Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 910: Flower City (two in one)
“I won, I won…” Qiao Sang suppressed her excitement, waved her hand, and recalled Tooth Treasure into the yu beast codex.
Honestly, this assessment was a bit more difficult than she had imagined, perhaps because previous Professional Beast Tamer assessments had been too simple, giving her that impression.
But as soon as the assessment began, she knew she was wrong.
Especially the later team assessment, not only did the Pets themselves have combination skills, but even two Pets paired together could unleash skills like Heavenly Thunder, which drew upon natural forces.
If Tooth Treasure hadn’t decisively aimed for the gap and teleported next to the Battle Sky Eagle, moving it under the Heavenly Thunder and directly causing it serious injury, and then Xiao Xunbao seized the opportunity to bind the Rage Thunder Head and use the Heavenly Thunder to defeat it, her second assessment would truly have been hard to say.
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Xiao Xunbao heard that the assessment was over and happily teleported back to her Yu Beast Master’s side.
“Well done,” Qiao Sang praised.
“Xiao Xunbao ~”
Xiao Xunbao’s expression was slightly proud as he stroked his hair back, indicating that this was basic operation.
The Middle-aged Man recalled the Battle Sky Eagle and Rage Thunder Head into his yu beast codex and walked over, looking at her with an incredibly complex gaze:
“The assessment results will be notified to you via text message within seven working days. At that time, you can go to any Yu Beast Center to exchange your pet tamer badge.”
B-Grade Professional Pet Tamer truly entered the big-shot level, even the exchange of the pet tamer badge was different from the previous levels… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and said, “Okay!”
“You…” The Middle-aged Man hesitated, but ultimately didn’t say what he most wanted to, changing his question to, “Are you in college yet?”
Her age wasn’t that of a college student, but to say she was still in high school, he felt it was impossible given her strength.
“Yes, I am,” Qiao Sang nodded.
“Indeed…” the Middle-aged Man asked, “Which Top Universities?”
“Imperial Beast Academy,” Qiao Sang replied.
“Of course, such a freak must be in the best Top Universities on Blue Star…” The Middle-aged Man felt unsurprised.
He smiled, “I look forward to seeing you in international competitions in the future.”
After speaking, he formed hand seals and summoned a Flying-type Pet about seven meters in size, riding it away.
All the Judges disappeared.
International competitions… Qiao Sang was stunned.
It felt too early for her.
Qiao Sang formed hand seals and simultaneously summoned Tooth Treasure and Dew Treasure.
Without needing her Yu Beast Master’s reminder, seeing Tooth Treasure’s appearance, Dew Treasure immediately lit up the gem on her forehead, shining it on Tooth Treasure’s body.
“Tooth Treasure!”
Soon, all of Tooth Treasure’s injuries disappeared, he opened his eyes, and became energetic again.
“Tooth Treasure?”
Tooth Treasure looked at the arena, saw that the opponents were gone, turned to look at his Yu Beast Master, and eagerly called out, indicating, “Did we win?”
“We won,” Qiao Sang said with a smile.
Dew Treasure wagged her tail.
“Xiao Xunbao ~”
Xiao Xunbao floated over, coughed, and began to share how he had used Substitute at the critical moment.
“Tooth Treasure!”
After hearing this, Tooth Treasure didn’t control his strength well, and one paw directly smacked Xiao Xunbao to the ground.
“Well done!”
Xiao Xunbao: “…”
“Let’s go,” Qiao Sang said with a smile in her voice, “Let’s go back and rest, then get ready to head to the next city.”
She hadn’t thought about international competitions yet; for now, her goal was the Regional Competition.
“Tooth Treasure!”
“Ice Emperor.”
“Xiao Xunbao ~”
…
Yu Beast Center.
Third floor.
Assessment Office.
“You said your assessment has passed?” The Judge was stunned for a long time, asking in disbelief.
Qiao Sang hummed, “I won both rounds, but the official results will be announced within seven working days. I don’t know if you can call that Judge and get this task passed first. I still have many tasks to complete and need to hurry to the next city.”
Won both rounds, won both rounds… The Judge listened blankly to Qiao Sang’s words, remained silent for a long time, and finally managed to digest the matter.
Indeed, she had considered that the other party would pass this task, but the timeline was definitely not now.
Given Qiao Sang’s strength at an age not yet 18, her strength would surely progress by leaps and bounds every so often, which is why she chose this task, thinking that the other party might complete it before the Regional Competition.
That way, having passed the B-Grade Professional Pet Tamer assessment, she should also be able to achieve better results in the Regional Competition.
