Kang Yang walked quickly to the dining table and sat down. Seeing Mikayla and Qiao Sang still calmly eating their breakfast, he couldn't help saying in surprise: "How can you two have zero reaction after hearing this news?"

Qiao Sang glanced at him: "Because the Real Generation Bird came looking for us last night."

Kang Yang: ???

Qiao Sang continued: "And we've already gotten our hands on the True Fire Crystal."

Huh? The Real Generation Bird came to look for you? And you've already gotten the True Fire Crystal? Kang Yang was dumbfounded.

It wasn't that he was surprised Senior Mikayla had such means.

But... hadn't they just arrived?

They had literally just asked him to make inquiries yesterday...

"How could the Real Generation Bird come looking for you? How did you contact it? How did you manage that?" Kang Yang couldn't help firing off three questions in a row.

Mikayla took a bite of her sandwich and said: "It was all Qiao Sang's credit."

Kang Yang looked over.

Qiao Sang smiled: "It wasn't my credit, it was all Yabao..."

"Xun xun~"

Speaking up to this point, Little Treasure puffed out his chest and let out a call.

Qiao Sang paused, then added: "And Little Treasure's credit too."

"When we were chatting yesterday, didn't you mention the Real Generation Bird's account on YouShi..." She rambled on, explaining how they made contact with the Real Generation Bird, how it came over in the middle of the night, and finally how Spengami skilfully snatched the feather.

Naturally, she didn't mention the part where Yabao initiated the match and got one-shotted.

After listening and digesting the story, Kang Yang sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect the Real Generation Bird would actually read comments and agree to show up for a match."

In his view, the hardest part was tracking down the Real Generation Bird. As long as the Real Generation Bird was located, getting a feather was naturally a piece of cake given Senior Mikayla's capabilities.

The Excellent Detective Cat poured a glass of milk and brought it over in front of him.

Kang Yang picked up the glass, took a sip of milk, and said with quite an awkward expression: "I originally thought I was helping out, but it turns out I didn't help at all."

"How could that be." Qiao Sang said. 

"If you hadn't told me the Real Generation Bird's social media account, we wouldn't have been able to make contact with it so quickly."

This junior really isn't like someone from the Imperial Class at all... Kang Yang sighed with emotion internally, stood up, and said: "It's great that the True Fire Crystal is in hand. Since there's nothing left for me to do, I'll take my leave first. You two can come over to my Pet Spa Center to play whenever you're free."

"Sit down." Mikayla said calmly.

Kang Yang immediately sat back down.

"There's still a favor I need from you." Mikayla said.

"Senior, just say the word." Kang Yang quickly replied.

Mikayla looked at Qiao Sang, giving a subtle signal with her eyes.

Qiao Sang understood what Teacher Mikayla wanted her to say and spoke up: "It's like this: We still need to collect the Sun Crystal and the Li Fire Crystal next. So we want to know if there's any news about the legendary pet Lioyas, or news about the Sun Crystal."

Although the news this senior brought this morning was no longer useful, the Real Generation Bird had come in the middle of the night and made direct contact with them. To be able to deliver news about the Real Generation Bird by this morning proved that his information channels were indeed remarkably well-informed.

Kang Yang pondered for a moment and said: "News about the legendary pet Lioyas might be somewhat difficult, but I will do my best to inquire. As for the Sun Crystal, I know someone who has one in hand."

Mikayla looked up over at him.

"Who?" Qiao Sang was stunned at first, and then her eyes lit up as excitement filled her heart.

She never expected that right after securing the True Fire Crystal, news regarding the Sun Crystal would follow so quickly.

"Xinhuoyang." Kang Yang said.

"Who is Xinhuoyang?" Qiao Sang asked.

"He's the champion of the last Master Challenge Cup." Kang Yang explained. 

"I watched the previous Master Challenge Cup, and I remember one of the champion's prizes was a Sun Crystal."

"That's fantastic!" 

