Chapter 1046: Detecting Genes

Qingbao's expression is peaceful.

Qiao Sang sees Little Xunbao's intention, coughs, and repeats the point:

"This move will return the damage of the last move received to the opponent with great force."

Meaning, change to another opponent. Qingbao is low-tier and fragile, it can't withstand the damage.

"Xunxun..."

Little Xunbao understands. Looking at Qingbao's small size, it feels a pang of conscience and shifts its gaze to Gangbao.

At the same time, the semi-transparent barrier around it disappears.

"Steel Sword."

Gangbao receives Little Xunbao's gaze and, without the slightest hesitation, flaps its wings forward with force.

Little Xunbao circulates energy, and a black light flashes on its body.

Two blades condensed from air concentrate and attack in the direction where Little Xunbao is.

"Bang!"

With a loud noise, in the blast of air, a black beam of light whistles out, hitting Gangbao's body directly with a posture of certain hit.

"Steel Sword..."

Gangbao flaps its wings, unharmed, only looking at Little Xunbao with a hint of confusion in its eyes.

It seems that the damage caused by the other party is just strengthened on its basis. After this move's tier gets higher in the future, the returned damage should be stronger... Gangbao is also smart, knowing the damage will be returned, and controlled the force of the attack... Qiao Sang has a rough idea in her heart, then thinks of something, looks at Gangbao, and asks deliberately:

"Did you also feel pain when Little Xunbao was attacked just now?"

"Steel Sword."

Gangbao nods, indicating that's right.

"Xunxun?"

Little Xunbao reveals a confused expression, not understanding much.

It was attacked, why is the little brother in pain?

Qiao Sang explains with a smile:

"It's the Mutual Destruction characteristic. Only with the Mutual Destruction characteristic will the other party feel pain when you yourself are attacked."

"Steel Sword."

Gangbao reveals an "Oh, so that's how it is" expression.

"Xunxun..."

Little Xunbao is stunned for a moment, then lets out a cry with a peaceful expression.

So it's the Mutual Destruction characteristic...

Half a minute later.

The effect of Healing Sound Wave disappears.

"Xunxun!"

"Xunxun!"

Little Xunbao floats excitedly in the high altitude.

Mutual Destruction!

Mutual Destruction!

It awakened the Mutual Destruction characteristic!

It seems that after Little Xunbao evolved into King-tier, the duration of Healing Sound Wave's effect on it has become much shorter... Qiao Sang thinks.

"Xunxun..."

Suddenly, Little Xunbao thinks of something, looks at Like Ya Bao, and holds its head high and chest out.

That look is like a corporate slave who just won the first prize in the lottery, and the leader happens to be passing by, looking at the leader.

"Yaya?"

Like Ya Bao is looked at inexplicably.

"Steel Sword."

At this moment, Gangbao flies over and lets out a cry of good intention in a low voice, indicating not to forget that Like Ya Bao has Blaze.

"Xunxun..."

Little Xunbao quickly manages its expression and grins at Like Ya Bao.

Like Ya Bao: "..."

It heard it all.

However, Like Ya Bao doesn't care. It has always been very tolerant of its companions.

"Let's try another one of your characteristics." Qiao Sang says.

"Xunxun!"

Little Xunbao raises its claw, putting on a "wait a moment" posture.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Sang asks.

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao lets out a cry, indicating it feels it isn't very proficient with the Mutual Destruction characteristic yet and wants to try again.

As it speaks, it looks at Lubao with an eager expression.

"Ice Emperor."

Lubao understands Little Xunbao's look, and cold air visible to the naked eye starts to radiate from its body.

"Xunxun~"

This time, Little Xunbao doesn't feel any fear, but instead sets up a posture ready for battle at any time.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang coughs and says:

"Forgot to say, this Mutual Destruction characteristic cannot be triggered continuously. You have already triggered it once on Gangbao just now. I don't know if it will work this time, but it's good, we can try how many times it can be triggered continuously at most."

"Xunxun!"

Little Xunbao hears this, its body stiffens, and it quickly lets out a cry, indicating it's not appropriate, better to see what other new characteristics and skills are more important first.

I knew it... Qiao Sang restrains the smile at the corner of her mouth and says:

"Nightmare characteristic, can deal damage to opponents in a sleep state. You can use Hypnosis to cooperate with the characteristic."

She learned about this characteristic in detail later. Generally speaking, dealing damage to an opponent in a sleep state will wake the opponent up, but Nightmare won't.

This characteristic will make the target in a sleep state fall into a nightmare, causing mental damage, but it's hard to wake up.

A pet beast possessing the Nightmare characteristic, in the situation where it can also cast Hypnosis, if it doesn't actively control the dream, the dream the target has will automatically become a nightmare, causing damage.

