Chapter 98: Chapter 94: You Want a Free Ride?
The Alliance divides skills into five tiers.
Low-level, intermediate-level, high-level, super-level, and divine-level.
There is a clear and noticeable difference between them, whether in terms of energy consumption or power magnitude.
Low-level and intermediate-level skills are quite common, and many pet beasts may only be able to exhibit skills of these two levels throughout their lives.
Apart from studying the relevant secret manuals, a pet beast’s eagerness to learn skills is important, but what matters most is its talent.
There’s a saying that goes like this.
...
“Talent determines the ceiling, effort determines the floor.”
Sometimes, even with the best resources, if a pet beast doesn’t have the right talent, it can’t evolve to the upper limit of its species.
The same goes for learning skills.
Logically speaking, considering high-level skills is something pet beasts should start to contemplate only after they have evolved to a higher rank.
Of course, after so many years of development in the Beast Taming society, there have been cases of intermediate-level pet beasts mastering high-level skills.
But such occurrences are definitely recorded in the annals of pet beast prodigies.
There have been cases of intermediate-level pet beasts learning high-level skills, but there has never been an instance of a low-level pet beast doing so.
At least Qiao Sang has never heard of it.
Looking at the Fire-Toothed Dog in front of her, brimming with fighting spirit, Qiao Sang was somewhat worried.
She was gratified that the Fire-Toothed Dog was so positive, but some things can’t be achieved with attitude alone.
Even though she recognized and highly approved of the Fire-Toothed Dog’s talent, some things really shouldn’t be approached with blind confidence.
However, thinking this, Qiao Sang still squatted down, patted the Fire-Toothed Dog’s head, and said with a smile, “Okay, I’ll find a way.”
Discouraging education won’t do.
It’s only right for Beast Tamers to work in unison towards a common goal with their pet beasts.
“But you can’t neglect your regular skill release training,” Qiao Sang added.
Actually, there’s still plenty of time right now; training the Fire-Toothed Dog was the only thing she had to do.
Moreover, the Fire-Toothed Dog saved a lot of time by practicing skill release with its doppelganger.
Even when the F-rank Energy Recovery Potion arrives, she estimated that it would take only about an hour a day to finish training.
There was so much time left for other endeavors.
Of course, effort is one thing, but whether it can be realized is another.
“Yaobao!”
The Fire-Toothed Dog’s eyes lit up; it nodded seriously and then trotted over to the backpack to search for milk.
It wanted milk! It wanted to train!
…
6:10 PM.
At the dinner table.
Ye Ranran was animatedly sharing her experiences of the day.
“You have no idea, all of our colleagues were about to drop their jaws; we went there prepared to sacrifice for the cause, yet we found victory handed to us on a plate. Who could have expected the person to be tied up and ready for us.”
“If it weren’t for Qiao Sang still being a child, our Captain Zhang would probably have recruited her directly into the police force,” she continued.
Jing Wen put down the book in her hand and looked at Qiao Sang, surprised, “Your observational skills are unmatched; maybe you should consider becoming a Breeder in the future.”
Ye Ranran argued, “With such insight, she should be a police officer.”
The uncle, who had been mostly quiet at the table, spoke up, “Ah Sang is a promising seedling for a Professional Beast Tamer; it’d be a pity not to pursue it.”
The aunt, bringing out steaming dishes, laughed and said, “Why talk about something so distant? The most important thing for her age is to study well.”
Normally, Qiao Sang would certainly have been modest and diverted the topic of conversation.
