Beast taming, starting from zero point

Chapter 440: Chapter 415: *Burp*

Qiao Sang looked towards the audience upon hearing the remark.

In nearly every row, she could see a Feicui Mang.

Qiao Sang: "..."

She swore that there hadn’t been this many yesterday!

The audience was noisy and clamorous, with discussions surging like waves.

Normally, it was rare to see large-sized Pet Beasts in the spectator seats of any competition, as they could obstruct the view of other spectators, leading to conflicts.

Yet now, although the spectator seats were filled with sizeable Feicui Mangs, everyone seemed unusually harmonious.

"Bro, your Feicui Mang looks a bit like the one in Qiao Sang’s photos, could it be...?"

"Haha, no, I rented this especially for the occasion. Bingke Xilu is happy to see a Feicui Mang, right? Since tickets are so hard to get, I was worried that the Beast Tamer of its Feicui Mang friend might not have been able to get a ticket for today. When Bingke Xilu comes on stage, with such a distance, it might mistake the one I rented for its friend and continue feeling happy."

"You’re so thoughtful, bro! Let’s add each other’s contact info! I’ve made a friend out of you!"

"Buddy, to be honest, your Feicui Mang wouldn’t happen to be Bingke Xilu’s old friend, would it?"

"I can’t believe you discovered my deep secret just like that!"

In the D-section of the audience, row six.

"Beautiful, where did you rent that Feicui Mang from? It looks so much like the one in Qiao Sang’s photos," a young man with well-defined features asked.

Wei Ying replied indifferently, "It’s my own."

"Fei Fei." The Feicui Mang nodded.

The young man was taken aback, then laughed, "The Feicui Mang you’ve rented is quite cooperative."

Wei Ying remained silent.

The young man glanced at the Feicui Mang a couple more times, finding it more and more familiar, and couldn’t help asking again, "Where exactly did you rent this Feicui Mang from?"

Wei Ying said impatiently, "I’ve already told you it’s my own."

"Don’t be stingy, come on," the young man said, "Just tell me where you rented it from. I’ll rent it for a day tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, I’ll pay for you to rent it again. How’s that sound? Whatever extra comes up will be your profit."

As he spoke, the young man stretched out five fingers.

Wei Ying was silent for a few seconds, then said, "I’ll give you her contact information."

...

Time ticked away.

During this period, Xu Yixuan lost her match.

It was unavoidable; in each group, there were at least two contestants with High Level Pet Beasts, and only those were likely to claim the top spot for advancing.

Qin Shuo from the Ancient Mist Region was Xu Yixuan’s opponent, and his High Level Pet Beast was a Water-type Merry Sea Lion, which had won the match almost effortlessly.

Xu Yixuan accepted the result openly, after all, her goal was to be in the top six of the group to proceed to the next round.

"Up next, let’s welcome Qiao Sang from the Yuhua Region, and Chen Ye from the Ancient Mist Region to the stage!" Yi Ao announced excitedly.

The blood-pumping BMG played.

The entire venue erupted.

Upon hearing this, a slightly overweight boy in the competitors’ area almost broke into tears.

A sunny-looking boy beside him offered consolation:

"What’s there to cry about? Even if you don’t face Qiao Sang, being in any other group means you’d encounter contestants with High Level Pet Beasts. Either way, you’d lose a few rounds regardless of the group."

"Idiot." The slightly overweight boy stood up and earnestly straightened his school uniform, saying, "What’s there to cry about facing Bingke Xilu? I’m excited! Excited!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a white light descended, and the slightly overweight boy appeared on the battle stage.

The sunny-looking boy: "..."

Chen Ye, a competitor from the Ancient Mist Region with two Intermediate Level Pet Beasts, one Water-type and one Ice-type... Qiao Sang looked at her opponent in the distance, as basic information about him surfaced in her mind.

The two looked at each other from afar, with Chen Ye excitedly waving his hand.

Trying to get friendly to lower my guard, impossible... Qiao Sang looked on with an indifferent and merciless face.

The audience engaged in enthusiastic speculation:

"This round’s a no-brainer! As soon as Bingke Xilu enters the fray, it’ll be a relentless slaughter!"

"Qiao Sang’s opponent is a kid from our Ancient Mist Region, right? He’s lucky to face Bingke Xilu in battle."

"Too bad I was born a couple of decades too early, otherwise, I would definitely be the one standing opposite Qiao Sang!"

In the eager gazes of the audience, Xiao Xunbao appeared in the arena.

"Xun~burp~"

Xiao Xunbao let out an uncontrollable burp.

The venue quieted down for a moment, followed by a surge of noise:

"It’s not Bingke Xilu..."

"Damn, I almost forgot that Qiao Sang has three Pet Beasts..."

"Why didn’t she send out Bingke Xilu, though? A High Level Pet Beast against a Mid Level Pet Beast would’ve been an easy win!"

"What’s the name of this Pet Beast?"

"Not sure, but it looks like a Spectral-type Pet."

"Looks quite small in size."

...

On the field.

It was not Bingke Xilu... Chen Ye almost looked like she was about to cry.

This time, she truly felt like crying.

The Water-type Mang, with a biting force so strong that its jaws could severely injure an opponent... Qiao Sang looked at the medium-sized, blue-colored Pet Beast with a huge mouth and protruding sharp teeth and recalled its data in her mind.

"Xun!"

Xiao Xunbao showed a serious expression.

Lubao had evolved suddenly during battle, and it felt it could too!

The battle started.

Xiao Xunbao immediately vanished from sight.

"Water-type Mang..."

The Water-type Mang looked around warily.

"Burp~"

Suddenly, a burping sound came from the front.

The Water-type Mang reflexively opened its mouth, and a powerful water jet shot towards the source of the sound.

About a meter away, the water sprayed onto a transparent silhouette.

Without a doubt, that silhouette was Xiao Xunbao.

"Xun!"

Xiao Xunbao took damage and retreated more than ten meters before reappearing.

Seeing this scene, many in the audience laughed out loud:

"Hahaha! Getting its position revealed because of a burp, that’s unheard of."

"Too funny, how much did it eat to still be burping?"

"I’m dying, this Spectral-type Pet Beast is so adorable."

I was careless... I never imagined that a burp would give away its position. If only I knew, I would have let Xiao Xunbao drink less... Xiao Xunbao is fragile; it can’t take another hit... Better to end this quickly... Qiao Sang’s thoughts raced as she said:

"Shadow Control."

"Xun!"

Xiao Xunbao stood on its toes, and shadows on the ground began to wriggle. In the next second, they swiftly attacked the shadow of the Water-type Mang.

"Dark Water!" Chen Ye quickly responded.

He had looked up Qiao Sang’s information and naturally knew that her Treasure-seeking Demon could use Shadow Control. The Skill "Dark Water" might not be strong in attack, but it was the perfect counter to Shadow Control!

Hearing its Beast Tamer’s command, the Water-type Mang opened its mouth, and a jet of pitch-black water sprayed forward.

The black water spread across the ground, merging with the shadow of the Water-type Mang.

"Xun~burp~"

Xiao Xunbao didn’t stop moving; its toe twitched.

The shadow suddenly peeled off the ground, transforming from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, like a strip of black silk, rapidly shooting towards the location of the Water-type Mang.
