Chapter 469: Chapter 439: Awakening Bead
Ancient Mist Region.
Sea City Pet Beast Battle Field.
In the night sky, dazzling fireworks continuously burst forth, their splendor as if inviting the whole city to share this magnificent feast of fireworks.
At this mont, the ground of the entire battle field had opened up from the center toward both sides, transforming into a blue water-type stage.
About a hundred water-type pet beasts Qiao Sang had never seen before kept changing formations and exhibiting skills, performing the program.
“What are the usual rewards for first place in the divisional competition?” Qiao Sang asked with interest.
“Don’t ask .” Xu Yixuan sighed. “I’ve never been to an award ceremony for the divisional competition.”
This, did I ask the wrong question… Qiao Sang coughed and changed the topic: “I didn’t expect there to be such a wonderful performance before the divisional competition awards ceremony.”
“Yeah, it’s my first ti seeing it too,” Xu Yixuan remarked.
Qiao Sang fell silent.
Not far away, several teachers from other regions were enthusiastically discussing how to train their students, and trying to covertly probe Sun Boyi for the usual training projects of Qiao Sang.
Every ti the topic ca up, Sun Boyi would just smile and not say a word.
Before long, the lights changed.
The performance water-type pet beasts leapt downwards and disappeared beneath the surface of the water.
The next second, a gigantic award platform slowly rose from the water.
Then, a thin film, like the surface of a bubble, uniformly covered the entire water-type stage.
Yi Ao stepped onto a blue panel and descended about half a ter above the ground before jumping down and landing steadily on the thin film.
From a distance, it seed as if he was standing on the water.
He held the microphone:
“Ladies and Gentlen! The award ceremony begins now! Let’s first welco the third-place winner of this national campus Beast Taming competition in our division, from the Ancient Mist Region, contestant Hu Fan…
Waiting area.
Yaobao had already turned off the lightweight shrinking bracelet and returned to its original size.
It wore green triangular sunglasses custom-made for its size, visibly excited, yet it tried to suppress the corners of its mouth to maintain a cool guy expression.
Xiao Xunbao excitedly tried on diamond gloves on its paws on top of Qiao Sang’s head.
Lubao, on the other hand, stood beside Qiao Sang with a cool and detached expression.
Soon, Yi Ao announced Qiao Sang’s na:
“Next, let’s invite the champion of this national campus Beast Taming competition in our division! Also the youngest senior trio divisional champion in history! Representing the Yuhua Region, contestant Qiao Sang! And her pet beasts, the Liaoxing Dog! Treasure-seeking Demon! And Bingke Xilu!!!”
The entire venue imdiately erupted into cheers and applause, thunderous, shaking the very earth.
“Bingke Xilu! Bingke Xilu!”
“Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!”
“Bingke Xilu! Bingke Xilu!”
“Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!”
The audience was almost exclusively chanting the nas of Qiao Sang and Lubao. The few tis Yaobao and Xiao Xunbao’s nas were called, they were quickly overshadowed.
Qiao Sang led Yaobao and the others to the award platform.
A pet beast in ceremonial attire carried the prize on a tray atop its head onto the stage.
Yi Ao at the side delivered a string of well-rehearsed lines, and when he got to Lubao, his voice notably rose a few notches:
“Bingke Xilu’s face bore practically no expression, but that is precisely where its power lies! In victory, not undue joy; in defeat, not undue worry. Those who have thunder in their heart yet a calm lake on their face can achieve greatness!”
You folks from Ancient Mist Region shouldn’t be too outrageous… Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched slightly, montarily forgetting to even pay attention to what the award was.
After the awards were presented, the photographers at the front pressed the shutter button, capturing this mont in ti.
In the cara fra, Qiao Sang stood between Yaobao, who was wearing green triangle sunglasses and exuding a cool dude vibe, and Lubao, whose expression was icy cool. anwhile, Xiao Xunbao sat atop their heads, wearing diamond gloves and waving cheerfully to the surrounding area. The scene was remarkably harmonious.
…
Deep Sea Mantis Hotel.
Qiao Sang sat on the bed, looking at the bead in her hand that was blue to the point of almost being black.
The prize awarded for the regional competition, aside from the trophy, was this Water-type Awakening Bead.
She looked it up online and found it said that if a Water-type Pet Beast swallowed it, there was a certain chance of awakening dormant genetic abilities within its bloodline.
Based on their innate talents and the concentration of their bloodlines, Pet Beasts could be born with genetic abilities.
For example, Yaobao had the skill Fla Tooth, and Lubao had Healing Light.
It was also common for so Pet Beasts to be born without any genetic abilities.
As tis changed and minds opened, Beast Tars no longer insisted that Pet Beasts of the sa species should stick together.
If their own Pet Beasts took a liking to those of another species, most were happy to support them.
Consequently, Pet Beasts with concentrated bloodlines beca increasingly rare, and naturally, those born with genetic abilities were no longer as common.
This is where the value of Awakening Beads of various attributes cos into play.
This is the first ti I’ve seen such a thing… Qiao Sang held the Water-type Awakening Bead up to her face for closer inspection.
Depending on the quality of the Awakening Bead, the color deepens.
The higher the quality, the deeper the color, and even those who aren’t Appraisers can discern the difference.
Looking at its blue-black appearance, it wasn’t hard to infer that this Water-type Awakening Bead was of exceptionally high quality.
That reminds , aside from Healing Light, what other genetic abilities does the Shuilu Yana species have… Qiao Sang picked up her cell phone to look it up online.
Just then, the phone rang.
The caller ID showed, Professor Jiang.
Qiao Sang answered, “Professor Jiang?”
“Qiao Sang, when are you coming back?” Jiang Xiu asked.
“I’m not coming back; I’ll head directly to the Zhongkong Region in a couple of days,” Qiao Sang replied.
The final stage of the national competition was being held in a week. If she flew back to the Yuhua Region before heading to Zhongkong Region, most of her ti would be wasted on travel.
Since she hadn’t yet collected information on the competitors for the national competition, she couldn’t afford to waste ti.
“Do you have ti to drop by the Shuilu Yana Species Conservation Center tomorrow?” Jiang Xiu asked.
Qiao Sang was taken aback, “The Shuilu Yana Conservation Center?”
Jiang Xiu humd in acknowledgnt, “Dr. Jiang from there asked
to invite you. If you’re going, tell
a ti, and I’ll co pick you up tomorrow.”
“Dr. Jiang has been researching the Shuilu Yana species for most of his life. If you could talk to him, I believe it would be very helpful for your future cultivation of the Bingke Xilu.”
As Jiang Xiu spoke, he seed to recall sothing, and after a pause, continued:
“Oh, and Dr. Jiang also asked
to tell you not to rush to use that Water-type Awakening Bead on your Bingke Xilu.”
Feeling puzzled, Qiao Sang asked, “Why is that?”
Jiang Xiu replied earnestly, “I don’t know the reason, but Dr. Jiang said if you want to know, he will tell you when you visit tomorrow.”
Great, so he said that on purpose to get
to go there. Can’t people just be sincere? What’s with all these sches… As Qiao Sang inwardly grumbled, she mimicked Jiang Xiu’s tone and asked:
“Could you give
Dr. Jiang’s contact information? I’ll just call and ask him directly.”
Jiang Xiu: “…”
“I’m joking,” Qiao Sang laughed. “Let’s make it 9 a.m. tomorrow. I’ll wait for you.”
Jiang Xiu: “… Okay.”
ps: Sorry for being late! Wishing everyone a healthy Dragon Boat Festival!
