Chapter 805: Where Have I Seen This Before?

Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

A pleasant female voice came over the public announcement system: "Dear passengers, all the wild pet beasts in the airport have been driven out. However, due to the damage caused by the wild beasts, all flights are currently delayed. New departure times will be announced in real-time based on actual conditions. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and will do our best to provide the assistance and support you need. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.”

The passengers in the waiting lounge erupted in cheers.

Rather than blaming the airport for negligence, what they felt first and foremost was the joy and relief of surviving a disaster.

---

Tarmac.

The staff were busy repairing the ground and inspecting damage to the aircraft.

Although they had restrained themselves from using large-scale attack skills during the battle, the number of wild pet beasts that broke in was simply too many. There was even a second wave, which inevitably caused some damage to the aircraft.

Fortunately, the second wave came quickly and left just as fast, so the damage wasn’t too severe.

Achill looked at Qiao Sang with a sincerely grateful smile.

“This time we really have you to thank. If it weren’t for your help, the wild beasts wouldn’t have been resolved so quickly.”

Qiao Sang smiled back: “Helping everyone is also helping myself. After all, I was here too.”

If it weren’t for her, this probably wouldn’t have happened in the first place…

What a noble child,

Achill thought.

She helped so much and yet doesn't seek credit…

His gaze softened even more.

Then he suddenly remembered something, pulled out a business card from his pocket, and handed it over: “This is my business card. If you ever come to the 30th District again and need anything, feel free to find me.”

I probably won’t be coming back to the 30th District…

Qiao Sang took the card, glanced at it, and tucked it away: “Thank you, I will.”

“Where are you headed?” Achill asked.

“The 1st District.” Qiao Sang replied.

The 1st District… Makes sense. Only a place like the 1st District could produce a prodigy like this.

Achill subconsciously glanced at the unfamiliar pet beasts beside her.

The 30th District was teeming with wild pet beasts. You could see almost every breed here, even rare ones weren’t uncommon.

Beast masters from the lower and middle ten districts who wanted to contract rare beasts but didn’t have the budget would often come to the 30th District hoping to get lucky.

But with so many species in the 30th District, Achill didn’t recognize a single one of the beasts around her.

Just how rare were they?

Achill looked back at her and asked: “Which flight are you on?”

“The 3:30 AM one.” Qiao Sang smiled bitterly.

“I was just about to board when this happened.”

Achill pondered for a moment and said: “It’ll likely take several hours to inspect all the planes here one by one. If you're in a hurry, another flight heading to the 1st District will arrive in about ten minutes. I can help you switch flights.” ṟάΝƟ₿ЁȘ

Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up instantly: “Really?”

“Of course.” Achill smiled.

Passengers flying from the 30th District to the upper districts were always the fewest. He was confident there would be plenty of open seats.

“That’s wonderful, thank you so much!” Qiao Sang said gratefully.

She had just dealt with those five people and really didn’t want to deal with any new headaches, especially that A-rank Beast master.

Who knew what tricks he had up his sleeve?

“It’s us who should be thanking you.” Achill said, then turned and began calling the ticket staff to arrange her flight change.

Qiao Sang pulled out her phone and redialed Mr. Pirite’s number.

“Ring ring~”

This time, the call connected. A familiar voice came through the speaker: “Hello?”

Finally!

Qiao Sang’s spirits lifted. She asked eagerly: “Teacher, are you okay?”

“I’m fine.” Pirite’s voice sounded strange, like he’d just finished crying and was still stuffy: “You haven’t boarded yet?”

“Not yet, something happened earlier and I had to change flights. I’ll be boarding soon.” Qiao Sang paused, recalling the sound in his voice.

“Are you really okay?”

“I’m fine.” Pirite coughed twice, his voice sounding more normal.

“Just head to the 1st District. Those two people seem to have gotten some intel and left. They’re probably heading your way. I bought a ticket to return tomorrow.”

He paused and choked up slightly, though he quickly composed himself.

“Let’s not talk now. There are still a lot of wild pet beasts on the road.”

Qiao Sang: “…Okay.”

After hanging up, she stared at her phone, deep in thought.

Mr. Pirite had definitely run into trouble. But from the sound of it, it wasn’t life-threatening…

At that moment, Achill came back after hanging up his own call and said with a smile: “Get ready. Your flight’s been successfully changed.”

