Chapter 473: Chapter 443: Fire Suppressing Bird (Combined Chapters)

If the Fire Attraction Trait of the Fire Heat Bird reached A-rank or above, then it would be reasonable for it to "battle" with an S-rank Fire Attribute Beast at the Beginner Stage.

Because that wouldn’t be a battle at all, but rather a test of the Fire Heat Bird’s capacity to withstand its Fire Attraction Trait!

Liu Yao looked at Qiao Sang, "What I want to say is just this, if it really is like that, when you encounter her, I suggest you do not send out the Liaoxing Dog."

Yaobao, who was eating, twitched its ears.

Liu Yao continued:

"The Liaoxing Dog possesses Skills with strong lethality that are primarily Fire Element, although it also has Psychic Series Skills, none of them are particularly destructive."

"Even though Liaoxing Dog’s Mars Rain has already reached Mystique Level, if the Fire Heat Bird is truly as you speculated, then there are two possibilities."

"One is that its Fire Attraction Trait has reached A-rank. In that case, an S-rank Mars Rain might inflict some damage on it within the same rank of Pet Beasts, but it certainly won’t be fatal. More likely, it would only make its Fire Element Skills even stronger."

"Two is that its Fire Attraction Trait has reached S-rank. Then, for it, the Liaoxing Dog’s Mars Rain might feel even more comfortable than actual rain."

"In either case, it’s very disadvantageous for the Liaoxing Dog."

"Yaobao..."

Yaobao raised its head upon hearing this, feeling that even food had lost its appeal.

Liu Yao was still talking:

"Although I haven’t been to the scene, I have been watching your matches live, and I’ve noticed that many times, even when you know the opponent’s Pet Beast, you still send out your own in an unfavorable situation."

"Take this area’s tournament, for instance. You clearly have both the Liaoxing Dog and Bingke Xilu, yet you still mostly sent out the Treasure-seeking Demon."

Speaking to this point, he said in an understanding tone:

"I know you want your Pet Beasts to improve faster."

Qiao Sang thought to himself that Liu Yao was overthinking it, as he was merely wanting to earn more points. Having Yaobao and Lubao overwhelm the weak wouldn’t earn as many points as sending Xiao Xunbao into battle.

"But what comes next is the national competition, and every move is crucial." Liu Yao’s tone shifted, speaking earnestly, "To train your Pet Beast, there’ll be plenty of time after the competition ends. I hope you can make winning your top priority in the nationals."

"Only the weak keep saying ’it’s the taking part that counts’."

"I wasn’t going to bring this up, but the situation is different now." Liu Yao stared at Qiao Sang, speaking seriously word by word:

"Currently, you have a great chance of winning the championship in the senior high division of the National School Beast Taming Tournament in your first year. Since the inception of the National School Beast Taming Tournament, no student has ever achieved such a feat."

"If you can do it, your future will be boundless!"

As expected from the Vice Principal... Sun Boyi cast a covert glance at him, silently admiring in his heart.

He had already noticed this issue with Qiao Sang. However, since Qiao Sang continued to win, and he never relied on Sun Boyi for training or anything else, it made his role as a coach seem superfluous, to the point where he found it difficult to broach the subject.

The Vice Principal was indeed cunning, using a downplay-then-praise approach, hitting the nail on the head in just a few sentences.

The Vice Principal had a point; there would be plenty of time to earn points, but to win the championship of the National School Beast Taming Tournament in the first year of high school, there’s only this one chance... After some thought, Qiao Sang nodded and spoke seriously:

"I understand."

After Liu Yao and Sun Boyi left, Qiao Sang picked up the information and started reviewing it.

"Ya Ya?"

Yaobao walked over and began looking at the paper document as well. After a while, realizing it couldn’t understand, it barked once, asking directly which guy wasn’t afraid of fire?

"This one." Qiao Sang placed the information about Song Xinyue in front of it, pointing at the photo of a red bird-like Pet Beast on it.

"Yaobao..." Yaobao stared intensely at the photo.

Qiao Sang didn’t notice Yaobao’s reaction and continued reading the information.

...

Around two in the morning, Qiao Sang had no trace of sleepiness.

In the darkness of the room, only the smartphone screen illuminated her cheeks.

The screen was displaying the official forum of the National School Beast Taming Tournament.

Every minute, the forum was updated with many new posts, clearly showing that there were a lot of night owls in various regions.

The discussions were mostly about the hopeful champions from their own regions.

The most popular post was titled #Who is Most Likely to be Champion in the Senior Divisions Across Regions#.

The comment section was full of netizens from across the country; you praise the genius of your region, and I extol the freak of mine, creating quite a lively debate for the moment.
