Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1283

1283. Chapter 1278 Unexpected Talent (Two in One)

Lying where the sound came from was Tingbao.

Qingbao stopped practicing and looked over in disbelief.

“Xunxun?”

Little Xunbao barked with astonishment, signaling, “Old Six, that was you who made that noise.”

“Tingting.”

Tingbao raised his head and nodded, then with a puzzled expression, barked, “It’s just a change of language, isn’t it? Why did Qingbao need to practice so long? “

Qingbao: “…”

Xia Lala fell silent in the flowerpot.

“Xunxun!”

Little Xunbao’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he floated over and barked. “

So you’re so amazing!

” Is Tingbao so clever… Qiao Sang’s heart moved. He looked at Tingbao and asked,

“Can you make the sounds of other species besides little Xunbao?”

“Tingting,”

Tingbao barked, indicating that he would try.

After a moment’s thought, he opened his mouth and said,

“Ya Ya.”

“Bingdi.”

“Gan, Quan.”

“Qingqing.”

Yabao, who was training with his clone, suddenly glanced over.

Even Lubao, sprawled in the water tank, opened his eyes.

As each race’s language was spoken, Xiaoxunbao and Qingbao’s eyes widened, Qingbao’s gaze gleaming with admiration.

Having tried speaking other races’ languages before, he knew firsthand how challenging it was.

“Jis!”

Jisi’s egg rolled over, a look of admiration on his face, and he barked, “You’re amazing!

” “Tingting,”

Tingbao said with a nonchalant, “What’s so easy?” He said, “Everyone talks to me every day, so it’s nothing difficult. I think anyone with a brain could learn it.”

It took only 0.01 seconds for these words to pierce Qingbao’s heart.

If it had been Xiaoxunbao who spoke, he would have felt mocked. But it was Tingbao who spoke, and he could sense the truth, a feeling even more painful than the mockery itself.

Xia Lala was equally distressed. She remained silent for a few seconds, then quietly sank her head back into the flowerpot.

Tingbao hadn’t practiced at all, yet, simply by listening to Yabao and the others, he’d already mastered the languages of so many races. What a remarkable talent for languages… Qiao Sang was astonished. Then, a thought struck her, and she asked expectantly,

“What about human language? Can you try to speak a word?”

At this, Xia Lala, in the flowerpot, twitched her ears and poked her head out again.

Human language? Qingbao’s discomfort suddenly dissipated, and he and little Xunbao looked over with anticipation.

“Tingting.”

Speaking of human language, Tingbao’s confidence was clearly lacking. After a pause, he barked, indicating he’d give it a try.

With that, Tingbao began to prepare.

After about three seconds, a childish voice rang out:

“Ting, Bao.”

The Yabao and the others, including the usually calm Lubao, stared wide-eyed in shock.

Little Xunbao’s mouth opened into an “O” shape.

He could actually speak! Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up.

Before she could utter a word, the door to the nearby room swung open. Mikaela stood in the doorway, stunned, and asked,

“Did Lei Nilong just say that?”

She’d actually heard the conversation outside, but she’d only come out to ask out of disbelief.

After all, aside from some pets with language abilities and some older, powerful pets, few could learn human language.

And Lei Nilong had no language-related abilities, and was only a cub, yet he could speak so many languages, even human. It was truly unprecedented!

Upon seeing Mikaela, Tingbao’s face darkened uncontrollably.

“Yes!” Qiao Sang looked at Teacher Mikaela with a proud expression, “Tingbao can speak human language without even practicing, and even the languages of Yabao and the others!” Tingbao

straightened his back.

Mikaela looked at Tingbao with a complicated expression, saying, “I didn’t expect Lei Nilong to have such a strong talent for languages.”

Tingbao was stunned; he hadn’t expected such praise from a human in front of him.

“I didn’t expect this at all,” Qiao Sang sighed. “I was supposed to have Qingbao practice, but I didn’t expect Tingbao to suddenly speak in Xunbao’s language.”

“Xunxun…”

Xunbao nodded in agreement.

It hadn’t expected this either.

“I didn’t expect this either,” Qingbao thought.

Seeing the expressions of his own beastmaster, the bad human before him, and Xunbao, Tingbao finally realized how impressive this was. A smirk curled his lips, and he exclaimed without a hint of modesty:

“Tingting.” “

Maybe I’m just too smart.

