Chapter 188 -179: Really Addicted
The entire training field fell silent.
The Thistle Berry’s spikes stood rigidly on end, frozen in place, not daring to move a muscle.
The instigator “Shi Gaofeng” turned to start running on the sports field, but Zheng Baoping was quick to react, grabbing him by the collar.
“Huanhuan?”
“Shi Gaofeng” turned his head, a puzzled look on his face.
Zheng Guoping fell silent for a long while before asking, “What does Huanhuan mean?”
“Shi Gaofeng” was just about to explain when he suddenly remembered something. Panic flashed across his face as he covered his mouth with his hands, and sweat began dripping down his forehead.
It wasn’t so much sweat as it was water, and the more it flowed, the more it was like rain.
Zheng Guoping watched the nonsensical sweating phenomenon and fell silent again.
He didn’t immediately connect Shi Gaofeng to the ‘Water Baby’ phenomenon.
On one hand, there were many Pet Beasts in the world, each with their strange characteristics and abilities; it was rare for someone to link a bizarre occurrence to a specific Pet Beast immediately.
On the other hand, he had never thought Shi Gaofeng had the audacity…
Though he had his suspicions, Zheng Guoping still found it unlikely, and asked again, “I’m asking you again, what did you mean by what you just said?”
“Shi Gaofeng” looked helplessly at the Thistle Berry, seeking assistance.
The Thistle Berry stiffened even more under his gaze.
“Yaobao…”
Yaobao couldn’t stand idly by and attempted to help with the translation.
Qiao Sang swiftly covered its mouth as quickly as lightning striking before one can cover one’s ears.
“Great Flame Sparrow.”
As soon as Yaobao fell silent, the Great Flame Sparrow started to translate.
Wang Yao understood and wanted to laugh but didn’t dare, her expression beginning to contort.
While the Pet Beasts understood, the humans couldn’t… The moment Zheng Guoping realized, his face darkened, and he called out Shi Gaofeng’s name through gritted teeth.
“Shi Gaofeng” and the Thistle Berry shuddered all over.
“You two, come out here!” After saying that, Zheng Guoping glanced toward Xu Yajie, who was trying to make herself less noticeable: “And you, come out here too!”
Xu Yajie: “…”
The vast training field was left with only Qiao Sang and Wang Yao.
Zheng Guoping’s roaring could be occasionally heard from outside the door.
Wang Yao couldn’t hold back any longer and burst out laughing, “Hahahaha, how on earth did Shi Gaofeng manage to get into Shengshui Middle School with such a brain, coming up with such harebrained ideas.”
“But Shi Gaofeng was a special admission, he only scored just over 400 points on the middle school exams, thinking about it, it does seem reasonable that he could come up with such an idea, hahahaha, I can’t take it, I’m going to die laughing…”
Qiao Sang: “…”
Feeling somewhat insulted…
…
Later that night, back at home,
Xiao Xunbao couldn’t wait to put on the Virtual Helmet and turn it on.
Qiao Sang didn’t expect Xiao Xunbao to have such strong learning abilities, knowing exactly where the switches were… Qiao Sang watched Xiao Xunbao operate the Virtual Helmet with admiration.
After eating its Energy Pills, Yaobao went out to the courtyard to practice its Skill release as usual, but what was different from before was that the 16 Flame Listening Dogs, including the main body, split into two groups—half practicing Flame Tooth and the other half practicing Telekinesis.
After several days, Qiao Sang picked up her books to study again.
She had to admit that Wang Yao’s words that morning had struck a nerve…
As someone who only scored 359 points on her middle school exams, Qiao Sang felt she had to make an effort.
It wasn’t impossible for her to get into a top-tier institution by acing the cultural exam, without relying on a win against Li Tang Middle School to qualify for the test.
After all, the knowledge at Beast Taming High School differed significantly from middle school, and with three years until the college entrance examination, it was just memorizing and practicing… Qiao Sang felt it wasn’t a big problem for her.
However, after just half an hour, Qiao Sang’s mind was no longer on her books.
She remembered what Zheng Baolong had said that morning about the National Campus Beast Taming Competition.
