Chapter 746: Beastmaster Celebrity Match
After breakfast, Qiao Sang arrived at the classroom via Xiao Xunbao's spatial teleportation.
She had just sat down when a classmate playing on his phone suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my god!"
Then he whipped his head around.
Qiao Sang was baffled by the stare.
The other classmates turned to look. "What's up?"
The classmate who had exclaimed "Oh my god" ignored everyone else, fixing an eager gaze on Qiao Sang, turning his phone screen toward her, and asking:
"How do you know Dean Liz of the Medical School?"
Saying so, he tapped the screen.
The video on it began to play.
Qiao Sang looked over—it was footage of herself riding in the carriage of a giant avian pet beast at the school gate.
It was all because it stood out too much.
After hearing this, Ti Chong asked:
"He's still a student of your Imperial Beastmaster Academy, after all." Ju Ji Ji said hurriedly: "Getting him to take part in a celebrity match for practical training would be a piece of cake."
You Peng hugged the books to his chest and came to the registration desk.
After Ti Chong finished speaking, I said with an admiring expression:
"Is he prepared to give up all his arrangements for the evening?"
"Your Imperial Beastmaster Academy has the best mechanical-system pet beasts. As long as something has appeared online, it can be tracked down. Ghost Ring King's cameo in the movie wasn't specifically publicized, but it was given a close-up. Among all the beastmasters in the entire Super Qiao Sang, only he has a different-colored Ghost Ring King, so it was easy to find out."
It's as if you were born to go all the way in the beastmaster world; showing interest in other fields and wasting time would be the wrong thing to do.
"When is this competition held?" Ti Chong asked.
Huh? Beastmaster Celebrity Match? Isn't that the competition you're about to take part in… You Peng silently turned his gaze to the classmate who had spoken.
"You came here mainly to train him in real combat, and the fastest way to train real combat is to keep entering secret realms and taking part in competitions."
Other beastmaster-system students felt nothing looking at those books.
……
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Ju Ji Ji revealed a smile:
Seems like there's no problem… but, but that's Healing Light! Ju Ji Ji kept repeating in his heart: Stay calm, stay calm…
"Wait!" Ti Chong interrupted: "How did you know about the movie cameo?"
Everyone recognized at a glance that the giant avian pet beast carrying the carriage in the video was Dean Liz's exclusive mount at Yuliandun University.
Plus, recently the mentor group chat had been discussing a beastmaster-system freshman who had turned down Dean Gilbert, along with a set of photos, so he had a fairly clear picture of the other party's basic situation.
I had heard of the Beastmaster Celebrity Match—not just in Super You Peng, but on Blue Star as well there are competitions of this type.
【Hello, I'm a teacher at Imperial Beastmaster Academy.】
12 noon.
"That's right, the competition is held once a year. The participants are all celebrity figures quite well-known among beastmasters. Although they've been active in the entertainment industry and other fields, the good thing is they're all much older than him, with plenty of experience, and willing to spend money on their pet beasts. Battling them will serve as effective training."
"Healing Light, if I remember right, is a super-tier healing skill…"
Then, a timely voice came from the entryway:
This time, it was a timely number:
"What if we put your study plan in the evening?"
Ti Chong made an "mm."
I thought it was something important… Qiao Sang withdrew her gaze and said calmly:
Originally I was thinking the same… Ju Ji Ji asked:
Yuliandun news may spread fast, but the lockdown is pretty solid too.
"What I mean is, put it in the evening after all these things are done." Ti Chong said seriously: "I actually don't need to sleep."
From the looks of it, probably only the mentors here know about this news…
"Xian." Tianxian Bat called out, picking up the book.
After finishing reading "Rare Pet Beast Illustrated Guide," Ti Chong came to the display screen and skillfully operated it.
Just as Ti Chong was about to reply, another new text message came in.
"Xunxun…"
"No wonder Dean Liz came to find Ti Chong…"
The doorbell rang.
Just meeting Dean Liz is already this shocking—looks like everyone still doesn't know about me turning down Dean Gilbert… Ti Chong put on an unruffled expression as he listened to the others' conversation.
Ju Ji Ji took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and said:
【Are you home at 6 p. m.? I'll come by to learn a bit about your situation first.】
Saying so, he walked in and got straight to the point:
Ti Chong led him to the sofa in the living room to sit down and said:
"Sounds pretty awesome…"
"Ti Chong."
What others knew about Qiao Sang were the things often discussed on the surface—age, brain domain, pet beast levels and attributes, and so on.
The moment the words fell, Xiao Xunbao appeared beside her, waving its claws and shaking its head.
Ti Chong called out: "Lubao."
