Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1465
Chapter 1465. Chapter 1459, Goodbye, Dragon King! (Two-in-One)
“This evolution time was way too short!” Qiao Sang thought to herself, looking at the Steel Treasure that had returned to its original form.
“Steel Power?”
Steel Treasure called out, suggesting it evolve again.
“Okay,” Qiao Sang nodded.
Although Steel Treasure’s evolution time was too short, as long as her scanning speed was fast enough, she could still see a few more lines.
Steel Treasure felt the connection with its Beastmaster, and white light shone on its body again.
Just as Qiao Sang was about to enter the Beastmaster’s Codex, the white light on Steel Treasure suddenly disappeared.
“Tooth?”
Qiao Sang: “?”
Qiao Sang and Tooth Treasure showed the same puzzled expression.
“Steel Power.”
Steel Treasure looked slightly embarrassed and called out, indicating that the previous evolution seemed to have exhausted its energy.
Meaning it couldn’t evolve again.
“Tooth.”
Tooth Treasure looked disappointed.
“It’s okay, we’ll wait until you have more energy to evolve again,” Qiao Sang said.
It seemed that whenever Steel Treasure evolved temporarily, it would consume most of its energy, preventing it from evolving again in a short time. Even when its energy recovered, it would probably only last for a second.
Rather than this, it’s better to wait until Steel-type Pokémon has more energy, so that it can at least last for about five seconds after evolving.
Now that we know Steel-type Pokémon’s next species name, knowing any changes in its other data is useless. After all, even if it gains a few more characteristics and skills, it can’t train or use them if it can only last for one second after temporary evolution.
“Steel-type Pokémon.”
Steel-type Pokémon nodded, indicating that this was the only option.
“Qing-qing.”
Qing-bao suddenly remembered something and called out, indicating that Steel-type Pokémon should be the one shooting for the magazine, not Little Treasure.
Actually, it wanted to say that it hadn’t even gone, but then it remembered that it was only a King-level Pokémon and hadn’t played in many matches, so it didn’t say that.
“Little Treasure is the Pokémon with the most consecutive wins against opponents of the same level in the Master Challenge,” Qiao Sang explained, “and the magazine that invited it is specifically for shooting Ghost-type Pokémon.”
“Why not me? Why not me?” A slightly irritated sound of wind entered its ears.
Qiao Sang continued without changing her expression, “Actually, it wasn’t just Gangbao. You, Yabao, and Lubao also received many invitations from magazines and media after the competition, but since we’re leaving Yantian Star soon, I turned them all down.”
She was only half-truthful. After the finals, many news outlets and magazines did contact her, but none specifically invited Qingbao.
Interstellar professional competitions rely on skill. Even though Qingbao was a legendary pet, it wasn’t particularly noticeable among the fiercely battling royal-level pets, hence the lack of a separate invitation. The
irritating wind immediately subsided.
“Qingqing,”
Qingbao couldn’t help but call out with a smile, indicating that they were indeed leaving soon, and there was nothing they could do about it. Gangbao
silently glanced at its beast tamer.
The next day, at six o’clock in the evening.
Qiao Sang sat at her desk, opened her laptop, logged onto the Imperial Beast Taming Academy’s official website, clicked on the points redemption section, then sorted by points from highest to lowest to see if there were any suitable items.
Now that she’s won the Master Challenge, she’s gained 300,000 points and the ability to choose any item from the points exchange section. It would be a shame not to carefully select one.
【Name: Heaven-Shattering Shield Armor】
【Type: Shield Armor】
【Function: When worn, it can withstand a heavy blow from a Venerable-level pet beast.】
【Note 1: Made specifically for humans; pet beasts cannot wear it.】
【Note 2: The shield armor is quite heavy; consider exchanging it only if you can withstand a thousand pounds of weight.】
【Note 3: It does not protect the head; if the head is attacked, it will have no effect.】
【Note 4: The effect is only once.】
What a useless item! Although being able to withstand a blow from a Venerable-level pet beast is impressive, Venerable-level pet beasts are not so easy to encounter. The effect is only once, and it doesn’t even protect the head. If she really encountered one, a Venerable-level pet beast wouldn’t just target the defended area with its ultimate attack; it would definitely attack the entire body from all directions. After all, even a Royal-level pet beast’s beam of light is several meters thick. Qiao Sang mentally complained as she looked down.
[Name: Star Cup Top 10 Battle VIP Ticket]
[Type: Ticket]
[Function: Allows you to watch the Star Cup Top 10 battle from the VIP seats.]
[Note: Top 10 players unknown.]
[Points: 400,000]
Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up when she saw that there were Star Cup tickets available for redemption in the points redemption section.
Four hundred thousand points…
Hmm, that’s a bit expensive, but thinking about it, with the same value of Alliance Coins, it’s impossible to snag a Star Cup Top 10 ticket outside.
Come to think of it, by the time she arrives on Tianyuan Star, the Top 10 battle will definitely be over.
