Beast Taming Starts from Zero

a bolt from the blue!

Little Treasure Hunter froze instantly.

After a few seconds, it suddenly realized what was happening, took a step back, and cried out in a trembling voice:
"Search?"

The subject needs to be trained for three more hours?
Qiao Sang laughed and said, "If you don't want to train for three more hours, then let Tingbao accumulate more than 200 points every day."

"Xunxun..." Little Xunbao cried out, his expression changing drastically.

200 points a day? That's way too difficult...

Qiao Sang continued to smile: "Then you can train for three more hours every day in your main body."

Tingbao accumulates more than 200 points every day, and Xiao Xunbao trains for three more hours every day... Xiao Xunbao quickly calculated in his mind.

The sixth brother has to fight every day. If he keeps looking for opponents, it's not impossible for him to accumulate more than 200 points every day. Meanwhile, his own stand is training every day. If he takes the sixth brother out to find opponents to fight, and then his own body has to train for three hours afterward, that would be too miserable.

Sixth brother, I'm so sorry... Little Treasure Hunter finished his mental calculations, looked indecisive, and called out:
"Searching..."

It will try its best to ensure that the sixth child accumulates more than 200 points every day...

"Tooth."

Ya Bao listened to the conversation and called out, "Why don't we do both? After you finish accumulating 200 points with Ting Bao every day and return home, the main body can train for another three hours."

In its view, training is the important thing, and if it is willing to spend more time and effort every day, it can accomplish both of the two things its beast tamer mentioned.

"Xunxun?!"

Little Treasure Hunter looked at Tooth Treasure in disbelief and exclaimed.

Are you a devil? !

"Ya?"

Ya Bao looked puzzled and called out, indicating that a devil was something else.
Gangbao, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

"Qingqing~"

Qingbao was very happy and nodded repeatedly, exclaiming in full agreement.

It felt this idea was great.

The surrounding wind also became lighter, just like its mood.

"Search!"

Little Treasure seeker cast a pleading look at his beast tamer.

Ya Bao is even more ruthless than me... Qiao Sang coughed and said, "Let's do it my way. Little Treasure Hunter also needs to rest."

"Search!"

Upon hearing this, Little Treasure Hunter was so grateful that he almost burst into tears.

"Qingqing."

Qingbao, standing to the side, gave him a "you got off easy" look.

"Tooth."

Ya Bao nodded and exclaimed in agreement.

"Search!"

Little Treasure Hunter raised two short toes, striking a pose as if making a vow, and called out firmly.

It guarantees that Lao Liu will accumulate more than 200 points every day from now on!
She had looked so indecisive before, but now she was so determined... Although Qiao Sang had expected it, she still couldn't control her facial expression and smiled because of Xiao Xunbao's actions.

At the same time, inside the barrier, the pet wearing the referee's badge blew the whistle to signal the end of the match and barked:
“Lili”.

The barrier then disappeared.

Qiao Sang looked up and saw that all six electric-type pets were lying on the ground. A virtual panel appeared above Ting Bao:
[Race: Thunder Dragon]

[Level: Intermediate]

【Points: 56】

[Rank: 1000+]

"Tingting!"

Tingbao barked energetically, indicating that it wanted to continue the competition and asking who would be its opponent in the next match.

The surrounding electric-type pets looked at each other in bewilderment, and then scattered in all directions.

After two matches, they both realized that this dragon-type pet had absolute resistance to electric-type attacks.

Soon, the surrounding electric-type pets either went back to charge or left.

Tingbao paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked towards where Xiaoxunbao was.

Then, it saw its own beast tamer and Ya Bao and the others.

Tingbao first showed a surprised expression, then seemed to remember something, her expression turned guilty, she twisted her body and flew over, calling out:
"Tingting?"

What brings you here?

"I came here specifically to see you," Qiao Sang said with a smile.

"Tingting?"

Tingbao called out, indicating that something was wrong.
Instead of answering, Qiao Sang asked a question:

What were you all doing before?

Tingbao paused for a moment and looked at Xiaoxunbao.

Don't look at me, don't look at me... Little Treasure Hunt turned his head to the side, avoiding eye contact.

Tingbao suddenly understood that his own beast tamer knew everything.

"Tingting".

It paused for a moment, then barked once, indicating that it had been playing.

"So honest..." Qiao Sang was stunned, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond.

"Tingting".

Just then, Tingbao barked again, indicating that it wanted to eat and play on its own, and that it was definitely not the boss who dragged it there.

Its expression was sincere, clearly from the heart.

Little Treasure Hunter: "..."

Honestly, you'd be better off not saying anything...

