Chapter 369: As Long as It Isn't Attacked
Chapter 369: As Long as It Isn’t Attacked
Qiao Sang studied the familiar in front of her, a Unified Owl standing over three meters tall with a crown of brown wavy feathers on its head.
Due to its large size and the relatively low number of Beastmasters with High-Class Beast Companions, most familiars seen on the streets were only Intermediate.
Additionally, because of the community dynamics, even though there were many Beastmasters bonded with Puffbirds, this was the first time she had seen a Unified Owl in real life since crossing over.
Meanwhile, the number of viewers on the Live Streaming Platform continued to rise.
The chat stream was buzzing.
"Family, who would have thought! I finally got to see Qiao Sang’s live stream!"
"Where’s Glacialia? Why hasn’t Glacialia been sent out yet?"
"Thank goodness the Live Streaming Platform is working now."
"Hahaha, the size difference between these two familiars is so funny."
"Where are all the Ancient Fog Region folks?"
"The talent from all the regional universities is amazing. I was expecting to see Glacialia, but now I’m seeing a High-Class Beast Companion. I think this one is the Advanced Form of the Chubby Dove."
"Heaven, if this Ghost-type Companion Beast loses, the next match will be Glacialia against a High-Class Beast Companion!"
"I want to see Glacialia, but not like this, where it’s being dominated!"
The competition had reached the Elimination Stage, and the remaining contestants from the province were all gathered in one place. As a result, the live stream video for Zhehai Province was the only one left.
After the Group Stage, the platform team had temporarily formed a management and maintenance department, finally resolving the system’s capacity issues.
Of course, this wasn’t the platform’s fault.
Who would have thought that a mere provincial high school competition would attract millions of viewers?
Not to mention, in the Ancient Fog Region alone, millions of people were currently watching the live stream.
...
At the Kainan Beast Battle Arena.
The ground sank, transforming into a sandy pit.
"Qu!"
The whistle signaling the start of the match sounded.
Almost simultaneously, the Treasure Seeker and the Unified Owl vanished from their spots.
The Unified Owl soared into the sky, while the Treasure Seeker went into stealth mode.
"Seeker..."
The Treasure Seeker looked up at the massive familiar in the sky, its expression thoughtful.
This thing feels like it’s on Big Brother Yabao’s level...
No way...
Am I that impressive in my Beastmaster’s eyes...
"Gale", Ruan Yunwen scanned the arena, not seeing any sign of the Treasure Hunter Demon, and quickly issued her command.
"Unified Slide."
The Unified Owl flapped its wings downward with great force, sending a powerful gust of wind across the arena. The sand and gravel below instantly began to whirl around.
Dust filled the air, turning the sky above half the arena a muddy brown.
It was impossible to stay in such a dusty environment.
"Seeker..."
The Treasure Seeker pinched its nose with its claw, looking disdainful, and teleported to the clear sky above.
So, it’s out... Ruan Yunwen, seeing the Treasure Hunter Demon suddenly appear in the sky, felt a vague sense of unease, but she had no time to ponder it. She quickly shouted:
"Right now, Wind Blade!"
With a flap of its wings, Unified Owl unleashed dozens of wind-condensed blades that surged forward like a wave, one after another, toward the direction where Treasure Seeker was located.
The Wind Blade cast by the High-Class Beast Companion was vastly more powerful than that of an Intermediate Beast Pet.
The dozens of Wind Blades whistled through the air with a shrill sound, even reaching the ears of many in the audience stands, giving a clear indication of their destructive force.
At this moment, many in the audience stands were already prepared for the end of the match.
However, the expected scene of the Treasure Hunter Demon being struck and falling to the ground did not occur.
All the Wind Blades missed their target.
Several Wind Blades struck the ground, producing a dull explosion, sending rocks flying.
One could sense that if these blades had hit the Treasure Hunter Demon, the outcome of the match would have been decided immediately.
Ruan Yunwen stared blankly at the Treasure Hunter Demon that suddenly appeared before her, her mind struggling to process the sudden change. Her calm expression, which had been consistent throughout, instantly froze, leaving her stunned.
Who could tell her why the Treasure Hunter Demon was in the air one second and then appeared right in front of her the next?!
It looked like teleportation!
But that wasn't mentioned in the intel!
Unlike the preliminary round, which was almost entirely watched by the audience from Hongrao Town, the current audience had a more comprehensive understanding of familiars. Many immediately guessed that the Treasure Hunter Demon had used teleportation.
