Chapter 1198: Migala's Arrangement (Two-in-One)
1203. Chapter 1198: Migala’s Arrangement (Two-in-One)
Qiao Sang abruptly halted her thoughts and asked,
“Are you unable to move, or can you no longer use Discharge?”
“Tingting.”
Tingbao let out a cry, indicating it couldn’t activate its Discharge Skills.
Finally succeeded… Treasure Seeker inwardly mopped her brow.
Though Liu’s attacks had been entirely painless, failing to inflict a Curse after so many attempts almost made her wonder if there was something wrong with her Cursed Body’s ability.
So it was under the Curse of the Cursed Body… Qiao Sang glanced at Fangy and nodded, signaling that it could now use Holy Flame.
“Ya Ya!”
Fangy perked up, opened its mouth, and immediately spat out a golden flame that engulfed Tingbao.
Migala’s attention sharpened once more.
The golden flame carried no scorching heat—only warmth.
“Tingting…”
As the flame washed over it, Tingbao felt a surge of warmth coursing through its body.
Then, it sensed an invisible restraint lift entirely, its expression softening into bliss.
The flame vanished.
“Try using Discharge now,” Qiao Sang said.
“Tingting.”
Tingbao chirped, then crackled with lightning that surged like a flying serpent and struck Treasure Seeker.
Treasure Seeker: “? ? ?”
Wait, didn’t it already get Cursed? Why is it attacking me again?!
“Tingting!”
Tingbao’s voice brimmed with delight, signaling its abilities were restored.
“Ya Ya!”
Fangy, equally thrilled, hopped up and down.
This was the first time it had ever unlocked such a power.
“This Curse lifted surprisingly quickly,” Qiao Sang remarked, her face brightening. Then she paused, turning to Teacher Migala. “Can Holy Flame remove all types of Curses?”
“There’s no specific record on that,” Migala replied.
Qiao Sang nodded. The rarer the Skill, the sparser the historical records—since so few people truly understood its effects and capabilities.
“But you can explore it yourself,” Migala added. “That’s actually what I wanted to discuss next.”
Qiao Sang adopted an attentive posture.
“Skills that remove Curses are generally categorized under Purify. Studies show that the more Curses you remove and the greater their difficulty, the faster your proficiency grows.” Migala explained. “The same principle likely applies to Holy Flame. Since its primary effect is removing Curses, repeatedly using it should boost your proficiency significantly.”
“Therefore, I want you to take on more Remove Curse missions at the Beastmaster Center,” Migala outlined her plan.
Much more efficient than that, Qiao Sang thought. Fangy can just keep using Holy Flame instead. That’s way faster than hunting for Remove Curse missions… Still, she nodded.
“I understand.”
It was normal for a teacher to assign tasks. There was no reason to reveal Holy Flame’s secret now. While taking Remove Curse missions felt inefficient, it wasn’t a major issue—Fangy had clones. The original could accompany her on missions while the clones stayed behind to train with Holy Flame.
Suddenly, she asked, “Should I take on all Remove Curse missions? What if I fail? That might leave a Negative Review.”
Migala chuckled. “Your priority is boosting Holy Flame’s proficiency. Don’t worry about reviews. You’re not a Beastmaster who relies on missions for a living.”
That made sense.
Migala continued, “If you want a good reputation, start with simpler Curses first. Once you understand Fangy’s capabilities, tackle harder ones.”
Pausing, she added, “Once Holy Flame generates actual heat, you won’t need missions anymore.”
Qiao Sang nodded. “I’ll do that.”
Then she asked, “Shall we visit the Fire Spirit Ore Vein from a century ago tomorrow?”
Migala replied, “We can go, but later. I contacted Jacqueline—she’ll arrive tomorrow.”
With Fangy evolving to Imperial Tier, a physical examination and recalibrated Energy Pills were necessary.
Teacher Migala’s as efficient as ever… Qiao Sang mused. “Understood!”

The Next Day – Early Morning
Qiao Sang freshened up, had breakfast, then picked up her watering can to tend to Xialala in the flowerpot.
Since learning Xialala loved being watered, she’d kept the can in Treasure Seeker’s Ring.
“Xia Xia~”
Xialala’s eyes crinkled happily as the water touched it.
“Dong dong…”
A knock echoed.
Hearing it, Xialala’s Enduring Flower swayed, instantly transforming into Freshbloom’s form.
“Xunxun~”
Treasure Seeker floated to the door, peeked outside, then opened it.
Jacqueline entered—not her usual self. Her gaze locked onto Fangy, her expression shifting into something complex.
It really evolved…
“Ya Ya!”
Fangy recognized the visitor, eyes brightening as it chirped a greeting. It knew this human was the Familiar Trainer here to conduct its check-up and prepare new Energy Pills.
“Teacher, you’re here,” Qiao Sang greeted, continuing to water as she smiled.
Seated on the sofa, Migala gestured toward Fangy. “Check it over. This is Yan Jiaou’s evolved form—now named Fan Di Duo.”
“This evolution speed is… absurd,” Jacqueline murmured.
As a teacher at the Imperial Beastmaster Academy, keeping track of students’ progress wasn’t hard—especially for someone as renowned as Qiao Sang. She knew Yan Jiaou had evolved into a Royal Beast in under a year, achieving an unprecedented form in such a short span.
Having trained Familiars for decades at the Academy, she’d seen countless prodigious talents. Yet, a Familiar reaching Imperial Tier this quickly? Never before.
“Just some fortunate opportunities,” Qiao Sang smiled.
What extraordinary opportunity could possibly allow a Royal Beast with an unknown Evolution Path to ascend to the Imperial Tier... Jacqueline's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Snap out of it", Migala said. "Help me check."
