Beast taming, starting from zero point-Chapter 80 - 76: Race Ceiling
Chapter 80: Chapter 76: Race Ceiling
Thinking about so many lessons from the past where Spectral-type Pet Beasts made the trending list…
Not to mention others, just the Treasure-seeking Ghost that tried to frame her today, and the three complicit Spectral-type Pet Beasts that blocked the surveillance cameras, are enough for her to take warning.
Qiao Sang’s gaze became resolute, and she was just about to refuse, when the Treasure-seeking Ghost by her side acutely sensed it.
It took a step back, pinched its own face, pulled down the corners of its mouth, then floated in front of Qiao Sang, and large tears began to silently fall from its eyes.
This time it didn’t cry out loud, simply letting the tears flow ceaselessly.
...
Qiao Sang was taken aback, instinctively feeling that it was up to some trick again.
But the Treasure-seeking Ghost didn’t do anything else; it simply reached out its hand, wanting to take Xiao Xunbao back.
Xiao Xunbao gripped Qiao Sang’s clothes tightly with its two short arms and turned its head to indicate refusal.
“Xun Xun!”
The voice of the Treasure-seeking Ghost was hoarse as it called out, carrying a sense of utter misery.
The two staff members exchanged a knowing look.
“This Treasure-seeking Ghost is its mother, and it is doing this so its child doesn’t have to stay in the Pet Beast Base forever like it,” the middle-aged man said with a touch of sorrow.
“Didn’t you say earlier that the Pet Beast Egg had been reserved?” Qiao Sang asked.
The middle-aged man: “…”
“The Beast Tamer who reserved it also booked two other Pet Beast Eggs, I don’t know whether it’s for gifting or other uses. After all, as a mother, being anxious about handing her child over to an unknown person is understandable,” the blonde staff member explained.
Of course, that was a lie. He was just applying the experience of another Pet Beast to this situation.
Though this Treasure-seeking Ghost wasn’t actually its mother, its goal was indeed to prevent its kin from remaining in the Pet Beast Base like it did.
The male Treasure-seeking Ghost, only five years old, cried even faster, as if its heart had been touched.
Qiao Sang: “…”
Why couldn’t she believe it?
Seeing the girl unmoved, the middle-aged man tried a different tactic, “The Treasure-seeking Ghost has been proven capable of evolving to Emperor Level, while the Cotton Birds only have examples of evolution to King Level. Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?”
It had to be said that the middle-aged man hit the nail on the head.
Emperor-level Pet Beasts correspond to the standard of an A-rank Beast Tamer, whereas King-level Pet Beasts are the basic requirement for becoming a B-rank Beast Tamer.
Of course, even if the growth limit of the Cotton Bird species is King-level, that does not mean that every Beast Tamer can cultivate it to that degree.
Normally, the energy and resources of a Beast Tamer are limited, and the talents of their contracted Pet Beasts can’t all be top-notch.
If out of ten thousand Beast Tamers who contract with Cotton Birds, even one can cultivate it to King-level, it’s already considered quite fortunate.
Most people who contract Cotton Birds don’t consider their growth limit, but Qiao Sang had to.
Because she had the Golden Finger.
With this Golden Finger, she could fully elevate a Pet Beast with low talent to the species’ maximum potential.
But she didn’t know whether the Golden Finger could help a Pet Beast break through the species’ growth limit.
After all, exceeding the growth limit, a matter that concerns the level of life itself, has always been a key research project of the Alliance and is not so easily resolved.
She initially wanted to contract the Cotton Bird for its healing skill, to increase her chances of survival in the wild.
In the end, her ultimate goal was to enhance her strength.
When choosing a Pet Beast yesterday, she seemed to have forgotten that point…
“What about the Water Lantern Crocodile?” Qiao Sang asked.
The middle-aged man: “…”
He sighed inwardly.
The girl was very decisive, and it was clear she had made a choice before coming; it seemed the Treasure-seeking Ghost had picked the wrong person this time…
“Also King Level,” the middle-aged man stated seriously.
Qiao Sang continued to inquire, “And the Cotton Bird?”
“Same, King Level,” the middle-aged man replied.
Qiao Sang pondered thoughtfully.
Her decision yesterday now seemed too rash; perhaps she should go back and study it a bit more…
Xiao Xunbao, sensing that it wasn’t chosen, pursed its mouth and, without any warning, burst into tears.

This startled the Treasure-seeking Ghost so much that it forgot to continue its act, thinking it had accidentally caused this due to its overly genuine performance.
