Beast taming, starting from zero point
Chapter 537 - 493: Chao Su Star

Chapter 537: Chapter 493: Chao Su Star

As the plane’s door opened, wrapped in a down jacket, Qiao Sang stepped out with dark circles under her eyes, her steps unsteady.

She breathed in the chilly, fresh air and finally felt her mind clearing up a bit.

Pulling an all-nighter really isn’t for humans... Qiao Sang lamented in her heart.

Liu Yao followed her out, and upon seeing Qiao Sang’s appearance, remembering her staying up all night reading, his heart softened, and he said gently:

"Go back and have a good sleep, skip school today, I’ll ask for leave on your behalf."

Ask for leave? With just a few months until the college entrance exams, how could she take a day off? Qiao Sang’s weak voice carried a serious tone, "No need for leave, I’m not the kind of person who needs a day off just because I haven’t slept for one night."

Liu Yao: "???"

Liu Yao was stunned, thinking to himself, so the person who used to call him every now and then asking for a leave was a ghost?

In Liu Yao’s "I’ve seen a ghost" gaze, Qiao Sang walked down the escalator to a vacant area away from the passengers, formed a seal with her hands, and summoned Lubao.

Before Qiao Sang could say anything, Lubao, seeing the state of her Beast Tamer, instantly got the message. Without a word, it cast Healing Light straight at her.

This scene caught the eye of the other passengers who had just disembarked.

As the blue light dissipated, Qiao Sang looked refreshed, with no trace of dark circles under her eyes.

She had just stayed up all night, and yet she used a Super Tier Skill like Healing Light... Liu Yao took a deep breath to calm his emotions.

He shifted his gaze, afraid that looking any longer would be too much for his heart to handle.

...

Shengshui Middle School.

The entrance was now crowded with reporters and paparazzi.

Several reporters were blocking the security office door.

"Is Qiao Sang coming back today? The cheerleading squad and Teacher Sun, who led the team, came back yesterday afternoon, why didn’t Qiao Sang return with them?"

"Is Qiao Sang’s head teacher at school? May I interview him?"

"The chairman of the Teng Cheng Group expressed willingness to sponsor your school with five million, have you received the news?"

"Everyone knows that even on holidays the school team members need to train, and the winter vacation is coming up, does Qiao Sang still need to come to school for training?"

"I heard that Qiao Sang has earned a spot in the Intergalactic Exchange Student program, which planet and which school will she be exchanging with?"

Look at what you all are asking; do you think I, a security guard, would know any of this... The security guard stayed in the booth, keeping his mouth shut.

The crowd of onlookers kept growing, with busy office workers passing by and local elders on their way to the market gathering around.

Some passersby who didn’t know the situation asked, "What’s going on here with so many reporters?"

An enthusiastic elder answered, "I heard Shengshui Middle School has a national champion."

"Champion?" The passerby was taken aback: "What kind of champion, to attract so many reporters?"

"It seems like the champion of the National School Beast Taming Competition," said the elder.

"Beast Taming, no wonder," the passerby showed an expression of realization.

It made sense; apart from the champions of Beast Taming competitions, what other kinds of champions would attract such media attention.

From inside a taxi a block away, Qiao Sang looked through the window at the entrance of Shengshui Middle School, her heart trembling.

With such a scene, once she went over, she’d probably be devoured alive...

"Aren’t you guys getting out?" asked the driver who had already been paid.

"Wait a second, right away," Liu Yao responded, then formed a seal with his hands.

Instantly understanding the vice-principal’s intentions, Qiao Sang realized he was about to summon a higher-level teacher.

How could they let a teacher deal with this... Qiao Sang immediately intervened, "No need, I’ll do it."

After speaking, she turned her head and called into the air, "Xiao Xunbao."

"Xun~"

Liu Yao froze for a moment, then everything went dark before his eyes.

Liu Yao: "!!!"

Driver: "!!!"

Xiao Xunbao was no longer the Xiao Xunbao of the past. After a period of diligent training, it had mastered the ability to pinpoint coordinates accurately.

When Qiao Sang’s world reassembled before her eyes, she found herself in front of the teaching building nearest to the school gate.

And surrounding her were students in uniforms, each holding something that looked like a firecracker, all staring in the direction of the school gate and chatting intermittently.

"Qiao Sang doesn’t board at school, and she just got off the plane. Will she really come?"

"Of course, she’ll come. Otherwise, would the school let us skip morning self-study to prepare this surprise?"

"Makes sense, but I see only reporters outside the gate. Could she be blocked out there?"

"She probably won’t be. Doesn’t her Ghost Ring Specter have Spatial Movement? Besides, the vice principal is also there."

"Xun Xun~"

Xiao Xunbao nodded, signaling you’re thinking correctly.

Suddenly, everything around went quiet for a moment.

Someone cried out first, "Ah! Qiao the Great! And the Ghost Ring Specter!"

The next second, everyone turned their heads.

Following that, the students erupted, each one as excited as if they had seen their super idol, their excitement uncontrollable.

Qiao Sang only felt herself suddenly surrounded by a sea of people and then was lightly tossed into the air.

"Bang Bang Bang!"

The firecrackers in the students’ hands went off, showering streams of ribbons and confetti through the air.

"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

The fervent atmosphere permeated the skies above Shengshui Middle School.

Qiao Sang watched the sky that seemed alternately distant and close and then turned to look at the young and vibrant faces, her heart rate accelerating, a mysterious heat surging in her chest.

This was the youth she had never experienced in her previous life.

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Liu Yao was in disarray, feeling as if his ample belly had been squeezed flat: "Stop pushing! Everyone, stop pushing!"

"Where’s the teacher! The principal! Someone manage this, please!"

...

An hour later.

Principal’s office.

"The reporters from Yuhua Daily, Yuhua TV Station, and Yuhua Beast Taming News Agency want to interview you. Do you want to see them?" Wang Weidou asked.

In truth, many media outlets wanted to interview Qiao Sang, but these three were the most authoritative television media in the Yuhua Region.

"No," Qiao Sang shook her head and said.

If it had been before, she might have thought about getting more interviews to help publicize her family’s Pet Beast Breeding Shop.

But now, having seen more of the world, she understood clearly the costs associated with breeding Pet Beasts and realized the future could not rely solely on earnings from a Pet Beast Breeding Shop.

Currently, she was focused on preparing for the college entrance exam to get into Zhongkong University, a top-tier institution. It was more sensible to develop her prospects there.

"Alright, then I’ll turn them away for you," Wang Weidou said without hesitation.

What were authoritative media to him? Qiao Sang was now the apple of his eye, and he certainly wouldn’t let her do anything she was unwilling to do!

By the way, the main reason I called you here was for you to fill out the form for the exchange student," Wang Weidou placed a form in front of Qiao Sang, smiling, "The slots for the Intergalactic Exchange Student program have been announced, and your name is on the list."

He said, offering her a pen.

Qiao Sang took the pen, twisting off the cap as she scrutinized the form.

Suddenly, she froze: "Chao Su Star?"
