Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 637

Chapter 637: Chapter 577: Caught so quickly?

After sending a message to Tang Yi saying "I’m leaving first," Qiao Sang followed Mai Ya out of the Pet Beast Center.

The assessment task had a time limit, and she did not want to waste time.

"I didn’t expect you would really accept my task," Mai Ya said with a smile on the way.

"Since I’ve accepted your task, you should be able to tell me the real situation now," Qiao Sang said.

"What?" Mai Ya’s smile faded.

Qiao Sang did not beat around the bush but directly stated:

"I just asked the staff, and she said the reason your task was upgraded from one star to two stars is that it’s been posted for nine months, during which 16 Beast Tamers accepted it but none completed it. This is different from what you told me when you sought me out."

At this point, Qiao Sang’s expression turned serious:

"If you want me to complete the task smoothly, you must tell me the real situation."

Mai Ya fell silent for a few seconds before saying:

"I have a suitor named Nadapeng. Every time a Beast Tamer accepts my task, he comes out to threaten them, telling them to give up my task."

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment.

She had thought the withheld information was related to the quantity or strength of the wild Pet Beasts, but it turned out to be just interference due to emotional issues?

This task’s difficulty had nothing to do with wild Pet Beasts at all!

Qiao Sang suddenly regretted accepting this task and wondered if it was still possible to switch tasks at this point...

The atmosphere between the two became somewhat awkward and stiff for a moment.

"Isn’t he your suitor? Why would he do this?" Eventually, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but ask.

"Because I rejected him," Mai Ya said with a cold smirk. "He hopes that this will compel me to ask for his help."

Qiao Sang: "..."

Isn’t this task already nine months old? How can he persist like this? Qiao Sang couldn’t understand it at all.

Immediately, she had another thought and asked, "What rank of a Beast Tamer is he?"

"C-rank," Mai Ya replied.

A C-rank Beast Tamer... Qiao Sang cautiously asked:

"How many General-level Pet Beasts does he have?"

If the other party had two or more General-level Pet Beasts, it might be a bit troublesome.

"One," Mai Ya answered.

That’s not too bad then... Qiao Sang felt relieved.

Mai Ya saw Qiao Sang’s composure as if she were a great master and silently breathed a sigh of relief, thinking her own guess was right, that a high-level Beast Tamer must be protecting her from the shadows.

Not far from where they were, a Pet Beast about a meter tall that looked like a rock silently followed them. Its left eye emitted a faint green light, recording everything in front of it.

Meanwhile, in a coffee shop near the Pet Beast Center, Qu Zhuo sipped his coffee while staring at the screen on his computer in front of him.

The screen was split into two sections, displaying the live movements of Qiao Sang and Tang Yi.

...

About twenty minutes later, Qiao Sang followed Mai Ya to an area where the buildings were obviously decrepit.

People of various skin colors gathered in small groups, giving off the vibe of street thugs and hobos.

Their eyes brazenly scanned Mai Ya, but upon seeing the obviously expensive Pet Beast in the arms of the dark-haired girl and the Little Steel Falcon that followed, they shifted their gazes elsewhere, not daring to look for long.

In a corner, a black man who appeared to be around twenty-five years old took out his phone and typed a text:

[Mai Ya has hired another Beast Tamer.]

...

"I live here," Mai Ya stopped in front of a two-story building with a small courtyard.

Compared to the neighboring structures, this one obviously showed signs of renovation.
