Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 68: Fearless Optical Store

Moments later, deafening cheers erupted from the audience.

“How did we win?!”

“Fire Fang Dog, I love you!”

“Ah ah ah ah ah!”

“Qiao Sang, give me your Fire Fang Dog!”

“Qiao Sang, you’re so cool!”

“A huge upset! The Controlled Puppet is down! The final contestant to enter the finals is Qiao Sang!” The Commentator excitedly said, “This is absolutely the most exciting match of the Bai Xin Competition! At the last moment, Fire Fang Dog actually activated its Fierce Fire! It’s a pity the Controlled Puppet fell too quickly! We didn’t get to see Fire Fang Dog in its Raging Flames state!”

Hou Xiangyu: “…”

Did he not consider that he could hear them too!

Qiao Sang stared blankly at the Fire Fang Dog on the field, covered in injuries but with an even stronger aura than before.

As if sensing its Yu Beast Master’s gaze, Fire Fang Dog turned its head, its fierce eyes instantly softening into two crescent moons as they met hers.

Then the flames on its body dissipated, its eyes closed, and it collapsed.

“Fire Fang Dog!” Qiao Sang snapped back to reality and quickly ran over to pick it up.

Pet Arena.

Infirmary.

A Pet, entirely green with two antennae on its head that ended in spherical tips, clenched its claws into fists, holding back a surge of power.

The spherical tips of its antennae glowed green.

From this light, a shimmering green powder scattered and landed on the lying Fire Fang Dog.

Two minutes later, Fire Fang Dog opened its moist eyes.

“Fire Fang Dog is fine, it just activated its Fierce Fire, so it’s better for it to rest a bit more. Don’t do any pre-match warm-ups or anything like that,” the female Pet doctor said after examining it.

“Ya!”

Fire Fang Dog looked in the direction the female doctor was speaking and immediately jumped over happily.

Qiao Sang opened her arms to catch it, then said gratefully, “Thank you, Doctor, I understand.”

“This is my job. I also watched that match just now; it was very exciting. You must do your best in the finals too,” the female doctor said.

“We will,” Qiao Sang said with a smile.

“Ya!”

Fire Fang Dog also let out a loud bark in agreement.

Only after seeing that Fire Fang Dog was fine did Qiao Sang have the presence of mind to recall the final moments of the match.

Raging Flames, a characteristic.

Every Pet possesses corresponding characteristics.

Most characteristics are beneficial to the Pet itself, but a small number are either detrimental or completely useless.

For example, Moon Rush Grass.

It falls asleep whenever it encounters rain.

If one encounters it during a match, one only needs to send out a Pet with the Rain Prayer skill, and the match can be won without a fight.

Like the Eight-Tube Coral encountered some time ago.

Its characteristic is to adjust the nanocrystals on its skin surface upon contact with an object to achieve an invisibility effect, but this belongs to a supportive type of characteristic.

As for Fire Fang Dog’s Fierce Fire, which boosts its attack power, it is absolutely beneficial to itself.

It only needs to be injured to a certain extent, with severe physical exhaustion, to trigger Fierce Fire.

Then, like it’s on drugs, the power of its fire-type skills and attack speed can increase several times over.

It is absolutely a characteristic that all fire-type Pets wish to possess.

However, this characteristic cannot be triggered every time.

For example, Moon Rush Grass falling asleep when it rains is a compulsory characteristic, while Fire Fang Dog’s Fierce Fire needs to be skillfully mastered to be activated.

Generally speaking, fire-type Pets that can百分之百 trigger Fierce Fire and have mastered it are formidable characters.

Because it has to be injured to a very serious extent to attempt to practice activating it.

Although Fire Fang Dog possesses the Fierce Fire characteristic.

Qiao Sang felt that letting it master it skillfully should be done gradually.

There are still nearly 50 minutes until the finals.

Qiao Sang carried Fire Fang Dog, preparing to head to the audience stands to watch the Pet performance.

