Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1498

Chapter 1498. Chapter 1492 Eliminate Skin (Two-in-One)

Seri quickly realized something and exclaimed, “So you were the student who exchanged for the Royal-level Energy Pool qualification.”

Michaela glanced at him, “Why are you still paying attention to this?”

Seri said, “Weren’t there the Interstellar Cup a few days ago? Many students and teachers from our school were there. Zhang Datao from the Imperial Class mentioned it when he came to check on me. He said he wanted to exchange for it, but someone else beat him to it.”

That’s right, that person was me, Qiao Sang. She changed the subject and asked, “Teacher, I want to ask, can a pet with Grass, Psychic, and Poison types eat only Poison-type berries?”

“Of course.” Seri was a little surprised that Qiao Sang asked such a simple question.

Upon hearing this, Sharara’s expression changed several times before finally showing a pained look.

“Then this pet has two forms. In its normal form, it doesn’t have Poison type.” Qiao Sang asked, “Only in its battle form will the Poison type be unsealed within it. Can it still eat only Poison-type berries?”

“No.” Seri said without hesitation.

Sharara breathed a sigh of relief.

Seri continued, “In this situation, you can only eat Poison-type berries in battle mode.”

Sharara: “…”

“If this Poison-type berry contains a lot of energy, what will happen if I eat it?” Josang asked again, “After all, it’s not its main attribute, and it only has the Poison attribute in battle mode.”

Seri thought for a moment and asked, “Are you talking about the kind that can directly boost your level by a small amount?”

Josang hummed in agreement.

Seri asked, “Is the main attribute of this pet you mentioned Grass-type or Psychic-type?”

“Grass-type,” Josang replied.

“Then find another Grass-type material with three times the energy of the Poison-type berry you have and eat it together,” Seri said.

He paused, then added, “It’s best to take this pet to a professional breeder for a checkup, let it transition to its battle form, and then, based on the ratio of Grass-type and Poison-type energy within it, make the most suitable combination.”

It seemed he’d have to go see Degas again. Josang remarked with feigned appreciation, “You’re really professional.”

“These are all very simple questions in terms of breeding,” Serious said with interest. “Perhaps you could bring the pet you mentioned over so I can take a look. A pet with a battle form, which only unlocks Poison-type abilities in battle form, and also Grass-type and Psychic abilities—I’ve been thinking for a long time but can’t think of one.”

His gaze was intense: “Have you found another special pet that can evolve into a completely new form?”

After saying this, he glanced at Fresh Puff beside him, then quickly looked away, continuing to stare intently at Josang, awaiting an answer.

Fresh Puff was just an extremely ordinary pet. Even if it could evolve into a completely new form like Fire Fang Dog or Little Steel Falcon, it should be a completely new form now, not still looking like Fresh Puff.

Most importantly, the pet that Josang mentioned should already possess a combat form. After all, he had never heard of a pet with a completely new form that could transform into another form.

“How could that be?” Josang chuckled. “Special pets with completely new forms aren’t so easy to find, and these kinds of pets require special opportunities to cultivate, they’re not something you can just find whenever you want.”

“That’s true.” Serai agreed, then enthusiastically asked, “So, is the pet you’re talking about one whose original combat form doesn’t have poison attributes?”

After saying that, he pondered, “If that’s the case, I do know one.”

“Don’t even think about it.” Michaela glanced at him, saying without changing her expression, “She just went to the Medicine Kingdom a while ago and became interested in pet breeding, she was just asking casually.”

Indeed, the pet that Josang mentioned was so special, it did sound like something he was just making up. Serai was disappointed at first, then something occurred to him, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said:

“If you’re interested in pet breeding, I can give you some related books, which you can’t buy on the market.” Just

as Josang was about to speak, Michaela said calmly, “Do you want the students of the Imperial Class to spend time specifically learning about breeding?”

Seri chuckled awkwardly, “I just saw that she was interested in breeding knowledge. It’s actually quite good for professional beast tamers to know some breeding knowledge.”

Michaela said, “Josang isn’t an ordinary professional beast tamer. She doesn’t need to specifically learn this kind of knowledge right now.”

Seri thought of something and said seriously, “I understand.”

Breeding two completely new forms of pets almost made him forget that the other party was not only a student of the Imperial Class, but also the youngest A-level professional beast tamer in history who had just won the Master Challenge.

