The beast starts from zero

“I’ll check it again,” Sai Rui said, picking up the equipment and checking Xia Bao once more.

After about three minutes, he put down the device and said, "In its battle form, Sharara has Grass, Psychic, Poison and Water types. Grass type energy accounts for 82%, Psychic type 8%, Poison type 7%, and Water type 3%."

82% Grass-type energy. Jossan's heart sank.

An expert who specializes in the study of pet energy and skills once published a paper stating that a pet's main attribute energy must account for more than 95% to have a chance of learning advanced skills at higher levels in the future.

With only 82% of the main attributes being primary, the energy percentage is far too low.
In a flash of thought, Michaela asked, "What about Shabao's normal form?"

“In its normal form, no poison or water energy was detected in Sharara,” Serai replied.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What are the energy percentages in the normal form?"

In its normal form, there are only two types of energy, which are easy to distinguish. Seri doesn't need to turn Shabao back into its normal form to answer this:
"Grass-type energy is 99%, and Psychic-type energy is 1%."

It seems my worries were unnecessary. Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief, and then voiced her earlier guess:

"With each evolution, Xia Bao gains an additional attribute in battle form. Will it gain an additional attribute with each future evolution?"

“I don’t know about that,” Serai laughed. “No breeder has ever had the honor of examining Sharara before.”

This means there is absolutely no information available about Xia Lala's physical attributes.

Just as Qiao Sang was about to ask something else, Xia Bao suddenly called out:
"Xia Xia."

Each time it evolves, it will indeed gain an additional attribute in its battle form.

"Search."

Little Treasure Hunter looked on with envy.

Each evolution grants one more attribute.
In its mind, it unconsciously imagined itself breathing fire like Brother Toothpick, radiating cold air like Lu Bao, freezing everything around it, and then, like Steel Bao, its arms shooting out like sharp blades to attack its opponent.
"Search."

Little Treasure Hunter imagined the scene, and his expression became even more envious.

Qiao Sang looked at Xia Bao and subconsciously asked, "How did you know?"

After asking, she understood what was going on and asked again, "Did you inherit more of this kind of content from your memories?"

"Xia Xia."

Xia Bao nodded.

"What is Xia Bao saying?" Michaela asked, not understanding.

Serai looked over, but he couldn't understand either.

"It said that with each subsequent evolution, its battle form will gain an additional attribute," Qiao Sang said.

She didn't seem particularly happy about it.

Despite having many attributes and learning many types of skills, the new skills awakened with each evolution are scattered, with skills of one attribute awakening and skills of another attribute awakening. In this case, it is difficult to awaken a particularly powerful skill.

Speaking of which, since Xia Bao cannot use poison-type skills in its normal form, will its awakened skills after evolution be divided into two parts?

One part consists of skills in normal form, and the other part consists of skills in combat form?
Qiao Sang recalled the unique nature of Xia Bao's Beast Taming Manual, and a thought struck her.

If Xia Bao's normal form and battle form can awaken different skills, wouldn't it have two or three more skills than other pets with each evolution?
Thinking of this, Qiao Sang wished she could immediately enter the Beast Taming Manual to check it out.

Seri exclaimed, "It truly lives up to its reputation as a legendary mythical beast. With each evolution, it gains an additional attribute. Apart from mechanical-type pets, I have never seen a pet with so many attributes."

"Xia Xia."

Xia Bao became embarrassed by the praise.

Michaela frowned slightly, deep in thought, and said:
"Having too many attributes in a single pet is not necessarily a good thing for a professional beast tamer."

Isn't this a good thing? Xia Bao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at his beast tamer.

I originally thought the same as you, but if Xia Bao could awaken different skills in different forms, that would be an absolutely fantastic thing, Qiao Sang said:

"Xia Bao's combat form skills cannot be used in normal form. I think Xia Bao may be able to awaken different skills in both forms."

"Experts have already studied this," Serai said. "After evolving, the skills awakened by multi-form pets are no different from those of ordinary pets. However, some skills are sealed in the normal form and can only be unlocked in the battle form."

"There are also some multi-form pets that can awaken different skills in their normal form and special form, and the number of awakened skills will far exceed that of other pets."

He paused, then said with certainty:

"Xialala is definitely the latter."

"We'll have to check the Beast Taming Manual to find out," Qiao Sang nodded in agreement.
"I feel so too."

"Xiaxia."

Xia Bao understood that it was being praised and became embarrassed again.

"For professional beast tamers, quality is more important than quantity of skills," Michaela said in a deep voice. "In Xia Bao's battle form, poison and water skills make up a very small percentage. Even if she awakens far more skills than other pets, the levels of these skills..."

"Nothing."

Before he could finish speaking, Wu Yuanwang called out impatiently, indicating that Xia Lala was a mythical beast, and therefore different from other pets that could change forms.

Michaela frowned.

Her worries were not unfounded.

Although Xia Lala is a mythical beast, its main ability is to revive all things. She has never heard of it being good at fighting before. She needs to make Qiao Sang understand as soon as possible that if Xia Bao's awakened skills are scattered and of low level, then it must be made to learn some skills instead of practicing these awakened skills.

Despite the fact that no one wanted to interrupt her, Michaela opened her mouth, still wanting to continue what she hadn't finished saying.

But just then, Penjami's eyes glowed blue, and an invisible force controlled Michaela's head to look in the direction of Shabao.

"Xiaxia."

Xia Bao's head was drooping, and the flower bud on her neck seemed to have withered, making her look sad.

Michaela: "!!!"

