Chapter 386: Yazai Pet Beast Nursery
Chapter 386: Yazai Pet Beast Nursery
The second match was scheduled to begin 90 minutes later.
Wang Rui's familiar needed time to recover and adjust, even though advanced medical techniques could heal and restore energy quickly. However, if the match were to start immediately, there would still be a slight difference in condition compared to a familiar that hasn't fought yet.
To ensure fairness, the 90-minute adjustment period was necessary.
In cases where a familiar was severely injured, the rest time would be appropriately extended.
Time flew by quickly.
Most of the audience remained in their seats.
As the match approached, Xu Yixuan looked at the audience stands and asked in confusion, "Why are there still so many people here?"
Although he didn't mean to show off, since Xu Yixuan had asked, Qiao Sang had to answer, "Probably because Fangy is still here."
"Ya."
Fangy, upon hearing this, glanced at the audience stands and raised a paw to wave.
The audience stands erupted in noise.
"Did you see that?! It waved its paw!"
"Damn! That's the style of a boss!"
"Ah! I just put my phone away, and I missed that moment!"
Xu Yixuan: "……"
Indeed, Fangy's coolness had doubled after evolving… Fangy silently puffed out its chest.
After 90 minutes, the second match began.
Qiao Sang had faced both Xu Yixuan and Wang Rui in battle.
Wang Rui's Scale Controller has Psychic Sense, which, to some extent, counters Xu Yixuan's Ghost-type Beast Companion with Invisibility.
If not for the Treasure Seeker's Psychic-type attributes, relying solely on Invisibility to make moves against a Scale Controller would be difficult. Xu Yixuan's Dream Weaver would likely not fare well against a Scale Controller.
Additionally, there was Xu Yixuan's Blazefang and Wang Rui's Spiky Dragon.
In terms of attributes and overall capability, Spiky Dragon held the advantage.
Moreover… Qiao Sang glanced at Fangy.
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy couldn't help but cheer excitedly for Blazefang on the field.
Qiao Sang couldn't help but facepalm and was about to suggest not shouting.
Before he could speak, however, Spiky Dragon used Burrow for the Nth time, digging into the ground. Xu Yixuan ordered Blazefang to spray fire into the burrow.
Due to the previous confrontation, Spiky Dragon had dug the burrow right in front of Blazefang's feet.
Blazefang lowered its head, opened its mouth, and aimed at the burrow.
Just as everyone thought Spiky Dragon would either be injured or forced to emerge from the burrow early, a silver-white, raging energy burst out of the hole, hitting Blazefang directly in the face while it was still condensing flames.
Blazefang was defeated.
"Good one, deliberately digging the burrow right under Blazefang's feet. The purpose was to make Blazefang open its mouth and aim at the hole. Spiky Dragon must have been preparing to use Dragon Breath inside, waiting for this moment. Indeed, none of them are simple… This was definitely a strategic move, not because of Fangy's bad luck…"
Qiao Sang nodded to himself: in the future, he couldn't let his familiars stay near burrows, especially those dug right underfoot.
Time passed slowly.
The match between Xu Yixuan and Wang Rui was somewhat challenging.
Although Wang Rui's Spiky Dragon won the first round, Xu Yixuan realized he had been too careless. In the second round, he was extra cautious.
A fully energized Dream Weaver faced off against Spiky Dragon, whose energy was already significantly drained. After five minutes of intense combat, Dream Weaver ended the match with a Dream Induction.
In the third round, both Xu Yixuan and Wang Rui displayed unprecedented focus.
They knew that in this year's National School Beastmaster League Provincial Tournament, third place would be their best possible result.
The match was fiercely contested.
Dream Weaver excelled at Dream Induction, but as an old rival, Wang Rui was too familiar with this Trait. Coupled with his specialized mental perception that countered Ghost-type Beast Companions, after more than ten minutes of battle, Scale Controller's Illusion Beam secured the victory.
Xu Yixuan returned to the Contestant Seats, looking dejected. "I thought without Ding Yanjing, I could advance one place. But it seems I’m still destined for third."
Qiao Sang tried to console her. "Actually, you still have a chance to fight for the top two. Just win the next match against me."
According to the tournament rules, the winner of the second round would face the winner of the first round to determine the final winner. However, since Wang Rui had already faced both Qiao Sang and Xu Yixuan in the first round, a different approach was needed. A round-robin system would be used, with 3 points for a win, 0 points for a loss, and 1 point for a draw.
After the two rounds, Qiao Sang and Wang Rui each had 6 points, while Xu Yixuan had 3 points.
Since Wang Rui had already faced both opponents, the final match would be between Qiao Sang and Xu Yixuan.
If Xu Yixuan could win both rounds against Qiao Sang, she would take first place.
Win against you? Xu Yixuan's lips twitched. She couldn't even imagine a draw!
In the first row of the audience stands, in the Vip area,
Huang Renbiao patted Wang Rui on the shoulder, pleased. "Great job. You secured second place in the province. But the hard work is just beginning. We'll train hard over the next week to prepare for the Regional Tournament."
Wang Rui nodded, excited. "Principal, I will do my best!"
Everyone around them offered their congratulations, not questioning the outcome.
The match hadn't officially ended, but everyone had already accepted Wang Rui as the provincial second-place winner.
...
Hanggang City.
Wen Dan Street.
Yazai Pet Beast Nursery.
The place was packed with people, a promising start for a newly opened familiar nursery.
A large holographic screen dominated the left wall, taking up half of it.
It was currently showing an advertisement, with the "Zhehai TV" logo in the top left corner.
Five staff members were enthusiastically serving the customers.
Ye Xiangting kept glancing at the holographic screen.
After a while, the screen switched to a man in formal attire sitting in a holographic studio, smiling. "Let's continue to follow the National School Beastmaster League Zhehai Province Junior Year division. You're about to see the final of the Zhehai Province Junior Year division."
The screen then switched to the Kainan Beast Battle Arena.
Ye Xiangting immediately grabbed her mobile phone and opened the family group chat, tagging everyone:
【The match has started!】
After waiting for two seconds and seeing no response, she couldn't resist opening a red envelope.
【Ye Xiangting has sent a red envelope】
The red envelope was claimed instantly.
【Second Sister-in-Law: I'm watching the match! I haven't changed channels for the past 90 minutes!】
【Big Brother: After Qiao Sang's match, remember to set up a banquet. I and your sister-in-law will definitely come back.】
【Third Uncle: Qiao Sang has really made us proud. Dad and Mom have been watching her match all morning.】
【Brother-in-Law: I wish I could watch it too, but I'm at work. I'll definitely watch the replay when I get home tonight!】
There were many more messages below, with almost everyone in the family group chat chiming in.
Ye Xiangting looked at the chat history and felt satisfied.
