Unserious Beast Tamer

Chapter 38: The Reason Why We Can’t Lose 1

Translator: 549690339???????????????????????? —

Interestingly enough, ever since Su Xiaoxiao visited the foster shop to inquire about washing and protection for the pet beast, Flame Fox, and was rejected by Xu Ran again, the Flame Fox had suddenly begun to work hard.

The Flame Fox, who previously refused to cooperate with training and preferred to lie on the sofa, munching on snacks and watching television, now took the initiative to request intense training from Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao was overjoyed and spent the entire weekend training Flame Fox diligently.

At first, she genuinely thought that the Flame Fox had begun to strive for improvement.

It wasn’t until Flame Fox questioned her if it was dirty after its training, that Su Xiaoxiao realised the real intention behind Flame Fox’s actions.

It turned out that Flame Fox was training hard to get dirty quicker so that it could get a washing and protection session sooner!

This behavior was just…

Worth promoting!

Su Xiaoxiao, who had always been troubled by the training issues of her pet beast, felt a whole new ray of hope in her Beast Master career.

She had found the key to get a pet beast to obey!

Before the practical training class, she promised Flame Fox a washing and protection session right after the training, assuring it that Xu Ran would not reject it this time. Flame Fox then readily agreed to perform well during the practical training class.

The stern reprimand from the great demon, this time, surely didn’t stand a chance!

On the other side of the square formation, Duan Anxun and Du Ting next to her were having a small chat.

“An Xun, how did your Colorful Cloud Parrot suddenly change so much!”, exclaimed a envious Du Ting, unable to suppress her admiration.

“I took it to a new shop for washing and protection, the effects were better.” Duan Anxun replied with a smile, “I’ll tell you the location later, but it’s probably a little expensive.”

“Good, good!” Du Ting eagerly agreed, but she suddenly sighed, “It’s a shame. If you had found that shop during the appearance assessment, Su Xiaoxiao wouldn’t have come first!”

Duan Anxun’s smile faded away, her face becoming somewhat unnatural, “Let’s not talk about that anymore.”

“Yeah, let’s not talk about bad things!” Du Ting nodded and switched the topic, “Once the morning exercises are over, it’ll be time for practical training class. Every time, An Xun, you come first. This time too, we can watch Su Xiaoxiao get scolded by the big demon!”

“Not necessarily.” Duan Anxun shook her head, suddenly remembering the perfect coordination between Su and Flame Fox during the appearance evaluation, “Maybe, she won’t be scolded this time.”

“Still, she will not be able to compete with you!” Du Ting confidently added.

“Yes.” Duan Anxun’s eyes shone of confidence.

A practical training class was the most important course in the Beast Mastery High School examination for advancement — an indisputable major subject.

Throughout her freshman year, she had firmly held the first position in the class for this course and this time would be no exception!

Quarter an hour later, the morning exercises ended.

Students from each class orderly left the field, those of class freshman year (6) disbanded into small groups and headed to the special classroom for the practical training class.

Only a moment ago they were filled with laughter, but they all fell silent as they entered the classroom.

That’s because there stood a middle-aged man in the classroom, arms folded across his chest and a stern expression on his face.

The practical training class teacher, Tan Qingsheng.

“It seems like you’re all having fun,” Tan Qingsheng began in a low voice, “I hope you can still laugh like this after the seven tests of practical training.” Ignoring the nervous expressions on their faces, Tan Qingsheng took out a student roll, “The student whose name is called, step up for the test.”

Various testing equipment was set up in the classroom, taking up almost all the space that was not used by the students.

“Su Xiaoxiao, step up!”

As Tan Qingsheng called out her name, he glanced at Su Xiaoxiao standing in the crowd.

He did it on purpose.

In previous practical training classes, Su Xiaoxiao’s performance was not good, but she excelled in all other courses.

So she was always on his priority watch list.

Other subject teachers told him Su Xiaoxiao had had some contrasting behavior in the previous few days, so he wanted to see if her performance in the practical training class would change.

“Present!” Su Xiaoxiao responded, carrying Flame Fox as she stepped forward, and approached the first testing apparatus.

Although she was confident before, she inevitably felt a little nervous at this moment.

“Little Flame, do your best!”

She whispered, as she placed Flame Fox on the testing stage and put on a fully enclosed helmet.

The helmet simulated various battle scenarios for the Beast Master, which the pet beasts were not able to see.

The Beast Master would issue various battle instructions based on the scenarios, and the pet beast had to respond appropriately with movements and attacks without a physical opponent in sight.

This evaluation, known as ‘command power’, tested the accuracy of the pet beast’s execution of the Beast Master’s commands.

“Jump left one meter!”

“Flame Dance, three meters ahead!”

As Su Xiaoxiao shouted each command, the Flame Fox, responding more quickly through mind induction, swiftly executed the actions.

The consistent understanding between the girl and the pet surprised many classmates who were ready to see her fail. It also caught Tan Qingsheng by surprise.

Her performance was a complete contrast to her actions a week ago.

Three minutes later, Su Xiaoxiao removed her helmet and final score for her and the pet – 98.3 points – was displayed on the device.

“Next test!” Tan Qingsheng immediately announced.

A relieved Su Xiaoxiao, scoring so high for the first time, jogged to another testing apparatus for the next testing item.

“This score…” Du Ting, who was watching from afar, showed a look of disbelief on her face, she couldn’t help but turn to look at Duan Anxun.

As the top ranker of practical training class in the class, Duan Anxun’s highest score in ‘command power’ was 97.6.

Duan Anxun, holding her Colorful Cloud Parrot, silently watched Su Xiaoxiao, who continued to perform exceptionally well in the second test.

“Su Xiaoxiao, total score for seven tests, 663.8 points.”

As the seven tests came to an end, Tan Qingsheng announced Su Xiaoxiao’s final result.

Looking at Su Xiaoxiao returning to her place, Tan Qingsheng’s face, for the first time, showed a hint of a smile, “Keep it up.”

“Hiss—” Lin Yue, standing next to Su Xiaoxiao, gasped softly, exclaiming softly, “The big demon actually smiled! Oh my God…”

“Lin Yue! Talking during class, are you? Seems you are very confident, step up!” The stern rebuke from Tan Qingsheng sent a chill down Lin Yue’s spine, her expression drooping.

She walked forward nervously to begin her test.

It was a good thing that washing and protection still had some effects on improving the Green Wind Eagle’s mental state. Although Lin Yue’s final score wasn’t as exaggerated as Su Xiaoxiao, it was significantly better than before, thereby saving her from Tan Qingsheng’s scolding.

After that, several students were called by name to step forward for their tests. Students who made progress received a “keep it up” from Tan Qingsheng, while those who didn’t show progress or regressed, bore the brunt of Tan Qingsheng’s reprimand.

“Duan Anxun, step up for the test!”

Soon, it was Duan Anxun’s turn to be tested.

“An Xun, good luck!” Du Ting waved vigorously from behind her, cheering her on.

“Yes.” Duan Anxun nodded and walked forward, holding the Colorful Cloud Parrot.

She remembered the dinner she had with her mother at the restaurant two nights ago. During the meal, her mother had brought up her consistent rank one in the high school practical training class, while flashing a smile.

She had a reason not to lose..
