Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1541.5

1541. Chapter 1535 Michaela and the Entanglement of the Wishless (Part 2)

Those beast tamers who have the qualifications to register for the S-rank professional beast tamer assessment are already at the very top of the beast tamer pyramid. Therefore, as long as one has the qualifications to register, there is no possibility of failing the assessment; it’s just a matter of how long it takes to pass.

Qiao Sang had some prior knowledge of the S-rank professional beast tamer assessment, but she was still a little worried and asked, “Are you sure there won’t be any problems? Lu Bao has only just evolved into an Emperor-level beast. Will I be given a mission to expel a race with an Emperor-level pet beast?”

Upon hearing this, Penjia Mei and Jiu Bu Gu both glanced at their respective beast tamers.

Mikaela said without changing her expression, “Even if you are, it doesn’t matter. The S-rank professional beast tamer assessment missions have a year to complete. If you can’t complete it, you can register again next year. You’ll complete it sooner or later.”

A year’s time made Qiao Sang’s heart flutter.

With her rate of progress, her strength would definitely improve significantly in a year. By then, Gang Bao should have fully evolved into an Emperor-level pet beast, greatly increasing the probability of completing the mission.

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang nodded and said,

“I understand.”

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a “knock knock” on the door.

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao teleported over immediately, poked its head out to look around, then crawled back in and opened the door.

Wuyuan Xuzhu walked in, nodded slightly to Little Xunbao, ignored its own beast tamer, and focused its gaze precisely on Xia Bao before looking at Qiao Sang and calling out,
“Wuwu.”

Good morning.

Michaela and Jiu Bugu looked at Wuyuan Xuzhu with surprise.

Penjiamei looked at Xia Bao, then at Qiao Sang, seemingly lost in thought.

“Good morning,” Qiao Sang greeted, then asked, “Have you eaten? Want to eat together?”

“Wuwu,”

Wuyuan Xuzhu called out, indicating it had eaten.

Saying this, it went to the table, placed the box it had been carrying in front of Xia Bao, and called out again,
“Wuwu.”

This was the breakfast it had prepared for Xia Lala.

Qiao Sang looked at the box, its first thought being: It actually prepared breakfast! Sure enough, any pet beast that recognizes Xia Lala will instinctively be kind to it.

However, a second thought immediately occurred to her: Wait a minute, the Wishless Void Lord is a pet beast of Tianyuan Star, why is it being so nice to Xia Lala?
“Xia Xia?”

Xia Bao paused for a moment, pointing to herself.

“Wu Wu.”

The Wishless Void Lord nodded.

Xia Bao opened the box and saw a green tree fruit covered with strange patterns.

Green Grain Fruit is a relatively rare tree fruit that grass-type pet beasts can eat, which can greatly increase and refine the energy in the body. Qiao Sang immediately recognized what the tree fruit was and quickly said:
“This can’t be eaten for breakfast.”

Xia Bao immediately stopped picking up the tree fruit.

“Wu Wu?”

The Wishless Void Lord looked over, showing a puzzled expression, and called out to indicate why. It had specifically asked its grass-type friend, who said that this tree fruit was very popular among grass-type pet beasts.

Qiao Sang explained, “Xia Bao is currently suppressing her evolution, and this Green Grain Fruit can increase a lot of energy, so it’s not suitable for her to eat it now.”

Hearing this, Ting Bao felt a surge of pride and a relieved expression. She thought to herself that her Beastmaster’s training hadn’t been in vain; she knew what it was without even asking that annoying human.

“Wu Wu,”

the Wishless Void Master said with an “Oh, I see” expression, then closed the box, picked it up, and called out, indicating that it would bring something else next time.

After saying this, it walked towards the door. ”

You’ve already brought it, why are you taking it away?” Qiao Sang was taken aback and called out,

“You’re leaving already? Won’t you stay a little longer?”

“Wu Wu,”

the Wishless Void Master called without turning its head, indicating that it had other things to do.

After speaking, it closed the door and left gracefully.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Michaela didn’t say a word, but silently ate her breakfast.

Qiao Sang glanced at Teacher Michaela, then at the closed door, and couldn’t help but ask curiously,

“Teacher, is there some misunderstanding between you and the Wishless Void Lord?”

Michaela was silent for two seconds before saying, “We have no misunderstanding.”

Penjami glanced at her own Beastmaster.

“Jiujiu.”

Jiu Bugu called out, indicating that her Beastmaster had expelled the entire Wishless race, so how could it give her a good look?

