Beast taming, starting from zero point

Chapter 124: Chapter 119 Flame Listening Dog

People in the Yuhua Region basically all know that the Fire-Toothed Dog only has one evolutionary path, which is to become a Blazehound.

However, the magnificent-looking Pet Beast in front of them, aside from being the same size as a Blazehound, has no other similarities.

Qiao Sang stared blankly at Yaobao, who had completely changed in appearance.

She might still be a poor student, scoring only the minimum passing marks on her exams.

She didn’t recognize the Sky Manifest Bat, almost mistook the Wan Yan fruit for regular fruit, and wasn’t clear about the Energy Value range for each stage of a Pet Beast.

But if she were to take a test on the Fire-Toothed Dog species, she wouldn’t dare guarantee a perfect 100, but she’d at least score a 90.

The Fire-Toothed Dog is different from the Cotton Caterpillar and other such Pet Beasts with multiple evolutionary paths; from beginner to King Level, it has only one evolutionary path from start to end.

If a Pet Beast acquires a different route during evolution, its subsequent evolutions will all deviate from the original pathway.

For example, the Cotton Caterpillar can evolve into either a Bashe Butterfly or a Badu Butterfly, but the evolutionary form of the Bashe Butterfly is the Snow Wing Patch Butterfly, while that of the Badu Butterfly is the Poison Wing Phoenix Butterfly.

This means all of Yaobao’s future evolutions are now unknown.

Just as Qiao Sang’s thoughts were racing, Yaobao looked at her with eyes curving, and the next second, she excitedly pounced onto her.

“Thump!”

Qiao Sang was instantly knocked to the ground.

Now evolved, Yaobao had grown to about 1.8 meters in size, no longer the small creature she was initially.

“Yaa!”

Excited, Yaobao pounced forward, looking to snuggle in her Beast Tamer’s arms like always.

The next second, its head tilted to one side.

“Yaa?”

How had her Beast Tamer shrunk?

Qiao Sang was entirely pinned underneath, with only her right hand sticking out, desperately struggling: “Ya…bao. Get off, I’m going to be crushed…”

“Yaa!”

Yaobao was startled and quickly got up and off her.

Qiao Sang gasped for air. Damn, she had thought she was a goner!

This enthusiasm was going to be difficult to cope with in the future unless she worked on her physique or reached the level of a D-rank Beast Tamer and received the reciprocation from her Pet Beast.

The people around finally snapped back to reality and found their voices again.

“This isn’t a Blazehound, is it?”

“Are you sure what just evolved was a Fire-Toothed Dog?”

“Am I dreaming? Xiao Liu, can you feel this?”

“Damn! Are you sick? If you want to pinch someone, pinch yourself!

“Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!”

“Amazing! Is this the second evolutionary form of the Fire-Toothed Dog? It’s just too cool!”

“When did the Alliance announce this form? How come I didn’t know about it!”

“Idiot! Look it up online!”

Upon hearing this, the crowd seemed to think it made sense. They were just about to pull out their phones when a familiar voice rang out.

“Everyone out, what are you doing here during work hours?”

The crowd froze, then looked up at the person who had spoken.

Song Yuan looked at them expressionlessly.

“…”

The people quickly evacuated with the speed that could outrun sound.

After the company’s people had left, Song Yuan’s expression changed, her eyes shining as she looked at the noble Pet Beast and said, “Qiao Sang, what is Yaobao’s new evolutionary form called?”

Qiao Sang paused before replying, “I don’t know.”

Song Yuan was taken aback, “Isn’t this a new form?”

“Yes, it’s a new form.” Qiao Sang nodded her head.

Song Yuan was stunned for a long moment: “Why don’t you know the name of the new form?”

Qiao Sang was somewhat confused: “Why would I know the name of the new form?”

The two looked at each other.

Song Yuan stared at Qiao Sang in a daze, then suddenly thought of a possibility, and her hand holding the phone trembled involuntarily.

No way! Could it be that the Alliance hasn’t announced this form?!

Ever since she started focusing on making money and leaving society, she hasn’t been as attentive to the news about pet beasts as before. At most, she would only watch the famous Beast Tamers’ matches to select products to create hit items.

Pet beasts have different evolutionary paths, and some are easier to achieve than others, which is quite normal.

She had always thought that Yaobao’s current evolutionary form was a difficult one to achieve, which was why she never saw it in reality.

But what if this form hasn’t been announced by the Alliance, and Yaobao was the first to evolve into it?

The more Song Yuan thought about it, the more excited she became, her smile growing increasingly maniacal.

Once she confirmed her speculation with her phone, she couldn’t control her facial expression at all.

“Boss Song…” When Qiao Sang saw the way Song Yuan was looking at Yaobao, he subconsciously tried to pull it behind him.

A pull, but unable to move it…

“Don’t call me Boss Song, it feels distant. If you don’t mind, just call me Sister Song from now on,” Song Yuan said with a beaming smile.

Qiao Sang wasn’t shy: “Sister Song, once the video is done, I have to get back to school. I’ll be joining the training session at school, so could you please let me know about the next shoot two days in advance, so I can ask for leave?”

“Sure thing, it isn’t easy to leave when you’re on a school training session, don’t just ask for leave whenever. About the shooting for the new product, there’s no rush, we only have the design for now and haven’t started production. Just give me a call when you have a day off, and I’ll arrange the shoot for you,” Song Yuan said with a laugh.

Qiao Sang sincerely expressed her thanks.

She knew the principle of “no gain without a reason”; Song Yuan must have seen Yaobao’s potential, which was why she was so agreeable.

But she really did take Qiao Sang’s interests into account in terms of the breach of contract penalty as well as the next photo shoot.

“I’ll send you back to school now,” Song Yuan said, then turned to pick up her bag and go.

Things must not be rushed: the contract was about to expire, and they needed to build a good relationship before bringing up the renewal.

“No need, my teacher is here too. He’ll take me back,” Qiao Sang said.

Before Song Yuan could respond, the Sky Manifest Bat, hearing what Qiao Sang said, waved its paw and made her disappear right before Song Yuan’s eyes.

Song Yuan: “!!!”

…

In the dormitory.

Qiao Sang was on the bed, looking pale.

Teacher Xian’s habit of teleporting people without warning was really unpleasant!

“Yaobao…”

Yaobao stayed by the bed, looking confused.

It wanted to jump up as usual and be with its Beast Tamer, but why did the bed seem to have no place for it?

And its Beast Tamer had become smaller, and the little one was now even smaller than its own head.

“Xunxun.”

The little Treasure-seeking Ghost kept circling around Yaobao.

It had been circling Yaobao just now too, but at that time, everyone’s attention was on Yaobao, and no one noticed it.

Is this what evolution is?

So magical.

The little Treasure-seeking Ghost, tired of circling, came over to its Beast Tamer and called out.

“Xun~”

“Xun Xun~”

It wanted to evolve too~

But Qiao Sang didn’t respond because she was currently looking at the Beast Taming Codex.
