Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 291: Wearing a door helmet (Happy New Year to everyone!)

The appearance of the girl at the classroom door instantly silenced the noisy students of Class 9.

At Saint Water Middle School, if you were to ask who was currently the most famous, it would undoubtedly be Qiao Sang.

Yesterday, Qiao Sang had just joined the third-year School Team, and that very night, all the boarding students received the news.

Such a central figure of conversation suddenly appearing at the classroom door truly left everyone stunned.

“Do you know Qiao Dashen?” A boy next to Liu Qijia asked gossiping, “How come I’ve never heard you mention it?”

Liu Qijia glanced at him, “Not really. It’s just that we both participated in the bare-handed Chop during the last sports meet.”

“I don’t believe it. If you didn’t know each other, would she come looking for you?” The boy had an expression that said, ‘Do you take me for a fool?’ “Dai Shushu always says she knows Qiao Dashen, but I’ve never seen Qiao Dashen specially come to our class to look for her.”

“Believe it or not.” Liu Qijia dropped that line and walked towards the classroom door.

The students still in the classroom all looked over.

Liu Qijia walked with a swagger.

Even though he appeared calm, he still felt a sense of exhilaration inside, but very quickly, that feeling of exhilaration withered away.

“Is the golden glove ready?” Qiao Sang asked.

Liu Qijia weakly replied, “I went to ask, but I don’t have enough money.”

Qiao Sang looked at him quietly.

In the silence, Liu Qijia felt tormented.

He couldn’t help but explain, “I just bought several large cans of energy powder a while ago to prepare for the sports meet, so I really don’t have much money left.”

Qiao Sang still understood this to some extent.

Although gold was not the mainstream investment product in today’s society, it was still a universally recognized circulating metal currency, with a price not much different from her previous life.

Although after becoming a Yu Beast Master, the pocket money given by family members would basically double and redouble, most of this money had to be spent on Pets, leaving not much left.

The other party was just a high school student, and asking him to buy a golden glove the size of her hand was indeed a bit difficult.

Qiao Sang thought for a while and decided to be a good person.

She was about to open her mouth to have the little Qunbao appear and show off its short claws, so Liu Qijia could buy a golden glove according to that size.

Just then, Liu Qijia spoke, “I also told my parents about this, but my dad didn’t believe it at all and thought I was trying to swindle money out of him.”

Speaking of this, he suddenly became excited, “Why don’t you come home with me and prove it to him!”

Qiao Sang asked, “Prove what?”

“Prove that the Treasure Hunting Fairy can really Chop!” Liu Qijia said, “My dad said that if I really lost to a Treasure Hunting Fairy that can Chop, he would never hit me again in this life, next life, or the life after that.”

Qiao Sang: “…”

“And your golden glove! He’ll pay for it!” Liu Qijia added.

It didn’t seem impossible. Going once to get a larger golden glove, this deal was worth it… Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, “You’re a boarding student, right? How about this weekend?”

Boarding students at Saint Water Middle School could usually go out on weekends, as long as they returned by the specified time in the evening.

Liu Qijia chuckled twice and said, “Why wait until the weekend? Let’s go today.”

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, “Aren’t you a boarding student?”

“Yes.” Liu Qijia said meaningfully, “But that doesn’t stop me from going out.”

Qiao Sang: “???”

“Wait a moment.” Liu Qijia finished speaking and shouted in a certain direction in the classroom, “Xiang Chengfei, come out!”

A cheerful male voice responded, “Coming!”

Qiao Sang looked towards the source of the sound and saw a boy whose skin was paler than most girls, and next to him sat a familiar face.

Qiao Sang was not surprised to see Dai Shushu in Class 9.

Originally, with Dai Shushu’s grades, she could have stayed in the Yu Chong Class, but ever since the Vice Principal came to Saint Water Middle School to take over the School Team, one or two more special recruits were selected into the Yu Chong Class each year.

As a result, the teachers of Class 9 had objections.

