Chapter 386: Chapter 367 First Day? Exciting! (Two in One) Part 3
Having finished speaking, he looked at Qiao Sang with great cheer and asked, “Who are you competing against?”
“Ruan Yunwen,” Qiao Sang replied.
“Who?!”
“Ruan Yunwen from Wucuai Middle School?!”
He Daotao and Xu Yixuan both exclaid in surprise.
With an expression of “making a fuss over nothing,” Qiao Sang asked, “Why are you guys so agitated?”
He Daotao lowered his voice and said, “This year, Ruan Yunwen is highly likely to rank first in the province, her Smooth-Slide Owl has been evolved for a few years, and it used to be that the owl wouldn’t listen to her, but this year is different. Your Fla Listening Dog only recently evolved, I’m a bit worried.”
“You should be worried about Ruan Yunwen instead!” said Xu Yixuan, her face alight with excitent,
“I didn’t expect to see such a thrilling match on the first day! But speaking of which, Ruan Yunwen is really unlucky. She finally got her Smooth-Slide Owl to listen to her this year, and then in the first round of the knockout she ets Qiao Sang. It seems she is destined not to rank among the top few.”
When you just heard my opponent was Zhou Jing, your reaction wasn’t like this at all… He Daotao looked towards Xu Yixuan with a lancholic expression.
Soon, the first group arrived on stage.
Those who made it to the knockout had decent strength, so the outco wasn’t going to be decided imdiately.
Moreover, the matchups for the knockout were randomly assigned on the day of the competition, so naturally, there wasn’t the opportunity to prepare tactics for a specific opponent like during the preliminary and group stages.
As a result, a single match went on for over ten minutes.
Aren’t these two a bit too weak? They’ve made it to the knockout stage after all… Qiao Sang frowned inwardly as she watched.
But the next second she realized it wasn’t that they were weak, but during the group stage she had only compared the strength of her opponents to Lubao’s.
Now in the knockout, she was taking into account the strength of Yaobao and Xiao Xunbao, which naturally made a difference.
Ti flew by quickly.
In the anti, Xu Yixuan won easily, while He Daotao lost one match but then secured the competition with a series of two victories using his lting Blast Gorilla.
After He Daotao ca off the field, he couldn’t stop talking.
At that mont, he was grinning and comnting on a player who had just left the stage,
“That guy just now was no good. If it were , I’d have sent my Forcehead Duck charging straight in, can’t lose the montum right, how can you wimp out just because of a disadvantage in attributes.”
It was at this mont that a man with a Swoop Flying Squirrel on his shoulder called out loudly,
“Qiao Sang from Shengshui Middle School, Ruan Yunwen from Wucuai Middle School, enter the arena!”
At this mont, there wasn’t much of a reaction from the spectator seats, but the contestants’ seating area was already boiling over.
The first thing everyone paid attention to when the match roster was released was their own opponent; they only took note of their teammates or other opponents they were interested in if there was extra ti.
Since the list was published scrolling upward, most people focused on their own na before and then eagerly started to look up their opponent’s information.
The matchups of others didn’t particularly catch their attention.
They had never expected that on the first day of the knockout, Qiao Sang would be pitted against Ruan Yunwen!
“My God, how could these two end up facing each other on the first day?!”
“I was almost falling asleep watching, why am I suddenly so alert now?”
“Good grief! I was thinking about connecting with Qiao Sang during this ti, is she going to have to return to school overnight after this match?”
“Don’t panic, think about Qiao Sang’s pet beast, it’s damn strong, she might not necessarily lose.”
“If it was last year’s Ruan Yunwen, of course, I’d know Qiao Sang might not lose, but this year’s Ruan Yunwen is different, she can completely command the Smooth-Slide Owl now.”
In the area for the contestants from Litian Royal Beast High School.
“Tsk, lucky the principal always had
keep the evolution of my Valley Tail Flower a secret, saying it was for that potential prize, now it seems there’s no point in hiding it anymore,” Ding Yanjing said with a smile.
“I don’t understand, how did the group from Shengshui Middle School agree to let Qiao Sang participate in the senior high competition,” Li Zonglin said, puzzled,
“With her strength, not to ntion participating in the junior high competition, even if she were to compete in the sophomore high competition, she’d easily represent our province in the regional competition.”
“No kidding, it’s rare for
to agree with you,” Ding Yanjing said in agreent.
Next to him, Wang Rui watched the stage with a serious expression.
He wanted to see if he had any hope of winning if he faced these two competitors.
So things only count when you see them with your own eyes.
…
In the first row of the audience seats, the VIP area,
Li Tang Beast Taming High School’s principal, Huang Renbiao, slowly said, “Principal Wang, I had been looking forward to assessing Qiao Sang’s strength, but it seems I won’t get the chance.”
“Hehe,” replied Wang Weidou with a laugh, remaining silent.
Huang Renbiao’s eyebrows raised. What did he an by ‘hehe’?
“Do you think Qiao Sang has a chance to win?” Huang Renbiao probed.
Wang Weidou’s mouth twitched into a smile. “She probably has a better chance than your school’s Ding Yanjing.”
Hehe… Huang Renbiao stopped talking.
Beside them, the principal of a different middle school really wanted to join the conversation, but when he considered who these two represented, he held back.
Forget it, they’re out of my league…
…
Qiao Sang rose and walked toward the field.
At the sa ti, she saw a girl about six ters away from her in the contestant seats also stand up and walk toward the field.
The audience gave a token cheer.
By this point in the competition, everyone was already tired.
So were there only to watch their own children compete, unaware of who the other players were; it was more effective to call out the nas of the schools than the contestants.
Others were there for the schools.
Even though one of the contestants now entering the field was from Shengshui Middle School, the audience had already worn out their enthusiasm watching other matches from Shengshui.
Then, the comntator, who would only read out the introductions of the contestants and not provide real-ti comntary, spoke up:
“Ruan Yunwen, from High School, is the only student in her senior year in Zhehai Province who owns a High Level Pet Beast! And then there’s our young prodigious contestant from Shengshui Middle School, Qiao Sang. At just 15, she boasts ownership of not one, not two, but three mid-level pet beasts! She even competed with upperclassn two grades her senior, maintaining an undefeated record through the preliminary and group competitions to get here!”
“I believe this match will be absolutely thrilling!”
The audience quieted for a mont, then erupted into a noisy buzz.
“What did he just say? A High Level Pet Beast?!”
“I know about this, I ca to watch when my son competed in the last two sessions, and I was freaked out too. I only found out later it was a pet beast left to her by her dad.”
“So that’s the case… What happened to her dad?”
“He’s gone.”
“Ah, and what’s her High Level Pet Beast?”
“It seems to be a Smooth Owl.”
“Right, and what was that thing he ntioned after? 15 years old? Three mid-level pet beasts? Is that for real?”
“It must be true, there’s a crowd watching, and there are reporters…”
“Wow, what does it an to have three mid-level pet beasts at 15?”
“Sss… If she’s 15, doesn’t that an she just started freshman year of high school! Our Zhehai Province actually has such a monstrous kid! What’s her na?”
“Qiao Sang, her na is Qiao Sang.”
…
On the field,
Qiao Sang and Ruan Yunwen gazed at each other from afar.
The chanical pet beast wearing a referee badge blew the whistle.
The Green Star Formation and the gray star formation lit up simultaneously.
Two pet beasts of vastly different sizes appeared before the audience.
“Smooth Owl.”
“Xun~”
