Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107: Chapter 103 Teleportation

“Isn’t that Officer Ye?”

“Officer Ye, is this child a relative of yours?”

“Officer Ye, I just saw your white fox, it got second place. Although quite a few looked the same in that round, yours seemed especially lively. I recognized it at first glance.”

“Officer Ye, have you found a partner yet?”

“What’s the name of this little red dog of yours, Officer Ye?”

“Officer Ye…”

...

Qitang Town was small, so small that one would bump into acquaintances just a few steps away. Qiao Sang wasn’t well-known in Hangkang, being away for years, but Ye Ranran was quickly recognized by people.

It was like when elders accompany a child and encounter people they know; the adults engage in conversation while the child becomes the backdrop.

Ye Ranran answered with a smile, while Qiao Sang’s attention was on the live broadcast.

On the big screen, a tangerine-red lamp star was positioned backward opposite to the racetrack, releasing a water jet from its rear that propelled it several meters forward.

Qiao Sang secretly scoffed at the method; although it could speed up the progress, positioning backward came with numerous safety risks, as it could easily lead to collisions with other competing pet beasts.

Before long, the live broadcast on the big screen switched from the surface of the river to the underwater view.

A blue sponge salamander was seen constantly waving its two tails at 360 degrees, spinning like an activated propeller to hasten its speed.

However, it quickly tired out, and the tails finally came to a stop.

The live broadcast then made another shift.

A deep blue spiny seahorse appeared in the view.

Qiao Sang immediately understood that the broadcast was focused on pet beasts that employed unique methods of moving forward!

It made sense, though, considering a marathon is a lengthy athletic event, and continuously watching pet beasts simply running or swimming could be pretty dull.”

The spiny seahorse on the screen would use its straw-like, thin and long snout to take a deep breath every time it moved a distance, and with each deep breath, its coiled tail would unfurl.

Then, a stream of gas surged out, causing the water behind it to bubble up as if boiling.

The force of the gas propelled the spiny seahorse forward by more than a dozen meters.

Qiao Sang stared in disbelief.

Damn, it was actually using the expulsion of “grain qi” to increase its speed!

Who in the world thought of this method?

It was simply brilliant!

It did, however, make one feel sorry for the competing pet beasts in the rear…

Although the method seemed crude, the technology behind it was far from simple. After all, farting wasn’t something one could just do on command—it must have taken specialized training.

For a moment, Qiao Sang held the spiny seahorse and its Beast Tamer in high regard.

Standing there, dumbstruck, was also the Treasure-seeking Ghost. It looked at the live broadcast, feeling as if a door to a new world had opened.

Ever since seeing the spiny seahorse’s method of propulsion, Qiao Sang found the broadcast of other pet beasts somewhat bland in comparison.

Finding it uninteresting, Qiao Sang thought of her third uncle’s Howling Swamp Crocodile.

Where was the Howling Swamp Crocodile?

Why hadn’t it appeared on screen for so long?

Three minutes later, the screen switched to a black inkfish.

Qiao Sang paused for a moment, then involuntarily squinted and peered closer.

This inkfish, why did it look so much like the one belonging to her third uncle?

“Ranran, don’t you think this inkfish looks a lot like third uncle’s?” Qiao Sang asked Ye Ranran uncertainly.

Ye Ranran, who was chatting with the auntie next to her, turned her head upon hearing this.

Seeing the inkfish on the screen using its wing-like side fins to push itself forward by releasing jets of water, she felt a sudden jolt and quickly stood up.

“Ah Sang, we’re doomed!”

Although third uncle desired to be the individual champion of the marathon, it was, after all, a team relay race.

If the pet beast was not properly waiting on the racecourse for the handoff, naturally, the result would be invalidated.

Qiao Sang wasn’t finished; she was the final leg.
