Chapter 663: Negative Energy Collection Competition

~14 min read 2,619 words

After finishing the card application and returning to the newly rented villa, Qiao Sang summoned Like Ya Bao for the first time and took a bottle of fitness supplement for the second time.

Uh, the taste isn't very good... Qiao Sang felt it and found that the flesh under her skin seemed to be jumping.

At this moment, she suddenly realized a very serious problem.

If she practices like this, won't she be covered in muscles?

Qiao Sang imagined the picture of herself with six-pack abs plus upper and lower limb muscles and couldn't help but shiver.

She took out her phone and immediately sent a message to the coach who had just helped her train:

【If I practice like this, will I have six-pack abs?】

The other party didn't reply immediately.

Qiao Sang browsed her phone and found that the Vice Principal had sent her three messages.

【I just woke up.】

【First district? You are already in the first district?】

【I will arrive in about ten days.】

About ten days, feels so fast... Qiao Sang typed:

【Um, I just rented a room here today.】

The Vice Principal replied in seconds:

【I heard that the first district of Super Star is the most prosperous and has many competition projects suitable for Psychic-type pet beasts. Your Liaoxingquan and Ghost Ring Ghost both have Psychic attributes. You can take them to see. There are many ways to use Psychic-type skills, you can learn them.】

Psychic-type skills? Qiao Sang pondered for a while and felt that she could go see them if she had the chance.

Although Like Ya Bao is clearly Fire-type now, it is precisely because of this that skills of other attributes can often be used as surprise moves, just like Xiaoxunbao's Tile Split.

As for Xiaox

【Sanyoumu: I understand.】

After Qiao Sang sent it, she suddenly thought of something, her gaze shifting down, freezing on the three characters "Liaoxingquan" sent by the vice principal.

Uh, she seemed to have forgotten to tell the vice principal about Like Ya Bao's evolution...

Qiao Sang reflected for a moment and began to type:

【Sanyoumu: Vice principal, I want to tell you something.】

【Vice principal: What?】

【Sanyoumu: My Liaoxingquan has evolved.】

【Vice principal:???】

Qiao Sang was about to type when, in the next second, several messages came through from the other side.

【Vice principal: Is there some festival in Chaosu Xing today?】

【Vice principal: Or are you playing some game right now?】

【Vice principal: It's been a while, you've become much more humorous.】

【Vice principal:... Are you serious about what you just said?】

Liu Yao was staring fixedly at his phone screen at this moment.

Reason told him that it was simply impossible for a high-tier pet beast to evolve into a general-tier pet beast within half a year, let alone a pet beast of a brand-new form whose evolution path for the next stage was unknown.

But the person who said this was Qiao Sang.

That genius beast tamer who could not be understood by common sense at all.

This made his inner heart waver involuntarily.

What if it's true... Just as various thoughts were popping up in Liu Yao's mind, Qiao Sang took a photo of Like Ya Bao's current appearance and sent it over.

The chat interface instantly went quiet.

Two minutes later.

【Sanyoumu: This is what the Liaoxingquan looks like after evolution. I've already registered the information at the Beast Taming Center. The name is Yanqilu, and the pet beast identifier should be able to find it now.】

【Sanyoumu: Vice principal?】

【Sanyoumu:?】

Strange, why is he ignoring me... Could it be that the starship passed by some location and the signal is bad... Qiao Sang exited the chat interface with the vice principal, just about to contact the coach again, when she suddenly saw everyone in the "Shengshui Grade 10 (1) Class Group" chatting about the final exams.

【He Jueming: I didn't do well on the exam this time, ranked 11th in the grade.】

【Zhou Zhizhi: Me too, I actually didn't get a perfect score in Pet Beasts and Nature this time.】

【Chen Ya: You guys stop talking, how am I supposed to live ranked 29th in the grade?】

【Gu Fei: It's better to be a specialty student. Like Wang Jihang, he ranked 233rd in the grade, and his dad actually wants to reward him with a trip to another region.】

【Wang Jihang: Specialty students have it the hardest, okay! He's taking me to another region because he wants me to get more familiar with pet beasts from other regions to prepare for future competitions, not just to take me out to play.】

While they were chatting, Qiao Sang chimed in:

【I also think specialty students have it pretty hard. Most of the time is spent on training, so grades can't keep up. Sometimes I can't even understand the lessons.】

The group suddenly went quiet, as if everyone had been muted.

Sigh, it really has become distant. As soon as I popped up, no one spoke anymore... Qiao Sang sighed in her heart.

At this moment, people in the group suddenly started popping up one after another, like a screen flood, all @-ing her.

