Chapter 127: Fierce Dragon Zheng
Chapter 127: Fierce Dragon Zheng
Evening.
Qiao Sang took Fangy to the playground for training after a bath.
They resumed their usual routine of running five centimeters off the ground.
After just a few steps, Qiao Sang, lying on the soft fur, suddenly thought of something. She propped herself up and turned her head, concerned, and said:
"Don't run up into the sky without a word this time."
"Yah!"
Fangy responded cheerfully.
It had no particular obsession with picking stars; it was just something it did because its little brother liked it. If it wasn't allowed to pick stars, so be it—training was more important!
Qiao Sang relaxed and lay back down.
"Xun~"
Treasure Seeker, sitting on its Beastmaster's belly, gazed up at the starry sky without blinking.
After spending so much time together, Qiao Sang had a good idea of what Treasure Seeker liked.
It had a penchant for beautiful, small objects.
Qiao Sang felt it was necessary to teach Treasure Seeker some basic knowledge.
But since Treasure Seeker hadn't even reached a month old, explaining concepts like the universe, celestial bodies, and planets was too advanced.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, "Don't look at how small it seems. It's actually much bigger than Fangy; we just see it as small because we're so far away."
"Xun?"
Treasure Seeker paused, turning its head to look at the massive Fangy.
"Also, many stars don't actually emit light. If you saw them up close, you'd find they're not as bright as your own eyes." Qiao Sang continued.
Treasure Seeker tried to recall the brightness of its own eyes.
It looked up, then down, and finally, with a slight pout, looked up again, its eyes showing a hint of disdain.
Treasure Seeker gazed at the sky for a while, then suddenly stretched out a paw and pointed upward.
"Xun."
"Xun xun?"
"Maybe one day we'll have the chance to see them up close." Qiao Sang replied.
Given that humans had already successfully migrated to other planets, not taking a space trip would be a waste.
But that was a matter for many years in the future. For now, getting into a good university was the priority.
Qiao Sang's consciousness returned to the Beastmaster Codex. Fangy's Psychic Power had reached (Proficient 431/500) and was increasing by 1 point every 30 seconds.
Unlike other Skills, Psychic Power could remain active as long as the energy was maintained.
Gaining 1 point every 30 seconds was an incredibly fast rate of progress.
If Fangy could maintain Psychic Power for 24 hours straight, it would gain 2,880 points of proficiency in a day, reaching Mastery in just seven days.
Of course, that was a dream...
Maintaining Psychic Power for 24 hours would require far too much energy.
Subtracting the time for training, eating, and sleeping, Fangy could practice Psychic Power for at most 2 to 3 hours a day.
They were still at school, and Fangy had to continue training during the day; it couldn't practice as intensively as before.
Back home, even if its energy was drained, Fangy could relax by drinking milk and watching TV.
But there was no TV at school, and when Fangy returned to the dorm, it just used Psychic Power to levitate with nothing else to do. Even so, it managed to practice for 2 to 3 hours a day, driven by the novelty of being able to fly.
However, using Psychic Power while running on the playground seemed to make it more engaging for Fangy, given its active nature.
As Qiao Sang was considering how long to let Fangy run each night, she sensed a slight vibration from the outside world.
Her consciousness returned to reality, and she saw that someone was calling her.
It was Vice Principal Liu Yao.
Qiao Sang quickly answered the call.
Before she could say anything, Liu Yao spoke, "Qiao Sang, all the members of our research project team are in place. Come over tomorrow to meet everyone."
Qiao Sang stood there, stunned for a second. Everyone is here already? This fast?
Seemingly aware of Qiao Sang's thoughts, Liu Yao smiled and said, "Don't worry, we're not starting the research immediately. It takes at least three months from the application to the approval of a research project. However, several researchers are interested in this project and want to come and take a look first."
Qiao Sang let out a sigh of relief. She had thought that the efficiency of this society had reached such a terrifying level.
"But I still have to attend the intensive training tomorrow."
"Don't worry, it's in the evening, around 6 o'clock. I'll have Professor Xian come and pick you up then."
Pick me up?
Qiao Sang recalled her previous experiences with teleportation and politely said, "Vice Principal, it's not necessary to trouble Professor Xian. Just tell me the location, and I'll go there myself."
"It's no trouble, Professor Xian is very fast."
Qiao Sang: "..."
It was precisely because he was too fast that she didn't have time to prepare, which made it troublesome for her.
If only Fangy or Treasure Seeker could learn Spatial Shift, then she could definitely prepare thoroughly before teleporting.
...
The next morning at 7:43.
Qiao Sang, with dark circles under her eyes, set off for Training Ground 5.
She had been so excited about training with the Sophomore Year School Team that she completely forgot their intensive training started at 8 o'clock, an hour earlier than the Freshman Year School Team...
Thinking about having to sleep an hour less every day, Qiao Sang lost the excitement she felt yesterday.
She trudged to Training Ground 5, and as soon as she stepped in, a Water Jet about ten centimeters thick shot towards her.
Qiao Sang froze, her still groggy mind slow to react.
Fortunately, Fangy was quick on his feet and immediately stepped in front, spraying a Spark three times the thickness of the Water Jet.
The Water Jet was instantly pushed back several meters and shattered.
"Bang!"
A loud explosion sent white steam rising into the air above the training ground.
"Sorry, sorry, we were training and accidentally misfired our Skills. Are you okay?"
A boy wearing glasses ran over, accompanied by a Powerful Duck.
"Ya!"
Fangy braced himself, his already red eyes turning even more crimson as he locked onto the culprit who had released the Water Jet.
The boy with glasses immediately stopped in his tracks, standing about three meters away, staring at the familiar he had never seen before.
"Li Shou!"
The Powerful Duck glared and positioned itself in front of its Beastmaster.
"Guanshou, it's our fault. Apologize quickly!"
The boy with glasses snapped back to reality, quickly pressing down on the Powerful Duck's head and bowing himself.
"Li Shou."
The Powerful Duck's expression twisted but obediently called out.
"I'm fine", Qiao Sang said, now fully awake.
Since it wasn't intentional and they had apologized sincerely, she didn't want to make a fuss.
"Fangy, I'm fine, come back", Qiao Sang said.
"Ya."
Fangy glanced at the culprit, who was still bowing his head, then turned to confirm that his Beastmaster was indeed unharmed before returning to her side.
"Xu Yajie, you're in trouble. It's been a week, and you still can't control it. If Fierce Dragon Zheng finds out during the inspection today, you'll be in big trouble", a boy with a crew cut teased from the center of the training ground.
At the same time, a voice filled with suppressed anger came from behind Qiao Sang, "Who are you calling Fierce Dragon Zheng?"