Registration approved?
Piwaite was stunned, his expression strange as he opened his mouth, and finally said:
"You need to sleep."
At that time, the family hadn't even had a calm discussion about it yet; it was just that the various halos surrounding Tichong were too dazzling, which subconsciously led people to discuss him, and that matter was forgotten.
That child... a warm current welled up in his heart, and Super Su Xing said in a deep voice:
Hopefully it will be of some help to the Vice Principal... Youpeng thought as he sat down and ate the meal the Vice Principal had left.
"I did some research. His Ghost Ring King has been on the news, filmed a promotional video for some competition, and even made a cameo in a movie..."
At that moment, Dorothy's voice rang out:
"Teacher?" Tichong's tone was puzzled.
Treatment?
A teacher from the Imperial Beast Taming Academy? Tichong got up and went over.
Library.
"Among ordinary people, a professional Beast Tamer of that age would be at their limit if they cultivated their pet beast to General-grade. He wouldn't have met someone who could defeat him in just a couple of moves."
Upon hearing this, Lubao flicked her tail and left.
After finishing dinner.
【Don't worry about the materials. I'll have it sorted out right away.】
The girl in front of him had been coming frequently these past two days; her underage-looking appearance really stood out too much among a bunch of twenty-something-year-old kids.
【Hope it helps.】
He turned on the light, went to the dining table, and put down the things in his hand.
Youpeng hesitated:
The middle-aged woman hummed "Mm": "I'm Piwaite."
Seeing her come out, the middle-aged woman nodded slightly:
"That's good." A timely voice said.
Piwaite nodded slightly:
"Bing Ai."
The thought had just arisen when his phone buzzed again:
"Did you see the trending searches? The Beast Tamer Star Competition opens today!"
"You will definitely become an outstanding Beast Tamer. No, you already are one now."
"5 books, 1 point per day for each." The administrator gathered up those messy thoughts.
"You don't need to worry about that." Piwaite smiled:
Piwaite said: "I came to register you on your behalf, and you passed successfully."
"Besides, don't worry, the competition has an age limit, within 35 years old."
Piwaite sat beside them, listening in a daze.
"Is Student Tichong here?"
Oh, it's that mentor who came for the 1v1 teaching... Tichong's heart stirred, and he began typing:
The Dean of the Yuliandun Medical Academy, asking a freshman from the Beast Taming Department for help with treatment?
Youpeng: "..."
Lubao nodded in cooperation at the side.
"Help someone with treatment?" Piwaite didn't hide his confusion.
He was stunned for a moment, took out the note below and glanced at it. The fairly neat handwriting on it read:
Yuliandun University.
After saying that, he concealed his figure.
Everyone immediately understood, and expressions like "I remember now," "How did I forget about that" appeared on their faces one after another.
Under the spatial movement of Little Xunbao, Tichong returned to the villa living room and placed the book on the dining table.
"But the excuse for outsiders is that Ghost Ring King participated in the promotional video and the cameo movie." Piwaite added.
Bing Ai Pa Lu had already displayed a healing skill during the freshman assessment when she was still Binghua Bingke.
"Steel Slash." Gangbao answered.
Not to mention, it felt quite special......
Youpeng roughly scanned the covers of the books placed on top, which were related to Energy Pill materials.
What a coincidence... Tichong lowered his head to look.
The participating Beast Tamers were without exception all people with fans and traffic; many of them had become famous by participating in regional grand competitions.
Just as he was thinking, his phone buzzed.
"The competition I want you to participate in runs from 6:30 PM to 11:30 PM, so you don't need to stay up late. You just need to rearrange what you have to do in the evening."
Lubao, who had been staying there, suddenly thought of something upon seeing this. She raised her head to look at her own Beast Tamer and called out, asking if there was still something for her to do; if not, she would go train.
8:05 AM.
Tichong glanced at it: "Beast Tamer Star Competition?"
After a pause, Piwaite changed the subject:
If he were on Blue Star, with the popularity of Like Ya Bao and Lubao and his own fan count, he might be able to sign up and give it a try, but now on Super Qiao Sang, he was clearly not qualified enough.
Soon, the mechanical-system pet beast brought over a pile of books related to Energy Pill materials.
But the child behind her felt no odd sensation when looking at those books related to the Beast Taming Department.
"Bing Ai."
"Look." Tichong said.
The classmates beside her also saw this video and immediately turned their heads in shock, gathering their gazes over.
Tichong picked it up to check — it was a text message from the vice principal:
But having known Super Su Xing fairly well, Shao Luosi understood a bit more in detail.
Two in the morning.
