Chapter 312: Almost One of Our Students!
Chapter 312: Almost One of Our Students!
Most of the matches were lively and filled with excitement, the battles between familiars and the contests between Beastmasters often igniting the crowd's enthusiasm.
Especially the thrilling comebacks where the underdog triumphs and the intense clashes between evenly matched opponents were the most exhilarating.
The audience mostly consisted of leaders from various schools, and they had seen countless matches.
For such straightforward and predictable preliminary rounds, they often showed little reaction.
They watched seriously only to analyze the contestants from other schools.
Their emotions only changed when it involved students from their own school.
However, this particular preliminary round, which was neither a comeback nor an evenly matched battle, made the entire B section briefly fall silent before the commotion erupted like dust in the air.
"Did you see that? Did you see that! How did that Flame Listener do it? It had eyes in the back of its head?!"
"How did it manage to teleport onto Seabite?!"
"The battle awareness of that Flame Listener is just too strong!"
"When the Rushing Stream Trait came out, I thought there would be a real challenge, but I didn't expect Qiao Sang from Holy Water High School to give the opponent no chance of a comeback at all..."
"To be honest, Zhou Jing from Peaceful Sea High School isn't bad, she just had bad luck and faced a freak."
"Speaking of which, I didn't have any impression of Zhou Jing in the previous two tournaments. I only remember that she had a familiar from another region, but I didn't expect her to perform so well this time."
"Normal, you probably only started watching the tournament in the past couple of years, right?"
"How did you know?"
"Because Junior Year is the last year these students can participate in the National School Beastmaster League. Many of them start to work twice as hard during their Junior Year, and it's not uncommon for underdogs to emerge. If you had followed a student from their Sophomore Year to their Junior Year, you would have known."
"What about someone like Qiao Sang? Are there always a few who suddenly appear in their Junior Year?"
"…Do you think freaks are that easy to come by?"
...
The next four matches were completely one-sided. Even though Peaceful Sea High School sent out Water Elemental Familiars, Fangy, besides being a fire-type, also had a powerful Psychic Type.
While Water-Type familiars can counter fire-type familiars, this is only true if their skills can hit.
Without a hit, it's all just talk.
With Psychic Power and teleportation, no Water-Type moves could even get close.
Qiao Sang earned all 18 points.
Qiao Sang sat in the contestant seat of Holy Water High School, waiting for Xu Yixuan to finish her match.
Beside her, He Datao was intently looking at his mobile phone.
"What are you looking at?" Qiao Sang asked.
He Datao didn't look up: "I'm checking the Forum for any information on the School Team members of the school we're facing tomorrow."
Losing two matches today had really gotten to him.
"Who are we facing tomorrow?" Qiao Sang asked.
The list of all participating schools in A2 was already out, but Qiao Sang only learned about the next opponent after each day's matches.
"Hanggang Sixth Beastmaster High School", He Datao replied.
Qiao Sang was taken aback: "Which one?"
"Hanggang Sixth Beastmaster High School", He Datao repeated, turning to her. "You haven't heard of it? It's in our city."
He paused, "But then again, this school isn't highly ranked and isn't very well-known."
Qiao Sang: "..."
How could she not know? She almost became a student there...
...
"You guys just don't know! Qiao Sang almost became one of our students!" In the audience stands, Vice Principal Chen Shengtang of Hanggang Sixth Beastmaster High School said with a heavy heart.
"Old Chen, don’t joke like that." The person beside him said helplessly, "Who is Qiao Sang? She developed her Sophomore Year Brain Domain to the Green Star Array level and has a Flame Listener as her familiar. You just saw her strength. I think she only went to Holy Water High School because of the household registration restrictions. Going to your school? That’s a dream."
"I’m serious!" Chen Shengtang said excitedly, "When she came to our school to check her Brain Domain for special recruitment, it was Teacher Zhao who was responsible for the testing! I was there the whole time!"
Qiao Sang is the only Spontaneous Awakening Special Recruitment Student since the school was founded!
How could he forget?
After Qiao Sang was tested at their school, he was so excited that he couldn’t sleep for several days, eagerly waiting for the Freshmen to enroll!
But he never expected her to go to Holy Water High School!
Heaven knows how shocked and angry he was when he saw Qiao Sang at the Junior Year Division of the National School Beastmaster League today!
If Qiao Sang had never come to their school, it would have been fine!
But the thought that such a prodigious student might have belonged to their school made Chen Shengtang feel like he was about to vomit blood!
It felt like a distant goddess suddenly asked if he wanted to get married, and he was overjoyed, preparing everything, only to find out that the goddess had registered with a high-quality third party!
It was too painful!
What made it even worse was that he had to admit that anyone with good eyesight would have chosen the third party!
The person beside him said, "Old Chen, I naturally believe that such a person exists, but is it possible that you mistook someone else for Qiao Sang? Maybe it’s just a coincidence with the same name and similar appearance."
Chen Shengtang: "……"
……
After returning to the familiar training base dormitory, Qiao Sang made the hand signs to summon Treasure Seeker.
Treasure Seeker, who had somehow learned the competition rules, knew that all participating familiars had to be summoned on-site for the battle. So, early in the morning, it had proactively asked to be put into the Beastmaster Codex.
Of course, Qiao Sang was unaware of this.
"Seek!"
As soon as Treasure Seeker appeared, it energetically spun in the air, then placed its paws on its hips, looked forward, and smiled in a way that made you want to punch it.
But the next moment, its smile froze.
"Fangy?!"
Why was Fangy standing in front of it?!
"Yah?"
Fangy looked puzzled, not understanding what was wrong.
What was wrong with standing there? Was it strange?
"Seek"
Treasure Seeker paused, looked around, and realized it wasn’t in the competition arena.
"Aren’t you supposed to compete tomorrow?" Qiao Sang, lying on the bed, said, "It’s not tomorrow yet."
Treasure Seeker: "???"
"Seek, seek!" Treasure Seeker argued.
How could it be? A whole day had already passed!
Qiao Sang said seriously, "A day is 24 hours. When you told me, it was around 3 in the morning, so the new day had just begun. It will be tomorrow after tonight."
Treasure Seeker: "!!!"
Treasure Seeker wobbled in the air, looking as if it was questioning its existence.
Feeling a pang of guilt, Qiao Sang sat up, patted Treasure Seeker’s head, and said gently,
"Study hard in the future."
Treasure Seeker: "."
