Chapter 568: Did it learn it?
The operation mode of energy changed, and the air blades that were originally going to be released could not be cast.
The yellow lightning was close at hand.
Just when the lightning was only about ten centimeters away from Gangbao, Little Xunbao's short toe hooked outward, the Thunder-Hair Dog's body leaned backward, four feet facing the sky, and the yellow lightning drew a perfect arc upward, barely avoiding Gangbao.
"Steel Steel..."
Gangbao looked up, staring blankly at Little Xunbao in the high air.
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao noticed Gangbao's gaze and grinned at it.
"Steel Steel!"
Gangbao suddenly understood what a team battle was at this moment. It regained its serious expression, circulated energy, and released air blades one after another toward the bound Thunder-Hair Dog.
"Bang bang bang!"
Under a series of bombardments, the Thunder-Hair Dog screamed continuously, and finally closed its eyes unwillingly.
Applause rang out in the audience stands.
Everyone was not surprised by this result.
From the beginning before the match, they had guessed this situation.
It's just that later the Little Steel Falcon was implicated by the Ghost Ring Ghost's attack, making them feel that Du Silan might be able to take the Little Steel Falcon away before losing.
But even so, they didn't think Du Silan could win.
The combination of the Ghost Ring Ghost and the Little Steel Falcon, the core lies in the Ghost Ring Ghost's control. As long as it can be contained, it would make people think about the possibility of another ending.
But the Ghost Ring Ghost has psychic-type attributes, not only knows Teleport but also Space Move, and is a ghost-type pet beast itself, so its whereabouts are simply difficult to grasp. It is simply a fantasy for two pet beasts of a lower level than it to want to contain it.
Little Xunbao on the field heard everyone's applause, suddenly thought of something, supported its forehead with its claw, looking weak as if its energy was exhausted, and floated to the ground slowly.
"Steel Steel..."
Gangbao saw Little Xunbao's appearance, and seemed to have thought of something too. Its body staggered, covering its chest with its wings, as if the aftermath of being injured in the match just now appeared now.
The match is over and you're still doing this... This acting is too exaggerated... Gangbao's acting wasn't like this before... Could it be assimilated by Little Xunbao... Qiao Sang's mouth twitched, silently shifting her gaze, a bit unbearable to look at.
An hour later, all matches ended, and the top nine list was released.
The principal of Saher School walked to the center of the field. He didn't exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point:
"We will select one player for the next round of byes. Now please come to the field, the nine players who just won."
Is it drawing lots... Qiao Sang's eyes lit up, and hope ignited in her heart.
She stood up, preparing to walk to the field.
At this time, Maiji turned his head and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, the person with the bye is definitely you."
"I think so too."
"Just going through the motions, but I really want to know how they operate the quota."
Xiulis and the others on the side echoed with a smile.
Qiao Sang: "..."
Influenced by the language, Qiao Sang walked to the field with a not-so-beautiful mood.
After the nine people stood still on the field, the principal clapped his palms.
Nine bird-type pet beasts whose feathers were generally yellow and whose mouths were bulging, as if they were a net bag, flew over from the end of the other side of the field and stood side by side in front of the nine of them.
"Each of you chooses a Pocket-Bag Bird. One of the Pocket-Bag Birds will have a note written with 'Bye' in its mouth. Whoever chooses it will have a bye." The principal smiled.
Hearing this, Qiao Sang's eyes lit up again.
This selection method seems quite fair, with no room for dark box operations!
The other eight people glanced at
In the spectator stands, the crowd watched the arena and began to complain one after another.
"I bet the person who got the bye was already pre-determined to be Qiao Sang from Sainan High School. Why go through all this trouble? It's a waste of time."
"It's enough that we all know it in our hearts; we still have to go through the motions on the surface."
"Qiao Sang should just get the bye; otherwise, whoever faces her is just unlucky."