He really had been staying on Tianyuan Star for too long.

After eating and drinking his fill, Seri spent the rest of the time roughly checking out Ya Bao and the others, and giving them his own breeding plans.

Generally speaking, they were similar to those of Ya Kelin, with no particular changes needed.

Suddenly, Serene thought of something and said,

“Among the Royal-level pets, Ice Saint Asia is currently the closest to the mid-Royal level. You can find an Ice Glass Fruit, or a similar fruit, for it to eat, and it should be able to reach the mid-Royal level in a short time.”

Qiao Sang was both surprised and unsurprised upon hearing this.

Unsurprised because Lu Bao was currently the closest among Ya Bao and the others to the mid-Royal level.

Although Ya Bao evolved to Royal level first and had the most energy after evolution, Lu Bao later consumed the Eternal Ice Potion, which she had already exchanged for, on the starship, significantly increasing her internal energy. Although she didn’t reach the mid-Royal level, she became the closest among Ya Bao and the others.

Surprised because there was actually a fruit that could allow Lu Bao to reach the mid-Royal level in a short time.

It’s true that Lu Bao was the closest to the mid-Royal level, but according to the data in the Beast Taming Manual, it should still take about a year. And judging from the teacher’s words, fruits like the Ice Glass Fruit didn’t seem too difficult to obtain.

“Can I buy them on the market?” Qiao Sang asked.

“Sometimes,” Serai said. “It depends on luck. Anyway, in the Ice Kingdom, there’s always at least one time a year when these resources will be available on the market.”

The Ice Kingdom, the country that manages ice-type pets, is known as one of the three coldest countries on Tianyuan Star.

He paused and added,

“Perhaps you can watch some competitions; some competitions offer these as prizes.”

Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up, and he asked, “What kind of competitions offer such generous prizes?”

This time, it was Michaela who answered: “The competition isn’t important; what’s important is the country. Either it’s a country that has these specialty tree fruits, in which case any competition might offer these resources as prizes, or it’s a pet country that doesn’t need these tree fruits at all, such as one of the ten hottest countries. In that case, ice-related resources, even those at the royal level, might appear in various competitions.”

Qiao Sang paused for a moment: “Shouldn’t ice-type resources be even scarcer in the hottest countries?”

“Strictly speaking, we’re talking about pet-type countries within the hottest countries,” Michaela said. “These pet-type countries are mainly inhabited by fire-type pets or pets that can withstand heat. For them, ice-type materials are dispensable, so even if they’re scarce, they’re willing to use them as prizes or sell them directly.”

Seri couldn’t help but add:

“However, these kinds of countries are unlikely to have any decent ice-type resources. If you want rare ice-type resources, you still have to go to countries like the Ice Kingdom, which have many ice-type pets.”

Got it. Lu Bao needs resources from ice-type pet-type countries, Ya Bao needs resources from fire-type pet-type countries, and Xiao Xunbao needs resources from ghost-type pet-type countries. However, these countries are mostly inhabited by pets of the same type, so the competition should be fierce. Fortunately, she’s not afraid of competition the most. Qiao Sang looked at Teacher Michaela:

“Teacher, should we go to the Ice Kingdom next?”

Michaela took a sip of her drink and smiled:

“Okay, we’ll head over once Steel Treasure emerges from the energy pool.”

An hour later.

Hotel, suite.

“DeDe.”

“DeDe.”

Degogas put away its testing equipment, patted its chest, and barked twice to assure everyone that it was confident it now had a thorough understanding of Sharara’s physical data. It handed over the Poison-Locking Fruit to it, saying it would analyze the fruit’s grade and energy content to provide the most precise recommended ingredients.

With that, it picked up the Poison-Locking Fruit that had been placed on the coffee table.

“Shasha,”

Sharara said, a pained expression on her face.

It understood; this fruit would have to be eaten with other ingredients.

“Thank you, thank you for your help this time,” Qiao Sang said gratefully.

On her way back, she dialed Degogas’s number, and to her surprise, he answered instantly and was even willing to come directly for the examination—his efficiency was comparable to that of Professor Jacqueline.

“Dede,”

Degogas smiled and called out, indicating it wasn’t a bother.

“Xunxun?”

