Beast Taming Starts from Zero

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure called out, indicating that it had downloaded and registered the app a couple of days ago. It had looked into it and found that major competition platforms were only looking for well-known referees. By doing live streams, it could increase its own fame and eventually become a legitimate referee at major competitions.

Qiao Sang: "..."

No, becoming a referee on a major competition platform, is that something you, an F-level referee, should be considering?

“You don’t need to do any special live streams. Once we participate in the Star Cup, you’ll naturally become famous, and they’ll definitely be vying to have you as a referee,” Qiao Sang said casually.

She knew that Xiao Xunbao had just passed the referee certification exam and was still excited about it. After a while, he wouldn't be interested in being a referee at big competitions anymore.

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure Hunter called out as he operated his phone.

But it will be a long time before you can participate in the StarCraft Cup; I don't even know how many more years you'll have to wait.

As it spoke, it waved its paw at the phone, making a "search, search" sound.

Qiao Sang: "..."

That's the truth...

Qiao Sang said nothing more and started watching the game.

At this moment, an older-looking Bug-type pet walked between Tingbao and Garuda and pressed the referee's bracelet.

Semi-transparent barriers rose up around the perimeter, forming the size of the area.

Inside the barrier, the referee, wearing a referee's badge, blew the whistle to signal the start of the match.

Instantly, crackling yellow arcs of electricity appeared on Tingbao's body, striking straight towards the direction where the Earth Dragon was located.

"Tutu!"

At the same time, the earth dragon roared, and the grass beneath Tingbao was suddenly torn apart.

Tingbao noticed the movement below, but remembering his master's words, he did not dodge.

"The most important thing in a battle is to strike first. As long as your skills are faster than theirs, your opponent will have to follow your rhythm. So don't hesitate when using your skills, and trust yourself."

"Strike first, I'm faster..." Tingbao's eyes widened, revealing a sharp gaze as he looked at the Earth Dragon.

Caught completely off guard, the earth dragon felt a surge of fear.

The rock spikes that were about to emerge from the torn part of the grass suddenly stopped.

"Tingting!"

Tingbao sensed the movement below stop and let out an excited roar.

The next second, the lightning that was striking the Garuda suddenly scattered, and streaks of yellow electricity quickly crossed and converged into an electric net that enveloped the Garuda.

The power of lightning cannot cause any damage to the Garuda, but it can still sense the surrounding lightning.

This force freed it from fear and brought it back to its senses.

"That trick again..." The Earth Dragon seemed to recall something, and with a disdainful expression, it burrowed into the ground.

“I reviewed your match. To cover Garchomp with an electric net from all sides, the first step is to get Garchomp off the ground. It has the Ground type, so it's not easy to get it off the ground under a frontal attack. However, there is a time when it can easily get off the ground, and that is when it burrows into the ground.”

"Remember, it's when it first burrows into the ground, not after it has been there for a while, because if you do, you won't be able to pinpoint its location."

Having prepared in advance, Tingbao recalled his beast tamer's words and without hesitation gathered the electric arcs that had been floating on his body into lightning power, bombarding the spot where the earth dragon had burrowed into the ground.

The surrounding ground instantly shattered.

"Tutu!"

The earth dragon was blasted out and touched the top of the electric grid.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Tingbao unleashed his lightning power once again.

The lightning bolt didn't strike the earth dragon, but instead landed on the electric net.

Immediately afterwards, the arcs in the lower part of the power grid rapidly extended, intersected, and converged, forming a spherical power grid that completely trapped the Earth Dragon inside.

"Search!"

Little Treasure Hunter shouted excitedly from outside the barrier.

The Earth Dragon has been successfully trapped. Now, all I need to do is unleash my ultimate move... Qiao Sang thought to himself.

"Tingting!"

Tingbao's eyes lit up as he looked at the completely trapped earth dragon, and he rushed towards it without hesitation.

At the same time, a silvery-white light condensed on its tail. "TuTu!"

As a dragon-type pet, the Earth Dragon naturally knew what this move was. Its expression changed slightly, and it subconsciously tried to burrow into the ground.

However, the electric grid below prevented it from digging a hole.

The Earth Dragon's expression changed drastically. It raised its head, pouted, and tried to use an attack as a form of defense.

"boom!"

However, its earlier attempt to burrow into the ground had delayed it considerably, and before it could even unleash a torrent of mud like bombs, its silvery-white tail lashed out at it.

"Tutu!"

The earth dragon let out a miserable scream.

"If Dragon's Tail hits successfully, don't be too happy too soon. The Garuda has high defense and may not be defeated by this attack. Remember to finish it off."

"Tingting?"

What is last hitting?

"It's about giving it another blow."

"Tingting!"

As Tingbao recalled his conversation with his beast tamer, his tail suddenly condensed with a rich silver-white light and lashed downwards.

"Tutu!"

The Garuda let out another scream.

The land beneath it was cracked and dust was flying everywhere.

When the dust settled, the earth dragon was already unconscious.

"Search!"

Little Treasure Hunter held the phone and let out an excited shout.

The Bug-type pet wearing the referee's badge paused for a moment, then stepped forward to check on the Garuda's condition.

A moment later, it turned its head and glanced at Tingbao with a complicated expression, blew the whistle to signal the end of the match, and barked:
“Dede.”

A virtual panel appeared above Tingbao.

[Race: Thunder Dragon]

[Level: Intermediate]

【Points: 14980】

[Ranking: 1]

The barrier disappears.

The insect-type pets watching from the sidelines looked at each other, all seeing bewilderment on each other's faces, seemingly unable to believe that the Garuda had lost so easily.

Tingbao looked at the unconscious Tu Lulong, his expression somewhat dazed.

Did it win?
At this moment, Qiao Sang walked over and said with a smile:

"Great, Tingbao, congratulations on winning."

"Search!"

Little Treasure turned off the live stream, put away its phone, floated to Tingbao's side, and excitedly patted its head.

Well done, Lao Liu!

It was watching live from the sidelines when Tingbao first battled against the Earth Dragon, so it naturally knew how much Tingbao had improved in that match.

"Tingting!"

Tingbao looked at its beast tamer and finally felt the reality of its victory. It showed an excited expression, flicked its tail forward, curled its beast tamer up, and threw it upward with force.

Qiao Sang couldn't help but smile brightly, letting Tingbao toss her around, without dodging it as she usually did.

“Dede.”

At the same time, the elderly insect-type pet removed its referee badge and called out to the surrounding insect-type pets.

The insect-type pets came over and carried the unconscious Garchomp towards the cave. (End of Chapter)
