Beast taming, starting from zero point-Chapter 36 - 33: See You Next Time

Chapter 36: Chapter 33: See You Next Time

This is a real expert!

People wanted to go up and greet her, but felt a bit embarrassed given that the person in question was a girl.

“Li Yang, did that Lu Liangye really awaken half a year ago? Are you sure you’re not mistaken?” the delicate-looking boy doubted.

“It might be someone with the same name…” Li Yang was also uncertain.

Initially, he knew about Lu Liangye because his mother had shoved a newspaper in front of him to show him, and afterwards, she sighed for days on end wishing Lu Liangye were her son, only calming down after about ten days.

If it really were that Lu Liangye, there’s no way he could have lost so badly.

Thinking about it now, the Lu Liangye in front of him seemed taller than the one in the newspaper, darker and a bit uglier…

At this moment, the Lu Liangye who was suspected of having the same name was anxiously looking at his Rounded Carp, asking, “Teacher, is my Rounded Carp okay?”

“It’s fine, it will recover soon,” Qin Wen answered.

…

From Qiao Sang’s perspective, the only female teacher on the field approached the Rounded Carp and formed a hand seal, lighting up the ground with an orange-yellow Star Array.

This was the mark of a C-rank Beast Tamer.

Of course, it was also possible that she had reached the level of a C-rank Beast Tamer according to the Beast Taming Codex but had not yet passed the Alliance’s assessment to become a certified C-rank Beast Tamer.

An orange-yellow Star Array appeared along with a three-meter-tall white Pet Beast.

Its head was shaped like a water drop, which looked particularly small in proportion to its entire body; it had tiny eyes, its mouth stretched to the base of its ears, and a tongue hanging out that was half the length of its height.

All it did was come up beside the Rounded Carp and licked it from head to tail with its thick long tongue.

That wasn’t enough; after the first lick, it flipped the Rounded Carp over with its tongue and licked it again from head to tail.

Kind of disgusting…

Qiao Sang’s still groggy brain jolted awake completely.

This white Pet Beast was called Tonguey Drip, and the mucus secreted by its tongue could heal external wounds at high speed.

If one aspired to become a doctor in the future, contracting a Tonguey Drip would be an excellent choice.

Under the dual tongue healing of the Tonguey Drip, the Rounded Carp had already stood back up, bouncing twice in place with support from its tail, clearly revived.

If it weren’t for the Rounded Carp looking like it had just been fished out of the water, you would hardly be able to tell that anything had happened to it.

Qiao Sang unconsciously held the Fire-Toothed Dog in her arms a bit tighter.

“Tooth?”

The Fire-Toothed Dog turned its head to look at Qiao Sang.

“It’s nothing, I’m just glad you’re not injured,” Qiao Sang said.

“Tooth～”

The Fire-Toothed Dog’s wet eyes conveyed emotion.

“For the fights to come, you mustn’t get hurt, no matter what,” Qiao Sang seriously instructed.

“Tooth!”

The Fire-Toothed Dog nodded in agreement.

Its own Beast Tamer was so worried about it – it wouldn’t let her down!

As Qiao Sang looked at the touched Fire-Toothed Dog, she held back her last thought.

“If it gets hurt, I’ll stop hugging it…”

…

Ten people were divided into five groups for the competition, four more matches remained.

Qiao Sang looked towards the field, each person might be her next opponent, so she needed to watch carefully.

She was very confident in the Fire-Toothed Dog, but underestimating the enemy was a taboo; she wouldn’t have made the Fire-Toothed Dog wear sunglasses the moment she entered the arena otherwise.

The second group consisted of two boys, with their Pet Beasts already summoned.

One was a Short-tailed Snake, the other a Sand Burrower Mouse, both fairly typical configurations for rookie Beast Tamers.

“Big shot, who do you think will win?” a female voice sounded from the left.

Qiao Sang turned her head to look; the seat that was previously empty now had someone sitting in it, it was the bob-haired girl who had spoken to her earlier.

