Chapter 74: A Big Client

An hour later.

Unable to bear the hunger any longer, it jumped onto the bed and used its mouth to pull the blanket aside.

"Yaya!"

The Fire Fang tried to wake its tamer.

"Let me sleep a bit more," Qiao Sang mumbled, turning over.

The Fire Fang hesitated upon hearing this, then used its mouth to pull the blanket back over.

Forty minutes later.

The Fire Fang jumped onto the bed again and pulled the blanket aside.

"Ya!"

"Yaya!"

"Let me sleep a bit more, just one... Ah!"

...

At the dining table, the Fire Fang finished the last bite of the energy meal, patting its belly contentedly with its paw.

Since the holiday began, Qiao Sang had learned to make two different flavors of energy meals from her mother.

They were the simplest to prepare.

As long as the proportions of the ingredients were correct, cutting them up, mixing them, and adding a bit of energy gel was all it took.

It was somewhat similar to making a salad.

Every time Qiao Sang made the meals, the Fire Fang would eat half of them as a favor.

This time, it finished the entire meal, clearly having been very hungry.

"Yabao, a girl's face is important. Don't jump on it randomly, okay?" Qiao Sang said earnestly.

The Fire Fang tilted its head, looking at her with wet, blinking eyes.

"Ya?"

Qiao Sang understood its meaning and explained, "Yabao is your name, which I gave you yesterday. Did you forget?"

"Ya."

The Fire Fang remembered and responded cheerfully.

Qiao Sang still felt a bit scared thinking about the feeling of being pressed on the face this morning.

But seeing how obedient the Fire Fang was, she comforted herself.

It was fortunate that the contracted pet was a Fire Fang, with a soft body.

If it had been a Rock Stone, she would have been disfigured...

...

9:45 AM.

In a shaded area downstairs in Qingcheng Jia Yuan residential complex.

"First, use Shadow Clone, then have all the clones use Fire Fang," Qiao Sang said.

She had thought about it for a long time yesterday and concluded that the problem might lie with the Shadow Clones.

All the data had a pattern.

First, the Fire Fang's level increasing by 30 points in a day wasn't an issue.

This could be seen from the fact that the Fire Fang's level increased when it ate Red Mushrooms in the past.

In a normal training environment, the Fire Fang could also grow.

Later, even without eating Red Mushrooms, the Fire Fang's level would increase by 1 or 2 points each day.

Given this,

The Fire Fang had a fierce battle with the Scale Absorber yesterday and activated its ability for the first time.

It wasn't strange that the battle contributed to its growth.

However, the other skill data, such as Tackle, Fire Fang, and Flame Whirl, were different from before.

The difference was that the Fire Fang's Shadow Clones used these skills yesterday.

If her guess was correct,

It meant that as long as the Shadow Clones used the skills, the points gained would be the same as if the main body had used them, once the clones disappeared.

During the previous matches, the Fire Fang's Shadow Clones had used skills, but she hadn't checked the data in the Beast Codex immediately after the matches. Instead, she checked it at night before going to bed after the Fire Fang finished training.

This made her think that all the data changes were due to training.

The Fire Fang nodded and immediately followed the instructions.

A total of seven Shadow Clones, plus the main body, all released Fire Fang.

Qiao Sang entered the Beast Codex.

[Fire Fang (653/2000)]

Although she had guessed that her idea was correct, she still excitedly shouted when she saw the number change from 645 to 653.

A 4-5 year old boy who had come to see the Fire Fang was startled and ran crying to his mother.

The boy's mother was sitting on a long bench in the residential complex, watching from a distance and thinking the child had been scared by the Fire Fang.

"You see, I told you that fire-type pets are scary. Don't run over to look at them randomly in the future."

The Fire Fang twitched its nose, feeling a bit itchy.

...

2:45 PM.

Qiao Sang took the subway with the Fire Fang to the Hanggang Pet Beast Base.

In Hanggang City, there were dedicated pet beast breeding bases in each district, and there were also many individual sellers of pet beast eggs.

However, the most popular and best-selling was the Hanggang Pet Beast Base.

The pet beast egg exchange voucher from the Baxin Tournament also belonged to the Hanggang Pet Beast Base.

The last time she came, it was early, and she happened to arrive just as the base opened, with few people around.

But this time, Qiao Sang immediately felt a difference as soon as she entered.

The reception hall wasn't particularly crowded, but people were gathered in small groups, chatting.

Qiao Sang looked around.

In each group, there was a staff member in professional attire attending to them.

Just as she was about to go to the service area to ask, a woman in her twenties, dressed professionally, walked over.

"Hello, do you have a reservation?"

The staff member smiled warmly, not treating Qiao Sang like a child at all.

To work at the largest pet beast base in Hanggang City, one had to have good judgment.

It wasn't about treating people differently, but having the ability to read people.

The girl in front of her was young and dressed simply, but she was holding a Fire Fang and had a calm demeanor, clearly not an ordinary child.

While it was rare for someone to visit the base alone, the girl already had a Fire Fang, so it was unlikely she was looking to contract a second pet at her age.

She was either waiting for someone or had a specific pet in mind and wanted to come early to make a reservation.

The staff member thought it was the latter.

"No, I want to buy a pet beast egg," Qiao Sang replied.

The staff member's spirits lifted.

Not just a potential customer, but a direct buyer.

"A big customer," the staff member thought.

"Have you chosen a specific pet beast egg?" the staff member asked.

"Yes, I want to see the Sakura Cotton first," Qiao Sang said.

Not just a potential customer, but a big customer!

If she really bought it, this month's performance target would be met early.

Just as the staff member was excitedly about to lead Qiao Sang to the base, someone called her name from behind.

The staff member remembered that she still had a previous customer to attend to...

She had taken the opportunity to greet this girl while the previous customer was in the restroom.

But she couldn't just let the opportunity slip away.

The staff member quickly responded.

She made a hand sign and summoned a Green Joy Butterfly, saying, "Miss, let it accompany you to tour the base while I finish up here."

There was a mutual感应 between the tamer and the pet beast.

As the brain domain developed, the range of this感应 could also increase.

Qiao Sang had no objections.

She had nothing else to do, so touring the base was a good idea.

"Joy~"

The Green Joy Butterfly spun in place.

Under its guidance, Qiao Sang, holding the Fire Fang, entered the passage inside the pet beast base.
