Unserious Beast Tamer

"[Would you like to teach the Pet Beast Skill [★Claw Edge] to your pet beast, Ziyun?]

[Yes] [No]

Xu Ran unhesitatingly clicked [Yes].

The next moment, the pet beast skill column on the panel was empty.

It appears that the skill he acquired can only be taught once.

Xu Ran felt a pang of regret, but not so much.

He turned his head and looked at Ziyun, "How do you feel?"

Ziyun looked back at its Beast Master in bewilderment.

It felt like a lot of experiences that hadn't been there before suddenly appeared in its head, and it inexplicably mastered a new skill.

"Meow?!" (What just happened?!)

"Congratulations, you've learned a new skill." Xu Ran didn't explain. He just smiled and opened Ziyun's detail panel.

[Contract Pet Beast: Ziyun]

Race name: Electric Chasing Cat

Attribute: Thunder Attribute

Growth stage: Transcendent Stage (125/500)

Species Level: Leader Species

Skills:

[★★Electric Spark (Stardust Level)] (1/100)

[★★Electric Arc (Stardust Level)] (1/100)

[★Bite (Stardust Level)] (1/100)

[★Claw Edge (Stardust Level)] (0/100)]

Due to the training just now, Ziyun's physique has increased by two points.

More importantly, a new skill has been added to the skills column.

"Come on, Ziyun. Try out Claw Edge."

"Meow!" (Okay!)

Although Ziyun didn't realize that its sudden mastery of a new skill was related to its Beast Master's cheat, it obediently started to use the new skill.

Its claws, which had been folded in its paws, suddenly spread out, each one flashing with a metallic and sharp cold light.

"Whoosh--"

Ziyun leapt up nimbly and forcefully slashed at the large bone it used earlier to test the power of the skill Bite.

Then Xu Ran was stunned to see that the big bone, which was so hard to cut with a kitchen knife, was instantly cut into several pieces, the cut surfaces were as smooth as mirrors.

"This skill is good." Xu Ran nodded in satisfaction, "Ziyun, you can help with cooking at home in the future."

Ziyun: "???"

You use Claw Edge for that?

"My cooking skills are actually pretty good."

"Meow!" (Deal!)

Ziyun nodded without hesitation.

Xu Ran smiled, "All right, let's continue our business."

It wasn't time to close yet; he had just closed the door earlier so as not to let anyone see the scene of Ziyun's awakening.

An Awakening Stone probably does not exist in reality.

He understood the principle that one has no guilt when holding a valuable gem.

Opening the door, Xu Ran leaned on his cheek, watching the outside of the door without interest.

Ziyun, now a Transcendent Being, lightly jumped onto the counter, her front paws tucked in her chest, idling with Xu Ran.

Although her shape had changed, her lazy attitude hadn't changed a bit.

Beast Mastery High School of Qingzhou City.

This school specifically targets age-appropriate students with Beast Master talents, teaching both ordinary high school knowledge and corresponding Beast Master information.

Su Xiaoxiao walked into the freshman year (6) classroom, where her classmates with whom she had been spending most of the year were seated.

The expressions on their faces were quite tense because every one of them was about to undergo an important assessment.

"Xiaoxiao, did you take my advice and take your Pet Beast for Washing and Protection when you left at midday?" Lin Yue,her deskmate, leaned over and lowered her voice as soon as Su Xiaoxiao sat down.

"Yes." Su Xiaoxiao pursed her powdery cute lips and nodded slightly.

"Phew! Then it's okay." Lin Yue let out a sigh of relief, "Where's your Flame Fox?"

"Just like before." Su Xiaoxiao spread her hands helplessly.

Her Flame Fox has a very aloof personality and doesn't like coming to school with her. After going for Washing and Protection at the Starfire Foster Care Shop, Su Xiaoxiao sent it home. It's probably sleeping off its beauty treatment at home.

Of course, it could be watching a drama show.

"I originally wanted to see the effect of the grooming in advance." Lin Yue regretted, "I'll have to wait until the assessment when you summon it to see."

Saying this, Lin Yue's expression turned more serious, "The Pet Beast Appearance Assessment must not be taken lightly. I heard that each class has a representative that can participate in the Qingzhou City's Youth Beast Master's Pet Beast Beauty Contest. You can get bonus points in the college entrance exam if you win the contest!"

"The Appearance Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of the Pet Beast's personality, skill proficiency, strength, and appearance, of which appearance accounts for a significant proportion."

"Your Flame Fox is a Pet Beast species with very high beauty value, and its strength is also quite good. Maintaining a good state before the assessment, you have a chance to compete for this spot!"

"A Yue, thank you." Su Xiaoxiao felt a warmth in her heart, knowing that her deskmate truly wishes well for her.

Lin Yue smiled, just about to say something, but there came some unfriendly voices from not far away.

"Is that so? I don't think Su Xiaoxiao has a chance."

Hearing this voice, both Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yue frowned in unison.

Two girls walked towards them. The girl on the left, who had just spoken, started with contempt, "The Flame Fox is a Pet Beast race with a high beauty value, but there is a difference between Flame Foxes. Someone's Flame Fox... Huh! With so many different colors on its body, what beauty value can it have?"

"And it seems that that someone's Flame Fox doesn't even listen to its Beast Master's commands. Can such a Pet Beast really score points in personality evaluations? Hehe."

Su Xiaoxiao's face turned slightly sour.

A normal Flame Fox has uniformly flamed-red fur, but her Flame Fox seemed to have mutated at birth, resulting in lighter red patches on its body.

Actually, these color variations do not detract from the beauty value of the Flame Fox but rather give it a unique charm. However, Su Xiaoxiao was not sure if the judges would agree.

Moreover, her Flame Fox does have an aloof personality and even ignores her sometimes, which is not considered a positive personality trait for a Pet Beast.

Both of these points might affect her scores in the Appearance Assessment.

The taunting from the others immediately dampened Su Xiaoxiao's good mood.

"Du Ting, what are you talking nonsense about!" Lin Yue did not look pleased, "If Xiaoxiao doesn't have a chance, does that mean you do?"

"Of course, I don't have a chance either." Du Ting shook her head without concern, then hooked her arm around the girl beside her, "An Xun is definitely going to be first in this assessment!"

The girl on the right, tall and slender, lifted her head slightly in pride upon hearing her companion's words, "Su Xiaoxiao, don't even dream about coming first in the Appearance Assessment!"

"Don't even dream about it! Don't even dream about it!"

As the girl's voice fell, a parakeet with rainbow-like, dazzling feathers landed on her shoulder, with oriented feathers clearly distinguishable as it spread its wings.

Transcendent Race, Colorful Cloud Parrot.

In terms of beauty value, it was in no way inferior to the Flame Fox.

Su Xiaoxiao frowned heavily.

This girl named Duan Anxun was her biggest competitor in the Appearance Assessment.

On top of that, the two already had significant disagreement.

From the very first day of their freshman year, disagreement emerged over trivial issues between Duan Anxun and Su Xiaoxiao. Since then, An Xun has always been causing trouble for her, which is very annoying.

Trouble is coming indeed.
