Chapter 737: Chapter 662: Getting Beaten Up

Elma pinched Qiao Sang’s arm to feel its firmness and said,

"Not bad, this firmness is good enough to start training."

As she spoke, she looked toward Stabbing Fist Boy on the side, "Just 20 kilograms of force will do."

"Stabbing Fist." Stabbing Fist Boy called out, then turned around to put on a pair of red boxing gloves for itself.

What’s it going to do... Seeing this, Qiao Sang had a bad feeling in her heart.

The next second, her premonition came true.

Elma said, "Don’t be afraid, this level of force won’t injure you."

Qiao Sang: "..."

"Are you ready?" Elma asked.

Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds, then assumed a horse stance, "I’m ready."

Elma gave a nod to Stabbing Fist Boy.

The next second, Stabbing Fist Boy swung its fists, striking forcefully.

Qiao Sang swayed slightly, and a single thought crossed her mind:

It really doesn’t hurt that much...

Suddenly, she remembered something and reminded, "Don’t hit the face."

"Stabbing Fist." Stabbing Fist Boy called out, indicating it understood.

Without pausing, it continued hammering Qiao Sang, treating her like a punching bag.

Initially, Qiao Sang could not withstand the force and was unsteady, but after nearly ten minutes of continuous pounding, she was able to stand as steady as a mountain.

That is, she could remain unmoved while being beaten.

On the side, Elma did not forget her duty as a coach:

"To strengthen your defensive power, you must start by training the skin, then the muscles, and finally the bones. What you need to do now is to enhance your impact resistance."

"Although your skin is now tough, the force of the impacts is real. Once you get used to the force, you won’t need to apply the skunk venom anymore. After your own skin adjusts, you can apply the venom again to increase the force of the impact training."

"Once you can withstand a 200-kilogram punch force, the first round of the curriculum would be considered complete."

At this point, she had a smile full of joy on her face, "You will need at least 30 classes to see the effects of this round of the curriculum. Why not get a membership card? Then you can pay for the entire round of classes at once and get a 20% discount."

Without a second thought, Qiao Sang said, "Alright, I’ll get a card."

Upon hearing this, Elma’s smile deepened.

At that moment, she turned to the Steel Guard Sparrowhawk nearby and said,

"The Steel Guard Sparrowhawk should train as well."

You just said that... Curious, Qiao Sang asked, "Same training method as mine?"

Gangbao looked toward the human known as Coach Elma.

Elma shook her head, "Of course not. As a Combat Series intermediate-level Pet Beast, the Steel Guard Sparrowhawk certainly can’t train the same way you do."

"It’s a Bond Evolution. Since you share pain during battle, it must fight against stronger opponents, sustain injuries, and you need to feel the pain. The more you feel the pain, the more your defensive power will naturally strengthen."

Qiao Sang: "..."

How could I not know that!

Not giving up, Qiao Sang asked, "Is there any other way to train?"

Elma replied seriously, "This is the fastest way to enhance your defense. You know, Beast Tamers with Bond Evolution Pet Beasts are always the hardest to take down among their peers, and it’s for this reason."

The hardest to take down... Qiao Sang fell into deep thought.

Elma continued,

"You can also combine this with a regimen to strengthen bone density, and add a Tenacity Potion when soaking in a bath every day. Trust me, your defensive capability will definitely improve at an incredible rate."

"With daily training and use of potions, I think the first round of the curriculum could be finished in just 15 classes."

classes, coming every day would be 15 days... Qiao Sang pondered while enduring Stabbing Fist Boy’s punches.

She had to admit, she was tempted.

Though she had no pressing matters at the moment, time was precious, and saving a bit of it was good. With the extra time, she could do a lot of other things...

Gangbao had little real combat experience, and the training process would allow it to release skills and quickly increase proficiency. Moreover, as long as she could endure it, it would strengthen her defense, which was a win-win situation.

If she really suffered internal injuries, that would be a problem, but with Lubao around...

Qiao Sang gritted her teeth, "I got it, let’s do as you say."

Gangbao glanced at its Beast Tamer and its eyes seemed to say: Still have to take the hits hard.

Qiao Sang caught the meaning in Gangbao’s eyes, and she silently shifted her gaze, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Elma laughed, "Then let my smelly skunk fight with it."

Having said that, she was about to call the skunk to start.

Qiao Sang objected, "No need, my Spectral Ring Ghost can handle it."

Since it was all about training through combat, it was better to have Xiao Xunbao do it. She would be there to supervise Xiao Xunbao, who had recently been too indulged in computers, becoming rather too lazy, especially compared to Lubao.

