The beast starts from zero

Smart hotel.

Top floor S-class room.

Qiao Sang and Ya Bao appeared out of thin air.

"You're back." Michaela, who was sitting on the sofa, immediately stood up upon seeing him, went towards the kitchen, opened the refrigerator door, and said in a good mood:
"I went to buy some food, so you can eat some when you come back."

As he spoke, he took a pile of food out of the refrigerator.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang quickly stepped forward to help take some of the food and put it on the dining table.

“No need, I can do it myself.” Michaela didn’t ask for help. She filled her hands with food, then looked at the refrigerator and used her telekinesis to control the rest of the food to be placed on the dining table, as if she was afraid that Josan would get tired.

Qiao Sang has gradually gotten used to it.

Since becoming an A-level professional beast tamer and winning the Master Challenge, and later becoming an S-level beast tamer, his teacher has taken increasingly better care of his food, clothing, and shelter, just like Xia Bao had been treated.

You should know that if it were in the past, when Teacher Michaela came to the Mechanical Kingdom Hotel, his first consideration would definitely be a place with more greenery and private training facilities, rather than a local specialty hotel.

“Come and eat,” Michaela said with a smile.

The smell of the food made Ya Bao and the others' eyes light up, and they quickly came over and happily started eating.

"Teacher, I have something to tell you." Qiao Sang came to the dining table, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

"What is it?" Michaela asked, sitting down.

The phone on the table vibrated as soon as he finished speaking.

Michaela picked up her phone, glanced at it, then hung up and said, "Go ahead."

"It seems that word has already spread that I became an S-rank Beastmaster and formed a contract with Xia Bao. Many people on Blue Star have called to ask me about it," Qiao Sang said.

Michaela laughed, showing no surprise, and said:

“I know, not just you, but many other people have called me about this too.”

Although the dean and the old guys in the Imperial Class already knew, they weren't the type to talk too much and wouldn't go out of their way to tell others. So, many people who knew her were only finding out now and were calling to confirm.

Qiao Sang sighed, "It's because Xiao Xunbao let it slip during his live stream."

"Looking around~"

The little treasure, who was engrossed in eating its energy meal, immediately looked up, its expression clearly showing smug satisfaction, but then sighed and let out a cry, indicating that it was all because it had too many fans.

Qingbao rolled her eyes.

"Everyone will find out about this sooner or later. It's not a bad thing that the whole interstellar world knows that a genius beast tamer who is 18 years old and has a contract with Sharara has appeared sooner," Michaela laughed.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang couldn't help but laugh.

Michaela took a sip of milk and said, "By the way, Coach Tao from the Blue Star Dragon Kingdom's National Defense Bureau contacted me, saying he wants you to go back and train as soon as possible to participate in various competitions and qualify for the Interstellar Cup. What do you think?"

Qiao Sang pondered for a moment, then said:

"I don't want to go back yet. I want to stay on Tianyuan Star for a while longer. Besides, I haven't even become a formal S-class professional beast tamer yet."

I accepted the mission to become an S-rank Beastmaster on Tianyuan Star, and the alien pet in the mission is also located on Tianyuan Star. If I leave here and go to Blue Star, it will be the same as giving up the mission.

“I knew that’s what you were thinking,” Michaela said with a smile. “That’s why I turned her down.”

"I knew you understood me," Qiao Sang said, offering flattery at the opportune moment.

“Who told me to be your mentor for so long?” Michaela’s smile widened uncontrollably.

During their conversation, Penjami, standing to the side, looked at its Beastmaster with a hesitant expression. However, seeing that its Beastmaster wasn't looking at it, it sighed inwardly, its eyes glowing blue, and disappeared from the spot.

Seeing that Penjami had disappeared, Michaela suddenly remembered something and changed the subject, saying, "While you were training, I went to talk to Wuyuanwang."

Hearing this, Qiao Sang was somewhat surprised, thinking to herself, "Wishful thinking usually doesn't like you, yet it's willing to chat with you."
In a flash of thought, Michaela continued, "I wanted it to help me contact the Inspector, and it agreed."

Qiao Sang blurted out instinctively, "It actually agreed?"

After saying that, she realized the ambiguity in her words and quickly added, "What I meant was, didn't Wuyuan say before that it didn't know the colleague it contacted when it first got in touch with Jianyin Suosuo? Could it be that it was trying to find him through the music egg?"

“It doesn’t know them, but it said it could help ask. They both work in the Beast Taming Alliance, so some things are easy to find out,” Michaela said.

