Novel Bin Chapter 22: Training Plan
Qiao Sang stared at the description of the Eight-Tentacled Coral, speechless.
Isn’t this just a chameleon?
But of course, the world of beast taming is truly extraordinary. No chameleon from her previous life could pull off such an exaggerated effect.
The Eight-Tentacle Coral on that bus was clinging to the square-faced man\'s upper body, while its other eight tentacles were suspended in mid-air.
Despite the close proximity of the passengers on the bus, no one noticed.
Thinking about this, Qiao Sang searched for more information on the Eight-Tentacled Coral.
After browsing for five minutes, she was left puzzled.
Nothing.The information available didn’t explain why the Eight-Tentacled Coral’s aura could disappear so suddenly.
At first, when she was on the bus, she thought for a moment that the square-faced man had stored his beast in the Beast Taming Codex.
However, when a beast is stored in the Codex, a faint light appears on the beast.
If that had been the case, everyone on the bus would have noticed, so it was clear that the Eight-Tentacled Coral had not been stored.
That’s why when the square-faced man got off the bus, she paid special attention.
If the aura hadn’t disappeared, why did Fire fang dog suddenly smell it and then lose track of it?
The square-faced man was only two people away from her; there’s no way Fire fang dog could have failed to catch the scent at such close range.
But Fire fang dog insisted that the aura suddenly appeared and then disappeared.
The Eight-Tentacled Coral was always on the square-faced man, so its aura should have been constant.
How could it have appeared out of nowhere? Could it be that Fire fang dog’s nose isn’t that sharp?
So, was it only able to detect it after sniffing it up close?
“Yah…choo!”
Fire fang dog suddenly sneezed.
Qiao Sang couldn’t figure it out after thinking for a long time, so she simply went online to ask for help on a forum.
This is when the value of the forum became apparent.
It didn’t take long before someone gave her an answer.
“Isn’t it just aura suppression?”
“No way, how could it just disappear and reappear like that? It should take at least a minute.”
“Maybe it’s just bad at suppressing its aura?”
“I think you’re onto something.”
“When I first trained my Extreme Iron Bull, its aura only disappeared for two seconds.”
“Online lessons on aura suppression, only 998 credits! Just 998!”
“Don’t fall for it! That guy’s a scammer!”
Qiao Sang suddenly realized that these strange phenomena had to be related to some skill.
Aura suppression is a skill that, except in specific situations, is rarely used, so it’s no wonder she didn’t think of it sooner.
If Fire fang dog could combine a sandstorm skill to obscure vision with aura suppression, it would be a deadly combination.
But, unfortunately, Fire fang dog doesn’t know how to do that.
For now, there’s no need for Fire fang dog to learn this skill.
Qiao Sang closed her computer and looked at Fire fang dog
She hadn’t forgotten what needed to be done that evening.
“Fire fang dog, use Fire Fang as many times as you can.”
“Fang.”
Although Fire fang dog didn’t understand its Beast Tamer’s intentions, it nodded obediently.
Three minutes later, Fire fang dog was panting heavily on the ground.
Qiao Sang counted—it had used the skill 13 times.
That’s more than she expected.
But that might be because it had just eaten an energy meal.
Just as Qiao Sang was thinking of checking the Beast Taming Codex…
“Yap…”
Fire fang dog weakly called out to Qiao Sang.
She immediately understood and got up, heading to the kitchen. She took two Red Awl Fruits from the fridge, juiced them, and poured the juice into a bowl.
After finishing the last six Red Awl Fruits, her mother had bought another six.
But this time, Qiao Sang had been rationing them, allowing Fire fang dog only one every two days.
One Red Awl Fruit costs 700 Alliance Coins, and it’s not sustainable to eat them every day.
Since Fire fang dog had worked hard today, Qiao Sang couldn’t resist giving it two fruits.
Now that she had 50,000 Alliance Coins, she could afford to be a bit indulgent.
Fire fang dog held the bowl with its front paws and gulped down the juice. After finishing, it let out a satisfied bark.
Seeing Fire fang dog’s cheerful demeanor, Qiao Sang couldn’t resist patting its head.
Even though Fire fang dog seemed lively, its body was exhausted and soon fell asleep on the floor.
Qiao Sang carried it to the bed, tucked it in, and then sat down at her desk.
Training without a plan is inefficient, so Qiao Sang decided to write up a training schedule.
First, wake up at 6 AM for a morning run to train both stamina and speed.
Fire fang dog’s speed is lacking, so that needs to be a focus. Otherwise, it will be an easy target, and even if it attacks, it won’t be able to land a hit. That won’t do.
Aside from speed training, the rest of the time will be spent practicing skills.
Fire fang dog currently knows Bite, Charge, Fire Fang, and Ember. Except for Charge, the other skills are still at the beginner level.
Qiao Sang decided not to have Fire fang dog continue practicing Bite. Now that it knows Fire Fang, a more powerful intermediate skill, Bite seems redundant.
Charge is currently at the intermediate level, with over 300 points needed to reach the next stage of mastery.
If they want to achieve mastery before the special admissions test for Shengshui Academy, Fire fang dog would need to use Charge about 40 times a day.
But training speed, practicing Fire Fang and Ember, plus using Charge 40 times a day is impossible.
Fire fang dog is less than a month old, and such intense training would be too much.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment, then changed the 40 to 10.
In the next nine days, besides speed training, the focus will be on improving Fire Fang and Ember to intermediate.
Only by enduring hardships can one rise above the rest.
Qiao Sang looked at the training plan in her hand and smiled with satisfaction.

The next morning.
“Why aren’t you at school yet?” Her mother asked sternly.
Qiao Sang checked the time. It was 7:54 AM. She had overslept.
The 6 AM morning run plan died before it even began…
“Mom, why haven’t you left yet?” Qiao Sang retorted.
She hadn’t figured out how to tell her mother about taking time off from school.
If she were a top student, she could just say she wanted to study and train Fire fang dog at home for the last few days.
But the problem is that, in her mother’s eyes, she’s a slacker…
Who would expect a slacker to study well after leaving school?
Qiao Sang hadn’t planned on hiding this from her mother forever, just until after the special admissions test at Shengshui Academy.
Her mother usually left earlier than she did, but today was an exception. A miscalculation…
“I have a client who booked me for the whole day. I’ll be leaving this afternoon. What about you? How could you sleep in on one of your last days of school? It’s already 8:10, and class starts soon. What time is it now?” Her mother said, displeased.
“I’ll head out right away!” Qiao Sang promised.
She grabbed the bread on the table, put it in her mouth, put on her shoes, picked up Fire fang dog, and left the house in one swift motion.
Outside the door, Qiao Sang sighed.
She had planned to rest at home after training this morning, but now it seemed she would have to spend the day out.
