Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 762: Opponent, krypton gold boss (two-in-one)
It’s completely recovered?
In the audience.
Some people looked at each other with confused expressions, while others were still immersed in the savagery of Ice Aipalu.
“I thought the match would be over after the Evil Water Toad was sealed by the Ice Flower Seal, but I didn’t expect Ice Aipalu to follow up with so many Mega Ice Cone attacks…”
“That’s called caution.”
“This Ice Aipalu is a bit fierce. In this year’s Beastmaster Star Tournament, I’m afraid only Apollo Novicki can put up a fight against Qiao Sang.”
“You must be crazy. How can he fight? Have you forgotten that Ice Aipalu has the Ultra-level skill Ice Heaven Domain?”
“Uh, my point is that Ice Aipalu’s Ice Heaven Domain can only be used once at most to win one match. Apollo might be able to turn the tide.”
“I think it’s a bit uncertain. Qiao Sang’s other two General-level Pets don’t seem easy to deal with.”
“By the way, what is this Healing-type skill of Ice Aipalu? The Healing effect seems to be very good.”
“Not sure, it should be a talent skill.” The person who said this saved the recorded match video, edited it, and only kept the scene where Ice Aipalu radiated blue light, then dissipated, and fully recovered, sending it online with the text:
[Does anyone know what this Healing-type skill is?]
…
Half an hour later.
On the way back.
“I didn’t expect your Ice Aipalu to have already trained the Ice Flower Seal to the Profound Level,” Pilit said, trying to maintain a calm tone.
To be honest, he had seen many geniuses, including some monstrous ones, but it was his first time seeing someone like Qiao Sang, who was even more monstrous than a monster.
Setting aside how old she was, her brain domain, and how many General-level Pets she had cultivated, and even teaching her General-level Pets Ultra-level skills, just the fact that she trained a high-level skill to the Profound Level in one year was too fantastical.
“It has been training this skill almost constantly for a very long time,” Qiao Sang said.
Very long? How long? You’ve only been a Yu Beast Master for a year! Pilit almost wanted to roar, but he still managed to control his emotions.
Because he understood that the young girl in front of him could not be explained by common sense; otherwise, it would be impossible for her to be arranged into the Di Class at the age of 16.
“Do you have any questions about today’s two matches?” Pilit remembered his duty.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and asked:
“Tao Jun is a Spirit Mark Master. Logically speaking, both of her Pets should have Spiritual Marks, but I didn’t see any on the Evil Water Toad. Did she not draw one?”
When fighting the Evil Water Toad, she originally wanted to destroy the Spiritual Mark first, but unfortunately, she couldn’t see it at all.
“The Evil Water Toad’s Spiritual Mark was drawn on its tongue,” Pilit said.
He had received multiple feedbacks, and his eyesight was extraordinary. When the Evil Water Toad opened its mouth to unleash Poison Mist, he saw the abnormality inside its tongue.
So it was drawn on the tongue… Even if I found it, it would be hard to destroy. It’s not like I can cut off the Pet’s tongue… Tsk, that’s a good spot to draw a Spiritual Mark… Qiao Sang asked again:
“Then what is the purpose of this Spiritual Mark?”
Pilit pondered for a few seconds and said:
“If I’m not mistaken, this should be to make the saliva in its tongue secrete automatically…”
He paused here and added:
“But there’s a prerequisite: this Spiritual Mark will only work when the Pet’s condition has a problem.”
Saying this, Pilit turned his head and stared at Qiao Sang:
“The Evil Water Toad’s saliva is highly poisonous. Even if it’s frozen, it can corrode the Ice Flower Seal with its saliva. Your Ice Aipalu’s last few Mega Ice Cone attacks were very well-timed, preventing this from happening.”
Huh? What? There’s such a thing… Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment.
No wonder Lu Bao used so many Mega Ice Cone attacks later; she thought Lu Bao just wanted to try out more new offensive skills…
Now it seems Lu Bao must have realized something was wrong…
Could it have seen the Evil Water Toad’s saliva flowing and the Ice Flower Seal being corroded?
It doesn’t seem impossible…
Lu Bao used blue dew crystal before, and its eyesight has always been good, and it can see the correct trajectory no matter how fast the speed…
But there was still a bit of purple mist at that time. Isn’t it a bit too exaggerated for Lu Bao to see this from such a distance…
Just as she was thinking, she heard Teacher Pilit’s voice:
“Ice Aipalu performed Healing Light under the live broadcast of the entire network. For a while, many people will probably look for you. Don’t casually agree to help others with Healing. If you must heal, contact me, and I’ll go with you.”
Qiao Sang was stunned when she heard this: “Why? I’ve still been helping people with Healing every night recently.”
