Chapter 1150: Chapter 868: Yaobao VS Lubao (Two-in-One)_3

Gangbao’s expression was solemn.

Using the Coagulating Water trait to merge with the rain and leap to a height otherwise unattainable, then deploying the Ice Heaven Domain, it brought Yaobao and the Energy Sphere within its range from the high vantage point. Clever, truly clever... Lubao was indeed thinking strategically... Yaobao had earlier anticipated Lubao’s attack and teleported to the sky to escape the Ice Heaven Domain’s range, but sensing another threat, it teleported again. Unfortunately, Lubao’s current strength clearly surpasses Yaobao by a large margin, so even with teleportation, it remains within the Ice Heaven Domain... This match seems to be concluding... Qiao Sang swiftly analyzed the situation on the field, feeling a mix of emotions.

As these thoughts flickered, a single drop of ice in the air suddenly froze and twisted, and Lubao’s head popped out.

The next second, a giant ice cone appeared out of thin air from the heights, smashing down toward Yaobao.

"Bang!"

Yaobao’s massive body was instantly smashed into the ground.

The ground shattered, leaving a massive crater.

Countless ice fragments scattered.

"Xun Xun..."

Little Treasure Hunter covered its eyes, finding it hard to watch.

Yaobao... Qiao Sang raised her hand and blew the whistle: "Battle over."

Just as the words fell, a blazing and dazzling flame suddenly shot up from the giant pit.

Following that, Yaobao emerged slowly from the pit, completely engulfed in flames.

The rain poured from the sky, yet the flames seemed never to extinguish.

"Bing’ai..."

Lubao momentarily froze upon seeing Yaobao in such a state.

Yaobao gave Lubao a deep look without saying a word, extinguished the flames on its body, and staggered toward its Beast Tamer’s direction.

...

10:54 PM.

Beast Taming Center, residential area, Room 1103.

"Rain-shielding..."

Two Rain-Shielding Butterflies trembled in the corner of the room.

The battle scene in the afternoon had scared them witless, and the thought of sharing a room with such terrifying beings kept them wide awake at night.

Qiao Sang had just finished her nightly wash, leaning half against the bed. Just as she was about to enter the Beast Taming Codex in her mind, she unexpectedly noticed that Yaobao, who usually fell asleep at this time, still had its eyes wide open on the bed.

It’s a miracle... Qiao Sang was shocked.

Yaobao, who always slept on schedule and couldn’t even be awakened with tongue licking, was still awake at this time!

"Xun Xun..."

Little Treasure Hunter also noticed this and occasionally sneaked glances with a "this is insane" look.

"Why aren’t you asleep yet?" Qiao Sang couldn’t resist asking after holding back for so long.

"Ya Ya."

Yaobao uttered a sound, indicating it was still training.

Training? Qiao Sang was momentarily stunned, and then cautiously asked:

"Do you mean you’re using a doppelganger to train on the field outside?"

"Ya."

Yaobao nodded.

"Xun Xun..."

Little Treasure Hunter showed an enlightened expression.

In the water tank, Lubao opened its eyes to glance at Yaobao before slowly closing them again.

Hearing this, Qiao Sang’s expression was complex, unsure whether to be happy or not.

She felt that Yaobao seemed to have undergone a mental transformation since the afternoon battle with Lubao, becoming much more stable, as if it had matured...

Qiao Sang paused and said, "It’s still best to rest early, as we need to travel in the morning."

"Ya Ya."

Yaobao shook its head, indicating it wasn’t ready to sleep.

Qiao Sang: "..."

"Are you hungry? Should I have Little Treasure Hunter get you something to eat?" asked Qiao Sang.

"Ya!"

Yaobao’s eyes lit up as it nodded, indicating its agreement.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang felt slightly relieved.

"Xun Xun~"

Before its Beast Tamer could say anything, Little Treasure Hunter quickly took off the ring, and brought out the Energy Food that Yaobao liked to eat, placing it in front of it.

"Ya Ya?"

Yaobao picked up a light red tree fruit with its paw and took a bite, then seemed to recall something. It turned to its Beast Tamer and called, indicating if it could watch a competition on the phone that night?

Qiao Sang was once again surprised: "Of course you can."

"Xun Xun..."

Little Treasure Hunter cast a resentful glance at its Beast Tamer.

Back when it wanted to use the phone at night, you didn’t say that...

"I’ll watch it with you tonight." Qiao Sang said softly.

Yaobao must have been agitated by the afternoon fight with Lubao; she had to be there with it...

"Ya Ya..."

Understanding its Beast Tamer’s intent, Yaobao put down the tree fruit it hadn’t finished and nuzzled up against its Beast Tamer.

Qiao Sang immediately felt a wave of tenderness.

...

In the middle of the night, everything was silent.

Inside the room.

Qiao Sang and Yaobao both had reddened eyes, struggling to stay awake, watching the battle competition videos on the phone screen.

"Xun Xun..."

Little Treasure Hunter lay on its side, propping up its head with a paw, while also nibbling on seeds and watching the competition.

"Ya Ya..."

Yaobao’s eyelids were heavy, occasionally nodding off.

Suddenly, a faint blue light enveloped them.

All fatigue vanished.

Both Qiao Sang and Yaobao turned to look at the water tank.

Inside, Lubao appeared to still be asleep, eyes closed.

Qiao Sang and Yaobao exchanged a glance, choosing not to disturb, and continued watching the battle competition on the phone screen.

...

The next day.

"Knock knock knock..."

The door was knocked.

Mikaela whispered: "It’s me."

The door opened, and Qiao Sang greeted while brushing her teeth: "Teacher, you’re up early."

"You seem to have woken up a bit late today." Mikaela said as she glanced around the room, spotting Yaobao still lying asleep on the bed.

"Slept a bit late last night, I’ll be ready soon." Qiao Sang hastened her washing routine in the bathroom.

She quickly finished her washing and stepped out of the bathroom, habitually asking:

"Which city are we heading to next?"

"Yongtian City," Mikaela replied.
