Beast Taming: Starting From Zero-Chapter 733: Talent in Every Corner

T/n: Sorry about not updating yesterday, we got so busy revising our research that I didn't even notice that I haven't updated yet😭😔

-----

Qiao Sang was speechless for a long time after hearing those words.

If it weren’t for the fact that the man in front of her did indeed resemble one of the nine big names on the stage back then, she might’ve rolled her eyes.

She admitted she had some talent in breeding, plenty of people had said so back then.

As for coordination, to be honest, she could understand why Dean Sri thought highly of her.

After all, Yabao's looks spoke for themselves, and with Yabao's current form, there was only one of his kind in the entire alliance. It definitely gave her a noticeable edge in coordination contests.

But mechanical talent…

With all due respect, she didn’t even know the most basic theoretical knowledge. Claiming she had mechanical talent felt like an outright lie.

Anyway, she didn’t even have a mechanical-type beast yet. Whether she had the talent or not couldn’t be seen on the surface.

Gao Fuqi also realized the issue and cleared his throat before continuing in his low, hoarse voice: “I’m not just saying that for no reason.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a round beast about 30 centimeters tall, its body exuding a cold black metallic sheen, waddled out from behind him.

Gao Fuqi introduced it: “This is a Proxy Beast. It can sense a human’s emotions, thoughts, physical condition, and the development level of their brain domain. It combines this data to determine whether someone is suitable for learning mechanical knowledge.”

“If they are, its body turns green.”

“It scanned you from a distance just now and found that you have great potential for learning mechanical knowledge.”

“Proxy, proxy.”

The Proxy Beast quietly glanced at its Beast Master and then nodded.

Gao Fuqi remained expressionless.

He didn’t think he was lying.

The Proxy Beast could sense a person’s emotions, thoughts, physical condition, and brain domain development.

It’s just that it wasn’t originally designed to detect whether someone had talent in mechanical learning.

Once you get into mechanics, it’s like falling into an abyss.

To develop a truly unique mechanical-type beast with a complete evolutionary chain required deep mechanical knowledge and a massive investment of time. There was no way you could determine someone’s talent for this just by scanning.

That said, when someone at a young age had a highly developed brain domain, and their memory and intelligence surpassed others, it was naturally easier for them to learn mechanical knowledge.

But whether they wanted to learn, had interest in it, and could endure long, dull study and experiments was another story.

Just now, the Proxy Beast scanned Qiao Sang from a distance and showed her brain domain at 41%.

Of course, Gao Fuqi didn’t completely trust that data, due to the distance, the Proxy Beast's results could have some margin of error.

But the error wouldn’t exceed 5%. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Which meant, at the very least, Qiao Sang’s brain domain development was around 36%.

At age sixteen, a 36% brain domain, if she studied seriously, how could that not count as mechanical talent?

Just imagining her joining his department, successfully creating and nurturing a mechanical-type beast, and then taking it to compete in the Interstellar Cup made Gao Fuqi’s eyes burn with excitement.

“Is that true…” Qiao Sang hesitated.

If it were anyone else saying this, she definitely wouldn’t believe it.

But the person in front of her was the Dean of the Mechanical Department at Yulianton University, a towering figure in the mechanical field.

Someone like him had no reason to waste time messing with her.

Could it be that she really had extraordinary mechanical talent…? Qiao Sang glanced at the Proxy Beast. While still hesitant, she felt a bit giddy.

Anyone would feel that way after meeting three top-tier figures in different fields in such a short time, and each one recognized her talent.

“You want me to join the Mechanical Deprtment?” Qiao Sang confirmed.

“That’s right.” Gao Fuqi replied with a smile.

“I promise, as long as you study seriously, you’ll absolutely be able to build a beast that truly reflects your heart’s desire.”

Having dealt with two other big shots, Qiao Sang was now used to this. She pulled out her phone while saying: “Let’s exchange contact info. I’ll reach out if I decide to go through with it.”

Why does this feel so half-hearted…? No way, I’m Gao Fuqi! Other than those old geezers, who would dare brush me off? Gao Fuqi also took out his phone.

“Alright.”

The two exchanged contacts. After a bit more small talk, Qiao Sang waved goodbye.

Truth be told, she did want a mechanical-type beast of her own, especially after seeing the one from the Imperial Beast University that delivered her acceptance letter.

But that was something for later. Right now, she hadn’t invested any time or effort into that field on Chaosu Star.

Still, it was worth building a good relationship with Dean Gao Fuqi. If she ever really started making her own mechanical-type beast, it’d be good to have someone like him to talk to.

Why do I seem to have talent in everything… A gentle breeze brushed her face as Qiao Sang walked down the street, thinking back to what had just happened, and couldn’t help smiling foolishly.

As she walked, a thought suddenly occurred to her. Her expression shifted, and she turned to Little Treasure: “We’re going back.”

“Xun xun~”

Little Treasure put down the Black Flower, his eyes glowing blue.

In the next second, him and his Beast Master vanished on the spot.

---

Villa.

“Xun xun~”

The moment Little Treasure got home, he recalled what had happened earlier and happily floated to the bathroom mirror, mimicking Rose Nia’s poses with the Black Flower.

Qiao Sang arrived at the bathroom to see her beast admiring himself in the mirror.

She was silent for two seconds, then quietly backed out and used a different bathroom.

When she came out, she found the vice principal had once again cooked a meal and prepared energy pills like in the morning, but wasn’t around.

Seriously… So busy, yet still made time to come home and cook. Qiao Sang was genuinely touched. After having dinner with Yabao and the others, she returned to her room to think about skill combinations for her beasts’ team moves.

At 7 p.m., the doorbell rang.

Gangbao opened the door.

Qiao Sang heard the commotion and came out of her room.

Standing at the door were Ivina, and a woman with chestnut-brown hair tied up, wearing a blue high-collar long dress, who looked to be in her 30s.

Who is this? Qiao Sang looked at Ivina, her eyes full of questions.

Ivina looked a bit nervous as she introduced her: “This is Dean Virginia from our Department of Pet Journalism.”

The dean of the Pet Journalism Department? Qiao Sang was confused. Why are you bringing your dean to my place?

At that moment, Dean Virginia changed into slippers, walked in with a friendly smile, and said: “Hello. I heard Ivina is teaching you Ghost Ring King’s spatial lockdown. I came to see how well she’s teaching.”

I didn’t expect this… You’re actually close to your dean? Qiao Sang gave Ivina a look.

Ivina’s expression turned painfully awkward.

God knows… from my first year at Yulianton University to 5:45 p.m. this afternoon, I had never even spoken a single word to Dean Virginia…
