Chapter Summaries

After Ya Bao learned Tactile Power, Qiao Sang returned to training camp and explained its evolution to Jin Feifan. The next morning, everyone crowded around Ya Bao, and Xian Teacher suddenly transported Qiao Sang away.

• Qin Wen called the Vice Principal, and Xian Teacher appeared before Qiao Sang and transported her away with Celestial Manifestation Bat.

Vice Principal Liu Yao discussed why Qiao Sang’s Fire Fang Dog had evolved into the new Flame Listening Dog and asked her to join a research study. He offered her trainee researcher status, off-campus living, phone permission outside class, and a monthly salary, and Qiao Sang accepted.

• Liu Yao examined Ya Bao’s new form and told Qiao Sang that exceeding normal Energy Value alone could not explain its evolution.
• Qiao Sang suggested affinity might have contributed, but Liu Yao explained that Fire Fang Dogs could not evolve through affinity alone and asked what else was different about Ya Bao.

• Liu Yao revealed that Trainee Researchers earned one hundred thousand a month, and Qiao Sang eagerly accepted the opportunity.

Qiao Sang’s newly evolved Flame Listening Dog was assigned to the Personal Combat Team, and its first training battle against Qin Wen’s Tongue Tongue Drop ended with Ya Bao landing a powerful hit. The chapter left the group stunned by the strength of Ya Bao’s attack.

• Qiao Sang suggested that the Flame Evolution Potion and Xian Teacher’s Space Movement might have influenced Ya Bao’s evolution, prompting Liu Yao to realize that the new Psychic Type made the research far more significant.
• Qiao Sang learned that Qin Wen and Luo Qian were arguing over whether she should join the Personal Combat Team or the Personal Coordination Team, and she chose the Combat Team.
• Qiao Sang joined Qin Wen’s training group, where Ya Bao prepared to make up the combat test it had missed.
• Qin Wen ordered Tongue Tongue Drop to face Ya Bao, and Qiao Sang’s pet launched a fast, powerful fireball before its opponent could form a Water Wall.
• Tongue Tongue Drop jumped to evade the attack, but the fireball exploded beneath it and scorched its soles, astonishing the watching students.

Qiao Sang’s Ya Bao dominated a combat test before she trained its Psychic Power by having it carry her around the school field. When Ya Bao flew toward a star for Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, Qiao Sang realized they had left the school grounds.

• Ya Bao struck Tongue Tongue Drop with a fireball and briefly immobilized it with Psychic Power, prompting Qin Wen to end the battle before Ya Bao could use Spark Rain.
• Qiao Sang searched for rentals near Saint Water High School and decided to train Ya Bao’s Psychic Power while it carried her.
• Qiao Sang and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost relaxed on Ya Bao’s back as it hovered around the field, and Ya Bao flew off toward a star for its little brother.
• Qiao Sang looked around and discovered that the school, field, and ground were nowhere to be seen.

After Ya Bao took Qiao Sang and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost flying to pick a star, Qiao Sang discovered her roommate had heard her scream during the flight. Teacher Qin then assigned Qiao Sang to train with the Grade Two School Team, where she would begin taking missions.

• Ya Bao flew Qiao Sang and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost into the sky to pick a star, but Qiao Sang became frightened and made him turn back.
• Qiao Sang and her pets returned to the dormitory late by flying onto the balcony after finding the school and dormitory gates locked.

Qiao Sang brought Ya Bao and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost to train, then learned that researchers wanted to meet her about the research project. The next morning, she arrived at Training Ground No. 5 and was nearly hit by a Water Gun, while an angry voice challenged someone’s use of the name Zheng Baolong.

• Qiao Sang told Ya Bao not to fly off to pick stars, and explained to Little Treasure Hunting Ghost that stars looked small and bright because they were far away.
• Qiao Sang checked Ya Bao’s Psychic Power progress and considered having it practice while running around the school grounds.
• Vice Principal Liu Yao told Qiao Sang that interested researchers would meet her the following evening, and said Lao Xian would pick her up.
• Qiao Sang arrived late and sleepy at Training Ground No. 5, where Guan Shou’s Power Head Duck accidentally fired a Water Gun at her.
• Ya Bao blocked the Water Gun with flames, and Guan Shou apologized after Qiao Sang confirmed she was unharmed.
• A crew-cut boy teased Xu Yajie about failing to train Power Head Duck properly, and an angry voice demanded to know who had called someone Zheng Baolong.

