Inherited Skills are moves passed down from their parents and do not require learned experience. Flame Tooth is the ultimate move that most Fire-Toothed Dogs inherit.
Although inherited skills are innate, don't expect a newborn pup to be able to use them right away; there's a process of gradual progression to everything.
Humans are born with the ability to eat, but they start by growing teeth and drinking milk.
Skill proficiency begins at the beginner level, with the next stage being mastery.
Skills at the beginner level have low power since they've only been mastered recently.
Low-level skills generally reach beginner proficiency to be used, but higher-level skills might not be usable every time even at the beginner level due to insufficient mastery.
Flame Tooth is an intermediate-level skill and, by all accounts, the Fire-Toothed Dog's Flame Tooth, at the beginner level (2/100), shouldn't be so easily executed.
But it was.
Qiao Sang speculated whether the Beast Taming Codex's display of the Fire-Toothed Dog's skill meant it could be executed.
Of course, all of this was her speculation; it would have to wait until the Fire-Toothed Dog learned a higher-level skill to be verified.
Qiao Sang exited her thoughts, and although she wanted to study the issue of points further, now clearly wasn't the time.
She saw that rascal still sitting on the ground, the Desert Tail Fox covered in wounds, its neck still bleeding.
Qiao Sang took out her phone and dialed 661.
"Hello, is this the Beast Tamer Emergency Center? I'm at the Hangkang Beast Taming Center, there's an injured Desert Tail Fox here, could you please come quickly?"
"Someone's already called? Oh, then never mind."
Qiao Sang hung up the phone, ignoring the stupefied girl across from her, picked up the Fire-Toothed Dog, and prepared to head home. Turning around, she realized a group of people was standing behind her.
The essence of humanity is the love for excitement; just in the short time of the fight, most of the people from the area had gathered, some even holding up their phones and recording.
Qiao Sang felt a tingling on her scalp, picked up the Fire-Toothed Dog, and left, with a plump pigeon following closely behind.
"Little sister, you seem to have potential, would you be interested in becoming a live broadcaster?" A youth with dyed red hair approached her.
"Thank you, no interest," Qiao Sang circumvented him.
"Can I challenge you to a pet beast battle?" A boy wearing a hat caught up with her.
"No," Qiao Sang declined.
"Student, which school do you belong to?" An aunt asked with concern from the side.
Qiao Sang: "..."
...
...
When Qiao Sang got home, her mother was absent, yet sitting on the dining table was a bag of Red Luan Fruits, specially favored by fire attribute creatures.
Such fruit, capable of enhancing the physic of fire element extraordinary creatures, cost 700 Alliance Currency per piece, and while it was fine to eat them occasionally, eating them daily was definitely not affordable.
Qiao Sang stared at the Red Luan Fruit, lost in thought for a moment.
She picked up one and held it to the Fire-Toothed Dog's mouth, smiling, "Here, you eat."
The Fire-Toothed Dog sniffed the fruit; all it had eaten at the Pet Beast Base were standardized compressed blocks, it had never tried this before.
It smelled good and looked quite similar to the fruit from the tree next to where it used to live, only differing in color. Unfortunately, it never had the chance to eat the fruit from that tree.
No longer hesitating, the Fire-Toothed Dog swallowed the Red Luan Fruit in one bite.
"Fang!"
The Fire-Toothed Dog's eyes widened with surprise.
This food was delicious!
Seeing it had finished eating, Qiao Sang's consciousness entered the Beast Taming Codex.
[Name: Fire-Toothed Dog]
[Attribute: Fire]
[Level: Beginner (63/1000) +]
[Skills: Bite (Beginner 73/100) +, Charge (Mastery 135/500) +, Flame Tooth (Beginner 2/100) +]
[Points 50]
Nothing had changed.
Qiao Sang frowned, for this should not be the case. The values had all changed after today's battle, indicating that the Fire-Toothed Dog was making progress.
