Qiao Sang asked with a smile:
"Do you need to water regularly?"
"Xiaxia."
Shalala called, indicating that she only needed to water every now and then, which would make her grow faster.
"Gangqiu."
Gangbao helped to translate.
It turns out that watering helps Shalala grow faster. The book never mentioned this... Qiao Sang sighed inwardly, while watering and speaking gently:
"In the future, if you need watering, just let me know."
"Xiaxia."
Shalala displayed a happy smile and nodded.
After watering, Gangbao flew out of the room, and Qiao Sang returned to bed, picking up the book once more.
Just then, the phone screen lit up.
Qiao Sang, sharp-eyed, noticed it and picked up the phone, discovering it was a message from the official backend of the Imperial Beastmaster Academy. Instinctively, she clicked it open to find a private message:
[Zhuang**: I have an SS-level Pure Night Stone, I only need an equivalent level Ice Heaven Stone in exchange, do you have one?]
SS-level Pure Night Stone?!
Qiao Sangās eyes lit up, and she quickly typed:
[I donāt have one. Iām currently on Flame Sky Star and canāt get an Ice Heaven Stone. Name your price, and I can exchange with points.]
There was no reply from the other party.
After about ten minutes, unable to resist, Qiao Sang sent another message:
[Really, just name your price. I really need the Pure Night Stone. If you donāt need points, let me know any materials or items exclusive to Flame Sky Star, and Iāll find a way to get them for you.]
Still no reply from the other party.
Just as Qiao Sang was feeling disappointed, a new message finally appeared in the chat interface:
[Zhuang**: An SS-level Ice Dissolving Crystal, if you can find and send it to me within one month, Iāll do the trade with you.]
Ice Dissolving Crystal, an Ice-type material from Flame Sky Star, can enhance the cold qi control of Ice-type Pet Beasts... Without hesitation, Qiao Sang typed and sent:
[Alright!]
Although SS-level materials are hard to find, agreeing to this condition is definitely not wrong. The Imperial Beastmaster Academy has Guilun Saiāer. As long as the SS-level Ice Dissolving Crystal is found within a month, it can be directly sent over by Guilun Saiāer... Qiao Sang restrained her excitement and dialed Kang Yangās number.
They had exchanged contact information previously at the Pet Beast Spa.
After a few rings, the call connected.
"Junior, why did you suddenly call me? Is there something you need?" Kang Yangās voice came through the speaker.
"Senior, do you know where I can find any information about SS-level Ice Dissolving Crystals?" Qiao Sang got straight to the point and asked.
"SS-level Ice Dissolving Crystal..." Kang Yang said with difficulty, "You know about Flame Sky Starās weather conditions; Ice-type materials are generally scarce, let alone ones of such high level."
Hearing this, Qiao Sang felt a bit disappointed.
Kang Yang continued:
"However, you could try visiting Ice Island. Itās considered the coldest place on Flame Sky Star, where itās frozen all year round, and many high-level Ice-type materials originate from there."
Pausing for a moment, he added:
"Itās known as Ice Spiritās territory. If you do go there, just be careful not to get too close to its dwelling."
Qiao Sangās hope was reignited, and she replied:
"Got it, thank you, Senior."
After speaking, she hung up the phone.
Ice Spirit, an Ice-type Emperor-level Pet Beast, with a bad temper, likes to freeze humans and Pet Beasts it fancies and take them to its dwelling as decorations... Information about it flashed through Qiao Sangās mind, but she didnāt feel particularly nervous.
With Teacher Mikaela around, nothing should go wrong.
The important thing is to find the SS-level Ice Dissolving Crystal as soon as possible, with only a month to do so.
Thinking of this, Qiao Sang picked up her phone and began searching for the address of Ice Island.
...
The next day, early morning.
Mikaela sat at the dining table, eating a simple breakfast, and said:
"Iāll be going out for a bit later."
Qiao Sang paused for a moment and said:
"Iād like to make a trip to Ice Island."
Mikaela looked over: "Why?"
Qiao Sang briefly explained about needing to exchange Ice Dissolving Crystals for Pure Night Stones.
After listening, Mikaela asked, "When do you plan to go?"
"As soon as possible. They only gave me a month," Qiao Sang said.
"I see," Mikaela took a sip of milk, saying, "Then pack up, weāll head out today."
Huh? Qiao Sang was a bit stunned and asked:
"Didnāt you say you had important things to do for the next few days?"
Mikaela calmly said, "My affairs canāt be finished in a day or two. Compared to them, your matter is more important."
Pen Jiami focused on eating the Energy Pills, seemingly not hearing the conversation.
The Dragon King rolled its eyes.
Teacher... Qiao Sang felt a wave of emotion.