【Wang Jihang: @Qiao Sang (link)】

【Chen Ya: @Qiao Sang (link), (image)】

【Zhou Zhizhi: @Qiao Sang, is what's on the news true?】

【Jin Feifan: @Qiao Sang, is that photo on your Moments true? It's already trending.】

【Lu You: @Qiao Sang, act like a human!】

【Wang Jihang: Act like a human +1】

【He Jueming: Act like a human +2】

Moments photo? Trending? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, clicked on one of the links, and discovered it was news reporting that she had been admitted to the Imperial Beast Taming Academy.

The specific content stated that to celebrate her daughter being admitted to the Imperial Beast Taming Academy, the top-ranked institution on Blue Star, Ms. Ye held a grand banquet for seven days, inviting everyone to eat together, and it was free for anyone who came.

It also attached a photo of Ms. Ye smiling brightly at the camera.

The news ended with a sentence: 【The truth of what Ms. Ye said remains unclear.】

Mom... Qiao Sang looked at the photo in the news, her mouth twitching.

She looked at her classmates who were still flooding the screen telling her to act like a human, feeling a bit innocent. She didn't say anything wrong; sometimes she really couldn't understand the lessons... Qiao Sang sighed, closed the chat group, and decided not to provoke everyone's hatred anymore.

Just then, the coach sent a message:

【My training method will only make your skin, tendons, and bones become sturdy from deep within. You are not doing strength training, so you won't grow such exaggerated muscles.】

Seeing this, Qiao Sang felt relieved, then turned off her phone, went to the bathroom, filled the bathtub with water, and poured in the toughening potion.

For the following week, Qiao Sang went to the club for training every day.

After a week of being beaten, her defense improved by leaps and bounds, and she could withstand 110 kilograms of punching force without suffering too serious an injury.

The healing-type pet beasts prepared at the club were not needed either; Lubao helped her cast Light of Healing every day, so no injuries were left at all.

In Alma's words: I didn't expect you to have such a talent for impact resistance (being able to take a beating).

Although Qiao Sang felt it sounded a bit strange, she accepted it gladly; after all, she came here for defense training.

During this period, the application for the micro-shrinking bracelet was approved, but it was a pre-order, and it could only be sent out uniformly when it went on sale half a month later.

On this day, after Qiao Sang finished training and returned home, she summoned Like Ya Bao.

"Ya ya..."

As soon as Like Ya Bao came out, it walked to the extra-large full-length mirror that had been specially customized two days ago, looking at its mighty and domineering image with a not-so-high mood.

Qiao Sang was not surprised.

Like Ya Bao was fine when she first went out to enter the Beast Taming Canon, but as time went on, it became a bit depressed.

Now Like Ya Bao only felt better when it saw its new image.

Qiao Sang drank a bottle of fitness tonic and sat down on the sofa.

She took out her phone, preparing to look up the competitive entertainment match the vice principal mentioned.

With Like Ya Bao's current size, it was easy to accidentally hurt others if it appeared on the street, but if there was a place specifically for beast tamers to gather and compete, there would be no need to worry so much.

Like Ya Bao hadn't appeared outside much recently, so it was time to let it move around...

Qiao Sang logged into an app called "District 1 Competition Talk" and looked down one by one.

【Fighting-type Pet Beast Extreme Strength Challenge】

【D-level Beast Tamer Group Battle】

【Water-type Pet Beast Treasure Hunting Competition】

【B-level Beast Tamer Championship】

【C-level Beast Tamer Gorgeous Competition】

【Beast Tamer Translation Competition】

【D-level Beast Tamer Card Drawing Competition】

Why is there no competition project specifically suitable for psychic-type pet beasts like the vice principal said... Qiao Sang thought helplessly.

What was published on this software were the events to be held in District 1 in the next week. If there wasn't one, then there was no such competition.

Suddenly, Qiao Sang's gaze stopped on a certain competition name.

【Ghost-type Pet Beast Negative Energy Collection Competition】

There's actually a competition like this... Qiao Sang's eyes lit up, she clicked into it, and read the content inside.

She scanned it quickly. The competition time was in three days, there was no limit on pet beast level, each beast tamer would be issued an emotional energy collection bottle, and there would be three hours of collection time. The top three would not need to return the emotional energy collection bottle and could also receive an emotional energy display device.

Qiao Sang had heard of this thing; it was said to mainly detect whether someone's current emotions were positive or negative.

Positive lights up green, negative lights up red.

It was specifically for those ghost-type pet beasts that were not sensitive to emotional energy.

Qiao Sang didn't really need this prize, but she was still very interested in this competition.

After all, the little treasure-hunting ghost had absorbed emotional energy before, causing its energy to rise directly to the late stage of the high-tier.

