Old Zhang... so you knew... Qiao Sang withdrew his gaze.
By now, many people had seen the battle roster.
The atmosphere at Ka’nan Pet Beast Battle Field buzzed with discussion, becoming quite noisy.
"Wow! Li Tang Beast Taming High School against Shengshui Middle School? How come these two great schools are facing off so early this year?"
"Qiao Sang seems so unlucky, man. The competition’s only been going for two days, and he’s already gone up against Ruan Yunwen and now Ding Yanjing."
"I know that kid Ding Yanjing; he has won first place in the province twice in a row at the National School Beast Taming Championships. Super strong."
"I remember him, he sorted out yesterday’s match in a minute with his Blink Raven."
"Qiao Sang is no slouch either; he used his Treasure-seeking Demon to win two consecutive matches, and in one of them, he even took on a Slick Owl."
"These two facing off? Today’s matches are going to be exciting."
Today’s matchups, no, should I say this round of eliminations, the biggest highlight is Ding Yanjing versus Qiao Sang.
...
Shengshui Middle School.
Class 3, Grade 12.
It was currently a break between classes.
A boy sitting in the back corner erected a thick textbook, pretending to read intently.
Suddenly, he stood up sharply, and the book tumbled down.
Exclaiming with the now visible phone in hand, the boy blurted out, "Holy shit!"
The rest of the classmates still in the room immediately turned their attention to him. "What happened?"
"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang is up against Ding Yanjing!" the boy said excitedly.
Speaking of Ding Yanjing, there was hardly anyone in the class who didn’t know him, especially since they had Xue Chuhua, who had quit the school team because of Ding Yanjing.
Back then, it was a big topic of conversation at Shengshui Middle School for quite a while.
All the classmates were plunged into a state of shock and worry.
If anyone had the clearest understanding and the most wariness toward Ding Yanjing, it was undoubtedly the seniors, his classmates.
Although they had received news of Qiao Sang defeating Ruan Yunwen yesterday, they, who couldn’t watch the live video, also got word that Ruan Yunwen, like in the previous two years, suddenly lost control of her Slick Owl.
A High Level Pet Beast that was out of control would surely be severely compromised in strength.
Even though Ding Yanjing didn’t have a High Level Pet Beast, his strength was widely recognized as the best among high school students in the province.
Was their school’s Shengshui beacon going to stop here?
At that moment, a boy with a sharp jawline and black hair covering half his forehead, sitting by the window second-to-last row, suddenly stood up and walked out of the classroom.
Seeing this, his desk mate called out, "Xue Chuhua! Where are you going?"
"Going to ask the teacher for leave," Xue Chuhua answered without turning back.
The desk mate continued to call out, "The teacher won’t approve it!"
"Then consider it skipping class," Xue Chuhua said before he left the classroom.
The expressions of the classmates in the room were mixed. Everyone knew what he was off to do - for sure it was to watch the live broadcast of the match.
Twenty minutes later, Xue Chuhua, who was by then in his dorm room, held his phone and watched the live video of the provincial elimination matches, his eyes filled with hope.
...
Ka’nan Pet Beast Battle Field.
The competition had been underway for over two hours and each match had been fairly predictable so far.
Most of the audience present was accustomed to seeing plenty of beast taming battles.
Once a Pet Beast was summoned and made its move, everyone had a pretty good idea of who would win and who would lose.
"Qiao Sang, with her extreme talent, competes at a higher level than her seniors and has easily crushed her way here." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
