"Ahhhhh!!!"
A bloodcurdling scream echoed above Saint Water High School.
Qiao Sang had imagined that a pet beast she contracted one day might carry her into the sky, but she had never imagined that pet beast would be Ya Bao.
Flying-type pet beasts were still the usual choice for carrying people through the air.
It wasn't that Psychic Type pet beasts couldn't use Psychic Power to move people through the air.
For one thing, Psychic Type pet beasts were too rare and expensive. For another, keeping a person moving through the air for any length of time consumed a huge amount of energy. The pet beast would have to be at least high-level.
But even if a Superpower Type pet beast could carry someone several or even dozens of kilometers through the air, no one would choose to travel that way.
Why not sit safely on a Flying-type pet beast?
What was the point of floating through the air? It felt less secure and wasn't even as fast.
Neither of those problems applied to Ya Bao, though.
Because she could ride him.
That alone would send the whole country into a frenzy once news of the Flame Listening Dog got out.
Qiao Sang, however, felt anything but thrilled.
She peered down from Ya Bao's back, trembling, and immediately felt dizzy.
"Ya Bao, why are you running up into the sky?" Qiao Sang asked in a shaky voice.
"Ya!"
Ya Bao gave a ringing reply. To pick a star for his little buddy, of course!
"Xun!"
"Xun Xun!"
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost cheered at once.
Qiao Sang: "..."
Ya Bao had been so well-behaved lately that she had nearly forgotten how he used to give her little "surprises" now and then.
Of course, they didn't manage to pick a star.