This seems more reliable than finding a polymer solution first. Qiao Sang thought to herself, then finally couldn't help but ask:
"How exactly did you talk to it to get it to help you find it?"

Why else could it be? It's because it saw your value, thought you had great potential, and believed you could lead it to the pinnacle of its profession and gain more power in the Beast Taming Alliance. Michaela replied inwardly, while outwardly opening his mouth, preparing to say something like "After all, I am its Beast Tamer" as a prelude.

But before she could speak, Penjami appeared out of thin air with no wish.

Michaela instantly swallowed back the words he was about to say.

"Meimei, so you were just taking Wuyuanwang to see me." Qiao Sang turned to look at the two figures that had appeared out of nowhere, somewhat surprised.

After all, Teacher Michaela just said that Wuyu was willing to help contact the Inspector Sosso. Now that Meimei has brought Wuyu here, could it be that things have progressed?

Just then, she suddenly noticed that Wu Yuanwang was looking at her with shining eyes, a look that was quite similar to the look that Teacher Michaela had given Xia Bao.

It seems that Wu Yuanxiang also saw the news about the Little Treasure Hunt slices, Qiao Sangxin thought to herself.

"Spray spray."

Penjami nodded.

“I forgot to tell you,” Michaela laughed, “Wishless will be moving in with us soon.”

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"

She was genuinely pleasantly surprised. On one hand, she was happy that the relationship between Teacher Michaela and Wuyou seemed to have eased. On the other hand, living under the same roof meant she would be able to know about any news about Zhenyin Suo Suo immediately. Moreover, Xia Bao would need it to quickly increase his poison-type energy in battle form.

"Nothing."

Wu Yuan nodded, his voice slightly strained.

Penjami glanced at it.

For some reason, it seemed to see the shadows of the Dragon King and Jiu Bugu in Wuyuan.

“That’s great,” Qiao Sang said.

"Nothing."

"Nothing."

When it finally remembered its business, it sighed and barked twice with a slightly worried expression, indicating that it had found the colleague who had initially contacted the guide, but that colleague said that the guide hadn't helped it, hadn't left any contact information, and had even stopped being a fan of the music egg after it contacted the other party.

Qiao Sang: "."

Michaela: "."

"Looking around~"

Xiao Xunbao, a popular blogger with nearly 100 million followers, is well-versed in the fan community. After swallowing his energy meal, he exclaimed, indicating that he doesn't seem to be a true fan.

"It seems the only way to find it is through polymer hydrolysis," Jossan said.

"Nothing." Wuyuan showed a serious expression and called out, indicating that it would go find the polyhydric liquid right away.

After saying that, he looked at Penjami and called out again:
"Nothing."

Take me to the Machinery Building, not inside the building, just the entrance.

"and many more."

Before Penjami could agree, Qiao Sang called out.

Wu Yuanwang and Penjiamei looked over.

"Didn't the teacher say he would send an email to Polymer Liquid?" Qiao Sang said, "The email should have already been sent. If Polymer Liquid sees the email, it will at least give us face and reply, right?"

Furthermore, you also said that mechanical-type pets have no sense of human relationships. If they don't even pay attention to Teacher Michaela, would they pay attention to you?

Of course, she didn't say the second half of the sentence.

As Josan spoke, he looked at Professor Michaela and asked with his eyes whether the email had been sent.

Michaela: "."

Mikaela said without changing his expression, "I have already sent the email, but Polymer Liquid has not replied yet. It has to manage the network security of the entire Mechanical Kingdom, so it certainly doesn't have the time to reply immediately."

Qiao Sang was taken aback: "Didn't you say before that it's a mechanical pet that manages network security, and that we'd definitely see it soon?"

Michaela directly threw mud at Polymer Liquid, saying, "I thought its efficiency would be as high as Guilunsel's, but now that I think about it, not every mechanical-type pet has the same efficiency as Guilunsel."

Penjami and Kyuubuku stood to the side, speechless.

“Guilun Sel is indeed the most efficient mechanical-type pet I’ve ever encountered.” Qiao Sang nodded slightly in agreement.

Michaela suddenly remembered that Guilunsel had tried to poach her, and changed the subject, saying, "They're only good at getting things done, but unfortunately, they're completely useless in combat."

Qiao Sang said nonchalantly, "Everyone has their own expertise. It's a pet beast that specializes in gathering information, so it doesn't matter if its combat ability is a little weak."

"Nothing."

Just as Michaela was about to say something more, Wu Yuan called out again, bringing the topic back to the main point.

