Chapter 350: Qiao Sang VS Liu Zeru

Qiao Sang stood up, waved her hand to recall Little Xunbao, and had just taken a step toward the arena when He Datao beside her grabbed her arm.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Sang turned her head and asked.

He Datao gritted his teeth: "Let's wreck him!"

Qiao Sang was sitting in the front row, and her hearing was sharp, so she had naturally overheard what Liu Zeru had said to He Datao before the match.

The truth stung. It had been a whole day and he still hadn't let it go… Qiao Sang nodded: "Don't worry."

With that, she walked toward the arena.

He Datao's mood instantly lifted. In his view, if Qiao Sang sent out the Star Blazing Hound, crushing Liu Zeru would be as easy as crushing vegetables.

Xu Yixuan turned her head, looked at He Datao grinning with his mouth wide open, and couldn't help saying: "Don't celebrate too early. Winning is certain, but who beats who in the first round really isn't."

He Datao: "???"

He Datao couldn't help raising his voice: "Are you questioning our Qiao the Great's skill?!"

Xu Yixuan's mouth twitched. She didn't want to talk to this idiot anymore.

When Qiao Sang stepped onto the arena, the cameramen at every camera position instantly tensed up.

Five days!

A full five days!

Every time Qiao Sang appeared and summoned Bingluqiya, the livestream platform would crash immediately.

The technical staff had been replaced wave after wave.

"Should be fine this time, right?" a cameraman wearing an earpiece said worriedly, staring at the camera.

A staff member's voice came through the earpiece: "Don't worry. This time we hired an A-grade engineer from the headquarters to fix it. Guaranteed no problems."

The cameraman's mouth twitched: "That's exactly what you said yesterday."

The voice in the earpiece gave an awkward laugh and explained: "You don't know, the problem isn't on our end. We don't know how the Ancient Mist Region got the news, but they say a student here has a Bingluqiya. A massive number of users flooded in from over there, which caused access requests to seriously exceed the system's load."

"Our platform has already been upgraded to handle 1 million people watching online at the same time, but the Ancient Mist Region side is absolutely crazy. The moment Bingluqiya appears, users instantly exceed 1 million."

"Heh heh, but this time our platform has been upgraded to handle 10 million people, so rest easy. There absolutely won't be any more problems."

The cameraman let out a breath of relief: "That's good then."

He gave the girl on the arena a close-up shot.

The whistle sounded.

In the camera's view, the girl formed hand seals, and within the green star array, the pet beast that had kept them working overtime slowly appeared.

At the same moment, the voice in the earpiece suddenly roared: "What?! It crashed again?!"

…The cameraman blurted out: "Shit!"

On the arena.

Qiao Sang looked at the pet beast her opponent had sent out without the slightest surprise. She had studied Liu Zeru's match videos. The probability of his first pet beast being a Baobaoxiong was as high as 87%.

On the other side, Liu Zeru's expression was serious. Looking at the tiny pet beast before him, he didn't dare be careless.

A pet beast on the verge of extinction—this was his first time battling such a rare pet beast…

"Qu!"

At the referee's command, Lubao rapidly sprayed fine snow toward the ground, and the green-plant-covered arena instantly froze over with a layer of frost.

Immediately after, it pushed off powerfully with its forelegs and charged at full speed toward the Baobaoxiong's position across the frost.

With the ice's slipperiness, Lubao ran faster and faster.

"Rock Seal!" Liu Zeru said calmly.

The Baobaoxiong instantly gathered energy, clenched its right paw into a fist, and slammed it hard into the ground.

Sharp rocks abruptly burst from the frozen ground and kept surging forward, sending shards of ice scattering across the floor.

The rocks and broken ice didn't block Lubao's advance; instead, they became stepping stones for it.

Lubao leaped up, moving nimbly across the rocks and large chunks of broken ice. After a few twists and turns, it appeared right in front of the Baobaoxiong.

The audience erupted.

"What incredible speed!"

"Those evasion skills are insane!"

"Bingluqiya! Mommy loves you!"

"Daddy loves you too!"

"Pah! Taking advantage of me!"

"I haven't even said you're taking advantage of me yet!"

Liu Zeru's composure wasn't affected in the slightest. He watched the situation before him calmly.

At this moment, Lubao stepped on a large rock and leaped high, using its astonishing jumping power to soar directly above the Baobaoxiong.

