Chapter 404: Qiao Sang VS Zhang Xueming
Third day of the divisional qualifiers.
Sea City Pet Beast Battle Arena.
"Friends! This is the scene of the National Campus League divisional qualifiers! We meet again!" Yi Ao held the microphone in mid-air and said loudly: "Did everyone sleep well last night!"
"Good!"
"Not good!"
The audience responded enthusiastically.
Contestant area.
Xu Yixuan, who had successfully entered the points match, was in a very good mood. She looked at the audience stands filled with people and sighed:
"It's too exaggerated, there were basically no people the first two days, but as soon as you were on the field, it was full."
This wasn't an arena for a few thousand people, but an audience stand that could hold eighty thousand people!
"Everyone is here to see Lubao." Qiao Sang smiled.
Hearing this, Xu Yixuan paused, as if thinking of something, and asked: "Do we count as friends?"
"Yes." Qiao Sang asked suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
"Then I'll ask you for a favor." Xu Yixuan said.
Qiao Sang was defensive: "Say what it is first."
Xu Yixuan leaned close and whispered: "If we battle in the points match, can you not send out Ice Luqiya?"
Qiao Sang: "... Okay."
There were a total of 144 contestants in the divisional qualifiers in the Ancient Mist Region.
After the elimination round, there were 72 people left.
According to the points match rules, everyone would initially be divided into 8 groups, with 9 people in each group.
After this round of points matches, the first-place contestant in each group would directly advance, locking in a spot for the national competition.
And the contestants in the bottom three of each group would also be eliminated at this stage.
The remaining 5 people in each group would be regrouped to select the contestants ranked in the top 32 in points.
The 8 contestants who advanced in the first round would compete in the final stage to select the top eight in the divisional qualifiers.
After two days of competition, the elimination round had all ended.
Although there were 72 matches in the elimination round, the divisional qualifiers had three time slots: morning, afternoon, and evening, so two days were enough.
"Next will be the group list for the first round of points matches!" Yi Ao said loudly: "Everyone, please look ahead!"
In an instant, enlarged holographic photos of all the advancing contestants appeared on the field.
The people in the contestant area silently covered their faces, unable to bear looking directly at them.
The photos were shuffled rapidly, and after more than ten seconds, they settled.
Qiao Sang's gaze swept across rapidly, and she soon saw the group she was assigned to.
【Group B: Yuhua Region, Qiao Sang】
【Ancient Mist Region, Chen Ye】
【Xilü Region, Guan Shuyi】
【Lianke Region, Li Hua】
【Xilü Region, Bai Binbin】
【...】
【Lianke Region, Xu Tong】
【Lianke Region, Zhang Xueming】
Bai Binbin, Zhang Xueming... Seeing these two familiar names, Qiao Sang quickly took out her phone and opened her memo.
【Bai Binbin, Xilü Region, E-tier Beast Tamer】
【Note: One high-tier pet beast, Super Evil Tail Scorpion, is a dual-attribute pet beast of Dark and Poison types, fierce temperament, both the hook claws and tail can release highly toxic poison, the hook claws on both arms have the destructive power to tear a car into scrap metal, even without using poison, it can suppress opponents with strength】
【High-tier skills: Dark Pulse, Poison Bomb, suspected to be minor achievement】
【Characteristic: Sniper, pet beasts with this characteristic give greater damage when attacking the opponent's vital points than in normal situations】
【Characteristic: Poison Point, when using contact-type skills to attack a pet beast with this characteristic, there is a 30% chance of being poisoned】
【One intermediate Normal-type pet beast, Sickle Mongoose, agile, sharp claws are its strongest weapon】
【Characteristic: Poison Boost, pet beasts with this characteristic have their attack power increased when in a poisoned state】
Qiao Sang slid the screen.
【Lianke Region, Zhang Xueming, E-tier Beast Tamer】
【Note: One high-tier Ice-type pet beast, Ice Sea Lion, the thick fat on its body can not only resist cold but also reflect enemy attacks】
【High-tier skills: Blizzard, Body Slam】
【Characteristic: Oblivious, pet beasts with this characteristic will not be affected by infatuation and taunt, and will not react to intimidation】
【One intermediate Fairy-type pet beast, Maze-Maze Spirit, fragile, infatuation skill proficiency seems very high】
【Characteristic: Super Luck, possessing this characteristic makes it easy to hit the opponent's vital points when attacking】
It seems the biggest opponents in the points match are Bai Binbin and Zhang Xueming... Qiao Sang read their data and patiently finished reading the remaining 6 contestants.
Although the system grouping is random, the backend still has some instructions, for example, each group must have 2 to 3 contestants who possess high-tier pet beasts.
This is also to ensure the fairness of the grouping, avoiding a situation where a contestant with only an intermediate pet beast enters the top eight.
Xu Yixuan entered Group E. She checked the contestants in the same group who only had intermediate pet beasts.
There are contestants with high-tier pet beasts in every group, so don't even think about directly becoming the first in the group to advance to the national competition.
However, as long as she ensures she is in the top 6 of the group, there is still a possibility of entering the national competition.
The first round of points matches in the divisional qualifiers officially kicked off.
As one match after another began, discussions arose in the audience.
"What is this pet beast called? It looks so big, but its speed is actually so fast."
"Seems to be called Two-Headed Brown Bear, although its body is big, you see how developed the leg muscles are."
"This contestant named Zhang Chu is quite interesting, relying on two Bug-type pet beasts to win the match."
"Why are you discriminating against pet beasts? There are no useless attributes, only useless Beast Tamers."
"You can't say it like that, Bug-type pet beasts basically have fast growth in the early stage, but the upper limit isn't good, and they can't compare to others in the later stage. They only have a chance to kill randomly at this stage."
"How come this pet beast looks so much like Virtual-Reality Grass?"
"It's the evolved form of Virtual-Reality Grass, Giant-Sincerity Grass."
"I'm looking at you with new eyes! I couldn't tell you, a poor student, knew about the evolved forms of pet beasts from other regions."
"Hey, I'd rather not know it. My ex-girlfriend suddenly rented a Giant-Sincerity Grass, and then we broke up."
"Tsk."
95% of the audience present were from the Ancient Mist Region. Although most of the audience didn't have much interest in the competition, they still had a lot of interest in discussing pet beasts from other regions.
Time passed bit by bit, and Qiao Sang also started today's battle.
The passionate BGM sounded at the right time.
When Yi Ao excitedly finished announcing the contestants who were about to take the stage.
Blue light and white light struck down in the contestant area simultaneously.
Looking at the contestants who suddenly appeared on the field, the whole arena cheered like thunder.
The audience and contestants from other regions were no longer as bewildered as they were on the first day.
The significance of Ice Luqiya to the Ancient Mist Region didn't need to be specifically understood.
After the first day of the competition ended, various information about Ice Luqiya occupied the major headlines of the Ancient Mist Region, and it was difficult for them not to know.
"Ice Luqiya! Ice Luqiya!"
"I asked the Calculation Pig to calculate it yesterday, today Qiao Sang will definitely send out Ice Luqiya!"
"Then it's stable, brother!"
"Qiao Sang! I love you! Let me see Ice Luqiya!"
"Everyone be rational! Qiao Sang's opponent in this match is Zhang Xueming, she has a high-tier pet beast, what if Ice Luqiya gets hurt when summoned!"
Amidst the intense shouting of the crowd, Lubao and Maze-Maze Spirit appeared on the field.
This time, Qiao Sang wasn't influenced by the audience, but because she had collected intelligence—Maze-Maze Spirit is female. ===== CHAPTER 405 =====
