Chapter 396

~8 min read 1,430 words

Deep Sea Mantis Hotel.

At breakfast time, just as Qiao Sang was about to go out to the revolving restaurant on the top floor to eat, she heard a knock at the door.

"It's me." A slightly familiar voice came from outside the door.

Qiao Sang walked over to open the door, and standing outside was a handsome man with dyed blonde hair.

It was none other than Professor Jiang, who had sent them here in the middle of the night.

"Professor Jiang, why are you here?" Qiao Sang asked.

Jiang Xiu glanced inside unobtrusively, then his gaze paused as it fixed on a certain pet beast he had dreamed of seeing; he then withdrew his gaze nonchalantly and said as if nothing had happened:

"Ice... a pet beast's breakfast is best eaten before nine o'clock. I made some special energy pills and thought I'd bring them over to you."

As he spoke, he handed over the three boxes he was holding.

Don't let Jiang Xiu's calm exterior fool you; his inner monologue had already exploded:

"Holy crap! Holy crap! It's an Ice Luqiya! Ahhh! It just looked at me! No, no, I must stay calm! The Ice Luqiya species doesn't like people or pet beasts that are too enthusiastic when they first meet. I must stay composed!"

He actually delivered them to the room in person... Qiao Sang took the boxes and said with emotion: "Thank you, Professor Jiang."

"It's only right," Jiang Xiu smiled.

After saying this, he didn't leave, just stood there smiling at Qiao Sang.

Qiao Sang understood and asked: "Would you like to come in and sit for a while?"

"Okay!" Jiang Xiu's eyes lit up, and he stepped inside impatiently.

The boxes containing the three portions of energy pills were all labeled with the names of the specific pet beasts, and Qiao Sang placed them one by one in front of Like Ya Bao and the others.

Like Ya Bao and the others took a bite and curved their eyes; it was clearly to their liking.

Taking advantage of the time Lubao was burying its head in eating the energy pills, Jiang Xiu stared at it with burning eyes, his expression slightly tense.

Seeing this scene, Qiao Sang had the feeling that it was just as she expected.

She asked: "Lubao, how does it taste?"

"Lu."

Lubao, who was burying its head in eating, lifted its face and called out coldly, indicating it was alright.

Then, it continued to lower its head to eat the energy pills.

As an A-level breeder, although he had a certain level of interpretation for the actions and sounds of pet beasts, Jiang Xiu still couldn't help but ask:

"What did the Ice Luqiya just say?"

Qiao Sang translated: "It said it's very delicious."

Lubao paused upon hearing this, then continued eating the energy pills without refuting it.

Jiang Xiu's expression was excited; he couldn't wait to go back and make another hundred portions right now.

At this moment, his phone rang.

Qiao Sang picked it up and took a look.

The caller was Xu Yixuan.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Sang answered and asked.

Xu Yixuan's voice came from the speaker: "Have you eaten breakfast? Do you want to go together? I heard that the breakfast here also includes energy pills for various types of pet beasts."

Qiao Sang replied: "I haven't eaten breakfast yet, I'll go up in a bit, but Professor Jiang has already delivered the nutritional meals for the pet beasts."

"Huh?" Xu Yixuan immediately said: "Professor Jiang delivered them to the room in person? Then I'll go up for breakfast later, so I don't miss Professor Jiang if he comes by while I'm not there."

"Okay." Qiao Sang hung up the phone and turned her head to look at Professor Jiang.

She saw that his hands were empty; he hadn't brought any other boxes at all.

Holy crap, I was too excited when I came, I was only thinking about the Ice Luqiya and left the other people's energy pills at home... Jiang Xiu had received nourishment, so his hearing was top-notch; he heard the voice on the other end of the phone clearly, and he stood up and said honestly:

"I'll go first. I forgot to bring the energy pills for the others, I'm going back to get them now."

Qiao Sang: "... Okay."

At 10:30 PM, Qiao Sang was half-leaning against the head of the bed, holding her phone and watching an interview video from the Guyu region.

In the footage, a female reporter in a dress was conducting random interviews with passersby on the street:

"Hello, may I ask if you know about the National Campus Beast Taming League?"

The passerby interviewed was an elderly grandfather with graying hair, who said quite proudly: "Of course I know, my grandson is participating in the National Campus Beast Taming League."

The female reporter's eyes lit up, and she immediately became interested: "Would it be convenient for you to reveal your grandson's name?"

"Liu Hengzhi," the grandfather replied.

The female reporter continued to ask: "May I ask what grade your grandson is in?"

"Third year of high school."

"Then will you go to the scene to support him?"

"No."

"Why?" The female reporter was a bit stunned.

"Because my grandson has already been eliminated."

The female reporter was taken aback for a moment, just about to offer comfort, when the grandfather immediately looked at the camera and said earnestly: "I will go to the scene, but I am supporting the contestant from the Yuhua region named Qiao Sang! Even if my grandson hadn't been eliminated, I would still support her!"

Five seconds later, the female reporter stopped a girl in a school uniform and interviewed her:

"May I ask if you know about the National Campus Beast Taming League?"

"I know."

"Then do you have a contestant you support?"

The girl grabbed the microphone and brought it close to her mouth, looking at the camera and shouting: "Go Qiao Sang! Go Ice Luqiya! I will support you!"

"Okay, thank you for accepting the interview." The female reporter quickly took back the microphone.

Then, she found a passerby in a formal suit, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who looked like a highly educated man at first glance, and interviewed him:

"May I ask if you know about the National Campus Beast Taming League?"

"I know, I support contestant Qiao Sang." After saying this, the passerby walked away.

Qiao Sang was watching with great interest when a message popped up:

【Xu Yixuan: Did you watch the video I just sent you?】

Qiao Sang replied:

【Just saw halfway】

【Xu Yixuan: Let me just tell you directly! The passersby interviewed in the Guyu region are all supporting you!】

【The problem of slow updates for new chapters has finally been solved on an app that can change sources. Download the source-changing app here to view the latest chapters of this book on multiple sites simultaneously.】

Qiao Sang responded with a straight face:

【Is that so? I haven't finished watching yet, let me keep watching】

Pressing send, Qiao Sang continued to watch the interview video with a pleasant mood.

The people in the Guyu region are friendlier than she imagined...

The next day.

9:24 AM.

On the waterway, Qiao Sang sat on the back of a Sea Salt Lizard and asked: "Professor Jiang, are you really okay today?"

Jiang Xiu smiled: "Taking good care of you during this period is my biggest task. Don't be afraid to trouble me; if there's anything, just call. We people in the Guyu region are like this, enthusiastic. If you develop here in the future, I guarantee you'll feel like you're staying in your own home."

"There are many places to play here too; you can play on land, and you can play underwater. You can play however you like."

Jiang Xiu bragged about the Guyu region for a long time, then thought of something and asked:

"By the way, what are you going to the Beast Taming Center for?"

Qiao Sang said: "To post a mission."

"What mission?" Jiang Xiu turned his head to look at Qiao Sang: "Maybe I can help you, so you won't have to make a trip to the Beast Taming Center."

Qiao Sang hesitated for a moment: "It's about Lubao."

Jiang Xiu's spirits were immediately lifted: "Tell me more in detail!"

Qiao Sang explained the situation roughly and added: "That's how it is, so I want to post a mission to see if there is any skill that can make Lubao's memories concrete."
