Chapter 290: Don't Worry, You Won't Die.
"Walk through the main gate?" Liu Qijia paused, his mind struggling to process the idea.
The first thought that came to his mind was: What kind of skills could possibly allow someone to walk right past the security guard's watchful eyes?
The school's main gate was equipped with a human sensor, and any movement would trigger an alert in the security room.
Even if the security guard happened to be in the bathroom, the 24-hour rotating Omnisight would immediately notice anyone leaving the school through unconventional means.
This was a lesson learned through the blood and tears of countless freshmen!
Yet, Qiao Sang said the words "walk through the main gate" so casually!
No wonder she was the one who taught the Treasure Hunter Demon the Tile Split technique!
What countless freshmen couldn't achieve, she did with such ease!
Liu Qijia, lying on the ground, looked up at Qiao Sang, feeling as if her figure had suddenly grown immense!
At that moment, Xiang Chengfei asked Qiao Sang, "Will you be okay walking through the main gate?"
"I'll be fine, I'm a day student", Qiao Sang replied.
Liu Qijia: "……"
...
Hongjiang District, Liber Fighting Gym.
As a specialized training hall for Fighting-type Pet Beasts, it was filled with numerous Fighting-type Pet Beasts and their Beastmasters.
Fighting-type Pet Beasts were different from other attribute familiars; during training, their Beastmasters could join in and train alongside them.
In one of the rooms at the Liber Training Hall, a middle-aged man was doing a one-handed handstand, and beside him was a familiar performing the same action.
"Switch."
As the man spoke, he naturally switched from supporting himself with his right hand to his left.
"Rocky."
The familiar beside him also switched to its left hand.
In a corner, a familiar with a sandy-brown body, a spike on its head, and bandages wrapped around its wrists and ankles was trying to mimic the middle-aged man's handstand.
It started by placing both hands on the ground, its head touching the floor, and slowly attempted the handstand.
Once it had both hands on the ground, it slowly lifted its left hand.
Immediately, it showed a pained expression.
The next second.
"Bang!"
It lost its balance and fell flat on the ground.
"Spiky..."
The familiar with bandages on its limbs looked dejected.
The commotion caught the middle-aged man's attention.
"Spike, why are you here again? Didn't I tell you to rest and not train for a couple of days?" The man, still in his handstand, looked at the familiar with bandages on its limbs.
"Rocky." The familiar beside him nodded in agreement.
"Spiky..."
Spike lowered its head, lips pursed, and seemed weighed down by lead, lacking any spirit.
Seeing this, the man ended his handstand, walked to the table by the wall, picked up a water cup, took a few sips, and then said to Spike:
"Don't rush. Injuries are a common part of being a Fighting-type Pet Beast. You'll get better."
"Spiky..."
Spike wasn't consoled. It lowered its head and walked out of the room.
"Rocky..."
The familiar still performing the handstand looked worried.
"I know", the man sighed. "It's a matter of the heart. We need its Beastmaster to come and take it home."
At that moment, the harsh ring of a mobile phone broke the silence.
The man grabbed the phone from the table. The caller ID read "Old Fang."
He pressed the answer button.
"Dad, it's me!"
...
"This is where my dad works", Liu Qijia said, pointing to a building with a sign that read "Liber Training Hall." "He usually trains familiars here and probably hasn't gone home yet at this time."
He lifted his leg and walked inside.
A Beastmaster who specialized in training Fighting-type Pet Beasts... As Qiao Sang recalled Zhang Shuzhou's introduction of Liu Qijia's father, she followed behind.
At that moment, the Treasure Seeker perched on Qiao Sang's head suddenly twitched its nose, as if it had caught a pleasant scent. It looked entranced and drifted toward a certain direction without realizing it.
Liu Qijia had just entered the Training Hall and hadn't taken more than a few steps when a burly uncle approached and greeted him:
"Isn't this Liu Yao's son? What brings you here? Don't you have school today?"
Liu Qijia kept a straight face and replied, "Evening study session is off. I brought a classmate to see my dad about something, Uncle Fang. Where is he?"
Uncle Fang didn't answer immediately but asked, "Your classmate? Where is your classmate?"
Liu Qijia was taken aback, turned his head to look around, and then was dumbfounded.
Where's Qiao Sang?!
"Call your dad first", Uncle Fang suddenly answered his earlier question. "He's here, but I don't know which room he's in."
...
On the other side, Qiao Sang followed the Treasure Seeker, shouting, "Where are you going!"
She was puzzled. What was up with the Treasure Seeker?
Why had it suddenly drifted away?
"Xun..."
The Treasure Seeker sniffed the air, moving in a certain direction.
Before long, it stopped at a corner.
"Xunxun!"
The Treasure Seeker excitedly pointed to a familiar in the corner, practicing a handstand.
This guy smells so good! I want to absorb it!
Qiao Sang was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized something and looked at the familiar in the corner with shock.
Is this Spike about to die?!
Qiao Sang recognized the familiar at first glance.
Spike, a combat-type Beginner Beast, could spin like a top in battle. When it spun at high speed, the spike on its head could drill it into the ground.
It was incredibly resilient and could survive in any environment.
In theory, Spike should at least evolve into an Intermediate Beast and shouldn't be on the verge of dying at such a young age. Qiao Sang thought to herself.
But when she heard the Treasure Seeker's exclamation, she immediately recalled the old Grandma and her Ghost Lantern from their first mission.
Back then, the Treasure Seeker had also wanted to absorb the death aura.
While Qiao Sang was lost in thought, the Spike in front of her, which was doing a handstand, slowly lifted its left hand, trying to balance on one hand.
However, its right hand wobbled and couldn't support it for more than two seconds.
"Bang!"
Spike fell over.
This confirmed Qiao Sang's suspicions.
After all, Spike was a Fighting-type Pet Beast.
For Fighting-type Pet Beasts, handstands were a routine exercise. How could it fail so easily?
Qiao Sang looked at Spike with a complex expression.
This is still a child!
"Jianjian." Spike's head drooped, looking disheartened.
At that moment, it heard a human voice.
"Lulu, give it a Healing Light."
"Lulu."
Before Spike could react, a strong blue light shone on its body.
"Jianjian?"
Spike was stunned, then felt a warm sensation all over.
It felt like something had changed within it.
When the blue light faded, the person who had spoken stood in front of it and said, "Don't worry, you won't die."
Spike: "???"
