Chapter 193: There

The next day, Qiao Sang woke up and instinctively reached out to the side, wanting to grab her phone to check the time.

As a result, the moment she reached out, she touched the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost's claw.

Qiao Sang's spirit lifted, and she sat up at once.

"You actually didn't sleep this morning?!"

For several days in a row, she had woken up in the morning to see the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost in a sleeping state. Seeing it wide awake at first glance today, Qiao Sang felt extremely surprised.

Books say that some pet beasts are prone to sleepiness during certain developmental stages, and they will return to normal once development is complete.

Could it be that the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost is like this?

Thinking about it this way, it seems the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost's size does look a bit taller than before...

"Xun~"

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost pretended not to understand its Beast Tamer's words and blinked its eyes innocently.

What Qiao Sang didn't know was that before going to sleep last night, she was afraid the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost would lose track of time while learning, so she set a 3-hour time limit on the virtual helmet, which caused the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost to be forcibly logged off halfway through, and that was why it was still energetic early in the morning.

What can one million do in the Beast Taming society?

Buy ten Fire-Tooth Dogs, or buy one Bubble Bell, or perhaps buy the horn of a Little Horned Dragon.

In short, if you only care about buying and not raising, there are quite a lot of choices.

Besides pet beasts, daily life can also be improved a lot.

Qiao Sang had become rich overnight again, so naturally, she had to treat herself well.

Early in the morning, she decided not to eat the buy-one-get-one-free bread from the supermarket anymore, but instead went to the most expensive breakfast shop nearby and very generously ordered everything on the menu that was popular.

It cost 567 in total.

Among them, Like Ya Bao and the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost ate 552, and she ate 15.

Qiao Sang ate her 10 sticky rice and drank her 5 soy milk, feeling that even with a net worth of a million, her life hadn't improved much.

Where exactly did the problem lie...

"Ya!"

Just as Qiao Sang was deep in thought, Like Ya Bao pushed the empty bowl in front of it forward with its claw, indicating that it wanted another bowl.

"Boss, another bowl of Fire-Lone Rice!"

"Coming right up!"

It didn't take long for the boss to walk over with a bowl of Fire-Lone Rice.

"Here you go, 66."

Qiao Sang silently took out the money. So, the problem lay here...

Arriving at school, Qiao Sang unexpectedly saw Jin Jin Feifan at the entrance of the training grounds.

"Why are you here?" Qiao Sang walked up and asked.

The sophomore school team and the freshman school team have different training grounds and training times. Usually, at this time of day, the people on the freshman school team should have just woken up.

Jin Jin Feifan's eyes lit up when he saw Qiao Sang. He fidgeted for a moment and said embarrassedly, "I was waiting for you."

Qiao Sang was a bit surprised.

Jin Jin Feifan belonged to the type of person who was genuinely socially anxious. Let alone in reality, he didn't even like interacting with people online. She didn't expect him to come looking for her directly.

"Is something the matter?" Qiao Sang asked curiously.

"School starts in five days. I'm a bit nervous, so I wanted to talk to you," Jin Jin Feifan said after hesitating for a moment.

Qiao Sang was stunned: "Why didn't you find me on your phone to talk?"

"My phone is broken, and I haven't taken it to get fixed yet," Jin Jin Feifan said shyly.

No wonder. She was just thinking, how could a socially anxious person not use their phone and come to find someone in 3D... Qiao Sang comforted him: "It's okay, don't be nervous. Just chat with your classmates when the time comes; you'll get familiar after a few sentences. If it really doesn't work, summon your Little Ball Pu; it will definitely increase the bond."

In the Beast Taming society, only by chatting about topics related to pet beasts can you quickly close the distance between each other.

Jin Jin Feifan was stunned for a long time after hearing this, then his face turned bright red, and his voice raised slightly: "I'm not nervous about that!"

Qiao Sang was bewildered: "Then what are you nervous about?"

"Have you not been looking at the group messages?" Jin Jin Feifan explained: "On the day school starts, there will be a strength demonstration segment for the people on the school team. All freshmen can initiate challenges. If we lose, it's very likely we will become substitutes or be kicked out of the school team directly."

"There's such a thing?!" Qiao Sang was excited.

"Ya!" Like Ya Bao was also excited.

"Why do I feel like you guys seem very happy..." Jin Jin Feifan hesitated.

"Ya ya!"

Like Ya Bao nodded vigorously.

Demonstrating one's own strength is, of course, a happy thing.

"No way." Qiao Sang, on the other hand, awkwardly pressed down on Like Ya Bao's nodding motion.

Seeing Jin Jin Feifan looking at her with a strange expression, she paused, changed her tone, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect there to be such a thing!"

Jin Jin Feifan: "..."

"Then are there any restrictions?" Qiao Sang continued to ask: "For example, if we win one match, can other people continue to challenge us?"

Jin Jin Feifan nodded, his mood low: "There are no restrictions in this regard. It was all said in the group. If you win, the pet beast's state will be restored by the school doctor as soon as possible, and then you continue to wait for others to challenge you."

"The school will decide whether or not to let you stay on the school team based on your performance in the battles and the number of times you win."

This is too good! Doesn't that mean as long as you don't lose, you can keep competing, and most importantly, the points can keep adding up... Qiao Sang was ecstatic inside, but considering Jin Jin Feifan's feelings, she didn't show it on her face, but instead sighed and said: "This is too difficult for us."

"Who's to say it isn't." Jin Jin Feifan sighed and said.

When the two of them had chatted around this topic for nearly ten minutes, Jin Jin Feifan hesitated for a long time before finally stating his ultimate purpose.

"I can't leave the school. Can you help me take my phone out to get it fixed?"

"Sure!" Qiao Sang, in a great mood, agreed immediately.

After Jin Jin Feifan left, Qiao Sang hummed a tune and walked into the training grounds with a face full of smiles.

As soon as Wang Yao turned her head, she saw Qiao Sang walking with a spring in her step and Like Ya Bao wagging its tail. She couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's the matter, so happy?"

"Nothing, just helped someone find a lost pet beast when I was out buying things last night, and the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost happened to learn a skill in the process." Qiao Sang smiled and scratched her head.

"Xun~"

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost appeared from the top of its Beast Tamer's head and nodded.

"What skill is it?" Wang Yao asked.

"Just Dark Shadow Control." Qiao Sang answered honestly.

In Qiao Sang's view, there was nothing to hide about a pet beast's strength; it was just that there was usually no opportunity to show it, and no one asked her.

When a pet beast evolves, learns a new skill, or grows in some aspect, it is a happy thing, and basically, no one would hide it.

Most Beast Tamers, even if the proficiency of a certain skill of their pet beast increases by one level, would be dying to post it on their social media to show off.

Some even go so far as to organize a drinking party to treat people to a meal because their pet beast has made progress; these are all common occurrences.

Qiao Sang was still considered low-key; otherwise, she would have to post on social media every three days.

"Dark Shadow Control?" Wang Yao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Hahaha, Qiao Sang, I didn't know you were so humorous."

"You don't believe me?" Qiao Sang looked at her.

Wang Yao said speechlessly: "Nonsense, only a fool would believe that. Dark Shadow Control, eh? That's Dark Shadow Control! Although I don't have a Ghost-type pet beast, I know it's a high-tier skill. Have you ever seen a beginner-level pet beast that can learn a high-tier skill?"

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said: "It seems like only Like Ya Bao and the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost."

Wang Yao: "..."
