Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 907: Poisonous sawbird

Exploding Flame Bullet and Flame Vortex would directly cause an energy explosion upon immediate contact, but if the Flame Vortex had enough space for the Exploding Flame Bullet to pass through, then during the passing process, a fusion might be attempted!

“Yaya!”

Hearing her Yu Beast Master’s words, Yabao struggled to keep her eyes, which were two shades redder than usual, open. She opened her mouth and channeled her energy.

A rotating flame, hollow in the center and a size larger than usual, instantly shot out.

Immediately after, a red-gold beam of light followed closely, passing directly through the Flame Vortex at an astonishing speed!

The rotating red firelight intertwined with the red-gold beam, and the scorching energy suddenly expanded several times.

The two intersected, seemingly merging into one.

“Bang!”

With a loud bang, the crimson flames and the red-gold beam of light simultaneously flashed and exploded.

A fierce shockwave, accompanied by high-temperature flames, swept in all directions.

It succeeded… Qiao Sang took a deep breath, her face flushed with excitement.

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao was awakened by the deafening noise. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the scene before him.

“Yaya!”

Yabao was startled at first, then looked at her Yu Beast Master, letting out an extremely excited cry.

It succeeded!

She succeeded!

Just as Qiao Sang was about to speak, Yabao closed her eyes and collapsed.

Even snores immediately followed.

A faint blue light shone on Yabao.

After the blue light dissipated, she was still snoring and asleep.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but smile.

That’s good, she trained all night, it’s time to rest…

Then she thought of something and looked at Xiao Xunbao.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao felt her Yu Beast Master’s gaze, her body stiffened, and then she suddenly covered her mouth with her paw and yawned.

Qiao Sang: “…”

Don’t you know you don’t get tired… Qiao Sang inwardly complained, but didn’t expose her, saying, “Let’s go back and rest.”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Accommodation area.

Room 708.

Qiao Sang leaned against the bed, a laptop on her lap. She logged into the Imperial Beast Academy’s official website, entered the Di Class’s exclusive page, clicked on the items in the积分兑换栏 (Point Exchange Column), and sorted the items from highest to lowest points.

The last time Teacher Mi Jiala said she could choose any item from it, she had roughly checked it out. She found that every item was quite good, and she couldn’t decide for a while.

“Name: Void Feather”

“Type: Feather”

“Function: The feather of a Void Dragon. With this feather, one can ignore restrictions and barriers to enter any Secret Realm that requires time and keys to enter, as well as forbidden places.”

“Remarks: Void Feather, the feather of the legendary Pet, the Void Dragon. Each use consumes its energy. The remaining energy can be used 11 more times.”

“Points: 1.1 million”

This thing is good, but unfortunately, it’s a consumable. Otherwise, I could exchange it. It costs 1.1 million points for only 11 uses, largely because this feather belongs to a legendary Pet, which adds to its value… Qiao Sang looked down.

“Name: Boundary Breaking Stone”

“Type: Crystal”

“Function: Allows a Pet to directly advance one major realm without side effects.”

“Remarks: The highest breakthrough limit is King-level. Pets above King-level cannot use it.”

“Points: 1.1 million”

This is good, but I have a Gold Finger, and my Pet will definitely evolve given enough time, so I might not need this… Qiao Sang thought calmly and continued to look down.

“Xiao Xunbao!”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

At this moment, Xiao Xunbao, who was beside her, pointed at the Void Feather’s information and cried out excitedly.

This is good!

Qiao Sang glanced at her: “Weren’t you sleepy just now?”

“Xiao Xunbao?”

Xiao Xunbao blinked.

Was she? She didn’t remember.

Qiao Sang: “…”

“Qingqing?”

Qingbao heard the conversation, looked over, and simply asked a question.

If he wasn’t sleepy now, did that mean he had to continue training?

Xiao Xunbao’s body suddenly stiffened, then she closed her eyes and lay down, silently pulling the nearby blanket over herself.

“Qingqing?”

Seeing this, Qingbao showed a puzzled expression.

Wasn’t she not sleepy just now? Why did she fall asleep?

Qiao Sang looked at Qingbao with a complicated expression.

Honestly, if she didn’t know Qingbao’s age and hadn’t spent some time with him before, she would have suspected he was doing it on purpose…

“Knock knock!”

A knock on the door sounded, and Teacher Mi Jiala asked from outside:

“Are you awake?”

She hadn’t even started sleeping yet… Qiao Sang got up and opened the door: “Teacher.”

“Do you want to go for breakfast together?” Mi Jiala asked.

“Okay.” Qiao Sang nodded.

On the top floor restaurant.

Everyone’s eyes occasionally looked towards the innermost dining table.

