The purple feathers changed direction and reattached themselves to Gangbao’s body, as if they had never flown out.
Qiao Sang walked closer and peeled off the protective film on the item.
She found four metal boxes of varying sizes.
Well protected... Qiao Sang picked up the smallest metal box, ready to see how to open it.
Just then, a white light suddenly flashed on the edge of the metal box in her hand.
Immediately after, the box opened automatically.
One by one, silver pieces of armor were revealed before her eyes.
Judging by the size, they seemed to be tailor-made for Xiao Xunbao.
"Did you buy defensive gear? You’re not planning to use them in the finals, are you?" Marlal walked over and, seeing the items that emerged from the box, his tone was one of surprise.
He was somewhat familiar with Blue Star and understood its significant differences from Chao Su Star.
Like their attitudes towards gear, for instance.
On Chao Su Star, the majority of competitive battles had no strict rules regarding the use of gear and Spirit Marks. If you had the means to use gear and Spirit Marks, then you would use them.
They saw gear and Spirit Marks as part of one’s strength too.
But on Blue Star...
It’s said that many Professional Beast Tamers only use gear in the wild and scorn its use in competitive battles. They believe that winning a match based solely on the Pet Beast’s own strength is more meaningful.
Therefore, regular large-scale Pet Beast competitive battles generally don’t allow the use of gear and Spirit Marks.
Qiao Sang, hailing from Blue Star and being an extraordinarily talented Professional Beast Tamer, should have been even more constrained by this ideology, disdaining the use of gear. Yet, here she was buying some at this critical moment. Could it be that during her exchange on Chao Su Star, she had assimilated to the local customs?
"It’s not something I bought; it was sent to me." As Qiao Sang spoke, she picked up one of the silver pieces to examine it and realized it was frighteningly light, not as heavy as she had imagined.
Marlal was startled for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening: "Did the brand ask you to promote their gear in tonight’s finals?"
That wasn’t entirely incorrect... Qiao Sang hummed in response, put down the piece of armor, and picked up the instruction manual inside to read.
[Lightweight Defender Armor]
[Function: Defense]
[Introduction: Enhances defensive power, virtually weightless, wearing it feels like wearing nothing. During use, the armor will light up colors according to the Pet Beast’s attribute, adding a cool effect.]
[Note: Spectral-type Pet Beasts should use with caution, because even if they become invisible, the armor will still be visible.]
Qiao Sang: "???"
If Spectral-type Pet Beasts should use it with caution, then why send armor that fits Xiao Xunbao?
"Which Pet Beast brand is it that you’re willing to help promote?" Marlal inquired.
"It’s called ’Light Path.’" Qiao Sang suppressed the urge to criticize the gear and said: "The person who established the brand was my high school classmate on Chao Su Star."
A high school classmate... Marlal suddenly looked conflicted.
That is to say, the person who founded this brand is still just a freshman in college...
Is this gear reliable...
Marlal’s desire to learn more about the gear evaporated, and he went back to sitting on the couch.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated.
Qiao Sang pulled her phone out of her pocket to see that it was Hughlis calling.
She paused for a moment before choosing to answer.
Hughlis’ voice came through the speaker: "How is it, did you receive the delivery?"
"I got it..." Qiao Sang paused, then asked, "Since Spectral-type Pet Beasts should be cautious, why send me gear that fits the Ghost Ring King?"
"I was thinking of preparing a set for each of your Pet Beasts," said Hughlis cheerfully. "Ghost Ring King may not use it during a match, but it can still be used regularly. Only the invisibility effect is compromised, but the main defensive function remains intact."
Hearing this, Qiao Sang’s brows relaxed: "Thanks."
"What are you thanking me for? You’re a shareholder, so you already have a share in all of the gear," Hughlis laughed. "As long as you can give it a good promotion in tonight’s match."
"Don’t worry," Qiao Sang replied. "I will use this gear in tonight’s match."
Today was the finals; if she didn’t use it now, there would be no chance later...
After a few more moments of casual conversation, Qiao Sang hung up the call.
"Xun Xun?"
Just at that moment, Xiao Xunbao floated over, looking at the items laid out in front of its Beast Tamer with a curious expression.
What’s this?
"It’s defensive gear," Qiao Sang explained.
