Chapter 594 Tingbao’s Progress (Part 2)

In the hotel room,

crackling yellow arcs of electricity appeared on Tingbao’s body, striking the Object-Knowing Monster.

“Shishi…”

the Object-Knowing Monster feigned enjoyment.

Michaela, sitting at the dining table, watched this scene and asked,

“Aren’t you sure you don’t need to take the Object-Knowing Monster to see a doctor?”

“No need,” Qiao Sang said, eating a fried egg. “The Object-Knowing Monster knows its own body condition. It said it’s fine, so it should be fine.”

“Then why let it rest for a few more days?” Michaela asked.

*Tian Tian…

this human…* The Object-Knowing Monster looked up at Michaela.

“Although it wasn’t seriously injured, it must have been frightened after last night,” Qiao Sang said. “Anyway, we’ll be staying in Lei Dian Kingdom for a while, so a few more days won’t make a difference.” The

Object-Knowing Monster looked away, a warm feeling welling up inside it.

But just as it looked away, it saw new lightning reappear on Tingbao’s body and quickly called out,

“Shishi.

I’m full. “

“Tingting?”

Tingbao withdrew its lightning and called out, indicating it was really full. *I just recharged you.*

“Shishi.”

The knowledgeable creature nodded and called out, indicating that it was true; your lightning power had increased considerably, and you must have become stronger.

Aside from the part about being “full,” it wasn’t lying; it could sense that the other person’s lightning power had indeed increased.

Tingbao paused for a moment, then felt much better and called out,

“Tingting.”

It’s good that you’re full.

After saying that, it turned and wriggled its way to the dining table, starting to eat energy pills.

It wasn’t a stormy day, so there was no need to go out and absorb lightning.

Michaela glanced at Qingbao, who was eating energy pills, and said,

“Qingbao’s anger level seems to be almost full again.”

Qingbao paused in its action of eating the energy pills.

Don’t bring up Qingbao. Did you forget that you were the one who helped Qingbao build up the last bit of anger at the dinner table last night? What if the same thing happens again…? Qiao Sang thought to herself, “It seems so.”

Then, she quickly changed the subject: “Little Xunbao can now absorb over a dozen emotional energies simultaneously.”

Little Xunbao’s proficiency with mental links is now quite high, allowing it to absorb emotional energy from greater distances. However, whether it can absorb more depends mainly on whether there are people and pets around who genuinely like it.

Considering that only tens of thousands of toys have been given away, being able to absorb over a dozen emotional energies simultaneously is already quite impressive.

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao exclaimed proudly.

Michaela glanced at Little Treasure Hunter, then asked,

“Have you tested it? How much energy value can a dozen emotional energies increase?”

Qiao Sang hadn’t tested it, but she’d seen data in the Beast Taming Manual. Based on that data, she could roughly estimate the daily energy increase… Qiao Sang shook her head, saying, “I haven’t tested it.”

“You can test it every day from now on. That way, you’ll have a clear understanding of Little Treasure Hunter’s emotional energy absorption,” Michaela said.

“I understand,” Qiao Sang nodded.

“What about Thunder Treasure?” Michaela asked again, “How’s its lightning absorption going lately?”

“It’s doing great,” Qiao Sang smiled, “Its daily energy value is increasing significantly; it feels like it’ll reach the mid-level General level very soon.”

Michaela opened her mouth, about to reply.

But before she could speak, Thunder Treasure called out,

“Tingting.” “

I feel like I’m already at the mid-level.

” “What?” Qiao Sang abruptly stopped eating and turned to look at it.

Michaela realized something but didn’t interrupt.

“Tingting,”

Thunder Treasure called, indicating that it felt it was now at the mid-level.

“Really?” Qiao Sang was pleasantly surprised.

This was much faster than she had expected.

“Tingting.” Tingbao nodded.

It felt the same way.

“What did Tingbao say?” Michaela finally couldn’t help but ask during a break.

“Tingbao said it felt its energy had reached the mid-stage of the General level,” Qiao Sang said happily.

Michaela calmly asked, “You haven’t tested it yet, have you?”

Qiao Sang was taken aback for a moment, then said, “Yes, not yet.”

She had been looking through the Beast Taming Manual for Ya Bao and the others every night, and naturally, she had also looked at Tingbao’s manual.

However, Tingbao had been absorbing lightning recently, and its sleep at night was a digestion period, so the data in the Beast Taming Manual hadn’t stabilized but was constantly changing. Therefore, she hadn’t looked at the data after the level very carefully, mainly focusing on the skill proficiency below.

