Chapter 462
Beast taming, starting from zero point
Chapter 462: Chapter 434 Qiao Sang VS Shao Liben "Who do you think has the better chance of winning the finals?"
The audience on the court began discussing:
"It has to be Qiao Sang, doesnât it? Two high-level pet beasts, with such high proficiency in each pet beastâs advanced skills, he could even participate in the national college beast taming league. Thereâs no way he will lose."
"I also think itâs Qiao Sang. Just with Bingke Xilu alone I reckon he can take on two at once, and knock out that whatâs-his-name, Shao Liben."
"Donât speak too soon, Shao Liben was last yearâs regional champion."
"So what if he was the champion? I think this yearâs national champion of the national school beast taming league might just be Qiao Sang."
"Shao Libenâs Jihui Tata is also one of the rarer psychic beasts in the Xilü Area, not so easy to handle."
"Rare doesnât mean powerful."
"Then why are some people hanging up banners saying Bingke Xilu will definitely win the championship?" The man who spoke pointed to the location in Section D where the banners were being hung.
The person beside gave a scrutinizing look and asked with a hint of understanding:
"Youâre not from the Ancient Mist Region, are you?"
"How do you know?" the man asked with a face full of question marks.
"If you were from our Ancient Mist Region, you would never have asked that question."
"..."
...
The playersâ area.
"How confident are you?" Xu Yixuan asked.
"About fifty percent," Qiao Sang said.
"So modest!" Xu Yixuan was a bit surprised.
Qiao Sang glanced at her, "You wonât think so in a bit."
Xu Yixuan was puzzled; she didnât understand what he meant.
Qiao Sang had a Liaoxing Dog and a Bingke Xilu among his pet beasts; it didnât seem right that his chance of winning was only fifty percent.
But Qiao Sangâs words just now seemed to suggest that his chances of winning might be even lower than fifty percent.
How could that be possible...
On the other side.
"Listen," said a woman in a formal dress, "most of the crowd is chanting Qiao Sangâs name."
Shao Liben responded calmly, "Thatâs just because Qiao Sang has Bingke Xilu, and we happen to be in the Ancient Mist Region."
Upon hearing this, the woman smiled, "On the battle field, you have to stay just as calm and maintain the same mindset you have now."
ÆrÄewebnoѵÑl.cÏm Shao Liben nodded, "I will."
At this moment, the time was 7:59:55 PM, and Yi Ao began following the procedure to announce the playersâ regions and names.
"Are you ready?" the woman asked.
"I am ready," Shao Liben responded solemnly.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a beam of white light shone down.
The next second, he appeared on the field.
Qiao Sang, at the age of 15, participated in the senior high section of the national school beast taming league and even won all the way to the present with a record of all victories. . . Shao Liben studied the slender figure in the distance, thinking that everyone said there was no shame in losing to such a freak, but as long as it was a competition, he wouldnât adopt a losing mindset until the referee blew the whistle for the end.
Amid the exhilarating bgm, Qiao Sang and Shao Liben made their hand seals.
Green star arrays and grey star arrays lit up simultaneously.
As the first two pet beasts appeared on the field, the bgm abruptly stopped, and the audience and playersâ area instantly became restless.
"Oh my, a Treasure-seeking Demon and Jihui Tata?!"
"Why would it be a Treasure-seeking Demon? I thought it would be either Bingke Xilu or the Liaoxing Dog."
"Is it possible Qiao Sang thought Shao Liben would send out a Grey Fire Fox as his first pet beast?"
"Wouldnât it have been better if it were the Gray Fire Fox? Both Bingke Xilu and the Liaoxing Dog could crush it!"
"Qiao Sang usually sends out a Treasure-seeking Demon against mid-level Pet Beasts, but it seems like heâs really made a misjudgment this time."
"Actually, losing one battle isnât a big deal. The whereabouts of the Treasure-seeking Demon are the hardest to grasp, so it should be able to wear down Jihui Tata a bit. Then just send in Bingke Xilu to take them two in a row."
