Beast taming, starting from zero point-Chapter 84 - 80: Spirit Plant Master

Chapter 84: Chapter 80: Spirit Plant Master

“Tooth?”

The Fire-Toothed Dog tilted its head, quite puzzled by its little brother’s actions.

“Xun~”

The little Treasure-seeking Ghost sweetly called out to the wind sculpture.

The wind sculpture didn’t know the Treasure-seeking Ghost but recognized Qiao Sang.

As a member of the order keepers in Qitang Town, it was familiar with the behavior of the Treasure-seeking Ghost.

...

People often tried to bribe it with food or drink, but it had always righteously refused.

But the creature in front of it was its master’s sister’s Pet Beast, which by rounding up, sort of made them family.

Should it accept the gesture to give face…

The wind sculpture felt conflicted.

It glanced at the small bottle of milk in front of it.

To call this bribery seemed a bit shabby; it had weaned off milk at the age of three…

This must simply be a friendly gesture.

What ill intentions could a little one with milk to spare have?

The wind sculpture quickly came to terms with it.

“Feng xiou.”

It slightly spread its huge wings, lowered its head, and used its beak to pop the milk bottle cap off with the help of the little Treasure-seeking Ghost’s claw.

Then it picked up the bottle with its mouth and guzzled down the full bottle of milk in one go.

Catching the empty bottle with its wing, the wind sculpture gave the little Treasure-seeking Ghost a friendly smile.

“Xun.”

The little Treasure-seeking Ghost, seeing the milk finished, happily called out.

It then pointed at and gestured toward the wind sculpture’s tail.

“Xun.”

“Xun Xun.”

“Xun.”

A gust of wind blew by, and the wind sculpture remained as rigid as a statue in its place.

So this was the little one’s idea all along!

It hastily stepped back, shaking its head like a rattle-drum.

“Xun Xun!”

“Xun!”

The little Treasure-seeking Ghost pointed at the empty bottle still held by the wind sculpture.

The wind sculpture stood there dumbfounded, struggling within itself.

Its master had told it that as a public servant, it mustn’t casually take others’ belongings, or it could be reported.

If it got reported, its master’s job might be at risk…

The wind sculpture hesitated for a long while, then extended its wing to the back.

“Feng xiou!!!”

Qiao Sang and Ye Ranran, who were in conversation, got startled and turned to see the tearful wind sculpture and the innocent-faced little Treasure-seeking Ghost.

The Fire-Toothed Dog watched the whole process with its eyes wide open.

Its inner world was filled with unprecedented confusion.

So, this was also an option…

…

Qiao Sang’s old house wasn’t in the center of the town but was located near the water trade route by the Liu Gan Stream.

The houses here weren’t tall buildings; they were all old homes with courtyards.

The mountains were beautiful, the water was pure, and the air was fresh, but it was inconvenient for take-out delivery or any other services.

Her eldest uncle made some money a few years back and renovated the old house, making it look rather grand among the adjacent homes.

After dropping Qiao Sang off at the old house, Ye Ranran suggested they go together to check on the blind date.

Qiao Sang decisively refused.

Wasn’t that just asking her to be a third wheel?

Her third aunt had already cleaned up the room Qiao Sang used to stay in.

After simply settling in her stuff, Qiao Sang went to visit her grandparents.

The old couple weren’t in good health, so they rarely walked around outside.

Her grandmother used to be quite domineering, but had become much more amiable with age.

If it had been earlier, seeing such an uncontrollable Pet Beast, she might have picked up a shoe to chase and beat it.

Now, she merely smiled and made small talk.

Her grandfather was a proud man in his youth and participated in many competitions big and small.

After entering a C-grade Secret Realm deemed dangerous by the Alliance, his originally contracted Pet Beast had perished there.

Upon returning, dispirited, he gave up his previous ambitions and settled in Qitang Town to marry and start a family.

They say his strong Flying Owl could have escaped on its own, but it chose to bravely hold back the enemy to save its master and ultimately lost its life.

Grandpa looked at the Fire-Toothed Dog and Treasure-seeking Ghost surrounding Qiao Sang, and after a long silence, he only said to take good care of them.

…

After lunch, Qiao Sang took the Fire-Toothed Dog and the little Treasure-seeking Ghost to the yard, wanting to carry out a carefree training session.

But when she saw the yard filled with all kinds of flowers, vegetables, and fruits, she was stumped.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.

