Beast taming, starting from zero point

Chapter 131: 126 Zheng Baolong



Chapter 131: Chapter 126 Zheng Baolong

Evening.

Qiao Sang, after bathing, went to the training ground with Yaobao in tow.

It was the usual 5-centimeter sprint above the ground.

She had just started running when she suddenly thought of something and propped herself up on the soft fur, turning her head to say worriedly,

“Don’t run off into the sky without a sound again this time.”

“Yaobao!”

...

Yaobao agreed cheerfully.

It had no obsession with plucking stars; it was solely because its younger brother liked them. If not allowed to pluck, then it wouldn’t pluck. Training was more important!

Qiao Sang’s mind was put at ease, and she lay back down again.

“Xun~”

Little Treasure-seeking Ghost was perched on its Beast Tamer’s belly, staring unblinkingly at the starry sky.

After spending so much time together, Qiao Sang had a pretty good idea of what the little Treasure-seeking Ghost liked.

It liked pretty things, and those pretty things were always small objects.

Qiao Sang felt it was necessary to give the little Treasure-seeking Ghost some basic knowledge.

But the little Treasure-seeking Ghost wasn’t even a month old yet; explaining the universe, celestial bodies, planets, and the like was far too profound.

After pondering for a moment, Qiao Sang said, “It might look small, but it is actually bigger than Yaobao. It’s just that we’re so far away from it that it seems small.”

“Xun?”

The little Treasure-seeking Ghost blinked in confusion, then turned to look at Yaobao, who seemed immensely large to it.

“Moreover, many of the stars don’t actually shine; if you saw them up close, you’d realize they’re not even as bright as your own eyes,” Qiao Sang continued.

The little Treasure-seeking Ghost tried hard to remember what its own eyes looked like.

It looked up, then down, and after a slight pout, its gaze carried a touch of disdain when it looked up again.

As the little Treasure-seeking Ghost watched the starry sky, it suddenly stretched out a paw and pointed upwards.

“Xun.”

“Xun Xun?”

“We’ll get the chance to see them up close in the future,” Qiao Sang replied.

In an age when humanity had already successfully colonized other planets, it would be a disservice to herself not to take an interstellar trip.

However, that was a matter for many years in the future. Right now, getting into a good university was the real priority.

Qiao Sang’s consciousness entered the Beast Taming Codex. Yaobao’s telekinesis had reached (Proficient 431/500) and was increasing at a rate of 1 point every 30 seconds.

Telekinesis, unlike other skills, could maintain a continuous state of release so long as the energy was kept in circulation.

Gaining 1 point of proficiency every 30 seconds, the speed of progression was incredibly fast.

If Yaobao could maintain its telekinesis for 24 hours, it could gain 2,880 proficiency points in one day, and in seven days, its telekinesis could reach the peak of Mystique.

Of course, that was a dream…

It definitely wouldn’t be enough to maintain telekinetic energy for 24 hours.

Excluding training, eating, and sleeping, Yaobao could at most practice telekinesis for 2 to 3 hours a day.

This was, after all, a school, and they had to continue with training during the day; it was not possible to train to the point of exhaustion every day like before.

At home, even if you used up all your energy, you could go back, drink milk, and watch TV to relax a bit.

But there was no TV at school, and Yaobao had nothing else to do in the dormitory except float in place with its telekinesis; that it still managed to train for 2 to 3 hours was entirely due to its novelty and excitement about being able to fly.

However, being on the training ground, where it could move around while using telekinesis, seemed to be better; Yaobao was, after all, a creature that liked to be active.

While Qiao Sang was considering how long to let Yaobao run in the evenings based on the data, she faintly sensed a vibration from the outside world.

Her consciousness returned to reality, and she realized someone was calling her.

It was the vice principal.

Qiao Sang quickly answered the call.

Before she could speak, Liu Yao said, “Qiao Sang, our research project team is all set. Come meet everyone tomorrow.”

Qiao Sang was stunned for a second. Everyone’s here already? That was fast?

Seeming to know what Qiao Sang was thinking, Liu Yao smiled and said, “You don’t have to worry, the research isn’t starting immediately. From the proposal to the project approval, it’ll take at least three months. It’s just that several researchers are interested in this project, so they want to come over and have a look.”

Qiao Sang sighed with relief. She had thought societal efficiency had reached such a terrifying level.

“But, I still have to attend the training camp tomorrow.”

“Don’t worry, it’s in the evening, around 6 o’clock. I’ll have Lao Xian pick you up then.”

Pick me up?

Recalling her past experiences with transportation, Qiao Sang diplomatically said, “Vice Principal, there’s no need to trouble Teacher Xian. Just tell me the location, and I can get there myself.”

“It’s no trouble. Elder Xian is very fast.”

Qiao Sang: “…”

It was precisely because he was too fast, leaving no time for preparation, that she found it inconvenient.

If in the future, Yaobao or Xiao Xunbao could learn Spatial Movement, that would definitely allow her to teleport after making all the necessary preparations.

The next morning at 7:43 AM.

With dark circles under her eyes, Qiao Sang set off for Training Ground No. 5.

She had been so excited about the conversation yesterday, excited to train with the sophomore team, that she had forgotten their training started at 8 AM, a full hour earlier than the freshman team…

Thinking that she would have to sleep one hour less every day from now on, Qiao Sang lost her excitement from the day before.

She arrived at Training Ground No. 5 listlessly. Just as she stepped in, she was greeted by a water cannon about ten centimeters thick.

Qiao Sang was startled and her somewhat groggy mind didn’t react instantly.

Fortunately, Yaobao was quick to react, stepping in front immediately and spraying out a flame three times thicker than the water cannon.

The water cannon instantly retreated several meters and was demolished.

“Bang!”

A loud noise followed, and white steam evaporated into the air above the training field.

“Sorry, sorry! We were training and accidentally misfired our skill. Are you okay?”

A bespectacled boy jogged over, accompanied by a Li Shou Duck.

“Yaobao!”

Yaobao dug in with all four limbs, ready to attack at any moment, its already red eyes turning a deeper shade of anger as it locked onto the culprit responsible for the water cannon.

Seeing this, the boy with glasses immediately stopped in his tracks, staying three meters away, staring blankly at the Pet Beast he had never seen before.

“Li Shou!”

The Li Shou Duck glared and positioned itself in front of its Beast Tamer.

“Guanshou, it’s our fault. Apologize quickly!”

Regaining his composure, the bespectacled boy hurriedly pressed the Li Shou Duck’s head down and bowed himself.

“Li Shou.”

After a moment of struggling expressions, the Li Shou Duck obediently called out.

“I’m fine,” Qiao Sang finally fully woke up.

It wasn’t intentional and the apology was sincere, so naturally, she wasn’t going to make a fuss.

“Yaobao, I’m fine. Come back,” Qiao Sang said.

“Yaobao.”

Yaobao glanced at the still bowing culprit, then looked back to confirm that its Beast Tamer was indeed unharmed, before turning back to its Beast Tamer’s side.

“Xu Yajie, you’re done for. It’s been a week and you still haven’t got the hang of it; you can’t even control it. If Zheng Baolong finds out during today’s inspection, you’re going to…” a crew-cut boy teased from the center of the field.

Meanwhile, from behind Qiao Sang, a voice suppressing anger sounded: “Who are you calling Zheng Baolong?”
