Chapter 131: Renting a Room
Chapter 131: Renting a Room
"Because they all entrusted their other familiars to the Companion Training Hall", Liu Yao replied.
Qiao Sang was taken aback and asked, "Is it for a long time?"
Liu Yao smiled and said, "Yes, after all, a person's energy is limited. Unless you're a Professional Beastmaster, it's impossible to take care of multiple familiars."
"You, as School Team students, have to spend most of your time training your familiars. If you focus all your time on your familiars, that's one thing, but you also need to study."
"In this case, it's very difficult to ensure that both of your familiars make progress in all aspects. However, if you keep one by your side and the other at the Training Hall, it will be much more efficient."
Qiao Sang nodded.
Indeed, when you have multiple familiars, it can be hard to manage them all.
If you leave your familiar with someone else during class for training, it's easy to gain a time efficiency advantage over classmates who don't train their familiars.
Moreover, different attribute races have different training focuses. Some familiars are suitable for certain types of training, while others are not.
For example, a Treasure Seeker is not suitable for physical speed training. With its Ghost-type traits and the Teleport skill, it can already be unpredictable in battle.
Moreover, its movement and evasion primarily rely on energy rather than physical strength.
"Do you have any other questions?" Liu Yao asked.
Qiao Sang didn't want to waste this rare opportunity to get answers from a knowledgeable expert.
On the path of a Beastmaster, it's almost impossible to go far without guidance. Even with money and resources, you need someone to tell you how to use them.
Otherwise, she might have ended up like when the Blazefruit was in front of her, and she foolishly thought it was a fruit for humans to eat.
Although Qiao Sang has a Golden Finger, if not for Fangy's high talent and diligence, and the ability to discuss Skill learning online with others, she wouldn't have come this far on her own.
Qiao Sang asked about the questions that had been weighing on her mind for the past two days: "I noticed that when Fangy uses Psychic Power, it can't use Fire Skills. Is it because Skills of different attributes can't be used simultaneously?"
She had looked it up online before, but the explanations varied. Each one seemed logical, and she couldn't determine which was the correct answer.
Liu Yao was taken aback for a moment, not expecting Qiao Sang to ask this question...
He thought for a moment and said, "What you're referring to is Combination Techniques. It is possible, but this usually happens in double battles. If a single familiar tries to perform Combination Techniques, it's very difficult."
"Take your Fangy, for example. Ignoring the attribute issue, do you think it can release Flame Jet and Flame Vortex at the same time?"
Qiao Sang shook her head, "Of course not, it only has one mouth."
"Similarly, when a familiar is maintaining one Skill, it's almost impossible for it to use another Skill", Liu Yao smiled. "You can think about it differently. Why do Skills have to be used simultaneously? If a familiar can release Skills quickly enough, it can still form Combination Techniques."
Qiao Sang asked, "But a Psionic Familiar can use Psychic Power to stay in the air and attack with Skills at the same time. Why can't it use other Skills when controlling others with Psychic Power?"
"Because using Psychic Power to maintain its position in the air is already an instinct for them", Liu Yao explained. "When a Skill becomes as natural as breathing, it frees up energy for other tasks."
So that's how it is...
While Qiao Sang was chatting with Liu Yao, Fangy had already circled the private room three times.
Where's Mirror?
Where's the mirror?
……
There are a total of nine researchers on the project.
For some reason, two fewer people showed up today. Seeing that Vice Principal didn't ask, Qiao Sang naturally kept quiet as well.
Hardly anyone was eating; they were all gathered around Fangy, their eyes shining as they peppered it with questions.
After the meal, they added a research group chat, and Qiao Sang left the Yuehe Hotel without heading back to school.
She had an appointment.
……
Xingtong Street.
Near Holy Water High School.
"Are you Miss Qiao?" A young man in his twenties, wearing a white shirt, descended on a Plump Homing Dove.
"It's me", Qiao Sang nodded.
"You can call me Xiao Wang. Which of the two houses would you like to see first?" the young man asked.
He subtly glanced at the familiar beside Qiao Sang, which had left him amazed but whose name he couldn't recall.
"The one on Shitu Road", Qiao Sang said.
It was closer to Holy Water High School and her top choice.
An hour later, Qiao Sang chose the house on Changan Road.
The reason was simple: it was cheaper...
The house on Shitu Road cost 12,000 Union Coins per month, while the one on Changan Road only cost 5,000 Union Coins per month...
The house on Changan Road was about the same in terms of size, layout, and decoration as the one on Shitu Road. Both were listed online for around 10,000 Union Coins.
But the landlord of the Changan Road house had lowered the price two days ago due to an urgent need to rent it out.
Thanks to Xiao Wang's persuasive tongue, Qiao Sang naturally ended up renting it.
By the time she signed the lease and received the keys, it was nearly 10 PM.
Qiao Sang didn't rush back to school.
She brought Fangy to the courtyard, where there was a pond she particularly liked, and smiled, "You can take a look at yourself in the water for now. The mirror isn't big enough, so I'll buy a full-length one when we move in tomorrow."
Fangy was almost moved to tears.
So you haven't forgotten!
It had thought its Beastmaster had forgotten!
"Yah!"
Fangy eagerly ran to the pond and looked down, only to be stunned.
Who is this handsome familiar?!
"Xun~"
The Treasure Seeker, which had been invisibly perched on Qiao Sang's head, floated down to the pond and started looking at its reflection.
As it watched, it began making faces at its reflection in the water.
"Yah?"
"Yah Yah?"
Fangy turned to look at its Beastmaster with a serious expression.
Qiao Sang's lips twitched, and she replied, "No mistake, this super powerful, incredibly handsome familiar is you."
It must have picked up those adjectives from Super Spicy Wings...
"Yah!"
Fangy's eyes lit up, and it turned back to the water, excitedly admiring itself.
Three minutes later, the Treasure Seeker got tired of playing and floated back to Qiao Sang's head, while Fangy continued to look at itself.
Ten minutes later, Fangy was still looking.
Qiao Sang: "..."
"Fangy, that's enough. We'll get a bigger mirror tomorrow. For now, I want to try a training exercise", Qiao Sang said.
The idea had come to her after her conversation with Vice Principal that evening.
Although it was late, she just wanted to give it a try and wouldn't waste much time.
"Yah."
Hearing the word "training", Fangy immediately turned away from the pond, no longer absorbed in its own reflection.
"First, create a clone", Qiao Sang said.
Fangy complied.
Two identical Flame Listeners appeared by the pond, indistinguishable from each other.
Qiao Sang picked up a stone from the ground and threw it over the pond.
"Use Psychic Power to control the stone with your clone."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Flame Listener on the left's eyes turned blue, and the stone stopped falling, hovering in mid-air.
Watching the stationary stone, Qiao Sang's heart raced. She then said, "Now, try using the original to shoot a Spark at it."