Was the yard always like this…

Just then, her third aunt came over with a watering can and said with a smile after seeing Qiao Sang standing there dumbfounded, “What do you think? Isn’t it beautiful?”

Regaining her senses, Qiao Sang asked, “Third Aunt, when were all these planted?”

Beaming with pride, the third aunt said, “Didn’t your sister Jing Wen want to apply for the South Botanical University to become a Spirit Plant Master? Your uncle brought these specially from outside for her to study.”

Qiao Sang: “…”

Spirit Plant Masters are professionals responsible for cultivating plants that contain energy.

The third aunt has two kids, and Ye Jing Wen is her younger daughter. When she was 15, she did not awaken her brain domain.

Being born in an ordinary family without a single Beast Tamer meant she would have hardly any chance to learn about Pet Beasts, but in the Ye Family, there were quite a few Beast Tamers, allowing Ye Jing Wen to continue accessing knowledge about Pet Beasts.

Normally, to apply for universities with majors related to Pet Beasts, one must be a Beast Tamer.

The same goes for the Spirit Plant major.

However, there is another route through independent recruitment.

Independent recruitment has always been predominantly professional, which also gives some hope to those who are not Beast Tamers.

Due to household registration issues, Ye Jing Wen attended high school in Qitang Town, and she just finished her second year of high school and was stepping into her third.

Having a goal now, it was natural to start thinking about the independent recruitment after one year.

“Where is sister Jing Wen? Why didn’t I see her at lunch?” Qiao Sang asked.

“She went to a teacher’s house for tutoring. The teacher lives in the town. It’s inconvenient to travel back and forth, so she ate there,” the third aunt replied.

Such a nerd…

Qiao Sang couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

It seemed that the yard was even less suitable for training than the green space downstairs of the apartment complex…

The plants in the apartment complex are ordinary, whereas these are all Spirit Plants…

This must have cost a fortune…

…

Willow Gan Stream.

Only about one kilometer away from the old house, this place is quiet; you could stay for twenty minutes without seeing a soul.

“Yaobao, use Doppelganger first, then release Flame Vortex until there’s hardly any energy left inside you,” Qiao Sang instructed.

The Fire-Toothed Dog nodded and started training proficiently.

Little Treasure-seeking Ghost watched curiously from the side.

Qiao Sang took out her phone, preparing to track the number of attempts in her notes.

The purpose of this training session was not to increase the proficiency of Flame Vortex but to test how many times the Fire-Toothed Dog could release Flame Vortex with its full energy.

After recording Flame Vortex, she still needed to record the release frequency of Spark, Blazing Charge, and other skills.

By doing this, she could effectively observe what kind of skills the Fire-Toothed Dog’s energy could support releasing.

It would also give her a clear understanding of the Fire-Toothed Dog’s limits in future battles.

Soon the Fire-Toothed Dog was drained of energy.

Looking at the Fire-Toothed Dog gasping for air, the little Treasure-seeking Ghost skillfully removed a ring, took out a bottle of milk, and passed it over.

The Fire-Toothed Dog’s body stiffened, it stepped back, and then trotted up to its own Beast Tamer.

“Flame Tooth.”

The longing was evident in the Fire-Toothed Dog’s eyes.

Understanding the plea, Qiao Sang took a bottle of milk out of her backpack, opened it, and handed it over.

Only then did the Fire-Toothed Dog take it and began to drink at ease.

“Spark?”

The little Treasure-seeking Ghost tilted its head in confusion.

It didn’t understand why everything seemed fine in the morning, but now it had changed.

Qiao Sang did not notice the undercurrent flowing between the two Pet Beasts.

She was busy making notes.

The Fire-Toothed Dog could create Doppelganger 7 times, releasing Flame Vortex a total of 56 times.

But Flame Tooth required less flame than Flame Vortex did, yet the energy it consumed turned out to be even more demanding.

Qiao Sang didn’t ponder long.

Flame Tooth had already reached a minor level of proficiency, whereas Flame Vortex was still at an expert level.

The higher the proficiency, the greater the power and the more energy consumed; there was nothing surprising about this.

Just as Qiao Sang figured this out, her phone rang. She answered with a casual, “Hello, Mom.”

“Daughter, did you give the specialties to your aunt and grandma?”

“I did.”

“What about Auntie Wang?”

Qiao Sang: “…”