Mi Jiala took a bite of her sandwich and asked, “How was your training last night?”

“It went well.” Qiao Sang took a sip of porridge and said, “It has successfully fused.”

The steady and rigorous Mi Jiala was stunned: “What?”

“Yabao has successfully fused Flame Vortex and Exploding Flame Bullet,” Qiao Sang repeated with a smile.

Mi Jiala was silent for several seconds, took a bite of her sandwich, maintained a calm demeanor, and said, “That’s good, but it’s not enough to deal with a King-level Pet. You still need to train more, and it’s best to fuse another fire-type skill.”

Qiao Sang said seriously, “I understand.”

She thought so too.

Just then, the phone on the table suddenly vibrated.

Qiao Sang picked it up and saw it was a message from Yu Ke:

“Are you there?”

Yu Ke… Qiao Sang looked at the note and was stunned for a moment.

Honestly, she hadn’t contacted Yu Ke in a long time.

“I am.” Qiao Sang typed her reply.

“Have you returned to Blue Star?” Yu Ke replied instantly.

“San You Mu: Yes, I’ve been back for more than two months.”

“Yu Ke: I want to ask you something.”

“Yu Ke: (Picture)”

“Yu Ke: Is the person in this photo you?”

Before Qiao Sang could reply, a series of messages came through:

“We have a Yu Beast Master who contracted Qingqing Ni in the Zhongkong area. I thought you have the Qingfeng Compass, and you won the National Campus Pet Beast League, and you have the key to the 16th Secret Realm. The person in this photo also looks particularly like you, so I came to ask you.”

“San You Mu: It’s me.”

The other side immediately fell silent.

Qiao Sang put down her phone. After drinking most of her bowl of porridge, her phone vibrated again:

“Ah ah ah ah ah!!!”

“I knew this person looked like you!”

“You actually contracted Qingqing Ni! That’s amazing!”

“I’ve decided! You’re my idol from now on!”

Qiao Sang typed back: “I’m still your partner. How’s the business doing?”

“Yu Ke: …”

“Yu Ke: It was good at first, then there was a problem, but don’t worry, the problem will be solved soon.”

“Yu Ke: By the way, there are several photos of you at the Yu Beast Center circulating online, and they’re from different cities. Why don’t you have to go to school?”

“San You Mu: The school teacher has currently arranged for me to participate in the Regional Competition in the Zhongkong area.”

“Yu Ke: The Imperial Beast Academy is truly extraordinary, classes are held outside… Wait! Regional Competition?!”

Just as Qiao Sang was about to type, a voice call was sent over the next second.

She paused, then chose to answer.

Yu Ke’s voice was filled with disbelief:

“You’re participating in the Regional Competition? You’re a C-level Beastmaster?!”

Regarding contracting Qingqing Ni, she had actually had some guesses and mental preparation through online information, but Qiao Sang becoming a C-level Beastmaster truly caught her off guard, without any mental preparation at all.

You know, two years ago, the other party was just a first-year high school student who participated in a third-year high school competition by skipping grades!

To be precise, two years haven’t even passed yet!

Mi Jiala looked up silently, then continued to eat his breakfast.

Qiao Sang moved her phone a little further away, and when the other party stopped talking, she put it back to her ear and said,

“Yes, I took the assessment on Super Dormant Star.”

“That’s not right.” Yu Ke raised a question, saying, “One of the requirements to become a C-level Beastmaster is to have four Pets. Since you became a C-level Beastmaster on Super Dormant Star, how did you contract Qingqing Ni after returning?”

“Ah, isn’t this forcing me to show off…” Qiao Sang said in a calm tone,

“My brain region broke through to 50% not long ago.”

The other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.

Qiao Sang put down her phone.

After about ten seconds, Yu Ke’s voice, slightly hoarse, rang out:

“You’re not lying to me, are you?”

Qiao Sang picked up her phone and said, “What’s there to lie about? You’ll know when you watch this year’s Regional Competition.”

Again, there was no sound from the other end of the phone.

After a brief silence, Yu Ke’s voice became even hoarser: “I believe you.”

She paused, then suddenly thought of something and said, “By the way, do you need to see the company’s financial report? If you do, I’ll send it to you now.”

Even Yu Ke herself didn’t realize that she was no longer surprised and her attitude had suddenly become much more respectful.

“No need.” Qiao Sang smiled, “I believe you too.”

After hanging up the phone, Mi Jiala casually asked, “Friend?”

Qiao Sang thought for a moment: “Sort of.”

Mi Jiala didn’t ask any more questions and returned to the main topic: “Do you still need my help with training today?”

Qiao Sang said without thinking, “Yes!”