Although Class 9 was not the Yu Chong Class, with the advantage of special recruits, its admission rate was quite good every year.

If they encountered some outstanding special recruits, it was not impossible for them to get into Top Universities.

But now, out of the few special recruits each year, some were actually assigned to the Yu Chong Class, which meant that the admission rate was not guaranteed, and the teachers of Class 9 were naturally unwilling.

Therefore, in recent years, there have been examples of students who were recommended or whose middle school exam scores ranked among the top few in the entire school being selected into Class 9.

Qiao Sang had been studying at Saint Water Middle School for over a month, so she naturally knew about this.

Dai Shushu held a book in her hand.

She seemed to be reading, but if anyone looked closely, they would find that the book had not been turned since Qiao Sang appeared at the classroom door.

Qiao Sang naturally didn’t know that Dai Shushu couldn’t even read her book because of her. She just glanced and then withdrew her gaze.

Although her cultural score might not be as good as Dai Shushu’s, she no longer had any urge to consider Dai Shushu an opponent.

Different perspectives naturally lead to different goals.

Qiao Sang now only wanted to win first place in the National Campus Pet Beast League for the third-year section and obtain the qualification for the Interstellar Exchange Student program.

At this moment, the boy named Xiang Chengfei ran out and asked Liu Qijia, “What did you call me for?”

Liu Qijia put a hand on his shoulder and lowered his voice, “I’m going out tonight. Same old price, how about it?”

Qiao Sang, listening nearby, raised an eyebrow.

So, he intended to use special channels to go out.

“You’re going out with Qiao Dashen?” Xiang Chengfei stole a glance at Qiao Sang, who was standing nearby, and seeing that she was looking at him, he quickly averted his gaze.

“Yes.” Liu Qijia said, “Just tell me if it’s okay.”

Xiang Chengfei quickly replied, “Okay, why not.”

7:33 PM.

As soon as the third-year School Team’s training ended, Qiao Sang arrived at the agreed place.

The wall behind the school warehouse.

Liu Qijia and Xiang Chengfei had already been waiting there for about ten minutes.

Seeing Qiao Sang approach, Liu Qijia eagerly said, “Let’s go now.”

“Okay.” Qiao Sang nodded.

“Quickly summon your Door God!” Liu Qijia turned to Xiang Chengfei and said, “I need to get back before dorm checks!”

“What’s the rush?” Xiang Chengfei said he wasn’t in a hurry, but his movements didn’t slow down.

Under the white star array, a Pet about 30 centimeters in size, with a brown hemispherical shell and four small claws, appeared inside.

Qiao Sang was not unfamiliar with this Pet.

The Door-Piercing Helmet, a Ground-type Pet, possessed the Door-Opening characteristic. As long as it pressed itself against an object, it could turn that object into a door, allowing people to move freely.

When the Door-Piercing Helmet left the object, the opened part would return to its original state without leaving any traces.

It was a Pet favored by locksmiths, and Qiao Sang had seen it a few times in daily life.

“Door God, stick to it.” Xiang Chengfei lowered his head and said to the Door-Piercing Helmet.

“Door-door.”

The Door-Piercing Helmet nodded, waddled on its four small claws to the wall, and then very skillfully raised its front claws and lay on it.

“Hurry up, I still need to rush back for evening self-study.” Xiang Chengfei said, pushing the Door-Piercing Helmet that was stuck to the wall.

The solid wall instantly opened like a door, and the shape of the door was exactly the outer contour of the Door-Piercing Helmet.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon.” Liu Qijia said as he lay on the ground and crawled out through the Door-Piercing Helmet-shaped door.

His actions were no different from crawling through a dog hole.

After Liu Qijia went out, he poked his head out of the door, which was only about 30 centimeters high, and called out, “Qiao Sang, you come out quickly too.”

Qiao Sang was silent for a long time, then said, “No, I’ll use the main entrance.”

Liu Qijia: “???”
