Chapter 306: I Don't Have Time for This (First Update)
You can't afford to be distracted during a battle!
Li Kun's blood pressure soared, and he was almost on the verge of spitting blood from anger.
He had never seen such a devious, cunning, and despicable person!
It was as if the word "devious" was written all over her face!
Bastard!
Such a bastard!
Qiao Sang was unaware of the curses directed at her in Li Kun's mind. At the moment, she was somewhat regretful that she hadn't instructed Fangy to attack directly just now. Moving the opponent out of the arena didn't earn any points...
"This young Qiao Sang is quite cunning. I think the Rebirth Beastmaster High School student's mindset will be a bit shattered next", a school leader said from the spectator stands.
Zone C wasn't particularly large, but it wasn't small either.
Most of the leaders sitting in the audience stands were Beastmasters who had undergone familiar replenishment. As long as they focused their attention on the center of the arena, they could hear every word the contestants were saying.
"This match is so one-sided that I can't even tell what level these two kids are at."
"One is too weak, losing without even a single move from their familiar, and the other is too strong, taking out the opponent with just one move. There's no need to study the Rebirth Beastmaster High School student, but Qiao Sang from Holy Water High School is definitely worth looking into. Unfortunately, at this rate, when our school faces her, we won't be able to gauge her true strength."
There was a reason they were here.
All the leaders from the eight schools in Group A2 were present, not only to show their support for the National School Beastmaster League but also to observe the contestants and gather useful information.
For example, the contestants' fighting styles, the skills their familiars possessed, and which aspects of their physical condition were more developed.
In short, the information they gathered was far more detailed than what was being shared among the students.
"This Flame Listener has speed and attack power, and its coordination with its Beastmaster is excellent. I doubt there are many in Group A2 who can match her."
"Don't forget, the records say she has two other familiars."
The few leaders who were discussing the matter fell silent.
What was the point of discussing it? Just to make themselves feel worse?
Just then, Wang Weidou, who had been listening silently, spoke up, "You're wrong. It's not that only a few people in Group A2 can match her."
As the vice principal of Yicheng Beastmaster High School, the second-ranked school in Group A2, Huang Yong smiled and asked, "May I ask who the fortunate students are who will face Qiao Sang?"
Just as he prepared for the vice principal of Holy Water High School to name their school's students, Wang Weidou said, "I mean, it's not that only a few people in Group A2 can match her, but rather, no one in Group A2 can match her."
Huang Yong: "..."
While the leaders in the audience stands were talking, the last contestant from Fuqi Beastmaster High School walked to the center of the arena.
The Mechanical Pet, wearing a referee badge, blew the whistle to signal the start of the match.
This time, it didn't move ten meters away but only rose two meters into the air and stopped.
"Gua gua."
The Mechanical Pet looked down at the red-and-white figure on the ground.
It was better to stay close. Otherwise, if the match ended too quickly, it would have to move back and forth, which would be troublesome.
Qiao Sang's victory was unquestionable. Fangy used two Sparks, and each one sent one opponent away.
The opponent's familiar wasn't standing still as a target. However, whenever it tried to dodge, Fangy would use Psychic Power to redirect the Spark, making it track the target like a guided missile.
In the area where the leaders were seated, everyone except Wang Weidou, who was grinning from ear to ear, had rather grim expressions.
The Junior Year Division has held two competitions, and all schools have a certain level of familiarity with their competitors from other schools.
Holy Water High School has a student named Xu Yixuan who consistently ranks in the top three within the province. The other two students from their school are around the top 30 level.
The rankings in this range can fluctuate significantly.
Between the 50th and 10th positions, with the right strategy and a bit of extra effort, anyone could end up in the 50th or 10th place.
With even more effort, making it into the top ten isn't out of the question.
After all, it has happened before.
Take, for example, last year when Zhang Shiming from Yicheng Beast Master High School rose from 48th to 24th place within the province.
As some rise, others naturally fall.
The school leaders present had all been hopeful that their schools would achieve good rankings in this year's National School Beastmaster League.
However, Holy Water High School brought in this student, Qiao Sang.
Although Qiao Sang didn't use many moves, she has two other familiars besides her Flame Listener. If those familiars are strong, it's clear to anyone with eyes that Qiao Sang is a sure bet for the top ten in the province.
This means that every student from the other schools will be pushed back one rank.
After the referee announced Qiao Sang's victory, a middle-aged man in black clothing quietly stood up and left the audience stands.
Strangely, despite sitting in the front row where he would block most people's view when he stood up, no one seemed to notice him, as if he didn't exist.
The middle-aged man walked outside the venue, looked around cautiously, and then pulled out his phone.
"Hello, Principal, it's me."
"The student Qiao Sang from Holy Water High School who joined the School Team is quite formidable. The information about her Flame Listener is true, and she hasn't summoned her other two familiars yet."
"Her Flame Listener has both fire-type and psychic-type attributes. She has mastered the Spark skill, can teleport, and her proficiency in Psychic Power is high enough to control a Mastery-level Spark and change its direction."
"From what I can see, her command skills are currently not very evident, as she has been taking out her opponents with a single move."
"However, her strategy is interesting. She managed to break one of her opponent's morale with just a few words, and it wasn't even trash talk."
"Precautions need to be taken. I've recorded her match and sent the video to your phone. Please have Ding Yanjing and the others take a look."
"I think, based on her points, she might face our school's Ding Yanjing in the next round."
"Of course, I have a lot of confidence in Ding Yanjing."
"How is your side doing?"
...
"We're already done", a man with short sideburns said, speaking through the speaker of his phone while riding a flying beast with an eight-meter wingspan high in the sky.
"All three of our students won their matches, securing 18 points each."
"By the way, did Xu Yixuan from Holy Water High School compete? If not, go check out her match. I need to hang up now; I'm hungry and need to eat."
After hanging up, the man turned to the three young men behind him and said, "You all heard that. After we finish eating, watch that video."
"Principal, I don't have time for that. My Guweihua is about to evolve", one of the young men said, lying lazily on his familiar, a lollipop in his mouth.
