Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 786: Oppressive Might

Calm down. An all-nighter is nothing. It’s not like I’ve never pulled one before… Qiao Sang took a deep breath and gritted her teeth.

“Alright.”

Hearing this, Pirite let out a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he felt a little guilty about suggesting this.

Qiao Sang’s situation was special. As a student of the Imperial Class, she should have had a dedicated instructor accompanying her. He himself had never taught students from the Imperial Class before.

It was only because he happened to be on the Chaosu Star that the dean thought of him. Otherwise, with his qualifications, he wouldn’t be qualified to teach the Imperial Class at all.

He didn’t know how those Imperial Class instructors usually taught, but just thinking about it, it was obvious they wouldn’t let those heaven-favored children sleep outside on makeshift beds.

Fortunately, Qiao Sang had no objections…

—

The two of them walked out of the Beast Tamer Center.

Looking at the deserted streets where only a few wild beasts occasionally passed by, Pirite couldn’t help but sigh, “With so many wild beasts in 30th District, it’s no wonder people would rather sleep on the floor inside the Beast Tamer Center at night.”

30Th District had many ordinary people, and most beast tamers only came here for missions.

They usually didn’t stay long, and naturally, the well-protected Beast Tamer Center became their first choice.

Why didn’t you think of this earlier… Qiao Sang didn’t want to continue this rather disheartening topic, so she asked: “Where are we going to look next?”

Most bars would close around two or three in the morning. By now, nearly all of them were closed, and they had already searched almost every well-rated, popular bar tonight.

Leaving bars aside, Qiao Sang had no clue where else to search.

Pirite thought for a moment and said: “How about we go catch some wild beasts with nice singing voices, then gather them together and have them sing one by one?”

That’s actually… a good idea… Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up, her drowsiness completely gone.

Earlier, she felt exhausted not just physically, but also because she was losing hope of finding Adinishi.

She was mentally drained.

But now, she saw a glimmer of hope.

If beautiful music really could attract Adinishi, then once all the best voices of 30th District were gathered in one place, Adinishi would definitely show up there.

“I think this could work.” Qiao Sang gave her approval to the idea.

Then, she suddenly thought of something and asked, “But which beasts have good singing voices?”

Pirite was silent for a while before answering, “Beasts like the Soundbeast and the Stringed Shell Beetle. I’m not too familiar with the species in 30th District. Just catch any beast that sounds nice or sings well when you hear it.”

Got it, so basically, there’s no specific target. We’ll have to walk around, listen, and catch them on the go… The enthusiasm that had just surged in Qiao Sang instantly cooled down by half.

They each mounted their beasts and headed to an area where wild beasts lived.

Finding locations where wild beasts gathered wasn’t hard, one quick search online brought up plenty.

30Th District had several areas specifically for wild beasts. These places were forbidden zones for ordinary people or low-level beast tamers, but to Pirite, there was little danger.

With such a strong companion beside her, Qiao Sang didn’t feel particularly nervous either.

Half an hour later, they arrived at a ruined site.

Looking around, they saw collapsed houses, structures made of green bricks and wood.

Some had their beams fallen in, others had their walls crumbled. Amidst the black, decaying wood and bricks, clusters of vibrant green weeds grew.

Wild beasts were nestled in every corner or perched atop the ruins, sound asleep.

These beasts weren’t large, just by size alone, none seemed to exceed the high-level rank.

“What do we do if they’re all asleep?” Qiao Sang asked.

She wasn’t too familiar with the beasts of the Chaosu Star to begin with. Now that they were all asleep and she couldn’t hear their voices, how was she supposed to judge their singing?

Just as this thought crossed her mind, Pirite said: “Watch me. You and your beasts cover your ears.”

Qiao Sang didn’t understand what he was about to do, but instinctively covered her ears and warned her beasts, “Cover your ears, all of you.”

“Xun xun~”

The invisible Little Treasure obediently covered his ears.

“Gang Slice.”

Gangbao lifted her wings to shield the sides of her head.

Lubao didn’t speak. She quietly zipped up her backpack.

Once everyone was ready, Pirite looked at the Famu Moth and commanded, “Howl.”

The Famu Moth nodded, took a step forward, and opened its mouth: “FA, FA!!!”

A deafening roar burst out instantly.

Th𝕀𝗌 ƈh𝕒p𝕥ҽr 𝑖𝖘 p𝕠ʂ𝓉𝙚đ bƴ 𝙆𝘪𝖙𝗲𝕟𝖔𝐯𝗲𝙡

Invisible sound waves rippled outward.

From above, one could see terrifying cracks forming on the ground within a kilometer radius.

The cracks continued spreading outward.

Beasts jolted awake from their sleep, letting out panicked cries as they fled in all directions.

“Xun xun!”

Little Treasure, covering his ears, revealed himself with an expression of too loud.

Pirite closed his eyes, focusing on the beasts’ cries around them.

After a few seconds, he suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: “Oppression.”

“FA!”

The Famu Moth responded with a cry.

Immediately, an overwhelming, unimaginable aura burst from its body, sweeping outward.

The oppressive might fell like a massive wave, covering the entire ruin.

All the fleeing beasts froze, then their eyes rolled back and they collapsed to the ground.

Even flying beasts plummeted from the sky.

Although Qiao Sang had covered her ears, her head was still buzzing from the Famu Moth’s roar. However, seeing the scene before her, she felt an even deeper shock.

So…so powerful…

At that moment, she truly grasped how terrifying Emperor-level beasts were.

“That black-and-white bear-like beast.”

Pirite began listing, “that Clear-tongue Shell, the Windpipe Fiend, the Dosidola, and that orange cat-like beast with curly fur on its head…”

After naming dozens of beasts, he continued, “These beasts all had good vocal qualities just now, catch them all.”

S-So skilled… He actually listened to all those beast cries at once and managed to analyze which ones had good voices in such a short time… Qiao Sang stared in amazement, deeply admiring Pirite’s ability while also realizing the huge gap between herself and a true master.

“Catch them all.” Pirite repeated when he saw Qiao Sang still in a daze.

Snapping back to her senses, Qiao Sang looked at Little Treasure.

“Find them all.”

“Xun xun~”

Little Treasure ascended into the air, took off his ring, and pulled out a beast scanner.

“The black-and-white bear-like beast.” Qiao Sang ordered.

Little Treasure scanned the area.

Soon, his gaze locked onto a target, and his eyes glowed blue.

In the next second, the black-and-white bear-like beast slowly floated up.

Qiao Sang immediately said, “Clear-tongue Shell.”

Little Treasure split into two copies. One used psychic power to control the targets, while his main body operated the scanner.

Soon, a ten-inch virtual screen appeared in midair.

Displayed on it was a beast resembling a clam, with a large tongue sticking out.

Little Treasure swiftly located the Clear-tongue Shell based on the image.

The moment its gaze fell on the Clear-tongue Shell, his copy also seemed to detect the target’s location and lifted it into the air.

“Windpipe Fiend.”

“Dosidola.”

“That orange cat-like beast with curly fur on its head…”

Qiao Sang repeated all the names Pirite had listed, one by one.

With each call, Little Treasure found and gathered the designated beasts into an open area.