Qiao Sang focused her gaze on Xiao Xunbao.
Though the Treasure-seeking Ghost was a Spectral-type Pet Beast, at least it wasn’t part of the evil crowd.
Actually, if Spectral-type Pet Beasts didn’t enjoy pranks so much, if their personalities weren’t so quirky and were a bit more normal, they would likely be many people’s choice.
This little Treasure-seeking Ghost looked soft and cute, nothing at all like it had a peculiar temperament.
Just as she thought this, the little Treasure-seeking Ghost suddenly stopped crying without any warning, raised its head with tears still in its eyes, and looked at Qiao Sang before sweetly calling out.
“Xun~”
Qiao Sang wore a strange expression on her face.
It felt as though the little Treasure-seeking Ghost knew exactly what she was thinking…
After smiling, the little Treasure-seeking Ghost’s gaze moved to the door as if it saw something.
Qiao Sang’s heart tightened.
She always felt the little Treasure-seeking Ghost’s behavior was abnormal, but when she followed its gaze, she discovered nothing.
“Miss, if you want a pet beast with a higher racial limit, maybe Xiao Liu here could introduce some to you.” said the middle-aged man.
The blonde employee, that is, Xiao Liu, nodded in agreement nearby.
Upon hearing this, the Treasure-seeking Ghost’s mouth puckered, knowing the people at the base were no longer going to help it, and reached out to take the little Treasure-seeking Ghost away.
This time, the little Treasure-seeking Ghost did not dodge because its attention was still on the door.
It was only after leaving Qiao Sang’s side that the little Treasure-seeking Ghost realized what was happening, and puckered its mouth as if it was about to cry.
Right at that moment, the door was suddenly opened.
“Miss, what brings you here?” asked the female worker who opened the door, looking at Qiao Sang.
“Yue!”
The previously inconspicuous Green Joy Butterfly cried out cheerfully and flew to the female worker’s side.
Qiao Sang gazed at the person who entered in a daze and didn’t respond for a long while.
The Treasure-seeking Ghost, clasping the little Treasure-seeking Ghost, had already drifted to the door.
“Wait!” Qiao Sang suddenly called out.
The Treasure-seeking Ghost stopped and turned around, its free hand uncertainly pointing at itself.
“Xun?”
“Right, don’t leave just yet.” said Qiao Sang.
The eyes of the Treasure-seeking Ghost lit up, and it zoomed back in a flash.
The little Treasure-seeking Ghost blinked its teary eyes and looked over.
Qiao Sang could clearly feel her heartbeat accelerate.
She was excited and nervous inside, but it didn’t show on her face.
“How much for this little Treasure-seeking Ghost?”
All three present people were taken aback.
The middle-aged man said, “760,000.”
Qiao Sang didn’t speak, only frowning slightly.
“I can give you a 20% discount.” the middle-aged man quickly added.
“40%.” Qiao Sang suggested.
The middle-aged man was both shocked and pleased.
Although he didn’t know what made the girl suddenly change her mind, her manner of cutting the price indeed indicated she wanted to buy the little Treasure-seeking Ghost.
Yet, the amount she had cut was possibly too steep…
Before he could probe further about the price, he saw the young girl take out a voucher from her pocket and place it on the table.
“This is a voucher worth 500,000 for a pet beast egg. The little Treasure-seeking Ghost should technically still be in its egg but the Treasure-seeking Ghost wanted to stick with me, so it deliberately broke the pet beast egg in front of me. You initially invited me to the office probably because you wanted me to purchase it.”
“My Fire-Toothed Dog was bought from your base, so one could say I’m a regular customer. I am quite disappointed by your handling of this matter.”
“The three Spectral-type Pets that appeared on the security monitor just now probably aren’t doing this for the first time. I believe it wouldn’t look good if this gets out. If possible, how about trading this voucher for the little Treasure-seeking Ghost? I will also keep silent about the events that occurred here.”
“Oh, I forgot to mention that I won this voucher as the first-place prize of the Bai Xinsai which ended just yesterday. Have you heard of the Bai Xinsai? I suppose if I make a statement or something now, there would still be quite a few people interested.”
The Treasure-seeking Ghost listened, stunned.
The middle-aged man: “…!”
Wasn’t it supposed to be them trying to sell the little Treasure-seeking Ghost?
Why did it feel like they were being compelled to sell it now…
20 minutes later.
Qiao Sang, with the Fire-Toothed Dog in her arms and the little Treasure-seeking Ghost perched on her head, walked out of the Hangkang Pet Beast Base.