It can be said that it is adding a damage-increasing buff to Hypnosis.

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao's eyes light up when it hears this, and it wants to try it immediately.

"Steel Sword."

In order to avoid the boss making a fool of itself like the previous two times, Gangbao volunteers to let out a cry, indicating it can help with the experiment.

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao pats Gangbao's wing, indicating thank you for your hard work, and then blue light glows in its eyes.

Gangbao's eyes close slowly, falling into a sleep state, and it falls downward.

A black shadow suddenly emerges from the ground where it fell, lifting Gangbao up and placing it steadily on the ground.

Qiao Sang and Like Ya Bao and the others all lean over, surrounding Gangbao, looking down at it.

"Steel Sword..."

Gangbao's expression is struggling, talking in its sleep, as if it has already fallen into a nightmare.

At the same time, Qiao Sang's head suddenly feels pain, as if a needle has been stuck in.

She subconsciously covers her head, arching her body like a shrimp, and says with difficulty:

"Quick, quick, wake Gangbao up!"

"Xunxun!"

Little Xunbao is startled when it sees its Beast Tamer's appearance and quickly sticks out its tongue at Gangbao's face, licking it hard.

"Steel Sword..."

Gangbao wakes up from its dream and opens its eyes.

"Phew..."

Qiao Sang's headache disappears, and she exhales a long breath of relief.

Almost forgot that Gangbao's strength is its own defense, not mental defense, and the Nightmare characteristic causes mental damage.

Lubao says nothing, only silently shines the dark blue light from the gem on its forehead onto Qiao Sang and Gangbao at the same time.

Qiao Sang and Gangbao's brows relax synchronously.

"Yaya?"

Like Ya Bao looks at Gangbao and lets out a curious cry, indicating what did you dream about?

"Steel Sword..."

Gangbao is silent for two seconds and lets out a cry, indicating it dreamed that it didn't meet you guys when it was at the Super Su Xing.

It dreamed that it found the location where that human worked.

But its Beast Tamer wasn't there this time.

It stayed at the Super Su Xing.

So this was a nightmare for Gangbao... Qiao Sang feels moved in her heart, plus a feeling of heartache.

Gangbao looks at its Beast Tamer.

Eye to eye, the emotion is rich.

"Yaya..."

In this moving atmosphere, Like Ya Bao lets out a cry of emotion, indicating it didn't expect so many things could be dreamed in such a short time...

Qiao Sang: "..."

Gangbao: "..."

"Xunxun?"

Little Xunbao lets out a cry full of expectation, indicating does it have any other skills awakened?

Qiao Sang looks at it and says seriously:

"Shadow Penetrate."

Shadow Penetrate? Little Xunbao is stunned, then its eyes light up abruptly.

"Xunxun?"

Qiao Sang smiles:

"That's right, it's the move the Witch Secret Demon used last time at the Lost Town."

"Xunxun!"

Little Xunbao floats around in excitement for several circles, then reveals a serious expression and starts circulating energy.

The next second, a black hole with a diameter of more than one meter appears out of thin air in front of it.

Little Xunbao looks at the black hole, puts its claws on its waist, and laughs up at the sky:

"Xunxunxun..."

7:00 PM.

Living room.

Qiao Sang is eating dinner at the dining table.

Like Ya Bao and the others are also eating energy pills on the side.

Teacher Mi Jiala appears in the living room out of thin air. She quickly glances and asks:

"Where is the Night Ring King?"

Qiao Sang is not surprised by this and says calmly: "Training outside."

Teacher Mi Jiala is a bit surprised:

"It's still so diligent? Hasn't the Clothes-Changing Totem already been captured?"

Qiao Sang says helplessly:

"It likes the characteristics and skills it awakened this time very much, so it wants to practice the proficiency of these characteristics and skills early."

Although her tone is helpless, it still contains obvious laughter.

Honestly, she originally thought that calling Little Xunbao to train would require constant urging like before. She didn't expect Little Xunbao to practice consciously.

This feeling is like a student suddenly learning a subject they are interested in, even if they use their spare time, they learn it consciously.

She feels very gratified.

Teacher Mi Jiala comes to the position opposite Qiao Sang, pulls out a chair, and asks:

"Have the characteristics and skills the Night Ring King newly awakened all been known?"

Qiao Sang says "Hmm" and tells about Little Xunbao's characteristics and skills.

Teacher Mi Jiala is silent for a long time and asks:

"Can these skills already be successfully cast by the Night Ring King?"

After getting along with Qiao Sang for more than half a year, her endurance has become much stronger. Even if she heard "Shadow Penetrate," no matter how shocked she was inwardly, she was stable on the surface.

Qiao Sang says modestly:

"It still needs more practice."