Some were bold enough to guess, while others hesitated.
"Damn! How can this Treasure Hunter Demon teleport?!"
"Hisss... It must be teleportation. I remember Ghost-type Companion Beasts don't have similar skills."
"If I'm not mistaken, this Treasure Hunter Demon probably has Psychic-type attributes as well."
"Ghost-type plus Psychic-type... How much would that cost?..."
"Too bad it was paired against an opponent with a High-Class Beast Companion. Otherwise, this Treasure Hunter Demon alone could have secured a top spot."
"Although this Treasure Hunter Demon's attributes are incredible, it's still too fragile. Just one hit from the Unified Owl and it would be out."
...
In mid-air, Unified Owl turned its head to look at Treasure Seeker, its eyes growing increasingly sharp. Its wings flapped more urgently.
It wanted to attack again immediately, but it glanced at its Beastmaster. Seeing that she said nothing, it restrained itself.
Qiao Sang observed the frantic flapping of Unified Owl's wings, her thoughts racing.
This Unified Owl seemed willing to cooperate with its Beastmaster, but Ruan Yunwen and its thoughts were not yet in perfect sync...
Qiao Sang gave Treasure Seeker a meaningful look, signaling it to pay attention to the ground.
At that moment, Treasure Seeker was still warily watching Unified Owl, but the moment Qiao Sang signaled, it seemed to understand through telepathy and looked over.
"Seek~"
Treasure Seeker instantly understood the signal. It raised its short toe, and its eyes glowed blue.
In the next second, a large cloud of dust swept toward Unified Owl.
When Treasure Hunter Demon used teleport, Ruan Yunwen was initially taken aback, unsure of what was happening. But when she saw the sand being controlled, she finally realized:
This is a freakish familiar that combines both Ghost-type and Psychic-type traits!
"Gale!"
Ruan Yunwen took a deep breath, quickly regaining her composure, and shouted.
"Unified Slide!"
Unified Owl flapped its wings with all its might, creating a powerful gale. The sand controlled by Psychic Power instantly disintegrated and changed direction.
Qiao Sang gave Treasure Seeker a meaningful glance toward Unified Owl's position.
"Xun~"
Treasure Seeker understood and vanished from sight.
Ruan Yunwen's face darkened as she quickly scanned the area in all directions.
"Unified Slide!!"
Just as she glanced around, she heard Unified Owl's angry voice.
Ruan Yunwen instinctively looked up and was stunned.
She saw Treasure Hunter Demon perched on Unified Owl's head!
A fragile Ghost-type Companion Beast getting up close? Ruan Yunwen couldn't fathom what her two-years-younger opponent was thinking.
"Unified Slide!!!"
Unified Owl frantically shook its head, trying to dislodge the annoying creature on top of it.
Compared to Unified Owl, Ruan Yunwen remained relatively calm.
She quickly formulated a plan in her mind.
"Flip Flight!"
Flip Flight wasn't a skill but a flying technique that allowed for mid-air turns, spins, and somersaults before continuing the flight.
"Unified Slide!"
Unified Owl had intended to perform a Brave Bird Assault to slam the creature on its head into the ground, but upon hearing its Beastmaster's command, it swiftly changed direction in mid-air.
Just as Unified Owl was about to perform the flip, it felt a sudden lightness on its head.
"Unified Slide……"
Unified Owl paused, then turned its head, sensing something.
It saw the annoying creature making a "please" gesture, as if watching a performance.
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker felt that this wasn't enough. It raised its left claw, showing a taunting expression with its middle short toe, then displayed a feather it had just plucked from Unified Owl's head.
"Unified Slide!!!"
Unified Owl's feathers bristled with rage, and without a word, it charged straight at Treasure Seeker, enveloped in a green glow.
Ruan Yunwen's heart sank. Unified Owl's current state reminded her of the past.
"Da Tong! Calm down!" Ruan Yunwen shouted.
But Unified Owl wouldn't listen to any commands, attacking Treasure Seeker with reckless abandon.
It seems I was right. There are still issues between Ruan Yunwen and Unified Owl. As long as I can provoke Unified Owl's anger and make it doubt Ruan Yunwen's command, a High-Class Beast Companion acting on its own will, full of vulnerabilities, won't be so hard to deal with. I'm so clever... Qiao Sang looked up at the sky, feeling that Treasure Seeker still had a good chance of winning.
As long as it isn't attacked...