Michaela calmly said, “Tingbao is only a General-level pet. General-level pets aren’t very high-level, and their perception of changes in themselves isn’t always accurate. You need to have the energy detector check it.”

“Tingting…”

Upon hearing this, Tingbao immediately looked coldly at Michaela, crackling yellow arcs of electricity appearing on its body.

Although the power of the arcs was clearly restrained, its expression and eyes still revealed that if this lightning were unleashed, it would definitely not be a minor outburst.

Seeing this, Michaela immediately realized that her words had been too blunt. After a 0.1-second silence, she added,

“Of course, I still trust Tingbao’s intuition, but machine testing will be more accurate. If it really reaches the mid-stage, its energy pills can be replaced by Seri, which will allow it to enter the next stage faster.”

Tingbao dissipated the arcs of electricity on its body and ate its energy meal with a cold face.

You didn’t say that just now… But Teacher Michaela’s mouth is truly divine. A casual remark can not only make Tingbao angry, but also make Qingbao instantly accumulate all the remaining anger points… Qiao Sang complained while saying,

“I’ll let Tingbao check after we finish eating.”

Breakfast quickly ended amidst casual conversation. Throughout, Qiao Sang kept her attention on Xiao Xunbao and Teacher Michaela, preventing them from steering the conversation towards Qingbao, whose anger was threatening to build up at any moment.

Fortunately, nothing happened.

“Qingqing,”

Qingbao swallowed the last energy pill and called out to Xiao Xunbao, indicating that they should continue.

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao had no objections and was immediately ready to provoke Qingbao.

To be honest, it was starting to enjoy this feeling.

Normally, if it did anything to Qingbao, it would have been blown away long ago, but now, Qingbao had to endure it, looking like it wanted to hit it but couldn’t—it was quite satisfying.

Just as Xiao Xunbao turned around, preparing to wag its butt at Qingbao, Qiao Sang overheard the conversation and quickly stopped it:

“Don’t continue!”

“Xunxun?”

“Qingqing?”

Xiao Xunbao and Qingbao both looked at her with puzzled expressions.

“Didn’t I tell you before, your anger level seems to have accumulated almost enough?” Qiao Sang said. “Once Tingbao’s energy test is complete, let’s go somewhere where there are no other people or pets, and accumulate the remaining anger level.”

“Xunxun~”

“Qingqing.”

Little Xunbao and Qingbao nodded.

Qiao Sang stopped talking and stared at Little Xunbao.

Little Xunbao blinked.

What happened to our tacit understanding… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and said, “Energy Detector.”

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao finally realized why its beast master was staring at it, quickly took off the ring, enlarged it, and took out the energy detector, placing it on the ground.

Tingbao twisted its body and flew over, stopping next to the energy detector.

Little Xunbao thoughtfully attached the connecting cable to Tingbao.

The data on the display screen jumped rapidly.

Qiao Sang and Michaela looked over at the same time.

After a while, the first few numbers on the display screen stopped jumping, but the numbers after that continued to increase by tens, showing no sign of stopping.

“It has indeed reached the mid-stage of the General level,” Michaela smiled. “I’ll have Seri prepare a new batch of energy pills for Tingbao.”

For a breeder of Seri’s caliber, a minor breakthrough in a General-level pet doesn’t require special inspection.

“Okay,” Josang said, then, as if remembering something, added, “Could you also ask Teacher Seri to keep an eye out for Dragon Sparkle?”

Although they already have one A-grade Dragon Sparkle, to achieve the best evolution effect, they still need to find another A-grade Dragon Sparkle to use together.

“I’ll mention it to him,” Michaela said.

She wasn’t in a hurry. In her opinion, Tingbao still had some time before evolving. Even if they couldn’t find another A-grade Dragon Sparkle when it was time to evolve, they could postpone the evolution.

After all, Josang’s growth rate had completely exceeded her expectations. Even if Tingbao evolved a little slower, it would still be much faster than other dragon-type pets of the same stage.

As she spoke, Michaela glanced at the cloud beneath Qingbao and said,

“Take Qingbao out to train him to control his emotional outbursts.”

Qiao Sang took out her phone, checked the time, and then put it down, saying,

“If I’m not back before lunch, you can eat first.”

She then looked at Xiao Xunbao.

This time, Xiao Xunbao understood its Beastmaster’s meaning. Its eyes glowed blue, and it disappeared with Ya Bao and the others.

…

On a desolate, yellow earthen site.

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao made a face at Qingbao.

Qingbao looked on expressionlessly.

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao turned and wagged its bottom at Qingbao.

