Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123: Chapter 118 This is Not a Blazehound!

The piercing white light almost blinded Qiao Sang’s eyes.

Qiao Sang was stunned, “Is it, has it evolved?”

Didn’t they say it would take about half a day?!

It hasn’t even been an hour now, right?

The vice-principal is too unreliable!

However, since she had mentally accepted that the Fire-Toothed Dog could evolve today, half a day and an hour made no difference to her.

...

The thought of the Fire-Toothed Dog about to evolve into a Blazehound made Qiao Sang’s heart start to race.

Unlike the somewhat cute appearance of the Fire-Toothed Dog, the Blazehound looks majestic, with a body of blazing red, no longer bearing the black stripes and the tuft of orange hair on its head.

Its imposing appearance is very suitable for practicing the skill of intimidation.

With just one glare at the opponent, some of the more timid opponents would lose the courage to continue the battle.

“Xun!”

“Xun!”

The Treasure-seeking Ghost opened its eyes wide and cried excitedly twice.

Under the eager gaze of Qiao Sang and the Little Treasure-seeking Ghost, the light faded.

The Fire-Toothed Dog… was still a Fire-Toothed Dog.

“Xun?”

The Little Treasure-seeking Ghost cocked its head to the side.

A sudden sense of dread filled Qiao Sang, had the evolution… failed?

“Yaobao.”

The Fire-Toothed Dog looked up at its Beast Tamer and weakly grinned before collapsing onto the bed.

“Yaobao!” Qiao Sang’s heart tightened, and she quickly picked up the Fire-Toothed Dog.

“Xun!”

The Little Treasure-seeking Ghost showed a panicky expression.

The Fire-Toothed Dog hadn’t fainted—it was just the suppression of energy inside its body that was too painful.

“Ya.”

The Fire-Toothed Dog looked at its Beast Tamer and called out weakly.

Qiao Sang was stunned. She used to only understand what the Fire-Toothed Dog meant when it spoke, and though it clearly said it was fine, this time her mind became very clear, almost as if she had an epiphany, she felt the unspoken words of the Fire-Toothed Dog.

“Why did you interrupt your own evolution?” Qiao Sang asked gravely.

The Fire-Toothed Dog didn’t speak, but she felt its answer.

The evolution had been interrupted by the Fire-Toothed Dog itself.

Qiao Sang actually had a hunch, but still couldn’t help asking.

“Ya.”

“Yaya.”

The Fire-Toothed Dog explained, enduring the pain.

It didn’t want to evolve now; it could wait until half a month later to evolve.

Qiao Sang fell silent.

After a few seconds, she spoke, “Didn’t I tell you? We have money, we can afford the penalty for breaching the contract.”

“Ya.”

The Fire-Toothed Dog had a resolved expression, just as it had when it first decided to learn Mars Rain.

“If you don’t evolve now and something goes wrong with your body, and you wait half a month to evolve into a Blazehound, you might not be as strong as the other Blazehounds, you might not be as tall, and you might not look as handsome,” Qiao Sang said with a somewhat sad tone.

The body of the Fire-Toothed Dog stiffened, almost forgetting the pain.

It looked conflicted, as if pondering some world-shattering problem.

After what seemed like an eternity, the Fire-Toothed Dog clenched its teeth, shut its eyes, turned its head to the side, and covered its ears with its paws, signaling its decision.

Qiao Sang’s expression froze when she saw the Fire-Toothed Dog’s gesture.

It had always wanted to become stronger…

The second option about the Fire-Toothed Dog’s evolution in the Beast Taming Codex became even clearer at that moment.

Qiao Sang’s palms were sticky with the cold sweat of the Fire-Toothed Dog due to its pain.

“Xun.” The Little Treasure-seeking Ghost called out worriedly.

“It’s okay,” Qiao Sang reassured.

It’s okay, the problem isn’t serious, she had already thought of a solution.

Qiao Sang looked deeply at the Fire-Toothed Dog, its fur sticky and clumped together from the sweat.

Without further hesitation, she picked up her phone next to her and dialed a number, putting the call on speaker.

The call connected quickly.

“Hello, why are you calling me all of a sudden?” the woman’s voice on the other end asked with a laugh.

“I want to cancel the contract,” Qiao Sang said straightforwardly.

The Fire-Toothed Dog refused to evolve because of the endorsement deal. Since that was the case, cancelling the contract was the way to go.

…

Song Yuan sat at her desk, looking over the sales figures from the day before with satisfaction.

She had certainly not misjudged the situation; ever since the Fire-Toothed Dog took on the endorsement, sales had skyrocketed, traffic had increased multiple times over the past month.

All she had to do was wait for the new designs for next quarter to make another killing.

The sharp ringtone pulled Song Yuan back from her reverie.

Upon checking the caller, it was none other than the very one who had made her a fortune.

Song Yuan answered the phone with a smile.

“I want to cancel the contract.”

Those four words left Song Yuan dumbfounded, and before she could ask why, the other party added another shocker.