Qiao Sang glanced at the Star Cup ticket information again.
Suddenly, she noticed that five words had appeared after [Name: Star Cup Top 10 Battle VIP Ticket]: (Redeemed Completed).
Qiao Sang refreshed the page and found that there was no longer any Star Cup ticket information.
Qiao Sang: “.”
It seems there are still too many people in the school who don’t lack points; so many points and they still haven’t been redeemed in seconds . Qiao
Sang gathered her thoughts and continued browsing downwards.
Meanwhile, her phone screen kept lighting up, with new messages constantly arriving.
Qiao Sang ignored it. Since the Master Challenge ended, her messages had been nonstop, even in the middle of the night.
They weren’t spam messages, but rather messages from acquaintances, some from Blue Star, some from Super Star. Due to time zone differences, some people hadn’t realized the problem, so even in the middle of the night on Yan Tian Star, new messages kept arriving, and there were even phone calls. At first, she replied to some, but later she simply turned on the reject function and silent mode.
“Xia Xia?”
Xia Lala, wearing an Everstone, pointed at her phone and called out, indicating there were so many messages, shouldn’t she take a look?
Qiao Sang glanced at her phone and said, “No need.”
Just then, a new message arrived from Fang Sisi:
【Qiao Shen, could you give me an autographed photo of yourself? If not, Gangbao’s will do. If Gangbao isn’t okay, Xiao Xunbao’s will do. If Xiao Xunbao isn’t okay, Ya Bao will.】
Qiao Sang’s lips twitched slightly. She picked up her phone, opened her chat with Fang Sisi, and sent a message:
【Why are you calling me Qiao Shen?】
【Ahhh! Qiao Shen, you replied! I’m so touched! You actually replied to me personally!】
【.】
【If you want an autographed photo, be normal.】
【Okay, I recently contracted my second pet, a flying type named Kaikai Bird. I wonder if you could let Gangbao meet Kaikai Bird when you come back. Seriously, my Kaikai Bird is definitely the best-looking one in its species.】
The next second, she attached a beautiful photo of Kaikai Bird.
Qiao Sang replied with a speechless emoji and turned off her phone.
She’d actually set her sights on Gangbao! But then again, Fang Sisi hadn’t changed at all; she still loved pairing her pets with those who had strong talents and abilities.
Qiao Sang recalled the past, picked up her phone again, and typed a reply:
【Gangbao is also female.】
Kaikai Bird, a pet from Hanggang City. Female Kaikai Birds are blue, while males are green, making them easy to distinguish.
Fang Sisi: 【(Thunderbolt from a clear sky)】
Fang Sisi: 【(Crying)】
Qiao Sang couldn’t help but laugh at the two emojis she received.
Since participating in the Master Challenge, although she had received many messages from acquaintances, she could still sense their reserve and ingratiation. Someone like Fang Sisi, who hadn’t changed much, was almost nonexistent.
Thinking of this, Qiao Sang replied:
【Where’s your address? I’ll send you the autographed photo directly.】
Fang Sisi replied instantly: 【Ahhh! Qiao Sang! I love you to death!】
Just as Qiao Sang was about to reply, she sent another message:
【I want Gangbao!】 Just
as Qiao Sang was about to take out the champion’s photo to sign, he was speechless. “
Steel Power?”
Steel Treasure flew over, raised a paw and meowed, indicating where it should sign.
Qiao Sang was speechless.
Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds, then called over Little Treasure, who was looking at netizens’ comments on his phone, and asked it to bring out the inkpad.
Steel Treasure dipped its paw in the inkpad and pressed it on the photo.
Just then, the door banged open.
“Zong Zong.”
Zong Te Bear called from outside the door, indicating that it was time to eat.
“Coming right away!” Qiao Sang replied, took out a tissue and wiped Steel Treasure’s ink-stained paw, then led Ya Bao and the others out of the room.
A rich aroma wafted from the living room, and the dining table was almost full of delicious-looking dishes.
“Why are there so many dishes today?” Qiao Sang sat at the table, somewhat surprised and delighted.
“Zong Te Bear said this is the last meal it will make for us, so it has to be a big feast,” Michaela said.
“Zong Zong.” Zong Te Bear nodded.
“Thank you for your hard work, we will definitely finish it!” Qiao Sang said earnestly.
Despite the table laden with food, Ya Bao and the others could easily finish it all by eating just a few energy pills.
“Ya Ya!”
“Xun Xun~”
“Bing Sheng.
” “Gang Quan.
” “Qing Qing.
” “Ting Ting.
” “Xia Xia.”
Ya Bao and the others all nodded and called out.
“Zong Zong.” Zong Te Bear smiled.
Soon, Ya Bao and the others were devouring their energy meals.
Michaela, while picking up food, said, “Pack everything tonight. We’re leaving at nine tomorrow morning.”
“Understood,” Qiao Sang replied.
