Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 321

Chapter 321: Chapter 308: This Guy, Got Something Special

The competition on the field had already progressed to the second match.

"I haven’t seen this pet beast before." Qiao Sang said, looking at the pet beast in the center of the field that was blue all over, with a white belly, blue whiskers, a thick tail that curved upwards, and two large, exposed incisors.

"That’s a Sea Gnawing Badger." Xu Yixuan said as she adjusted her glasses, explaining, "It comes from the Ancient Mist Region. Despite its small size, those incisors can gnaw through big trees."

As she spoke, her thoughts drifted, "Eating walnuts or something, it feels good to have it beside you."

After finishing that sentence, Xu Yixuan got back to the point, "Don’t worry, even though the Sea Gnawing Badger is a pet beast from the Ancient Mist Region, there’s not much difference compared to ordinary water-type pet beasts. Just fight as usual, even He Daotao should be able to win this round."

Just as her words ended, the Sea Gnawing Badger on the field launched a Water Jet Thrust downwards. The Flame Listening Dog didn’t dodge and chose to take it head-on with a jet of flame.

However, just as the two were about to collide, the Water Jet Thrust suddenly changed direction, spiraling around the perimeter of the jet of flame and approaching in a helical motion.

The Flame Listening Dog couldn’t dodge in time and took a direct hit, letting out a cry of pain.

There was a cheer from the players of Shengshui Middle School.

Fortunately, the Flame Listening Dog was thick-skinned and was not KO’d by a single blow.

Xu Yixuan’s mouth twitched slightly. Surely the blowback wouldn’t come this quickly, right? Was He Daotao really up to the task or not? It was only the second school they were competing against...

Qiao Sang didn’t care much about that. She watched the Sea Gnawing Badger on the field and thought about the scene where the Water Jet Thrust had spiraled just now.

Those who hadn’t taught a water-type pet beast Water Jet Thrust might not realize, but as someone who had taught Lubao the skill, she knew how difficult that maneuver was.

To change the direction of the Water Jet Thrust, one would have to maintain the energy circulation and have strong control over their body.

While all pet beasts capable of using Water Jet Thrust could change the direction a bit, like from left to right or from down to up, or make a large-angle alteration, that was simple.

But to control the Water Jet Thrust in a constant spiraling motion with non-stop changes in direction, the difficulty was a solid five stars.

At least Lubao currently couldn’t pull it off.

This girl is unusual... Qiao Sang thought as she looked toward the Beast Tamer of the Sea Gnawing Badger.

In the previous and penultimate tournaments, Shengshui Middle School hadn’t faced off against Beast Taming High School, which caused He Daotao to lack sufficient understanding of the team members from Beast Taming High School.

Besides knowing the names of the members of Beast Taming High School’s team and their respective pet beasts, and that they were very proficient in training water-type pet beasts, he knew little else, making the competition not as smooth as the fights against Reviving Beast Taming High School.

There were six rounds for three players. He Daotao lost the first and the fifth rounds.

He had amassed a total of 12 points.

With this score, by today’s end, He Daotao was likely to be temporarily kicked out of the first tier.

"A2 group Shengshui Middle School’s Qiao Sang versus A2 group Beast Taming High School’s Zhou Jing." The voice from the broadcast resounded.

He Daotao sat despondently in his chair, not yet recovered from the shock of his two defeats.

"No worries, it’s just two rounds lost. I’ll win them back for you." Qiao Sang patted his shoulder to comfort him and then headed to the field.

He Daotao snapped out of it and watched Qiao Sang’s retreating figure, internally complaining:

I don’t feel comforted at all! We’re in individual competitions, not a team event! Your winning has nothing to do with me!

But... He Daotao stretched his legs out, relaxing a bit in his sitting posture. Deep down, he did feel somewhat better.

Just then, Xu Yixuan spoke up softly:

"How could you lose two rounds to Beast Taming High School, especially the second one against the Sea Gnawing Badger? That shouldn’t have happened. I had just reassured Qiao Sang that you would be fine, and then you lost, which is like slapping my face."

"We aren’t even on a water field. You shouldn’t have lost. Given your standard, there should have been no problem. Didn’t the coach always tell you not to go all out with your skills in the beginning if you can’t secure an advantage? The energy of the pet beast is limited. Why don’t you listen?"

"And moreover..."

He Daotao: "..."

His mood suddenly turned sour again.

...

As Qiao Sang walked onto the field, the people around began to talk.

"What’s the hurry? We’re bound to see it today; there are six matches after all. Even if she sends out a Treasure-seeking Demon, it’s not like it can go through all six like the Flame Listening Dog did." _{freёwebnoѵel.com}