Qiao Sang turned to look at Mikayla, saying excitedly, "He's a public figure, so making inquiries will be much easier. Teacher, let's go find him."

Mikayla pondered and said: "I remember Leon's student participated in the last Master Challenge Cup. Perhaps she has the champion's contact information."

"You mean Junior Oceania?" Kang Yang recalled. 

"I remember she took fourth place."

Sighing, he said: "What a shame, she was so close to making the top three."

Oceania... Qiao Sang remembered the senior in her early sixties who actually looked to be around thirty whom she had met back on Qingguang Island. Thinking to herself: Fourth place in the Master Challenge Cup, that's incredible...

She still remembered Teacher Mikayla mentioning that it was a tournament only Beast Tamers who aspired to become Master Beast Tamers signed up for, the competition was bound to be fierce.

As her thoughts flickered, Kang Yang added:

"The Sun Crystal is considered a supreme treasure for Fire-type pets. Any Fire-type pet that uses it will see the power of its internal Fire-type energy surge. Xinhuoyang has three Fire-type pets, once the Sun Crystal reached his hands, he probably used it long ago. Let me inquire about the whereabouts of other Sun Crystals instead."

Mikayla said calmly: "You keep making inquiries about news of other Sun Crystals, while I look for Xinhuoyang on my end. We'll prepare on both fronts."

"Understood." Kang Yang said respectfully.

As expected, having a thick thigh to cling to feels amazing, I don't have to worry about a thing... Qiao Sang marveled inwardly, feeling a surge of relief.

After chatting a few more lines on this topic, Kang Yang stood up to say goodbye and left.

"Yap yap!"

After finishing his energy pills, Yabao called out to Little Treasure.

"Xun xun!"

Little Treasure shook his head repeatedly.

"Yap yap!"

Yabao put on an expression of disappointed in your lack of ambition.

"Lu di."

At this moment, Lubao, who had just finished her energy pills, called out.

"Yap yap!"

Yabao was stunned for a moment, then nodded happily and walked toward the open-air training field.

Lubao followed behind.

"Xun xun..."

Little Treasure let out a sigh of relief as Yabao's back vanished from view.

"Qing qing."

Qingbao, having witnessed the entire process, cast a disdainful look at Little Treasure.

"Xun xun!"

Little Treasure was unhappy with that, calling out to indicate: If you're so great, why don't you go?

"Qing qing!"

Qingbao laughed out of frustration, calling out to indicate that if she were at the King level, she would definitely go over.

"Xun xun..."

Little Treasure pulled the corners of his mouth wide with his paws, made a funny face, and called out.

Too bad you aren't.

"Qing qing!"

Veins bulged on Qingbao's forehead as she put on an angry expression and yelled loudly.

At the same time, fierce gales suddenly whipped up in the surroundings.

Seeing that things were going south, Little Treasure quickly made a run for it.

"Qing qing!"

Qingbao turned into wind and gave chase from behind.

"Xun xun!"

"Qing qing!"

The two pets chased each other around the living room, the strong winds blowing the chandelier, potted plants, and curtains back and forth.

"Xia xia!"

Shalala raised its head, looking at Little Treasure and Qingbao chasing each other, putting on a worried expression as it called out.

"Gang qiu."

Gangbao calmly called out while eating her energy pills, indicating that nothing was wrong and they were just playing around.

"Xia xia..."

Hearing this, Shalala's mind set at ease.

"Lei lei..."

Tingbao looked up at the scene, lost in thought.

So this is what playing looks like...

Amidst the fierce wind, Qiao Sang finished taking care of her meal, wiped her mouth with a tissue, and asked: "Should we contact Teacher Leon right now?"

Mikayla fell silent for a moment, pulled out her phone, searched through her contacts, and dialed a number.

After ringing twice with a "Beep beep", the call connected:

"It's me... I have something to ask you... Does Oceania know Xinhuoyang's contact information... I need a Sun Crystal, and I heard one of his champion prizes last time was a Sun Crystal... How did you know... Alright, I understand."