” “Of course you’re smart. If you weren’t, how could you have learned so many languages?” Qiao Sang said in agreement.

“Tingting.”

Hearing his beastmaster praise him like this, Tingbao felt a little embarrassed.

Speaking of cleverness, Mikaela recalled something else he’d heard earlier in the room and asked:

“Qingyun Nana just used Fairy Silk?”

Qiao Sang hummed. “I redeemed it at the school’s points exchange counter for 3,000 points.”

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao, standing nearby, was stunned by this.

It remembered that the King Power Potion at Yantian University only cost 1200 points. How could the Fairy Silk it was using actually cost so many more points than the King Power Potion?

That was a potion for King-level pets, and it was only at General level.

Was the Fairy Silk too potent, or was it that the points at Yantian University were more valuable than those at its own Beastmaster School?

All sorts of thoughts raced through Qingbao’s mind.

It hadn’t realized it was something it hadn’t considered before.

Mikaela smiled and said, “Fairy Silk is a very rare material among all fairy-related materials, practically priceless. 3,000 points for one piece of Fairy Silk isn’t a bad deal.”

After a pause, she added, “However, Fairy Silk’s primary function isn’t to increase energy, but to enhance your pet’s comprehension.”

At this point, Mikaela glanced at Qingbao discreetly. “This will gradually become apparent in the future.”

What did this human mean? Was he saying it wasn’t smart right now? Qingbao felt a surge of discontent.

Qiao Sang quickly asked, “The energy in it should be enough to advance from mid-level General to late-level General, right?”

After all, her real reason for purchasing the Fairy Silk was to increase Qingbao’s energy. If she couldn’t raise her energy to even a small level, wouldn’t that be a waste of points?

In her opinion, it would be best if Qingbao could increase his comprehension, but if not, it wouldn’t matter. Qingbao’s intelligence was more than enough for regular training and cooperation in competition.

Mikaela pondered for a moment, then said, “Each fairy silk thread contains different amounts of energy. However, the fairy silk you redeemed requires 3,000 points. The energy contained should be enough to advance from mid-level to late-level, and possibly even further.”

“That’s good,” Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief.

“During this period, you can use the energy monitor to check Qingyun Nana’s energy level every day,” Mikaela instructed.

Qiao Sang said, “I will.”

Mikaela finished her words, glanced at Tingbao with a complicated expression, and returned to the room.

…

One o’clock in the morning.

Inside the room.

Qingbao, who had been closed, suddenly opened his eyes. He glanced around, noticing that Xiaoxunbao was gone. He glanced at his sleeping beastmaster, then floated out the window.

He arrived at a nearby natural landscape, emerged, and looking around. Seeing no one and no pet, he opened his mouth and began practicing:

“Qing, qing, qing, qing…”

He must practice quietly, so that he could amaze his beastmaster and Xiaoxunbao and the others!

“Qing, qing, qing…” Qing Bao

was concentrating on practicing when suddenly a rustling sound came from the green plants next to him.

Qing Bao immediately shut up, a look of vigilance on his face, and looked in the direction of the sound.

One second, two seconds…

maybe five or six seconds passed, and there was no more movement around.

“Qingqing!”

Qingbao, as if sensing something, called out with an impatient expression.

At the same time, a sudden gust of wind swept across the surrounding greenery.

The flowers and plants in the garden suddenly tilted in the same direction, rustling.

Amidst the swaying vegetation, a familiar flower suddenly appeared.

Unlike the others, it didn’t sway with the wind; instead, it stood upright in the ground.

Qingbao was stunned for a moment, then, with an amused expression, called out,

“Qingqing?”

At the same moment, the wind died down.

The leaves on either side of the flower, rooted upright in the ground, trembled, and a head emerged from the bud, transforming into the form of Xia Lala.

“Xia Xia…”

Xia Lala called out, her legs untangling, stepping out from among the flowers and plants with an embarrassed expression.

She had thought she wouldn’t be noticed…

“Qingqing,”

Qingbao said teasingly, grinning. “You’re too obvious.”

“Xia Xia…”

Xia Lala scratched her head sheepishly.

Really…

“Qing Qing?”

Qing Bao called out with a curious expression. “

Why are you here?”

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala glanced at it and called out. “

I’m the same as you.

” “The same as me?” Qing Bao paused, then called out tentatively.

“Qing Qing?” “

Can’t sleep either?”

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala shook her head and called out honestly, indicating that she was out here practicing the other race’s language.

