.” Water Luyana called out with a serious expression.

Combining Water Luyana’s expression with its sudden approach, Qiao Sang abruptly stood up and said excitedly:

“Did you find a Pet you like on your phone?!”

Water Luyana’s expression stiffened, followed by a finger-thick Water Gun spraying directly onto Qiao Sang’s face.

Qiao Sang: “…”

If it’s not, it’s not. Can’t we just communicate properly? Why spray water… Qiao Sang wiped her face and called out tiredly, “Xiao Xunbao!”

“Xun~”

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost instantly appeared in the room.

“You be the translator,” Qiao Sang said.

“Xiao Xunbao~” Little Treasure Hunting Ghost nodded.

Under Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s translation, Qiao Sang finally understood Water Luyana’s intention.

“You want to learn new skills?” Qiao Sang asked.

“Lulu.”

Water Luyana nodded.

Qiao Sang looked thoughtful.

Indeed, in Water Luyana’s mind, the only ways to become stronger, besides evolution, were to learn new skills. It still didn’t know that it actually didn’t have much time left…

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but soften and said, “Okay, let’s go to the courtyard now. First, show me the skills you know, and then I’ll think about what skills would be best for you to learn.”

“Lulu.”

…

In the courtyard.

Qiao Sang, Yabao, and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost watched Water Luyana by the pond.

Water Luyana opened its mouth, and dozens of transparent bubbles emerged.

“Bubble Beam…” Qiao Sang said, looking down and writing in her notebook.

Soon, another Water Gun was sprayed.

After the Water Gun finished, Water Luyana swung its tail forcefully, and a stream of water completely enveloped its tail.

Then it dispersed the water from its tail, stomped its front paw on the ground, and a Water Mist instantly filled the air.

“Water Gun, Water Tail, Water Mist…”

After recording the skills it had performed, Qiao Sang saw that Water Luyana hadn’t moved for a long time, so she looked up and said, “Keep going.”

Water Luyana blinked.

Qiao Sang paused, and then a bad premonition welled up in her heart. She hesitated, “You… you don’t only know these four moves, do you?”

Water Luyana was displeased upon hearing this. Was it being criticized for having too few skills?!

It raised its head and proudly pointed its paw at the cerulean gem on its forehead.

…“Hmm, impressive, and Healing.”

Looking at the proud Water Luyana in front of her, Qiao Sang secretly sighed.

She never expected Water Luyana’s aptitude to be so poor.

Seven years.

It was almost at the end of its life, yet it only knew five skills…

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost knew five from birth…

“Lulu?”

Seeing the human in front of it staring without speaking, Water Luyana tilted its head, its expression puzzled.

Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds, then said, “It’s okay, diligence makes up for lack of skill. I believe you can do it.”

Water Luyana: “???”
