Beast Taming: Starting From Zero-Chapter 628: Leaving School

It really was an admission letter… Who would have thought it would be delivered this way? At that moment, Qiao Sang’s interest in mechanical-type pet beasts skyrocketed.

Just imagine arguing with someone online.

The other person arrogantly says, “Come at me if you dare!”

Qiao Sang chuckles, glances at her mechanical pet beast.

The mechanical pet immediately understands, reaches into the computer, follows the internet connection, finds the other person, slap! A solid smack right across the face. (T/n: Me to annoying fictional characters😆)

How satisfying would that be?

Lost in her daydream, Qiao Sang opened the acceptance letter.

A video appeared out of thin air above it.

On screen, a middle-aged white woman with half-gray hair smiled and said,

“Congratulations on being admitted to the Imperial Beast University. I am Headmistress Theresa Dwight. I know you must have many thoughts, ‘Is this the right place for me? Do I truly belong here?’ I assure you, we see many shining qualities in you, even ones you may not have noticed yourself. You will find your place here.”

“Freshman Qiao Sang, welcome to the Beast Taming Department at Imperial Beast University.”

The video ended.

Beast Taming Department… Qiao Sang fell into thought.

This was always a top-tier major in elite academies.

She had read about it in the blue brochure given by the Imperial Beast University instructor. Their Beast Taming Department ranked second across the interstellar domain and first on Blue Star, one of the academy’s most prestigious and competitive fields.

Since she planned to pursue a career as a professional beast tamer, this department was indeed a great fit for her…

Closing the admission letter, Qiao Sang suddenly thought of something. She picked up her phone and snapped a few pictures of the letter.

Then, she reopened it, sure enough, the video played again.

Once it finished, she took pictures of the video content as well and sent them to her mom.

After doing all this, she opened her social media for the first time in a while, selected one of the photos, and posted it with a caption:

“I didn’t even take the college entrance exam, yet I got into university. Never saw that coming.”

Looking at her post, Qiao Sang smiled in satisfaction.

This was the Imperial Beast University. If she didn’t flex a little, it would be a crime against nature.

Blue Star.

Yuhua Region, Zhejiang Sea Province, Hanggang City

Under the night sky, the Ya Zai Pet Beast Breeding Shop was still brightly lit.

“Boss, you should go home. It’s already late, and we’ve got it covered here.” A young, sweet-looking girl said.

“There’ve been too many customers lately. If I leave, you’ll all be overwhelmed.” Ye Xiangting replied, exhaustion visible on her face.

“The junior high students are about to awaken their mental domains soon, and the internet just revealed the evolution method for Fire Fang Dogs into Flame Hounds, of course, we’re busy.”

The young man beside her, handsome yet equally tired, added, “I bet we’ll be slammed for at least another two months.”

Ye Xiangting picked up her phone and said, “You’ve all worked hard during this period. Close up in an hour, and dinner’s on me-”

Her voice suddenly cut off.

The employees looked at their boss, only to see her staring blankly at her phone screen. Then, in the next instant, she became visibly excited, her eyes shining with an almost tearful glow, as if she had seen something incredible.

“Boss, what’s wrong?” The female employee asked curiously.

Ye Xiangting looked up, eyes brimming with emotion, and announced, “She got in! My daughter got into Imperial Beast University!”

The store fell silent.

The employees exchanged bewildered glances, momentarily wondering if they had misheard.

Imperial Beast University?

The top-ranked university on Blue Star, first among all elite academies?

But… wasn’t the boss’s daughter only a high school sophomore?!

Before anyone could voice their doubts, Ye Xiangting grabbed her bag, dialed a number while rushing out the door, and turned back to excitedly declare, “Go home, go home! Everyone take the night off! Tomorrow, dinner’s on me!”

The employees stood frozen in place.

A few seconds later, the young male employee swallowed hard and hesitantly asked, “Did the boss’s daughter really get into Imperial Beast University?”

The older male employee beside him nodded.

“Judging by her reaction… it seems real.”

Silence fell over them once more.

Imperial Beast University was a place far beyond their reach, even Yuhua University was already an unattainable dream.

Now, someone close to them, albeit unseen, had actually been admitted to this legendary institution. It felt surreal.

Then, the sweet-looking female employee suddenly spoke up:

“Wait, wasn’t the boss’s daughter still in sophomore year? Did she get direct admission to Imperial Beast University?”

At that, the store fell silent yet again.

High in the Sky.

“Who got you that recommendation letter?! Tell me so I can take them out for a meal!” Ye Xiangting, riding on her Glide Owl, exclaimed excitedly into the phone.

“It was the vice principal. He asked Professor Wang Yanmao to arrange it for me.” Qiao Sang explained.

“That vice principal is amazing, he still looks after you even though you’re not at school anymore.” Ye Xiangting laughed.

“Send me his contact info. I have to treat him to dinner.”

So she finally believed me after seeing the admission letter… Qiao Sang smiled.

“Alright.”

Ye Xiangting suddenly thought of something and said happily, “Now that you’re in Imperial Beast University, you don’t even need to take the college entrance exam!”

Qiao Sang hummed in agreement.

“Yeah, I don’t think I’ll take it.”

Ye Xiangting considered this and suggested, “You should go anyway, just for the experience. You only get one chance to take the entrance exam.”

Having already gone through it once in her past life, Qiao Sang had no desire to experience it again. She was just about to tell her mom that she planned to leave school early to find a volcano where Yabao could evolve-

But before she could say anything, her mom happily said, “Alright then, get some rest. I have something to take care of. Talk later!”

“Huh?” Before Qiao Sang could react, the call had already ended.

Qiao Sang: …

What could be so urgent that she hung up so fast?

She put down her phone, checked the time, it wasn’t too late by Blue Star's clock.

Ten minutes later, she called her mom again, intending to inform her about leaving school early.

“Sorry, the number you dialed is currently busy…”

Qiao Sang hung up.

Twenty minutes later...

“Sorry, the number you dialed is currently busy…”

Who’s she talking to for so long? Qiao Sang muttered as she hung up again.

One hour later...

The same automated message played.

Qiao Sang: …

She put down her phone, deep in thought.

Was Mom calling all our distant relatives to tell them I got into Imperial Beast University…?

On Blue Star.

Ye Xiangting continued calling people well into the next morning.

Though she had dark circles under her eyes, her energy was through the roof.

After making sure she had contacted everyone she could think of, she still felt unsatisfied.

Suddenly, an idea struck her. She grabbed an old address book, flipped through the pages, and started dialing numbers.

“Zhang Li! It’s me, Ye Xiangting, your elementary school desk mate! I feel like we haven’t had a class reunion in forever… Let’s have one soon! Don’t worry about money, I’ll cover everything. Just show up!”

Chaosu Star.

At dawn, Qiao Sang woke up naturally, skipping her usual early morning trip to send Yabao and the others to training.

She took her time freshening up, dressed in casual clothes, prepared energy pills for her pet beasts, then leisurely sat at the table, savoring her breakfast.

She usually ate in a hurry, but eating slowly like this… somehow made the food taste better.

After finishing her milk, Qiao Sang packed her belongings into Little Treasure’s storage ring.

Once everything was set, she held Yabao, slung a backpack containing Lubao, and left her dorm room, stepping toward the school's gates.

She had already informed her homeroom teacher about leaving early.

With the college entrance exam approaching, roads would soon face traffic restrictions.

And after the exam, students would flood travel destinations.

It was better to leave now while travel was convenient and crowds were minimal to find Kotea Volcano and help Yabao evolve.
