Once he arrives, we’ll go.” Qiao Sang replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla, pretending to be unaware of the details, asked casually, “What kind of Beast Master is he? What level? What’s his role in this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“F-rank. Fifteen years old. Name’s Guo Ruiqi. Still a student.” Qiao Sang’s answer was brief and clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our main objective this time is to enter the Secret Realm and help him find his pet beast that was captured.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the past few days, the Beast Master of Lele Seed had called her several times. After their talks, Qiao Sang had a better grasp of the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla maintained herquiet and aloofpersona and didn’t probe further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang, however, turned to her and asked, “Why did you take this mission?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was true that items from other planets were more valuable, but the person before her was a B-rank Beast Master, someone who had surely seen countless rare treasures. To accept this mission so easily, without even asking about the details or risks, seemed a little too quick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang froze for a moment, then frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re entering Secret Realm No. 53… for what purpose?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her only reason for forming a team was to find a reliable partner for this mission. If her companion had their own agenda that could delay finding Lele Seed, she needed to reconsider teaming up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crap, wrong excuse…Mikayla realized Qiao Sang’s expression was suspicious and quickly recovered her cold front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s my private matter.” She said smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But don’t worry. I’ll only act during rest breaks. I won’t delay your mission.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s fine then.” Qiao Sang smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I didn’t mean it like that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, you totally did.Mikayla thought silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xun xun~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure reappeared stealthily beside his Beast Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder he hadn’t sensed anything wrong earlier, this wasn’t his master’s real teacher at all.That explained why he couldn’t find any flaws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a short while, Qiao Sang’s phone began vibrating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She checked the screen, the caller ID read: Secret Realm No. 53.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scanning the area, she quickly spotted a teenage boy with a hiking pack, holding his phone to his ear. Beside him were two adults, clearly his parents, carrying several large bags.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang hung up and walked toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Guo Ruiqi.” She called.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy turned, froze briefly, then noticed Mikayla beside her. He hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Beast Master Qiao?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla: …\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seriously? You couldn’t tell from the voice?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang coughed lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ruiqi blinked in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mother reacted first, quickly saying, “It’s just that you look so young, so he got confused.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His father nodded rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, yes, that’s right!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he smacked his son lightly on the head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Young? She looks my age!Guo Ruiqi screamed internally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not ‘young-looking’, I actually am young… Qiao Sang thought dryly, but didn’t bother explaining her real age. She simply said, “Since you’re here, let’s get going.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mother Guo’s put down a large bag and handed Qiao Sang a smaller one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Qiao, please take care of my son. We prepared some treats inside, your pet beasts can snack on them during breaks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The box peeked out from the bag, its packaging beautifully crafted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senior Qiao?Qiao Sang froze for a moment, then waved her hands quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, no, that’s not necessary.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You must take it.” Father Guo pleaded earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’ll be hard taking our boy into a Secret Realm…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, Qiao Sang cut him off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not just me. Beast Master Xu is coming too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mother Guo flushed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, I only prepared one gift…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Father Guo hurried to add, “Then when you all return safely, I’ll definitely prepare another one for Beast Master Xu!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla, keeping to her cold persona, simply said, “I don’t need it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The parents didn’t insist further. To them, Qiao Sang was the B-rank powerhouse leading the mission, clearly the one in charge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then please, Senior Qiao, just accept this.” Mother Guo said again, pushing the bag forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole situation felt eerily like those patients’ families who, after paying for surgery, still insisted on sending gifts to the doctor for peace of mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang straightened, her tone calm but firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I accepted this mission, and I’ll see it through. I’ll ensure your son’s safety, you don’t need to give me anything.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced deliberately at her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s getting late. We should head out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ruiqi slung the bags over his shoulder and hurried to her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mother hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then… what about the rest of the luggage?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang’s serious look softened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I told you, I won’t take-”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I didn’t mean that.” His mother interrupted quickly, motioning at the pile of large bags.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard Secret Realm No. 53 has a huge temperature difference between day and night, so I packed extra clothes…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang: …\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Father Guo asked nervously, “Is it… okay to bring all that inside?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, not really. We’re not going on a picnic…Qiao Sang sighed inwardly but, seeing their pleading eyes, finally relented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine. I happen to have a pet beast that can carry things.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xun xun~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, Little Treasure proudly appeared and flicked his hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yep, that’s me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s wonderful!” Guo’s parents said gratefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Treasure removed his storage ring and began levitating each bag neatly inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You have to listen to the two Beast Masters.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t be picky about food like at home, eat what they eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The temperature changes fast, so remember to dress warmly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo’s parents repeated their advice again and again, eyes full of worry and affection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were both Beast Masters themselves, though barely qualified. Neither had ever entered a Secret Realm before.Who would’ve thought their underage son would go before them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry, Mom, Dad.” Guo Ruiqi said sincerely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll listen to Senior Qiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three said their goodbyes reluctantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So now I’m a ‘senior,’ huh… Qiao Sang thought with a wry smile as she led the way toward the entrance of Secret Realm No. 53.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla and Guo Ruiqi followed close behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way, Guo Ruiqi kept sneaking glances at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, even now, he was still stunned by how young this “Senior Qiao” was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then… his eyes fell on Yabao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That beast looked so familiar. He could swear he’d seen it somewhere before…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the entrance, teams were gathering. Most were mounted together on flying-type beasts to enter simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang recalled what she’d read on the forum: “The landing point in this Secret Realm is random. If we don’t want to get separated, we’ll need to enter while riding the same beast.