Right then, its tail swept up a current of water.

Seeing this, Liu Zeru's eyes flashed and he gave no command.

The Baobaoxiong stood perfectly still, letting the water-wrapped tail slap against its head.

"Bam bam bam!"

Water Tail struck again and again, hitting the Baobaoxiong's body without pause.

The audience's initial cheers turned to worry.

"Oh my, why does this scene look so familiar…"

"This Baobaoxiong's defense is way too high. It's taken so many direct hits and still hasn't gone down."

"My heart aches. Bingluqiya's tail isn't going to get sore from all that whipping, is it…"

"Sigh, what do you do when you can't hurt it?"

"I bet the Furious Bear is about to use Furious Punch next."

On the field, Qiao Sang focused her attention on the Furious Bear.

With Lu Lu Lu's attack power, she couldn't break through the Furious Bear's defense for a while, but it didn't matter—the Furious Bear could break it itself!

"Furious Punch!"

"Now!"

Qiao Sang and Liu Zeru spoke at the same time.

Predicting the enemy's next move is the core essence of a beast master's battle, and Qiao Sang clearly had tremendous talent in this regard.

Terrifying energy gathered in the Furious Bear's clenched fist, then mercilessly punched toward Lu Lu Lu.

The astonishing power and explosive force made the fist fall with a peculiar sound, as if tearing through the air.

At the same moment, Lu Lu Lu quickly leapt onto the Furious Bear's body.

"Bang!

!"

Lu Lu Lu's figure vanished into thin air before everyone's eyes, and the Furious Bear's fist, brimming with terrifying energy, slammed into its own body in the direction Lu Lu Lu had leapt.

"Bao!

!"

The Furious Bear let out a miserable cry and crashed to the ground.

The instant it fell, Lu Lu Lu suddenly reappeared on the Furious Bear's body.

The spectator seats fell silent for a few seconds before erupting into deafening uproar.

"Holy crap! I didn't understand! What just happened?!"

"I get it now! I get it now! The Melt Water trait! It's the Melt Water trait!"

"Awesome! Making the Furious Bear hit itself—who even comes up with that?!"

"So the Water-Whip Tail strike on the Furious Bear was ostensibly an attack, but in reality it was just setting up for this moment?!"

"Exactly! Look at Qiao Sang's commands and the coordination with Ice Luqiya—it's obvious this was planned from the start!"

"Cool! So cool!"

"Wait, wait! Look, the Furious Bear is getting back up! Holy crap, look at its red eyes, its fury meter seems even higher!"

"Oh no, how could this be…"

"Ah, my Ice Luqiya!"

Watching the Furious Bear get back up, the spectator seats were filled with wails of despair.

Some moves, once used, become hard to use a second time once the opponent is prepared.

No beast master with half a brain would let their pet beast fall in the same place twice.

Facing a Furious Bear at maximum fury, the obviously squishy Ice Luqiya would surely faint in one hit.

On the field, Liu Zeru took a deep breath and said, "Qiao Sang, I admit you're strong, but this is where it ends."

Having said that, he shouted loudly, "Use your full power!"

"Bao!

!"

The Furious Bear roared toward the sky, its momentum growing stronger and stronger, as red fury energy rapidly gathered in its clenched right fist.

Bro, you're getting a bit carried away… Qiao Sang finished her inner吐槽 and said aloud, "Sing."

"Lu~ lululu~ lulu~ lululu~ lu~"

Hearing her beast master's command, Lu Lu Lu opened her mouth and sang.

Invisible sound waves rippled outward.

The red in the Furious Bear's eyes gradually faded, and its aura weakened.

"Bao…"

The Furious Bear showed a Tao Zui expression.

So nice to listen to, the world is so beautiful…

It really works… Qiao Sang felt a wave of calm inside and said gently, "Water Jet."

"Lu!"

Lu Lu Lu's entire body was instantly wrapped in water, shooting upward, then plunging downward, charging fiercely toward the Furious Bear.

It's attacking… Liu Zeru thought calmly.

His beast master's command to use full power still seemed to echo in its ears as the Furious Bear raised its fist… the next second, it was sent flying backward.

"Bao…"

So dizzy, I'll take a little nap first…

The Furious Bear peacefully closed its eyes.

"Qiu!"

The whistle signaling the end of the match sounded.

"Qiao Sang of Holy Water Middle School wins!"