I don't know when I'll see the email, I'll go look for it.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Qiao Sang said sincerely.

"Nothing."

Wu Yuan smiled and called out, indicating that it was no trouble for him.

After saying that, he looked at Penjami.

Penjami instantly understood what it meant, her eyes glowed blue, and soon after, she disappeared from the spot without a trace of desire.

While munching on fried chicken, Qiao Sang asked:

"Teacher, do you have any pictures of the 'Jianyin Suoshu'? I couldn't find it online. I searched directly on the pet identification device, but it only showed information, not pictures. I'm thinking of posting a bounty at the Beast Taming Center to ask everyone to help me find it. If it doesn't work with Duojuye La, there are still other ways. If we know what the 'Jianyin Suoshu' looks like, it will be easier for everyone to find it."

She did find the answer online as to why the sambar form wasn't showing up on the pet identification device.

There is currently only one Jianyin Suo Suo on Tianyuan Star. Originally, the pet identification device had information about it, including pictures. However, after its tamer passed away, Jianyin Suo Suo used its own abilities to erase its information from the Beast Taming Alliance.

Later, the staff who were in charge of managing the data discovered this and repaired it. However, the data retriever then entered the network and deleted its own data.

After this happened three times, the Beast Taming Alliance sent someone to talk to it, but the content of the conversation is unknown. After that, the data was available, but the relevant pictures were missing, and the Beast Taming Alliance stopped making repairs.

Even if I don't give her face, there's probably nothing I can do if I don't want to go. Michaela nodded slightly.
"That's fine, but we'll have to wait until Meimei comes back before we can talk about it."

"Why?" Josang asked.

“The books about the *Salvia truncata* are with Mimi,” Michaela said.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Penjami appeared out of thin air.

"Meimei, bring out the books related to mechanical pets from Tianyuan Star," Michaela said without wasting any time.

"Spray spray."

Penjami cried out, her eyes glowing blue.

As far as the eye could see, black cracks suddenly appeared in the air.

The crack slowly widened, revealing a black hole resembling an abyss.

Before long, under Penjamei's control, more than a dozen books emerged and were placed on the dining table.

The black hole then closed up as if it had never existed.

As Michaela picked up the top book and flipped through it, he said, "These are all the books about mechanical-type pets on Tianyuan Star. However, most of them are from decades ago, or even a hundred years ago. There is no information on new mechanical-type pets, but there is a record of Jianyin Suosuo. I remember it, but you will need to look through it again. I don't remember which book it was."

Qiao Sang quickly finished the fried chicken in her hand, wiped her hands with a tissue, picked up a book, and began flipping through it rapidly, remarking with admiration:
"A book from a hundred years ago, this can be considered an antique."

After saying that, she immediately realized that her teacher was also an "old-fashioned" person, so she quickly shut up, secretly glanced at the other person, and saw that Teacher Mikaela did not react to her words. She breathed a sigh of relief and began to seriously flip through the pages.

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure, imitating its master beast tamer, wiped its hands and mouth with a tissue, floated over to a pile of books, picked one up, and started flipping through it.

After finishing her energy meal, Xia Bao floated over to the books, picked one up, and started flipping through it.

"Xiaxia."

However, its eyes quickly turned swirling, and it silently put the book back.

About a minute later, Little Treasure Hunter suddenly shouted excitedly:
"Search!"

It's been found!

"Where?" Qiao Sang quickly put down her book and looked over.

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure Hunt placed the book on the table and pointed to it.

Qiao Sang looked down and saw a spherical pet, mostly white, with silver eyes all over its body.

Michael leaned closer and looked over, saying:
"That's right, this is the *Haloxylon ammodendron*."

"These eyes seem familiar," Qiao Sang mused thoughtfully.

"Qingqing?"

Just then, Qingbao, who had appeared next to the books at some point, called out, indicating that this was the pet that had just appeared in Xiao Xunbao's phone.
Qiao Sang: "!!!"

Little Treasure Hunter: "!!!"

P.S.: I checked the comments, and the book's publication probably won't be that quick. I'm just writing this special edition and collecting feedback first. However, it's definitely going to be released this year. The publisher will release two volumes initially, and it seems the content will only cover up to Lu Bao's part. The illustrations of Ya Bao and the others will be based on the content, showing their corresponding forms. The two volumes only contain illustrations of Ya Bao, Little Treasure Hunter, and Lu Bao's initial forms, as well as Ya Bao's intermediate form. This book is just too long; it's unlikely to be completed. Collecting the complete illustrations seems impossible. (End of Chapter)
