Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

To be fair, even when Yabao first learned Meteor Rain, she wasn’t this shocked.

At least Yabao learned Meteor Rain through proper training, but farting and teleportation…

Qiao Sang was bewildered. Could farting really lead to teleportation?

As much as she didn’t want to believe it, the facts were right in front of her.

Her knowledge was definitely too limited. After reaching this conclusion, Qiao Sang left Yabao and Little Treasure, who were playing tag with teleportation, and went back to her room.

She opened her computer, ready to discuss this matter seriously with netizens.

This time, she didn’t start a thread but directly searched the keyword teleportation and clicked into a trending post.

#I’ve spent nearly 800,000 yuan on my Crowned Meow, but it still hasn’t learned teleportation. The training center says my Crowned Meow has poor aptitude, so it’s learning slowly. Does anyone have other suggestions?#

The post was made by someone with the ID Clear Skies When School Collapses.

[Fatty: That's normal. Keep spending another 200,000, and it should be fine. My Bubbles Bell cost almost a million before it learned.]

[Righteousness: As a successful beast trainer who taught teleportation, I must say choosing the right training center is crucial. I highly recommend Yuqi Beast Training Center. Mention my name for a 20% discount. Message me if you're interested.]

[One Cut: Mine learned it after just 300,000.]

[Unique Beauty: For a beast to learn teleportation, it first needs to learn how to mark coordinates in its mind.]

[Working Hard: I think you should focus on enhancing the beast's energy. If a psychic-type beast has enough energy, it will have enough power to distort space, pulling two points in the three-dimensional space closer. If the energy is strong enough to make the points overlap, the beast can then teleport between them.]

[Fatty: What you’re describing sounds like spatial movement. How’s that related to teleportation?]

[Unique Beauty: If you can master spatial movement, won't teleportation come naturally?]

[Clear Skies When School Collapses: Can we focus on practical solutions rather than theory?]

Seeing the poster’s latest question, Qiao Sang started typing.

[GeniusGeniusGeniusAgain: You can try farting.]

She paused, realizing something was off, deleted it, and retyped.

[GeniusGeniusGeniusAgain: You could have your Crowned Meow try farting.]

After sending it, Qiao Sang felt it was too crude and deleted it again.

[GeniusGeniusGeniusAgain: You could try having your Crowned Meow practice intestinal movements.]

Someone quickly noticed her comment.

[Fatty: Don’t think I didn’t see what you deleted. OP, someone on the 233rd floor suggested farting.]

[Righteousness: This is a serious discussion thread. Can you refrain from making malicious suggestions?]

[Working Hard: The person on the 233rd floor must not be a beast trainer; otherwise, they wouldn’t say something so ridiculous.]

It seemed like everyone’s knowledge was lacking too… Qiao Sang suddenly felt like the only one awake among a crowd of fools.

But the internet was a place for sharing and exchanging information, and participating in forum discussions was a way to broaden her knowledge.

Qiao Sang didn’t mind sharing her insights on how her own beast learned teleportation.

The real reason, though, was that if she didn’t talk about it, it would feel uncomfortable...

Like how some people just can’t keep gossip to themselves, no matter how hard they try.

Qiao Sang always considered herself someone who could keep things under wraps.

But this time, for some reason, she felt an urge to let others know.

Qiao Sang started typing.

[GeniusGeniusGeniusAgain: My beast learned teleportation through intestinal movement training. It’s free, so the OP might as well give it a try.]

Gubei Mansion.

One of the top three most expensive estates in Hanggang City.

The facilities and services, both hardware and software, were impeccable.

By a private pool, a young man in just his swimming trunks lay on a recliner, staring at his laptop in deep thought.

He glanced at the latest comments on the forum, then looked at his Crowned Meow, which was elegantly lying on the next recliner, wearing sunglasses and sipping a cold drink.

After repeating this several times, the Crowned Meow finally took off its sunglasses and looked back at him with an elegant expression.

“Crown?”

The young man pondered for a moment before saying, “So, I saw a method online for learning teleportation. Want to give it a try?”

“Crown.”

The Crowned Meow nodded gracefully, signaling him to continue.

The young man, thrilled that the Crowned Meow agreed, explained, “It’s really simple just practice farting. You don’t even have to put in extra effort. I’ll just ask Aunt Zhou to add some food that promotes intestinal movement to your energy meals.”

The Crowned Meow’s expression stiffened, and it put the sunglasses back on.

The young man didn’t notice anything wrong and continued talking to himself:

“We’ll work a little harder for now, go to the training center, practice farting. Once you master teleportation and qualify for the National Campus Beast Mastery League, my allowance will double.”

“Crown, my future depends on you!”

“Crown.”

After reading a book for a while, Qiao Sang checked the forum again and suddenly noticed several new private messages.

She opened them.

They were all from the user Clear Skies When School Collapses.

[This is all your fault! What kind of stupid advice was that? Now my Crowned Meow has run away from home!]

[I never should’ve trusted you!]

[I’ve asked around, and no one has learned teleportation through intestinal movements!]

[You’re getting reported for this!]

What on earth? Who has a beast that runs away just from practicing farting? Her own Yabao and Little Treasure practiced enthusiastically…

Qiao Sang didn’t believe it at all. She promptly blacklisted Clear Skies When School Collapses, shut her laptop, and went back to her book.

Forty minutes later, her phone buzzed.

Qiao Sang picked it up and saw a new unread message.

[Ms. Qiao Sang, a customer has specifically requested your Treasure-Seeking Ghost for a match. Would you like to accept?]

Little Treasure? Qiao Sang paused.

Ever since she signed the contract with the Beastmaster Battle Club, she’d been getting requests for Yabao as a sparring partner, but they were all during school hours, so she’d turned them down.

This was the first time someone asked for her Little Treasure, and she happened to be free.

Qiao Sang glanced at the time, 9:03 p.m.

Still early.

[Accept]

After replying, Qiao Sang closed her book.

At the Hongying Beastmaster Battle Club.

The moment Qiao Sang walked in, the receptionist greeted her warmly, “You’re here!”

This attitude was completely different from the professional smile she had last time.

Do we know each other? Qiao Sang wondered.

“Yeah, you remember me?”

“Of course, of course.” The receptionist pointed at the tablet on the desk.

“It has all the sparring partners’ profiles. I like to browse it in my free time.”

Ah, that makes sense… Qiao Sang asked, “Which training ground is my customer at?”

The receptionist looked around, confirmed no one was nearby, then leaned forward, lowered her voice, and whispered:

“Training Ground 2. But this customer is a bit different.”

“What’s different?” Qiao Sang asked, curious.

“This time, the customer isn’t human.”

Qiao Sang: ???

“The customer is a Crowned Meow. Its beastmaster didn’t come with it.” The receptionist added.

Qiao Sang was taken aback. A Crowned Meow, a psychic-type beast, a noble among cat-like creatures. And its beastmaster had the nerve to send it over alone.

They must be quite confident.