Qiao Sang joined Zheng Guoping’s training group and watched him criticize the seniors for their failed missions and poor control of their pet beasts. The training shifted to a red-target exercise, but Xu Yajie’s Power Head Duck instead blasted Zheng Guoping in the face with a Water Gun.

• Shi Gaofeng deflected Zheng Guoping’s anger by blaming Xu Yajie’s inability to control his Power Head Duck’s Water Gun.
• Zheng Guoping recognized Qiao Sang, introduced her to the group as a freshman, and reviewed the seniors’ mission failures.
• Zheng Guoping scolded Shi Gaofeng, Xu Yajie, and Wang Yao for their pet beasts’ mistakes during their missions.
• Zheng Guoping activated a rocky training field with six small red targets and called Xu Yajie to go first.
• Xu Yajie’s Power Head Duck fired a narrow Water Gun that hit Zheng Guoping in the face instead of the targets.

Qiao Sang joined a training test focused on compressing skills to extend their range, while her hidden Little Treasure Hunting Ghost exposed itself and embarrassed Zheng Baolong. She had Ya Bao attempt a narrowed Flame Vortex, which struck a rock and sent debris flying into Zheng Guoping’s face.

• Little Treasure Hunting Ghost appeared laughing at Zheng Baolong, and Qiao Sang recalled it into her Pet Beast Codex as everyone realized she had two pet beasts.
• Zheng Guoping ordered Xu Yajie to run twenty laps, then continued testing the students’ pet beasts.
• Qiao Sang recognized that Great Flame Sparrow and Power Head Duck were being tested on compressing attacks to increase their range.
• Qiao Sang called Ya Bao a Flame Listening Dog and had it demonstrate a Proficient Flame Vortex, surprising Wang Yao with their silent coordination.
• Qiao Sang asked Ya Bao to narrow its Flame Vortex, and its attack shattered a rock thirteen meters away, sending a fragment into Zheng Guoping’s face.

Qiao Sang’s Ya Bao succeeded in narrowing his Flame Vortex, drawing a challenge from Wang Yao’s Great Flame Sparrow, and Qiao Sang later learned that news about the Fire Fang Dog’s new form had been published. After bathing Ya Bao and arriving at a dinner with Liu Yao, she asked why the Grade Two School Team trained only one beast each.

• Ya Bao successfully compressed his Flame Vortex, and the Great Flame Sparrow challenged him with a fiery stare.
• After a tiring day of Grade Two training, Qiao Sang summoned the hungry Little Treasure Hunting Ghost and read the Grade One School Team chat discussing news about the Fire Fang Dog’s new form.
• Qiao Sang confirmed that the news described her Fire Fang Dog and suspected Liu Yao had helped publicize it to gain support for a research project.
• When Xian Teacher arrived to take them to meet visitors, Qiao Sang persuaded Ya Bao to bathe by promising he could see his new appearance in a mirror.
• At Yuehe Hotel, Qiao Sang met Liu Yao and asked why the Grade Two School Team members had trained only one of their two beasts.

Qiao Sang learned why pet beasts struggled to maintain multiple skills and rented a cheap house near Saint Water High School. That night, she began testing whether Ya Bao could use Psychic Power through its clone while its real body attacked.

• Liu Yao explained that Combination Skills were difficult for one pet beast to perform simultaneously and that instinctive uses of Psychic Power left room for other actions.
• Qiao Sang met Xiao Wang and rented the Chang'an Road house for 5,000 Alliance Coin a month after comparing it with the more expensive Shi Tuo Road house.
• Qiao Sang let Ya Bao admire its reflection in the courtyard pond before interrupting it to try a training idea.
• Qiao Sang had Ya Bao create a clone and use Psychic Power to suspend a stone, then told its real body to spray sparks at it.

Qiao Sang trained Ya Bao to use different skills through its original body and clone, then moved into her off-campus home with her pet beasts. The chapter ended when she noticed water on the floor and asked Ya Bao if it had played with water.

• Qiao Sang discovered Ya Bao could not manage Psychic Power and a different skill at the same time because controlling both taxed its Mental Strength.
• After the failed training, Qiao Sang persuaded Ya Bao to go to bed, while unseen eyes opened beneath the pool after they left.
• Qiao Sang packed to move off campus, and Jin Feifan clarified that she had once wanted to move because she feared Qiao Sang's pet beasts.
• Little Ball Cattail gave Little Treasure Hunting Ghost its dandelion, and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost accepted it without asking for milk.
• At her new home, Ya Bao searched for a mirror, then watched a battle on TV while Qiao Sang unpacked.
• Qiao Sang noticed water beneath her feet and asked Ya Bao if it had played with water.