As soon as she finishes speaking, a black hole appears out of thin air above the dining table. Little Xunbao drills out most of its body from it, picks up a tree fruit on the dining table, grins at its Beast Tamer, and drills back in.

The black hole disappears.

The living room falls into silence.

A few seconds later, Teacher Mi Jiala says in a trance:

"The Night Ring King's Shadow Penetrate is actually already cast so proficiently..."

Qiao Sang says happily:

"It practiced for most of the day today."

Do you think that under normal circumstances, most of the day's practice can bring a newly awakened super-tier skill to this degree? No, under normal circumstances, super-tier skills can't even be successfully cast... Teacher Mi Jiala takes a deep breath, eases her mood, remembers the important matter, and says:

"I helped you contact Teacher Dalia. Tomorrow you go to her place to detect the Little Thunder Dragon's genes."

Qiao Sang's first thought is: 100 points for one detection.

The second thought is: The principal just gave 10,000 points, so 100 points is not impossible to spend.

Honestly, with her cheat, whether a pet beast is pure-blooded has become not that important.

Just as Qiao Sang is about to speak, Teacher Mi Jiala says again:

"Don't refuse. I know you don't value whether a pet beast is pure-blooded, but don't forget, your goal is the Star Cup."

Qiao Sang is silent for a moment and nods:

"I understand."

At the same time, the pet beast egg placed on the desk in the room shakes slightly.

Teacher Mi Jiala finishes talking about the important matter and leaves quickly.

Qiao Sang finishes eating and cleans up the table.

Suddenly, a strange gale blows in the living room.

Qiao Sang's ponytail flies. 【1

She realized something and looked at Qingbao in the center of the gale.

She saw that Qingbao, who had previously maintained a peaceful expression, was now staring fixedly at Little Xunbao, who was training outside.

It seems the effect of the Healing Sound Wave has worn off... Qiao Sang understood in a second.

She was a bit surprised; she hadn't expected Qingbao to still be dwelling on this matter after such a long time.

Generally speaking, people and pet beasts with bad tempers only get angrier the more they think back on things after a Healing Sound Wave, while those with good tempers let the previous matters slide.

She had originally assumed Qingbao would be the latter.

Qiao Sang called out:

"Qingbao."

"Qingqing?"

Qingbao turned its head and let out a cute call, but the gale surrounding its body made it clear that its inner state was still very agitated.

Qiao Sang hesitated: "You..."

Qingbao seemed to realize what its Beast Tamer was about to say, and its body stiffened.

"Are you in a bad mood?" Qiao Sang asked.

"Qingqing."

Qingbao was stunned for a moment, then honestly nodded.

As it nodded, the gale around its body diminished slightly.

"Is it because Little Xunbao wanted to find you as a training partner earlier?" Qiao Sang asked again.

"Qingqing..."

Qingbao revealed a wronged expression and nodded again.

It looks down on me.

"That's because Little Xunbao knows you would go the easiest on it." Qiao Sang said while lying through her teeth: "It has been training with Like Ya Bao and the others for the past two days; if it really looked down on you, and it was just battle training to consume energy, it would definitely choose you, but it didn't."

"Qingqing..."

Qingbao was stunned for a moment, and the gale around its body stalled.

So that's how it is...

"Of course." Qiao Sang nodded with certainty.

"Qingqing..."

The gale around Qingbao's body dissipated completely.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since Qingbao evolved and gained memory inheritance, its temper has grown, but fortunately, it is still easy to coax...

Gangbao silently glanced at its Beast Tamer.

Qiao Sang finished cleaning the dining table and returned to her room.

Qingbao glanced in the direction of the room, then silently turned into wind and arrived at the open-air training ground.

Her Beast Tamer has too heavy a filter for Little Xunbao; she can't even see through this. What "knowing you'd go easiest on it"—it clearly just looks down on its attack power.

A gale raged on the open-air training ground.

Qingbao looked at Little Xunbao, who was training, with a dissatisfied expression.

Blow you to death, blow you to death...

"Xunxun~"

Little Xunbao's golden braids flew as it happily shuttled through black holes, appearing, shuttling, appearing, as if it didn't feel the surrounding gale at all.

The next day.

Early morning.

Qiao Sang washed up simply, ate breakfast, first went to a nearby pharmacy to buy ten bottles of Malice-Stimulating Potion, then waited for Teacher Teacher Mi Jiala, and holding the pet beast egg, went with her to the Imperial Beast Taming Academy, arriving at a gene testing room.

The door to the gene testing room was half-open; in front of various instruments stood a lady who looked very young, wearing a white lab coat, with brown hair tied in a low ponytail.

Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, she looked up and smiled:

"You're here. If you're testing genes, pay the credits first."