---

Clearing outside the dense forest.

Pirite set down his phone, tears streaming uncontrollably down his face.

He hadn’t expected the enemy to play dirty, using a beast to release tear powder just to mess up his ability to give commands.

Absolutely vile!

Thank goodness Qiao Sang had already left. If she saw him like this, how could he maintain his dignity as her teacher?

Suddenly, rustling sounds came from nearby.

Pirite’s eyes sharpened, and he turned with a tear-choked voice: “Who’s there?”

“Do si.”

From the tall grass, a Dosidola poked its head out.

“Oh, it’s you…” Pirite said through his tears.

He recognized it as the one who had provided clues about Adinishi to Qiao Sang.

“Do si…”

Dosidola looked around cautiously, then carefully walked over and stopped beside Pirite.

“I don’t have any food on me right now.” Pirite said, seeing its approach and assuming it wanted something to eat.

“Do si?”

Dosidola stared at the tears running down his face, looking puzzled.

“Are you asking why I’m crying?” Pirite asked, tears still flowing.

“Do si.”

Dosidola nodded.

“Because I got hit with tear powder.” Pirite explained.

Upon hearing this, Dosidola suddenly turned and ran into the forest.

Pirite didn’t think much of it and continued to sit there, crying.

He planned to leave after the effects of the tear powder wore off.

A few minutes later, the forest rustled again, something was running toward him.

Pirite wiped his eyes and looked toward the sound, sharp-eyed despite his tears.

It was the same Dosidola from earlier, now back with a green plant in its claws.

“Do si!”

Dosidola stopped in front of him and held out the plant.

“Is this for me?” Pirite asked, hesitant.

“Do si.”

Dosidola nodded.

“What is it?” Pirite asked, still weeping as he accepted it.

“Do si.”

Dosidola raised a claw and pointed to its own nose.

Pirite, who had decent field experience and often worked with pet behavior researchers, immediately understood what Dosidola meant.

“You want me to sniff it?”

“Do si.”

Dosidola nodded again.

Still crying, Pirite lifted the green plant and sniffed it casually.

It wasn’t that he had no caution toward wild pet beasts, but he’d interacted with this Dosidola before and knew it wasn’t malicious. Plus, it was only a mid-level beast, it wasn’t capable of hurting him.

---

“What kind of herb is this? It stings the nose.”

Pirite pulled the green plant away with a look of disgust.

Suddenly, he felt something. He froze, then looked sharply at Dosidola.

“This herb you brought me… does it counteract the tear powder?”

“Do si.”

Dosidola scratched its head in embarrassment.

It didn’t leave after delivering the herb. Instead, it watched Pirite with expectant eyes.

Pirite, no longer crying, felt much better and said with a smile: “I really don’t have any food on me.”

“Do si…”

Dosidola looked disappointed upon hearing that.

“But I do have something you might need.”

Pirite continued.

As he spoke, he pulled a yellowish-brown crystal from his pocket.

It was an Earth Stone, a key item for evolving ground-type pet beasts. He remembered that Dosidola’s evolution condition required one.

To ordinary Beast masters, Earth Stones were quite valuable, but the one Pirite had was mid-grade, neither powerful nor collectible. It had no use or value to him.

He only kept it because one of his own ground-type pet beasts liked to chew on Earth Stones like snacks, so he always had one on hand.

“Do si…”

Dosidola took the Earth Stone with a confused look, unsure of what it was for.

“Just press it to your forehead and circulate your energy.” Pirite explained.

If a beast had sufficient energy in its body and met the conditions for evolution, the Evolution Stone would glow once activated.

Since Dosidola didn’t trigger any reaction, it meant it hadn’t yet reached the required energy level.

There were two possible reasons for this. One, its energy was still far below the threshold, so even with the Evolution Stone, it wouldn’t work.

Or two, its energy had passed a certain boundary, but it needed to circulate its power to fully activate the stone and trigger evolution.

For tamed pet beasts, the ideal time to evolve was when their energy reserves were maxed out. But for wild beasts, evolution should happen whenever possible.

After all, it was survival of the fittest. The wild was brutal, if you weren’t strong enough, you couldn’t even eat.

