"Hello?" Qiao Sang casually answered the call.
A deep, mature male voice sounded.
"My last na is Yang. I just accepted the task you posted. Is it convenient for to co over now?"
Qiao Sang glanced at Yabao, who was standing by Lubao like a stiff statue, silent and unmoving.
She decisively responded, "Yes, that's fine!"
After hanging up, she opened the task platform on her phone to check the personal information of the person who accepted the task.
[Na: Yang Du, Gender: Male, Age: 53]
[Beastmaster Level: B]
[Task Ability Rating: B]
[Task Completion Rate: 98%]
[Positive Feedback Rate: 86%]
[Negative Feedback: 9 (Viewable)]
A B-level Beastmaster... Qiao Sang couldn't help but be impressed by this information.
Honestly, since it was her first ti posting a task, she hadn’t set specific requirents for the Beastmaster’s level.
Having a B-level Beastmaster take it up in such circumstances? If she didn’t go buy a lottery ticket with this luck, it’d be a waste.
The ranks for Beastmasters beco more selective at the higher levels.
In a city, there might be a few hundred C-level Beastmasters, though most are older. But B-level Beastmasters, counting even retirees, number fewer than a hundred in the entire province.
Not to ntion that the B-level exam for Beastmasters is challenging. The 50% brain area developnt requirent alone filters out nearly 90% of candidates.
The ranks are like a pyramid, with fewer people the higher you go.
A 50% brain area developnt, paired with a B-level Beastmaster title, truly deserves the term elite.
Should I prepare so fruit, brew a cup of tea, and wait for this elite? Although, I think I don’t have any tea at ho… Qiao Sang found her mind drifting to such thoughts.
Ding dong.
The doorbell suddenly rang from the entrance.
So fast?!
Qiao Sang quickly went to open the door.
"Yang Du?"
"Yes, that's ."
The man speaking had a lean face with defined features, a bit of stubble, and ssy hair that gave him a disheveled charm.
He looked nothing like a 53-year-old middle-aged man, more like a 27-year-old young professional who had been working overti without ti to care for himself.
If it weren't for her earlier experience with the school principal, Qiao Sang might have struggled to associate this man with his age.
"Co on in."
Qiao Sang led him to sit on the couch in the living room.
Yang Du stared intently at Qiao Sang and asked, "I’d like to confirm first, is the paynt you offered real?"
"It’s real." Qiao Sang poured a glass of water and placed it in front of him.
Yang Du stared at her for a mont, sighed, and said, "Sorry, but this is very important to . Are there any adults at ho? I'd like to discuss the treatnt plan with them."
"No, I live here alone." Qiao Sang replied.
"I posted the task myself, so you can just ask anything."
Yang Du imdiately felt a headache coming on. He sensed that this task might be a wasted effort.
"Never mind." Yang Du made a hand sign, and a red star array lit up on the floor.
Suddenly, a large creature with four legs, a mostly blue body, black fins, a white belly, and a powerful build appeared in the living room. Its dorsal fin extended backward and connected with its tail fin.
It was a general-level pet beast: The Abyssal Zegua.
As expected of a B-level Beastmaster. He brought out a general-level beast right away... Qiao Sang quietly marveled.
"Soybean, stay here. I’ll co back in ten days." Yang Du instructed.
"Ze," the Abyssal Zegua, called Soybean, nodded in response.
"I'll be going, then." Yang Du said, preparing to leave.
"Wait!" Qiao Sang called out.
Yang Du turned around.
Qiao Sang looked helpless.
"You’re just leaving it here like that? What about food?"
A general-level beast could easily eat a month’s salary for a regular worker in a single al.
Yang Du replied calmly, "Every day, I’ll send a beast over with food. Just open the door when it arrives."
Qiao Sang glanced at the Abyssal Zegua, then sighed.
"Another thing… I’m looking for a pet that can stay by my side 24/7 and summon rain whenever needed. The Abyssal Zegua is impressive, but I still have to go to school. With its size, it can’t follow there."
Sotis, the Beastmaster’s strength isn’t the main factor. Suitability is key.
Yang Du seed unconcerned.
"Understood, I’ll cancel the task."
With that, he waved his hand and re-summoned the Abyssal Zegua back.
"Yap."
"Lu lu."
At that mont, Yabao and Lubao walked over from the yard.
Yang Du's eyes widened, his breath quickening, his face filled with shock and joy. His gaze locked onto the light blue pet beast, unable to look away.
Water Luriana?! This is Water Luriana?! In his search for cures, he had investigated every possible treatnt and naturally knew about Water Luriana’s divine healing skill, Healing Light.
But while he might be a B-level Beastmaster, it didn’t an much within the entire league. Forget applying for Water Luriana’s help, he couldn’t even get a glimpse of it.
And yet, such a rare, precious creature had appeared right in front of him!
The impact of that mont was beyond words.
"Is sothing wrong?" In a daze, he heard the girl’s voice beside him.
"Lu lu." Lubao shyly called out.
"Yap..."
Yabao stood stiffly.
Qiao Sang looked puzzled.
Lubao didn’t explain and simply moved two steps to the left.
Yabao followed and moved to the left as well.
Lubao took two steps forward, and Ya Bao followed.
"Lu lu..."
Lubao stopped and looked at Qiao Sang.
Do you get it now?
Qiao Sang: !!!
She shot Yabao a look of exasperation. I wanted you to charm her, not play bodyguard!
"Yap..."
Yabao gave his Beastmaster an innocent look.
Just as Qiao Sang was about to lecture Yabao about his impression on Lubao , Yang Du asked in a strained voice, "Are both of these your pet beasts?"
"Yes." Qiao Sang turned to him.
"Sorry for the trouble."
In retrospect, she should have been clearer with her task requirents.
"Trouble? Not at all!" Yang Du's entire deanor changed, his eyes gleaming.
"I’ll take this task!"
Qiao Sang blinked, surprised.
"But the Abyssal Zegua..."
Yang Du interrupted her, "Don’t worry about that. I may not know why you want a rain-summoning pet at your side 24/7, but I figure you just want it to rain whenever you need it."
"The Abyssal Zegua may not be able to accompany you to school, but I can!"
Qiao Sang looked at him, puzzled.
"You’ll follow 24/7, even to school?"
"Exactly!" Yang Du nodded.
"I don’t mind if you stay here, but how will you co to school? Outsiders aren’t allowed." Qiao Sang pointed out.
Yang Du chuckled, made a hand sign, and summoned a two-ter-tall pet beast, all white with a zipper down its front.
"Edama, let inside."
"Zip..."
The pet beast, Edama, unzipped itself from the top down, revealing a hollow space inside.
Yang Du stepped inside.
"..."
Edama zipped itself back up.
Then, he disappeared.