Jacqueline exhaled slowly, set down the case in her hands, opened it, and retrieved the equipment.
Fangy stood beside her without a word.
Jacqueline quickly began the examination.
About ten minutes later, her eyes locked onto a peculiar reading on the device. She murmured, "Fan Di Duo's internal Fire Energy seems... different."
Different? How so? Qiao Sang's heart clenched involuntarily.
Before she could ask, Migala calmly replied, "You're not mistaken. It has Awakened the Holy Flame."
Ah, that explained the anomaly in Fangy's Flame Energy... Qiao Sang silently exhaled in relief.
Holy Flame? The same power attributed to Li Ou Yasi? Jacqueline blinked, her expression dazed. "Isn't that supposed to be Li Ou Yasi's signature Skill?"
Indeed, such news would shake anyone's composure. Migala nodded. "Precisely that Skill."
"How could Fan Di Duo possibly Awaken the Holy Flame? Are you absolutely certain? Could this be an error?" Jacqueline's voice trembled with disbelief.
Her first thought was impossible, but the second was immediate - mistakes might happen with ordinary experts, but never with Senior Expert Migala...
Before she could finish her spiral of thoughts, Fangy opened its mouth and unleashed a jet of golden flame.
Jacqueline froze in place.
Though she knew Migala's evaluations were never wrong, witnessing it firsthand still sent shockwaves through her mind.
The legendary Holy Flame of Li Ou Yasi - how could Fan Di Duo possess it?
Could it possibly carry the bloodline of Divine Beasts like Li Ou Yasi? But no, Fan Di Duo was clearly a familiar from Blue Star...
Thoughts raced through Jacqueline's mind, leaving her momentarily disoriented.
Amidst the chaos, Qiao Sang ventured, "Maybe Fangy absorbed too much Fire Spirit Crystal."
Fire Spirit Crystal? At Jacqueline's stunned question, memories of the Fire Spirit Crystal's properties surfaced. After a brief pause, she asked, "Where on earth did you find so many Fire Spirit Crystals?"
Migala shot Qiao Sang a look that clearly said, You brought this up - you explain.
Fine, I'll tell them... Qiao Sang launched into the condensed story of encountering Li Ou Yasi's spiritual form and their transmigration experience.
Thanks to previous practice explaining to the Vice Principal, she kept it concise this time, carefully omitting the part about Xialala's presence from a hundred years in the future.
As Teacher Mikara had said, the fewer people who knew about Xialala, the better.
True to expectations, Migala listened without surprise or interruption.
When Qiao Sang finished, Jacqueline's expression had gone completely blank.
She remained frozen for over ten seconds.
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy broke the silence with an impatient cry, reminding them they hadn't finished the examination.
Migala said, "Continue checking Fangy."
"O-Of course..." Still dazed, Jacqueline resumed her work half-mechanically.
Sensing her mental state, Migala ordered, "Awakening Technique."
Pengamei's eyes glowed blue as she focused on Jacqueline.
The Awakening Technique - a Psychic Type Intermediate Skill capable of dispelling confusion enchantments or instantly clearing muddled thoughts. Qiao Sang recognized it immediately.
Jacqueline's daze lifted. She glanced between Migala and Qiao Sang, her expression complex. "Never imagined you two encountered so much."
"Neither did I", Qiao Sang agreed.
Saying nothing more, Jacqueline resumed her examination with renewed focus.
Understanding Fangy's Evolution process, she soon reached a new conclusion: "Besides the Holy Flame, Fan Di Duo has also Awakened Solar Power."
I remember Yan Jiao evolved through absorbing Solar Power. Fire-type familiar beasts evolving this way indeed carry a possibility of Awakening this Trait.
No wonder she's a top-tier familiar trainer from the Imperial Beastmaster Academy... Qiao Sang feigned surprise. "You're serious?"
Migala paused, then casually asked, "Can you determine the rank of this Solar Power?"
Jacqueline first answered Qiao Sang, "Absolutely serious."
Then continued, "That requires further testing. Higher-tier Solar Power demands longer absorption periods."
This could take an entire day... Qiao Sang didn't want to waste time. Curiosity lighting her features, she asked, "If the Solar Power reaches S-Class, can it directly absorb Solar Energy to replenish power?"
"Correct", Jacqueline nodded. "But only S-Class Solar Power has this effect."
Hardly had she finished speaking when Fangy eagerly dashed to the window.
Sunlight streamed through the window, bathing Fangy in golden radiance. Its pupils elongated vertically, glowing faintly gold.
Soon, visible golden particles began pouring into its body.
Jacqueline's recently regained composure shattered once more.
Migala's eyes widened. She shot to her feet, then realizing her lapse, slowly sat back down.
Nicely done, Fangy. No need for explanations now... Qiao Sang's voice brimmed with genuine astonishment. "Is Fangy actually absorbing Solar Energy?"
Jacqueline snapped back to reality. "Indeed... S-Class Solar Power..."
Even among S-Class Traits, differences existed. An S-Class Laziness Trait might make a familiar refuse to act, sleeping for a month without hunger. But S-Class Solar Power was exceptional - not only enhancing all solar-related activities, but directly converting sunlight into energy.
If Traits formed a hierarchy, S-Class Solar Power would crown the peak for fire-type familiars.
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy stopped absorbing and chirped joyfully to its Beastmaster.
"Continue the examination", Migala inhaled deeply, her voice carefully composed.
This time, Jacqueline quickly processed the revelation and resumed her work.
Royal Beasts' physiology was complex. Approximately an hour later, the examination finally concluded.