So it’s called a Spectral Ring Ghost... Elma glanced at the Spectral-type Pet Beast whose species name she hadn’t known before and said,

"But the Steel Guard Sparrowhawk must fight a stronger Pet Beast to be effective."

"Xun Xun?!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xunbao was not pleased.

It stared with wide eyes, floated in front of Elma, and gesticulated indignantly.

Open your eyes wide and look! It’s stronger than number four!

Elma couldn’t understand the meaning behind Xiao Xunbao’s movements, but she knew that the Spectral-type Pet named Ghost Ring Specter was angry, so she cautiously took a step back.

Qiao Sang coughed:

"Ghost Ring Specter is a High Level Pet Beast."

A High Level Pet Beast? Elma was quite surprised as she glanced at the purple pet beast in front of her.

Such a small High Level Pet Beast?

"Xun Xun!"

Xiao Xunbao crossed its arms, turned its head to the side, and huffed coldly.

"I’m sorry." Elma apologized: "I didn’t know it was a High Level Pet Beast."

"It’s fine, it’s a Blue Star’s Pet Beast, it’s normal for you not to know," Qiao Sang said with a smile.

Elma was stunned.

A Blue Star’s Pet Beast?

Blue Star?!

"Stabbing Fist."

Just as Elma was lost in thought, Stabbing Fist Boy put down his fists and stopped boxing.

It was then that Elma came back to her senses and, realizing something, she checked the time and said:

"The hardening effect of the venom is about to wear off. You can take a break now, and then we will continue with the steps we started earlier."

"Alright." Qiao Sang said while moving her arms. She realized that the pain wasn’t that bad now that her skin wasn’t hard anymore, but there was still that soreness from being hit.

As she moved, she remembered Gangbao.

"You guys start," Qiao Sang said, then looked at Xiao Xunbao:

"Xiao Xunbao, just keep using Tile Splitting Attack."

Apart from the high-level skill Mind Headbutt, Tile Splitting Attack had the lowest proficiency among Xiao Xunbao’s attack skills. Using this move, Gangbao should be able to hold on for a while.

"Xun Xun."

Xiao Xunbao nodded, instantly forgot about the earlier incident, floated to the side, and called out to signal that they could start.

"Steel Guardian."

Gangbao moved in front of Xiao Xunbao and stood firm.

The next second, Xiao Xunbao lifted its claws, condensed a white energy blade that seemed almost tangible, and struck it upon Gangbao’s body.

Gangbao did not dodge.

It was aware of the purpose of this training.

Within her heart, Qiao Sang thought, "Damn, that hurts," but she bore the pain and did not cry out.

"Gangbao, this is combat training, you can still move around a bit," Qiao Sang said after enduring the pain.

There was a difference between getting hit in combat and just standing around taking hits.

The former not only trained defense but also strengthened other aspects, while the latter was purely about enduring the pain and reinforcing defense.

"Steel Guardian."

Gangbao instantly understood the meaning of its Beast Tamer, and its body turned into a shiny iron-gray color, resisting most of the force from Xiao Xunbao’s Tile Splitting Attack.

Qiao Sang felt a sense of satisfaction on the side.

At that moment, Elma looked over in shock:

"How did your Spectral-type Pet learn a Combat Series skill?"

Qiao Sang replied, "It just learned it by splitting tiles."

Is it that simple?! But isn’t it a Spectral Series Pet Beast?

Elma was somewhat perplexed.

Although all the Beast Tamers who come here belonged to the upper crust, and their pet beasts were no less exceptional, she had never seen a Spectral-type Pet Beast capable of learning Combat Series skills...

A Blue Star’s Spectral-type Pet Beast, and it can split tiles...

The latest form of Little Steel Falcon...

At that moment, Elma suddenly realized that the girl in front of her might belong to a rather special group even among the upper echelons.

An hour later, the training ended.

During that time, Qiao Sang went through the process of applying the venom three times.

Elma handed her a beautifully crafted tote bag:

"Inside there are seven bottles of fitness supplements and seven bottles of Tenacity Potion. The fitness supplements are for ingestion, and the Tenacity Potion is to be added to your bathwater. You use one bottle of each every day. Take these with you."

Qiao Sang took the bag and asked:

"How much?"

Elma smiled: "You’ve signed up for my class, so these costs are already included in the course fee. Just continue to choose my class when you come next time."

No wonder it’s the second most expensive... Qiao Sang accepted the bag: "Got it."