Tingbao glanced at Michaela, its face saying “Serves you right.”

Expelled a race? Qiao Sang suddenly realized, “So that pet beast was the Wishless Void Lord!”

She remembered talking before, that Teacher Michaela’s professional Beastmaster assessment task was to expel a race, but left behind a pet beast egg. Later, it hatched and formed a contract. After participating in the Interstellar Cup, this matter was exposed. After understanding what had happened, the pet beast quarreled with Teacher Michaela and stayed on Tianyuan Star.

So this pet beast was the Wishless Void Lord. No wonder she always felt the atmosphere between it and Teacher Michaela was strange
. “Jiujiu.”

Jiu Bugu nodded.

Michaela remained silent.

Qiao Sang pondered and said, “I think we can talk about this properly. After all, banishing the race was a task given during the professional beast tamer assessment, and you didn’t want it to happen.”

Michaela recalled the past and sighed, “The Wishless Void Lord isn’t the type to have a good talk.”

“Probably not.” Qiao Sang analyzed, “If it were really angry about this, I think it would forcibly break the contract. Even if you summoned it this time, it wouldn’t help. But it stayed. I think it still cares about you.”

Penjia Mei glanced at Qiao Sang and nodded silently, agreeing wholeheartedly.

Michaela smiled wryly, “With my current brain capacity, forcibly breaking the contract would cause irreversible damage to it. It has no desire to increase its strength and gain a foothold in the Beast Taming Alliance, so it wouldn’t do something so foolish. As for it staying…”

She looked at Xia Bao and continued,
“I think it’s for Xia Lala.”

“Xia Xia?”

For me? Xia Bao looked puzzled.

For Xia Bao? Qiao Sang glanced at Xia Bao, equally puzzled, and was about to ask.

Michaela abruptly changed the subject, saying, “When Seri Charamba comes, have him examine Xia Bao as well. If his energy reaches the intermediate limit, we can arrange for his evolution as soon as possible.”

Jo Sang hesitated, her first reaction being disapproval: “Have him examine Xia Bao? What if he recognizes him?”

Michaela looked at her seriously, “The reason we didn’t let the school’s breeders examine Xia Bao, and we didn’t let anyone at the school know about Xia Bao’s existence, was mainly because you hadn’t formed a contract yet. Now that you have, there’s no need to worry about others knowing about Xia Bao’s existence.”

Jo Sang was still somewhat worried: “What if—”

Michaela seemed to know what she was going to say and interrupted with a smile, “An 18-year-old S-rank Beastmaster, as long as they have a brain, won’t try to take advantage of Xia Lala again.”

Jo Sang’s heart skipped a beat.

Michaela continued, “I think Xia Bao probably doesn’t want to live outside disguised as other pets.”

Jo Sang looked at Xia Bao and found that Xia Bao was also looking at her, with an expectant expression.

“I understand,” Jo Sang nodded without further hesitation.

“Xiaxia!”

Xia Bao immediately showed a happy expression and called out.
“Qingqing.”

Qingbao called out happily from the side, pleased for Xiabao.

“Xunxun?”

Little Xunbao pointed to the variability flower on Xiabao’s head and called out, implying that if transformation wasn’t needed, the flower wouldn’t be necessary.

As it spoke, it reached its paw closer to the variability flower.

“Xiaxia.”

Xiabao leaned back, dodging Little Xunbao’s paw, and called out, indicating that the flower was a gift from Reliroka, and it wanted to keep it.

“Xunxun.”

Little Xunbao withdrew its paw with a disappointed look.

Amidst casual conversation, everyone finished breakfast. Penjame’s eyes glowed blue, and it disappeared from the spot. Not long after

, it appeared in the room with Seri, who was carrying equipment.

He was wearing a heavy down jacket, a hat, and gloves, clearly knowing that he was coming to the Ice Kingdom.

“Ice Saint Asia has evolved? Really?!” Seri looked around excitedly, as if searching for something.

His gaze quickly fell on Lu Bao, his eyes lighting up instantly. He dropped the equipment he was holding, paused for a moment, then, his expression filled with excitement, he slid down to his knees in front of Lu Bao, his face filled with disbelief, reaching out to touch it:
“My God! This, this is the evolved form of Ice Saintia?”

Lu Bao silently took a step back.

Seri seemed to realize he had overreacted, quickly lowering his hand, standing up, and controlling his excitement, saying:

“Sorry, I got a little too excited. I never expected to see Ice Saintia break through its racial limits.”

