Chapter 2173: Chapter 278: Task Assessment (Double-Length) Part 3
"Shenshen." The spectral image of a square-shaped pet beast radiating silver light called out and then disappeared.
Huh? Uh?! Qiao Sang was momentarily stunned, quickly asking, "Can I switch to a task with a longer duration?"
"Once a task is issued, it cannot be changed." Red said calmly, "Contact me if you complete the task within a month."
With that, he disappeared from the spot along with a pink feline pet beast.
Qiao Sang: "!!!"
Qiao Sang looked at Teacher Mikaela, using her eyes to ask, "What should I do now?"
Mikaela turned her head back silently, pretending she didn’t see the look.
"Teacher, the examiner said there’s only one month!" Qiao Sang couldn’t help but say, "Didn’t you say that task assessments generally have a one-year deadline?"
I’ve heard... Mikaela said in a calm tone, "Most tasks do have a one-year deadline, only a few have shorter durations."
The implication is that your luck isn’t great.
"What should I do then?" Qiao Sang said anxiously, "Even if I complete the task, in a month’s time Xun Xun and Qingbao definitely won’t cooperate well for the double battle assessment."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Mikaela said while sipping a drink, "You still have the combination of Ice Emperor Ram and Night Ring King."
"And even after completing the task assessment, the battle assessment won’t evolve immediately; there will be a waiting period."
Hearing this, Qiao Sang gradually relaxed.
Indeed, Lubao can still be sent out. Although she promised Qingbao, if they don’t cooperate well in the double battle, the assessment is the priority, and the stronger Lubao will be sent to fight.
Then Qiao Sang remembered something and asked, "What is Hidden Ghost Grass? How is it related to Spiritual Vision?"
Mikaela put down the drink and said solemnly:
"It is a plant that can only be seen by spectral-type pet beasts and Beast Tamers with Spiritual Vision. It’s extremely rare and considered an endangered species among plants, having great research value."
"I never knew such a plant existed." Qiao Sang felt like she had gained more knowledge.
Mikaela continued, "Jia Country is the fourth-largest nation on the Flame Sky Star in terms of area. Once the Demon Spirit Jade arrives tomorrow, we’ll head out immediately."
Qiao Sang nodded and said:
"Understood!"
...
11:30 PM.
Qiao Sang lay in bed, set the alarm, and gradually fell asleep with her eyelids getting heavier.
Little Treasure Spirit was happily playing on the phone on the sofa.
"Knock knock."
Suddenly, there were two knocks on the window.
Little Treasure Spirit looked toward the sound and saw the Qiyu Feng at the window.
It was startled, quickly lowering its head, pretending not to notice.
"Knock knock!"
Qiyu Feng showed a displeased expression and knocked on the window twice more.
Gangbao opened its eyes, looked at Qiyu Feng at the window, glanced at Little Treasure Spirit on the sofa, then closed its eyes again.
"Xun Xun..."
Little Treasure Spirit finally got up.
Qiyu Feng’s expression softened.
Little Treasure Spirit went to the window and silently pulled the curtain shut.
Qiyu Feng: "???"
"Qiyu!"
Qiyu Feng opened the window with an extremely displeased expression, chirping as if to say, "What do you mean? I brought you something, and you shut me out!"
Little Treasure Spirit was startled, trying to cover Qiyu Feng’s beak.
But it was too late; Qiao Sang groggily woke up and saw Qiyu Feng, who had appeared in the room at some point. Instantly awake, full of surprise, she said:
"Qiyu Feng, you’re here."
"Xun Xun..."
Little Treasure Spirit immediately showed a hopeless expression.
Darn, its screen is gone...
Seeing the human so delighted by its arrival, Qiyu Feng’s expression softened again and chirped:
"Qiyu."
Of course it came, it hadn’t forgotten its promise.
Saying this, Qiyu Feng spread its wings, revealing a black crystal cylindrical object with an exterior like ice crack patterns, chirping:
"Qiyu."
This item was given to me by a spectral-type pet beast seeking my protection in the past, now it’s for you.
With that, it thrust it into Little Treasure Spirit’s paw.
"Xun Xun..."
Little Treasure Spirit reluctantly accepted it.
"What is this?" Qiao Sang asked.
Though she constantly crammed knowledge, they were mostly about pet beasts, traits, and skills, not materials.
"Qiyu."
Qiyu Feng showed a momentarily embarrassed expression but chirped quickly.
It didn’t know either, but if the other party could give it, it must be impressive.
Qiao Sang: "..."
You don’t even know, yet you give it to me, did you learn this from Yinpan Spirit... Qiao Sang internally complained but outwardly said solemnly:
"Thank you."
Honestly, she had prepared herself for the possibility that Qiyu Feng might forget about this, so it was surprising that it really brought spectral-type resources over.
"Qiyu."
"Qiyu."
Qiyu Feng smiled, chirping twice, indicating it’s nothing—after all, it couldn’t use this item, so if you need anything in the future, just come to Flying Bird Island to find me.
It now found the human in front of it quite likable; her presence had greatly improved its relationship with Yinpan Spirit.
"Okay." Qiao Sang smiled and said, "I just hope you don’t forget who I am by then."
"Qiyu."
Qiyu Feng showed a "How could I" expression, chirped once, indicating it had a very good memory.
With that, it flapped its wings and flew out the window.
Meanwhile, in another room, Dragon King snorted coldly, restrained the urge to go out, and closed its eyes.