"Itâs a bit challenging for Bingke Xilu to take on two in a row, I think itâs more reliable to send the Liaoxing Dog."
"Donât jinx it, man! This is the final! Are you saying we wonât get a chance to see Bingke Xilu in action?!"
"... My bad."
As the audience was abuzz with commentary, the atmosphere in a certain part of the playersâ area had become somewhat tense.
Sun Boyi had just finished setting up the camera and twitched repeatedly at the corners of his eyes upon seeing the Pet Beast that appeared in the arena.
You said to send out the two most assured Pet Beasts for victory! Was our talk yesterday for nothing!
"Qiao Sang is really..." Sun Boyi sighed heavily.
Xu Yixuan was quite silent at the moment.
When she saw the Treasure-seeking Demon, her first thought was that Qiao Sang had predicted wrongly, assuming the opponent would send out the Gray Fire Fox first.
But as she abruptly recalled her recent conversation with Qiao Sang, she immediately knew it was not the case.
Qiao Sang had summoned the Treasure-seeking Demon after guessing that the opponent would send out Jihui Tata...
No wonder she couldnât become a freak, a normal personâs thought process simply couldnât deduce this...
...
On the field.
"Xun Xun~"
Xiao Xunbao looked very excited, gazing at its opponent in front of it.
Being on the field meant that in the eyes of its Beast Tamer, it had surpassed Yaobao and Lubao in yesterdayâs training!
So what if itâs the third one? Training makes it the strongest!
"Jihui." Jihui Tata studied the facial expressions and subtle movements of its opponent, subconsciously analyzing their meaning.
Shao Liben, on the other hand, maintained a calm expression, showing no significant change even upon seeing the entrance of the Treasure-seeking Demon.
In his view, no matter which Pet Beast the other side sent out, as long as he played seriously and aimed for victory, that was enough.
Jihui Tata, a Psychic Series high-level Pet Beast, was renowned for predicting the opponentâs next movement based on their actions... Qiao Sang looked at the pet beast in the distance, silver-gray with a single eye situated on top of a triangular tower-like body, and information about it flashed through his mind.
If Jihui Tata really was able to predict based on the opponentâs subtle movements as the data suggested, that would play right into his hands... Qiao Sang glanced at Xiao Xunbao.
At that moment, the mechanical sound signifying the start of the match rang out.
"Xun~"
Xiao Xunbao quickly raised a short toe on each of its two claws.
Beast taming, starting from zero point ï¤Chapter 461 - 433: Regional Finals The Devil's Betrothed ï¤Chapter 772: Wedding Night The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter ï¤Chapter 1041: BONUS - S: IN HER LIFE Jihui Tata, originally grounded, saw Xiao Xunbaoâs motion and quickly processed the information before vanishing from the spot, teleporting into mid-
air.
Just as Jihui Tata moved into mid-air, a dark Shadow Ball suddenly appeared atop the short toe raised by Xiao Xunbaoâs left claw.
The next second, the Shadow Ball shot towards Jihui Tataâs location.
Jihui Tata showed an expression of surprise and teleported to another direction.
"Bang!"
The Shadow Ball struck nothing, bursting open in mid-air.
The act of raising a short toe was not for executing Shadow Control... Shao Libenâs expression didnât change much, but his spirits sank.
He had reviewed the match videos of Qiao Sangâs each Pet Beast with Jihui Tata, including the Treasure-seeking Demon, of course.
To predict the opponentâs next move more accurately, it was essential to familiarize oneself with all the usual actions of the opponent in advance.
It seemed that Qiao Sang sending out the Treasure-seeking Demon was no accident; this was clearly training tailored specifically for Jihui Tata. But even for a mid-level Pet Beast, there was no need to specifically predict its next move... Thinking this, Shao Liben gave his command:
"Gravity."
