Beast taming, starting from zero point-Chapter 195 - 185: Lost Pet Notice
Chapter 195 -185: Lost Pet Notice
Qiao Sang was somewhat dumbfounded by her first experience as a sparring partner.
Fortunately, she had asked the front desk lady and found out that even if the sparring session didn’t start on time, her wages wouldn’t be deducted.
From this perspective, although the Hongying Beast Battle Club wasn’t very large, its system was quite humane.
…
When she got home, Qiao Sang immediately summoned Yaobao.
“Ya!”
As soon as Yaobao appeared, it happily rubbed its head against Qiao Sang.
By now, Yaobao had gotten used to occasionally staying in the Beast Taming Codex, but no matter how many times it came out, it always had the excitement of its first time.
Qiao Sang stroked Yaobao’s fluffy head and suddenly said, “I’ll take you to dye your fur.”
“Ya Ya!” Yaobao stepped back abruptly and shook its head desperately.
How could she lay a hand on its handsome fur!
“But without changing your style, it’s hard for you to accompany me out with your handsome looks,” Qiao Sang said.
When Yaobao was still a Fire-Toothed Dog, people would keep their distance on the bus.
Now that it had evolved into a Flame Listening Dog, although it was still a Fire Attribute Beast and didn’t have its Psychic Series attributes widely known, people’s attitude toward it had not only done a complete 180 but also was more enthusiastic than that for other Pet Beasts’ new evolutionary forms.
The reasons behind this, aside from the fact that the Flame Listening Dog was the Fire-Toothed Dog’s latest evolutionary form, also had a lot to do with its looks.
When another evolutionary form of the Golden Tendril vine, the Withered Tendril vine, first came out, people’s shared photos were mostly taken from a distance, rather than eagerly taking close-up selfies like with the Flame Listening Dog.
Sometimes the world of beauty standards is just that pragmatic.
“Ya…”
Yaobao looked helpless. Was dyeing its fur really necessary?
“Xun~”
At that moment, Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost spread its paws, indicating that not dyeing its fur wasn’t a big deal.
“Ya.” Yaobao turned its head and looked at Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost with anticipation.
I’ve got no solution, what could you, a month-old little thing, possibly have… Qiao Sang raised an eyebrow and said, “Do you have any ideas?”
“Jie jie jie…”
Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost didn’t answer right away but covered its mouth, letting out a demonic laugh and giving off a bit of a villain vibe.
Qiao Sang stared blankly for a while when she heard this laugh.
She hadn’t expected Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost could make such a sound…
When Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost had laughed enough, it called out to its Beast Tamer.
“Xun Xun~”
It wouldn’t say now but would let her know the next morning.
Good fellow, now it was playing mysterious… Qiao Sang laughed and said, “But the past few mornings, you haven’t been able to wake up.”
“Ya.”
Yaobao nodded, confirming that indeed it was so.
Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost’s expression immediately froze.
“Xun…”
It struggled for a while and then called out, promising it would definitely get up the next morning.
“Okay, then tomorrow it’s up to you,” Qiao Sang said, not really believing Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost had any good ideas but still affirming it.
After saying that, she was ready to head to the bathroom to wash up before going to sleep.
“Xun Xun!”
Having taken only a few steps, Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost teleported in front of Qiao Sang and called out.
Qiao Sang looked at it with confusion and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Xun Xun~” Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost coquettishly twisted and gestured at its own head.
Did she remember the gaming helmet she had promised to let it play with?
Qiao Sang: “…”
…
The next morning, when Qiao Sang woke up, she found that Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost was indeed awake, and on its left cheek, there was a tic-tac-toe-shaped scar drawn with black pen.
And Yaobao was staring at it with a face full of curiosity.
Originally, Qiao Sang thought Xiao Xunbao the Treasure-seeking Ghost had drawn a scar on its face for fun, until they went out.

On the way to school.
Yaobao lifted its head and strutted down the street with pride, as Qiao Sang almost burst into tears of joy while sitting on its back.
She never imagined that happiness could come so suddenly!
