Beast Taming: Starting From Zero-Chapter 692: Suddenly Understood Something
The Beast Taming freshmen present weren’t particularly surprised by the scene.
Everyone started discussing among themselves, each offering their own opinions.
"It looks like this water-type pet has the Mist trait."
The Mist trait allows a pet to exist and move like mist in the air as long as there’s moisture. It's a rather rare ability.
"I don’t think so." A girl offered a different opinion.
"I’ve seen a pet with the Mist trait before. When it turned into mist, it didn’t just vanish instantly like this, it was a gradual process, where you could see its body slowly dispersing along with the wind."
Another boy pushed up his glasses and said, "It's the Melting Water trait."
Someone nearby laughed.
"Impossible, that water-type pet didn’t even use any water-type skills just now."
Another agreed, "Melting Water needs water first. There’s no puddle around here, and it’s not raining either."
"But its tail fin is made of water." The boy with glasses said calmly.
"Generally speaking, body parts made from elements can be partially controlled through training."
His analysis was correct. Back when Yabao was training to control his flame wings, Lubao was also undergoing similar training.
Her tail fin was condensed from water. Through training, while it couldn’t completely disappear like Yabao’s wings, she could make water drip from her tail fin.
Qiao Sang had thought at the time that this move would be very useful in battle.
After all, traditional water-type skills were easy to predict and defend against, but dripping water from the tail fin was invisible to the opponent, making it a perfect tactic for sudden disappearance.
Inside the encirclement, the boy selected for battle remained calm and gave a command:
"Move."
"Mysterious!"

Mysterious Weng immediately ran off.
Its movement path was extremely bizarre and unpredictable, like someone drunkenly staggering about.
Qiao Sang’s vision was extraordinary now. She clearly saw Mysterious Weng dropping tiny, dust-like brown particles as it moved.
Could it be... it hasn’t bathed in too long? Qiao Sang quickly pushed this thought out of her mind and regained a serious expression.
This was a battle, not a joke. Those things it dropped must have a purpose. It would be best to end this quickly...
As this thought rose, Lubao suddenly leapt out from behind Mysterious Weng. Her sharp claws condensed into ice, flashing cold light, and she slashed mercilessly forward.
Just as the icy claws were about a centimeter away from Mysterious Weng, sharp vines suddenly burst from the ground like swords!
Sure enough, those falling particles were a trap... Qiao Sang quickly issued a command:
"Water Stream Jet!"
Lubao withdrew her claws. Huge streams of water enveloped her body, shooting her into the air, successfully dodging the sharp vines erupting from the ground.
Many people around pulled out their pet scanners and scanned the now stationary Mysterious Weng.
Mechanical electronic voices rang out.
[Mysterious Weng, a high-level grass-type pet from Tengen Star. The seeds it sprays out can randomly produce various grass-type skills. As the pet's level increases, the skills produced become more aligned with the pet's will.]
Just as one electronic voice finished speaking, Lubao, encased in a water stream, drew an elegant arc through the air and launched a sudden assault on Mysterious Weng.
The proficiency of that Water Stream Jet looked almost like a ultimate technique... The boy’s heart tightened and he shouted loudly:
"Block it!"
Mysterious Weng looked up and opened its mouth.
A brown seed was about to shoot out when Lubao suddenly accelerated and slammed head-on into Mysterious Weng’s head.
"Mysterious!"
Mysterious Weng screamed and staggered, collapsing onto the ground.
"Photosynthesis!"
"Continuous Water Tail!"
Qiao Sang and the boy shouted commands at the same time.
Photosynthesis, a healing skill only grass-type pets could use, allowed them to restore energy and stamina through sunlight.
Water Tail, a mid-level water skill, even if Mysterious Weng was hit, it could still maintain Photosynthesis, and its proficiency was already in the late mastery stage. Usually, normal attacks couldn’t overcome its regeneration... or so the boy thought, until the next moment when his mouth twitched hard.