"I'm not questioning Qiao Sang's strength, I just think they should have announced it directly. Why bring over a few Pouch Birds? Everyone knows that every Pouch Bird actually has a slip of paper in its mouth. If it's not the pre-arranged target being selected, they'll just press the slip under their tongues."
"Qiao Sang doesn't seem to know about it."
"She definitely doesn't know; she's from Blue Star."
On the field, Qiao Sang's attention was entirely focused on the nine Pouch Birds in front of her, automatically filtering out the voices around her. She scrutinized the nine Pouch Birds before her with extreme caution, trying to observe any differences between them.
The order for choosing the Pouch Birds followed the order of today's matches.
Qiao Sang was the third.
The two people before her didn't even think about it and directly chose the ones in front of them.
When it was Qiao Sang's turn, she looked at the remaining six, then thought of something, looked down at Like Ya Bao in her arms, and asked:
"Which one do you think is best to choose?"
"Yaya!"
Like Ya Bao put on a look of serious thought, then pointed very firmly at a Pouch Bird in front of it and let out a cry.
Choose that one!
Looks like I can't choose that one... For the sake of safety, Qiao Sang asked again:
"What about besides this one?"
Like Ya Bao didn't suspect its Tamer's intentions at all and began to think seriously again.
After about three seconds, Like Ya Bao pointed to the Pouch Bird on the very edge.
"Yaya!"
Then that one!
Hmm, can't choose that one either... Qiao Sang thought to herself.
After letting Like Ya Bao choose five Pouch Birds in a row like this, Qiao Sang pointed to the last Pouch Bird that Like Ya Bao hadn't chosen and said:
"That's the one!"
"Ya..."
At this moment, Like Ya Bao wore a confused expression.
The crowd was a bit bewildered by Qiao Sang's maneuver and curiously looked at the Star-Chasing Dog that no Super Star had.
Could it be that this pet beast has some special sensing trait?
On the field, Qiao Sang looked expectantly at the Pouch Bird that Like Ya Bao hadn't chosen.
Under her gaze, the Pouch Bird slowly opened its mouth, revealing a slip of paper.
On it were written four characters:
【Congratulations on the bye】
Qiao Sang fell silent.
She never expected that Like Ya Bao's choice would actually be correct...
"It seems the target for this round's bye has appeared," the principal of Sahel School laughed:
"Let us congratulate Qiao Sang from Sainan High School."
"Clap, clap, clap..."
The crowd applauded.
6:00 PM.
Qiao Sang returned to her hotel room feeling extremely exhausted, closed the door, lay on the large bed, and stared at the ceiling with her thoughts drifting.
Thinking on the bright side, she came here to participate in the friendly match for the points; discovering the points was just an accident. As long as the primary goal could be completed, it wasn't a wasted trip... Gangbao just got one point less, and it's not like there won't be opportunities for team battles in the future... By the way, I wonder if the points for that Rolling Leopard were added to Gangbao... Thinking of this, Qiao Sang closed her eyes, and her consciousness entered the Beast Taming Codex.
The pages flipped, and she quickly arrived at the page related to Gangbao.
Qiao Sang looked directly at the last line.
【Points: 360】
It only added 80; it seems the points for the Rolling Leopard weren't counted... Qiao Sang sighed and casually glanced upward.
Suddenly, she froze.
Wait, what did I just see... Qiao Sang widened her eyes in disbelief, staring fixedly at the extra line of information in the skill bar.
【Air Absorption (Entry 1/100) +】
Air Absorption?
Gangbao learned Air Absorption?!
When did this happen?
How come I don't know?!
Qiao Sang opened her eyes abruptly, her consciousness returned, and she looked at Gangbao, who was practicing Inner Suspension.
"When did you learn Air Absorption?" Qiao Sang asked, her face full of surprise.
"Gang gang?"
Gangbao wore a hesitant expression.
Did it learn it?
How come it didn't know?
Qiao Sang: "???"
PS: Ah! Thanks to the Guild Leader Xue Yue Hua Shi! I never expected that someone would be willing to become a Guild Leader with my update volume. I'm so moved!
