Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1362
Chapter 1362. Chapter 1357 The Sky-Looking Bird and the Power of Faith (Two-in-One)
The next morning.
At the dining table next to the villa’s living room, Xiao Xunbao ate its energy meal at an extremely slow pace. Food it usually swallowed in a bite or two took it ten or more chews to swallow.
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao quickly finished its own energy pill, looked at the half-eaten pills left on Xiao Xunbao’s plate, and barked in dissatisfaction, indicating that it was eating too slowly.
“Xun Xun…”
Xiao Xunbao swallowed its energy pill, sighed, and barked, indicating that it didn’t know why its appetite wasn’t particularly good this morning.
“Ya Ya!”
Hearing this, Ya Bao stopped urging it, barked, and said, “Then eat slowly, it’s going to train now, come find me when you’re done.
” “Xun Xun…”
Xiao Xunbao nodded, pretending to be listless.
Ya Bao walked towards the door.
“Xun Xun~”
Once Ya Bao’s figure had completely disappeared from the living room, Xiao Xunbao perked up, took a sip of its drink, and then grabbed a tree fruit and started munching on it, showing no signs of having a poor appetite.
“Qingqing.”
Qingbao glanced at it and called out mockingly, indicating that it knew the other person was faking it.
“Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao gave a “don’t talk nonsense” look and called out.
It wasn’t faking it.
After saying that, it put down the tree fruit it had just nibbled on and started eating the energy pill in front of it, quickly finishing most of it.
Qingbao: “…”
This guy is getting better and better at lying through his teeth…
“Yesterday, I checked the relevant research and books about Little Xunbao’s energy absorption and found that it’s very similar to the energy absorption of a certain pet beast.” Michaela said while eating a sandwich.
“What pet beast?” Qiao Sang asked.
Michaela didn’t answer but asked in return: “Do you know the Sky-Looking Bird?”
Qiao Sang searched her memory and shook her head: “Never heard of it, is it a pet beast from Tianyuan Star?”
Now she has a certain understanding of the pet beasts of Blue Star, Super Star, and Flame Star, but she knows the least about the pet beasts of Tianyuan Star.
“That’s right,” Michaela said. “It’s a rather magical pet that evolves through the power of faith.”
Josang paused, “The power of faith?”
“Yes,” Michaela said calmly. “Remember when I told you that some countries on Tianyuan Star are ruled by pets?”
“I remember,” Josang said.
“The Sky-Looking Bird is the supreme ruler of a country called the Sky-Bird Kingdom,” Michaela explained. “There are statues of the Sky-Looking Bird in various places throughout that country, and people transmit their faith to it through prayer and other means.” Josang
thought for a moment and asked, “Is there only one Sky-Looking Bird in the Sky-Bird Kingdom?”
“Of course not,” Michaela said. “The Sky-Looking Bird is a relatively rare and endangered species. Before the establishment of the country to obtain the power of faith, it was almost extinct. However, after the establishment of the country, the number of Sky-Looking Birds gradually increased, but even so, in terms of numbers and the difficulty of breeding, it is still in the endangered category.”
“Then how do people transmit their faith to different Sky-Looking Birds?” Josang asked. “Does everyone know the name of each Sky-Looking Bird?”
“That’s why I think Little Treasure Hunter’s energy absorption method is similar to that of the Sky-Looking Bird,” Michaela said. “Each Sky-Looking Bird in the Sky-Bird Kingdom has a different name. When a person or pet prays while reciting the name of their respective Sky-Looking Bird, the faith power within that Sky-Looking Bird increases.”
Josang paused for a moment: “Even if the Sky-Looking Bird isn’t present, the faith power still enters its body?”
“Yes.” Michaela took a sip of her drink and exclaimed, “So it’s a very magical power.”
With the internet so developed now, if Little Treasure Hunter could collect white energy simply by being loved by everyone, without having to be under everyone’s noses, wouldn’t that greatly shorten the time it takes to collect white energy… Josang sighed:
“It’s a pity that Little Treasure Hunter is different from the Sky-Looking Bird. It has to be within everyone’s sight…”
“Xunxun~”
“Xunxun~”
Little Treasure Hunter listened to the conversation and called out twice, indicating that it didn’t feel any regret. Only when it was present could it truly feel everyone’s affection.
