Before she could speak, Dr. Dosharila eagerly asked: “You have an Ice Xilu from Blue Star?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having long studied projects related to emotional energy in pet beasts, she naturally knew that Ice Xilu was an high-level form of the species Water Luriana.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the perfect subject for research, as the entire evolution chain relied on emotional energy, with each stage requiring a different kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Water Luriana were just an ordinary pet beast from Blue Star, it wouldn’t be hard to get one for research.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Water Luriana was an endangered species, any application for it was immediately denied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d thought she might only see one if she ever visited Blue Star herself. Who would have guessed a student attending her lecture would actually possess the advanced form, Ice Xilu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dosharila’s face was filled with excitement and anticipation, making it impossible for Qiao Sang not to notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hesitated, then gave a soft “Mm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s wonderful!” Dosharila’s eyes lit up as she exclaimed excitedly: “Quick, summon it for me to see!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, Qiao Sang saw a resemblance to Guwu people in Dr. Dosharila’s behavior. Without hesitation, she formed a hand seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An orange-yellow star formation lit up, and Lubao quickly appeared within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This color of star formation wasn’t unusual in Union University, a place filled with elite talents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dosharila instinctively ignored the star formation’s color, her full attention was on the rare beast she’d only ever seen in documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So this was Ice Xilu...Dosharila couldn’t help but reach out, wanting to touch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lu-”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lubao was in a bad mood. Seeing a stranger reach out, she flicked her tail and smacked her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled, Qiao Sang quickly said, “Sorry, Professor. My Ice Xilu doesn’t like being touched by others.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine.” Dosharila pulled her hand back, still warm in tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand. Water Luriana has a gentle temperament and loves peace, but since it evolves through emotional energy, its temperament tends to shift with each stage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You know a lot about the Water Luriana species?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dosharila smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not extensively, since it's a pet from Blue Star. But I specialize in emotional energy in pet beasts, so I’ve read quite a bit about those that rely heavily on or evolve through emotional energy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So that’s it…Qiao Sang understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before coming, she’d looked up information on Dr. Dosharila and knew all her long-term projects were related to pet beast emotional energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder she knew Lubao and was interested in her...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Dosharila looked at Qiao Sang seriously and asked: “Would you be interested in becoming my student?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the university level, students could choose courses and instructors based on their interests and academic needs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was a mutual selection process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Students could apply, and teachers could refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each professor had a limited number of slots per year, especially in top institutions like Yulianton University. Professors didn’t hand out spots lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t expected her first invitation to come from someone not in the battle department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she understood why Dr. Dosharila brought it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t interested in her but in Lubao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang paused and said, “I’m an exchange student. I’ll be leaving next semester.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exchange student?” Dosharila responded quickly: “That’s not a problem. You can submit a transfer request, and I’ll handle the rest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang looked silently at Dr. Dosharila.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t you want to transfer to our school?” Dosharila asked hesitantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang paused for two seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m currently enrolled in the Imperial Beast University.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dosharila fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, she composed herself and returned to a calm tone: “Even if it’s just one semester, that’s fine. I can mentor you during this half-year.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, then added, “From the kind of questions you asked in class, I assume you’re preparing for Ice Xilu’s next stage of evolution. I can’t speak for other fields, but I’ve done in-depth research on emotional energy in pet beasts and have received many honors. I can definitely help you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lu-”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lubao’s tail instantly stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evolution?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were talking about her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lubao glanced instinctively at her beast master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Lubao could evolve simply by using stat points, if she could evolve like other Ice Xilu…Qiao Sang thought, then made up her mind and nodded: “I’m willing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lu...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lubao’s tail flicked, and her eyes revealed a rare glimmer of excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dosharila smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s exchange contact information. You can ask me anything. As for making me your mentor, there’s no need to apply. I’ll register you myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.” Qiao Sang nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the main academic building, Qiao Sang checked the time and found that her original class was still ongoing, so she headed to Beast master Class One.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was break time, so she wasn’t worried and walked in carrying Yabao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she entered, she noticed everyone was staring at her. Some were even covering their mouths and snickering, quite a change from before when no one dared meet her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did something happen?” Qiao Sang sensed something was off and sat down beside the red-haired girl who had previously spoken to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl turned to her with a deeply complicated expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Qiao Sang’s heart skipped a beat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did her eyes seem filled with pity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you… pitying me?A sense of foreboding crept into Qiao Sang’s mind. She asked again: “What exactly happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ll see.” The red-haired girl handed over her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang took it, half-curious, half-confused. On the screen was a paused video.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The figure and outfit of the person in the video looked very familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hit play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Present!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice was also very familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, Qiao Sang realized, it was her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More accurately, it was her mimic doll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s so interesting about this?Qiao Sang was about to question it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the video played another loud “Present!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was…Qiao Sang stared at the screen and realized, ten seconds later,sheshouted “Present!” again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang returned the phone and asked, “Why are you showing me this on a loop?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red-haired girl gave her a sympathetic look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This isn’t a loop.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang: ???\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, another sympathetic voice called out nearby,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qiao Sang, the homeroom teacher wants to see you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang: ……\u003C\u002Fp>",1175,"2026-06-06T02:23:26.450Z",1,"novelbin.me","5dcacf2d82bc1fa0eedd24c8adf1c1ce5233b44124c18e2a025a06c100152128","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-704","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-702",1023,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-starting-from-zero-cover.jpg"]