Michaela suddenly realized that it was her words that had caused Xia Bao to become like this, and quickly changed the subject, echoing Wu Yuanwang's words:
“You’re right, Xia Bao’s situation is definitely different from other multi-form pets!”

Wu Yuanxiang glanced at his beast tamer with considerable surprise.

"Xia Xia."

Xia Bao raised her head, and the flower bud on her neck swayed, as if it had come back to life.

“I have a pretty good understanding of Sharara’s situation. As for the energy pills, I can finish making them within a week,” Seri said. “As before, the energy pills will be made into two types: one for consumption in normal form and one for consumption in battle form.”

"Xiaxia." Upon hearing this, Xia Bao showed a pained expression.

Qiao Sang remembered another important matter and asked:
"One of the toxins in the body without desire."

Seri interrupted, "Who is 'No Wishes'?"

"Nothing."

Wu Yuan called out. It was me.

Seree looked over.

“It’s the Void Lord of No Wish.” Qiao Sang continued, “One of the toxins inside the Void Lord of No Wish is said to be able to rapidly increase the energy of poison-type pets. I want to know, given the huge level difference, is it okay for Xia Bao to absorb this toxin while standing next to it? How long should she absorb it each day?”

After a moment's thought, Serui replied seriously:

"There is indeed a toxin in Wuyuan Void that can rapidly increase the energy of pets, but that increases the energy of poison-type pets. Shala's main attribute is grass-type. Theoretically speaking, it can absorb this toxin in battle form by circulating poison-type energy to increase its energy."

"But this increases poison energy. If she continues to absorb it for a long time, the proportion of poison energy in Sharara's body will increase rapidly in battle form, which will not be good for her future growth."

"Therefore, I do not recommend this kind of absorption."

Indeed, Xia Bao's main attribute is Grass, and it will gain an additional secondary attribute with each evolution. In its battle form, the main attribute's energy percentage is already less than 90%, and if the Poison attribute's energy increases further, the Grass attribute's energy percentage will be even lower. As Qiao Sang thought this, he glanced in the direction of Wu Yuanwang.

Without desire, the body becomes stiff.

What do you mean?
No longer needing its own toxins?
Does that mean it has no reason to stay?
Qiao Sang said, "I understand."

Serui wanted to say something more.

Michaela said, "Go back and make the energy pills as soon as possible. If you need any materials, contact me. Once they're made, you don't need to mail them. We'll be moving between different cities recently, and I'll have Meimei pick them up directly."

Although Serai wanted to stay longer, since his senior had said so, he nodded and said:

"it is good."

“Meimei, see him off,” Michaela said.

Upon hearing this, a thought flashed through Qiao Sang's mind: You were able to have Mei Mei pick you up instead of going back by yourself, all thanks to Teacher Jacqueline.
In the blink of an eye, Penjami's eyes glowed blue, and she disappeared from the spot with Serai.

Feeling somewhat downcast, Wuxiang turned and went back to his room.

A short while later, he came out with his luggage and walked towards the door.

Michaela paused, then asked, "What's wrong?"

Ignoring him, Wu Wang continued walking towards the door.

Qiao Sang shouted:

"No wish."

There was no desire to stop and turn around.

Michaela: "."

"What's wrong?" Qiao Sang asked.

"Nothing."

Wuyuan sighed and called out, indicating that it felt there was nowhere else to go and that it should go back to its room.

Originally, it could have helped find the Detector Shuttle, but the Detector Shuttle came to it on its own. No problem, it could have stayed to help Sharara absorb poison energy faster, but it wasn't needed in the end.

It could no longer think of a reason for itself to stay and live there.

Qiao Sang gestured with her head towards the room Wu Wangyou had come out of earlier, and said, "Isn't this your room?"

Wu Yuanxiang paused for a moment.

Chauss then asked:

"You don't think Xia Bao doesn't need your poison anymore, or that you're no longer useful, so you want to leave, do you?"

The silence, devoid of any desire, can be considered tacit agreement.

Just as I thought. Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and said, "Even if Xia Bao doesn't need to absorb the toxins, I hope you can stay and live with us. We're heading to Xiao Guo tomorrow, so we can travel together."

She paused, then added:

“That’s what Teacher Michaela thinks too.”

Michaela realized what was going on and quickly replied, "Of course that's what I think."

Wu Yuanxiang remained silent for two seconds, then looked at Qiao Sang and called out with some emotion:
"Nothing."

Since you've put it that way, of course I'll stay.

After saying that, his expression turned serious, and he called out again:
"Nothing."

I will help you find that alien pet.

The creature that knew things glanced at it, giving it a "you" look, but quickly composed itself.

Without any desire, he took his luggage and turned back to his room.

Although she ignored Michaela the whole time, she was still inexplicably moved.

She keenly sensed that her relationship with Wuyouyuan was improving. If she had said this before, Wuyouyuan would have rolled his eyes or snorted and said, "I don't care what you think."

But now, it hasn't said anything, and it's even stayed behind.

"Teacher, when are we going to Laughter Kingdom tomorrow?" Qiao Sang asked.

Michaela gathered his thoughts and said:

"Good morning, we'll go over after we have breakfast tomorrow."

After saying that, she suddenly remembered Xia Bao's matter about multiple attributes. She was about to speak, but then she remembered Xia Bao's sad look and swallowed her words.

Never mind, I'll talk to Qiao Sang again next time when Xia Bao isn't around.
"Okay, I'll go pack my things first." Qiao Sang said, and walked towards the room.

Close the door.

Qiao Sang didn't pack her things immediately. Instead, she leaned against the headboard, closed her eyes, and focused her consciousness on the Beast Taming Manual, quickly turning to the page about Xia Bao.