Pilit said in a deep voice:
“The people you are helping with Healing now are all introduced by the dean of Yu Liandun University’s Medical College. With her as an intermediary, there is sufficient safety assurance. But if you privately agree to go to unfamiliar places with others, then it’s hard to say what might happen.”
“This is an Ultra-level skill that can cure terminal illnesses. To cure terminal illnesses, many people will do anything,” Pilit said seriously.
Qiao Sang nodded: “I understand.”
Indeed, if it’s a terminal illness, what wouldn’t they dare to do?
…
The next day.
12:00 PM.
Yu Liandun University.
Qiao Sang, holding Ya Bao, waited under a landmark building on campus according to the message Lamal Skry sent her.
Passing students frequently turned their heads, with an extremely high回头率 (return rate, meaning head-turning rate).
Qiao Sang’s expression remained unchanged; she was already able to calmly face these gazes.
Suddenly, a girl with long chestnut hair, slightly curled at the ends, looking around 20 years old, ran over with an excited expression.
“Sorry, the teacher kept me after class to ask some questions,” the girl said, her hands on her knees, slightly out of breath, explaining.
“Lamal Skry?” Qiao Sang confirmed.
“That’s me.” Lamal straightened up, revealing a bright smile.
As she spoke, she looked at Ya Bao: “This must be Flame Qilu.”
Seeing someone recognize it, Ya Bao naturally spread out its paws.
“Xiao Xunbao~”
The next second, Xiao Xunbao appeared, took off its ring, rummaged inside with its paw, and quickly took out dark green triangular sunglasses, placing them on Ya Bao’s outstretched paw like a subordinate.
Then, it vanished.
“Ya.”
Ya Bao put on its sunglasses, showed a cool expression, and let out a cry, indicating it was him.
Qiao Sang: “…”
Lamal’s eyes lit up at the sight, and she praised:
“Your Flame Qilu is simply too suitable for wearing sunglasses!”
I almost forgot you’re a student of the Coordination Department… Qiao Sang complained inwardly, then got straight to the point:
“Do you have a Pet that knows Peaceful Wave?”
“Yes!” Lamal said, forming a hand seal.
An orange-yellow star array lit up.
Soon, a familiar Pet appeared within the star array.
“Immortal Treasure Butterfly?” Qiao Sang’s tone carried a hint of surprise.
“Ya…”
Seeing the Pet in front of it, Ya Bao instantly showed a wary expression.
“That’s right, it’s an Immortal Treasure Butterfly.” Lamal said with a smile: “But my Immortal Treasure Butterfly is female, unlike Grot’s.”
“Xian Bao.”
The Immortal Treasure Butterfly cried out, as if greeting.
After glancing at the Immortal Treasure Butterfly, Qiao Sang turned to Lamal: “I want to train with Peaceful Wave for an hour every day. When are you free?”
The daily one-hour training time was mentioned in the task she posted, so Lamal said without thinking: “Can it be every day at noon? You still have matches at night recently, so you probably won’t have much time at night.”
How considerate… Qiao Sang felt a bit embarrassed: “Then did you also watch the matches?”
“Of course!” Lamal’s eyes lit up: “I’m now a fan of your looks! Both Ice Aipalu and Flame Qilu are too suitable for the Coordination Competition! Especially Ice Aipalu! The snow it brought out when it appeared, combined with its looks, makes me feel like it could pass the first stage of the Coordination Competition without even needing to specifically show anything!”
“Xiao Xunbao~”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Xunbao appeared, its paw clenched into a fist against its forehead, striking a pose.
What about him?
Lamal was confused by Ghost Ring King’s action and asked:
“What did he say?”
Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds, then translated: “He’s asking if he’s also suitable for the Coordination Competition?”
After speaking, she was about to give the other party a look that said, “Quick, say he’s suitable.”
Unexpectedly, before she could even give the look, Lamal said seriously:
“Of course! Every Pet has its own unique charm, and Ghost Ring King is very charming too! Seriously speaking, as long as the Pet Coordinator is willing to put in the effort, there’s no Pet that isn’t suitable for participating in a Coordination Competition.”
Then she thought of something, looked at Qiao Sang, and suddenly became excited:
“Does Ghost Ring King want to participate in a Coordination Competition! Do you want to take him to participate in a Coordination Competition and see?”
“Xun Xun!”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xunbao stopped posing and looked at its Yu Beast Master with anticipation.
Don’t look at me. I have so much going on lately, where would I find the time to participate in some Coordination Competition… Qiao Sang complained inwardly, then calmly pulled out her phone, checked the time, and changed the subject:
“There isn’t much time left for the中午 (noon) break. Let’s hurry to my dorm to train.”
