Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1302

1302. Chapter 1297 Let’s go now (two in one)

Seeing this, Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then his mind flashed back to information about Xia Lala.

Xia Lala, the mythical beast of Flame Sky Star, was said to possess the power to extend lifespans and revive all things…

Indeed, it could revive all things… Witnessing this with his own eyes, Qiao Sang’s heart raced.

Although the creature he saw resurrected wasn’t a living thing, but only a single Hidden Wealth, it was enough to prove that Xia Lala possessed such power.

“Xia Xia.”

The green light faded, and Xia Lala turned, smiling and chirping, indicating that it would not wither.

Qiao Sang praised her sincerely, “You’re amazing.”

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala smiled shyly.

Not to be outdone, Mikaela echoed the praise, “This is the first time I’ve seen such an ability.”

She wasn’t lying; she had heard of it, but she had never seen it in person.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala’s expression grew even more shy.

Mikaela was satisfied; this showed that Xia Lala was reacting to his words.

“Xunxun?”

Little Xunbao floated over, glanced at the Hidden Devil Grass with a curious expression, and called out, asking if the grass wouldn’t wither soon. Should he bring some soil?

“Xia Xia.”

“Xia Xia,”

Xia Lala answered the question immediately, calling out twice.

It’s full of life now, but it will wither after a while. At that time, it can be re-infused with energy and it’ll be fine. The soil doesn’t matter, as it prefers Yin energy.

As soon as she finished speaking, the Hidden Devil Grass shook its branches, as if echoing Xia Lala’s words.

“Xunxun…”

Yin energy? Little Xunbao thought of something, and stretched out his claws towards the Hidden Devil Grass.

However, at that moment, a visible black aura emerged from it.

Startled, Qiao Sang reflexively waved his hand, retracting Little Xunbao’s hand from the Beast Taming Codex.

While the Hidden Devil Grass was a plant, there was no telling whether it would be affected by the cursed aura.

If it was, and something went wrong, he wasn’t sure he could find another one within a month.

I have to keep little Xunbao away from the Hidden Ghost Grass for this month… Qiao Sang thought as he walked to the other end of the room, formed hand seals, and summoned little Xunbao back.

“Xunxun…”

Little Xunbao appeared in the purple star array, aggrieved, and called out.

Qiao Sang silently took two steps back and earnestly warned, “Don’t go near the Hidden Ghost Grass until you’ve completely controlled the power of the curse within you.”

“Xunxun…”

Little Xunbao nodded.

“Xia Lala, I’m counting on you to take care of the Hidden Ghost Grass for the time being,” Qiao Sang said, turning around.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala nodded with a serious expression and called out.

She would never let little Xunbao near the Hidden Ghost Grass.

Little Xunbao: “…”

Mikaela came to her side, lowered her head, and said softly, “I’ll help you take care of it.”

“Xia Xia,”

Xia Lala smiled sweetly at her and called out.

It smiled at me… Mikaela was momentarily moved, lost in that smile.

Qiao Sang remembered something important and said, “We only have less than a month left. We need to hurry. Xiao Xunbao, Qingbao, let’s go down and train now.”

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao nodded and called out.

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao looked hesitant.

“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang asked.

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao pointed at the black energy emanating from Xiao Xunbao and called out, suggesting that if it got close to Xiao Xunbao, it would be very unlucky…

“Xunxun…”

Xiao Xunbao looked down at the black energy emanating from him and his mouth drooped.

“Ya Ya!”

At this moment, Yabao called out, saying, “I’ll go down and train with you guys. Xiao Xunbao can just curse me.

” “Xunxun…”

Xiao Xunbao immediately looked at Yabao, tears welling up in his eyes, a look of emotion on his face.

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao glanced at the black energy emanating from Xiao Xunbao, his expression still hesitant.

At the same time, a gust of restless wind inexplicably rose.

Qiao Sang clearly heard a voice saying, “Or curse first, or curse first!”

She was silent for a moment, then said,

“Xunxun, dispel the cursed power from you first, then we’ll go down to train.”

As soon as she spoke, the wind stopped.

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao nodded, then looked at Yabao, his eyes glowing purple.

Yabao immediately felt a thick black aura emerging from his body and quickly channeled his energy, casting a divine fire to purify it.

Soon, the black aura surrounding Xiao Xunbao disappeared.