Qingbao looked on expressionlessly.

Suddenly, with a “poof,” Xiao Xunbao released a burst of grain-like energy.

Qingbao could no longer control its facial expression; its face changed drastically, and it quickly floated dozens of meters backward.

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao teleported after it, continuing to wag its bottom at Qingbao.

“Qingqing!!!”

Qingbao finally couldn’t bear it any longer. The clouds beneath her suddenly darkened even more, and then a fierce wind suddenly arose, swirling yellow dust and uprooting the surrounding dirt. The sand and stones were twisted into huge, yellowish-brown storms, and everything seemed to be enveloped in a chaotic, dim yellow. Qiao Sang and Ya Bao were instantly swallowed up.

Ten minutes later.

A gust of wind blew by, clearing away the sand that had buried Qiao Sang and Ya Bao.

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao floated by with a guilty look on her face.

“Lu Bao…” Qiao Sang lay in the yellow sand, calling out weakly.

“Ya Ya…” Ya Bao lay beside her beast tamer, calling out as well.

Xia Bao lay beside her with her eyes closed, already unconscious.

“Bing Luo.”

Lu Bao, who had swiftly activated her ice armor as the sandstorm approached, dispelled the ice armor. The gem on her forehead emitted an icy blue light, shining on her beast tamer and Ya Bao.

As the icy blue light faded, Qiao Sang and Ya Bao were fully revived and quickly stood up.

Xia Bao stood up from the yellow sand, spitting out the sand in her mouth.

Lu Bao glanced at her beast tamer and Ya Bao, who were covered in yellow sand, paused for a second, then suddenly opened her mouth and sprayed out a thick stream of blue water.

Qiao Sang and Ya Bao were instantly soaked.

Qiao Sang: “…”

Ya Bao: “!!!”

“Xia Xia!”

Xia Bao’s eyes lit up, and she instantly became energetic.

“Ya Ya!”

After the water spray was finished, Ya Bao shook her head, shook off the water, and called out to Lu Bao in dissatisfaction, indicating what she was doing!

“Bing Luo.”

Lu Bao called out calmly, indicating that she thought they were too dirty.

Ya Bao paused for a moment, then gave a “seems true” look. Sensing its wet body, it became annoyed and cried out,

“Ya Ya!” “

You should at least have said something first!

” “Alright,” Qiao Sang, soaked to the bone, soothed, “Lu Bao was just trying to help us clean up.” “

Xia Xia,”

Xia Bao nodded in agreement.

“Ya Ya…”

Seeing its beast master’s approval, Ya Bao’s anger subsided considerably, giving a “okay” look before a burst of flames erupted from its body.

Instantly, all the water on its fur evaporated and disappeared.

“Qing Qing…”

Qing Bao cried out in shame beside it, indicating it was all its fault.

Qiao Sang was about to speak when

“Xun Xun~”

suddenly, little Xun Bao appeared, patted its chest, and cried out in relief, indicating it knew Lao Wu would erupt at any moment, and thankfully it had run fast.

Qingbao glanced at it, saying nothing, but the clouds beneath it, which had returned to their snow-white state, were once again tinged with a barely perceptible turbidity. “

Why didn’t you take me with you when you ran away…” Qiao Sang couldn’t help but give Xiao Xunbao a resentful look, but quickly composed herself, saying,

“Let’s go back first.”

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao nodded.

Just as its eyes were about to glow blue, Qingbao looked at the sky and called out,

“Qingqing.”

It felt it was still early and wanted to stay and train a little longer.

After a pause, it added,

“Qingqing.”

But Xiao Xunbao had to stay with me, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to accumulate anger points.

“Xunxun~”

Xiao Xunbao was startled at first, then called out, indicating that it would send its own beast tamer and Brother Ya Bao back first before coming to keep you company.

“Qingqing.”

Qingbao glanced at it, nodded, and the clouds beneath it, which had been somewhat turbid, gradually returned to their snow-white state.

“I’m not leaving either,” Qiao Sang smiled. “Since you’re training, how could I not stay and keep you company?”

“Qingqing…”

Qingbao looked at its beast tamer, both touched and worried, calling out, “What if the wind gets out of control and hurts you again?”

“Isn’t there Lu Bao?” Qiao Sang said casually.

“Bingluo,” Lu Bao nodded.

…

Meanwhile.

Hotel room.

The Object-Knowing Monster stood by the window, watching the people and pets coming and going below, its thoughts drifting.

It wondered what Qiao Sang was doing…

There wasn’t even thunder today, why didn’t she take it with her to training…