As he spoke, he took off the ring, took out his own special energy pills, and poured some into the empty plate he had just finished eating. “
You’re happy, but collecting this energy is a long way off… However, Little Treasure is currently at the Royal level, and the next Emperor level is still a completely unknown form, so it’s normal that it’s a bit difficult…” Qiao Sang thought of something and said,
“By the way, teacher, I originally thought that to generate this white energy, we had to know Little Treasure’s name, but then I thought back, when Little Treasure finished those three matches, not many people actually knew Little Treasure’s name. I heard everyone basically calling out ‘Nether Ring Monarch.'”
“Do you know what the heart desires?” Michaela said, “This kind of magical energy sometimes goes to the target of the heart’s desire.”
“Initially, not all Skybirds were known by everyone’s name.”
“I think that when everyone was chanting ‘Nether Ring Monarch,’ what they saw and thought about was Little Treasure on the field, so the energy generated would actively converge towards Little Treasure.”
She paused and added, “If they knew the name, the feeling of liking wouldn’t need to be particularly strong to generate the corresponding white energy into Little Treasure’s body.”
In other words, knowing the name makes it easier to generate white energy.
I see… Qiao Sang suddenly understood.
Honestly, she felt that the truth might be as Professor Michaela analyzed. After all, the second research subject’s liking for Little Treasure Hunting yesterday certainly wasn’t as strong as that of the audience who were attracted by watching the competition live, and the white energy only appeared after learning Little Treasure Hunting’s name, which perfectly matched…
If that’s the case, then they still need to make Little Treasure Hunting’s name known to everyone as soon as possible… Jo Sang smoothly offered her flattery:
“Professor, you’re so smart, I think that’s definitely the case.”
Michaela couldn’t help but smile.
Who said that Jo Sang becoming an A-level professional beast tamer was useless? This is where her usefulness comes in.
“Xun, hiccup~”
Little Treasure Hunting rubbed its round belly and growled, indicating that it seemed it still needed to let everyone know its name.
After saying that, it thought of something, raised its paw, and was about to speak.
Before it could even finish its sentence, a flash of light entered the living room, revealing Toothpick’s figure.
Little Xunbao immediately lowered its paws, shifted its rear end forward, and tried to hide its round belly under the dining table.
“Toothpick?”
Toothpick looked at Little Xunbao and called out, as if to say, “Are you finished eating? I’ve been waiting for you for ages.
” “Xun, hiccup~”
Little Xunbao shook its head and called out, but only managed one word before uncontrollably letting out a burp.
Startled, it quickly covered its mouth.
“Qingqing?”
Qingbao wouldn’t miss this opportunity. It blinked, seemingly just calling out, “Little Xunbao, are you so full you’re burping?”
Before Little Xunbao could answer, it called out again, as if answering its own question:
“Qingqing.
You just ate two large plates of energy pills, a plate of energy food, and three tree fruits. You should be full.
” Little Xunbao glared at Qingbao and burped.
Qingbao covered its mouth and chuckled as it called out,
“Qingqing~”
Oh dear, you hiccuped again~
Xiaoxunbao: “…”
Xiaoxunbao opened its mouth, wanting to retort, but before it could utter a sound, Yabao came to its side and called out,
“Yaya!”
Now that you’re full, hurry up and come with me to train.
After saying that, he picked up Little Xunbao and headed for the door.
“Xun, hiccup~”
Little Xunbao stretched out its paw, wanting to ask its beast tamer for help.
Qiao Sang smiled and waved, saying, “Train with Ya Bao properly.”
Little Xunbao immediately lowered its paw, its face ashen, letting Ya Bao carry it out.
“Ice Saint?”
At this moment, Lu Bao seemed to suddenly remember something, raised its head and called out, indicating whether it wanted to stay.
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding Lu Bao’s thoughts, and asked,
“Don’t you want to train today?”
“Ice Saint.”
Lu Bao shook its head and called out, indicating that it wasn’t, but Little Xunbao was going to train, and you might be affected by the life-sustaining influence and collapse. If it was there, it could treat you immediately.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang was instantly moved and said gently,
“No need, you just go train. Even if you faint, I can recover quickly.”
Then, as if remembering something, she added, “Besides, Xia Lala is here with me; she can heal.”
“Xia Xia,”
Xia Lala called out while eating her energy meal, indicating that she was safe with Xia Lala around.
“Ice Saint,”
Lu Bao glanced at Xia Lala, nodded, then finished the last bite of her energy meal and walked towards the door.
“Fainted? Healed?” Michaela asked, puzzled.
“It’s Little Treasure Hunter’s life-saving intervention,” Qiao Sang sighed. “Ever since training with Ya Bao…”
Before she could finish, Michaela closed her eyes and slammed her head on the table with a “bang.