Little Xunbao floated to its left and called out curiously, suggesting that it hadn’t been long since the last examination; hadn’t it obtained accurate data last time?

Degogas pretended not to hear this.

“Qingqing?”

Qingbao floated to its right and called out, implying that it just wanted to pet Xia Bao a little more, right?

“Dede.”

Degauss’s eyelids twitched, finally ceasing its pretense of not hearing, and it called out seriously, indicating that even after a day, the energy and the proportion of each attribute energy within Xia Lala’s body would change, and it just felt it needed to be cautious, which was why it came again.

If that’s the case, by the time you provide the precise matching materials, and by the time I get my hands on those materials, it will take at least a day. During that day, wouldn’t Xia Bao’s energy also change? Qiao Sang thought to herself, but outwardly said seriously,

“It’s really troublesome for you to come and check.”

“Dede.”

Degauss called out, indicating it wasn’t troublesome at all, it was happy to do so.

After saying that, its phone vibrated.

Degauss took it out, glanced at it, then put it down, calling out,

“Dede?”

Could you please take me back?

“Of course.” Qiao Sang said, looking at Little Treasure Hunter.

Yuan Kingdom and Yao Kingdom are close by, so even without using Spray Jia Mei, Little Treasure can travel directly between the two countries. This time, it was Little Treasure who went to pick up De Gao Jia Si.

“Xun Xun~”

Before its Beastmaster could speak, Little Treasure understood the meaning in its eyes. Its eyes glowed blue, and it disappeared with De Gao Jia Si.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala looked dejected. The flower bud on its neck drooped like a wilted flower, and it no longer emitted a fragrance.

“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang noticed its strange mood immediately and asked.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala called out honestly, indicating that eating was painful.

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment and smiled, “I told you not to eat too much at every meal. Just eat until you’re six or seven tenths full.”

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala called out, indicating that it still wanted to eat.

Qiao Sang pondered for a moment, then said, “Then you eat. I’ll find you a ‘Skin-Reducing’ dog. No matter how much you eat, you won’t feel full.”

To be honest, she originally didn’t want to find a “Skin-Reducing” dog, but since Xia Bao was eating so painfully, it was better to find one. By the time they left Tianyuan Star, Xia Bao would definitely have evolved again, and its appetite would have increased, so it probably wouldn’t need a “Skin-Reducing” dog anymore.

Michaela chimed in, “I told you we should find a ‘Skin-Reducing’ dog.”

“Xia Xia?”

Xia Lala’s eyes suddenly lit up. Ignoring Michaela, it looked at Qiao Sang and called out, indicating, “Really?”

“Of course it’s true.” Qiao Sang smiled and patted its head.

“Xia Xia~”

Xia Lala cheered up again, revealing a sweet smile, and called out.

At the same time, the flower bud on its neck swayed, releasing its fragrance again.

Michaela: “…”

Wasn’t this my suggestion? Why isn’t it paying attention to me?

Michaela watched the interaction between Josang and Sharara with a slight unease. Then, she thought of something and said,

“I’ll handle finding the ‘skin-removing’ thing.”

“Then I’ll trouble you, teacher,” Josang said.

“Xiaxia,” Sharara called sweetly to Michaela.

Michaela felt relieved and smiled, “What trouble? This is what I should do.”

It was 6:50 PM.

“Xunxun~”

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao appeared out of thin air in the living room with a Locked Poison Fruit, calling out twice.

“Degagas said this needs to be used with two and a half Wood Lotus Fruits?” Josang confirmed after hearing this.

Wood Lotus Fruit, a tree fruit for Grass-type pets, can greatly increase Grass-type energy. It’s expensive and considered a luxury resource for low-level Grass-type pets.

“Xiaxia,” Sharara said with a pained expression.

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao nodded.

Josang immediately took out her phone and searched for nearby shops selling tree fruit resources.

Magnolia fruits are basically available for purchase; they’re not particularly rare materials.

During the search, Michaela, Penjami, and a pet beast with white and blue fur, roughly one meter in size, with two ball-shaped ears and a similarly ball-shaped tail, appeared out of thin air.

“Found Xiaoxiaopi,” Michaela said.

“Xiaxia!” Xia Lala’s eyes lit up as she looked at the white and blue pet beast. (End of Chapter)