"Qingqing."

Qingbao barked, indicating that Lao Liu should stop covering for Xiao Xunbao, as it had seen the whole thing.

"Tingting?"

Tingbao was a little skeptical and called out, "What did you see?"

"Qingqing."

"Qingqing."

Qingbao immediately recounted in detail the scenes that his clone had witnessed.

"Searching..."

Little Treasure Hunter interrupted halfway through the conversation.

Stop talking, isn't it enough that it admits it...?

"Tingting".

Tingbao called out with a serious expression.

The eldest brother took it there because he saw it wanted to play.

Little Treasure stared blankly at Tingbao.

It never expected that even at this critical juncture, Tingbao would still speak up for itself.

The sixth brother... Little Treasure Hunter was deeply moved.

"Alright, it doesn't matter who takes whom out to play," Qiao Sang said. "The important thing is that we need to accumulate more than 200 points every day in future matches."

"Tingting".

Tingbao nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then, as if only then realizing what was happening, it cried out:
"200 points doesn't mean 200 opponents, does it?"

"Searching".

Little Treasure Hunter nodded heavily.

Tingbao fell silent, imagining itself fighting 200 opponents in a single day.

200, that seems like a lot...

In a flash of thought, Qiao Sang took out her phone, checked the time, and said:

"It's getting late. You guys hurry up and find your opponents, and try to accumulate the points you need for today before tomorrow."

"Tingting".

Tingbao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded when he saw that his beast tamer was no longer pursuing the matter of what he and his boss had been doing these past two days.

"Xunxun?!"

Little Treasure Hunter looked incredulous and exclaimed.

Do I really need to accumulate 200 points today?!

“Of course,” Qiao Sang said.

"Searching..."

Little Treasure Hunt tried to argue, but it was already almost 7 p.m.... Qiao Sang laughed and said, "Who said 7 p.m.? You've been playing all day, so you naturally have to make up for the time spent on the competition tonight."

"Qingqing."

Qingbao couldn't contain her smile and nodded repeatedly in support.

"Searching..."

Little Treasure Hunter tried to argue again.

Qiao Sang interrupted, "Go quickly, and don't forget the other thing I mentioned."

If Tingbao doesn't accumulate 200 points, it will have to train for three hours every day... Little Xunbao remembered this, its expression instantly turned serious, and it called out:
"Searching".

It knows.

After saying that, his eyes glowed blue, and he disappeared from the spot with Tingbao.

"You're pretty quick..." Qiao Sang picked up her phone, opened the navigation, and said:

"Let's go, let's head to the next mission location."

……

A charging station three kilometers away.

"Tingting?"

Tingbao looked around and called out, indicating where we were.
"Looking around~"

Little Treasure Hunter called out.

This is another charging station. Don't worry, I've memorized the locations of all the charging stations around here. I'm sure I can find enough competitors.

It had already thought about this. The number of electric-type pets that can be charged at a single charging station is limited. Moreover, according to the competition rules it had seen, a pet cannot compete twice against the same opponent, otherwise it would be suspected of cheating. Therefore, it had searched for many charging station locations.

As he spoke, a worried expression appeared on his face, and he prepared to begin the performance.

"Tingting".

Tingbao called out, indicating that they should wait a moment.

"Search!"

Little Treasure Hunter looked anxious and called out, indicating that they couldn't wait any longer, otherwise they wouldn't have enough time to accumulate 200 points today!

"Tingting?"

Tingbao barked, indicating that it just wanted to know what the other thing its beast tamer had just mentioned was.
"Searching..."

Little Treasure froze, then sighed and called out, indicating that its Beastmaster had said, "I'm the one who takes you out to play. If you can't accumulate 200 points every day, I'll have to increase your training time every day."

It did not choose to lie.

“Tingting…”

Upon hearing this, Tingbao looked guilty and called out.

If it hadn't played for so long, this wouldn't have happened...

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure Hunter gave a comforting shout.

It's okay. Just keep practicing every day, and I'll find you some good opponents.

"Tingting".

Tingbao looked serious, indicating that it would fight well and strive to win all of them.

Little Treasure Hunter was deeply gratified upon hearing this.

Although this little brother was the last one it acquired, it felt that this little brother suited its taste the best.

"Tingting".

Just as the Little Treasure Hunt was about to begin, Tingbao called out again.

If it can't accumulate 200 points a day, then you'll have to work hard, boss.

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure paused for a moment, patted Tingbao's head, and called out seriously.

Don't worry, the boss will definitely make sure you do it.

After saying this, he showed a very worried expression and raised his voice to call out:
"Search!"