There was no need to alter its appearance with a dye job nor wait until the Flame Listening Dog’s popularity waned; Yaobao could walk the streets unimpeded and in broad daylight.
“Xun Xun!”
Today, little Xiao Xunbao didn’t choose to be invisible; instead, it made its presence known atop Qiao Sang’s head, occasionally baring its cute but menacing expression to any passersby who tried to approach.
Passersby dared not make eye contact, uniformly quickening their pace to distance themselves.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but inwardly wonder why she hadn’t thought of this sooner.
Although the little Treasure-seeking Ghost didn’t look the least bit scary, the fearsome reputation of Spectral-type Pets was well known – few people wanted to catch the attention of a Spectral Pet.
In places where Spectral Pets were present, aside from Professional Beast Tamers, the general attitude of most people was to stay as far away as possible.
The little Treasure-seeking Ghost really had a good head on its shoulders…
Qiao Sang began to enjoy the surrounding scenery with a lightened heart.
Suddenly, an advertising airship passing overhead caught her attention.
Qiao Sang leisurely looked up.
In the past, she had to watch the road and rush for time; how could she afford to care about the ads on the airship’s screen? But now it was different; she had all the time in the world to watch.
“We interrupt for a pet-finding announcement: At 20:12 last night, a female Crowned Cat went missing around the ancient northern mansion. Standing 35 centimeters tall, the cat was wearing a wavy wide-brimmed straw hat and a pair of black cat-shaped sunglasses. The last footage captured showed it with a cheese-colored boxy bag.”
“Current whereabouts unknown; the person who provides accurate information will be rewarded 200,000, and the person who escorts it home will be personally rewarded 1,000,000. Contact Wang Yiding at the following number…”
The airship gradually drifted away.
Qiao Sang, who was still deep in thought on Yaobao’s back, broke her silence after a while and asked, “Xiao Xunbao, did you just see that?”
“Xun!”
Xiao Xunbao nodded vigorously.
It had seen it!
Someone had just stealthily taken a photo!
Qiao Sang murmured, “So, I didn’t see it wrong, the Crowned Cat that came for sparring with us yesterday was the same one on the airship’s screen just now…”
“Xun?”
Xiao Xunbao tilted its head to the side, confused.
What is its Beast Tamer talking about? It didn’t understand.
“So, I just missed out on a million yesterday…” Qiao Sang muttered to herself in a daze.
A million… A million! My goodness, what had she missed out on yesterday?!
Qiao Sang roared inwardly.
She had thought it odd that a Beast Tamer would be so careless as to let a Crowned Cat wander alone outside!
Turns out, it had run away on its own!
Qiao Sang’s intestines were turning green with regret, her previously good mood gone without a trace.
No, that’s not right! Whoever provides accurate information – a reward of 200,000!
Qiao Sang snapped back to reality.
She still had a chance at 200,000!
That’s right, the contact person was Wang Yiding, but what was the number again…
Qiao Sang’s mind spun at high speed, her blood boiling.
Unbeknownst to her, her brain cells were abnormally active, with numerous light spots gathering into her Beast Taming Codex.
The images in her mind began to rewind.
“…The last footage captured showed it carrying a cheese-colored boxy bag. Current whereabouts unknown; the person who provides accurate information will be rewarded 200,000, and the person who escorts it home will be personally rewarded 1,000,000. Contact Wang Yiding, phone number 1390000…”
Right at that moment, the vibration of her cellphone interrupted Qiao Sang’s recollection.
Dammit! Who’s the jerk calling at a time like this?
Qiao Sang angrily pressed the answer button.
“Who’s this?”
“Hello, is this Miss Qiao Sang? This is Wang Yiding. I received information that you helped a Crowned Cat in a practice match at Hongying Beast Battle Club last night.”
“That Crowned Cat is actually my Pet Beast. It ran away from home after a quarrel with me yesterday. Did it say anything to you during the match? Do you know where it might have gone afterward?”
“Could you please tell me? I am very anxious.”
“Hello, Miss Qiao Sang? Are you there?”
“Hello? Hello?”
