Chapter 1308: Half a Month Later

Yantian Class Xia Huo, 52 years old, has been an A-level pet owner for nine years... Qiao Sang recalled what Teacher Mikala said in her mind.

Immediately after, she remembered the scenes where the other party possessed others to talk to her several times when she was watching the competition.

"So it was you." Qiao Sang realized.

Although the other party's behavior of possessing others from time to time was quite scary, she had sent a bottle of King-level Energy Potion over later, so her impression of her wasn't that bad.

"Do you need Healing Light now?" Qiao Sang remembered the exchange condition for the King-level Energy Potion and asked.

"No need, but I might..." Xia Huo said while preparing to press the floor button.

However, when she saw the already lit button, she was stunned: "You are also going to the seventeenth floor?"

Qiao Sang said "Hmm," then thought of something, raised her eyebrows: "You are here to participate in the Master Challenge, right?"

"Yes." Xia Huo nodded: "What about you?"

Qiao Sang smiled: "I am also here to participate in the Master Challenge."

As soon as the words fell, with a "ding," the seventeenth floor arrived, and the elevator door opened.

Qiao Sang led Like Ya Bao and stepped out.

Xia Huo remained in place, her body stiff in the elevator, her expression dazed, her mind blank.

The elevator door closed slowly, and she seemed unable to perceive it, having no reaction.

Also here to participate in the Master Challenge?

What does that mean?

Isn't the Master Challenge only for A-level professional pet owners to sign up?

Isn't Qiao Sang from the Imperial Pet Academy a B-level pet owner?

Could it be that she has already become an A-level pet owner from a B-level pet owner?

No, absolutely impossible!

A B-level pet owner in her teens is the only one she has ever seen in her life, which is already outrageous enough; an A-level pet owner in her teens...

No, impossible...

Not much time has passed since she last saw Qiao Sang, how could she become an A-level pet owner in such a short time!

You know, besides contracting six pets, an A-level professional pet owner also needs two of the pets to be Imperial-level pets; even if the conditions for the registration assessment are met, adding the task assessment and battle assessment, it takes at least a year.

Speaking of which, when Qiao Sang battled at Yantian University, the pets she sent out were indeed Imperial-level pets...

But wasn't that because of the bond power temporarily evolving...

Fendi Duo... Besides that pet from the Super-Host Star, Qiao Sang seems to have a proper Imperial-level pet...

If that pet that temporarily evolved through bonds has already fully evolved, plus the Imperial-level pet Fendi Duo, she indeed meets the condition of two Imperial-level pets...

But in terms of brain domain... Is the other party's talent really perverted to this extent...

All kinds of thoughts popped into her mind in an instant.

Tan Country, Pet Alliance Tan Country branch, seventeenth floor, Audit Department... Xia Huo felt more and more shocked the more she thought about it.

The other party seems to have no need to lie to her, and appearing here at this time, and going to the seventeenth floor, besides the staff of the Pet Alliance branch, only the contestants who came for re-review...

No way...

Just as she was thinking, the elevator door opened, and a passerby walked in.

Xia Huo woke up as if from a dream and quickly pressed the seventeenth floor.

"Ding!"

Seventeenth floor, the elevator door opened, Xia Huo flew out of the cabin and went straight to the Audit Department.

The whole floor was very long, and there were quite a few people walking hurriedly toward a certain direction; from their attire, it was not hard to see that they were staff members.

Xia Huo came to the door of the Audit Department and found that everyone was standing outside, and some were even pressing their ears to the door.

"Are you here for the re-review?" One of the people pressing against the door straightened up, sized her up, and asked in a low voice.

Xia Huo said "Hmm."

"You can't go in now, someone is just having a re-review inside." After saying that, he pressed back against the door.

The door of the Audit Department was closed at this time.

The doors of various departments of the Pet Alliance branch have absolute soundproofing effects, but for Xia Huo, who is already an A-level professional pet owner, the soundproofing effect is the same as having none.

She stood outside the door and clearly heard the voices coming from inside.

"Oh my god, if you weren't standing in front of me now, I really wouldn't believe that there is an A-level professional pet owner of your age in the world!"

"It seems I still have too little experience, Blue Star actually produced a pet owner like you."

"Believe me, you don't even need to battle when you participate in the Master Challenge; just stand out and show your face, and you can become famous."

