From now on, you two belong to different worlds, she’s human, and you’re a beast companion. You won’t meet again. Stop thinking about her.

You don’t want to form a contract with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gang gang...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steel Falcon looked at Yabao, then at Little Treasure, reevaluating both sides' combat power for the Nth time.

In a year, I’ll be going back. The environment and climate there are different from here. I’m afraid you might not adapt, so before the contract, I want to test your resistance to heat and cold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xun xun~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure clenched his tiny paw and lightly punched Steel Falcon's body, implying that with its tough physique, there would be no problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gang gang?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steel Falcon looked confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was Blue Star?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xun xun~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure waved his paw dismissively and let out a small cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don’t even know what Blue Star is?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he extended a paw toward his Beastmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without needing to be told, Qiao Sang immediately understood. She placed her phone in Little Treasure's paw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xun xun~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure skillfully navigated the phone, quickly pulling up a video.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gestured for Steel Falcon to come closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Curious, Steel Falcon leaned in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the screen, a blue planet appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, a man’s voice played from the phone:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Blue Star, our home planet. A place filled with countless secret realms, accessible only to Beast masters.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene shifted to a man holding a microphone, looking at the camera:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because of these Beast masters, our society remains peaceful. Now, let’s take a look at what they do in their daily lives.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The footage cut to a Beast master feeding a bird-like beast companion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look at this heartwarming scene. This Beast master is feeding a Bald Swallow-\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, the Bald Swallow spat out the food in disgust and turned away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Baldy! Don’t go!\" The Beast master quickly chased after it, holding the food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is expensive! At least take another bite!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man with the microphone shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like this Beast master still doesn’t understand Bald Swallow’s taste preferences.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a white cloth-like beast companion appeared on screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Cleansecloth! A Cleansecloth just appeared!\" The man’s eyes lit up, and he quickly approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello! I make short videos. Can I touch you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he hadn’t mentioned Cleansecloth, this would’ve looked like some kind of harassment scene, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but internally complain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cleansecloth, a beast companion from the Lianbo Region, had a peculiar ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said that if a healthy person touched it, its color remained unchanged. But if someone with an illness touched it, the Cleansecloth would turn black, the darker the color, the more severe the illness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder the man was so excited. Cleansecloths were rare in Lianbo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the video, the Cleansecloth skillfully pulled out a paper from its crossbody pouch:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[One touch: 500 coins]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Deal!\" The man happily handed over 500 Alliance Coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clean clean.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After taking the money, Cleansecloth nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man looked thrilled as he reached out to touch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he did, more than half of Cleansecloth’s body turned black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah!\" The man let out a scream and turned to the camera, his face pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop recording! What are you still filming for?! We need to get to the hospital!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the screen went black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The video ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xun xun...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure shook his head, dissatisfied with his choice of video. He started searching for another one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gang gang...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steel Falcon, deep in thought, recalled what it had just seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The planet you're on now is called Chaosu Star. It’s different from ours.\" Qiao Sang said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once you form a contract with me, you’ll understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steel Falcon listened quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there anything you want to do?\" Qiao Sang asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gang gang...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steel Falcon was startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something it wanted to do...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You just completed something you wanted, but it took too much time and effort.\" Qiao Sang continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ultimately, it’s because you weren’t strong enough. If you were powerful, Ashley wouldn’t have dared to target you at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you were strong enough, you wouldn’t have needed to scheme so much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You set up those schemes because you knew they wouldn’t listen to you. But when you become powerful, they’ll have no choice but to listen and believe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was able to take you away so easily not because I have power or influence, but because I proved myself through strength. They had no choice but to recognize me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Like I said, I won’t force you into a contract. Just say the word.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gang gang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steel Falcon was silent for a long time before finally letting out a call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t unwilling.\u003C\u002Fp>",1188,"2026-06-06T02:23:19.836Z",1,"novelbin.me","d930fffa8dc5414d9eada390ea834f4410044daf454531e88dce0989e17287f0","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-522","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-520",1023,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-starting-from-zero-cover.jpg"]
