Could it be those people?\" Qiao Sang asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yap...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao, though finding that a strong possibility, remembered the odd noises from earlier and shook his head honestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not them...?Qiao Sang thought, then lowered her voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yap...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his trainer's instructions, Yabao jerkily retracted his half-turned head and stiffly moved forward, looking anything but natural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Yabao had no talent for acting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little Treasure, time to practice your skills.\" Qiao Sang whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xun~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure understood instantly, showing a gleeful expression before vanishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang continued to walk calmly while vigilantly scanning her surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out that it wasn't a wild extraordinary creature stalking her, it was another trainer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lingering cloud above her was likely caused by a high-level water-type skill, Rain Prayer, cast by the trainer’s pet beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rain Prayer is an advanced skill, meaning at least one of the following trainer’s beasts is a high-level water-type. Possibly, there could even be beasts of higher levels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't know why this person was following her, but given the tailing and the downpour, it was obvious they had an agenda.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since a direct confrontation wouldn’t be wise, especially given their apparent caution in avoiding a head-on conflict, she could take advantage of the moment when they thought she was unaware.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s see what they’ll do…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang didn't wait long. Barely half a minute later, a sharp, whistling sound pierced through the air from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yabao!\" Qiao Sang shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao sensed the attack and instantly teleported three meters to her front left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, a moderately powerful wind blade slashed through the spot where Qiao Sang had just been standing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So their target was Water Luriana... Qiao Sang realized as the wind blade flashed past in her peripheral vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had she not dodged in time, that wind blade would’ve sliced right through her backpack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hidden nearby, Li Songhai’s eyes widened at the sudden disappearance and reappearance of the pet beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d misjudged again! This was actually a psychic-type pet beast, not a fire-type!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing his mistake, Li Songhai quickly grew wary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pet beast, which had looked like a fire-type, had only teleported at the last second to avoid the wind blade. There was no way that was a coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems this girl realized she was being followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since that’s the case, I might as well act directly and take what I want...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Li Songhai was about to strike, he heard the girl’s slightly frantic voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yabao! Teleport ahead! We’re gonna be late!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Songhai looked confused. So she had her fire-like pet teleport not because she noticed someone following her, but because she was rushing to school?Dodging the wind blade was just a coincidence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kehehehe!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a strange laugh sounded in his ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Already exhausted from two nights without sleep, Li Songhai was nearly scared out of his wits, reflexively turning his head to see the source.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was met with the sight of the ghostly Little Treasure, eyes now glowing purple...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Purple…Li Songhai felt a wave of drowsiness, his vision blurring before he closed his eyes with barely a struggle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Songhai collapsed face-first, making his already unattractive face even worse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far off, Rain Swallow, who had been on guard, turned just in time to see his trainer fall to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chichi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rain Swallow glared at the Little Treasure, fury written across his face. He beat his wings, instantly conjuring two sharp wind blades, and launched them without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xun~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure smirked, teleporting away as the wind blades slammed into the ground, leaving deep gashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chi chi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rain Swallow shrieked, furiously beating his wings before swooping down, his body now enveloped in a vibrant blue glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was about to strike the Little Treasure, a fiery figure charged forward, Yabao!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two collided. Yabao only staggered back a step, while Rain Swallow’s right wing was scorched, sending him crashing into a nearby streetlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chi chi…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rain Swallow struggled to flap his injured wing, his head spinning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chi chi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the pain, Rain Swallow opened his wings, ready to continue fighting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough. I’ve got your trainer here.\" Qiao Sang called, squatting beside Li Songhai. She deftly unfastened his shoelaces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d done this enough times to be skilled at it, quickly tying his hands tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chi chi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rain Swallow’s eyes widened, his entire body trembling with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xun~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure teleported back to Qiao Sang’s side with a happy cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well done.\" Qiao Sang praised, looking up with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for Little Treasure, this would’ve been much harder to resolve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew the man lying on the ground had a high-level steel clad beast. If he’d summoned it, the fight would’ve been far more challenging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, she wasn’t surprised to see it was him following her. He was the only one who knew of Water Luriana.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However…Qiao Sang’s gaze drifted toward the bird-like pet beast nearby, which was shaking with fury, its size not that large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn’t seem like the kind of beast capable of using a high-level skill like Rain Prayer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be yet another prodigy capable of mastering high-level skills at a lower level, just like Yabao and Little Treasure?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a towering figure loomed over her from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang felt a shadow fall over her, making her freeze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xun!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure’s eyes turned purple, glaring fiercely at the figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the figure ignored him, lowering his gaze to look at the half-exposed Water Luriana peeking out of Qiao Sang’s bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Armor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The towering figure was none other than the armored beast Qiao Sang thought had yet to be summoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing the situation had turned, Qiao Sang sprang forward, trying to escape. But the armored beast was swift, with a long reach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After just a few steps, it snatched Water Luriana from her bag, tossing it toward Rain Swallow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Armor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chi chi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving the armored beast’s signal, Rain Swallow’s eyes glinted as he flew toward Water Luriana, intending to grab it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lu lu!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Water Luriana cried out in fear, thinking she was about to be captured again, when suddenly she felt herself being lifted into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she was flung upward before landing in a soft, familiar embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lu lu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Water Luxana blinked, confused, then saw a familiar face above her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yap yap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hovering in mid-air, Yabao bared his fangs, fiercely glaring at the armored beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lu lu...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that moment, Water Luriana felt like she had fallen in love.\u003C\u002Fp>",1119,"2026-06-06T02:23:08.562Z",1,"novelbin.me","a3e915ec05033407754ff0e9447f88a348740f5096bb14cc14b620152f6689fa","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-233","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-231",1023,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-starting-from-zero-cover.jpg"]