Eating a Red Luan Fruit, which could enhance the physique of fire element extraordinary creatures, shouldn't produce no reaction.
Was it that she had to wait for digestion?
"Fang!"
The Fire-Toothed Dog stretched out a paw and tugged at Qiao Sang's hand.
Qiao Sang smiled, took out another Red Luan Fruit, and fed it to the dog.
The Fire-Toothed Dog immediately swallowed it down.
After it finished eating, Qiao Sang once again connected her consciousness to the Beast Taming Codex.
[Name: Fire-Toothed Dog]
[Attribute: Fire]
[Level: Beginner (64/1000)+]
[Skills: Bite Hold (Beginner 73/100)+, Fierce Collision (Proficient 135/500)+, Flame Tooth (Beginner 2/100)+]
[Points: 50]
It's changed!
The level entry had changed from Beginner (63/1000)+ to Beginner (64/1000)+!
Though it was only one point, it proved her guess was correct!
However...
Qiao Sang looked at the remaining four Red Luan Fruits on the dining table, hesitating for a second before picking up another and handing it to the Fire-Toothed Dog.
The Fire-Toothed Dog held the Red Luan Fruit with its front paws and began to nibble.
It had already eaten two, and it couldn't swallow the third one in one gulp anymore; it had to eat it bite by bite.
Once it finished, it patted its belly contentedly.
Qiao Sang connected her consciousness to the Beast Taming Codex, falling into deep thought.
The value hadn't changed.
Could it be that it takes two Red Luan Fruits to increase one point?
Qiao Sang picked up another Red Luan Fruit and handed it over.
"Tooth."
The Fire-Toothed Dog patted its belly, indicating that it was full.
"Good boy, just one last one," Qiao Sang stroked its head.
The Fire-Toothed Dog looked at Qiao Sang, waggled its red tail, and began to eat.
In the Beast Taming Codex, Qiao Sang saw that the Fire-Toothed Dog's level had changed to Beginner (65/1000)+.
Her guess was right; indeed, two Red Luan Fruits increased the value by one point.
Qiao Sang's gaze moved to the point total at the bottom, and with a thought, she added them all to the end of the Beginner (65/1000)+.
[Name: Fire-Toothed Dog]
[Attribute: Fire]
[Level: Beginner (115/1000)+]
[Skills: Bite Hold (Beginner 73/100)+, Fierce Collision (Proficient 135/500)+, Flame Tooth (Beginner 2/100)+]
[Points: 0]
The value really could be increased...
Qiao Sang's breathing became hurried.
A Red Luan Fruit costs 700 Alliance Currency, so two Red Luan Fruits would be 1400 Alliance Currency.
1400 Alliance Currency for just one point, with 885 points left, equals 1770 Red Luan Fruits.
That would be...
1,239,000 Alliance Currency...
My goodness! That could buy a Psychic Beast!
Qiao Sang almost cried out in excitement.
This means she could directly increase the power and save so much money! And the Fire-Toothed Dog could increase the corresponding value whether it was fighting or consuming strength-enhancing substances!
With the addition of the points, she could completely take three to four times less time to nurture the Fire-Toothed Dog into a mid-level Pet Beast than others!
If this wasn't a Golden Finger, what was!
After a few seconds, Qiao Sang took out her phone and searched for all the topics about the Beast Taming Codex; as expected, none mentioned a situation like hers.
Autonomous awakeners only have their brain areas developed 3% to 6% higher than postnatal awakeners and can awaken the Beast Taming Codex for a second time faster, with more hope of reaching higher realms, but nothing else particularly special.
Qiao Sang calmed down.
She already had a hunch and now it was just confirming that she wasn't wrong. Besides, she had transmigrated, so possessing a Golden Finger wasn't that strange.
Right.
Nothing special...
The Fire-Toothed Dog looked up at Qiao Sang, its eyes filled with confusion.
Why was its Beast Tamer grinning at thin air?
