Beast Taming: Starting From Zero-Chapter 695: Interesting
On the rooftop, one pet beast after another approached using various skills, only to be swiftly dealt with and knocked down.
Finally, someone couldn’t bear it anymore and suggested:
"We can’t keep going like this. It looks like this water-type pet’s Ice Flower Seal has reached the level of an Ultimate level. It’s hard to get through by normal means. Also, her Star Formation is orange-yellow in color, and there are three other pet beasts. We must work together to deal with them."
Seeing someone take the lead, others who had been thinking the same immediately chimed in:
"He’s right. If we don’t work together, even if one or two pet beasts make it there, they’ll just get wiped out by her other three pet beasts."
The speaker, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, was the same boy who had previously sent his Sand King forward.
Everyone fell silent but did not oppose the idea.
A girl with long straight black hair slightly raised her hand and said: "I know the information about her four pet beasts."
"How do you know?"
A boy with a face full of acne asked, unable to hold back: "She just summoned her fourth pet beast, and from this angle, we can’t even see what it looks like."
Earlier, when Qiao Sang was forming seals, everyone had seen the color of her Star Formation. But the Steel Guardian Falcon’s body was small and not standing at the edge, so no one had gotten a clear look yet.
"I had my Little Fear Bird carry the Pet Beast Identifier and sneak around to the rooftop to scan it." The girl explained.
"My Little Fear Bird has the ‘Void’ trait, so it managed to scan the pet beast information smoothly."
The Void trait sounded grand, but it simply meant that pet beasts with this trait had almost no presence.
As long as such a pet beast stayed silent, even right beside you, it was hard to notice.
At that moment, a pet beast call echoed:
"Fear~ Fear~"
Everyone looked toward the source of the voice in surprise.
They saw a pet beast about ten centimeters tall, mostly red with spiky protrusions on its back and black slit-pupil eyes, standing on the girl’s left shoulder.
Was it there all along? It really had no presence… Everyone thought simultaneously.
"What’s her four pet beasts' information?" Someone asked.
The black-haired girl answered seriously:
"Ice Xilu, a high-level water and ice dual-type pet beast. Steel Guardian Falcon, an intermediate-level flying and steel dual-type pet beast."
She paused for breath before continuing:
"Ghost Ring King, a general-rank ghost-type pet beast. Fire Qilu, a general-rank fire and psychic dual-type pet beast."
The surroundings fell into sudden silence, and everyone’s expressions dramatically changed.
Faces filled with confusion, shock, and disbelief froze in place.
"Is that for real?! Maybe your Pet Beast Identifier malfunctioned?"
After a few seconds, someone shouted, breaking the silence, and a wave of noise surged under the eaves.
"No way! That device must be broken! She’s the same age as us, how could she have two general-rank pet beasts?!"
"I might believe one general-rank pet beast, there are cases where someone inherits one from a parent. But two? That’s absurd. Contracting even one not personally raised general-rank pet beast takes tremendous effort and carries a huge risk of backlash. No capable beast master would contract two uncontrollable pet beasts!"
"Maybe her pet beasts just look similar to the general-rank ones?"
"Exactly. Your Little Fear Bird is still a pet beast after all. Even with the Void trait, it probably didn’t get too close for a clear scan. The result must be inaccurate."
Across the starry universe, there are millions of pet beasts, and it’s common for similar appearances to cause misidentification.
Two general-rank pet beasts? Impossible. Everyone instinctively believed the scanning result was wrong.
"My Pet Beast Identifier is the latest all-star interstellar version, just bought it. It can’t be wrong." The black-haired girl retorted.
But no one was convinced.
Everyone here was already among the elite of their age group.
To accept that someone their age could be far more talented was a tough pill to swallow.
They couldn't deny the color of the Star Formation, it was visible, but until concrete confirmation of the pet beasts’ ranks, they subconsciously refused to believe it.
Suddenly, a voice called out: "Um, I used my Pet Beast Identifier to scan the ghost-type pet beast. It really is a general-rank Ghost Ring King."
Silence fell again.
After a long while, someone else added: "Earlier I saw the fire-type pet beast wearing a Lightweight Miniaturization Bracelet, so I scanned it too. It showed as a general-rank Fire Qilu."
"I- I scanned too. Got the same result." Someone else murmured.
A third silence.
One person’s device might malfunction.
But with so many people getting the same result, the chance of error was slim.
Meaning: The one provoking all the new students from the beast master department had four pet beasts, two of which were general-rank monsters?
No wonder. No wonder she was so arrogant on the first day of school…
Everyone was momentarily dazed.
