Chapter 704: Zero Lingling

Bond Evolution, not enough energy… In an instant, Qiao Sang understood why Steel Treasure had devolved into a Steel Guardian Falcon.

It was Bond Evolution again…

Qiao Sang was surprised but also very moved.

She thought Steel Treasure’s evolution was stimulated by the dangerous situation, but she never expected the root cause to be her…

“Steel Guard…”

Steel Treasure swayed, looking somewhat exhausted.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang quickly dismounted.

When Xiao Xunbao saw Steel Treasure’s condition, her eyes flashed with surprise, then she immediately cast Healing Light without a word.

Blue light shone on Steel Treasure’s body.

I need to summon Ya back quickly… Qiao Sang saw the Healing Light on Steel Treasure, felt relieved, and then remembered Ya. She was about to wave her hand.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

But just as her hand lifted, she caught a glimpse of Xiao Xunbao looking upwards, her mouth widening and her expression becoming increasingly exaggerated.

What did she see? Qiao Sang looked up, and then froze on the spot.

She stared blankly at the scene in the sky, which looked like a special effect, her eyes wide.

The sky full of flames seemed to have been paused, frozen in mid-air, like a magnificent painting.

The surrounding temperature plummeted at this moment.

Frost descended, and cold currents, as if from an extremely cold land, raged from below towards the sky. Wherever they passed, all the fiery rain was covered in white frost and encased in ice.

Immediately after, the ice-encased fiery rain shattered into pieces, dispersing into light particles that fell downwards, exceptionally beautiful.

All the people who were originally fleeing also stopped, looking up in a daze at this scene.

This… Everyone’s mind went blank.

Including Qiao Sang.

Mars Rain, a Profound Level Mars Rain cast by a General-level Pet, was dissolved just like that?

So, so awesome…

At this moment, an old voice seemed to transmit through a loudspeaker into everyone’s ears:

“Beast Taming Department, assessment over.”

At the same time, a virtual panel appeared in front of all the new students in the Beast Taming Department:

【End Countdown: 0:00:00】

Qiao Sang was jolted awake and looked down in the direction of the voice.

She saw that the speaker was an old man with semi-white hair, a face full of wrinkles, but a very rosy complexion.

Beside him floated a Pet about 80 centimeters tall, its entire body covered in ice, emitting a faint blue glow, with some white markings on its head and a blue ice pillar for its lower body.

Gilbert Heren, the Dean of the Pet Tamer Academy… With just one glance, Qiao Sang recognized him as the big shot who had lived to be 483 years old.

“Ya!”

High in the sky, Ya stared intently at the Pet with the blue ice pillar for its lower body on the ground, baring its fangs and letting out an angry roar.

This cry instantly caught Qiao Sang’s attention. She looked up, saw Ya about to launch an attack the next second, and was startled, quickly shouting:

“Ya!”

Ya heard the familiar voice, first froze, then looked down and saw her Yu Beast Master.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, and the next second, she disappeared from the sky.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya teleported to Qiao Sang’s side, lowered her head, and rubbed hard with her head.

“Ya ya…”

As she rubbed, she stopped, took a step back, and showed a wronged expression.

She was scared to death just now…

I was about to be scared to death by you… Qiao Sang comforted her: “I’m fine.”

…

On the ground, Gilbert glanced in the direction of the black-haired girl on the rooftop, then withdrew his gaze and walked away.

“Zero.” The Pet with the blue ice pillar for its lower body quickly followed.

At this moment, everyone seemed to awaken and began to discuss excitedly.

“I almost thought I was done for just now!”

“Oh my god, Dean Gilbert Heren is simply too cool!”

“That must be Zero Ling Ling, right?”

“This is my first time seeing an Emperor-level Pet up close!”

“I feel like even an Emperor-level Pet, once its size becomes smaller, it doesn’t seem so terrifying anymore.”

“Yes…” The speaker unconsciously shifted his gaze to the red, magnificent-furred Pet on the rooftop.

Flame Qilu had already returned to its initial size, without any of the terrifying Pressure it had just moments ago.

The eyes of most people subtly turned towards the figure on the rooftop, but they no longer mentioned the matter of teaching her a lesson, as if nothing had happened.

…

Qiao Sang returned the recovered Steel Treasure and Xiao Xunbao to her yu beast codex.

Steel Treasure’s next stage of evolution and evolution path are now clear; all that’s missing is energy.

She could directly add Points to Steel Treasure to make her evolve, but since Steel Treasure’s Iron Wall hasn’t reached the Profound Level yet, there’s no rush.

Xiao Xunbao’s previous Ice Flower Seal and series of attacks collected a lot of Points, saving several months of time.

The gains from this assessment were truly abundant.

Qiao Sang carried Ya and came to Class 1 of the Beast Taming Department.

Many people were already seated inside.

Qiao Sang casually found an empty seat and sat down.

The girl sitting next to her stiffened, silently got up, and changed seats.

It’s not that bad, isn’t the assessment over?… Qiao Sang glanced at the departing figure.

“Oh my goodness, I’m actually in the same class as her…”

“That Flame Qilu looks so well-behaved now…”

“She just looked at me, did she recognize that I’m the Yu Beast Master of Sand Earth King…?”

Which one is Sand Earth King?… Qiao Sang pricked up her ears, listening to others’ conversations, her expression unchanged.

At this moment, a woman who looked about forty years old, with a round, fair face, appeared out of thin air at the podium.

“Quiet.” The woman’s gaze swept over everyone, and she said calmly.

No one was particularly surprised by the sudden appearance of a Teacher, and they obediently quieted down.

“My name is Klaudia, and I will be the homeroom Teacher for Beast Taming Class 1.”

After speaking, her calm gaze suddenly sharpened: “During this assessment, all of us Beast Taming Department Teachers monitored and watched, and I am very dissatisfied with your performance.”

Upon hearing this, the students immediately focused their gaze on the black-haired girl in the back row.

This was an instinctive gaze, after all, this person was the culprit who caused everyone to have very few Points.

“Ya!”

Ya felt everyone’s gaze, immediately remembered the previous collective attack, and instantly bared her fangs, showing a fierce expression.

Everyone recalled Flame Qilu’s previous combat power, felt a chill, and quickly shifted their gaze back.

Qiao Sang quickly stroked her fur.

“Ya…”

Ya gradually calmed down, showing a comfortable expression.

Klaudia’s gaze fell on Qiao Sang, her eyes showing appreciation, then she said:

“However, one student’s performance exceeded my expectations, and that is Qiao Sang.”

Being praised by a Teacher on the first day of school, she hadn’t felt this way in a long time… Qiao Sang silently straightened her back.

Upon hearing this, everyone started whispering again:

“So her name is Qiao Sang.”

“How come I feel like I’ve seen that name somewhere?”

At this moment, someone exclaimed: “She’s the one who moved into the special zone on the first day of school!”

Qiao Sang: “???”

PS: Thanks to the alliance leader of Immortal Zhai Qitian! Yesterday I came back feeling unwell and went straight to bed. When I woke up, it was almost 10 PM, and I felt it was too late to write a leave request, so I’m making it up to everyone today.
