Chapter 959

Contestant area.

Qiao Sang found the corresponding seat, and just as she sat down, she heard the person next to her greet her:

"What a coincidence, we're sitting together again."

Qiao Sang turned her head and found it was the contestant named Rong Yuhua who sat next to her last time, and she revealed a polite smile:

"It is quite a coincidence."

Rong Yuhua lowered his voice and asked:

"The internet says your Breeze Nini evolved, is it true?"

Before asking, he already had the answer in his heart; now he just wanted to use this topic to converse.

Generally speaking, between contestants, some topics about how strong a pet beast is would be subconsciously avoided.

Even if they really chatted, it's either because that pet beast has already been sent out and its strength has been shown, so everyone already knows what they should know.

Or it's because they feel that with their own pet beast's strength, it doesn't matter even if they say it.

Or it's just you asking casually, me answering casually, and believing it is your own business.

Qiao Sang's situation is relatively special. The pet beast he is interested in, even if it really evolved, is only a high-level pet beast and cannot appear on the competition field, so it doesn't count as probing for strength. Rong Yuhua chatted without any taboos.

"It evolved," Qiao Sang nodded.

Rong Yuhua's eyes lit up, then he thought of something and asked:

"Do you live in Zhongshui Villas?"

Zhongshui Villas, the name of the residence where Yu Ke lives.

"No," Qiao Sang shook her head: "My friend lives there."

After speaking, she asked: "How do you know this location?"

Did the paparazzi even expose the detailed location of the training ground?

"I have a friend who lives there," Rong Yuhua replied: "The video of Breeze Nini's evolution captured the layout of the training ground, and a friend of mine sent me a message saying it's the same place where he lives."

He paused and asked: "Others will definitely dig out where you train sooner or later. Are you going to change places to train next?"

Qiao Sang: "???"

Digging it out means changing locations, is it that serious?

Qiao Sang pondered for a few seconds and said: "I don't know which guy reserved and booked all the remaining training grounds in Tian'an City on the same day. I can't change places."

That guy is me... Rong Yuhua was silent for a moment.

After more than ten seconds, he finally spoke, saying what he had wanted to say earlier: "Do you want to go train on my side? I still have several vacant properties in Tian'an City."

If he were a B-level Beast Tamer, even if there was a slight possibility of defeating Qiao Sang, he would never provide her with a training ground. But he is currently only a C-level Beast Tamer, and even if he became Qiao Sang's opponent, there is no possibility of winning.

Since that's the case, it's better to build a good relationship.

Qiao Sang glanced at him and refused:

"No need, training at my friend's place is quite good."

Compared to Rong Yuhua, who is also a contestant, she naturally trusts Yu Ke, who has a relationship of mutual interest, more.

Because Rong Yuhua had booked all the remaining training grounds in Tian'an City, he felt guilty and didn't say anything more.

Family area.

Ye Xiangting had already become the central figure in this area.

Almost everyone surrounded her, talking all at once.

"Qiao Sang's mom, is the video on the internet true?"

"Did Breeze Nini really evolve into a Clear Hidden Fairy?"

"Can we add each other's contact information?"

"You came all the way from the Yuhua region to watch the competition, you must not have walked around much in the Zhongkong region. After the competition ends, you call Qiao Sang, and I'll take you to have a good time in the Zhongkong region."

Ye Xiangting responded to each one with ease:

"I don't know, I haven't been online much... I'm not clear, Qiao Sang, this child, has been training outside, and usually doesn't call home much. I only found out she became a B-level Beast Tamer when I came to watch the competition... Of course, you can... Good, I'll ask Qiao Sang then to see if she has time."

Liu Yao listened to the conversation on the side without saying a word.

The middle-aged man next to him, who also looked taciturn, asked:

"Are you Qiao Sang's dad?"

Liu Yao was concise: "No."

The man asked curiously: "Then who are you?"

Liu Yao didn't reveal his identity as a researcher and said low-key: "I can be considered her high school teacher."

The man's eyes lit up and he asked:

"What high school."

Liu Yao replied: "Shengshui High School."

The man asked again: "Is Qiao Sang still attending?"

"No, she has already been admitted to university in advance," Liu Yao said.

The man gossiped to the end: "What university?"

Liu Yao didn't hide it: "Imperial Beast Taming Academy."

The man was stunned for a second, felt it was very reasonable, and after coming back to his senses, he immediately took out his phone and sent the gossiped news to the "Loving Family" group:

【I just heard the news, Qiao Sang is attending the Imperial Beast Taming Academy!】

While typing, the time reached nine o'clock in the morning.

