Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 623: Looks have changed a lot

“What is a dream enlightenment stone?” the director suddenly asked.

Qiao Sang’s first reaction was surprise; she hadn’t expected this director not to even know what a dream enlightenment stone was.

Her second reaction was understanding; she had learned about dream enlightenment stones, and they were something not available on the market. The director probably had no way of knowing, just like she hadn’t known what Weil Elixir was at first.

After figuring it out, Qiao Sang coughed and said,

“It’s something that allows a Pet to dream of the most suitable evolution form for its next stage while sleeping.”

After speaking, Qiao Sang felt inexplicably refreshed.

To be honest, ever since she came to Super Dormant Star, she knew nothing about anything, and being surrounded by a group of high-achieving classmates who understood everything had given her a profound understanding of her identity as a ‘study-scum’.

This was the first time since she came to Super Dormant Star that she had genuinely answered someone’s question about a Pet item.

It felt quite good.

“There’s actually such a miraculous item,” Sylvia exclaimed.

At this moment, Xiao Xunbao took the dream enlightenment stone out of the box.

Seeing the obviously valuable crystal before them, the director and Sylvia once again realized that the young girl’s identity was truly extraordinary.

“You actually have a friend like this?” The director looked at Sylvia, expressing his confusion with his eyes.

“I don’t know either…” Sylvia replied with a bewildered look.

As the two exchanged glances, Qiao Sang took the dream enlightenment stone and nodded at Xiao Xunbao.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao chirped, floated in front of Ya!, and then its eyes glowed purple.

Ya! did not dodge, did not resist, and simply allowed Xiao Xunbao to hypnotize it.

In the backpack, Lu Bao quietly poked its head out, then jumped onto her Yu Beast Master’s shoulder, watching the scene unfold.

The director and Sylvia were momentarily stunned when they saw this.

They hadn’t expected there to be a Pet in the backpack…

“This Pet would also look good on camera…” The director’s eyes lit up, and this thought instinctively arose.

“Ya! Ya!…”

Ya! was overcome with drowsiness, its eyelids growing heavier and heavier, and it soon completely fell asleep.

“Director.” Qiao Sang looked over.

“Understood.” The director nodded and formed a hand seal.

A green star array lit up.

A Pet with light blue eyes and purple eyelids, and a light blue fin-like mark at the outer corner of each eye, appeared within the star array.

“Dreamlas, Dream Projection,” the director said.

“Dreamlas.”

Dreamlas glanced and knew who needed this skill. It nodded, then its eyes glowed blue as it looked at the sleeping Ya!.

The way this Dream Projection was cast seemed different from the task giver’s Pet earlier… Qiao Sang’s thoughts diverged for a moment but quickly returned to Ya!.

A transparent bubble with an image slowly rose from Ya!’s head.

Then it grew larger and larger, stopping its expansion when it reached a diameter of nearly one meter.

Qiao Sang looked at the bubble.

In the dream, Ya! was no longer in its miniature form, shrunk by the tiny shrinking bracelet, but had returned to its original size.

It was leisurely strolling, and a golden-haired man whose face was not visible was watching it.

Suddenly, Ya! turned its head, gave the man a casual glance, and then left.

“It’s not dreaming of itself fighting on the competition grounds…” Qiao Sang couldn’t help but inwardly complain as she watched Ya!’s dream.

She stepped forward and crouched down, intending to use the dream enlightenment stone on Ya!.

The dream enlightenment stone was not to be used before falling asleep, but after falling asleep. The box containing the dream enlightenment stone had instructions clearly stating this.

The moment Qiao Sang crouched down, the scene on the bubble suddenly changed.

Like a TV suddenly changing channels, Qiao Sang subconsciously looked up.

She saw Ya! facing off against another Pet from a distance, and in the background, there was also a golden-haired man whose face was not visible.

Because the scene was so familiar, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but take a second look.

Just then, Ya! opened its mouth, and a rotating flame unexpectedly struck the Pet opposite it.

That Pet was instantly defeated and fell down.

“Oh! My goodness!” The man whose face was not visible exclaimed, “You are simply too handsome! Too strong! I’ve been looking for you for so long! Contract with me!”

“Ya!”

Ya! let out a disdainful cry, then teleported in front of the man and swatted him with a paw.

‘You’re not worthy!’

The man was sent Flying dozens of meters away.

Only then did the man’s face become clear.

Golden hair, blue eyes, an aquiline nose, and thin lips—it was precisely the male lead who had acted with Xiao Xunbao not long ago.

Qiao Sang: “…”

‘No wonder the scene looked so familiar. The Pet and background in this dream are exactly the same as when Xiao Xunbao was acting…’

The director and Sylvia, who also understood what was going on, fell silent.

Only Xiao Xunbao’s eyes glowed as it watched the dream.

After about a few seconds, Qiao Sang, in the midst of the silence, placed the dream enlightenment stone in her hand onto Ya!’s body.

The purplish-red dream enlightenment stone emitted a purplish-red glow the moment it touched Ya!.

Within the light, the dream enlightenment stone slowly sank and merged into Ya!’s body.

Once the dream enlightenment stone completely disappeared, the scene on the bubble changed, and the dream transformed once again.

Qiao Sang looked intently at the dream being simultaneously displayed on the bubble.

The background in the image was a volcano, and the scorching air, even in a dream, could be clearly felt.

Lava erupted, and the area around the crater was covered by scorching magma and rocks, forming a sea of fire.

In the high sky above the sea of fire, Ya!’s body glowed with the light of evolution.

After the light dissipated, a Pet appeared in the dream displayed on the bubble. Due to the lack of reference, its specific size was unknown, but its body was predominantly red, its face resembled a red wolf, it had blue pupils and jet-black sclera, its super long fluffy tail had some white patterns, and it had flame-like flickering wings on both sides of its body, with long and sharp silver claws.

Looking at the extraordinary Pet in the image, the office once again fell silent.

At this moment, the director took a deep breath and hesitated, saying,

“Why do I feel like your Pet looks a bit like a Dragon-type Pet after evolving?”

Qiao Sang paused, then agreed, “It does look a bit like one.”

After evolving, Ya!’s previously inconspicuous flame wings became enormous, fully capable of supporting Flying, and the changes in its claws were also very obvious. From its appearance, it looked somewhat like a combination of a canine Pet and a Western Dragon.

‘Ya!’s appearance changed so much after evolving… Most of its white fur disappeared. It seems Ya! should be more Fire-type after evolving… The background in this dream is a volcano, could it be a hint that it needs to evolve in a high-temperature environment…’ Qiao Sang fell into deep thought for a moment.

“Ice Ke.”

Lu Bao stared at the figure displayed on the bubble with deep eyes for a while, then turned its head and jumped back into the backpack.

Just then, Qiao Sang suddenly thought of something, pulled out her phone, opened the camera function, and took a picture of Ya!’s evolved form on the bubble. (End of this chapter)