“Qingqing,”

Qingbao breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. A smile spread across his face, and he called out, “Let’s go train. “

…

Open-air training ground.

“Qingbao, focus on training the Star-Moon Hammer in your main form now, and try to master it before the battle test,” Qiao Sang said. The

Star-Moon Hammer is an advanced skill of the Fairy Hammer. Not only are the forms they display similar, but the methods of use also become similar as proficiency increases. In the later stages, both can be condensed from thin air, enabling long-range attacks.

Xiao Xunbao and Qingbao’s most surprising combination is Shadow Penetration combined with the ability to attack from a distance.

If Qingbao’s Star-Moon Hammer proficiency didn’t improve, and he couldn’t keep it in his hand, he wouldn’t be able to properly coordinate with Xiaoxunbao’s Shadow Penetration.

While there was an invisible moon and stars in the morning, their power was weak and couldn’t be fully concentrated, so this skill could only be trained and utilized at night.

“Qingqing,” Qingbao nodded.

“Then have your clone train with Xiao Xunbao in doubles,” Qiao Sang continued.

The clone’s experience will benefit the original pet, just as the pet’s skill points increase when the clone uses it.

“Qingqing.”

Qingbao was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

To be honest, it had never practiced like this before and was a little unsure…

Qiao Sang saw its concern and said sternly, “We can only practice this way at night. You won’t be able to unleash the power of the Star and Moon in the morning. So, Qingbao, you must practice hard.”

“Qingqing!”

Qingbao looked at its beastmaster with a serious expression and nodded.

Immediately, it summoned an identical clone, which floated to Xiao Xunbao’s side. Then, it raised its head, channeled its energy, and pink stars appeared.

That’s right… Qiao Sang watched the scene before him with satisfaction.

“Gangquan,”

Gangbao’s voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

It should be possible to directly increase the proficiency of the Star and Moon Hammer to the point where it can be used from a distance.

“Of course it is possible, but I still hope Qingbao can pass his own training.” Qiao Sang answered earnestly in his mind: “And it is a doubles test. The tacit cooperation with Xiaoxunbao cannot be achieved by the golden finger. It has to rely on itself.”

“Gangquan.”

Gangbao took a look at the training of Qingbao’s clone and Xiaoxunbao, called out in agreement, flapped his wings, came to the side, and started training himself.

Lubao glanced at Qingbao and Xiaoxunbao, and came to an open space on the side. An icy aura emerged from it, and the armor condensed by ice instantly covered its whole body.

“Tingting…”

Tingbao was on the side, watching Xiaoxunbao and the others train.

After Yabao purified the curse power in his body, he was about to train when he suddenly noticed Tingbao looking around. He couldn’t help but walk over and called out:

“Yaya?”

Why aren’t you training?

“Tingting,”

Tingbao called out, indicating that his beastmaster hadn’t told him to.

“Ya Ya!”

Yabao frowned and called out, indicating that training was something he had to do voluntarily, even if his beastmaster told him not to.

“Tingting?”

Tingbao looked puzzled.

Why should he train if his beastmaster didn’t tell him to?

“Ya Ya!”

Yabao called out seriously. “

Because you need to become stronger so you can compete with us in the future.

” “Tingting…”

Tingbao was stunned.

After witnessing the strength of Yabao and the others, he had never imagined he would be competing alongside them.

“Ya Ya!”

Yabao called out, indicating that he wasn’t training yet.

“Tingting…”

Tingbao responded instinctively, twisting his body to the side and began to circulate his energy.

As he began to practice, he realized something was wrong.

His beastmaster hadn’t told him to practice…

“Tingting…”

Yellow arcs of electricity shot up around him. Tingbao glanced at Yabao and continued to circulate his energy.

“Bang!”

All the power of thunder and lightning suddenly converged into a single beam, striking forward fiercely.

Never mind, training has already begun, so I might as well train myself…

“Bang!”

“Boom!”

“Bang!”

Deafening explosions echoed across the training ground.

Nearby, several beastmasters preparing to arrive for training could even feel the ground shaking.

“It seems a big boss is training…”

“Why don’t we leave and come back another time…”

“I thought so too.”

The beastmasters quickly agreed and turned to leave.

…

Time passed quickly, dawn arrived, and the morning light broke through the night, only to fall again.

This cycle repeated itself.

Soon, nearly a month had passed.

