Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Most blue-colored creatures are usually water-type beasts.

She was right after all! Qiao Sang couldn’t help but admire her own cleverness.

Little Treasure floated over and curiously poked the light blue beast’s ear, which seemed to flow like water.

Although the ear appeared to be flowing like water, the little ghost’s paw didn’t pass through it as expected. Instead, it was stopped by the surface.

Where the ear was touched, it rippled like water, a magical sight.

“Xun!”

Excited, Little Treasure poked it a few more times. Then, he started poking the tail, which also looked like water swirling in motion, just like the ears.

Qiao Sang walked closer and stared at the light blue beast, frozen in surprise.

From a distance, the small size of the beast and its curled up form after fainting had only made its color noticeable, not its appearance.

The small creature lay on its side, with four legs resembling a fox, covered in light blue scales. Its large, pointed ears were a deeper blue inside than outside.

At the center of its forehead was a sapphire-like, water droplet-shaped gem. Its back connected to a tail, which split at the end like a mermaid’s tail.

The most stunning part was its ears and tail, they actually looked like they were made of flowing water.

Qiao Sang squatted down and couldn’t resist touching its ear. It was cool and soft.

A refreshing coolness spread from her fingertips, it was the perfect sensation for a hot summer day.

The texture was so pleasant that Qiao Sang couldn’t help but stroke it again.

At that moment, Yabao approached. Unlike Qiao Sang and Little Treasur, he wasn’t fooled by the cute appearance of the light blue beast.

He stared angrily at the unconscious beast.

So, this was the culprit that had soaked him from head to toe earlier.

The more Yabao thought about it, the angrier he got. He stomped over and shook the little beast hard with his paw.

“Yap!”

“Yap yap!”

Why are you still unconscious? Wake up and fight me right now!

“Yabao, let’s wait until it wakes up naturally. We can ask why it did that.” Qiao Sang said, feeling sorry for the small beast being shaken.

People are always more lenient toward beautiful things. In today’s society, beauty standards don’t just apply to humans but to beasts as well.

This is clearly shown in the Coordination Contests.

As long as a beast is good-looking, it doesn’t even need to perform to make it into the second round.

But if a beast is unattractive, no matter how hard it tries, it’ll still face harsh criticism.

“Yap.”

Reluctantly, Yabao withdrew his paw.

Though he desperately wanted to fight the culprit right now, he decided to wait since his Beastmaster had said so.

Qiao Sang smiled and patted Yabao’s head in appreciation.

She then picked up the little blue beast and carried it into the living room.

After placing it on the sofa, she took a picture with her phone and searched for information online.

Soon, information about the light blue beast appeared.

[Water Luriana, a near-extinct water-type beast from the Guwu region. Known for its gentle nature and dislike for fighting, it symbolizes peace and beauty.]

[Its cellular structure is similar to water molecules, granting it the ability to merge its body with water by altering its cells.]

[It must constantly replenish its water supply, which it absorbs through its ears or tail from moisture in the air.]

[If its ears or tail double in size, it's a sign that it will rain within a few hours.]

[It is said that even if it loses limbs, as long as the gem on its forehead glows, it can heal and restore itself.]

Qiao Sang’s mind went blank as she read the information.

An endangered water-type beast from the distant Guwu region?!

The Guwu region was incredibly far from the Yuhua region… It’s an exaggeration to say it's over ten thousand miles away.

But how did a beast from there end up here in Yuhua?

And it can regenerate lost limbs?!

That would require at least a high-tier healing skill!

Qiao Sang forced herself to stay calm and took a deep breath, searching for the reason behind Water Luriana’s near extinction.

Beasts that are near extinction are usually affected by ancient catastrophes, hunting, or reproductive issues.

Sometimes, they were over hunted by humans.

Thinking back to the gem on Water Luriana’s head mentioned earlier, Qiao Sang strongly suspected it had been over hunted by humans.

Soon, her search confirmed her suspicion.

[Due to difficulties in reproduction and excessive hunting.]

Qiao Sang was silent for a long time. As expected…

The value of such rare beasts is unimaginable. Though not as powerful as a divine beast, its rarity is on par with one.

Dragon-type and fairy-type beasts, although rare, can still be bought if you have enough money.

But for a near-extinct beast, it’s not just a matter of money.

Looking down at the unconscious Water Luriana, Qiao Sang couldn’t help it… She was tempted…

Who wouldn’t be tempted by a rare beast with powerful healing abilities, one as precious as a divine beast? If someone weren’t tempted, they’d have to be a saint!

As a Beastmaster, resisting the allure of such a beast is impossible.

Qiao Sang admitted she was only human, after all.

“Little Treasure!” Qiao Sang turned her burning gaze toward the ghost.

“When it wakes up, it’s all on you. Use your charm, offer it the best snacks and fun! I’ll repay you tenfold!”

“Xun!”

The little ghost became excited and quickly removed his ring, pulling out all sorts of things from it.

Milk, candy, snacks, wind eagle feathers, dandelions, pink heart-shaped sunglasses…

Yabao was puzzled by his Beastmaster’s words. Were these things really for the culprit?

But when he saw the familiar sunglasses on the coffee table, he forgot his previous thoughts.

“Yap!”

“Yap yap!”

Excited, Yabao grabbed the pink heart shaped sunglasses.

He had been searching for those for so long, only to find them in his little brother’s ring!

Yabao eagerly tried to put them on, but… they wouldn’t fit. The frames were pressing into his face…

Since evolving from a Fire Fang Dog into a Flame Hound, Yabao had grown several times larger. His head was also much bigger, so the sunglasses no longer fit.

“Yap…”

Yabao quickly realized the issue lay in his evolution.

He lowered his head in disappointment, unable to accept this reality.

“No big deal, I’ll buy you a few new pairs. You can pick whichever you like.” Qiao Sang said generously.

“Yap!”

Yabao’s tail began to wag, his spirits lifted once more.

Seeing that Ya Bao was in a good mood, Qiao Sang took the opportunity to ask, “Do you know who this little beast is?”

“Yap!”

Yabao nodded.

Of course, he knew. This was the evil creature that soaked him earlier!

“No, this is a poor creature, far from home, all alone, with no family or friends, lost and helpless.” Qiao Sang said, feigning a heavy tone.
