Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 708: Dr. Doralissa
The Comprehensive Building.
Seventeenth-floor lecture hall.
Qiao Sang finished deducting points and put down her phone.
She had obtained 383 points in the morning assessment, plus the initial 100 points, for a total of 483 points. Losing 5 points didn’t feel too bad.
Doctor Dorarisa scanned the students in the lecture hall and said with a kind smile:
“Now, place all your student IDs on the table in front of you.”
Most people had already placed their student IDs on the table, while a small number of students were just taking them out now.
Student IDs were given out during registration, and Qiao Sang had put hers in her everyday backpack, so it wasn’t troublesome to find.
Although she didn’t know why this item was needed, she still obediently took it out.
Seeing that everyone had taken out their student IDs, Doctor Dorarisa lowered her head and operated on the virtual panel on the desk.
The next second, a ten-inch green-background virtual screen appeared above each student ID, displaying their respective information.
“Very good.” Doctor Dorarisa scanned the room, then lowered her head, pressed a spot on the virtual panel, and said:
“Let’s begin class now.”
After she finished speaking, the green virtual screens above all the student IDs disappeared.
That’s it? No roll call? Qiao Sang couldn’t help but feel curious. She turned her head and quietly asked the girl next to her, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses:
“Doesn’t the teacher need to call roll?”
The girl with black-rimmed glasses had heard Qiao Sang and the two boys in the back row talking earlier, so she knew Qiao Sang was a new student and wasn’t surprised by her question.
She patiently explained:
“No need for roll call. For classes like Doctor Dorarisa’s, you basically need points to attend. If your student ID shows a green background screen, it means you’ve already paid the points. If it shows a red background, you’ll be asked to leave.”
Good thing, good thing I acted fast and paid the points at the last minute… Qiao Sang felt incredibly fortunate.
Doctor Dorarisa’s voice was gentle:
“I believe everyone knows the importance of emotional energy to Pets.”
“We have conducted many experiments on emotional energy and found that as long as emotional energy reaches a certain amount, it can be transformed into skills, can increase attack, and even some Pets can evolve by relying on emotional energy.”
She’s talking about Lu Bao… Qiao Sang silently completed the sentence in her mind.
Doctor Dorarisa continued: “Last year, Doctor Larry Ford conducted an extraction experiment on the happy energy of the Smiling Camel and found that after the Smiling Camel’s happy energy weakened, its body also became very weak, and its strength greatly decreased.”
“For Pets with particularly extreme personalities in a certain aspect, they rely on emotional energy to increase their strength.”
At this point, she paused and asked:
“I wonder if anyone here has a Pet with a particularly extreme personality? You can summon it to me, and I’ll demonstrate.”
Particularly extreme? Qiao Sang had a filter for her own Pets and thought their personalities were all quite good.
Even if Lu Bao seemed a bit tsundere, she was actually very easy to talk to and believed everything said to her.
As she was thinking, the girl next to her with black-rimmed glasses raised her hand and said:
“Me!”
After speaking, she formed a hand seal.
A green star array lit up.
A Pet with a spherical body, white fur all over, a yellow nose, drooping eyebrows, and deep gray floating hair appeared within the star array.
It looked left and right at the humans watching it, its eyes sharp, with an expression like “Why are you looking at me? Want to fight?”
“Violent Hairball.” Doctor Dorarisa looked at the summoned Pet and smiled, “Have it come up.”
“Big Gentle, go up there.” The girl with glasses said.
Is this calling something what it lacks…? Qiao Sang muttered to herself from the side.
“Baobao.”
The Violent Hairball’s eyes were still sharp, but its movements to go up were not slow at all.
Once it stood on the stage, Doctor Dorarisa placed the energy testing device, which she had already prepared, on its head.
The data on the display screen on its forehead flickered and jumped, and after a moment, it settled on the number 39008.
Doctor Dorarisa glanced at the data and said:
“This Violent Hairball currently has an energy value of 39008.”
As she spoke, she suddenly slapped the Violent Hairball’s head hard.
“Baobao!”
The Violent Hairball suddenly turned its head and glared at her.
At the same time, the data on the display screen on its forehead flickered and changed to 39377.
The energy increased with one slap? Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up.
The students in the lecture hall seemed to be quite knowledgeable about emotional energy; they just watched intently, without much reaction.
Doctor Dorarisa ignored the Violent Hairball’s glare and began to explain:
“The Violent Hairball usually relies on angry emotional energy. For this species, the angrier it gets, the more energy it will have in its body.”
“Of course, the angry energy obtained by provoking it like I just did is only temporary. In a few minutes, it will return to its original energy value.”
“Although the time is short, in this situation, the Violent Hairball can easily learn skills like Angry Fangs, Displacement, and Frenzy.”
“Alright, take it back.” Doctor Dorarisa said.
The girl with black-rimmed glasses waved her hand, and the Violent Hairball disappeared from its spot.
Qiao Sang noticed that Doctor Dorarisa didn’t use many professional terms; she mostly spoke in more common language, which was completely understandable for a “poor student” like her.
As class was nearing its end, Doctor Dorarisa looked around and asked:
“Do you have any questions you’d like to ask?”
Qiao Sang immediately raised her hand.
Dorarisa had long noticed this young woman with a Dragon Country face. It wasn’t that she looked younger than others, but rather that she didn’t recognize the red Pet she was holding at all.
She had once seriously researched and understood almost all Pets, not only on her own planet but also on other planets.
Such a phenomenon of not recognizing a Pet had not happened to her for a very long time.
“You speak.” Dorarisa smiled and gestured.
Qiao Sang organized her words and asked: “I have a Pet that needs to evolve in the next stage by relying on despair emotional energy. I want to ask, for Pets that need to evolve by relying on emotional energy, must they stick to a specific type of emotional energy? Can other emotional energies be used as a substitute?”
Evolve by relying on despair emotional energy? Dorarisa’s mind flashed through the few Pets that needed to evolve by relying on this type of emotional energy, and she said with a normal expression:
“Each type of emotional energy actually produces different energy and effects; they are just collectively called emotional energy. If your Pet has been researched and shown to rely on despair emotional energy to evolve, then other emotional energies cannot substitute it.”
Qiao Sang felt disappointed, but also felt it was reasonable.
After all, if other emotional energies could substitute despair emotional energy, then the Water Luyana species wouldn’t be so difficult to evolve.
Seeing the black-haired girl fall silent, Dorarisa glanced at the red Pet she still hadn’t recognized and asked with a smile:
“What is the name of your Pet that needs despair emotional energy to evolve?”
“Ice Kexilu.” Qiao Sang said.
Ice Kexilu? Dorarisa pondered for a moment, then thought of something and her eyes suddenly widened.
Ice Kexilu?!
The Ice Kexilu, whose entire evolution chain requires emotional energy and is on the verge of extinction on Blue Star?! (End of chapter)