“If there are no surprises, it should be the Short-tailed Snake,” Qiao Sang replied.

“Big shot, by surprises, do you mean like what happened with you?” Zheng Yining teased.

Like the Rounded Carp’s natural advantage against the Fire-Toothed Dog, the Short-tailed Snake naturally countered the Sand Burrower Mouse, yet the Fire-Toothed Dog won – and it was a crushing victory. That’s what you’d call a surprise, isn’t it?

“My name is Qiao Sang,” she introduced herself, wanting to change the way she was addressed.

“All right, Qiao Big Shot,” Zheng Yining nodded in acknowledgement.

Qiao Sang: “…”

“Big Boss Qiao, my name is Zheng Yining.” Zheng Yining continued.

Qiao Sang: “…Hmm.”

The outcome of the match did not come as a surprise, just as Qiao Sang had said.

At the moment the sand rat burrowed out of the ground, the short-tailed snake’s fangs accurately struck, causing the sand rat to faint.

The third match was between Zheng Yining and a boy.

Zheng Yining’s pet beast was a Long-Eared Cat.

Its back and tail were pale pink, only its belly was creamy white; its ears, longer than those of an ordinary rabbit, stood like two antennas on each side; its gemstone-green eyes lazily squinted, nearly melting the few girlish emotions Qiao Sang had.

The boy’s was a Soaring Pig, with a grey-white body and a pair of equally grey-white wings on its fat body, a pet beast with both Ground Type and Flight Type attributes.

“Fire-Toothed Dog, who do you think will win?” Qiao Sang asked.

The Fire-Toothed Dog had been comfortably watching the match, but upon hearing the conversation, its expression sharpened as it seriously surveyed the two pet beasts already fighting.

After some thought, it chose the Soaring Pig, which looked bigger and could fly.

Sixteen minutes later, the Soaring Pig lay on the ground, unable to rise.

“Tooth.”

The Fire-Toothed Dog uttered in frustration.

It had misjudged.

“Although the Soaring Pig you chose looks stronger, it has an obvious weakness: it lacks stamina. Plus, its speed is slow. As long as one wears it down slowly, it will run out of energy over time. You see, the Long-Eared Cat chose to dodge its moves at the start and waited until the Soaring Pig was exhausted before launching its attack,” Qiao Sang analyzed for the Fire-Toothed Dog.

“Tooth.”

The Fire-Toothed Dog’s eyes widened as it listened.

So that’s how it was!

The victors of the fourth and fifth matches were two boys, with pet beasts being a Chubby Pigeon and a Tracker Bee, respectively.

Qiao Sang recalled the matches she had just watched and considered the opponents she might face next.

Indeed… not much of a threat…

Qiao Sang quickly shook her head as she realized her thoughts.

I had just promised not to underestimate anyone…

One more person had to be decided from the five who lost in the arena.

The competition did not last as long as Qiao Sang had expected; the five advancements were decided in one-sided matches.

The victor was Lu Liangye.

Now, Li Yang no longer doubted that this Lu Liangye was the same Lu Liangye his mother had talked about.

The synergy and maneuvers completely overwhelmed the other four, not at all suggesting the one-sided defeat from the first match.

It seemed the problem lay with that girl…

Li Yang glanced at the casually approaching girl and prayed silently.

Please don’t let me face her first!

I still want to make it into the top three!

As soon as Qiao Sang arrived in the arena, Lu Liangye came over and threw down a challenge, “Next time I face you, I won’t lose!”

Qiao Sang cooperated nicely, “I hope so.”

Lu Liangye: “…”

He felt she was looking down on him, but he had no evidence.

Just like last time, they drew lots with the same numbers pairing up into teams.

Qiao Sang drew her lot and looked at it; it was number 1.

The number was quite good.

Auspicious.

“Who is number 1?” Qin Wen asked.

“Me.” The person who spoke was Lu Liangye.

“And me.” Qiao Sang said.

Everyone looked over.

Lu Liangye: “…!”

Although he said next time, it did not have to be so soon!