The host came to the stage, welcomed the audience, introduced the guests, and after going through all the procedures, finally entered the main topic:

"Next, we will conduct the grouping for the 108 to 54! Let us invite the judges from the Notary Office!"

A giant virtual screen appeared out of thin air on the stage.

Everyone stopped talking and focused their eyes on the screen and the grouping machine.

"Fen fen."

The grouping machine came to the center of the stage, split into two, and its head floated toward the giant virtual screen in the center, merging into it.

All the contestants' photos began to cross and shuffle rapidly.

After about ten seconds, the photos were paired up and froze on the screen.

Qiao Sang glanced slightly and saw her photo in the third group.

Pretty good, all three times I competed on the first day, so I won't be maliciously disturbed when resting at night... Qiao Sang felt comfortable and looked at her opponent.

The moment she saw the opponent's photo, the corners of her mouth that had just lifted dropped again.

Shi Bing, 38 years old, C-level Beast Tamer. Although his level is only a C-level Beast Tamer, he has actually cultivated a King-tier pet beast.

As a C-level Beast Tamer, having a King-tier pet beast naturally attracts a lot of attention.

Even though he decided the outcome of his previous two rounds of competition using only two pet beasts, Qiao Sang still knew the levels of all his pet beasts through the media.

One King-tier, two General-tier, one High-level.

If there are no accidents, the pet beasts he sends out will definitely be one King-tier and two General-tier.

Sure enough, I'm not that lucky to encounter an opponent who will send out a High-level pet beast... Qiao Sang sighed in her heart.

General-tier pet beasts, even if only at the initial stage, Qingbao is bound to lose if it encounters one.

As thoughts flickered, a staff member walked over, respectfully announced the names of the top three groups of contestants, and invited them to the backstage to prepare.

Qiao Sang got up and followed the group to the backstage.

She didn't wait in the backstage lounge like the previous two times, but came to a deserted corner.

"Qingbao," Qiao Sang called out.

"Qing qing." Qingbao appeared.

"The next opponent will send out at least a General-tier pet beast." Qiao Sang explained the opponent's situation.

"Qing qing..."

Qingbao was stunned for a moment.

What does that mean?

Can't I go on stage?

Qingbao seemed to understand something and revealed a disappointed expression.

A strong wind also blew around them at the same time.

Qiao Sang's hair flew, and she continued with a serious face:

"So are you ready? For the battle against a General-tier pet beast."

"Qing qing..."

Qingbao raised its head, looking at its Beast Tamer with a dazed expression.

At the same time, the strong wind stopped abruptly.

Qiao Sang continued: "Don't worry, I will wear down the General-tier pet beast first, but even so, its strength is definitely far beyond yours. If you feel the odds of winning aren't great, actually I will participate in many other competitions later."

To be honest, unless the General-tier pet beast is beaten until it's almost down, it's really hard for Qingbao to have a chance of winning.

If Qingbao had an idol burden like Like Ya Bao or Little Xunbao, she really wouldn't suggest it go on stage for this match for its first appearance under everyone's eyes.

"Qing qing!"

Almost the second after she finished speaking, Qingbao nodded with a firm expression.

It wants to go on stage!

"Even if you lose?" Qiao Sang asked.

"Qing qing!"

Qingbao nodded vigorously.

"Why do you want to go on stage so much?" Qiao Sang couldn't help but ask curiously.

In her view, Qingbao is not a competitive character.

"Qing qing."

Qingbao thought seriously, called out, indicating it wanted to try.

"Try?" Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment.

This is an answer she hadn't thought of.

"Qing qing."

Qingbao nodded.

Trying, whether it's Gangbao or Little Xunbao, they seem to like competing very much, and besides...

"Qing qing."

Qingbao paused, revealed a sweet smile, and then called out.

We are companions, aren't we? I also want to win the match for you.

Qingbao... After listening, Qiao Sang was moved beyond measure and said passionately:

"Good! Let's win the match!"

Time passed.

The competition proceeded in an orderly manner.

On the commentary stage, Tian Yiwan looked at the data of the next group of contestants, his tone becoming excited involuntarily:

"Next up are contestant Qiao Sang and contestant Shi Bing. Both of these contestants are highly anticipated in this competition!"

"That's right," Tang Xueran echoed:

"One is the youngest contestant in this competition, and also the one with the highest discussion rate, frequently hitting trending searches even on days without matches, contestant Qiao Sang. The other is contestant Shi Bing, one of the few C-level Beast Tamers who possesses a King-tier pet beast and can fight back and forth with B-level Beast Tamers."

