Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 598: rescue plan
Senior Three, Class Six.
As soon as Qiao Sang entered the classroom and sat down in her seat, a group of classmates surrounded her.
“How did you do on the assessment?”
“Was the assessment for Zhongkong University on Super Dormant Star?”
“Why didn’t you try Meltar Academy?”
“It would be much better if you just stayed here for university.”
Ever since Qiao Sang secured first place for Sainan High School in the team friendly match, her classmates’ enthusiasm for her had subtly increased, already showing signs of her former popularity at Holy Water High School.
Qiao Sang didn’t feel bothered; instead, she smiled and chatted with them.
Suddenly, a female classmate asked:
“Is District 25 dangerous?”
The fact that the assessment was held in District 25 was not a secret; Tang Yi had mentioned it in the class group when others asked.
Qiao Sang recalled the mummified appearance of the assessment teacher and nodded:
“It’s quite dangerous.”
Upon hearing this, the classmates gathered around stirred.
“It seems when it’s time for the last outdoor practical lesson, I’ll have to ask my family to prepare a few powerful Yu Beast Masters to accompany me.”
“If you let people protect you for everything, won’t you become useless?”
“You don’t have to let people follow you, but I need to find a few more people. I heard the location for the last outdoor practical lesson has been confirmed as District 27, which is even more dangerous than District 25.”
All the Lower Tenth Districts were dangerous, but if one had to rank them, the common perception was that the further back the district, the more dangerous it was.
District 27… Qiao Sang was startled.
Wasn’t that where Steel Treasure came from?
Just then, the class bell rang.
Qiao Sang instantly forgot about it and immersed herself in her studies.
Tang Yi kept looking at his phone during class, and when class ended, he suddenly patted Qiao Sang’s shoulder.
Qiao Sang turned her head, and he handed her his phone:
“There’s a Pet obstacle course challenge this weekend that tests默契. Want to go together?”
“An obstacle course challenge?” Qiao Sang asked, puzzled.
“It’s an event organized by the TV stations; you can win prizes after completing the course,” Tang Yi explained.
“No interest.” Qiao Sang turned back, then, a second later, turned her head again:
“What, are you interested?”
Tang Yi said, a little embarrassed:
“I’m not really trying to win prizes. I mainly want to see if I can improve my relationship with Poison Water Lion through the challenge.”
Qiao Sang looked at him with considerable confusion:
“Can an obstacle course improve your relationship with a Pet?”
“There aren’t any examples of Pet bond evolution on Super Dormant Star, are there?” Tang Yi said. “But people here haven’t given up on this evolution path, so they’ve organized many activities where they advance together with their Pets, trying to establish a bond.”
Qiao Sang’s eyes showed surprise:
“You shouldn’t need to participate in such activities, right?”
“I just want to try.” Tang Yi scratched his head:
“When in Rome, do as the Romans do, right? Besides, there haven’t been any examples of Poison Water Lion undergoing bond evolution yet. I want to see if I can be the first.”
Qiao Sang was very surprised:
“I didn’t expect you to have such ambitions.”
Tang Yi chuckled twice and said:
“Mainly because there have been several successful examples in the past where people from other planets contracted Super Dormant Star Pets and then achieved bond evolution.”
After speaking, he immediately thought of something and suggested:
“Didn’t you also contract a Little Steel Falcon from Super Dormant Star? Don’t you want to try if it can undergo bond evolution?”
“Bond evolution isn’t that simple.” Qiao Sang was somewhat tempted, but her rationality held her back.
Currently, based on the normal daily Point accumulation, Steel Treasure would likely evolve in about 20 days. Not to mention whether the Little Steel Falcon species even has a bond evolution path, trying to establish a bond that could lead to evolution in such a short time is quite unrealistic.
Especially for a Pet as intelligent as Little Steel Falcon, it would be even more impossible.
…
That being said, the moment Qiao Sang saw Steel Treasure, she couldn’t help but recall the matter.
The scarcity of bond-evolved Pets on Super Dormant Star was due to the long-standing conflict between humans and Pets on this planet.
Even if someone wanted to research bond evolution, it would fail due to impure intentions.
Therefore, the number of Pets that could bond evolve here was very few.
However, the pitifully small number of bond-evolved Pets on Super Dormant Star did not mean that they inherently lacked this evolution path.
Just as Tang Yi said, there have been many instances where people from other planets contracted Super Dormant Star Pets and successfully made them bond evolve.
The most famous example was the international superstar from Blue Star, Pitty Knightley.
It was because she successfully made a Super Dormant Star Pet, which had no prior examples of bond evolution, achieve bond evolution that she first rose to fame.
In the dormitory, Steel Treasure, who was feeding Chan Chan Stone extra spicy chili, felt its Yu Beast Master’s gaze and couldn’t help but look back at its own feathers.
“Steel Steel?”
Could it be that it was already severely bald?
Just as Steel Treasure was falling into confusion, Qiao Sang asked:
“What do you think of me as a person?”
“Steel Steel.”
Steel Treasure was startled at first, then chirped, indicating that she was a good person.
Well, for this evaluation, bond evolution was out of the question. Being a good person was a general, perfunctory positive trait, lacking distinctiveness, meaning it hadn’t left any special memory Points in the Pet’s heart… Qiao Sang quickly abandoned the idea of bond evolution again and buried her head back into solving problems.
“Steel Steel…”
Steel Treasure stopped its wing movements and looked at Qiao Sang thoughtfully.
It always felt that its Yu Beast Master was acting strange today…
“Ya!”
Just then, Ya Bao suddenly bared its fangs and barked, staring out the window.
Qiao Sang was startled, quickly put down her pen, went to the window, and cautiously scanned the outside.
Ya Bao’s current hearing was no joke; if it said there was movement outside, it definitely heard something.
Although this was a school, wild Pets were everywhere on Super Dormant Star. The Upper Tenth District only had stricter management of wild Pets, which didn’t entirely mean there was no danger from them.
“Maybe some wild Pet just passed by,” Qiao Sang said, turning around when she saw nothing outside.
“Ya Ya.”
Ya Bao felt that its Yu Beast Master was so capable that she couldn’t possibly be wrong, so it relaxed and continued eating its Energy Pill.
At the same time.
Outside the window, on the ledge of the fourth floor, a dark, scruffy Pet wiped the crystals forming on its forehead.
Two hours later.
The lights on the fourth floor went out.
Seeing this, the dark, scruffy Pet extended its arms and slowly climbed towards the fifth floor.
When it reached the fifth floor and saw the bright lights, it immediately jolted and quickly climbed back down the way it came.
But after climbing for a while, it felt like it hadn’t been discovered, so it cautiously climbed back up.
This time, the dark, scruffy Pet bravely peeked inside.
It saw that the terrifying Pet was already asleep.
“Chan Chan…”
The dark, scruffy Pet breathed a sigh of relief, then showed a determined expression.
Next, it just had to wait for that human to fall asleep, and then it would carry out its rescue plan!
It waited until dawn.
