Chapter 421: Chapter 400: The Ancient Mist Region, Too Terrifying (Suggested to read together with tomorrow’s Chapter!)

"From the Ancient Mist Region, Ma Zongji, owner of the High Level Pet Beast Qian Dao Water Bear, a dual-attribute Pet Beast with water and combat series, has showcased high-level skills of both attributes in prior competitions, possessing extremely high attack power whether on ground or in water."

"From the Xilü Area, Deng Tianyue, whose High Level Pet Beast is the evil-series Hei Shi Giant Demon, is rumored to have a terrifying appetite, consuming anything and everything, turning it into its own energy, one must be cautious when it starts to gnaw on the ground and eat soil during combat."

"From the Lian Ke Area, Duan Man, owning a High Level Pet Beast called Gang Tela, a steel and ground type, its body covered in several segmented pieces of armor, fond of eating Mad Iron Stone and iron-rich spring water, with a defense so strong it’s frightening."

Watching each contestant take the stage, Qiao Sang’s mind surfaced with the information associated with them.

It was undeniable, although her strength had seen a quantum leap since the start of the competition, she still couldn’t guarantee a one hundred percent chance of victory in every match now that it was the regional contest.

Qiao Sang reined in her thoughts, and couldn’t help but consider another possibility: should she simply use direct points to allow Lubao to evolve... With two High Level Pet Beasts, wouldn’t her chance of winning improve drastically...

Time flew swiftly by.

It wasn’t until near noon that the morning’s competition finally drew to a close.

"Teacher Yi, you can let the next group take the stage now!"

The next group of contestants... listening to the slightly excited voice in his earpiece, Yi Ao felt his heartbeat inevitably speed up.

He took a deep breath, bringing the microphone to his mouth, trying his best not to let his voice tremble:

"Next up, please welcome from the Lian Ke Area, Tang Zhongyi, and from the Yuhua Region, Qiao Sang to the stage!"

All the audience first went very tactfully silent for a second, and then collectively exploded.

"Ahhh! Ahhhhh!"

"Binglu Qia! Binglu Qia! My Binglu Qia is finally going to appear!"

"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang! I beg you! Summon Binglu Qia!"

"I waited for this! I finally waited for it! Heaven knows I was about to fall asleep just now!"

"I suddenly feel like crying!"

"What? Binglu Qia? Am I actually going to see Binglu Qia?!"

Even though the regional contest had gathered the most outstanding young contestants from all the major regions, it was after all a high school competition.

Audiences accustomed to seeing higher-level Beast Tamer competitions could hardly be whipped into excitement.

So much so that for the morning, they seemed like they were paid by the officials to fill the seats and prop up the scene, the unprofessional kind at that.

Some contestants received only symbolic applause from a part of the crowd when appearing on stage.

The sudden fervor in the spectator stands now bewildered the contestants from areas other than the Ancient Mist Region.

"Damn, you scared the hell out of me, what happened?"

"The audience is alive?"

"What’s going on? Who arrived?"

"I think I know what’s going on, the information says that this Qiao Sang has a Pet Beast from the endangered species of the Ancient Mist Region."

"That’s exaggerated, right? The whole stadium is cheering for Qiao Sang."

"I’m so envious, if I didn’t know better I’d think it was her home ground."

"But seriously, wouldn’t the pressure be immense under these circumstances, what if she lost?"

"That’s none of our concern now."

In the Yuhua Region contestant area.

Qiao Sang hadn’t even reacted, when a dazzling blue light struck down, and the next second, she appeared in the battle arena.

This scene immediately sparked discussion among the contestants.

"Damn, why’s that? Why did she get the blue light?"

"Most importantly, Tang Zhongyi got white light, the naked contrast..."

"Why is the light when Qiao Sang enters different from ours?"

"Is the Ancient Mist Region being too double-standard? I want to protest! I want blue light too!"

On the stage, Tang Zhongyi’s composure was slightly affected.

Anyone who heard voices cheering for the opponent couldn’t possibly be unruffled.

Truth be told, he had competed in others’ home fields before, but it had never been this exaggerated, not even the semblance of fair treatment was there.

"It’s just a Binglu Qia, why all the fuss..."

But what really deflated him was the opponent in front of him.

Tang Zhongyi had checked the background of all the contestants who made it to the divisional competition beforehand and memorized all those who owned high-level pet beasts.

As long as he didn’t get matched with a contestant who owned a high-level pet beast in the first stage of the elimination round, he wasn’t without a chance to make it to the top 40.

But, as luck would have it, he was matched against one of the 21 contestants who owned a high-level pet beast.

And it was a contestant who was incredibly popular in the Ancient Mist Region.

Tang Zhongyi instantly felt that his luck had hit rock bottom today.

The competition venue didn’t start a countdown for the contestants to summon their pet beasts like before.

Instead, a blood-pumping BGM started playing.

"Friends! It’s 11:01 am Ancient Mist time—this is the last match of this morning on the first day of our divisional competition! Tell me, is everyone tired yet?" Yi Ao, above, finished speaking and pointed the microphone toward the audience.

"Not tired!!!" The audience replied in unison.

"Then let me hear your voices cheering for the contestants!" Yi Ao shouted.

"Binglu Qia! Binglu Qia!"

"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

"Binglu Qia! Binglu Qia!"

The audience was chanting these two phrases.

Tang Zhongyi was numb.

"Great! I believe both contestants can feel everyone’s enthusiasm!"

No, I don’t feel it... Tang Zhongyi inwardly scoffed.

"Let’s all count down to welcome the summoning of the two contestants!"

As soon as Yi Ao’s words ended, the holographic image of the number "3" appeared in the sky.

At the same time, the audience began to shout in unison:

"3!"

"2!"

Well, this is getting me excited... Qiao Sang’s heartbeat quickened slightly.

The people of the Ancient Mist Region obviously wanted her to summon Lubao, but emotions are contagious.

She had to admit, their emotions indeed affected her.

"1!"

As the count finished, Qiao Sang’s hands formed a seal.

The audience collectively held their breath.

On the green Star Array, a pet beast with a light blue appearance, resembling a fox with a blue rhombus-shaped gem embedded in its forehead, and white fluff around its tail fin and neck, exuding an aura of proud aloofness, appeared before everyone.

"Lubao." Lubao flicked its tail.

"Ahhhh! It’s Binglu Qia! It’s Binglu Qia!"

"Qiao Sang! I love you!"

"I can’t take it, I’m going to cry, I’m so moved that Qiao Sang actually summoned Binglu Qia!"

"Binglu Qia just flicked its tail! I’m dying of cuteness!"

"I’m going to fan over Qiao Sang! Just for her summoning Binglu Qia in her first match! I will be a fan till death!"

The audience was screaming, with many people’s eyes shining with tears.

The other contestants watching felt a tingling on their scalps.

The Ancient Mist Region is too terrifying...

Feeling both numb and somewhat relieved they hadn’t been matched with Qiao Sang, the contestants watched as Yi Ao, with a voice cracking from excitement, announced the start of the battle.