With that, Mikayla hung up the phone.

"What did he say?" Qiao Sang asked impatiently.

Mikayla looked over and said: "Xinhuoyang has already used up the Sun Crystal."

Used it up... Qiao Sang was stunned.

Mikayla continued: "He has a Flaming Leather Dragon that needed a Sun Crystal to evolve. Right after the competition ended and he received the prize, Xinhuoyang gave it to the dragon. Oceania saw it with her own eyes."

So that's how it is... Makes sense, for such a precious item, if it can be used, it's best used as soon as possible... 

Hearing this, Qiao Sang felt slightly disappointed, but quickly perked up her spirits and said: "It's fine, I didn't expect to find a Sun Crystal so quickly anyway. Besides, Senior Kang Yang is helping search for news too, I believe we'll find one soon."

Mikayla smiled: "Good mindset. Get ready, we're heading to the Valley of Flowers."

"Valley of Flowers?" Qiao Sang asked in confusion.

Mikayla said slowly: "It's an amusement park valley, supposedly especially suitable for Grass-type pets to visit."

Qiao Sang: ...

After packing up simply and changing clothes, Qiao Sang held a photo she had prepared on her phone in front of Shalala and said: "Change your appearance. You habitually fly sometimes, but a Little Dumb Fruit can't. Flying around in its form will draw attention, but changing into a Fresh Dandelion won't cause any problems at all."

"Xia xia."

Shalala stared intently at the photo on the phone, called out seriously, and then channeled energy into the green flower atop its head.

Its appearance shifted accordingly.

Before long, a pet about thirty centimeters tall, mostly white all over with a head resembling a spherical cotton ball, appeared before her eyes.

Qiao Sang examined the pet before her, checked the photo on her phone again, and seeing they matched perfectly, nodded: "Nice, let's go."

Saying so, she turned and walked in the direction of Little Treasure.

"Xia xia."

Shalala quickly followed.

Valley of Flowers, Entrance.

Qiao Sang, Mikayla, Yabao, and the others appeared out of thin air.

Quite a few people and pets turned their gazes over in unison.

Aside from humans, most visitors coming to the Valley of Flowers were Grass-type, Flying-type, or Bug-type pets. Among them, Grass-type pets generally possessed quite high aesthetic appeal, but seeing a group of pets with such extraordinarily high looks was still a rare sight.

Qiao Sang scanned the surroundings, pointed toward the ticket booth, and said: "I'll go over there to buy tickets."

"No need." Mikayla said. 

"I've already bought the tickets on the official app. We can go straight in."

Saying so, she walked toward the ticket inspection area.

Following Teacher Mikayla really saves so much trouble... Qiao Sang marveled inwardly, taking swift steps to follow with Yabao and the others.

After queuing for ticket inspection and passing through the corridor, what met their eyes was a valley that resembled a secluded paradise.

The valley was covered in green grass and blooming flowers, almost all of which were species rarely seen outside.

Numerous Flying-type pets of various forms perched on trees or circled in the air.

Bug-type pets flew or crawled among the flowers and grass, occasionally resting on Grass-type pets. Most Grass-type pets paid no mind, with only a few showing displeased expressions and shaking their bodies.

There were also Water-type pets opening their mouths to spray water guns onto the flowers and grass.

Everywhere was filled with the vibrant vigor of life.

"Yap yap..."

Yabao's unfocused attention was instantly captured, and he showed an awestruck expression.

At the same time, back at the villa, the Blazing Divine Lion clones training on the open-air training field vanished one by one.

"Xun xun!"

Little Treasure's eyes lit up, and he floated happily toward the flower bushes.

"Qing qing!"

Qingbao's eyes lit up as well. Joyful winds whipped up around her, and she turned into wind and vanished.

"Lu di..."