Qiao Sang confirmed the competition matters and paid the 1000 Alliance Coin registration fee.

"Xun xun~"

At this moment, the little treasure-hunting ghost floated over, pointed at the computer on the table, indicating it wanted to play.

"No," Qiao Sang refused ruthlessly: "Practice Dark Shadow Control 300 times a day, you haven't finished today's yet."

"Xun xun..."

The little treasure-hunting ghost stretched out its two claws, revealing a pitiful expression.

But it had just performed Brick Break for a long time, so tired.

Qiao Sang glanced at its claws: "If you're tired, I'll let Lubao cast Light of Healing for you."

Little treasure-hunting ghost: "..."

"Xun xun..."

The little treasure-hunting ghost sighed, drooping its head, preparing to accept its fate and finish the training first.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang sighed and said:

"There's a negative emotional energy collection competition in three days. If you win the top three, I'll let you rest for a day."

"Xun xun!"

Hearing this, the little treasure-hunting ghost was instantly energized, turning its head to look at its beast tamer with an expression of "Really?".

"Of course it's true," Qiao Sang laughed.

The vice principal should also arrive on the day the competition ends, so they would have to discuss Like Ya Bao's matter, and she wouldn't have time to continue training at the club that day either.

"Xun xun~"

Hearing this, the little treasure-hunting ghost was happy, floating away to train.

Three days passed in a flash.

Other people's mornings were woken up by alarm clocks, but Qiao Sang's morning was suffocated awake by the little treasure-hunting ghost pinching her nose.

Qiao Sang opened her eyes speechlessly.

"Xun xun!"

The little treasure-hunting ghost floated around happily, indicating it was ready and could go to the competition.

"The competition time is at one o'clock in the afternoon, it's still early," Qiao Sang said, pulling up the quilt to cover her head.

"Xun xun~"

The little treasure-hunting ghost tried to pull the quilt to continue waking up its beast tamer.

It doesn't matter if it hasn't started, they can set off early to scout and see where there is more negative emotional energy.

If you had this heart for your usual training, Dark Shadow Control would have reached the peak of profound truth long ago... Qiao Sang complained in her heart, covering herself with the quilt and saying:

"I'll sleep a little longer."

"Xun xun..."

The little treasure-hunting ghost looked at Qiao Sang hiding in the quilt and shook its head with a sigh.

Its beast tamer is really too lazy.

At twelve o'clock noon, Qiao Sang finished lunch, rode on Gangbao, and followed the navigation to a place called the Augustus Competition Institute.

After confirming the information with the staff, Qiao Sang stepped inside.

As soon as she entered, she was a bit shocked.

She saw that the interior was extremely luxurious, with pet beast sculptures all around and huge crystal chandeliers on the ceiling reflecting each other.

Directly in front of the lobby, the towering huge virtual screen was particularly eye-catching.

Most importantly, the lobby, which seemed to be able to accommodate thousands of people, was full of spectators at this moment!

Qiao Sang scanned the lobby, looking confused, thinking to herself, what the hell? Looking at this formation, are they going to compete in collecting negative emotional energy on the spot?

At this moment, an impatient voice came from behind:

"Move aside, don't block the way."

Qiao Sang turned her head and saw a man wearing a white shirt, black trousers, blonde hair, with white hair at his temples, forehead wrinkles, nasolabial folds, and crow's feet.

Although the other party's attitude was a bit bad, holding the idea of yielding to the elderly, Qiao Sang leaned to the side.

The middle-aged man was about to move forward, but he suddenly seemed to have spotted something, stopped his steps, and gave a light "Huh".

Qiao Sang looked in the direction of his gaze, her heart tightening.

Because where his gaze was currently fixed was exactly the position of the little treasure-hunting ghost.

And the little treasure-hunting ghost was currently in an invisible state.

This person wouldn't have seen the little treasure-hunting ghost, right... Impossible, impossible, the little treasure-hunting ghost is clearly invisible right now... Just as Qiao Sang's thoughts were in chaos, the middle-aged man looked over with his slightly murky eyes:

"Is this your pet beast?"

Holy crap! He can really see the little treasure-hunting ghost! Qiao Sang was shocked.

She retreated silently, distancing herself from the other party, and asked with a puzzled look:

"What are you talking about?"

"I said, is this gray pet beast with golden rings on its body yours?" The middle-aged man's attitude improved quite a bit.

Qiao Sang asked back:

"You can see it?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man laughed:

"Didn't your elders tell you? Beast tamers with ghost-type pet beasts, when they reach a certain level of feedback in the later stages, can see some things that ordinary people cannot."

"For example, invisible ghost-type pet beasts."