“Okay!” Lamal nodded.
After speaking, the two walked side by side towards the Special Zone.
“Xiao Xunbao?”
Xiao Xunbao, looking confused, looked at its Yu Beast Master behind it, then at the human who said it was charming.
Talk?
Why aren’t they talking anymore?
Weren’t they talking about whether to participate in the Coordination Competition?
Why did they leave?
…
Special Zone.
Dorm 100.
“Immortal Treasure Butterfly, Peaceful Wave,” Lamal said aloud.
“Immortal Treasure.”
The Immortal Treasure Butterfly cried out.
A pink ripple instantly spread from its antennae towards Ya Bao in a wave-like pattern.
I don’t feel anything… After the pink ripple disappeared, Qiao Sang felt herself and found that her emotions hadn’t changed, so she asked Ya Bao:
“Do you want to participate in tonight’s match?”
“Ya…”
Ya Bao looked at its Yu Beast Master, its expression momentarily confused, then it seemed to react and nodded.
“Okay.”
Peaceful Wave still has such a huge impact on Ya Bao… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly, then thought of something and turned to Lamal:
“Is one point per hour settled on the same day, or all at once after it’s over?”
Lamal quickly said: “I almost forgot to mention, I don’t want points.”
Qiao Sang was stunned: “Then what do you want?”
Lamal smiled: “In half a month, the First District will hold a Coordination Competition. Will you be able to come with me then?”
Qiao Sang confirmed:
“You just need me to go with you to watch the match?”
Lamal nodded and hummed in affirmation.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, “Okay.”
Although she didn’t know why the other party made this request, just going to watch a match together seemed like a good deal.
About ten minutes later, while Qiao Sang went to the restroom, Lamal sat on the sofa, holding her phone, and sent a text message:
[She agreed.]
…
6:20 PM.
Qiao Sang sat in the contestant area and saw several people rushing towards her and being escorted away by security guards.
Almost half a minute after a young man was escorted away, another middle-aged man rushed over with an excited expression:
“Qiao Sang! Save me! I have kidney failure! Please let Ice Aipalu heal me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a bear-like Pet wearing a security uniform used Electro-optic Flash and transformed into a white light, passing by him.
Almost with a “whoosh,” the white light headed towards the exit, and the middle-aged man on the field was also gone.
Qiao Sang: “…”
I didn’t encounter this when I participated in the National Campus Pet Beast League…
Qiao Sang was depressed for a moment, then thought of something, pulled out her phone, and opened the trending topics.
The hashtag # ChapterIce Aipalu, Healing Light# Chapter was ranked third.
At this moment, Pilit spoke:
“The Beastmaster Star Tournament is already being watched by the entire network. More and more people will pay attention to you in the future, but that’s nothing. You are developing with the goal of participating in the Interstellar Cup, so these things will happen sooner or later.”
Indeed, although the National Campus Pet Beast League I participated in before was a national competition, the people who actually paid attention were students, parents, and teachers. The popularity was very different from the Beastmaster Star Tournament, and the people watching this competition came from all walks of life, all kinds of people… Qiao Sang put away her phone and nodded:
“I understand.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a large bird-type Pet flew overhead.
A blonde woman in a yellow windbreaker on the bird-type Pet held a megaphone and shouted down: “Qiao Sang! I need Ice Aipalu’s Healing Light! We can discuss anything you want! My contact information is…”
At this point, a transparent Barrier enveloped the sky.
The sound from the sky instantly disappeared, no longer audible, but the blonde woman above could still be seen holding the megaphone, her mouth opening and closing.
Qiao Sang: “…”
Why don’t they just find me directly? Why make such a big scene in public… Wait, it seems they can only find me here… Qiao Sang showed a thoughtful expression.
Non-campus personnel cannot freely enter or exit Yu Liandun University, and her residence also has a professional security system…
Should I just register a social account so that everyone can contact me easily, and it would be best to leave a message about the rewards I can offer…
Just as she was thinking, the Commentator’s voice rang out:
“Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the Beastmaster Star Tournament! Without further ado, let’s see which contestants will be battling today!”
After he spoke, 16 photos appeared on the giant virtual screen above the center of the arena.
Soon, the photos intertwined.
After about ten seconds, the photos paired up, two by two, and froze.
Qiao Sang saw her opponent, Elon Plio.
“Elon Plio, 35 years old, B-level Appraiser,” Pilit said: “Although his combat ability isn’t great, he’s willing to spend a lot of money on his Pets. During matches, he uses all sorts of items and Spiritual Marks on his Pets, which is why he’s won his way to this point.”
Got it, a big spender… Qiao Sang thought to herself.
