Chapter 334: Chapter 321: Son of Fortune
Qiao Sang, who was scrolling through her phone, thought for a moment, swiftly got out of bed, put on her shoes, and cheerfully said, "Alright, let’s go!"
"Yaobao!"
Yaobao showed an excited expression; its eyes emitted a blue light that glanced towards the window, and the window instantly opened as if controlled.
Qiao Sang flipped onto Yaobao’s back, turned her head and said to Xu Yixuan, "I’m just going out for a stroll, I’ll be back before dinner."
"Yaobao!"
As soon as her own Beast Tamer finished speaking, Yaobao couldn’t wait and jumped out of the window.
A breeze blew in, causing the curtains to sway slightly.
Xu Yixuan’s expression was one of shock as she looked in the direction of the window.
Can’t you just use the door? Why jump out of the window!
This act was performed a little too smoothly!
Xu Yixuan suddenly remembered something, formed hand seals, and summoned the Blazehound.
"Going out to play?" Xu Yixuan asked, expectant.
"Blaze."
The Blazehound glanced at her and then lay down with its eyes closed.
Play?
Childish.
Xu Yixuan: "..."
...
Riding atop a Pet Beast, feeling the sensation of flight, made travelling by plane seem downright lame in comparison.
Qiao Sang sat on Yaobao’s back, taking in the scenery below with delight.
The wind picked up.
"Slower."
"Yaobao!"
The scenery below became a blur.
"Lower."
"Yaobao!"
This was the joy of Beast Taming flight, able to freely adjust the speed and height, giving anyone the feeling of romantic flight!
Merely with this one flying skill, even if not considering becoming a Professional Beast Tamer, living an ordinary life, she wouldn’t have to worry about sustenance for the rest of her life... Qiao Sang contentedly looked down below when suddenly she was attracted by a particular scene.
She saw a boy and a deep blue medium-sized bird-like Pet Beast walking side by side.
She didn’t recognize this deep blue bird-like Pet Beast.
But that wasn’t the most important thing; the important thing was that every few steps, the boy had to bend down—it didn’t look like he was tying his shoelaces but rather like he was picking something up.
She hadn’t expected to find a Beast Tamer so dedicated to protecting the environment nowadays, quite rare indeed... Qiao Sang’s thoughts were interrupted when she clearly saw what the boy was picking up and was suddenly stunned.
"Slow down, Yaobao!" Qiao Sang patted Yaobao’s back as she spoke.
"Yaobao!"
Again, Yaobao slowed down.
Qiao Sang narrowed her eyes, focusing on what was in the boy’s hand—damn, it was all coins!
It turned out he wasn’t picking up trash, but money!
Qiao Sang was incredibly envious; what kind of luck was this, picking up so much money in less than half a minute!
Just then, the boy bent down again.
This time, he picked up a red-backed banknote with the Alliance emblem on it—a hundred Alliance Currency notes.
Qiao Sang: "!!!"
If she was envious before, now she was utterly shocked.
Qiao Sang stared blankly at the spot where the boy had been picking up money.
Was she blind?
Was she actually blind just now?!
One hundred Alliance Currency notes!
This is a hundred-dollar bill!
How could she not have noticed such a large hundred-dollar bill lying on the ground just now?!
For a moment, Qiao Sang seriously doubted her own vision.
Fortunately, she didn’t dwell on self-doubt for long and soon cheered herself up.
After all, everyone has times of good luck and bad luck!
If you think about it, her own luck isn’t bad either, otherwise, she wouldn’t have Xiao Xunbao and Lubao now.
Having comforted herself, Qiao Sang no longer looked at that lucky dog and instead glanced around, resting her gaze on a small building nearby.
On the balcony of one of the floors, a woman and a man were arguing, seemingly in a heated quarrel.
Thanks to her improved vision from feeding back, Qiao Sang could see the actions of the two people quite clearly.
After arguing for a while, the man, in a fit of rage, took off his hair, uh... his wig, and pulled out a twenty-Alliance Currency bill from inside to place in front of the woman.
The woman took the money, huffed disdainfully, and with a flick of her hand, the bill flew out into the wind.
Qiao Sang instinctively shifted her gaze to follow the bill.
The money floated down from the balcony, landing on a large tree where, coincidentally, a bird flew by, snatched the bill and flew off.
After flying a distance, a larger bird swooped down towards it, flapped its wings, and squawked.
The smaller bird, frightened by the sudden intrusion, jerked, opened its beak, and the money fell.
Just as the bill was about to hit the ground, a car happened to speed by, and the wind caused by the car made the bill flutter away again.
When the money finally landed, it ended up right next to a person’s foot, and that person bent down to pick it up.
Qiao Sang’s eyes moved up to the person who had picked up the bill.
The next second, she was utterly flabbergasted.
Damn it!
It was that guy again!
...
The next morning.
The sounds at Beast Taming High School in Hangkang City were deafening, with constant noise and chatter.
As Xu Yixuan said, the spectator seats for the competition venue, along with the surrounding open spaces and corridors, were almost completely packed with students and parents from Beast Taming High School.
"Which schools are competing today?"
"I heard they’re doing a livestream, is there any chance they’ll catch me on camera?"
"This is outrageous! I set my alarm for 7:30 just to come here! And now there are no seats left in the spectator area!"
"I went to find out more last night, and there’s a Beast Tamer from Shengshui Middle School with a Flame Listening Dog competing at our school!"
"Not just that, all of Shengshui High School’s team is here!"
"And also, I heard that Liu Zeru from Xiongding High School is also coming to ours!"
"Damn, does that mean all the people coming to our school are awesome? How’s our Wu Chang going to handle it?"
"No, no, no, there are quite a few lower-ranked schools as well. Besides, isn’t this round advancing half of the participants? With the kind of luck that Wu Chang has, he’s sure to make it!"
In the front rows of the spectator seats.
"Qiao Sang, what’s wrong with you? Ever since you came back yesterday, you’ve been spacing out from time to time," Xu Yixuan asked.
"It’s nothing..." Qiao Sang paused, then asked, "Do you believe in ’Children of Fortune’?"
"I do," Xu Yixuan shrugged and said, "There’s always some people who are favored by the heavens and not like ordinary folks, aren’t you one of them?"
"Not that," Qiao Sang clarified, "I’m talking about a ’Child of Fortune’ who finds money just by walking around, who can find change four or five times in half a minute, money that flies right up to them."
Xu Yixuan thought for a while, then said earnestly, "I do actually know of such a person."
Qiao Sang turned her head and took a deep breath, "Who?"
"The protagonist from the movie ’The Fall of Karis,’" Xu Yixuan replied.
Qiao Sang: "..."
When it came to the formal competition, each combat venue had to undergo random changes.
Although Beast Taming High School in Hangkang City was a local school, for some unknown reason, last year the government allocated funds for the school to remodel its venues, allowing it to become one of the few in Hangkang City that could freely change its venues.
This was also the most important reason why Beast Taming High School was chosen as a competition venue this year.