Qiao Sang tested whether Ya Bao could control his clones independently from his main body, hoping to train him to act separately while they were apart. As Ya Bao practiced controlling fifteen clones from the courtyard, Little Treasure Hunting Ghost sensed an enticing scent and headed toward an unidentified beast watching the training in anger.

• After seeing a perfume advertisement featuring a remotely acting clone, Qiao Sang wondered whether Ya Bao could train his clones at home while his main body went to school.
• Qiao Sang told Ya Bao to send all his clones to practice Spark by the courtyard pool while his main body stayed inside and watched TV.
• Ya Bao struggled to focus on the television while controlling his fifteen clones, then grew determined when Qiao Sang explained the exercise would develop his ability to act independently from them.
• Little Treasure Hunting Ghost caught a pleasant scent and floated toward the courtyard, where Qiao Sang learned something there smelled good to him.
• An unidentified pet beast watched the fifteen Flame Listening Dogs practice Spark and glared angrily as bubbles rose from its nostrils.

Qiao Sang planned training for Little Treasure Hunting Ghost after noticing its improved sense of smell and natural growth. The next morning, Ya Bao woke up soaked, used Flame Body to dry itself, and was asked to investigate how the water got onto it with Tactile Power.

• Little Treasure Hunting Ghost followed a scent into the courtyard, but the unidentified pet beast dissolved into a puddle and vanished before Qiao Sang could find it.
• Qiao Sang reviewed the Pet Beast Codex, noting Ya Bao's Spark progress and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost's rapid growth, then chose Hypnosis, Dream Eating, and Psychic Power for its initial training.
• On August 6, Ya Bao woke Qiao Sang with miserable cries after finding itself drenched in water, though Little Treasure Hunting Ghost had not seen what happened.
• Qiao Sang reminded Ya Bao that it could use Flame Body to evaporate the water, and Ya Bao dried itself with flames.
• Qiao Sang asked Ya Bao to use Tactile Power to review where the water had come from.

Qiao Sang watched Ya Bao use Tactile Power to replay his recent past, then tested the range of his Clone on the way to training camp. At Training Ground No. 5, Ya Bao tasted Wang Yao’s expensive Original Fire Paste, and Qiao Sang tried to make him spit it out.

• Ya Bao used Tactile Power to review the past, saw his own miserable reaction to being drenched, and refused to tell Qiao Sang what he had seen.
• Qiao Sang took Ya Bao and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost to school, testing Ya Bao’s Clone range at roughly 242 meters and then about 290 meters with the Fire Condensing Pearl.
• At Training Ground No. 5, Qiao Sang found Xu Yajie and Shi Gaofeng practicing modifications to their pet beasts’ existing skills.
• Wang Yao applied Original Fire Paste to Great Flame Sparrow’s tongue and explained that it helped Fire Type skills improve in proficiency.
• Great Flame Sparrow offered Ya Bao some Original Fire Paste, and Qiao Sang lunged to make him spit it out after learning that a bottle cost around 300,000.

Qiao Sang discovered that strange water incidents in her apartment were likely caused by an Extraordinary Creature and began investigating the landlord's suspiciously cheap rental. The chapter left her suspecting something was wrong with No. 1705 in Tianjing Garden.

• Qiao Sang stopped Ya Bao from swallowing the Great Flame Sparrow's Original Fire Paste, and Wang Yao gave the paste to Ya Bao instead.
• Ya Bao trained Spark while the Great Flame Sparrow practiced Flame Vortex, and Wang Yao questioned how powerful Ya Bao's Spark had become.
• Wang Yao told Qiao Sang that overcoming a pet beast's fears might increase its Mental Strength, and Qiao Sang considered trying it with Ya Bao.
• Shi Gaofeng explained that Zheng Baolong was scolding the Team Combat Team, then was caught by Zheng Baolong when he complained about him.
• Qiao Sang noticed Ya Bao had been inexplicably soaked and connected the incident to the living-room puddle and the apartment's unusually low rent.
• Qiao Sang questioned Xiao Wang about the landlord's reason for lowering the rent, then suspected an Extraordinary Creature was causing the apartment's unnatural phenomena.

Qiao Sang suspected a Water-type Pet Beast had soaked Ya Bao and went with her Pet Beasts to investigate the courtyard pool. After Ya Bao’s powerful Spark Rain revealed a small light-blue Pet Beast nearby, the culprit was finally in sight.