As she spoke, she heard the cheers of the entire venue and laughed: "At this moment, I have already heard the enthusiastic cheers of the audience on the scene. It seems everyone is looking forward to the upcoming match."

Screams were everywhere in the audience:

"Ah! Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

"Ghost Ring King! Steel Sword Falcon!"

"Clear Hidden Fairy! Please! Let me see the Clear Hidden Fairy!"

"Master Qiao! Master Qiao! Must be super god!"

Even if there were fans of Shi Bing in the audience, their shouts were quickly drowned out at this moment.

At this time, Tian Yiwan said:

"Contestant Qiao Sang and contestant Shi Bing have appeared!"

Following his words, two cyan bird-type pet beasts rushed straight into the sky from the underground passage.

The screams in the audience suddenly rose to another height:

"Ahhh! Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

"Shi Bing! Shi Bing!"

"King-tier pet beast! I want to see the King-tier pet beast!"

"Clear Hidden Fairy! I want to see the Clear Hidden Fairy!"

Amidst the screams, a "10" light and shadow appeared on the field.

The people in the audience fell silent in tacit understanding.

Family area.

Ye Xiangting looked at the sturdy figure on the field, thought of something, frowned slightly, turned her head and asked:

"Is Shi Bing's team one King-tier, two General-tier, and one High-level pet beast out of the four?"

Liu Yao had only watched the competition and had no understanding of off-field information.

He thought for a moment and said:

"I know he sent out one King-tier and one General-tier in the last match, I'm not very clear about the rest."

Ye Xiangting looked at the field, the excitement she felt earlier when hearing it was her daughter's turn to compete turned into worry.

Although her daughter is a B-level Beast Tamer, both Like Ya Bao and Lubao have only recently evolved.

For King-tier pet beasts, even if the energy in the body is only a small stage apart, the strength is worlds apart.

And there's Qingbao, if the opponent is as she saw on the internet, Qingbao is afraid it won't be able to go on stage...

The light and shadow on the field changed constantly, and soon it reached "1".

The light and shadow disappeared accordingly.

Qiao Sang and Shi Bing formed seals simultaneously.

A red star array and an orange-yellow star array lit up on the field.

Soon, two exceptionally huge figures appeared in the star arrays.

With the appearance of the pet beast almost entirely covered in dark blue scales from the red star array, the temperature on the field dropped suddenly, and large patches of pure white snowflakes suddenly fell.

The snowflakes landed on the noble and mysterious pet beast, and the degree of its beauty and shock made the people in the audience stunned.

"What kind of pet beast is this, so beautiful..."

"Don't know, anyway it must be King-tier..."

"Is this Qiao Sang's King-tier pet beast? So good-looking..."

"I feel that just in terms of appearance, it could easily participate in those international-level coordination competitions."

At the same time.

Regional competition official live broadcast room.

Suddenly, the bullet comments were swiping the screen crazily:

【Ah!!! Ice Emperor Ram!!! Ice Emperor Ram!!!】

【I'm crazy! What did I see?!】

【Family members from the Guwu region! Swipe the screen for me!!!】

【Ahhh! Qiao Sang actually cultivated the original Ice Kexilu into an Ice Emperor Ram! Heavens! I'm going crazy!】

【Ice Emperor Ram! Ah! Tell me, how can I buy a ticket to the Zhongkong region regional competition! I want to go to the scene!】

【Brothers, see you in the Zhongkong region, I have already bought a plane ticket to the Zhongkong region.】

【Family members, my boss won't let me take leave to go to the Zhongkong region, I have already resigned.】

【I announce that Qiao Sang will be my only idol from now on!】

【Ah! Qiao Sang! Come to our Guwu region! Although our regional competition just ended not long ago, for the Ice Emperor Ram, we can apply for next year's regional competition to be held in advance!】

【Family members from the Guwu region, swipe the screen for me! The Ice Emperor Ram must have its presence!!!】

【What the hell? Why are there so many people from the Guwu region?】

Competition scene.

Lubao looked at the opponent in the distance with a calm expression.

Sky Ice Crow, a Flying and Ice dual-attribute King-tier pet beast, its body temperature is usually around minus ten degrees. It can create snow clouds in its body after drinking a large amount of water, and only when it gets angry will it bring about blizzard weather... I remember the opponent's Sky Ice Crow showed the Snow Hide characteristic in previous matches... Qiao Sang looked at the pet beast in the distance, which was about twelve meters tall, seemed to be covered in ice, and had ice thorns on its back, and the related data surfaced in her mind.