"Haha, how can it be that exaggerated." A voice that was still somewhat familiar rang out.

"What do you mean exaggerated, an 18-year-old A-level professional pet owner, you ask them, which one of them has seen it, let alone seen it, which one of them has heard of it."

Xia Huo's head buzzed again, thinking to herself, "It's all true! Qiao Sang really became an A-level professional pet owner!"

Clearly an A-level pet owner with amazing five senses, but she felt she couldn't hear the dialogue in the office clearly anymore.

Waiting for the office door to open, the people around suddenly gave way, and Xia Huo had the feeling of being able to think again.

Why are there suddenly so many people... Qiao Sang looked at the pile of people standing outside, was stunned for a moment, and then she saw a familiar figure, ignored the gazes around her like looking at a rare pet, came to the other party, and smiled:

"If you need Healing Light, come to me anytime. Forgot to say, I'm actually also looking forward to being able to compete on the same field as you."

... Xia Huo's expression was complex, and she was silent for a long time.

To be honest, she did want to compete on the same field as the other party; after all, she was the B-level pet owner with the highest talent and the youngest she had ever seen, but the time she anticipated was about ten years.

She never expected that in just a few months, the other party would become an A-level professional pet owner and participate in the Master Challenge, and she would appear on the same field as her immediately...

Too fantasy, as if she had been hypnotized by a pet...

Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Qiao Sang didn't wait and led Like Ya Bao straight toward the elevator.

After the figure disappeared, the people around immediately surrounded Xia Huo, asking excitedly one after another:

"Do you know the pet owner just now?"

"Are you also from Blue Star?"

"When did she become an A-level professional pet owner?"

"Are you her friend? Could she meditate since she had memories?"

"Knowing her, will you feel a lot of pressure?"

Xia Huo took a deep breath, pushed away the people around, and smiled politely:

"Sorry, I'm here for the re-review."

After saying that, she stepped into the Audit Department.

Eight o'clock in the evening, in the open space outside the villa.

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Explosive sounds rang out one after another, and shockwaves of different colors swept in all directions.

Like Ya Bao and the others were in groups of two, conducting battle training.

"Super Xunxun!"

High in the air, Little Xiao Xunbao, who was applying a facial mask, shouted at Little Tingbao, indicating a pause.

Then it drilled into a black hole that appeared out of thin air.

At the same time, a black hole appeared out of thin air beside Lu Bao.

Seeing this, Lu Bao stopped its attack.

"Qingqing."

Seeing Qingbao appeared on the side, looked at the black hole, revealed a "so troublesome" expression, and also stopped its movement.

"Super Xunxun~"

Little Xiao Xunbao drilled out from the black hole, took off the facial mask on its face, grinned and called out to Lu Bao, and then drilled into the black hole again, appeared opposite Little Tingbao, and continued the battle.

"Qingqing." 【1308-8

"Xun xun~"

Little Treasure Hunter reached out a claw to wipe its wet face, then took off its ring, pulled out a new face mask from inside, applied it, let out a cry, dived back into the black hole, appeared opposite Ting Bao, and continued the battle.

"Qing qing."

Qing Bao couldn't help but complain.

No matter how many face masks it applied, it was still this dark.

"Ice Emperor."

Lu Bao was not interested in how many face masks Little Treasure Hunter applied; it called out calmly, signaling for them to continue.

"Qing qing."

Qing Bao nodded and vanished, turning into wind.

Qiao Sang sat a hundred meters away from the battle center, holding her phone and checking the items in the point redemption section of the campus website.

Suddenly, she heard a sound and looked up.

She saw a small bird-type pet beast passing overhead.

Her eyesight was amazing; she clearly saw a person sitting on the bird-type pet beast, and this person was holding camera equipment, aiming it at the direction where Ya Bao and the others were training below.

This is... Qiao Sang frowned slightly.

Could they have come specifically to film?

Normal passersby riding flying-type pet beasts would usually be scared off by the explosive commotion and immediately change routes, but this person not only didn't change routes, but there were also no defensive measures set up around them, and they were even holding a camera to take pictures, just like a paparazzi...

As she was thinking this, another yellow pet beast emerged from the ground in the distance, holding a camera aimed at the direction where Ya Bao and the others were training.

