Instead, it was stopped by the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where the ear was touched, it rippled like water, a magical sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xun!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excited, Little Treasure poked it a few more times. Then, he started poking the tail, which also looked like water swirling in motion, just like the ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang walked closer and stared at the light blue beast, frozen in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a distance, the small size of the beast and its curled up form after fainting had only made its color noticeable, not its appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The small creature lay on its side, with four legs resembling a fox, covered in light blue scales. Its large, pointed ears were a deeper blue inside than outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center of its forehead was a sapphire-like, water droplet-shaped gem. Its back connected to a tail, which split at the end like a mermaid’s tail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most stunning part was its ears and tail, they actually looked like they were made of flowing water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang squatted down and couldn’t resist touching its ear. It was cool and soft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A refreshing coolness spread from her fingertips, it was the perfect sensation for a hot summer day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The texture was so pleasant that Qiao Sang couldn’t help but stroke it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Yabao approached. Unlike Qiao Sang and Little Treasur, he wasn’t fooled by the cute appearance of the light blue beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared angrily at the unconscious beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, this was the culprit that had soaked him from head to toe earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more Yabao thought about it, the angrier he got. He stomped over and shook the little beast hard with his paw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why are you still unconscious? Wake up and fight me right now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yabao, let’s wait until it wakes up naturally. We can ask why it did that.” Qiao Sang said, feeling sorry for the small beast being shaken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People are always more lenient toward beautiful things. In today’s society, beauty standards don’t just apply to humans but to beasts as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is clearly shown in the Coordination Contests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as a beast is good-looking, it doesn’t even need to perform to make it into the second round.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if a beast is unattractive, no matter how hard it tries, it’ll still face harsh criticism.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reluctantly, Yabao withdrew his paw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he desperately wanted to fight the culprit right now, he decided to wait since his Beastmaster had said so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang smiled and patted Yabao’s head in appreciation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then picked up the little blue beast and carried it into the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After placing it on the sofa, she took a picture with her phone and searched for information online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, information about the light blue beast appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Water Luriana, a near-extinct water-type beast from the Guwu region. Known for its gentle nature and dislike for fighting, it symbolizes peace and beauty.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Its cellular structure is similar to water molecules, granting it the ability to merge its body with water by altering its cells.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[It must constantly replenish its water supply, which it absorbs through its ears or tail from moisture in the air.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[If its ears or tail double in size, it's a sign that it will rain within a few hours.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[It is said that even if it loses limbs, as long as the gem on its forehead glows, it can heal and restore itself.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang’s mind went blank as she read the information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An endangered water-type beast from the distant Guwu region?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Guwu region was incredibly far from the Yuhua region… It’s an exaggeration to say it's over ten thousand miles away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But how did a beast from there end up here in Yuhua?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it can regenerate lost limbs?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would require at least a high-tier healing skill!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang forced herself to stay calm and took a deep breath, searching for the reason behind Water Luriana’s near extinction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beasts that are near extinction are usually affected by ancient catastrophes, hunting, or reproductive issues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, they were over hunted by humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking back to the gem on Water Luriana’s head mentioned earlier, Qiao Sang strongly suspected it had been over hunted by humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, her search confirmed her suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Due to difficulties in reproduction and excessive hunting.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang was silent for a long time.As expected…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The value of such rare beasts is unimaginable. Though not as powerful as a divine beast, its rarity is on par with one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon-type and fairy-type beasts, although rare, can still be bought if you have enough money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for a near-extinct beast, it’s not just a matter of money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking down at the unconscious Water Luriana, Qiao Sang couldn’t help it… She was tempted…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who wouldn’t be tempted by a rare beast with powerful healing abilities, one as precious as a divine beast? If someone weren’t tempted, they’d have to be a saint!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Beastmaster, resisting the allure of such a beast is impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang admitted she was only human, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little Treasure!” Qiao Sang turned her burning gaze toward the ghost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When it wakes up, it’s all on you. Use your charm, offer it the best snacks and fun! I’ll repay you tenfold!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xun!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little ghost became excited and quickly removed his ring, pulling out all sorts of things from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Milk, candy, snacks, wind eagle feathers, dandelions, pink heart-shaped sunglasses…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao was puzzled by his Beastmaster’s words.Were these things really for the culprit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he saw the familiar sunglasses on the coffee table, he forgot his previous thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excited, Yabao grabbed the pink heart shaped sunglasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been searching for those for so long,only to find them in his little brother’s ring!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao eagerly tried to put them on, but… they wouldn’t fit. The frames were pressing into his face…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since evolving from a Fire Fang Dog into a Flame Hound, Yabao had grown several times larger. His head was also much bigger, so the sunglasses no longer fit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao quickly realized the issue lay in his evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his head in disappointment, unable to accept this reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No big deal, I’ll buy you a few new pairs. You can pick whichever you like.” Qiao Sang said generously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao’s tail began to wag, his spirits lifted once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Ya Bao was in a good mood, Qiao Sang took the opportunity to ask, “Do you know who this little beast is?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he knew. This was the evil creature that soaked him earlier!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, this is a poor creature, far from home, all alone, with no family or friends, lost and helpless.” Qiao Sang said, feigning a heavy tone.\u003C\u002Fp>",1178,"2026-06-06T02:23:08.562Z",1,"novelbin.me","af9bade3a9b1db8f5abe2f048b9037a6861553f87ae40c22454ad0a3645ccdd9","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-137","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-135",1023,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-starting-from-zero-cover.jpg"]
