YM778.TV Chapter 292: You Don't Need to Understand
---
“Xun...”
Little Treasure slowly lowered the paw that had been covering his ears, his expression of shock gradually turning serene with the song.
It turned out Lubao could actually sing well...
Seems like his ears won’t have to suffer anymore.
How nice...
Qiao Sang also wore a peaceful expression.
It worked…Looks like Lubao will be able to heal Yabao in the future.
How nice...
Spike Spike...
The Spike Warrior also had a calm expression
Now that it thought about it, its trainer probably didn’t need it anymore...
How nice... like hell it was!
Spike Spike!
Spike Warrior shook its head, trying to rid itself of the thought that had just flashed through its mind.
Terrifying! It was too terrifying!
How could it think its trainer didn’t need it anymore?
Spike!
The evening breeze blew, and a shiver ran through Spike Warrior. Unable to bear the thought any longer, it ran off.
"Lu Lu..."
Lubao looked on, showing a disappointed expression.
“Why that face? Didn’t it work out?” Qiao Sang snapped out of her daze, rubbing Lubao’s head.
"Lu?"
Lubao looked up, confused.
Did it work?
“Of course.” Qiao Sang smiled.
“From the way Spike Warrior acted, it’s clear the healing soundwaves worked, even if only for a short time. He just recovered a little quickly, that’s all.”
"Lu..."
Lubao looked disappointed again.
So, the healing sound waves didn’t make much difference after all...
Qiao Sang glanced in the direction Spike Warrior had disappeared and said softly, “It absolutely made a difference. Although the healing soundwave only lasted briefly, in that moment, he confronted a truth he hadn’t dared admit before, and that’s enough.”
To be honest, as trainers develop their mental capacity and contract more beasts, even if they keep them all around, they’ll have certain preferences.
Whether based on appearance, talent, contract length, or the benefits they bring, trainers usually show varying degrees of favoritism.
Qiao Sang had heard of this before.
But it was her first time seeing a trainer like Spike Warrior’s, who had ignored him for over three years.
A trainer can have many beasts in their lifetime, but a beast usually only has one trainer.
Though Spike Warrior’s trainer had all but abandoned him, Qiao Sang never thought of canceling their contract.
One reason was that Spike Warrior was still a basic-level beast.
And his trainer, aside from anything else, definitely had another fairy-type beast in his care.
To put it mildly, even if he had only contracted two beasts, his mental capacity must be at least 20%, meaning a basic-level beast like Spike Warrior wouldn’t have the power to break the contract alone.
Another reason was that beasts who actively or forcibly break a contract face harsh consequences.
Forcibly breaking a contract would severely harm the beast’s innate talents and strength.
Finding another trainer afterward would be almost impossible.
Online statistics show that it’s about as likely as winning the lottery, a first place win, at that.
Trainers assess beasts’ potential based on staff descriptions and physical traits.
For a beast that’s broken a contract, no evaluation is needed; its future potential is understood to be bleak.
Even if a trainer were willing to take on such a beast, it would usually be due to financial constraints.
With such a trainer, there’d be no hope of evolution, and even securing a full meal could be a challenge.
Most contract-broken beasts end up in two scenarios.
They either wander the streets, eventually taken in by patrol units and sent to beast shelters, where they’d likely stay forever.
Or they’re released into a wilderness zone.
Having grown up in human care, adjusting to a survival-of-the-fittest environment is nearly impossible, with even finding a safe place to sleep a luxury.
Although Spike Warrior’s trainer may have abandoned him, at least his training, food, and lodging are secure.
All Qiao Sang can do is help Spike Warrior face reality sooner and let go of his trainer.
The truth may be harsh, but once accepted, it becomes easier over time.
Once Spike Warrior moves past his longing for his trainer and focuses on himself, he’ll be able to live a freer life.
"Xun?"
At this point, Little Treasure made a noise, signaling confusion.
Wouldn’t that be really painful?
Lubao looked up, echoing the question with a glance.
Under the moonlight, Qiao Sang, with Little Treasure on her head, held Lubao as they walked out of the Libo Training Hall.
Her gentle voice echoed under the warm streetlights:
“You don’t need to understand; this is something you won’t experience. For now, let’s head home. Yabao is probably eager to come out.”
"Xun~"
"Lu..."
---
Three days later.
“Lubao, use Healing Light on Yabao.”
"Lu." Lubao turned away.
Not a chance.
“How’s your healing soundwave training going? Use it once, let me see.”
"Lu～ Lu Lu Lu Lu～ Lu Lu Lu～ Lu"
“Lubao, use Healing Light on Yabao.”
"Lu Lu." Lubao nodded.
"Yap..."
Under the healing light, Yabao showed a content expression.
“Yabao, let’s continue training.”
"Yap!"
"Lu..."
Watching her trainer and Yabao walk away, Lubao’s expression turned perplexed.
How did she end up treating Yabao again?!
Three days!
Yabao trains at school, then at home; when will she ever surpass him?
"Lu!"
Determined, Lubao buried herself in training again.
No way! Since Yabao was training, Lubao needed to step up too!
Qiao Sang led Yabao to an open space in the courtyard and said, “Yabao, when you train with Little Treasure, avoid using Teleport and Meteor Rain. Focus on dodging instead of countering with abilities.”
Ever since seeing the ten-clawed crab kick a shuttle cock at the sports meet, Qiao Sang had wanted to train Yabao’s coordination.
But training fire abilities wouldn’t help with long-distance control of his clone.
To improve control, training coordination with the body and energy is essential.
Training battles help with this, though unfortunately, Yabao tends to finish battles too quickly for it to be effective.
So, they’ll restrict his abilities, no Teleport or Meteor Rain.
Coordination is the body’s ability to respond correctly in any unexpected situation.
Good coordination requires muscle and joint conditioning.
If Yabao used Teleport, none of this would be trained.
And with Meteor Rain well, let’s just say they’d need Lubao for healing immediately afterward.
"Yap!"
Hearing her instructions, Yabao nodded seriously.
“Little Treasure, you need to go on the offensive more. Stop just dodging.” Qiao Sang turned to Little Treasure.
"Xun!"
Little Treasure patted his chest with a golden-gloved paw, signaling, No problem at all.