Having said that, Pirite wiped the remaining snot and tears off his face, then looked up at Nyudikaka, who was on lookout in the sky.

“Let’s go.”

“Nyuu~”

Nyudikaka let out a cry, its eyes glowing blue.

The next second, both it and Pirite vanished from where they stood.

“Do si…”

Dosidola looked at the Earth Stone in its paw, hesitated, then slowly lifted it to its forehead.

Just before circulating its energy, it glanced at the scene before it, an empty clearing, tall grass swaying in the wind.

It felt oddly familiar, like… it had seen this place somewhere before…

Shaking off the strange feeling, Dosidola focused and began to channel the energy in its body.

Under the moonlight, the quiet clearing rustled with moving grass.

Suddenly, a dazzling white light burst into view.

The next day.

The 1st District.

Airport.

After a smooth landing, Qiao Sang disembarked and switched off airplane mode on her phone, just in time to receive a message from Teacher Pirite saying he had successfully boarded.

She quietly let out a sigh of relief.

At that moment, a staff member approached her respectfully: “Miss Qiao Sang?”

Qiao Sang paused, then nodded, “Yes.”

“Your pet vehicle is ready. Please follow me.” The staff member turned and began leading the way.

Qiao Sang followed behind, suddenly remembering

: Oh right, the VIP service…

They arrived at the tarmac, where a bird-type pet beast stood with a carriage attached to its back.

The staff member opened the carriage door.

Nice. Saved her the trouble of exiting through the airport…

Qiao Sang lifted her leg and stepped inside.

The door closed.

The bird beast flapped its wings powerfully and soared into the sky.

“Yap!”

Yabao opened the window, gazing out at the sky.

“Lu Ai.”

Lubao’s head leaned next to Yabao’s, also staring out.

Gangbao split into two copies, practicing the clone skill she had just learned, clearly in a good mood.

“Xun xun…”

Little Treasure looked at Yabao, then at Lubao, and finally at Gangbao.

Everyone seemed to have forgotten something…

He wandered over to his Beast master’s side and gave a fake cough, trying to regain a sense of presence.

“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang put down the phone she had just picked up and asked.

“Xun xun?”

Little Treasure lowered his voice and asked what to do about that flute-playing guy inside his ring.

Qiao Sang was about to respond when she suddenly remembered,

didn’t Adinishi have the ability to see the outside world through the ring?

If that were true, could he hear sounds from the outside too?

Realizing that, she swallowed her original response and said instead: “Since he likes staying inside, let’s not bother him for now. We’ll deal with it when we get home.”

“Xun xun…”

Little Treasure nodded reluctantly.

Fine… He had waited this long. A little longer wouldn’t hurt…

---

Fifty minutes later.

Villa.

“Xun xun!”

As soon as they entered the house, Little Treasure couldn’t help but shout, then flopped dramatically onto the couch, declaring that this trip had been exhausting.

After that, he glanced around, at Yabao, at Lubao, at his Beast master, expecting a response.

“You’ve worked hard.” Qiao Sang said as she walked toward her room.

“Yap!”

Yabao energetically ran off to the outdoor training field.

Gangbao headed the same way.

“Lu Ai.”

Lubao gave Little Treasure a look, then the gem on her forehead lit up with blue light, shining on Little Treasure’s body.

Once the glow faded, Lubao turned and swam off toward the indoor pool.

Little Treasure: ???

He blinked, staring at the now-empty living room in confusion.

Why was this so different from what he imagined?

Wasn’t everyone supposed to take turns talking about how exhausting the journey was, and then he could emotionally and dramatically recount his great contributions?

Then, once the flute guy came out and played his tune, he would ascend to the throne of

Boss!

That was the proper script!

At that moment, Qiao Sang came out carrying a pile of snacks, opened the fridge, and took out everything edible, placing it all on the dining table.

Then she turned to look at Little Treasure: “Ask Adinishi if he’s willing to come out now.”

“Xun xun!”

Finally!

His Beast master hadn’t forgotten about that guy after all!

Revived with energy, Little Treasure eagerly pulled off the ring and stuck his head inside.

After a few seconds, he emerged, expanded the ring, reached in with his paw, and carefully pulled out the very round and chubby Adinishi.
