Beast taming, starting from zero point

Chapter 560: Chapter 512 Who is speaking?!

Fortunately, there were other ways to earn bonus points besides academic courses.

By the time she contracted her fourth Pet Beast, having the Golden Finger meant that she should have no problem cultivating the Pet Beast to a High Level within half a year.

Based on the past bonus points criteria at Sainan High School, evolving a Low Level Pet Beast to an Intermediate Level Pet Beast added 20 points, and evolving an Intermediate Level Pet Beast to a High Level Pet Beast added 100 points.

At the very least, she would have 120 points, plus the existing 94 points, so she should have at least 214 points. That left her only... only 786 points short of 1000... Thinking of this, Qiao Sang felt her heart cool by half.

Alas, she didn’t know how many points the school would give for the Brain Domain breakthrough tomorrow...

...

Sainan High School, the administrative building, ninth-floor conference room.

On either side of the long conference table sat nine high-level administrators; most who could attend were present.

Taking the lead was a man in his forties, whose appearance was unremarkable, yet he exuded a subtle air of nobility.

"How many points do you think would be appropriate to add?" the middle-aged man asked slowly.

The purpose of this meeting was to discuss the points issue concerning Qiao Sang.

No sooner had his voice faded than various opinions were voiced in the silent conference room.

"How about 1000 points? She is a genius with a 39% Brain Domain at the age of 15," said a man with raven hair and chiseled features.

"No way. Qiao Sang isn’t from Chao Su Star. Giving her 1000 points would be like telling all the students in our school that they aren’t as good as an exchange student from Blue Star," a black elder retorted.

"But that is true, isn’t it? Not just our Sainan High School, but no high school on Chao Su Star can find a student who has reached 39% Brain Domain by the age of 15," a blonde haired, blue-eyed woman with light makeup shrugged.

The man with blonde hair beside her ignored the woman and, looking at the first dark-haired man who had spoken, said with dissatisfaction:

"Don’t think you can say whatever nonsense just because the other person is also from Dragon Country like you. You do realize saying 1000 points is outrageous?"

The dark-haired man looked at him with a smile:

"What, do you think 1000 points are too few? Then let’s make it 2000."

"You!" The blonde man stood up, slamming the table.

"Sit down. I am not here to watch a quarrel," said a young man with red hair seated at the head of the table, speaking indifferently.

The blonde man huffed and sat down angrily.

The conference room fell silent for a moment.

A few seconds later, a brown-haired woman with a stern and cold expression spoke up:

"I think 300 points would be enough. Our school values all-around abilities. If earning points solely for the Brain Domain breakthrough outweighs the efforts of other students over the past three years, what will they think?"

The black-haired woman beside her said:

"A student with a 20% Brain Domain breakthrough gets 200 points. Now we’re talking about a 30% breakthrough. We all understand the difficulty in that. Isn’t 300 points a bit too miserly?"

The blonde man immediately said, "But that doesn’t mean 1000 points! If we give out 1000 points, that’s practically handing over two rare resources!"

"I agree, she is only an exchange student at our school, not even a native of Chao Su Star."

"It doesn’t matter whether she is from Chao Su Star or not; even if she were one of us, 1000 points would still be too much."

"1000 points is too much, and 300 points is too little. I think we could meet somewhere in the middle," the black-haired woman said slowly: "How about 500 points? If I remember correctly, there is an S-rank Water-type Evolution Stone in the exchange library, worth exactly 500 points. One, it is enough to express our recognition, two, such resources can be found again with some more time invested by our school, and three, 500 points won’t displace the top ranks on the points leaderboard."

A few of the administrators nodded slightly in agreement to her suggestion.

At this moment, the red-haired young man said:

"I have no objections regarding the points, but I want the Blue Star exchange student to undergo another Brain Domain test in front of me."

"Naturally, we’d all like to meet a student who has achieved 39% Brain Domain development at 15, even if she’s not from Chao Su Star," the black elder said with a smile: "I have already instructed our school physician to reach out to her. She will be asked to come by tomorrow."

The leading middle-aged man asked:

"Does anyone object?"

The conference room remained silent for a long while.

The middle-aged man’s voice was steady and unrushed:

"Since there are no objections, the matter is settled."

...

Seven o’clock in the morning.

Lubao emitted a Healing Light, and Qiao Sang’s dark circles from staying up all night vanished instantly.

After briskly washing up and having breakfast, she took Yaobao and the others to the open-air training facility as mentioned by the school physician.

The training area was vast, comparable to four soccer fields, and without any adjacent academic buildings nearby, so even if they made a big commotion, it wouldn’t disturb the students’ classes.

"You guys train well here; I’ll summon you back after school," Qiao Sang said to Yaobao and Lubao.

"Bingke."

Lubao nodded its head.

"Ya Ya?"

Yaobao looked around, fairly satisfied with the space, and then it seemed to think of something. It called out. Where was Xiao Xunbao?

"Xun Xun..."

Xiao Xunbao’s eyes were filled with grievance. It had to go to school...

"Ya Ya?"

Yaobao had known since yesterday that Xiao Xunbao needed to go to school. It was asking if it needed to go every single day from now on.

"Xun?!"

Xiao Xunbao instantly showed a terrified expression.

From now on? Every day?!

It had never thought about this!

Seeing the problematic question, Qiao Sang replied earnestly, "Of course not. There are weekends and holidays, and besides, once I graduate and leave here, Xiao Xunbao naturally won’t have to go to school anymore."

"Xun..."

Xiao Xunbao patted its chest, relieved. That had scared it to death.

After saying goodbye to Yaobao and Lubao, Qiao Sang left with Xiao Xunbao.

"Ya..."

On the training ground, Yaobao kept watching Qiao Sang’s retreating figure.

When it could no longer see its Beast Tamer, Yaobao showed a desolate expression, and its tail drooped.

Beside it, Lubao glanced at Yaobao, and then began to sing:

"Bing~ Bing Bing~ Bing Bing Bing~ Bing~ Bing Bing~"

Invisible sound waves rippled out.

Yaobao’s tail slowly returned to its usual state, not touching the ground.

"Bingke?"

When the singing ended, Lubao called out, indicating training?

"Ya."

Yaobao’s expression was peaceful.

Train.

...

Meanwhile, Qiao Sang took Xiao Xunbao past several buildings, coming to a small grove as directed by the homeroom teacher.

Though it was called a grove, it was actually a park.

The place was lush and green, and many small Pet Beasts were visible everywhere.

From the Identity Bracelets on their paws, it was clear that these were not wild Pet Beasts.

Some of them were dressed grandly, acting elegantly.

Xiao Xunbao looked around curiously.

Suddenly, its gaze fixed on a white lace glove on the claw of an egg-type Pet Beast.

"Xun Xun!"

After staring for two seconds, Xiao Xunbao turned its head towards its own Beast Tamer and stretched out its two paws.

Gloves! It had forgotten to buy its diamond gloves!

That’s right... Qiao Sang looked embarrassed and was about to say something when,

suddenly, the Pet Beasts around started to run about in a panicked way.

Qiao Sang felt something and turned his head.

He saw a Pet Beast about 2 meters tall, bipedal, with a primarily purple body and a white stripe running through its face, walking over.

"You must be a new student. Let me see... Ghost Ring Ghost, there are only 5 minutes left before class starts. You better hurry over."

Qiao Sang: "!!!"

Who?!

Who’s talking?!