Lubao’s Water Tail was thick and massive, many times larger than her original tail, utterly absurd.
Mysterious Weng’s Photosynthesis couldn't keep up.
Continuous Water Tail strikes battered the already heavily injured Mysterious Weng, leaving it no chance to retaliate.
Seeing the scene, the boy realized a brutal truth: Lubao’s Water Tail was also at the ultimate level...
He took a deep breath and prepared to give another command.
But at that moment, Lubao, sensing it was enough, retracted her tail. Her claws instantly froze into sharp ice.
Swish!
The Ice Claws dragged a long, cold gleam across Mysterious Weng’s head.
"Mysterious!"
Mysterious Weng was sent flying and never got up again.
Ice Claws, another Ultimate level... Realizing this, the boy looked at the girl opposite him with a complicated expression.
He didn’t choose to continue fighting. He simply withdrew Mysterious Weng and left.
At the same time, a virtual panel visible only to Qiao Sang popped up.
Name: Qiao Sang
Major: Beast Taming Department
Points: 1
While Qiao Sang was looking at the virtual panel, the Beast Taming freshmen around her exchanged glances.
Although this was the battle result everyone had hoped for, no one was rushing up to challenge her anymore.
After all, students who could enter Yulianton University weren't fools. Whether it was the orange-yellow star formation, or the Ultimate-level Water Stream Jet, Water Tail, and Ice Claws, all of it made them realize that this girl wasn’t simple.
At this moment, the boy with glasses pointed his pet identfier at Lubao.
[Ice Xilu, a high-level dual water-ice type pet from Blue Star, nearly extinct. Consider yourself lucky to encounter one. Don’t forget to take a picture!]
Upon hearing the scanner's announcement, the boy’s pupils shrank sharply. He stared hard at Lubao and hurriedly took out his phone to snap a photo.
"Anyone else want to battle?" Qiao Sang asked.
"I do!" Soon, another freshman walked out from the crowd.
Three minutes later, as the opponent closed in, Lubao ended the match with an Ice Spike Shield.
In the next hour, Lubao used Rain Prayer and the Swift Swimmer trait to easily defeat many opponents.
Although these were battles against countering types, Lubao’s skill proficiency far outmatched the opponents', making every battle a one-sided victory without any disadvantage.
As time passed, fewer and fewer people lined up to fight.
When they saw a thunder-type pet finally land a strike with lightning, only for the water-type Lubao to immediately glow blue and fully recover after winning, the remaining people cursed and turned away.
Seeing the crowd thinning, Qiao Sang quickly shouted:
"Don’t leave! We can continue! Don’t you want the 100 points?"
Heh, trying to bait them again with 100 points... No one stopped walking.
At that moment, a red-haired boy stopped and turned around to ask:
"If it’s not counter-typing, will you fight?"
"No." Qiao Sang replied without hesitation.
"Then there’s nothing more to say." The boy said, turning and leaving.
Qiao Sang: ...
I haven’t even sent out Yabao or Little Treasure yet... How did it come to this...
Suddenly, a voice sounded beside her:
"The assessment only said to find a counter-typed pet and win to get points, it didn’t say the opponent had to agree to fight."
Qiao Sang turned toward the voice and saw a blond boy with glasses.
"What do you mean?" Qiao Sang asked.
The blond boy smiled mysteriously: "If we take the initiative to attack, would they really just stand there and get beaten without sending out their pets?"
After speaking, he turned to a pet nearby, a roughly three-meter-tall, almost entirely green creature holding a white flower.
He commanded: "Jasmine King, the one wearing the cap."
"Jasmine!"
The Jasmine King cried out, and its eyes flashed green.
Ten meters away, vines suddenly shot up from the ground and bound the legs of a boy wearing a black baseball cap.
Startled, the boy reflexively formed hand signs and summoned his pet.
"Just like that." The blond boy said mischievously.
Qiao Sang watched as the boy angrily summoned his pet to slice through the vines and then glared at the blond boy as if ready to fight.
Suddenly, she understood something...
