Beast taming, starting from zero point

Chapter 135: Chapter 130: Renting a House

“Because they have entrusted their other Pet Beast to the Pet Beast Training Hall,” Liu Yao replied.

Qiao Sang paused for a moment and asked, “Is it for a long period?”

Liu Yao laughed and said, “Yes, after all, people’s energy is limited. Unless one is a Professional Beast Tamer, it’s basically impossible to take care of multiple Pet Beasts.”

“As students on the school team, you have to spend most of your time training your Pet Beasts. It would be fine if all your time were spent on your Pet Beasts, but you also have to study.”

“This way, it’s very difficult for both Pet Beasts to improve in all aspects, but if you keep one by your side and the other at the training hall, the efficiency will be much higher.”

Qiao Sang nodded her head.

Indeed, when there are multiple Pet Beasts, sometimes they can’t all be taken care of.

If the Pet Beasts are being trained by someone else during class, it’s easy to get ahead of classmates who don’t train in terms of time efficiency.

Moreover, Pet Beasts of different attributes and species have different focal points; some training suitable for certain Pet Beasts may not be suitable for others.

A Treasure-seeking Ghost like Xiao Xunbao is not suitable for physical and speed training. As a Spectral-type Pet, its special trait and the skill of Teleportation are enough to make its whereabouts unpredictable during battle.

Moreover, its movement and evasion rely mainly on energy, not physical strength.

“Do you have any other questions?” Liu Yao asked.

Faced with a knowledgeable expert who was solving her doubts face-to-face, Qiao Sang naturally did not want to waste this opportunity.

On the path of Beast Taming, without someone to guide you, trying to make it far with self-exploration is basically impossible.

Even if you have money and resources, you still need someone to tell you how to use them.

Otherwise, it’s like when she initially had the Wan Yan fruit in front of her and naively thought it was a fruit for people to eat.

Although Qiao Sang had the Golden Finger, if it weren’t for Yaobao’s high natural talent and diligence, and the ability to discuss how to learn skills online, she wouldn’t have made it this far on her own.

Qiao Sang voiced the questions that had been pressing on her mind for the past two days: “I’ve found that Yaobao cannot use Fire Element skills while using Telekinesis, is it because two different attributes’ skills can’t be used at the same time?”

She had searched for answers online for this question.

But the opinions on the internet varied widely; everyone seemed to make sense, and she didn’t know which was the correct answer.

Liu Yao was stumped for a moment, not expecting Qiao Sang to ask this question…

After thinking for a bit, he said, “What you’re referring to is a combination skill. It’s possible, but this usually occurs in doubles matches. If it’s just one Pet Beast using a combination skill, the difficulty is very high.”

“Just considering your Yaobao, let’s not talk about the attribute issue. Do you think it can release a Flame Vortex while also spraying flames at the same time?”

Qiao Sang shook her head: “Of course not, it only has one mouth.”

“Similarly, when a Pet Beast is maintaining a skill, it’s basically impossible for it to use another at the same time,” Liu Yao said with a laugh. “You might consider a different approach. Why do skills have to be used simultaneously? If a Pet Beast can release skills quickly enough, it can definitely combine them into a combo.”

Qiao Sang asked, “But Psychic Series Pet Beasts can use Telekinesis to maintain themselves in the air while also attacking with other skills. Then why can’t they use other skills while controlling someone with Telekinesis?”

“Because using Telekinesis to maintain themselves has already become their instinct,” Liu Yao explained. “When the execution of a skill becomes as simple as breathing, naturally they have the capacity to do other things.”

So that was it…

While Qiao Sang was chatting with Liu Yao, Yaobao had already circled the private room three times.

Where’s the mirror?

What happened to the promised mirror!

…

The project’s research team consisted of nine people.

For some reason, two were absent today. Since the vice principal didn’t inquire further, Qiao Sang naturally didn’t ask either.

Hardly anyone ate. Almost everyone surrounded Yaobao, eyes shining as they bombarded it with questions.

After the meal was over and she was added to the research group, Qiao Sang left the Yuehe Hotel and did not head towards the school.

Because she had someone to meet.

…

Xingtong Street.

Near Shengshui Middle School.

“Are you Miss Qiao?” A young man in his 20s, dressed in a white shirt, flew down on a Fat Jiaju bird.

“That’s me,” Qiao Sang nodded.

“Just call me Xiao Wang. Which of the two houses would you like to see first?” asked the young man.

He glanced subtly at the girl’s pet beast next to her, stunning him and yet unnamed.

“The one from Shitu Road, right?” Qiao Sang said.

That place was closer to Shengshui Middle School, her top choice in her heart.

An hour later, Qiao Sang chose the house on Chang’an Road.

The reason was simple, just two words, affordable…

The house on Shitu Road was 12,000 Alliance Currency a month, while the one on Chang’an Road was only 5,000 Alliance Currency a month…

In terms of size, layout, and decoration, the house on Chang’an Road actually was not much different from the one on Shitu Road; both were around 10,000 Alliance Currency when she first saw them online.

However, for some reason, the landlord changed the listing to urgent two days ago and dropped the price.

Thanks to Xiao Wang’s silver tongue, Qiao Sang naturally ended up renting it.

By the time they signed the rental contract and handed over the keys, it was almost 10 o’clock at night.

Qiao Sang didn’t rush back to school.

She took Yaobao to the pond in the courtyard that she especially liked and smiled, “First, take a look at yourself in the water to make do. The mirrors here aren’t big enough. When we move in tomorrow, I’ll buy a large full-body mirror.”

Yaobao was almost moved to tears.

So you remember!

It thought its Beast Tamer had forgotten!

“Ya!”

Yaobao couldn’t wait and ran to the edge of the pond to look down, and it froze.

Who is this handsome pet beast?!

“Xun~”

The Treasure-seeking Ghost, which had been invisible and lying on Qiao Sang’s head, drifted to the pond and also started looking at its own reflection.

As it watched, it began making faces at its reflection in the water.

“Ya?”

“Ya Ya?”

Yaobao turned its head to look at its Beast Tamer with a serious expression.

Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched before she answered, “That’s right, this super freakishly handsome pet beast is you.”

That adjective must be something it learned from Super Freakishly Hot Grilled Wings…

“Ya!”

Yaobao’s eyes lit up, and it turned its head excitedly to look again.

Three minutes later, Xiao Xunbao grew tired of playing and drifted back onto Qiao Sang’s head, while Yaobao was still indulging in self-admiration.

Ten minutes later, Yaobao was still looking at its reflection.

Qiao Sang: “…”

“Yaobao, that’s enough. The mirror will be clearer tomorrow. Stop looking for now. I have a training exercise I want to try,” Qiao Sang said.

She got this idea from the conversation with the deputy headmaster earlier in the evening.

Although it was late, she just wanted to give it a try, and it wouldn’t take up much time.

“Ya.”

Hearing the word training, Yaobao immediately turned its head, abandoning its vanity.

“First, create a doppelganger,” Qiao Sang directed.

Yaobao complied.

Two identical Flame Listening Dogs appeared by the pond, indistinguishable from each other.

Qiao Sang picked up a stone from the ground and threw it above the pond.

“Have the doppelganger control this stone with telekinesis.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the eyes of the Flame Listening Dog on the left flashed blue, and the stone just hung there, not falling further.

Watching the stone suspended in mid-air, Qiao Sang’s heartbeat quickened. She then said, “Now, try having the original spray Spark at it.”