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood!” Guo Ruiqi replied firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla stayed silent, keeping her cold act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao jumped from Qiao Sang’s arms and grew in size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His powerful and majestic form immediately drew attention from nearby Beast Masters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several recognized him instantly, whispers, camera clicks, and murmurs followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang climbed onto Yabao’s back and said, “Come on up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, Yabao disliked letting others ride him, but he understood this was the most efficient way. He stood still, patient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once all were seated, Yabao walked toward the portal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ripples spread across the shimmering air, then vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the Secret Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The temperature changed instantly, now it felt like a scorching summer, over forty degrees Celsius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang and Mikayla endured it easily, but Guo Ruiqi was soon sweating and peeling off his jacket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All around, silence. Not a single sound of beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of sharp wooden spikes erupted from the ground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao reacted instantly, vanishing through teleportation and reappearing a hundred meters above the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened his jaws wide and unleashed a spiraling blast of blazing fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With aBOOM, the ground exploded, several orange-bodied beasts were flung out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terrifying… Guo Ruiqi’s face turned pale as he clutched Qiao Sang’s coat in panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drillfire Kaka? A mid-tier fire-type beast, but the attack just now… was grass-type.The mismatch was strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang analyzed quickly, then remembered her supposed teammate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xu Gehung.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla took a split second to recall that was her alias, then replied coolly, “Understood.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned to her pet, a blue bird resting on Yabao’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bird blinked innocently, as if saying,Why are you staring at me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla’s mouth twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enlarge. Stay alert.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Suimian!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bird spread its wings, flew aside, and began to grow in size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, silence again. No more attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang scanned the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can you sense Lele Seed?” She asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d already learned that Guo Ruiqi’s sensing range was about 112 meters. Since Yabao was hovering roughly 100 meters up, he should be able to sense anything nearby once they landed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ruiqi focused… then shook his head in disappointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nothing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected… Qiao Sang thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Secret Realm was huge, and a hundred meters was nothing. Finding it instantly was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lele Seed was a grass-type beast. Even if a Dull-headed Swallow had captured it, it wouldn’t keep it airborne the whole time. The odds were high it was still on the ground. Searching from below would be better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ll move on foot.” Qiao Sang decided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it.” Mikayla said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao dove toward the forest floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just before landing, another surge of massive spikes burst from beneath the thick carpet of fallen leaves...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each one towering twenty meters high!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They shot up in an instant, impossible to dodge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Yabao prepared to teleport again, a massive golden sword of light swept down from above, slashing diagonally across the forest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spikes and nearby trees, spanning dozens of meters, were all cleanly severed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, the great trees began collapsing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao leapt onto one falling trunk and landed safely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So strong… Guo Ruiqi’s pupils trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This… this is the power of a B-rank Beast Master?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nice work!” Qiao Sang praised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for Gangbao’s timely Holy Sword, Yabao might’ve had to dodge again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gang Zhan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gangbao fluttered nearby and called humbly, meaning the command was perfectly timed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, having a synced-mind link like this feels incredible, Qiao Sang thought with satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her thought hadn’t even finished forming, yet Gangbao acted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though… it does drain energy fast. She turned to Little Treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Energy Restorer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xun xun~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little creature pulled out a vial and handed it to Gangbao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Qiao Sang looked to Guo Ruiqi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keep sensing for Lele Seed. The moment you feel something, report.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!” Guo Ruiqi said quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she addressedXu Gehung.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You handle aerial surveillance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang turned her head, and found hercold and calmteammate staring at Gangbao in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s wrong?” She asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s wrong?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You seriously don’t realize?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gangbao’s Holy Sword...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s a Super-tier skill!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That made it three of her beasts, all still at the General-level, who had mastered and unleashed Super-tier skills!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mikayla’s mind was reeling, but after so many recent shocks, her tolerance had grown. Keeping her composure, she muttered, “I was just… surprised that your General-level beast can use the Holy Sword skill.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected of someone my level… she could even tell its rank just by its size.Qiao Sang thought, pleased. She was about to reply but then the ground below began sinking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soil turned to quicksand, spreading rapidly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Qiao!” Guo Ruiqi cried, grabbing her clothes, panic in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d seen enough shows to know:Powerful Beast Masters were always called “Old [Name].” So “Old Qiao!” it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who are you calling ‘Old’?!Qiao Sang almost snapped but there were bigger problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hellfire!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao teleported to solid ground and slammed his paw down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth exploded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blazing magma burst from below, a surge of burning energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Move!” Qiao Sang shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, Yabao teleported everyone back into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below, the ground convulsed, then came a deafening boom and a beast’s agonized scream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the scorched soil burst a massive creature, nine meters tall, its lower half and jaw brown like bark, its head covered in leaves, its entire body made of stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the real attacker revealed itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang’s eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it shows itself at last…\u003C\u002Fp>",2010,"2026-06-06T02:23:30.155Z",1,"novelbin.me","02e6921158d68ab6e46391289b9b24ac3171c666d93fb558be1bdbd5d997def7","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-916","beast-taming-starting-from-zero-chapter-914",1023,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-starting-from-zero-cover.jpg"]
