Chapter 15: But seek defeat

However, this competition takes place after the high school entrance exam, and even the registration period hasn’t started, so it’s impossible to participate now.

Other training grounds, large and small, also have restrictions.

Underground Yu Beast Master black matches, specifically for people to gamble and have fun, do not require the Yu Beast Master to reach any specific level.

These types of competitions have low thresholds; an E-level Beastmaster can participate, but those who join these underground matches are usually from all walks of life.

Agreements must be signed before the match, and the Pet’s life or death in battle is not considered.

In formal competitions, if one Pet loses its combat ability, a referee will promptly stop the match, and there will be a dedicated medical team in the back to provide Healing for the Pet.

Underground Yu Beast Master black matches are different; these matches only end when one Yu Beast Master automatically admits defeat.

Those who come to these matches are ruthless individuals and gamblers.

Some don’t care about their Pet’s life or death because their Pet has no potential, some are looking for quick money, and others simply seek the thrill of such violence.

In short, it’s not a place for a middle school student like Qiao Sang.

Fire Fang Dog is still too young, and Qiao Sang isn’t ready to expose it to such a cruel competition all at once.

According to Qiao Sang’s original plan, after the high school entrance exam, she would first train Fire Fang Dog’s speed and stamina. Once the basic training was solid, she would then practice controlling its ultimate moves.

The Gold Finger can give Fire Fang Dog Point bonuses through combat in a short period, but if its physical fitness doesn’t keep up and it can’t control its own energy, it won’t be able to exert the combat power a Pet of its level should have.

To make rapid progress now, they can’t take it so slowly.

Only actual combat can quickly enhance Fire Fang Dog’s combat power.

What Qiao Sang wanted was a battle where they stopped at the right moment, not a fight to the death.

Besides formal Yu Beast Master competitions and underground Yu Beast Master black matches, various regions also have training halls, clubs, and exchange events where Pet battles can take place.

Training halls recruit once every six months, specifically to help Yu Beast Masters train their Pet’s designated ultimate moves. It’s not the registration period now, so she can’t get in.

Clubs simply want money, and Qiao Sang doesn’t have any.

Exchange events are only for those who have appeared in formal competitions and received invitations.

Most people usually spar with friends during Pet battles, but none of the people Qiao Sang knows have even awakened their brain domain, let alone engaged in Pet battles.

After summarizing all this, there was surprisingly no place in the entire Hanggang City for Fire Fang Dog to have a proper fight.

Could she just randomly pull someone off the street and say, ‘I want to have a Pet battle with you’?

What if she pulled in a Yu Beast Master above D-level? She wouldn’t even know how she died.

Qiao Sang paced back and forth on the street, deep in thought.

Five minutes later, she walked towards home, holding Fire Fang Dog.

Qiao Sang returned home, took off her school uniform, changed into casual clothes, then went to her room, wrote a few words on paper, tore it off, and put a roll of tape in her pocket.

Then she slung on her backpack and left.

…

Nanhe Park, next to Hang Gang No. 37 Beast Taming High School.

“Student, would you like some barbecue?” the auntie at the park entrance called out from her stall.

Qiao Sang checked the time: 4:27 PM, about an hour until Hang Gang No. 37 Beast Taming High School let out.

“I’ll have 10 skewers of lamb,” Qiao Sang said, approaching the barbecue stall.

“Spicy?” the auntie asked with a grin, seeing a customer.

“No,” Qiao Sang shook her head.

“Are you from this school? I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before,” the auntie said, busy with her hands but still chatting.

“No, I’m waiting for someone,” Qiao Sang replied.

“I knew it! If I had seen such a pretty girl, I definitely wouldn’t forget her,” the auntie laughed.

Qiao Sang gave a polite smile.

She had been praised since she was a child. When she was little, she would get embarrassed, but as she grew up, she became numb to it.

Five minutes later, Qiao Sang took the lamb skewers and gave one to Fire Fang Dog, who was almost drooling.

“Woof!”

Fire Fang Dog barked happily, took the skewer with its two paws, and lowered its head to eat.

“What’s this Pet’s name? I’ve never seen one here before,” the auntie asked, staring at Fire Fang Dog.

There is a chasm between Yu Beast Masters and ordinary people, separating them into two worlds.

The situations they face after nine years of compulsory education are completely different.

However, although Yu Beast Masters have a higher status than ordinary people in this society, ordinary people are also divided into classes.

Those with power, those without power, those with money, those without money, those who run small businesses, those who work for others…

This power and money are determined at birth.

If they are not born with these, it is very difficult for ordinary people to access information about extraordinary creatures after nine years of compulsory education.

Even if information spreads widely and all channels broadcast these things, ordinary people don’t have the time or energy to understand.

Just making a living is difficult enough for them.

The auntie in front of her was clearly at the bottom tier among ordinary people.

“It’s called Fire Fang Dog,” Qiao Sang replied.

“Woof,” Fire Fang Dog, hearing its Yu Beast Master introduce it, barked appropriately.

The auntie smiled, “It looks so obedient! My son is also in middle school. When he graduates, I’ll buy him one of these too.”

Qiao Sang hesitated to speak.

Actually, that wasn’t wrong; her Fire Fang Dog, aside from being a little mischievous, was quite obedient…

“Woof.”

Fire Fang Dog looked up at Qiao Sang.

Qiao Sang handed another skewer of lamb from her hand.

Fire Fang Dog happily took it.

In the end, these ten lamb skewers were divided 30/70: Qiao Sang got three, and Fire Fang Dog got seven.

Qiao Sang went to a nearby bench and sat down.

The view from here perfectly overlooked the main entrance of Hang Gang No. 37 Beast Taming High School, and the location was just right; any students leaving school who passed through Nanhe Park would see her.

Qiao Sang put down her backpack and taped the paper from her pocket onto it.

“Pet Battle, I Only Seek Defeat”

There was also a small line of text in the bottom right corner.

“50 alliance coins per match”

This was the method Qiao Sang had thought of after much deliberation.

If you want to know where F-level Beastmasters are most abundant, it’s definitely in high school Yu Beast Master schools.

It takes at least 1-2 years to cultivate an Intermediate Pet, so the Pets of first and second-year high school students are basically still at the Beginner Pet stage.

Writing “50 alliance coins” was purely for fun; Qiao Sang didn’t expect anyone to battle her for such a small amount of money.

Qiao Sang just hoped to attract their attention. For high school students who had just become Yu Beast Masters, this was entertainment, and someone would always be willing to compete with her.

As for why she chose Hang Gang No. 37 Beast Taming High School, it was because this school was the closest one outside her home district.

She changed out of her school uniform and left her district, hoping not to run into anyone she knew.

After all, going to someone else’s school and writing “I Only Seek Defeat” is quite embarrassing…

Qiao Sang sat quietly on the bench, holding Fire Fang Dog.

Although Hang Gang No. 37 Beast Taming High School hadn’t let out yet, there were still other people in Nanhe Park.

As they passed Qiao Sang, they couldn’t help but turn their heads to look.

The content written on her backpack just didn’t seem to match the image of this young girl.

“Woof!”

Fire Fang Dog, seeing others looking, bared its teeth and barked.

Alright.

With this Fire Fang Dog, the image matched perfectly…
