Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 740: Dream (A second update for the leader of Leng Huan Zi)

“Oh, hello, Dean Virginia, please come in quickly.” Qiao Sang moved aside.

As she spoke, she suddenly thought of something and called out loudly, “Xiao Xunbao, the teacher is here!”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

The next second, Xiao Xunbao appeared beside Qiao Sang.

Unlike usual, it was now wearing the focusing monocle it used to avoid, a black semi-top hat, holding a black flower in its paw, and draped in… a brown towel.

My face towel… Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched, and she pulled off the towel, maintaining a smile as she said,

“Hurry up and go learn with the teacher.”

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao looked at the towel with great regret.

However, it quickly remembered its Yu Beast Master’s words and the computer, and it used its paw to push up the focusing monocle, showing an expression of “I’m ready”.

With the Dean nearby, Yiwena couldn’t well tease Ghost Ring King about how it felt different from yesterday, so she walked towards the indoor training ground according to her memory from last night.

Xiao Xunbao followed closely.

Dean Virginia did not follow, but instead came to the sofa in the living room and sat down.

“Steel Slash.”

Steel Treasure was prepared, bringing the water it had just poured in the kitchen to the coffee table.

Dean Virginia looked at Steel Treasure, her gaze flickering, and asked, “Is this the evolved form of Steel Guardian Falcon?”

Didn’t she say she was going to see if Yiwena taught well?… Qiao Sang thought to herself as she sat down on the single sofa nearby, and hummed, “It’s called Steel Slash Giant Falcon.”

Dean Virginia picked up the water cup, took a sip, and said, “It seems Yiwena’s interview preparations were not thorough enough, she didn’t report this matter.”

With her experience, it was not difficult to see that the Pet in front of her had not evolved temporarily, but had completely stabilized into a High Level form.

Qiao Sang subconsciously made excuses for Yiwena:

“At that time, everyone was talking about Ice Kexilu evolving into Ice Aipalu, so her focus was there. I didn’t bring it up proactively, so she didn’t know about Steel Guardian Falcon’s evolution.”

“That’s nothing, it just means she still needs more training.” Dean Virginia smiled slightly and changed the subject:

“I haven’t seen any news about Steel Guardian Falcon evolving into Steel Slash Giant Falcon. Does that mean you haven’t gone to the Yu Beast Center to register the information yet?”

Holy crap, I forgot… Qiao Sang exclaimed inwardly, her expression unperturbed: “Indeed, not yet. I’ve been a bit busy these two days, so I should go tomorrow.”

Dean Virginia put down her water cup and suddenly brought up another matter:

“You are an exchange student, only staying at Yu Liandun University for one semester. Do you know how long it took Yiwena to teach someone else’s Pet Space Lockdown last time?”

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and guessed, “Three months?”

“No.” Dean Virginia smiled, “It was eleven months, almost a year. This time is naturally nothing for a Pet that wants to learn Space Lockdown, it’s even fast.”

“With her teaching ability, it’s probably impossible to teach a Pet Space Confinement within one semester.”

Qiao Sang’s expression didn’t change much upon hearing this.

She had considered this possibility earlier.

At that time, she thought that Xiao Xunbao’s learning ability was very strong, and its talent and comprehension were very high. Learning new skills, as long as they weren’t moves outside of its main and sub-attributes, or Ultra-level skills, should not be difficult.

Even if it hadn’t learned it after one semester, the training method would already be very familiar, and then it could just practice according to the method when it returned to Blue Star.

At this point, Dean Virginia continued:

“But I can help you.”

Qiao Sang’s expression froze: “Help me with what?”

“Help your Ghost Ring King train Space Lockdown.” Dean Virginia smiled kindly.

Qiao Sang was silent for more than ten seconds, then asked, “Do I have some talent for journalism?”

Dean Virginia was stunned for a moment, then smiled, “Why would you think that?”

Qiao Sang: “…”

“I just happen to have a Pet that knows Space Lockdown, and I also know how to train it.” Dean Virginia said, “For those of us in journalism, we highly value news. To prevent interview content from leaking, we usually have our Pets learn some skills to lock down the scene, just like Space Lockdown.”

“So, I know very well how to effectively learn Space Lockdown.”

Only Superpower System Pets can learn Space Lockdown, so does that mean most students studying journalism have to form a contract with a Superpower System Pet? Is it that luxurious? Qiao Sang was a bit dazed.

However, on second thought, for students in the journalism departments of other universities, raising a Superpower System Pet might be considered a luxury, but for students who can attend Yu Liandun University, it should just be a matter of choice.

After all, most of those who can attend Top Universities ranked in the top three in the Interstellar Cup have received elite education since childhood, so their family backgrounds couldn’t be bad.

“Why help me?” Qiao Sang asked.

Dean Virginia stated directly, “I read your interview, and you said you want to participate in the Interstellar Cup. I think it’s very possible, and I’d like to have the opportunity to provide me with some relevant news when you participate in the Interstellar Cup in the future.”

Compared to the deans of other academies, Dean Virginia was very aware of her own academy’s weaknesses.

A prodigy aiming for the Interstellar Cup would never abandon the Pet Tamer Academy and switch to the News Academy, no matter what.

Instead of wasting time on something impossible, it was better to do a favor now, while the other party hadn’t fully grown, and strive for future cooperation opportunities.

This is the first time someone has said that they think I have a high chance of participating in the Interstellar Cup… Qiao Sang felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing this, even a hint of emotion.

“Are you so sure I can definitely participate?” Qiao Sang asked.

Dean Virginia didn’t hesitate: “I’m sure.”

“Let’s exchange contact information. When you see me participating in the Interstellar Cup, just contact me.” Qiao Sang said, pulling out her phone.

Dean Virginia was startled at first, then pulled out her phone: “Okay.”

She hadn’t expected Qiao Sang to be so agreeable…

“In the future, if you want to know anything about Super Dormant Star, you can also contact me. Other things aside, my intelligence is definitely first-rate.” Dean Virginia finished adding contact information, put away her phone, and smiled.

Just for that sentence, it’s worth it even if you don’t teach Xiao Xunbao Space Lockdown… Qiao Sang thought to herself.

That evening, Dean Virginia entered the indoor training ground and taught Xiao Xunbao for a bit, checking its learning progress.

Ten o’clock sharp.

At the entrance.

Dean Virginia, having put on her shoes, said, “I’ll come again tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Qiao Sang nodded.

Huh? Yiwena hadn’t even reacted before Dean Virginia led her out the door.

Twelve o’clock at night.

Bedroom.

Qiao Sang lay on the bed with her eyes closed.

In the dream.

Qiao Sang stood awake in a suburban area.

Large expanses of green plants on both sides, a sky as clear as if washed, and leisurely white clouds, the scenery was as beautiful as a fairy tale.

Suddenly, a golden light lit up in the sky.

At the same time, a ethereal and majestic voice came from above:

“Is there anything in particular you want?”

Qiao Sang thought seriously for a moment and said, “I want to participate in the Interstellar Cup.”

The majestic voice in the sky was silent for a moment, then added, “I said ‘thing’.”

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, “The Interstellar Cup championship trophy.”

Majestic voice: “.”

The clouds in the sky seemed to pause at this moment.

After a few seconds, the majestic voice sounded again: “I’ll grant you one wish, what do you want besides anything related to the Interstellar Cup?” (End of chapter)