• Qiao Sang noticed the pool was full again and concluded that a Water-type Pet Beast might have soaked Ya Bao.
• Qiao Sang began calling the Patrol Department, but Ya Bao stopped her and insisted on finding and fighting the culprit.
• Qiao Sang agreed to investigate the pool herself, and Ya Bao used Spark to drain much of its water without finding anything.
• Ya Bao unleashed Spark Rain across the courtyard, blasting apart much of the ground.
• Little Treasure Hunting Ghost spotted a light-blue Pet Beast lying on the ground.

Qiao Sang discovered that the unconscious Pet Beast that had soaked Ya Bao was a critically endangered Water Luliana from the distant Ancient Mist Region. She decided to win its trust when it woke up, while Ya Bao recognized it as the culprit and got excited about replacing its old sunglasses.

• Qiao Sang identified the unfamiliar Pet Beast as a Water Luliana, a rare Water-type with extraordinary healing abilities.
• Qiao Sang learned that Water Luliana was critically endangered because it reproduced slowly and had been captured in large numbers.
• Qiao Sang told Little Treasure Hunting Ghost to prepare treats and toys to befriend the unconscious Water Luliana.
• Ya Bao found its old pink sunglasses in Little Treasure Hunting Ghost's Ring, discovered they no longer fit, and cheered up when Qiao Sang promised to buy new ones.
• Ya Bao confirmed that it recognized the Water Luliana as the Pet Beast that had soaked it earlier.

Qiao Sang tried to befriend the Water Luliana after it woke, but it rejected her and nearly fought Fang Fang before Little Treasure Hunting Ghost calmed things down. Water Luliana fled into the courtyard, leaving Little Treasure Hunting Ghost worried that it had failed to earn its promised reward.

• Qiao Sang convinced Fang Fang that Water Luliana had sprayed it because it wanted to play, and told Fang Fang to greet it kindly when it woke.
• Water Luliana woke and sprayed Qiao Sang twice with Water Gun, then Taunted Fang Fang when it became angry.
• Little Treasure Hunting Ghost offered Water Luliana milk and used Psychic Power to retrieve bottles it knocked away, while it kept Fang Fang from attacking.
• Water Luliana stopped preparing to fight and ran toward the courtyard, and Qiao Sang told Little Treasure Hunting Ghost not to chase it.
• Little Treasure Hunting Ghost worried that it would not receive its tenfold supplies because it had failed to give Water Luliana the milk.

Qiao Sang continued Ya Bao’s training while trying to keep him away from Water Luliana, then received a call that her five-million reward had been approved and went to the Hanggang City Public Security Bureau to collect it. There, she discovered that a reporter who had approached her earlier was waiting to interview her about subduing Zhou Xian.

• Qiao Sang had Ya Bao train away from the pool, but the resulting debris contaminated Water Luliana’s water, prompting it to replace the pool’s water overnight.
• The next morning, Qiao Sang stopped Ya Bao from confronting Water Luliana and left early for school, while Ya Bao secretly pushed his clone-control distance farther so it could attack Water Luliana at home.
• Qiao Sang received a call from the Hanggang City Public Security Bureau confirming that her reward had been approved, then requested leave from Vice Principal Liu Yao.
• Qiao Sang headed to the Public Security Bureau with Ya Bao, training him on the way, and declined an interview from a Hanggang Focus Channel reporter at the entrance.
• At the reception room, Qiao Sang found the same reporter waiting to interview her about subduing the A-rank wanted criminal Zhou Xian.

After Qiao Sang was interviewed about capturing an A-class wanted criminal and Ya Bao’s new form, Vice Principal Liu Yao examined the Flame Listening Dog’s unusual hearing. Liu Yao then asked to examine Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, which appeared and tried to copy his examination.

• Director Pan and reporters praised Qiao Sang at the Police Station, where she answered questions about Huangming Mountain and Ya Bao.
• After leaving the Police Station, Qiao Sang summoned Ya Bao, and a Short-Eared Mouse with a press badge photographed him.
• At Saint Water High School, Liu Yao clarified that Qiao Sang could name the Fire Fang Dog’s new form, and she identified it as the Flame Listening Dog.
• Liu Yao used an endoscope to discover that the Flame Listening Dog had inner-ear structures for ultrasonic positioning and could hear frequencies at least twenty times higher than humans.
• Liu Yao asked Qiao Sang to summon Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, which appeared holding the endoscope and tried to examine its own ear.
