Chapter 1049: Night Ring King (two in one)

As the broadcast continued, the TV screen switched to the surveillance footage.

It was precisely the scene where the Change Clothes Totem was captured.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao stared blankly at the TV, feeling as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over its head.

Its heart was completely chilled.

The Change Clothes Totem was captured, so what was the point of its desperate training and evolution?

In the future, when people saw it, would they only remember the scene of it being instantly defeated by the Change Clothes Totem?

Despair, deep despair.

Xiao Xunbao turned around in a daze and floated towards its room.

This moment finally arrived… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly, unsure how to speak.

“What’s wrong with Ghost Ring King?” Mi Jiala asked, seeing its state.

Qiao Sang lowered her voice and said:

“Last time, wasn’t it defeated by the Change Clothes Totem in broad daylight? It trained so hard and wanted to evolve early precisely so it could personally defeat the Change Clothes Totem in front of everyone.”

So that’s how it is… Mi Jiala suddenly understood.

She had been wondering why Ghost Ring King had suddenly become so diligent.

As thoughts flickered, Qiao Sang finally called out: “Xiao Xunbao.”

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao turned its head, its eyes hollow.

“I filmed your evolution, do you want to see it?” Qiao Sang pointed to the camera on the stand and asked.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao shook its head and turned to continue floating towards the room.

After it went in, the room door closed with a “bang.”

Qiao Sang and Ya Bao looked at each other.

Mi Jiala glanced at the tightly closed door and said: “I’ll head back now. Ghost Ring King has evolved, and normally, Teacher Fulaoda should be called immediately to check on it, but given its current state, it should probably be allowed to calm down. The check-up can wait until tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Qiao Sang nodded: “Goodbye, Teacher.”

Mi Jiala disappeared from the spot.

“Gui Gui?”

At this moment, Gui Naoke called out, indicating whether it was still hired.

It had also seen the news and understood that the target it was searching for had already been captured.

“Steel Sword.”

Steel Treasure translated at the right time.

Qiao Sang coughed and said: “Next time, if there’s another target to find, I’ll definitely call you.”

“Gui Gui.”

Gui Naoke nodded and called out.

“Steel Sword.”

Steel Treasure translated.

It said to remember to pay the remaining points for this time.

Qiao Sang picked up her phone and immediately paid the remaining nine points.

“I’ve already given them.” She showed her phone to Gui Naoke.

“Gui Gui.”

After glancing at it, Gui Naoke bid farewell and drilled its entire body into the computer screen, disappearing.

The living room fell silent for a moment.

“Ya Ya?”

A few seconds later, Ya Bao pointed towards the room, its expression slightly worried, and called out, indicating that Xiao Xunbao seemed unhappy.

“I know.” Qiao Sang sighed.

“Bing Di.”

Lu Bao called out calmly, indicating that it could use Therapeutic Sound Wave on Xiao Xunbao to help it regain a good mood.

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said: “Let’s not. After the effect of the Therapeutic Sound Wave wears off, it will still remember the Change Clothes Totem incident.”

The living room fell silent again for a brief moment.

“Qing Qing.”

Suddenly, Qing Bao called out, indicating that it had an idea.

Qiao Sang and Ya Bao immediately looked at it.

“Qing Qing.”

Qing Bao blinked its eyes and, with an innocent expression, stated its plan.

Since Xiao Xunbao wanted to capture the Change Clothes Totem with its own hands, we can just release it and let Xiao Xunbao capture it again.

Qiao Sang: “…”

Lu Bao: “…”

Steel Treasure: “…”

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Bao’s eyes lit up, and it called out, indicating that this was a good idea.

“That idea won’t work.” Qiao Sang mercilessly denied it.

“Ya Ya…”

Ya Bao’s eager expression instantly faded.

If its Yu Beast Master said it wouldn’t work, then it definitely wouldn’t.

Qing Bao didn’t seem too disappointed at hearing this.

