Chapter 454: The Second Stage of the National Championship
Chapter 454: The Second Stage of the National Championship
When a familiar enters a Paralysis State, it cannot use the last skill it used before entering the state for a certain period of time.
Qiao Sang understood.
A Stunned State means the familiar cannot move, while a Paralysis State means it cannot use the last skill it used before entering the state.
A thought suddenly flashed through her mind: the names are so similar, but their meanings are completely different. This is a key point to remember; I have a feeling it might come up on a future exam.
With this in mind, she reviewed the description of the immobilizing technique again before putting down her phone, and her consciousness returned to the Beastmaster Codex.
Qiao Sang's gaze moved downward, and she noticed that Treasure Seeker's skill list had also increased by three, just like Fangy and Lulu when they evolved.
The new skills were Psychic Hammer, Scary Face, and Cursed Luck.
Psychic Hammer: An advanced Psychic-type skill that focuses psychic power in the head to attack the opponent, causing damage with a 20% chance to put the target into a Cowering State.
Good grief, Treasure Seeker actually awakened a Psychic-type physical attack skill... Qiao Sang felt both joy and concern.
She was delighted because Psychic-type physical attack skills were exceedingly rare, and Treasure Seeker's ability to use this skill would undoubtedly create unexpected effects in battles.
However, she was also worried because the power of any physical skill is somewhat tied to the familiar's size.
Qiao Sang hadn't seen a familiar use Psychic Hammer in real life, so she wasn't sure of its exact power. She had a feeling that, given Treasure Seeker's small frame, the effect might not be as strong as she hoped.
"I should find an opportunity to test this move..."
Scary Face: An intermediate Ghost-type skill that uses a sudden, terrifying scream to attack the opponent, with a chance to put the target into a Cowering State.
This skill seemed quite suitable for Treasure Seeker...
Qiao Sang looked at the last skill—Cursed Luck.
Cursed Luck: An advanced Ghost-type skill that reduces the user's energy by one-third and curses the target, making them unlucky for a certain period of time.
While Ghost familiars are generally unpopular, those with curse-type skills are often secretly rented by many people.
If you get scolded by your boss, you can rent one to curse them.
If your boyfriend or girlfriend cheats on you, you can rent one to curse them.
If a teammate suddenly goes Afk during a game, causing you to lose, you can rent one to curse them.
In short, Ghost familiars with curse-type skills are always in demand.
Qiao Sang thought to herself that her range of missions would expand even more in the future...
She glanced at the remaining points: 6511.
Treasure Seeker's points had nearly reached ten thousand after the recent training and matches. However, before giving Treasure Seeker the Dark Crystal, she had entered the Beastmaster Codex and directly added the level points to 9999, leaving her with this much.
"Points are a great thing; they can significantly shorten a familiar's evolution time." Qiao Sang mused silently.
The next second, her consciousness returned to reality.
...
The next morning, Qiao Sang got up and entered the bathroom to freshen up.
"Xunxun!"
Just as she picked up her toothbrush, Treasure Seeker suddenly floated in with teary eyes.
"What's wrong?" Qiao Sang asked while brushing her teeth.
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker held up the Diamond Gauntlet on its paw, looking aggrieved.
Its glove wouldn't fit anymore!
Qiao Sang rinsed her mouth and comforted it, "It's not a big deal. I'll get you a new pair after the match."
"Xunxun..."
Hearing this, Treasure Seeker put on an expression that said, "There’s nothing else we can do."
After finishing her morning routine, Qiao Sang suddenly remembered something and picked up her mobile phone to call her mother.
The call connected after two rings.
"Mom, it’s me."
"Thinking of me today, huh?" Her mother’s voice carried a smile.
"Nothing much, just wanted to let you know that Treasure Seeker has Evolved."
"..."
Why isn’t she saying anything... Qiao Sang waited a few more seconds, but when her mother still didn’t speak, she called out, "Mom?"
Ye Xiangting’s mind went blank.
Treasure Seeker has Evolved?
What does that mean?
Does that mean her daughter now has three Advanced Familiars?
Qiao Sang called out again, "Mom?"
Ye Xiangting snapped out of her daze, took a deep breath, and suppressed the tumult of emotions rising within her. "Do your best and try to bring back the championship!"
Qiao Sang smiled. "I’ll do my best."
"By the way, send me a picture of Treasure Seeker after the Evolution."
"What? What do you need it for?"
"I’m posting it on social media."
"..."
After a brief chat, Qiao Sang hung up and checked the time—8:12 AM.
At that moment, her phone vibrated, signaling an incoming call. It was the Vice Principal.
She answered the call, and before she could speak, the Vice Principal’s voice came through. "Qiao Sang, come directly to the first-floor lobby. We’re waiting for you here."
"We?" It seems Teacher Sun is with the Vice Principal... Qiao Sang replied, "Okay."
Ten minutes later, Qiao Sang, carrying Fangy, took the elevator to the first floor.
As soon as she stepped into the lobby, she saw a dozen familiar faces.
Qiao Sang was momentarily stunned.
"Qiao Sang!"
"Qiao Sang!"
"Qiao God!"
"Qiao Sang is here!"
Jin Fanfei, Lu Liangye, Zheng Yining, Wang Jihang, Lu You, Wang Yao, Shi Gaofeng, Xu Yajie, and others lit up with excitement and rushed over.
...
At the Shouyao Familiar Battle Arena.
Qiao Sang sat in the Contestant Seats, looking at the audience stands filled with people wearing the same school uniform as her, feeling a bit dazed.
She hadn’t expected Jin Fanfei and the others to suddenly come from Yuhua Region to cheer her on...
Is it that easy to get leave?
Do they not have to do their homework if they come?
At the same time, in the audience stands.
"Qiao Sang is looking over. Do you think she’s touched?" Shi Gaofeng asked.
"I don’t know if she’s touched, but I know you’re excited", Wang Yao glanced at Shi Gaofeng’s hairstyle and finally couldn’t hold back. "Why did you wear a wig?"
Shi Gaofeng touched his mohawk and said with a hint of narcissism, "This is a national live stream, of course, I need to look cool."
Wang Yao was speechless. "Is a mohawk really cool?"
"Of course it is! And it makes us look more intimidating than the other schools!" Shi Gaofeng turned to Xu Yajie. "Right?"
"Right." Xu Yajie then silently pulled out an Afro wig from his backpack and put it on.
Wang Yao: "..."
Damn, everyone in the Second-Year Team is crazy except me. The First-Year Team’s juniors seem much more reliable... Wang Yao thought to herself.
At that moment, Lu Liangye leaned over and whispered, "Senior, can you ask Senior where he bought that mohawk wig? I think it’s pretty cool."
Wang Yao: "???"
Five minutes later, a man in a white suit stood atop a medium-sized, predominantly white Flying-type Companion and announced the match rules as usual. The holographic screen then displayed the second-stage National Championship match list for the audience to see.