Lubao poked her head out from the backpack. When she saw the scene before her, she froze for a moment, then leaped out from the backpack.

"Lei lei..."

Tingbao wriggled his body, moving closer to Lubao.

"Gang qiu..."

Gangbao flapped her wings, showing an admiring expression as she looked at everything in front of her.

"Go if you want." Qiao Sang turned and smiled.

Hearing this, Gangbao no longer hesitated, flapping her wings to fly into the midst of the flowers and grass.

"Do you like it?" Mikayla turned to ask Shalala beside her.

"Xia..." Shalala had only uttered a single word when it suddenly remembered something, covered its mouth, and nodded forcefully.

Mikayla's expression grew even gentler: "Then let's..."

"Qing qing!"

Before she could finish her sentence, a brisk gust of wind blew over, accompanied by Qingbao's call, blowing Shalala up into the air.

"Xia xia!"

Shalala was stunned at first, then showed a happy expression.

The gentle breeze carried Shalala toward the flower bushes.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang looked down at Lubao and Tingbao and said: "Let's go over too."

Saying so, she walked forward with brisk steps while shouting: "Wait for me, you guys!"

Lubao flicked her tail, following behind with light steps.

Tingbao followed right after.

Looking at the beautiful scene before her, Mikayla revealed a smile, looked at Spengami and Dragon King, and said: "Let's go over too."

"Peng peng..."

Spengami let out a yawn and called out, indicating that they could play while it found a spot to sleep, telling them to wake it when they were done.

With that, it teleported under a tree not far away, lay on its side, and closed its eyes.

"Mo mo."

Dragon King, on the other hand, let out a call with a disdainful expression.

What's so fun about this? It doesn't look nearly as fun as its Dragon Valley.

Mikayla: ...

Mikayla looked at the energetic Yabao and the others up ahead, then looked at Dragon King and Spengami closing its eyes nearby, letting out a heavy sigh in her heart: Is this the difference between young pets and elderly pets?

"All the soil here is rare fresh soil. If Grass-type pets take root and stay here for a period of time, they'll grow much faster than outside." Qiao Sang introduced to Lubao and Tingbao beside her, as well as Yabao who had returned to her side, holding the Valley of Flowers detail map distributed at the entrance.

Lubao observed the surroundings without speaking.

Tingbao stayed right next to Lubao, completely uninterested in these introductions.

"Yap yap."

Yabao listened earnestly, periodically showing amazed expressions.

Looking at the detail map, Qiao Sang continued: "Crossing the bridge up ahead leads to the Grand View Garden. Besides taller plants inside, there are also giant Grass-type pets. It's said that entering there is like stepping into a kingdom of grass giants."

"However, the reason those Grass-type pets are so massive isn't because of high levels, but because they are workers who have ingested Gigantism Powder, allowing them to become extraordinarily huge for a certain period of time."

"Yap yap..."

Yabao put on an expression of so that's a thing.

Qiao Sang smiled: "Once Little Treasure and the others are done playing here, we can go check it out over there."

"Lu di."

"Yap yap!"

Lubao and Yabao called out one after another, indicating they had no objections.

Holding the detail map, Qiao Sang prepared to introduce other areas.

Suddenly, a voice clearly coming from a loudspeaker rang out nearby: "The reason the entire Valley of Flowers is so full of vital energy is all thanks to the Phantom Beast Shalala..."

T/n: Little Treasure and Qingbao are bad influence for Tingbao. And Mikayla's basically wanted to be Shalala's nanny. Too bad Shalala prefers Qiao Sang.

  1. Thanks for the chapter!

    Little Treasure appears to have long since stopped trying to earn Qingbao’s favor, instead actively inducing her ire. And yes, it’s bad for Tingbao’s education.

    Of course Shalala prefers Qiao Sang, she’s the reason it got permission in the first place to explore. And Qiao Sang is its designated guardian and condition for free exploration.

    That aside, Qiao Sang is the only human treating Shalala normally. XD