While the crowd was in a daze, a blond boy stood out: "So what if she has two general-rank pets? There are so many of us. Can’t we defeat just one person?"
"Exactly!"
Another person agreed: "This is her trying to crush us from the start. If we back down now, she’ll suppress us our whole college life. We must show her we aren’t easy to mess with!"
"Right." The long straight black-haired girl nodded:
"We have numbers. If we work together, we can definitely defeat her!"
"We must unite!"
"Damn it, I don't care about points anymore! But we have to win against her!"
"Everyone, share what pets you have!"
One after another, the students were fired up like heroes fighting a villain.
Yes, Qiao Sang had become the villain in their eyes.
After learning she had two general-rank pet beasts, her provocation made her intentions obvious-
She wanted to dominate them all and establish herself as the strongest freshman.
If it had been a regular competition, no one would object.
But to use this method to achieve dominance?
Everyone was full of youthful passion, how could they accept becoming stepping stones, let alone collective stepping stones!

Meanwhile, on the rooftop-
Qiao Sang noticed something odd, the attacking pet beasts seemed to have formed formations.
Five or six flying-type pet beasts arranged in a vertical line, each using wind skills to clear the falling snow, advancing rapidly.
The topmost flying beast lay on the second one’s back, facing upwards, spitting rotating air currents to push snow aside.
Whenever snowflakes floated too close, another flying beast would flap its wings harder to disperse them.
It was surprisingly orderly...
Qiao Sang’s lips curled in interest.
"Little Treasure, handle them."
"Xun~ Xun~"
Little Treasure floated forward, blue light flashing in his eyes.
The five or six flying pet beasts stacked like acrobats suddenly lost control and began falling one after another.
Without the 360-degree wind protection, snowflakes quickly clung to them.
Exquisite ice flowers spread wildly.
Before Qiao Sang could even admire it, three purple-toned pet beasts about a meter long suddenly appeared.
Without a word, the three beasts opened their mouths simultaneously, spraying arcs of corrosive green poison toward Lubao!
Just before the poison reached Lubao, she quickly jumped back twice, dodging successfully.
"Icy Wind." Qiao Sang ordered.
"Lu~"
Lubao opened her mouth and a freezing wind swept out widely.
The three purple-toned pet beasts tried to move but found themselves paralyzed.
One of the beasts glanced sideways, it spotted a red-furred pet beast with glowing blue eyes staring at them.
The chilling aura spread.
In an instant, a thick layer of ice sealed all three beasts.
Yabao retracted his telekinesis, his eyes returning to normal.
The three frozen beasts dropped from the rooftop.
Several meters into the fall, they vanished into thin air.
---
Under the eaves.
The students' expressions were dark, especially the three whose poison pets had been sent.
"Can’t you just teleport a high-level pet beast directly?" One boy asked.
"Possible, but only one at a time, with a seven-second cooldown between teleports." Replied a red-haired girl with pale skin.
"Then do it! She can’t possibly defeat a high-level pet in just seven seconds!" Someone said excitedly.
The red-haired girl glanced at him: "She has two general-rank pets. Seven seconds to beat a high-level pet isn’t impossible for her."
Silence fell again.
Someone suggested: "Then teleport an attack-heavy pet first, catch her off guard, and take out Ice Xilu!"
"Good idea!"
Another agreed: "Ice Xilu’s Ice Flower Seal restricts our movements. Taking it out first makes sense."
"Actually, I think we should target the intermediate-level Steel Guardian Falcon first." A boy offered a different opinion.
"Why?"
Everyone looked at him.
The boy explained seriously: "Steel Guardian is only intermediate-level, the easiest to take down. A high-level pet can finish it with one ultimate move. If we take down even one of her pets, her momentum will definitely be shaken."
As people were nodding in agreement, another voice suddenly rang out:
"Why don’t we just take her out directly?"
---
Meanwhile, on the rooftop.
Qiao Sang pondered the recent events.
Looks like the beast master students had teamed up.
The three poison pets had clearly been teleported, one of the freshmen must have a psychic pet with spatial shift ability.
But why teleport three intermediate-level beasts… Wouldn’t it be better to teleport high-level beasts directly?
Since they had teleportation ability...
"Yap!"
At this moment, Yabao bared his teeth and let out an angry cry.
"What's wrong?" Qiao Sang asked.
"Yap!"
Yabao wore a furious expression.
Those humans are discussing how to attack you!
Attack me? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.
How interesting. (T/n: Qiao Sang sounded like those CEO's in a romance novel.)