” Qiao Sang: “…”
A minute later, Michaela slowly woke up and raised her head.
Qiao Sang was about to say something
when Michaela raised her hand and said, “You don’t need to say anything; I know everything.”
Qiao Sang shut her mouth.
Michaela slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and said, “I suddenly remembered something and I have to go out. Dragon King stayed up too late last night as a commentator and slept in the room the organizers arranged. I have to go pick it up.”
Josang: “…”
Honestly, teacher, you might as well not explain. It’s just a simple hand seal…
Michaela also realized the flaw in his statement and tried to smooth things over, saying, “Dragon King should be with the organizers. I can’t just recall it directly.”
After saying that, he finished his drink and stood up to look at Penjami.
Josang quickly asked, “Are you coming back later?”
Michaela glanced out the window and asked instead of answering, “How long will Tooth and the others be training today?”
“It should be about the same as their usual training time,” Josang said.
Michaela then answered the previous question, “I might be back a little late. Contact me if you need anything.”
“What time is dinner tonight?” Josang asked.
“I’ll message you in advance,” Michaela said. “I’ll have Penjami pick you up.”
She quickly gave Penjami a wink, as if afraid of being delayed.
Penjami’s eyes glowed blue, and she vanished from the spot with Michaela.
Josang: “…”
…
6:30 PM.
Hotel.
Inside a luxurious private room, staff carried in exquisite dishes one after another.
After delivering the dishes and leaving the room, they couldn’t help but excitedly whisper among themselves:
“Ah! It’s that youngest A-rank Beastmaster, Josang! She’s having dinner at our hotel!”
“Little Treasure Seeker looks so dark up close!”
“I feel so hot when I’m near Fen Dido.”
“Ice Saint Asia is so beautiful, even more beautiful than on TV!”
“If I weren’t working, I would definitely ask her for a photo!”
Inside the private room, Josang savored the dishes, occasionally feigning a listening posture, pretending not to hear the conversation outside.
Ya Bao and the others happily ate their energy meals.
“I watched all your matches live,” Margot said with a smile. “Every match was fantastic.”
She then sighed,
“Unlike Jules, whose matches got tougher with each game.”
“The matches themselves get harder as they go on. Senior Jules was already amazing, winning even with four Royal-level pets on his side,” Josang said.
A blond, blue-eyed man with thick eyebrows and bright eyes, who looked to be only around 25 years old, smiled kindly at her.
Josang is such a nice girl. If it were Michaela, she would definitely have taken the opportunity to say something unpleasant… Margot looked at the girl before her, feeling more and more sorry for her. “
How come this isn’t my student…?
” Michaela said while picking up some food. “It was quite a tough match. I heard the final score was 6-5, you almost lost.”
“This is only the second round. The upcoming matches will probably be even tougher. You have to do your best. Your teacher has high hopes for you.”
Jules replied respectfully, “I will definitely do my best.”
Margot smiled and said, “Jules’s Leaf Gourd could have evolved to the Royal level a long time ago, but we wanted it to evolve perfectly, so we’ve been suppressing it. If the Leaf Gourd evolves, I believe Jules will definitely go much further in the competition.”
“It hasn’t evolved yet.” Michaela said calmly, “When do you plan to let it evolve? Is the Master Challenge over?”
Margot smiled insincerely, “We’re already preparing.”
“Then it needs to evolve quickly, since the next round is in five days.” Michaela smiled with narrowed eyes.
Margot almost lost her smile. She looked at the girl beside her and said, “Let’s not talk about Jules anymore, let’s talk about Jossan. How’s your preparation for the match going? Your teacher keeps saying you’re training and won’t let me see you. You’re training so hard, are you confident about the next round?”
“Not really confident,” Jossan answered honestly.
“Ahem,” Michaela coughed.
Jossan instantly remembered that she had come to help her teacher, so she changed the subject and continued, “Because I don’t know if I’ll encounter a fighter like Lefebvre. But even if I do, I’ll do my best to defeat him. After all, my goal is definitely not to stop at the third round.”
Meanwhile, in a private room at the end of the corridor.
“Hahaha…did you hear that? The youngest A-rank professional beast tamer in history said he’s going to defeat you!” A burly man’s ears twitched as he looked at the brown-haired, blue-eyed man opposite him, laughing loudly.
Leifeld lit a cigarette, took a puff, and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, saying,
“I heard that.” (End of Chapter)