Even if the assessment didn’t pass, it was fine; she would have definitely worked hard for it, and the other party was still young, with plenty of opportunities to participate in future Regional Competitions.
Anyway, even if Qingqing Ni evolved into an Intermediate Pet during this time, she wouldn’t be sent to participate in the Regional Competition.
But what she never expected was that in just one week, just one week, the other party passed the assessment!
Is the B-Grade Professional Pet Tamer assessment that easy now?
Could it be that the other party saw Qiao Sang’s strength at such a young age and decided to go easy on her?
As soon as the thought arose, the Judge dismissed it.
Impossible, the entire B-Grade Professional Pet Tamer assessment is simultaneously uploaded to the Beast Tamer Alliance, and there can be no mistakes. No one would intentionally go easy and risk losing their job in the Beast Tamer Alliance.
Therefore, Qiao Sang’s current strength is already sufficient to meet the standards of a B-Grade Professional Pet Tamer.
What a monster!
Sure enough, only such a monster could contract Qingqing Ni!
The Judge’s filter for Qiao Sang instantly increased by several degrees, and he immediately said seriously:
“The Judge who assessed you was sent by the Beast Tamer Alliance; I don’t have his contact information. For your task to pass, it must be officially confirmed by the Beast Tamer Alliance.”
“However, you can rest assured and go to the next city to do your tasks. I will check your information in a week, and as long as it has been updated, I will click ‘pass’ for you here, so you don’t need to come specifically.”
Qiao Sang quickly said, “Thank you!”
…
Accommodation area.
Qiao Sang knocked on Teacher Mi Jiala’s door.
The door opened.
Mi Jiala saw Qiao Sang’s appearance, her expression shifted slightly, and she tentatively asked:
“Did the assessment pass?”
Qiao Sang smiled, “That’s right, I won both rounds, Teacher. Are your things packed?”
As she spoke, she peeked inside.
Mi Jiala turned, pushed out a suitcase, and said with a smile:
“It’s already packed, let’s go.”
Although the B-Grade Professional Pet Tamer assessment was difficult, Qiao Sang managed to fuse Flame Qilu’s three Fire-type skills—Flame Vortex, Phantom Flame, and Exploding Flame Bullet—in just one week. Coupled with the roughly two months she had been teaching her, she had witnessed her create miracles multiple times.
After thinking about it, she decided to pack her luggage first.
To be honest, she was a little surprised by this result, and a little numb.
The surprise was that she passed the assessment; the numbness was that she indeed surprised herself by passing the assessment.
Mi Jiala handed the luggage to Pen Jiami, who had appeared, and closed the door.
“Which city are we going to next?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Huatian City,” Mi Jiala replied, and as usual, asked, “Do you have any thoughts about this assessment?”
Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and said:
“I feel like I’m still too weak.”
Mi Jiala: “???”
“Perhaps with my current strength, I won’t be able to achieve very good results in the Regional Competition,” Qiao Sang continued, “I plan to thoroughly research and practice combination skills after completing all the tasks.”
The minimum standard for signing up for the Regional Competition is a C-level Beastmaster, but those who truly make it to the later stages are B-level Beast Tamers.
According to today’s assessment standards, having only Dew Treasure, a King-level Pet, would definitely not be enough.
She hadn’t expected Tooth Treasure and the others to evolve into King-level Pets within a few months. To make General-level Pets unleash extraordinary strength, they could only rely on combination skills.
Mi Jiala didn’t speak.
“Teacher, what do you think?” Qiao Sang asked.
Mi Jiala said expressionlessly, “I think you should stop talking for now.”
Qiao Sang: “???”
…
Huatian City, a city known as the City of Romance.
Above the white clouds, flowers are planted everywhere, and occasionally petals fall, drifting down with the wind, which is very beautiful.
Therefore, compared to other cities, Huatian City has many couples and a high marriage rate.
A netizen from Huatian City once commented, “There’s no way, in such an environment, it’s hard to say no.”
When Qiao Sang emerged from the aerial passage and saw flowers everywhere, she knew it was true.
Flowers of various colors bloomed, and a gentle breeze blew, causing petals to drift downwards.
Small Flying-type Pets and butterfly-type Pets played or rested nearby.
Qiao Sang formed hand seals and summoned Tooth Treasure and the others.
“Tooth Treasure!”
Tooth Treasure barked excitedly when he saw the surrounding environment.
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Xiao Xunbao immediately teleported into a flower patch, happily floating around.
“Ice Emperor.”
Dew Treasure, unusually, didn’t immediately burrow into the backpack as usual, but instead admired the surroundings.
