"It looks like we’re in for a big battle; we need to hold out for 83 minutes," Qiao Sang glanced at the countdown timer on the virtual panel and said.
"Steel Guardian." Gangbao saw pairs of glaring eyes looking up at them and instantly understood, a look of interest crossing his face.
"Ya Ya!"
Yaobao called out excitedly, and its body slowly began to enlarge.
Qiao Sang, seeing this, quickly interjected, "Don’t grow bigger!"
Under the white fluctuation, its body abruptly stopped growing around one meter in size, then slowly shrank back to its original form.
"Ya Ya?"
Yaobao, which had shrunk back to the size of a Fire-Toothed Dog, barked in confusion.
Weren’t they about to engage in a major battle? Why not grow bigger?
If you transformed back to your original form, the new students coming over to teach her a lesson would probably be reduced by half in number... Seeing Yaobao revert in time, Qiao Sang felt slightly relieved inside.
It wasn’t that she looked down on the new students of her year, but a General-level Pet Beast was undoubtedly a powerhouse among the freshmen. If she were in their shoes, she definitely wouldn’t waste time on a Beast Tamer with a General-level Pet Beast but would choose to fight someone with a similar strength to gain points.
After all, there wasn’t much time left for the assessment.
However, with Lubao next to her, who had just started to feel a bit better in the past few days, if she were to make it clear, it might affect the mentality again... Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said:
"Others don’t know your true strength; when an opponent approaches, you can catch them by surprise."
"Ya Ya!"
Upon hearing this, Yaobao immediately looked serious.
It understood!
"Xun Xun?"
Xiao Xunbao gathered the megaphone into a ring and looked towards the Pet Beasts that had begun to move towards them, deploying various skills or using the simplest, most rustic method—an umbrella—and barked, asking if they were just going to let them get close.
Having been invisible throughout, it naturally knew its Beast Tamer’s intentions.
"Of course not," Qiao Sang focused her gaze on the diverse Pet Beasts below: "Now, it’s up to you."
"Bingke."
No sooner had she spoken than Lubao, one step ahead, opened its mouth and exhaled a white misty fog.
The white fog spread out like dense smoke, quickly enveloping everything in front of it.
Immediately afterward, immense water currents gathered around Lubao, its entire body resembling a massive blue water column plunging down from the rooftop.
Qiao Sang stood on the rooftop, overlooking everything below.
Despite the white expanse before her, the movement of Lubao could still be discerned as blue shadows constantly changed trajectory below.
As the blue shadows shifted, cries of Pet Beasts in agony came from below.
...
"It’s mist, does anyone have a beast that can conjure wind skills? Hurry up and blow this mist away!" a black student said anxiously from under the eaves.
"Like I need you to tell me," a brown-haired girl glanced at her own Pet Beast and said, "Gale Eagle, Whirlwind!"
"Whirlwind!"
A gray-black feathered eagle-type Pet Beast, standing over three meters tall, stepped forward and spread its wings, then flapped them vigorously.
A wild gust of wind immediately kicked up, sweeping away everything in its path.
At the same time, there were not a few Pet Beasts using such skills.
It’s just an intermediate skill with a relatively high proficiency. So many High Level Pet Beasts are using high-tier skills to counter this move; quite showy indeed... As Qiao Sang watched the scene below, she couldn’t help but feel moved.
Soon, the white fog was blown away, revealing the shapes of fallen Pet Beasts on the ground.
"Xiao Xunbao," Qiao Sang called out softly.
"Xun Xun~"
Not needing further explanation, Xiao Xunbao understood her Beast Tamer’s intention; it barked, and blue light flashed across its eyes.
