Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 492: Video commentary

When Qiao Sang woke up, it was just after dawn, and the room was still a bit dim.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw Xiao Xunbao holding a phone in one paw and covering its mouth with the other, chuckling.

The phone screen illuminated its face, and a faint sound was coming from it, indicating it was watching a video.

“What are you watching? So happy,” Qiao Sang asked, sitting up.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao’s eyes lit up when it saw its Yu Beast Master awake, and it eagerly brought the phone over, called out, indicating “quick, look,” and thoughtfully used its paw to drag the video’s progress bar to the very beginning.

Qiao Sang looked over.

The video playing was exactly the scene of Xiao Xunbao’s eyes glowing purple as it was struck by lightning from Paleo.

At this moment, the camera gave a close-up of Xiao Xunbao’s purple eyes.

The blogger’s voice came from within: “Here! This is it! Decline Luck Curse! Ghost Ring Spirit! The culprit that made Paleo lose the match!”

The video was still playing, but it had already switched to the scene of Paleo battling Ya Bao.

“Everyone, look, when Tang Yi said Ten Thousand Volts, Paleo’s eyes were sharp, clearly in a battle-ready state, but when Liao Xing Hound attacked, it remained completely motionless!”

“Why? Because it was stunned! Why stunned? Because its Ten Thousand Volts simply couldn’t be released!”

“Although we didn’t interview Qiao Sang, from Tang Yi and Pareolulu’s interviews, it’s not hard for us to guess that the Ghost Ring Spirit from before had the Curse Body ability!”

“Curse Body means that when a Pet with this ability is attacked, there is a 30% chance for the target to be unable to use the last move it used previously.”

“As the level of Curse Body increases, the chance of falling into this state also increases.”

“Previously, Paleo used Ten Thousand Volts to attack the Ghost Ring Spirit at the end, so it couldn’t use this move when battling Liao Xing Hound.”

“Let’s look here again.”

Following the blogger’s voice, the screen had already played to the scene where Mars Rain and Destructive Beam simultaneously attacked Paleo.

“Tang Yi mentioned in his interview that Paleo couldn’t move at all here, so it couldn’t dodge the Destructive Beam by moving and could only passively endure the damage.”

“Why couldn’t it move? Here, we have to mention that Ghost Ring Spirit again.”

“That’s right! It’s it again!”

“We reasonably speculate that the Ghost Ring Spirit also has the Curse Body ability!”

“Curse Body: When a Pet with this ability is attacked, there is a 30% chance that the opponent will fall into an immobile state for a certain period of time.”

“Similarly, as the level of Curse Body increases, the chance of falling into this state increases, and the duration of immobility also lengthens.”

At this point, the video showed Paleo struggling to stand up and unleash Destructive Beam.

The blogger’s voice suddenly rose:

“The most critical turning point has arrived!”

“Are you all excited seeing this! Thinking Paleo has bounced back!”

“My feelings are the same as yours, because I was watching the live broadcast at home, and I couldn’t control myself and screamed directly. My neighbor aunt thought something happened to me, came over to knock on the door, and almost called the police for me.”

“Ahem, I’ve strayed too far, let’s get back to the main topic.”

When the blogger finished this sentence, the Paleo in the picture was already slowly shrinking.

“I believe everyone has guessed it, that’s right, it’s the Ghost Ring Spirit again and again!”

“This time, it’s the Ghost Ring Spirit’s Decline Luck Curse that took effect. Don’t ask me how I know, combining Tang Yi and Pareolulu’s interviews, plus at such a critical moment Paleo transformed back into Pareolulu, what else could it be besides Decline Luck Curse!”

“In fact, I suspect that Paleo being affected by Curse Body and Curse Body was also due to the effect of Decline Luck Curse.”

“Otherwise, how could it be so unlucky!”

“From the very beginning of its battle with Liao Xing Hound, it couldn’t display any normal strength! First, Ten Thousand Volts couldn’t be used, then it was stuck on the ground unable to move, and finally, after barely enduring the Profound Level Mars Rain and Destructive Beam, it actually transformed back into Pareolulu at the crucial moment!”

At this point, the video screen changed back to the original scene where Xiao Xunbao’s eyes glowed purple as it was struck by lightning in front of Paleo.

The blogger concluded:

“So from the beginning, this was a conspiracy; Qiao Sang deliberately let the Ghost Ring Spirit be attacked!”

“The Ghost Ring Spirit was the key Pet that won this match!”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

The video ended here, and Xiao Xunbao smoothed its front hair, revealing an expression of “I am indeed so excellent.”

Qiao Sang almost laughed out loud looking at Xiao Xunbao’s appearance: “I told you, the main reason we won this match was because of your abilities and curses.”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao grinned, happily floating around the room.

Qiao Sang picked up her phone and found that this video was trending at number five.

No wonder Xiao Xunbao could see this… Qiao Sang began to browse the comments:

[Curse Body + Curse Body + Decline Luck Curse, I can only say, Ghost Ring Spirit is awesome!]

[Holy crap, I was wondering why a General-level Pet was just passively taking hits, turns out it couldn’t move, that’s too miserable!]

[No way, if Ghost Ring Spirit has these two abilities, plus Decline Luck Curse, with these three effects stacked, who would dare to hit it?!]

[Gotta say, although Ghost-type Pets are a bit scary, their strength is undeniable. Even if you manage to defeat one, it can still make the opponent so uncomfortable.]

[The more I analyze, the more I feel Qiao Sang is terrifying…]

There are still many talented people online, they analyzed Xiao Xunbao’s two abilities so quickly… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly.

After reading comments for a while, Qiao Sang opened her messaging app, routinely checking for messages.

The messaging app already had 99+ unread messages, almost all congratulating her on winning the championship.

She quickly scanned them, and her gaze suddenly stopped on one particular message.

[Yu Ke: When do you have time, should we meet? (humble.jpg)]

Yu Ke… I almost forgot about this investor… The Vice Principal seemed to have booked the flight back to Yuhua Region for tonight… Qiao Sang thought for a moment and typed a reply:

[This morning at ten, at Mo Ting Hotel.]

Almost the second the message was sent, her phone vibrated.

[Yu Ke: Okay!]

This guy can’t be only a freshman, waking up so early… Qiao Sang looked at the time at the top of the screen, 6:11 AM, and couldn’t help but inwardly complain.

An hour later, Ya Bao woke up.

After a simple wash-up, Qiao Sang carried Ya Bao, who was wearing a lightweight shrinking bracelet, to the hotel’s top-floor restaurant.

She had just picked up some steamed buns, fruit, and milk from the buffet area when she saw the Vice Principal and a Middle-aged Man, whose jowls sagged a bit from being overweight, walk over.

“Qiao Sang, perfect timing, I was just about to look for you.” Liu Yao smiled: “Let me introduce you, this is Minister Zhou from Yuhua Region.”