The living room fell silent for the third time.

After a few brief seconds, Qiao Sang dropped a line, “I’m going to talk to Xiao Xunbao,” and walked towards the room.

Arriving at the door, she knocked.

After about three seconds, the door opened automatically.

Qiao Sang stepped inside, saw Xiao Xunbao squatting in the corner, closed the door, and asked:

“You’re not crying, are you?”

Xiao Xunbao’s body suddenly stiffened.

“The Change Clothes Totem is King-level, and you are General-level. It’s normal for you to lose to it.” Qiao Sang organized her words and said: “Even Ya Bao and Lu Bao wouldn’t be able to defeat a King-level Pet when they were General-level.”

“Xun Xun!”

“Xun Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao turned its head, snot and tears streaming down its face.

But it lost too badly, and so many people saw it, and it even made the news!

“You’re online every day, you know there’s new news every day.” Qiao Sang comforted it: “People just look for novelty; they remember quickly and forget quickly. If you search for news about the Change Clothes Totem now, it will definitely all be about its capture. No one will remember you being defeated by it.”

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao sobbed.

Really?

“Really.” Qiao Sang nodded.

“Xun Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao burst into tears.

But as long as you search online, you can find this incident! Many people will still see it.

Xiao Xunbao cares more about what others think than I imagined… Qiao Sang realized this and said:

“What everyone will always remember are the grandest competitions, or the most classic ones. Secret Realm rifts and Change Clothes Totems appear here every day. Let alone yesterday’s incident, even the Change Clothes Totem itself will be forgotten in a few days. But everyone won’t forget the time we won the championship together in the Central Regional Competition.”

“Xiao Xunbao…” Xiao Xunbao stopped crying and looked blankly at its Yu Beast Master.

Qiao Sang continued:

“As long as we participate in grander competitions and stand on larger competition stages, when people see you, they will only think of your performance in the competition.”

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao still felt a bit sad.

But there are so many videos online of it being instantly defeated by the Change Clothes Totem.

“What if there are no such videos?” Qiao Sang said.

“Xun Xun?!”

Xiao Xunbao’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Qiao Sang smiled and said:

“You forgot, when we participated in the Regional Competition, the teacher mentioned that some players, to prevent opponents from studying them, would delete all related incidents about themselves online.”

“Xun Xun!”

“Xun Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao nodded excitedly again and again.

It remembered, it remembered!

Seeing this, Qiao Sang almost laughed out loud. She controlled herself and maintained her original expression, saying:

“We can also find Pets with such functions to delete information.”

“Xun Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao looked excited, sniffled, and eagerly floated to its Yu Beast Master’s side, calling out, indicating that they should hurry and find one!

Qiao Sang handed over her phone, her tone amused:

“You post the task.”

“Xun Xun~”

Xiao Xunbao took the phone, eagerly logged onto the Imperial Beast Academy’s official website, and seriously entered the task requirements.

Finally done… Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief, then thought of something, closed her eyes, and her consciousness entered the yu beast codex.

The page turned, quickly arriving at the page about Xiao Xunbao.

Ghost-type, Superpower System, Evil-type… Evil-type…

Evil-type?!

Qiao Sang was truly shocked.

Her shock at this moment was no less than when she first saw Ya Bao evolve and saw for the first time in the data that a Pet had awakened an Ultra-level skill from its bloodline due to evolution, that feeling like her brain had been heavily hammered.

She remembered that the Night Ring King form only had the Ghost-type attribute!

How did an Evil-type suddenly appear?

Isn’t that an attribute only found in the evolution chain from Treasure Hunting Ghost to Treasure Hunting Spirit?!

Could it be because Xiao Xunbao is an odd color?

But that’s not right, Xiao Xunbao already has the Superpower System attribute…

Could it be that there was too much Evil-type energy contained in the ghost mist it absorbed back then?

