Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 829: Control

I mentioned it to you last time,” Qiao Sang said. “The first stage of the Coordination Competition is to showcase the Pet’s charm. The most important thing is to bring out the Pet’s own characteristics. If the Pet is handsome, then show its handsomeness. If it’s cute, then show its cuteness. I thought you were powerful, which is why I told you to show your power. This was also my mistake.”

“Your most powerful move right now is Wing Blade, but to show the power of Wing Blade, the most intuitive visual effect is for all the feathers to come out. I didn’t consider this point.”

When she signed up last time, the Coordination Competition was two months away, and she had many things to do: training, studying, earning money. It was impossible to spend two months preparing for the Coordination Competition.

So at that time, she simply told Xiao Xunbao and Steel Treasure about the general things to pay attention to in the Coordination Competition, letting them train on their own in their spare time. She didn’t expect Steel Treasure to give her such a strong visual impact.

Now there are only twenty-odd days until the Coordination Competition. Steel Treasure has already mastered multitasking to a proficient degree. It can control its clones for training from a slightly longer distance, which doesn’t affect its main body’s separate training on coordination-related abilities. She should also devote more energy to the upcoming Coordination Competition.

After all, the purpose of participating in the Coordination Competition is to let more people see Steel Treasure’s charm. Naturally, she is going in with the mindset to win; she can’t just go there unprepared.

“Steel Slash.”

Steel Treasure called out, indicating that it had considered it, but it just didn’t expect humans to be so bothered by its lack of feathers.

Only you aren’t bothered… Qiao Sang resisted the urge to bring a mirror for Steel Treasure to see itself without feathers and returned to the main topic: “I watched a few Coordination Competitions on the computer during this time and discovered a very important problem.”

“Steel Slash?”

Steel Treasure cooperatively called out, asking what it was.

“That is control,” Qiao Sang said seriously. “You also saw the live performance of the last Coordination Competition. When those Pets unleashed their skills and then detonated them, they would turn into beautiful light spots or produce a beautiful effect.”

“But when we usually train, after a skill detonates, it produces powerful air currents and shockwaves.”

“Steel Slash.”

Steel Treasure showed a thoughtful expression.

“The root cause is that we haven’t controlled the skills,” Qiao Sang continued. “As long as we train our control, we can also achieve that effect.”

“Steel Slash?”

Steel Treasure looked over and called out, asking how to train.

“Let’s train the entrance method first.” Qiao Sang said, pulling out her phone and clicking on one of the videos in her browsing history to play it.

In the video, a Pet, largely green with two pink flowers on its head, spun in place. As it spun, pink petals flew from its head to both sides, quickly enveloping the Pet like a pink Typhoon.

After spinning for nearly half a minute, the pink Typhoon formed by petals suddenly exploded.

Countless pink petals scattered in the air, exceptionally beautiful.

After watching, Steel Treasure rarely showed a confused expression, not knowing what this video had to do with it, as it didn’t have this skill.

At this moment, Qiao Sang said, “Don’t you think this move is very similar to your Typhoon?”

Steel Treasure: “???”

Similar?

“Try casting Typhoon while spinning. It will form a vortex like a Typhoon, and then scatter like the Pet in the video,” Qiao Sang instructed. “However, whether it’s the Typhoon cast while spinning or the final stage where the Typhoon detonates, both require extremely strong control. There can be no mistakes, otherwise the entire appearance will fall apart.”

Steel Treasure looked thoughtful, then called out.

But after Typhoon detonates, it doesn’t seem to be able to form a beautiful picture.

“You forgot, what you need to show is your power,” Qiao Sang said with a smile. “The display segment doesn’t necessarily have to be beautiful. The important thing is to show the Pet’s charm. As long as this appearance is successfully completed, it shouldn’t be a problem for us to enter the next stage.”

“Steel Slash.”

Steel Treasure nodded, indicating that it understood.

Then it turned and walked towards the door.

It understood that the Typhoon skill was not suitable for training indoors.

Qiao Sang followed Steel Treasure to the outdoor training ground.

As soon as she arrived at the training ground, she saw a red-gold beam of light flash before her eyes.

Immediately after, there was a loud “boom,” and heat waves and shockwaves raged.

A pitch-black figure fell from it.

Xiao, Xiao Xunbao… Qiao Sang reluctantly shifted her gaze for 0.1 seconds.

Within that 0.1 second, a blue light shone on Xiao Xunbao.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

A few seconds later, Xiao Xunbao revived on the spot.

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao blinked, saw its Yu Beast Master in the distance, and instantly its eyes welled up with tears, looking pitiful.

This is something that must be experienced sooner or later in the process of growth… Qiao Sang mercilessly shifted her gaze and walked towards Steel Treasure’s direction.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao saw its Yu Beast Master ignoring it, and grief welled up.

Just as large tears were about to fall, a flame descended from the sky.

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao’s tears stopped, and it quickly teleported away from its spot.

On the other side.

Qiao Sang looked up at Steel Treasure in the high sky and communicated with her mind: “While spinning in the air, cast Typhoon, and remember to control the energy.”

“Steel Slash.”

Steel Treasure’s voice appeared in her mind.

The next second, it flapped its wings and began to spin.

Subsequently, a great Typhoon arose.

2:30 PM.

In the high sky.

Qiao Sang sat on Ya Bao’s back and comforted it: “It’s definitely not smooth when you first start practicing. Don’t rush, there are still 20-odd days anyway. Once your Typhoon skill proficiency is higher, you’ll be able to control it better.”

“Steel Slash.”

Steel Treasure nodded, indicating that it understood.

Twenty-five minutes later.

Coordination Center.

To successfully register for the Coordination Competition, the first thing to do is to be certified as an F-rank Pet Coordinator at the Coordination Center.

Qiao Sang had been out shopping and stocking up every day for a while to make sure her unlimited card fulfilled its value in its final days, so she didn’t have time to come over.

Now that she no longer had the unlimited card, she had time.

First floor lobby.

Window 19.

“I’d like to take the F-rank Pet Coordinator assessment.” Qiao Sang handed over her ID card.

“Please wait.” The Staff took the ID card and operated on the computer.

Soon after, they handed the ID card back: “Registration successful. Please wait in the waiting area on the second floor.”

“Okay.” Qiao Sang took the ID card and went to the second floor.

At this time, there weren’t many people sitting in the waiting area.

Qiao Sang quickly scanned the area and found people of all ages.

However, what was similar was that everyone was dressed fashionably, and many people had also dressed up their Pets.

Although Pets do not have a high status on Super Dormant Star, among all Pet-related professions, Pet Coordinators undoubtedly provide the best treatment for their Pets.

Because Pet Coordinators must ensure that their Pets maintain excellent conditions in all aspects, they cannot be harsh with their diet and also ensure they have sufficient sleep.

Qiao Sang found a seat and sat down.

After about ten minutes, her name appeared on the giant virtual screen in front.

“Number 166, Qiao Sang, please proceed to Room 09.”

PS: That’s right, as everyone said, this is the last storyline on Super Dormant Star, but this storyline is very important! Please don’t skip it!