Hotel room.

“Xunxun!”

Little Xunbao, sensing the changes within himself, floated in front of his beastmaster and cried out happily.

The power of the curse had been completely absorbed!

Qiao Sang, who had been a meter away from Little Xunbao for the entire time, finally managed not to retreat. She sighed,

“You’ve finally absorbed it all…”

The cursed power was incredibly difficult to defend against. Little Xunbao had kept his distance, but he loved to teleport, and sometimes, when he saw something, he’d happily come closer to share it. So, occasionally, he’d still get close.

Then, before Yabao could even purify her, she’d start to suffer misfortune. She

‘d choke on water, choke on food, step on pet feces, and even get caught in a sudden gust of wind while flying. But thankfully, Little Xunbao had finally absorbed it all…

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao cried impatiently, wanting to test his energy to see if he’d reached the middle stage.

He removed the ring, pulled out an energy detector, and attached the cable to his body. “

You’ve already reached the middle stage,” Qiao Sang thought.

She read the Beast Taming Codex every night, and based on the level data, she knew when Little Xunbao had reached the middle stage of the King rank.

In fact, she had been planning to have Little Xunbao take the King Energy Potion since he’d be taking the battle assessment soon. However, the curse power hadn’t been fully absorbed yet, and taking the King Energy Potion might cause the two energies within his body to collide, so she didn’t let him take it.

“Xunxun!”

Little Xunbao soon saw the data and cried out excitedly.

He’d reached the mid-King level!

As a web surfer, Little Xunbao already knew the energy threshold for the mid-King level.

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao gritted his teeth.

Damn, Little Xunbao was stronger than me again…

Qiao Sang smiled and was about to speak when Mikaela said from the sofa next to him,

“Tomorrow is the deadline for the mission assessment. You should contact the examiner.”

Time flew by… Qiao Sang said, “I understand,” pulled out his phone, opened the Beast Taming Center’s official website, and clicked “Confirm and Submit” on the assessment task screen.

Almost the next second after clicking “Confirm,” his phone vibrated.

How fast… Qiao Sang looked at the number marked “Examiner” on his phone, was silent for a moment, and then answered.

“Have you found the Hidden Ghost Grass?” a savage voice rang out from the speaker.

Qiao Sang hummed, then couldn’t help but say, “Examiner, you’re incredibly fast! I just submitted my report and you called.”

Red was silent for a moment on the other end of the line. “The mission assessment is almost here, so I’m keeping an eye on it.”

He then asked, “Where are you now?”

“I’m in Dundee City…” Qiao Sang reported her current location.

“Send me your location,” Red said.

Oh my goodness, the examiner wouldn’t be coming right now… But then again, in the examiner’s eyes, she must have only just found the Hidden Ghost Grass. Once picked, the Hidden Ghost Grass only lasts a day, not to mention the mission assessment deadline is tomorrow… Qiao Sang pondered this as she replied,

“Okay,”

and sent her current location.

The caller hung up.

A moment later, her phone vibrated again.

It was the examiner’s number again.

“I’m already in the hotel lobby. Bring the Hidden Ghost Grass down with you,” Red said bluntly.

He really has the same efficiency as Teacher Mikaela… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and said, “Okay.”

He hung up the phone.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala seemed to realize something. She picked up the Hidden Ghost Grass from the flowerpot and handed it over.

Qiao Sang took it, looked at Teacher Mikaela, and said,

“The examiner is already in the hotel lobby. I’ll go down now.”

“I’ll go with you,” Mikaela said.

Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Xunbao.

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao understood the meaning of his beastmaster’s eyes. His eyes flashed blue, and he disappeared with his beastmaster and his teacher.

“Ya Ya…”

Yabao, forgotten in the room, gave a dissatisfied look.

In the hotel lobby,

two people and a beast appeared out of thin air.

Qiao Sang looked around and quickly found the examiner sitting on a sofa in the lounge.

She walked over and greeted him, “Hello, examiner.” “

Where’s the Hidden Ghost Grass?” Reid got straight to the point.

Qiao Sang handed him the Hidden Ghost Grass.

After inspecting it, Red smiled and said, “It is indeed the Hidden Grass. Your mission assessment is complete.”

After that, he stood up and said,

“Let’s go, let’s go to the battle assessment now.”

Qiao Sang: “???”

Michaela: “…” (End of this chapter)