Qiao Sang: "..."

It was definitely paparazzi...

Mikala, who was on the side, also saw this scene and said calmly:

"It seems you have already been noticed."

Qiao Sang said helplessly: "This attention is coming too fast. I only went out today to finish the review."

"There are many channels for gathering information now. As long as you pass the review, those who have the ability to know will basically find out very quickly," Mikala said. "Becoming an A-rank professional Beast Tamer at your age is unprecedented. Everyone will definitely be able to notice you among the many contestants at the first opportunity."

"In a few more days, I'm afraid there will be more and more people coming to sneak photos."

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment and said: "Will all of Ya Bao and the others' skills be known by then..."

She still remembered a highly popular Beast Tamer who participated in an international beast-taming battle competition. As a result, two days before the competition, a post was released containing videos of all the skills that the Beast Tamer's pet beasts were training in, including some skills that even fans didn't know about.

By the time the competition ended, this Beast Tamer's pet beasts hadn't used any skills outside of the videos, which meant their bottom line had been completely exposed before the competition.

A capable Beast Tamer shouldn't be afraid of their trump cards being known.

If she had absolute strength, she wouldn't be afraid of Ya Bao and the others' skills being dug up in advance. Ya Bao and the others had numerous skills, and even if they were all known, with their strength, they could still beat those they could beat.

But she couldn't claim to have absolute strength in the Master Challenge Cup. She didn't have much confidence in entering the top three to begin with. If everything were known in advance, the difficulty of her future battles would likely become even harder.

After all, those competing together were all A-rank professional Beast Tamers with rich experience.

She had originally thought that by choosing this location, Teacher Mikala could ensure her privacy and allow her to train quietly, but she didn't expect people and pet beasts to come and sneak photos so quickly...

As these thoughts flashed through her mind, Mikala smiled: "With me here, what are you afraid of?"

After speaking, she glanced at Penjiami and said: "Mirror Realm."

"Pen pen."

Penjiami called out, then looked up, its eyes glowing with blue light.

The next second, the entire sky was shrouded in a barrier resembling a mirror surface.

Immediately after, the feeling of the mirror surface disappeared.

The person filming high in the sky and the pet beast filming on the ground turned confused.

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up as she looked at Penjiami and said in surprise: "Meimei can also use Mirror Realm?"

Mirror Realm, a super-tier Psychic-type skill. After using this skill, the people and pet beasts inside are not affected, while those isolated outside the realm will not see the scene inside. Even if they pass through the Mirror Realm, what they see is only a mirror image of a certain scene, not the real world, yet it looks as if it were the real world.

If the proficiency is high enough, it can also trap the target in the Mirror Realm forever, making them lose themselves.

"Pen pen."

Penjiami nodded.

"It's a skill learned specifically to prevent others from getting close," Mikala said. "In the future, there will be more and more places where this skill is needed."

The more famous a Beast Tamer is, the more people like to pry into their privacy and take sneak photos. With numerous pet beast skills, they have all sorts of ways to choose to get close.

In this situation, only this type of skill can solve the problem once and for all.

While they were talking, the pet beast that had emerged from the ground holding a camera suddenly jumped out of the ground, showing a confused expression, and ran forward quickly, passing through the mirror barrier.

However, the moment it passed through the barrier, it disappeared from Qiao Sang's sight.

Not long after, it appeared outside the barrier on the other side, looking left and right, looking completely bewildered.

The person sitting on the flying-type pet beast high in the sky realized something was wrong and commanded the flying-type pet beast to turn around and leave.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang's eyes lit up:

"This skill is so practical!"

Mikala smiled and said: "You don't need to worry about outside interference. Just focus on training from now on. I will give you the data on the other contestants after all the participants are confirmed."

"Understood," Qiao Sang said earnestly.

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

In the city at night, the virtual screens on every high-rise building were playing the same promotional video.

"This is a legendary tournament. In this desert land, we will welcome the most talented A-rank professional Beast Tamers from every planet. Each of them is full of legendary color, having become great A-rank professional Beast Tamers at the age of less than 70."

"Laifide, Taya, Serana, Kali... Qiao Sang... the experiences of every contestant are worth writing down."

"And we will witness here how they write their next page."

"Master Challenge Cup, half a month later, looking forward to everyone watching."