He then looked at Qiao Sang, eagerly asking:
“Why did Ice Saintia break through its racial limits?”

“I don’t know the specifics either. I wasn’t with Lu Bao at the time. Teacher Michaela probably knows more than I do,” Qiao Sang said.

Seri looked at Michaela expectantly.

Michaela: “…”

What could I possibly know? “I was totally confused when Ice Saintia evolved, okay?” Michael thought to himself, but said calmly, “I think it was the surrounding environment combined with extreme sadness that allowed it to successfully break through its species’ limits.”

Extreme sadness? Serai quickly asked, “What kind of environment?” ”

In a glacier,” Michael replied.

“Glacier, sadness,” Serai murmured, wishing he could get an Ice Saintia right now to experiment on it.

“Don’t forget you’re here to check,” Michael urged, seeing that he hadn’t started yet.

“Sorry, sorry, I was just too excited,” Serai said, turning on the equipment to check Lu Bao.

Lu Bao didn’t flinch, cooperating quietly.

Time slowly passed.

About an hour later, Seri put down the equipment in his hands and sighed,
“Ice Saint Asia’s evolution is perfect. Now, ice energy accounts for nearly 95% of its body, while water energy is negligible. I think that even if it awakens new abilities after this evolution, they will all be related to ice.” Truly worthy

of being a breeder from the Imperial Beast Taming Academy, his prediction was completely correct. Qiao Sang thought to himself, but outwardly agreed, saying,
“I think so too. After Lu Bao’s evolution, the temperature around it has clearly dropped a lot. Even without using any skills, ice crystals sometimes float around its body.”

Seri smiled, “This is a manifestation of a certain level of ice-type physique strength. Some ice-type pets can even freeze the air with their breath without any control.”

So that’s how it is. Qiao Sang thought to himself that he had learned something new.

At this moment, Michaela said, “There’s another pet you need to check.”

“Who?” Seri turned and asked.

“Xia Bao,” Qiao Sang called out.

“Xiaxia.”

Xia Bao floated down from the chair, came to Serui, and called out with a sweet smile.

Serui looked at the pet beast in front of him, stunned at first, feeling that it looked very familiar.

Soon, he realized something, his pupils trembled violently, his mind went blank, his expression was stunned, and his brain went completely blank.

After a long while, Serui came back to his senses, staring straight at the pet beast in front of him, hearing his heart pounding wildly, and stammered:

“Xia…Xia Lala?”

To be honest, he could neither believe his eyes nor his own judgment.

Xia Lala? The magical beast Xia Lala? The savior of Yan Tian Star, Xia Lala?

How could it be here?!
“Xiaxia.”

Xia Bao nodded and called out, indicating that it was him.

“It’s Sharara.” Michaela wasn’t surprised by Serai’s shock, and said calmly, “It’s the one I asked you to examine.”

Serai looked at Michaela and stammered, “S-senpai, how… how did Sharara get here?”

“Because it made a contract with me,” Josang said.

“???”

“!!!”

Serai turned to Josang abruptly, his eyes widening in disbelief.

What did she say? Who made a contract? Who did Sharara make a contract with? Sharara made a contract?

Serai’s mind was a complete mess; he swore he’d never been so confused in his life.

He was so shocked and confused that he even forgot to speak.

“Teacher, can I examine it now?” Josang asked.

Serai came to his senses, still incredulous, and stammered, “You, you say it again, who did Sharara make a contract with?”

“With me,” Josang said.

“How could this be? How could Sharara make a contract with a human?” Serai was dazed and found it hard to accept.

Suddenly, something occurred to him. He looked up sharply, frowning, and said,

“That’s not right. You’ve already contracted six pet beasts.”

“I broke through,” Qiao Sang said succinctly.

Serry: “!!!”

Serry’s mind went blank again, then she snapped back to reality, slapping her forehead, and said, “No, no! I remember you were only 18 years old, weren’t you?”

“I am 18 years old,” Qiao Sang smiled, “I didn’t expect I could break through so quickly either.”

Seri stood frozen, his mind nearly blank.

What…what does this mean?
A breakthrough?
An A-rank Beast Tamer breaking through, meaning becoming an S-rank Beast Tamer.

An 18-year-old S-rank Beast Tamer?

An 18-year-old S-rank Beast Tamer?!

Seri’s brain felt a “boom,” his eyes widening as he stared at the girl before him, utter shock written all over his face. For a moment, he even forgot about Xia Lala’s existence.

An 18-year-old S-rank Beast Tamer…is this…is she really human?!