“Qing Qing!”

It seemed she had been completely observed practicing just now… Qing Bao felt a little embarrassed, but feigned surprise and called out. “

So you’re here to practice the other race’s language too!

” “Xia Xia,”

Xia Lala sighed and called out, saying that with Qi Yu Feng following her around all the time, it was difficult for her to speak, so she wanted to practice more and learn Xian Xian Pu’s language quickly so that she could speak more easily.

Seeing that Xia Lala hadn’t learned Xian Xian Pu’s language after all this time, Qing Bao felt a little more comfortable with her.

“Qing Qing,”

Qing Bao said with a sincere comfort.

Other races’ languages are too difficult, so it’s normal that you can’t learn them. But it’s okay, I can practice with you.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala’s eyes lit up, and she nodded.

Under the moonlight, the evening breeze blew from all directions, swaying the flowers and plants slightly.

Among the flowers and plants, two figures, one large and one small, were practicing diligently.

“Qing, qing, qingqing, qing…”

“Xia, Xia, Xia Xia, Xia…”

Not far away, an insect-type pet slowly crawled by. Hearing the commotion, it turned its head curiously, then turned back and continued its slow crawl forward.

…

The next morning.

In the hotel restaurant, Qing Bao ate his energy meal, his eyelids drooping from time to time, his head nodding, as if he hadn’t slept well.

Next to him, Xia Lala was doing the same.

“What’s wrong with you? Didn’t you sleep well last night?” Qiao Sang asked as he sipped his juice.

“Qingqing…”

Qing Bao struggled to keep his eyes open and called out, indicating that he had slept well.

Qiao Sang: “…”

You’re lying with your eyes open…

Xia Lala said nothing, yawned, and nodded honestly.

What’s going on? Qingbao didn’t sleep well, maybe because he just absorbed the fairy silk. Why didn’t Xia Lala sleep well either… Qiao Sang muttered to himself and called out,

“Lu Bao.”

Lu Bao gracefully swallowed the energy pill, and the gem on her forehead emitted a faint blue light, illuminating Qingbao and Xia Lala.

Soon, the blue light dissipated, and Xia Lala and Qingbao were already full of energy.

“Xun Xun!”

Little Xun Bao called out, announcing that when he returned from the refereeing last night, he found Lao Wu was not in the room! So he must have not slept well!

Qingbao’s body, which had just regained its vitality, suddenly stiffened.

Now Qingbao has his own secrets, too. But, little Xunbao, you’ve just become close with Qingbao, and now you’re exposing him? Aren’t you afraid he’ll turn into wind and blow you away again? Qiao Sang sighed inwardly. To ensure harmonious training between Xunbao and Qingbao later, he pretended not to hear and didn’t respond.

Seeing his beastmaster ignore him, Xunbao felt bored and continued to take his energy pills.

Qingbao sighed in relief.

“Today, you continue training with Thunder Penetration,” Qiao Sang said.

“Xunxun~”

“Qingqing,”

Xunbao and Qingbao called out simultaneously, confirming that everything was fine.

…

Time passed slowly.

A month later.

Inside the room, Qiao Sang leaned back on the sofa, her eyes glazed over for a moment.

But soon, her eyes regained their vitality.

Qingbao, under the influence of the Fairy Silk, had already reached the late General level. She had been adding points to her level daily. Now that she was almost at the General level’s energy limit, she decided not to add any more points, lest she have to wear the Unchanging Stone to inhibit her evolution.

After all, Qingbao had been practicing doubles with Xiaoxunbao lately, cultivating their rapport, and none of their new skills had yet reached ultimate proficiency…

The Fairy Spirit Jade should arrive in two days… As

her thoughts flashed, she suddenly sensed something, gathered her thoughts, and turned to look.

Gangbao, who had been sleeping, had woken up.

Its dark red eyes looked sharp, unlike the dazed state it had shown when it woke up a while ago, looking as if it hadn’t slept enough.

Qiao Sang’s heart moved, and he inquired, “Has the energy been absorbed?”

“Steel Power.”

Steel Treasure sensed it and nodded and called out.

It must be because it no longer felt the energy in its body being automatically absorbed.

So fast, it’s a full month faster than Teacher Jacqueline had said… As a precaution, Qiao Sang’s consciousness reentered the Beast Taming Codex and quickly flipped to the page about Steel Treasure.