But that shouldn’t be the case either. She had never heard of absorbing energy of another attribute being able to stimulate a related attribute…

However, speaking of which, no wonder Xiao Xunbao’s original body color turned black after evolving into Night Ring King. Could it be because it was affected by the Evil attribute…

All sorts of thoughts instantly popped into her mind. Qiao Sang slowly exhaled, suppressed her quickening heartbeat, and looked down.

No matter why Xiao Xunbao gained the Evil attribute, it was a good thing. It would definitely be much easier to learn Evil-attribute related moves in the future.

She remembered that Xiao Xunbao had wanted to awaken the Mutual Demise characteristic back then, but unfortunately, this was an Evil-type characteristic, and Pets without the Evil attribute couldn’t awaken it.

Now that it has gained the Evil-type, maybe it can try… Just as she was thinking, Qiao Sang saw the words “Mutual Demise.”

Mutual Demise?

Holy cow, Xiao Xunbao awakened the Mutual Demise characteristic?!

Her heart, which she had just suppressed, began to pound wildly again.

Qiao Sang was both shocked and pleasantly surprised.

She was shocked that she had just thought of this characteristic, only to find that Xiao Xunbao had awakened it. She was pleasantly surprised that Xiao Xunbao had awakened this characteristic.

She still remembered the scene where the Phantom Fury Fox, with this characteristic, directly triggered Ya Bao’s Raging Flames even though it was one level lower than Ya Bao.

If Xiao Xunbao knew it had awakened this characteristic, it would surely be overjoyed… Qiao Sang steadied her emotions and continued to look down.

Nightmare…

Another Evil-type characteristic.

This characteristic is also good. Paired with Xiao Xunbao’s Hypnosis, it can deal damage to opponents even when they are in a sleeping state.

She looked at the new skills Xiao Xunbao had awakened.

Revenge, an Evil-type high-level skill. If this move is used before taking damage, it can greatly return the damage from the last received move to the opponent.

Xiao Xunbao’s defense is too low. If the damage from the last received move is too great, it probably won’t be able to return it…

Wonder Room, a Superpower System high-level skill. Creates a bizarre space. For a certain period, Pets in this space will swap their respective defenses and defensive characteristics.

Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up.

This skill is good! Xiao Xunbao’s biggest weakness currently is its defense. Over 90% of Pets at the same stage have higher defense than it. With this skill, it can completely make up for this weakness.

If it encounters a Pet with even lower defense than Xiao Xunbao, it can also choose not to use this skill.

Train! This skill must be trained!

With excited emotions, Qiao Sang looked at the last skill.

Shadow Penetration…

Shadow Penetration?

The Ultra-level skill Shadow Penetration used by that Witch Secret Demon?

Qiao Sang was stunned, and an unspeakable pleasant surprise surged in her heart.

The Ultra-level skill Shadow Penetration can both move strangely and absorb incoming skills.

Back then, the Witch Secret Demon relied on this move to single-handedly withstand several of Ya Bao and the others.

Although Xiao Xunbao hasn’t awakened any powerful offensive means, with these characteristics and skills, it can completely achieve victory against stronger opponents, which is very difficult to do for Pets that have already reached the King-level stage.

Qiao Sang took a deep breath, calmed her excited emotions, and her consciousness returned to reality.

The first thing she saw was Xiao Xunbao holding the phone, typing seriously, as if replying to something.

“How is it, have you found a Pet that can eliminate online messages?” Qiao Sang asked with a smile.

“Xun Xun~”

Xiao Xunbao typed while calling out, indicating that it hadn’t yet, but over a dozen people had already signed up, and it was currently screening them.

Qiao Sang was stunned:

“Have that many people already taken the task?”

“Xun Xun~”

Xiao Xunbao nodded without lifting its head.

I haven’t been in the yu beast codex for long, how could so many people have taken the task… Qiao Sang suddenly had a bad premonition and asked:

“How many points did you offer as a reward?” (End of chapter)