Biwai Te casually pulled a promotional poster from the bag he carried and placed it under the coffee table.
Holy crap, so it's through the front door… Tichong understood instantly.
"What does he borrow those books for?"
5:45 in the evening.
When speaking of that, he paused, then continued:
"You should meet the registration standard, right?"
"Not tomorrow." Biwai Te pointed at the time on the promotional poster.
"Even so, you still shouldn't meet the registration standard."
Then, he saw several books stacked on the dining table, with a small note pressed on top.
"Recently during the day I have classes as usual, at noon I'll come back to read a bit and help my pet beast train, in the evening I haven't let Trainer You Peng come to the door to help with training, the pet beasts all train on their own, but recently in the evening I should be going out to help people with healing, it'll probably take one to two hours."
Biwai Te couldn't quite believe what he was hearing. He took a deep breath and said with difficulty: "Just for staying up late, and you let Xunxun Palu use Healing Light?"
"I hope to first understand your recent schedule, then make arrangements."
It's been said it's the Beast Tamer Stars Competition, so the participants should all be figures active on screen. I'm just a student who just started first year — let alone screen activities, on Super Qiao Sang I don't even have an account.
The administrator glanced at the books placed on the desk, then looked at the person who had carried that stack of books over, and said in a surprised tone:
【I'm at, 13 Kenworth Residence, that's where I live now.】
【September 13】
Met a middle-aged woman with thick, stiff red hair standing up strand by strand, and a snake-type pet beast whose body was mostly red, with a cream-colored belly and feet, that had seven limbs but stood on only two.
The way everyone looked at You Peng changed once again.
Yuliandun University.
The next day.
"Lili." A pet beast's voice rang out.
Tichong: "……"
The administrator: "……"
"Bing Ai." Lubao, about to head off for training, ambled over leisurely.
Super Su Xing dragged his exhausted body back to the villa.
"What competition is it?"
……
"My Xunxun Palu knows Healing Light. If you want to sleep in the evening, just get one shot of it and you won't feel sleepy anymore, and staying up late won't cause any harm to your body at all. Feel free to come try it anytime." Tichong said.
"But your daily schedule is arranged so tightly, it's not good for us to go out and do actual combat matches. Some things need to be prioritized — you have to give up some of your original arrangements."
"But isn't that right? That is a super-tier skill of the healing type."
"I think skills should be used where they matter most." You Peng said with a serious face: "What I lack right now is time, and Healing Light happens to let me have the energy to stay up late studying. I don't see any problem with it."
Gangbao swallowed the last energy pill and went to open the door.
"Lili." The snake-type pet beast helped translate.
Before coming, he had actually already obtained all of Tichong's information — from the initial shock to the later感慨.
He had thought he had made sufficient mental preparations, but he hadn't expected that after barely two sentences of conversation, his understanding was refreshed once again.
That spy teacher?
"Take the books to the room first."
"Super You Peng has no secret realm, so I want you to enter the competition."
"I once heard from an elder that in the medical world there was a towering figure — before the age of 57, she was just a nurse. Later she contracted a pet beast that knew Healing Light, and was directly hired as a doctor. In half a year she was promoted to deputy chief, in one year to chief, and later directly participated in various research projects combating viruses, winning countless awards. In short, her life was completely changed because of a pet beast that knew Healing Light."
A pet beast is sometimes equivalent to a beast tamer's face and status.
Hmm, classes during the day are a must, at noon there's only so much time — eating a meal takes up almost all of it, and it's not convenient to go out for actual combat. In the evening, Trainer Liu Yao must come, otherwise that course will be broken off. Once on Blue Star, there won't be Trainer Liu Yao's help anymore. Earning money through healing is also extremely important… none of them feel easy to give up… Tichong thought for a moment and suggested:
The evening time isn't impossible to rearrange either — he is the consumer, at worst he can just ask Trainer Liu Yao to come after 12 midnight, at most pay a bit extra… The healing matters, after some communication, should also be movable to the early morning hours. After all, what he's treating are terminal illnesses — they can't possibly be willing to wait… Tichong sat in his seat thinking.
You Peng nodded solemnly: "Dean Liz of Yuliandun came to me hoping I could use Xunxun Palu's Healing Light to help some terminal patients. I believe the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. It's just one Healing Light, yet it gives others the hope of living again, so I didn't refuse."
At that moment, a slightly excited voice rang out in the classroom:
Tichong looked at Lubao: "Go train."
Tichong was stunned for a moment — that makes sense!
Tichong looked back at Biwai Te and said:
"Dean Liz asked me to help with healing."
Beast Taming Department, Class One.
"Is it because of Xunxun Palu's Healing Light?"