“Steel Sword.”
Steel Treasure raised his wing and mercilessly swept away the petals that had flown onto his head.
“Qingqing!”
Qing Treasure clearly loved it here, and in her delight, directly manifested herself.
Not far away, a child excitedly shouted, “Mom, it’s Qingqing Ni!”
Everyone’s gaze immediately turned.
Qing Treasure reacted quickly and disappeared with Wind Transformation.
Qiao Sang calmly called out, “Tooth Treasure.”
“Tooth Treasure!”
Tooth Treasure understood his Yu Beast Master’s meaning and slowly grew larger.
Qiao Sang flipped onto his back and left with Teacher Mi Jiala.
Everyone was indecisive, wanting to follow but not daring to.
Many people had seen the color of the star array just now; that was a B-level Beast Tamer big shot.
…
On the way to the Yu Beast Center, Mi Jiala suddenly spoke:
“Do you want to go down and look around?”
Qiao Sang was stunned, “I haven’t accepted a task yet.”
Mi Jiala reached out and caught a pink petal, slowly saying, “Tasks can wait until tomorrow. It’s good to rest occasionally during the journey.”
She paused, then added:
“You’ve already completed seven tasks, with only four left. You don’t need to be so rushed anymore.”
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Xiao Xunbao nodded repeatedly from the side, expressing agreement.
“Qingqing ~”
Qing Treasure manifested herself and looked over with expectant eyes.
Qiao Sang picked up her phone to check the time and suggested, “It’ll take us about half an hour to get to the Yu Beast Center now. I can accept a task in about ten minutes. How about we go shopping after that?”
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Xiao Xunbao nodded repeatedly.
“Yes, yes!”
“Qingqing ~”
Qing Treasure directly transformed into a gentle breeze and brushed against Qiao Sang’s face.
Mi Jiala stopped speaking.
Her mood was very complicated now.
Logically speaking, this time plan was perfectly fine, and she would have planned it this way before, but now she was just very complicated, especially after Qiao Sang said she felt very weak a few hours ago.
She wasn’t sure if it was serious or if it was a humble brag.
But one thing was certain: at this rate, her student wouldn’t need her and should still be able to enter the Interstellar Cup…
Qiao Sang saw that Teacher Mi Jiala hadn’t spoken for a long time, thinking she wasn’t satisfied with her suggestion, and said, “Teacher, if you want to go shopping, let’s go now.”
“No, let’s go accept the task first. We can shop later, it’s the same,” Mi Jiala said.
Then she thought of something and asked, “Oh, right, have you decided what you want to choose from the points exchange?”
“No,” Qiao Sang shook her head, “Everything is pretty good, but none of it is something I urgently need right now. I thought I’d wait a while until I need something, or until new items are refreshed in the points exchange.”
Such a well-planned and worry-free child… Mi Jiala looked up at the sky, suddenly feeling a little melancholic.
…
Half an hour later.
Yu Beast Center.
Third floor, Assessment Office.
“This, what kind of genius is this…” The white-haired old man, who looked to be seventy years old, stared blankly for a few seconds after reading the file, then looked up at Qiao Sang with the gaze one would use for a legendary Pet, sighing:
“You are the youngest C-level Beastmaster I’ve seen in my life.”
“No, I’m about to be a B-level Beast Tamer…” Qiao Sang thought to herself.
“There aren’t many tasks left here,” the old man said while checking the tasks.
After about a minute, he looked up and said:
“The flowers on the ground in Cuxian Street haven’t been absorbed recently. Go and see what’s going on and solve the problem.”
Qiao Sang hesitated, “Aren’t the flowers on the ground cleaned up?”
The old man smiled, “That’s elsewhere. In our Huatian City, flowers can fall at any time, so we can’t clean them up like that. There’s a group of Fragrance Eating Ants underground that come out and absorb the fallen flowers. For them, flowers are also considered nutrients.”
“I see…” Qiao Sang asked, “Are those Fragrance Eating Ants wild Pets?”
“Of course not,” the old man showed a “Why would you think that?” expression and explained, “That group of Fragrance Eating Ants belongs to Pet bases or some private breeding shops, with cooperation contracts signed with the government.”
Qiao Sang caught the key point and asked again:
“Which Pet base or breeding shop is responsible for the Fragrance Eating Ants on Cuxian Street?”
“You’ll have to investigate that yourself,” the old man was quite rule-abiding. “I’m only responsible for posting tasks here.”
“I understand,” Qiao Sang took back her ID card and pet tamer badge.
