“Ahhhhhhh!!!”
A piercing scream echoed over Shengshui High School.
Qiao Sang had once imagined that her contracted beast might help her fly soday, but she never thought that it would be Yabao.
In society, flying-type beasts are usually the ones that can carry people into the sky.
It’s not that psychic-type beasts can’t use telekinesis to move people through the air either.
But on one hand, psychic-type beasts are extrely rare and expensive. On the other, controlling soone in the air for extended periods requires a trendous amount of energy. The beast’s level would need to be quite high.
Even so, no one would use psychic-type beasts for such tasks, even if they could move people for several kiloters.
Wouldn't it be much safer and faster to ride a flying-type beast?
There’s no need to worry about either issue when it cos to Yabao.
Because Yabao can be ridden.
Just this alone—when the news about the Fla Hound spreads—will cause an uproar.
However, Qiao Sang wasn’t feeling any excitent at the mont.
She cautiously glanced down from Yabao’s back and instantly felt dizzy.
“Yabao, why are you running up into the sky?” Qiao Sang asked in a trembling voice.
“Yap!”
Yabao replied loudly. Obviously, he was taking his little buddy to fetch stars!
“Xun!”
“Xun, Xun!”
Little Treasure ghost cheered in excitent.
Qiao Sang: ...
Lately, Yabao had been so well-behaved that Qiao Sang almost forgot how he used to surprise her now and then.
---
Of course, they didn’t end up fetching any stars.
However, Qiao Sang realized that she might have found a way to fly without contracting a flying-type beast.
And she had to admit—Yabao’s smooth fur made for a comfy ride, and without two giant wings obstructing her view, he was practically the perfect flying mount.
Even though using psychic abilities to fly didn’t consu much energy, Yabao had only just evolved and was carrying both her and Little Treasure.
Experiencing such an intense flight for the first ti made Qiao Sang anxious, and she kept urging Yabao to return quickly.
Luckily, Yabao still listened to her.
As for flying in the future, she’d have to test Yabao’s stamina and energy limits first.

The next day.
August 3rd.
It wasn’t until after 8 a.m. that Qiao Sang finally struggled out of bed.
Little Treasure held a bottle of milk, gazing longingly at the sky from beside the bed.
As usual, Yabao was hard at work, floating mid-air in the room practicing his telekinesis.
Three bottles of milk hovered in front of him, crossing paths and feeding themselves to Yabao under the control of his telekinetic powers.
“Maybe I should replace the milk with energy als.”
Qiao Sang mused as she observed how mismatched the tiny milk bottles seed with Yabao’s current size.
After washing up, she found her roommate sitting at the dining table, browsing her phone.
“You’re up!” Jin Feifan looked up in surprise.
“Mm.” Qiao Sang yawned.
“Didn’t sleep well last night?” Jin Feifan asked, noticing how tired Qiao Sang looked.
“Yeah, didn’t sleep well.” Qiao Sang replied.
Although Yabao had listened to her and returned halfway through the night, they didn’t land inside Shengshui High School.
When they finally got back, they found the school gates locked.
Thanks to Yabao, they flew over the wall, only to find that the dormitory entrance was also locked, so they had to fly onto the balcony to get inside.
All the back-and-forth delayed things.
“You didn’t sleep well either?” Qiao Sang picked up on the either in her roommate’s question.
“Yeah, last night I heard this terrifying scream, like sothing straight out of a horror movie. It scared to death! I spent the whole night wondering if sothing terrible had happened outside.” Jin Feifan said nervously.
“I knocked on your door, but you didn’t answer. Did you hear that scream?”
Qiao Sang shook her head.
“Maybe I wasn’t in the dorm at the ti, so I didn’t hear it.”
Jin Feifan paused, her face turning pale again, her nerves returning.
“Could I have been the only one to hear it? It was pretty loud.”
Her roommate really had such a small tolerance for fear.
Seeing Jin Feifan so frightened, Qiao Sang hesitated for a mont before asking, “What ti did you hear it? I can try to rember.”
Jin Feifan thought for a mont and said, “Around 7:40 p.m.”
Qiao Sang recalled that she was still on the field training Yabao at that ti and hadn’t heard anything...
Wait...
Qiao Sang’s face stiffened.
That terrifying scream from a horror movie wasn’t her, was it?
“Did you rember sothing?” Jin Feifan asked expectantly.
“Hehe, no, I didn’t.”

After finishing a day of training that afternoon, Qiao Sang was about to leave when she was called out to.
“Ms. Qin, what’s the matter?” She asked, approaching the wall.
“How do you feel after two days of training?” Qin Wen asked with a smile.
“I feel darker.” Qiao Sang replied seriously.
Back when she trained at ho, she always stayed in the shade. Since coming here, most of her ti was spent under the sun on the field. After only two days, she already felt a shade darker.
Qin Wen: ...
Who asked you that?!
She paused for a few seconds, then said, “You can teach your Treasure-Seeking Ghost the move Black Curtain. It can cast shadows over things to block the sunlight. It won’t hurt anyone if you use it on yourself.”
“Xun.”
Little Treasure blinked.
“Alright.” Qiao Sang nodded. It wasn’t urgent, though. She’d wait until Little Treasure was a month old and ready to start training.
“You’ve already contracted two beasts, and one of them is a mid-level beast, so it’s not suitable for you to keep training with the freshn. Tomorrow at 8 a.m., et at Training Ground 5. From now on, you’ll be training with the sophomore school team.” Qin Wen got straight to the point.
Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up. So the teacher had it all planned out!
“You should have joined the sophomore team yesterday, but they were on a mission. They only returned this afternoon.” Qin Wen added.
“Mission?” Qiao Sang asked curiously.
“Yes, sophomores are different from freshn. The students on the sophomore school team all have at least two mid-level beasts. Besides basic training, we also send them on missions through the Beastmaster Association to get real-world experience."
“Though we have six mbers on our battle team, the individual battle group is different from the team battle group. We require individual battle group mbers to take solo missions, while team battle group mbers take group missions.”
“When you join, it’ll be the sa. The sophomore school team’s coach is Mr. Zheng Guoping—you should’ve seen him during your special recruitnt.” Qin Wen said with a smile.
Qiao Sang thought for a mont and asked, “Is he the one who was a referee?”
“No.” Qin Wen paused. “He’s the one with the loud voice and fiery temper.”
Qiao Sang: ...
“But he’s a really good person.” Qin Wen added.
