Beast Taming Starts from Zero

“That’s right,” Qiao Sang said with a smile.

"secretly?"

The pet with an antenna growing out of its head let out a cry.

What kind of news do you want to publish?
Qiao Sang smiled and said, "Just say, 'Would you be willing to exchange a bottle of King's Potion for a chance to be healed by the Light of Healing?'"

Although Lu Bao uses Healing Light so much that it's practically worn out, for others, Healing Light is still considered a god-like skill.

"secretly."

The pet with an antenna growing from its head nodded, then picked up the camera and began taking pictures openly.

Seeing this, Little Treasure Hunter quickly took off the ring, took out a cape and wig from it, put them on, and struck a pose.

"Ya Ya!"

Ya Bao called out.

Little Treasure Hunter took off the ring again and pulled out sunglasses from it.

Ya Bao took it, put it on, and then stood tall with his head slightly raised, looking up at the sky.

Qingbao gave Xiaoxunbao a rather disdainful look.

However, when the camera lens turned to itself, it quickly suppressed its disgusted expression, put on a well-behaved look, and casually stroked the white clouds on its lower body.

Lu Bao and Gang Bao weren't interested in taking pictures. Seeing that there was nothing else to do, they turned around and left to continue their training.

Tingbao paused for a moment, looking at Yabao and Xiaoxunbao's exaggerated poses. Then, he looked at the pets taking pictures and seemed to understand something. He started to imitate Xiaoxunbao, twisting his body and striking a pose.

Seriously, these are paparazzi, not professional photographers for magazines… Qiao Sang thought to herself, and instead of lying down as before, she sat cross-legged and began to meditate.

……

The next day, at 2 PM.

Josan followed Teacher Michaela to sit down in the front row of the competition venue.

As soon as she sat down, she felt a moment of silence around her, with many eyes frequently glancing over.

I wonder if that paparazzi mentioned the news he wanted to publish to the journalism students. It seems that the news may have already been released. After all, when I came to watch the game this morning, not so many people were watching me... Qiao Sang felt the gazes around her and her heart stirred.

As thoughts raced through their minds, the crowd began to whisper among themselves, their voices reaching their ears:

"Is that her?"

"Yes, she's said to be a 17-year-old B-rank Beastmaster. I don't know if it's true that she's 17, but she's definitely a B-rank Beastmaster. Many people have personally witnessed her defeat Franklin."

"It is said that geniuses are more or less eccentric or quirky. I didn't believe it at first, but after seeing that news, I can only say that some things are not unfounded."

"If she is really 17, then she is not a genius in the traditional sense, so it is normal for her to have an eccentric personality."

"She's not just strange, she's vicious!"

"She can even teach her pet beast the Skywing Blade. Is she a normal person? You have no idea how brutal this move is. I heard that to master the Skywing Blade, you have to rip off the entire wing during the training process! But its power is also really strong. Even when Franklin's Evil Moon Rabbit used its Demon Armor, it couldn't resist it at all."

"You know what, I never knew about the Skywing Blade move before. I watched the video yesterday and was really interested. I joked with my flying bird and told it to practice the move. As a result, its wings turned into steel wings and it said it wanted me to experience what it felt like to lose an arm first."

"Hahaha, this move is not something a normal beast tamer or pet can learn."

"A vicious personality? News? Are they talking about me?" Qiao Sang listened to the conversation around her, stunned for a moment, feeling as if her reputation had been unfairly damaged.

She suddenly remembered something, took out her phone, and searched for news about herself, only to find that there was no news about her.

It seems that Yantian University has suppressed the news of Franklin's match against them...

Indeed, at this critical juncture, it wouldn't look good if the news of Yantian University losing a once-in-a-century battle of geniuses got out.

Since it's not outside news, it must be inside news... Thinking this, Qiao Sang opened the number labeled "Guilun Sai'er" and sent a message:
Can I ask you a question for free?

She had previously obtained Guilunsair's contact information through Little Treasure Hunt.

The other party replied instantly:

"That depends on the question." Qiao Sang typed and sent:
I'd like to ask if there's any news about me in the internal campus news section of Yantian University.

[Guilun Sailer: I can give this to you for free.]

The next second, several links were sent over.

Qiao Sang glanced at the title:
A prodigious genius has emerged at the Imperial Beast Taming Academy.

[Franklin instantly killed? What's the truth behind the battle?]

【Steel Chieftain Kane's Synergy Evolution】

How exactly does one master the Skywing Blade?

How ruthless must one's heart be to master the Skywing Blade?

[The Heart Thief's Memories: The Horrifying Experience of Being "Holded by the Head" by a Prodigy from the Imperial Beast Taming Academy]

Heart Thief, a high-level Ghost-type pet, is the Ghost-type pet with antennas on its head that appeared yesterday.

Qiao Sang looked at the link title at the bottom, paused for a moment, and then opened it.

What catches the eye is the photo from yesterday of her carrying the antenna on the head of the Heart Thief.

In the picture, he is holding the antenna of the heart thief, with a smile on his lips, looking very much like a villain.

Qiao Sang's eyelids twitched and then scrolled downwards.

Below is another photo.

In the photo, the person is holding the antenna of the Heart Thief, while Little Treasure sticks out its tongue and licks its face hard, as if it is tasting its prey. The Heart Thief, on the other hand, is pale and looks like it has fainted, as if it has been tortured.

I almost forgot there were quite a few paparazzi taking pictures back then... Qiao Sang glanced at the content of the interview with the Heart Thief, took a deep breath, and prepared to contact the Heart Thief.

Yesterday, she made a point of getting the other party's contact information.

But just then, my phone vibrated; an unknown number was calling.

Qiao Sang answered the call.

"Qingqing?" A pet's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Is it Qiao Sang, the prodigy from the Imperial Beast Taming Academy?
...Qiao Sang admitted, "It was me."

Even if Gangbao can't hear the voice on the other end of the phone, through the power of bonds, the voice she hears can appear in her mind, and then Gangbao can understand it, as the power of bonds automatically translates it.

"Love."

The pet on the other end of the phone let out a cry.

I am a journalism student at Yantian University. The "Heart Thief" contacted me and told me your needs. I think I don't need to publish news; I can make a deal with you directly.

Qiao Sang did not speak.

"Love."

When the pet on the other end of the phone didn't answer, it barked again.

I'm serious, I have points that I can redeem for the King's Potion.

Qiao Sang said calmly, "Did you write this news article, 'The Heart Thief's Memories: The Terrifying Experience of Being 'Holded by the Head' by a Prodigy from the Imperial Beast Taming Academy'?"

The fact that this news was reported on the campus news of Yantian University means that it must be someone from inside Yantian University, and according to the Heart Thief, the person it knew was the pet of the Journalism Department.

The one interviewing the heart-stealing ghost must have been the pet that made the phone call.

There was no response from the other end of the phone.

Immediately afterwards, a "beep beep" sound came from behind.

The call was hung up.

Qiao Sang: "..." (End of this chapter)