She then placed a slice of tree fruit on Sharala’s plate.
“Xia Xia~”
Sharala smiled sweetly.
Ting Bao heard the voice and looked up at Sharala.
It wasn’t its imagination, but it felt that Sharala’s voice had become much more husky since she spoke openly with her Beastmaster.
Michaela tried to ignore the scene and said, “The Dean asked me again today if you’ve decided on a pet you want to contract.”
Josang paused, “Didn’t you tell the Dean about Sharara?”
Michaela calmly replied, “Shalarara’s situation is rather special. Even among the higher-ups at the Imperial Beast Taming Academy, I don’t think many could control her. Before a formal contract is formed, it’s best not to tell anyone about Sharara.” This
implied that she didn’t completely trust the Dean.
A flicker of emotion crossed Josang’s heart. “Then tell the Dean I haven’t decided yet.”
“That’s what I said.” After saying that, Michaela seemed to remember something and added, “Any transformation skills and items can be detected before boarding the starship. Even if Sharara has a transformation resistance flower, it won’t be of much use. It might cause some commotion, but the staff on the starship are specially trained and shouldn’t bother you. You and Sharara don’t need to worry.”
She said this to Sharara.
“I understand,” Josang said.
To be honest, she wasn’t worried. The Tenth Seat had already agreed to a contract between Xia Lala and her, and the Tenth Seat’s contact information was still in her phone. If anything happened that she and Teacher Michael couldn’t solve, she could just contact the Tenth Seat.
After speaking, she subconsciously glanced at Xia Lala.
“Xia Xia.”
Xia Lala noticed the gaze, looked up, and called out sweetly, indicating that she wasn’t worried about anything with her there.
Xia Lala and Qiao Sang were deeply moved
. The two gazed at each other affectionately.
Michael couldn’t stand the atmosphere and stopped talking, silently eating his meal.
The next day.
Early morning.
8:30, the villa.
Little Xunbao carefully placed the things his Beastmaster had packed into his ring.
“Xia Xia!”
Xia Lala happily carried the flowerpot she usually slept in to Little Xunbao’s side and called out.
“Xun Xun~”
Little Xunbao controlled the items and placed them into his ring.
“Ya Ya.”
Ya Bao yawned beside him.
Just as it opened its mouth, Qiao Sang stuffed a tree fruit into its mouth.
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao instinctively took a bite, its eyes lighting up as it quickly ate, no longer sleepy.
Soon, all the luggage was placed in the ring.
“Xun Xun~”
Little Xun Bao put the ring back on and called to its Beastmaster, indicating that everything was packed.
Qiao Sang glanced at the room where they had stayed for several months and said, “Okay, let’s go.”
With that, she slung her backpack over her shoulder, and Lu Bao swung its tail forcefully, jumping inside.
Qiao Sang led Ya Bao and the others to the living room.
Michaela and Penjami were already waiting there.
“Is everything packed?” Michaela asked.
Qiao Sang hummed in agreement: “Everything is packed.”
Then, she looked at the Dragon King, who was unusually not lounging on the sofa or picking its nose.
The Dragon King, overcome with sadness, didn’t show much expression, looking unusually dignified compared to their first meeting.
“Dragon King, let’s keep in touch,” Qiao Sang said.
“Mo Mo,” the Dragon King nodded, indicating it would.
As it spoke, it looked at its Beastmaster, a hint of reluctance flashing in its eyes.
Michaela looked at it, her eyes also showing some reluctance, and said, “Take care.”
She paused, then added, “If you need anything in the future, just contact me.”
“MoMo.”
The Dragon King’s eyes glistened with tears, but it quickly suppressed them, calling out to indicate that even without needing anything, it would still contact her.
The Dragon King, Michaela, was taken aback.
“MoMo.”
The Dragon King, unable to bear the sentimental atmosphere, feigned nonchalance and called out, indicating that they should hurry on their way, as it also needed to go back to look after the little ones in its clan.
“PenPen.”
“JiuJiu.”
“YaYa!
“
“XunXun
.” “BingSheng
.”
“GangQuan.” “QingQing.” “TingTing.”
“XiaXia.”
PenJiaMei and JiuBuGu, as well as YaBao, all said their farewells.
The Dragon King couldn’t control its tears and quickly turned away, not wanting to be seen.
“MoMo.”
With its back to its Beastmaster and the others, tears streaming down its face, it called out nonchalantly, implying that they should hurry up and leave.
Michaela was silent for a moment, then said, “Alright, take care.”
“Goodbye, Dragon King!” Josang called out.
The Dragon King remained with its back turned, waving its claws upwards.
Penjami’s eyes glowed blue, and she vanished with her entourage.
“Momo,”
the Dragon King turned around, tears and snot streaming down his face.
“Zongzong,”
Zongte Bear called out as he approached, indicating that the wages needed to be settled first.
The Dragon King: “???” (End of Chapter)