On the way from the infirmary to the audience access corridor, Fire Fang Dog saw a glass panel where it could see its reflection and paused, then jumped out of Qiao Sang’s arms.

It came before the glass, looked at itself, and then became anxious.

“Ya?”

“Yaya!”

“Ya!”

Where were its sunglasses!

Qiao Sang pulled out a damaged red triangular pair of sunglasses from her bag and held them in front of it, saying mournfully, “The match just now was too intense, they broke.”

Fire Fang Dog stood frozen in place, as if struck by a bolt from the blue, then took the damaged sunglasses with its paw and let out a mournful cry: “Ya!!!”

This sound was even more tragic than when it was controlled by the Controlled Puppet’s psychic power and fell from mid-air.

“Out with the old, in with the new. I’ll buy you several more pairs tonight, pick whatever you like,” Qiao Sang comforted it.

Fire Fang Dog immediately stopped, nodded with tears in its eyes.

Just then, a voice came from not far away: “I happen to have a pair of sunglasses with me, I can give them to Fire Fang Dog.”

Qiao Sang turned her head.

She saw a woman around 25 or 26 years old, with long black hair and delicate features that looked harmless, walking towards her.

“Hello, my name is Song Yuan.”

“Hello,” Qiao Sang said politely.

“I called you yesterday, but you seemed to have mistaken it for a spam call and hung up on me,” Song Yuan said with a smile, not feeling embarrassed at all.

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, “Was it the one with the last four digits 1772, which called several times and I eventually blacklisted?”

Song Yuan: “…”

“That was me.”

“I’m sorry, I thought it was some kind of scam call,” Qiao Sang said apologetically.

“It’s fine, being vigilant is good. If it were me, I wouldn’t just answer calls from strangers either. I’m looking for you because…” Song Yuan’s words were interrupted by a phone ringing.

“Excuse me, I need to take this call first.”

“It’s fine,” Qiao Sang said.

She was sharp-eyed and immediately noticed that the phone number on Song Yuan’s screen was not saved as a contact.

“Hello, who is this?” Song Yuan answered the phone.

Qiao Sang: “…”

A minute later.

“Sorry, let’s continue. Where were we?” Song Yuan asked after hanging up the phone.

“You said you wouldn’t just answer calls from strangers,” Qiao Sang replied.

Song Yuan’s face showed embarrassment, and she cleared her throat, explaining, “Those of us who do small businesses have to be like this; we have to answer every call, otherwise we might miss an important one.”

Qiao Sang nodded, indicating understanding.

“I’m looking for you because I want to invite Fire Fang Dog to endorse the sunglasses in my online store,” Song Yuan stated her intention: “The look of Fire Fang Dog wearing sunglasses is exactly what I want. Money is not an issue. If you’re willing, let’s exchange contact information, and after the finals, we can find a place to have a good chat.”

Originally, she just wanted Fire Fang Dog to do a live stream once.

But Qiao Sang and Fire Fang Dog’s performance today made her believe that this was definitely a stock with potential.

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment, then asked, “I’d like to ask what the name of your online store is?”

Song Yuan quickly replied, “Fearless Eyewear.”

Qiao Sang took out her phone and searched.

There was indeed such a store.

The legal person’s name matched.

The phone number matched the one she blacklisted yesterday.

Looks like it’s not a scammer…

“Okay, then we’ll discuss it in detail after the finals,” Qiao Sang put down her phone and showed a big smile.

“Alright, alright! I just walked over and heard what you said to Fire Fang Dog. I happen to have a pair of our store’s sunglasses with me. If it’s possible, could Fire Fang Dog please wear them during the finals?” Song Yuan happily took out a pair of sunglasses from her bag and handed them over.

Qiao Sang looked at the sunglasses and fell silent.

Fire Fang Dog looked at them, then shook its head like a rattle drum.

It had taste too, okay!
