Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 605

Chapter 605: Chapter 551: The Friendly Match

The respiratory organs aren’t large, nor is the body size... Qiao Sang silently glanced at the Little Steel Falcon, which was feeding hot peppers to the rock creature beside him, thinking that none of these characteristics matched; how should he handle this?

"Geng Geng?"

The Little Steel Falcon noticed its Beast Tamer’s gaze and turned its head, revealing a puzzled expression.

"Here’s the thing," Qiao Sang decided to tell the truth, "You wanted to stimulate the trait of air depletion, didn’t you? I’ve thought about it and feel that it might be difficult to stimulate a trait. Learning a skill should be simpler, so I found a skill that has a similar effect to air depletion, which is Air Absorption."

"But I just looked at some teaching plans for Air Absorption, and it suggests that Pet Beasts with small respiratory organs and body size should not learn this skill. What do you think?"

If it were Yaobao, Qiao Sang might have directly made a well-considered decision on its behalf, but the Little Steel Falcon wasn’t ordinarily clever. Initially, it was the one who took the initiative to express its desire to stimulate the air depletion trait; she wanted to ask for its opinion.

"Geng Geng..."

The Little Steel Falcon was stunned.

It had thought that the human who became its Beast Tamer had forgotten about this matter, but to its surprise, she was still trying to figure out a way to help it...

Having been present all night, it naturally knew which agreement she had signed to acquire the teaching plan for Air Absorption.

It had thought about many things, but it never expected that the plan was obtained for its sake...

Qiao Sang went on to say:

"Actually, I think that a recommendation is just a recommendation. In my opinion, even though your respiratory organs and size aren’t large now, neither will be a problem after you evolve."

"The issue is, even if you learn this skill now, it probably won’t have much effect in actual combat."

"Air Absorption relies on the larger the respiratory organs, the more air that can be inhaled, creating a larger vacuum range. Given your small size now, even if you learn it, the amount of air you’ll inhale will be limited; it’s very likely that it won’t cause any suffocation effect on your opponent."

"Of course, once you’ve evolved, this skill will definitely be very useful."

"It’s up to you whether you want to learn it now, or wait until after you’ve evolved and your size has increased."

Having said that, Qiao Sang looked at the Little Steel Falcon, waiting for its response.

"Geng Geng."

The Little Steel Falcon thought it over and then nodded its head seriously.

It wanted to learn now.

"Alright, we’ll start training tomorrow," Qiao Sang agreed without hesitation.

"Geng Geng."

The Little Steel Falcon turned its head back to feeding hot peppers to the rock creature. On the surface, there seemed no difference, but a closer look would reveal that its movements were somewhat more cheerful than before.

...

The next day, as the sky was becoming light.

Under the glow of Lubao’s Healing Light, Qiao Sang’s dark circles disappeared.

After a simple wash and putting on the new school uniform, nibbling on a piece of bread, she took Yaobao and the others to the open-air training ground.

"You need to train in suspending breath first, which means breathing in without exhaling," Qiao Sang said to the Little Steel Falcon:

"Let’s give it a try."

"Geng Geng." The Little Steel Falcon nodded and then handed the rock creature it was holding in its claws to Xiao Xunbao with a cry, indicating that it would help watch it for a while.

"Xun Xun~"

Xiao Xunbao agreed happily.

"Chan Chan!"

After a night with its mouth still resembling a sausage, the rock creature, once in Xiao Xunbao’s hands, clung to Xiao Xunbao’s arm like it had seen its own mother, crying loudly.

Compared with the others that only subjected it to a tragic play, Xiao Xunbao was truly a peerless Pet Beast!

"Xun Xun!"

"Xun Xun!"

Xiao Xunbao was first startled and then started pointing at the crystals falling from the rock creature’s face, crying out to Yaobao twice.

Quick, pick it up, pick it up; this is all food for our fourth sibling!

"Not that," Tang Yi yawned, saying, "I got the title of King of Defenders yesterday, but by the time I got back, it was almost midnight. I’m purely sleep deprived right now."

After saying that, he yawned again.

Qiao Sang thought to herself how fortunate she was to have Lubao...

At this moment, the homeroom teacher Mu Deli walked into the classroom and arrived at the podium, saying:

"Students, put down your textbooks for now; I have an announcement to make."

The whole class immediately focused their attention on her.

Mu Deli smiled and said:

"In a couple of days, our school will go to the first district to participate in a 2vs2 team battle friendly match, is anyone interested in voluntarily signing up?"

2vs2 team battle? Qiao Sang pondered briefly.

A 2vs2 team battle could either mean pairs of Beast Tamers teaming up for a doubles match, or an individual Beast Tamer sending out two Pet Beasts to create an appropriate core tactical system to coordinate against the opponent’s two Pet Beasts.

For both formats, there were numerous large-scale competitions, and it was unclear which type the homeroom teacher was referring to.

No one raised their hand, with everyone looking rather uninterested.

"The friendship match this time includes participation from major famous schools from the first three districts, and it’s a rare opportunity for exchange. Would anyone like to go?" Mu Deli looked around and continued.

Upon hearing this, a few people began to raise their hands, one after another, about four or five in number.

The exact number was ambiguous because the fifth person kept raising and lowering their hand, clearly indecisive.

Qiao Sang did not raise her hand; her 24-hour daily schedule was already packed full, there was no time for what they called a friendly match.

Mu Deli looked around and was not very satisfied.

She laughed and added:

"If any student scores among the top three in this friendly competition, we will offer Points as a reward, 20 Points for third place, 50 Points for second place, and 100 Points for first place."

No sooner had the words fallen, than the hands of all the students in the class were raised uniformly and resolutely.

Including Qiao Sang’s.