Don't try to challenge eight opponents in one match!
The surrounding electric-type pets all looked over.

Tingbao: "???"

……

7:20 pm.

Villa, living room.

On the table.

Michael looked around and asked:

"Where are Night Ring King and Thunder Dragon?"

Lu Bao, who was eating an energy meal, perked up her ears.

“They’re still competing outside,” Jossan said, taking a bite of rice.

Michaela was somewhat surprised to hear this.

In the past, the pets had gone out on their own, especially the Night Ring King, but no matter how late it was, they would always come back at mealtime. This time, however, they did not, and Qiao Sang did not wait for them to come back before eating.

Qiao Sang took a sip of soup and continued:

"I'll go find them after I finish eating, and bring them some food while I'm at it."

Michaela thought it made sense, but after thinking about it, he still gave the instructions:
"Thunder Dragon is still young, in his infancy. His competition and training time shouldn't be too long. About ten hours a day is usually enough."

In the past, Thunder Dragons' total playing and training time never exceeded ten hours a day, and she never said anything. But today, the time was clearly too long.

She remembered that Thunder Dragon went out to compete in the morning.

Even if you start counting from the time she parted ways with Xiao Xunbao and the others in the afternoon, and Tingbao competed non-stop until midnight, it still wouldn't be ten hours... Qiao Sang said:
"I understand."

Michaela knew that Jossan wouldn't have any problems in this regard, so he changed the subject:
"How is Ya Bao's training in Sacred Flame going?"

"I've already mastered it, but I haven't felt the burning sensation yet..." Qiao Sang replied, "It's still the same, there's no significant progress."

"No progress is to be expected. This is a super-tier skill that almost reached the god-tier level. How could it possibly improve just because you did two days of the curse-removing quest..." Michaela thought to himself, then asked:
What was the most difficult curse to break today?

"Ya Ya!"

Upon hearing this question, Ya Bao couldn't help but look up and call out.

Qiao Sang translated:
"It's a curse that renders people speechless. The person who issued the quest has been under this curse for three years. It took Ya Bao a long time to use his holy fire to purify the curse."

Michael pondered for a moment and said:

"You're probably referring to the mute curse. Here, the one who can cast this curse is a ghost-type pet called the 'Wonderful Voice Monster.' They are naturally fond of pleasant voices, and if they encounter people or pets with unpleasant voices or who sing badly, they will curse them."

She paused, then added:

"This curse has a time limit, lasting for three years. The ghost-type pet that cast this curse seems to have a high level and skill proficiency. You need to be careful."

When a Ghost-type pet's Curse skill proficiency reaches a certain level, it will sense when its curse is cleansed, no matter how far away it is.

Research suggests that some ghost-type pets, after their own curses are cleansed, will seek out the pet or tamer who cleansed the curse and cast a curse on them.

Therefore, even if some pets or beast tamers have the ability to purify curses, they will not easily take action.

While Qiao Sang may not be considered extremely knowledgeable, he is certainly well-informed and naturally knows this.

She ate her rice casually and said, not really caring:

“I know that even if the Ghost-type Pokémon that cast this curse comes knocking, there’s still Ya Bao, whose Holy Fire can purify these curses.”

Michaela, upon hearing this, found it reasonable and said no more.

After finishing their meal and tidying up the table, Qiao Sang picked up Xia Lala and, along with Ya Bao and the others, set off to find Xiao Xunbao and Ting Bao, based on the locations sensed in the Beast Taming Manual.

Teacher Michaela is right, Tingbao is still in his infancy.

The early childhood stage is a time when children are easily influenced by their surroundings. Little Treasure is not inherently bad, but it is the most playful of the group. If Tingbao spends a long time alone with Little Treasure, she may be affected by it. She has to take time out from time to time to keep an eye on it.

Qiao Sang walked while sensing his location.

Suddenly, she thought of something and sighed inwardly.

If only Ya Bao could teleport...

"Steel Chieftain".

Just then, Steel Treasure silently grew larger and growled, then barked, indicating that it was better to sit on its back for a faster ride.

"Qingqing."

Before Qiao Sang could speak, Qing Bao happily floated up, tore off a piece of the white cloud from her body, and stretched it out.

Soon, the torn-off white cloud resembled a white cloud cushion.

"Qingqing."

Qingbao patted the white cloud cushion and called out sweetly to her beast tamer.

Upon seeing this, Qiao Sang's eyes lit up.

Steel Treasure: "..."

……

Meanwhile, at a music bar, a humanoid ghost-type pet was wearing a long face, looking quite unhappy. (End of Chapter)