What a joke, having an S-Class Beast Master nearby, it’s a waste not to use him.

In the following time, Qiao Sang and Yabao spent almost all their time training.

Time flew by, and soon it was the day of the B-level Beast Tamer assessment.

Nine thirty in the morning.

Qiao Sang arrived at the corresponding outdoor assessment venue according to the message from the Yu Beast Center.

The Professional Beast Tamer’s rank assessment from B-level Beast Tamer onwards was different from before.

The specially dispatched Judge would only assess one Yu Beast Master on that day, and to avoid affecting the onlookers, no one was allowed to watch during the assessment.

So when Qiao Sang arrived here, she found only a Middle-aged Man with a square face, dressed in black, and a mechanical Pet about thirty centimeters in size floating in mid-air.

“Qiao Sang?” The black-clad Middle-aged Man came straight over, looked at her with a complicated expression, and asked.

Qiao Sang hummed in affirmation.

“Let’s verify the information on your pet tamer badge first, this is the process,” the Middle-aged Man said.

Qiao Sang took out her pet tamer badge.

The Middle-aged Man took it and handed it to the mechanical Pet nearby.

“This is a mechanical Pet sent by the Alliance, called Quan Jianpan,” the Middle-aged Man introduced. “Besides confirming the examinee’s identity, it will also record the entire assessment process and upload it simultaneously. Once confirmed, it will notify you whether you passed or not.”

“Don’t we know if we passed the assessment on the spot?” Qiao Sang asked.

“You will, of course, know the result on the spot,” the Middle-aged Man said. “It just takes time to wait for the notification and confirmation.”

While they were talking, Quan Jianpan had already finished scanning the information.

During the scanning process, a ten-inch virtual screen appeared out of thin air, displaying all the relevant information.

The Middle-aged Man subtly glanced at it.

“Quan Quan.”

Quan Jianpan handed the pet tamer badge back, nodded, indicating that the information was correct and it was the person herself.

The Middle-aged Man began to explain the assessment content: “The assessment is divided into two parts. The first part is a 1V1 assessment, and the second part is a 2V2 team assessment. You can rest for ten minutes after the first assessment. Are there any other questions?”

It’s the same as what Teacher Mi Jiala said… Qiao Sang shook her head: “No.”

“Alright, let’s begin.” The Middle-aged Man said, and started walking towards the command post on one side of the venue.

Qiao Sang walked in the other direction.

Quan Jianpan looked at both sides, moved upwards, then his originally black eyes turned red and looked down, taking everything below into full view.

Underage, damn it, she’s really underage… The Middle-aged Man looked at the black-haired girl who had also taken her position in the distance, took a deep breath, and nodded to Quan Jianpan.

“The assessment begins.” Quan Jianpan suddenly spoke in human language: “Both parties, please summon your Pets simultaneously, 3, 2, 1!”

Qiao Sang formed hand seals.

The dazzling crimson star array and the deep, mysterious purple star array lit up almost simultaneously.

A-grade Beastmaster… Qiao Sang’s expression became even more serious.

Soon, Lubao appeared within the crimson star array.

With his appearance, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped, and countless snowflakes began to fall.

At the same time, a Pet appeared in the purple star array. It was thirteen meters tall, almost entirely purple, with black pupils, a single purple horn on its head, serrated teeth, and large purple wings with serrated edges.

Poison Saw Bird, a dual-attribute King-level Pet of the Poison and Flying-type. Its serrated teeth are not only highly poisonous but can also bite through the skin of Steel-type Pets… Qiao Sang had diligently studied information about Pets in the Zhongkong area during this time, apart from training. With just one glance, the information about the distant Pet appeared in her mind.

The Poison Saw Bird spread its wings and flapped them hard, instantly sending a raging Typhoon sweeping around.

It stirred up a chaotic airflow and ascended into the sky in the blink of an eye.

White snowflakes fell on its body.

“Poison Storm,” the Middle-aged Man said.

The Poison Saw Bird flapped its wings downwards with force, and a terrifying hurricane, about thirty meters long, instantly formed, its destructive aura covering the sky.

“Ice Emperor.”

Lubao’s expression was serious.

Even though the wind hadn’t approached him yet, his three tails were already wildly swaying in the Typhoon.

At the same time the hurricane formed, the Poison Saw Bird opened its mouth.

Purple venom rained down from its mouth towards the hurricane.

The hurricane instantly swept it up.

A purple, highly toxic hurricane was formed!

Gusts of strong wind with a pungent odor rushed towards them.

A combination skill of venom and hurricane… Thankfully, Lubao is the one appearing this time… Qiao Sang looked at the scene before her, inwardly exclaiming “Good heavens,” but outwardly remaining calm.
