Chapter 279: Lick It Awake!
Chapter 279: Lick It Awake!
The Junior Year School Team?
Qiao Sang hesitated for a moment. "That doesn't seem right."
To be honest, the training in the School Team didn't help her much. Since it wasn't very beneficial, she might as well stay in the Second-Year Team, where she was already comfortable and familiar with the environment. There was no need to change things up.
"What's not right about it?" Liu Yao asked. "You're going to participate in the Junior Year segment of the National School Beastmaster League. Staying in the Second-Year Team would be the wrong move."
"The training focus for Sophomore and Junior Years is different. The Second-Year Team is currently focused on building synergy with familiars and the diverse application of skills. The Junior Year School Team, on the other hand, focuses on practical combat training."
"If you want to perform well in the Junior Year segment of the National School Beastmaster League, you need to train with the Junior Year School Team. You've met Sun Boyi, the coach responsible for the Special Recruitment, right? He's the coach of the Junior Year School Team."
Qiao Sang's heart stirred. "I understand."
Practical combat—what Fangy and the others really needed was more of that! Normally, combat experience and skill proficiency are honed through actual battles, gradually improving over time.
Initially, she had decided to become a sparring partner to get more combat opportunities, but unfortunately, school left her with little time for that. Now, if she could get regular combat practice at school, it would be perfect.
Of course, the most important part was earning points!
...
In the office reserved for the School Team teachers.
Zheng Guoping was animated as he spoke. "When I first saw Qiao Sang during the Special Recruitment, I knew she was special. How many ordinary students bond with a Fangflare as their first familiar?"
You didn't say that at the time... Qin Wen rolled her eyes from her chair.
Zheng Guoping continued excitedly. "Three familiars, a total of three familiars! None of the freshmen at Litan Beastmaster High can compare to Qiao Sang."
He suddenly thought of something and raised his voice. "No way! I need to go see the principal. Qiao Sang can definitely represent the Sophomore Year in this year's National School Beastmaster League!"
With that, Zheng Guoping made a move to leave.
"Stop right there!" Qin Wen quickly called out to him.
No way, Qiao Sang was supposed to represent the Sophomore Year in the competition!
The other students in the Sophomore Year were on a completely different level from Qiao Sang, which was why she was initially placed in the Sophomore Year for training and would return to the Junior Year team during the competition. This was all agreed upon in advance!
"What's the problem?" Zheng Guoping stopped and turned to ask.
"You're asking me what the problem is?" Qin Wen frowned. "What did we agree on? If Qiao Sang participates in the Sophomore Year competition, what about the Sophomore Year team?"
Zheng Guoping chuckled. "Qiao Sang is such a genius, participating in the Sophomore Year competition is too easy for her. Besides, it's not unheard of for lower-year students to compete in higher-year segments in Hanggang City. Since Qiao Sang has always trained in the Second-Year Team, it's not unreasonable for her to participate in the Sophomore Year competition. After all, any honor she brings will be for our school."
"I've heard there are several promising students in the Sophomore Year. You can find a reserve to take her place. Qiao Sang would perform better in the Sophomore Year competition, and pressure leads to improvement, as you often say."
"You just want the Distinguished Coach Medal." Qin Wen bluntly pointed out. "We already agreed that Qiao Sang would train with you, and the main coach's reward would go to you, but she will ultimately represent the Sophomore Year in the competition."
Every coach wants the honor of receiving an award medal. The medal represents a coach's achievements and status.
Higher status means better opportunities and more choices, and higher pay, of course.
According to the conditions stipulated in the Coach Reward Act, any head coach whose student wins first place in a provincial competition organized by the state will be awarded the Distinguished Coach Medal and a special prize of 1 million Union Coins.
The honor medals are divided into special, first, second, and third class, with the special class being the highest.
These awards are approved and issued by the National Bureau of Beastmaster Combat and are widely publicized in newspapers and on television. No coach can refuse such an honor.
If Qiao Sang were to participate in the Sophomore Year competition, the registered coach would naturally be Zheng Guoping, who is currently teaching the second-year team.
"Can't I just give up my head coach's reward?" Zheng Guoping, aware of his wrongdoing, immediately lowered his voice.
"No way!" Qin Wen said angrily.
Who forces someone to take money... Zheng Guoping grumbled to himself.
For a moment, Qin Wen and Zheng Guoping glared at each other, neither saying a word.
At that moment, a shrill ringtone echoed through the office.
Qin Wen and Zheng Guoping turned to look. It was Sun Boyi's mobile phone.
Sun Boyi, who had been quietly eating breakfast and scrolling through his phone, glanced at the caller ID and answered, "Vice Principal, you're looking for me?"
The other end of the line said something, and Sun Boyi, who had just taken a sip of soy milk, choked.
"Cough, cough... What? Qiao Sang is going to participate in the Junior Year competition?!"
Qin Wen: "!!!"
Zheng Guoping: "!!!"
...
On the other side, Liu Yao put down his mobile phone and said, "I've already spoken with Mr. Sun. You can go directly to Training Ground 1 after school."
"Okay", Qiao Sang nodded.
"Um", Liu Yao suddenly said, "Can you summon your Glacialia for me to see?"
Without a word, Qiao Sang formed the hand seals and summoned Lulu.
Even if the Vice Principal hadn't asked, she would have suggested it herself.
Lulu was, as expected, still sleeping.
Qiao Sang bent down and picked her up.
Liu Yao's eyes lit up at the sight of Glacialia, and he leaned in for a closer look.
After a moment, he frowned and said, "Why does your Glacialia seem to be lacking rest?"
As expected of a Familiar Trainer... Qiao Sang was a bit worried, "Since it evolved, it has been secretly training during the nights when it should be sleeping. I don't know what to do. If this continues, it will definitely have a negative impact on its body."
Liu Yao was taken aback, "Doesn't Glacialia know the Healing Light skill?"
This question completely bewildered Qiao Sang.
Healing Light... Vice Principal's meaning is...
Liu Yao continued, "Healing Light is an Inherited Skill of Aquariana. It can eliminate all Negative Conditions, such as mental fatigue, lack of sleep, and physical exhaustion."
Qiao Sang was silent for a few seconds before asking, "If Glacialia uses Healing Light when it's tired, does it mean it doesn't need to sleep?"
Liu Yao thought for a moment and said, "Theoretically, yes."
Qiao Sang: "!!!"
Good grief, if that's true, it would mean that it can stay awake 24 hours a day and still maintain peak mental state!
Qiao Sang immediately decided to try it out, "Treasure Seeker! Lick it awake!"
"Seek~"
Treasure Seeker immediately appeared and extended its tongue to lick Lulu.
Lulu, who was in a deep sleep, shuddered as if from a nightmare, showing a pained expression, then rolled over and continued sleeping.
"Seek!"
Treasure Seeker pouted, clearly unsatisfied that Lulu hadn't woken up from its lick attack.
It extended its tongue again and licked harder.
"Lulu"
Lulu's expression struggled for a moment, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Qiao Sang, seeing this, quickly called out, "Lulu! Use Healing Light on yourself!"
"Lulu"
Though still half-asleep and drowsy, Lulu instinctively followed Qiao Sang's command.
A blue light shone.
When the blue light faded, a wide-eyed, energetic Glacialia appeared before them.
"Lulu!"
