Chapter 1064: Bond Synergy Contest
Chapter 1064: Bond Synergy Contest
Migala glanced over, finding the situation both amusing and inexplicably bitter. "The Thunder Dragon seems quite hostile toward any familiar that gets close to you."
Qiao Sang looked at the Thunder Dragon, seeming to understand something, and spoke to calm it down. "Don't worry, my next Bond Slot is reserved for you."
"Tingting..."
The Thunder Dragon understood, and the yellow electric arcs around its body dissipated.
Migala was taken aback, then asked with a peculiar expression, "Do you have some special constitution that attracts familiars?"
Qiao Sang was also taken aback. "Can humans have a special constitution like familiars do?"
"If you don't have any special constitution, how come Dragon-type familiars are so clingy to you even without bonding, and Clear Hidden Sprite is willing to bond with you?" Migala's tone carried a hint of jealously.
Initially, when she found out that Qiao Sang had bonded with Qingqing Ni, she felt shocked and incredulous, but not this jealous. Now, seeing an unbonded Dragon-type familiar acting as if it was afraid other familiars would take Qiao Sang away, she genuinely felt a pang of envy.
After all, she had endured countless cold glances to bond with her Dragon-type familiar.
Even with her exceptional talent and strong background, which had left her peers far behind, her Dragon-type familiar had never given her any special attention.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and answered seriously, "Maybe it's because of my charisma."
Migala: "..."
As they talked, the two arrived at the villa entrance.
A sudden gale swept in, rushing through the gaps in the villa's door and disappearing.
"Meimei."
Meichouni handed over a flower.
"Is this for me?" Qiao Sang asked.
"Meimei." Meichouni nodded.
Qiao Sang took the flower, thanked Meichouni, and then said, "You've already given me two bouquets today."
"Meimei~"
Meichouni scratched its head, looking rather shy.
Migala couldn't stand seeing Qiao Sang so charismatic among familiars and pressed the code to enter first.
"Do you want to bond with me by giving me flowers?" Qiao Sang asked straightforwardly.
"Tingting..."
Upon hearing this, the Thunder Dragon once again glared at Meichouni with a displeased expression.
"Meimei..."
Meichouni hadn't expected the human to be so direct. It hesitated for a moment before nodding honestly.
"Tingting!"
The Thunder Dragon's body was instantly enveloped in crackling yellow electric arcs.
"Meimei!"
Meichouni frowned, sensing the Thunder Dragon's hostility, and jumped back a large step.
"Thunder Treasure." Qiao Sang intervened.
The Thunder Dragon turned its head, giving Qiao Sang a look that said, "You're actually being mean to me for its sake", and struggled to jump down from Qiao Sang's arms, quickly scurrying inside with a pouty and angry expression.
Qiao Sang: "..."
Am I being mean?
Am I being mean!
I just called its name!
"Sorry", Qiao Sang said, slightly frustrated.
"Meimei."
Meichouni shook its head.
"I mean, if you want to bond with me, don't waste your time on me", Qiao Sang explained bluntly. "I don't have any empty Bond Pages, so I can't bond with any more familiars. Even if I break through my brain domain, I already have a bonding target."
"Meimei?"
Meichouni seemed unsurprised and pointed in the direction the Thunder Dragon had left, calling out.
"Steel Chief."
Steel Treasure's voice suddenly echoed in Qiao Sang's mind, translating for her.
It was asking if the bond object was the Dragon-type creature that had just left.
"Exactly."
Qiao Sang nodded.
"Tingting..."
The Thunder Dragon, who had been eavesdropping by the door, stared blankly at the slender figure not far away. Then, it seemed to realize something and showed a regretful expression.
"Meimei."
Meichouni smiled and called out, indicating that it was fine. Even if they couldn't bond, she would still give the flowers.
With that, she turned and left.
It seems everything has been explained... Qiao Sang, holding the bouquet, turned and walked into the villa.
Seeing this, the Thunder Dragon's body stiffened, and it quickly crawled away.
Qiao Sang closed the door.
"Qingqing!"
Qingbao appeared a few meters away, pinching his nose and pointing at the bouquet with a look of disgust.
Qiao Sang looked at the bouquet and nodded.
"It does smell a bit. Let's put it somewhere far away."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qingbao eagerly used his wind control to send the bouquet to the outdoor training ground.
"Where's Tingbao?"
Qiao Sang looked around and asked.
"He's over there." Migala, sitting on the sofa in the living room with her mobile phone, gestured toward behind the curtains with her eyes.
Qiao Sang followed her gaze and saw the Thunder Dragon hiding behind the curtains, only its tail visible.
Suddenly, its head poked out. Seeing its Beastmaster looking at it, the Thunder Dragon's body stiffened, and then it seemed to gather its courage and crawled out.
Just as it was about to speak, Qiao Sang explained:
"I was just explaining to Meichouni that I already have a bond object in mind, so it shouldn't send flowers anymore. I called your name to remind you not to Discharge so easily."
"Tingting..."
The Thunder Dragon was taken aback, then awkwardly nodded, indicating that it understood.
It then moved toward Qiao Sang and climbed up his leg.
Though it has a bit of a temper, it's still reasonable and easy to calm... Qiao Sang reflected, picking up the Thunder Dragon and holding it in his arms.
Migala averted her gaze, seemingly unable to watch.
Qiao Sang, holding the Thunder Dragon, sat on the sofa and picked up the remote to turn on the TV.
He remembered that Teacher Migala had mentioned the Flame Sky Star Battle Channel, and he hadn't watched it since he arrived two days ago...
As soon as he turned it on, he heard the host say:
"Recently, the 'Bond Synergy Contest' will be held. Any Beastmaster and familiar who wish to bond can register, with no age limit. The champion will receive one year of cultivation expenses after bonding, and the runner-up and third place will receive half a year of cultivation expenses after bonding."
"Registration starts at 9 AM tomorrow, and the website is..."
"You can participate in this match", Migala suddenly said.
"What is the Bond Synergy Contest? I don't quite understand", Qiao Sang asked.
"It's the match I mentioned earlier", Migala explained. "Some Beastmasters and familiars who are considering bonding will participate in a Battlematch to see if they have good synergy and can get along. Such matches and events are not uncommon on Flame Sky Star."
"Thunder Dragon is now at a stage where it can be trained, and you can take it to participate."
She paused, glancing at the Thunder Dragon subtly, and added:
"Many wild beast companions who want to bond will watch these matches. If you feel that you and Thunder Dragon don't have good synergy during the battle, you can reconsider bonding."
