Chapter 565: The Perfect Way to Quickly Earn Points
Chapter 565: The Perfect Way to Quickly Earn Points
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the Ghost Familiar, which was about the same size as most Beginner Beasts. They never expected this familiar to possess both Spatial Shift and Shadow Control, two extremely difficult skills for Psychic and Ghost types to learn!
And Shadow Control had even been mastered to the 3D Mode level!
A few seconds later, the audience stands erupted into a cacophony of whispers and discussions.
"Ashur was completely dominated throughout the match. That Ghost Familiar is terrifying, effortlessly controlling both Bella and Capgent!"
"This isn’t the level of combat you’d expect in high school."
"It feels like Qiao Sang knew from the start that her opponent was Ashur. She barely gave any commands, and her two familiars knew exactly how to counter Bella and Capgent’s Enchantment."
"I saw it too. When Bella and Capgent cast Enchantment, Steel Sparrow closed its eyes. The Ghost Familiar knew to move Capgent to block Bella’s Enchantment. If this wasn’t pre-arranged, I wouldn’t believe it."
"Exactly. Otherwise, Steel Sparrow wouldn’t have closed its eyes to resist Enchantment. Without sight, the danger is too high. Bella and Capgent are Psychic Pets, and they’re both a level higher. They could have taken it out in the split second it closed its eyes. It trusted the Ghost Familiar to act, which is why it closed its eyes."
"I think Steel Sparrow also knew the Ghost Familiar would move Capgent. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have closed its eyes. It was avoiding Capgent’s Enchantment. Later, Bella’s close-range Enchantment had no effect on it. It clearly understood the nature of Enchantment and the difference in gender between Capgent and itself."
"Oh, wow, I wouldn’t have thought of all that if you hadn’t mentioned it. My attention was completely on that Ghost Familiar!"
"All I can say is that Qiao Sang’s level far exceeds her peers. She should be competing against older participants, not here."
"You’re right. Even with a solid strategy, the individual strength of the familiars is too great. One move of Shadow Control from that Ghost Familiar and they’re all frozen, just standing there as targets."
The group from Sai Nan High School looked excited, but their spirits quickly dampened as they realized Qiao Sang could be their next opponent.
"It looks like the champion is a foregone conclusion", the black youth sitting next to Maggie remarked.
Maggie suppressed a smile and modestly replied:
"Not at all. Qiao Sang just has more familiars. People haven’t fully grasped the skills and strengths of her familiars yet. Now that all her familiars have been revealed, everyone can prepare, and Qiao Sang won’t win so easily."
The black youth gave her a sidelong glance.
He said she wouldn’t win so easily, not that she wouldn’t win at all.
...
It was seven in the evening.
Qiao Sang declined dinner invitations from some people and returned to the hotel.
After reading for about ten minutes, she suddenly remembered something and looked at Steel Treasure, asking:
"What’s wrong with you?"
Since the match ended, she had noticed Steel Treasure’s unusual silence. While it was usually quiet, today’s silence felt off.
Steel Treasure, who was quietly feeding Pepper to the Crystal Producer, paused, then looked up and calmly called out, indicating that it felt too weak.
Qiao Sang: "???"
But they won the match, didn’t they?
"Are you feeling like it was all Treasure Seeker controlling things, and you didn’t do anything but attack?" Qiao Sang asked tentatively.
Steel Treasure, whose thoughts had been read, nodded silently.
Isn't this inevitable? The opponent has two Psychic Pets, both capable of teleportation. If Treasure Seeker wasn't directly controlling them, you wouldn't be able to dodge their attacks just by moving around... Qiao Sang pondered for a few seconds before saying:
"Don't think like that. If they hadn't decided to focus their attacks on you first, Treasure Seeker wouldn't have been able to control them so smoothly."
"Ganggang..."
Steel Treasure glanced at its Beastmaster.
It understood; they targeted the weaker one first.
Qiao Sang: "..."
How do you trick such a smart Familiar? I need an answer, and I need it now... Qiao Sang's lips twitched as she said helplessly, "You're still a Junior, and your opponents are all one Level higher. Treasure Seeker is two Levels higher. It's already impressive that you could work so well with Treasure Seeker in the match. You'll get stronger after you Evolve."
"Ganggang."
Steel Treasure nodded, acknowledging the point, and then turned back to feeding the Crystal Producer chili peppers.
Qiao Sang sighed inwardly.
She felt that Steel Treasure was much more mature than Fangy and the others. It would speak up when something was wrong, but it wouldn't open up completely.
It was like a mother sensing something amiss with her child when they came home from school. The mother would ask what was wrong, and the child, after a moment's hesitation, would explain. The mother would offer a few comforting words, and the child would nod, saying they understood, and the conversation would end. But only the child would know if the issue was truly resolved.
Lulu, despite sometimes not saying things outright, would express her dissatisfaction through actions like emitting cold air or spraying Water Jets.
Qiao Sang found herself unable to focus on her book. She closed her eyes and entered the Beastmaster Codex.
The pages flipped, and she quickly found Steel Treasure's page.
[Name: Steel Sparrow]
[Attributes: Steel, Flying]
[Level: Junior (815/1000) +]
Qiao Sang's gaze shifted to the last line.
[Points: 280]
280?! It was only 120 yesterday, and now it's 280? The team battle today must have added 160 Points to Steel Treasure... Qiao Sang's heart pounded.
She suddenly realized she had overlooked an excellent way to quickly earn Points!
From past experience, she knew that defeating a Familiar one Level higher than herself yielded more Points than defeating a Familiar at the same Level. However, the Points gained from defeating Familiars at the same Level varied depending on their strength.
The stronger the Familiar at the same Level, the more Points you would earn upon defeating it.
The team battle system allowed Steel Treasure to defeat Familiars several Levels higher than itself.
Previously, she had only tried having Fangy and the others defeat Familiars one Level higher in matches. But what if they tried two Levels higher?
Of course, Fangy and the others, at their current Level, wouldn't be able to do it, but Steel Treasure could definitely give it a try!
Back when Fangy was in the Junior Stage, it had picked up a lucky strike against Thunder Swift, earning 930 Points in one go!
Qiao Sang's eyes grew brighter as she thought. Her gaze moved up to the first skill.
[Iron Wall (Proficient 476/500) +]
To achieve a perfect Evolution, a Familiar needed to learn a defense skill at the small success level during the Junior Stage. In just one more day, Steel Treasure would meet this condition. With the Points added to its Level, it would be ready to Evolve... Qiao Sang fell into deep thought.
However, once it Evolved to the Intermediate stage, it would be much harder to quickly earn Points by defeating Familiars two Levels higher in team battles...
