Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 609: Can''t Bear to Look

Chapter 609: Can''t Bear to LookWang Rui was quite satisfied with Qiao Sang’s cooperation and immediately said:

"Then summon the new form of your Steel Falcon first."

As a senior re

Two glowing purple feathers were swiftly plucked out, resembling blades.

In the next instant, Steel Bao gripped the Wing Blades and transformed into a streak of purple light, dashing toward its opponent.

Whoosh!

Her blurred figure flashed, and a purple blade light sliced across the Water Foam Crab.

Bernice had only just managed to shout, "Dodge!" in a panic.

"Water Foam!"

The Water Foam Crab let out a pained cry and collapsed with its eyes shut.

Qiao Sang stared at the fallen opponent, dazed for a few seconds.

Was the other side even taking this seriously?

Was it already over?

The field fell into silence.

From his seat, the principal’s eyes lit up.

"I didn’t expect this newly evolved Intermediate pet beast to have already mastered a high-level skill like Wing Blade!"

It was impossible for a beginner pet beast to learn high-level skills, so he hadn’t even considered the possibility.

Mu Deli lowered her voice and said skeptically, "Are the research institute’s people too weak? Their command speed can’t even keep up with the battlefield."

The principal thought for a moment and responded, "Their researchers spend all day in the lab, so their combat skills are generally lacking. They probably assumed that since Qiao Sang’s Steel Falcon had just evolved, it wouldn’t know high-level skills like Wing Blade."

"Plus, Qiao Sang was the senior-year champion of Blue Star’s Dragon Nation before becoming an exchange student here. Even if she only bonded with the Steel Falcon after arriving on Chaosu Star, it was never going to be weak."

"If the Steel Falcon is indeed Bond-Evolved, its battle coordination is bound to be much stronger than the research institute’s people."

"I think they focused too much on whether she would feel pain and forgot about Qiao Sang’s own strength."

"That makes sense." Mu Deli said in realization.

Then, in a more understanding tone, she added, "But you can’t really blame them. Normally, no one would expect a newly evolved Intermediate pet beast to have mastered a high-level skill, let alone wield it so proficiently."

The principal remained silent, seemingly agreeing.

Generally, newly evolved pet beasts gained one or two new skills. If they were low-level, it was easy to grasp them quickly. But for mid- and high-level skills, it usually took several days of training to use them proficiently.

Qiao Sang’s case was rare, so it was understandable that the researchers hadn’t accounted for it.

Wang Rui, realizing his oversight, coughed and turned to Qiao Sang,

"Even though this is a standard battle, our real goal is to determine whether Steel Guardian Falcon underwent Bond Evolution. So you… Can hold back a little."

The research institute did have Advanced, General, and even King-tier pet beasts, but they had chosen Intermediate-level ones to avoid harming the Beast master if Bond Evolution was real.

They just hadn’t expected the first match to end in an instant…

You should have said that earlier! Qiao Sang grumbled internally but outwardly responded seriously, "I understand."

"Gang Guardian-"

Gangbao quietly reinserted the two glowing purple feathers back into her wings.

"Scott, you go." Wang Rui called.

Bernice recalled her Water Foam Crab and retreated awkwardly.

A middle-aged man with brown hair and blue eyes stepped forward.

As he summoned his beast, Qiao Sang gave a subtle warning, "Gangbao, remember our real goal in this battle."

Gangbao: …Understood.

She couldn't bear to look anymore.
