Chapter 240: I attend

“There aren’t any specific events I really want to participate in. I’ll see when the time comes; I’ll fill in wherever someone is needed,” Qiao Sang said casually, then asked, “What about you? Which one do you want to join?”

Although Jin Feifan wasn’t a bad student, as one of the few specially recruited students in the class, she was definitely a strong candidate for the sports meet.

“I want to compete in shuttlecock kicking,” Jin Feifan said, embarrassed.

“That event is simple. And your Pet is Little Qiu Pu, so it feels like a sure win,” Qiao Sang said with a smile.

Pets cannot use skills when kicking a shuttlecock, but they can use their heads, feet, and other body parts to catch the shuttlecock, excluding their upper limbs. The Vine Whip of a Grass-type Pet is also part of its body, so it can be used to catch the shuttlecock according to the rules.

Generally speaking, Grass-type Pets have a high chance of winning this event.

The first class was with the homeroom teacher.

When class started, Li Yi walked in, accompanied by a Gravity Monkey holding a box of school uniforms.

The school uniforms were distributed one by one.

Looking at the school uniform in her hand, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but feel emotional. In this Yu Beast society, putting everything else aside, the efficiency was truly fast.

In her previous life, when new students reported their sizes at the beginning of the school year, school uniforms would normally be distributed within half a month. But now, it had been less than five days, and they already had them.

During class, Li Yi sped up the lecture content, explaining at double speed, and everyone listened effortlessly.

Except for Qiao Sang.

Qiao Sang wrote notes frantically, wishing she had two more hands.

Although her memory had improved a lot, in a class full of academic prodigies, she had to work hard!

By the time the class content was finished, there was still a large portion of time left before class ended.

Li Yi clapped his hands and said, “For the remaining time, let’s continue yesterday’s topic. The school’s sports meet will be held on September 29th, and this will be the first sports meet you all participate in.”

“Although our class is recognized as the best in academic performance across the entire grade, I hope that the students in our class develop comprehensively in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, and aesthetics, and can also achieve impressive results in the sports meet. I know that the students in our class absolutely possess this ability!”

While speaking, the homeroom teacher kept his eyes straight ahead. It seemed as if he was addressing the entire class, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that these polite words had just been spoken yesterday, and speaking them again today was clearly directed at Qiao Sang.

Qiao Sang had no reaction and was still buried in her newly finished notes, deepening her impression.

Li Yi glanced out of the corner of his eye and continued, “Students, in response to the call, I solemnly promise you today: as long as we take first place, from now on, the physical education teacher will absolutely never get sick during PE classes!”

Laughter erupted in the classroom.

Jin Feifan whispered, “Do homeroom teachers all like to do this? My junior high homeroom teacher said the same thing, but the PE teacher was still sickly and kept taking leave. I barely saw him throughout my entire third year of junior high.”

Qiao Sang looked up and asked, “Did your class get first place in the sports meet back then?”

Jin Feifan was stunned for a moment: “We got fourth.”

“Then you can’t blame your junior high homeroom teacher,” Qiao Sang said with a smile.

Jin Feifan: “…”

Soon, the selection process began in earnest.

“First item, 400-meter hurdles sprint, anyone participating?” Li Yi asked, looking around.

Hurdles sprint is an athletic event completed jointly by a Yu Beast Master and a Pet. The Pet wears a sensing device on its head, while the Yu Beast Master wears an electronic visual device at the starting line.

There won’t be actual hurdles placed directly on the track, but they will be displayed on the Yu Beast Master’s electronic visual device.

When the Pet is about to reach the position of a hurdle, the Yu Beast Master must jump hard in place, and the sensing device will allow the Pet to perceive its Yu Beast Master’s action.

At this point, the Pet must jump, because the hurdle will suddenly rise from the ground.

Hurdles sprint tests the Pet’s speed, reaction ability, and the level of tacit understanding and trust between it and the Yu Beast Master. For first-year high school students who have just become Yu Beast Masters, it is quite challenging.

Despite this, many people still raised their hands to sign up.

They were all people who had just become Yu Beast Masters, full of youthful spirit, and moreover, they were students of the Yu Chong Class at the city’s top Yu Beast High School.

The registration proceeded quite smoothly, and fifteen minutes later.

Li Yi looked at the registration list in his hand and cleared his throat: “Everyone, quiet down. There are still three events with no participants: Chop, Swimming Relay, and Aerial Ring. Is anyone willing to give them a try?”

Almost the entire class looked towards Qiao Sang’s direction, intentionally or unintentionally.

“Qiao Sang, aren’t you signing up?” a classmate sitting in front turned around and asked in a low voice.

Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched. She said, “These events don’t seem to suit me.”

She had originally thought of filling in wherever needed, but she never expected these three to be left.

Chop, an exclusive event for Fighting-type Pets. Those who participate are basically Fighting-type Pets; Pets of other attributes are just cannon fodder.

Swimming Relay, an event completed jointly by Water-type Pets and Yu Beast Masters. Although she had already pre-ordered Water Luyana as her third Pet, she hadn’t contracted it yet, and she couldn’t guarantee that her yu beast codex would have a third page before the sports meet.

Aerial Ring, a choice for Flying-type Pets. There’s no rule that only Flying-type Pets can participate, but Flying-type Pets have a huge advantage in this event.

Pets have to snatch rings floating in the air. Whoever can first hook a ring onto a hook on the target below is considered the winner.

Rings will be replenished promptly, and the remaining Pets will continue to compete, ranking in order.

During this period, wind-making devices will create wind to interfere. The rules state that skills cannot be used against competing Pets, but they can be used against the rings.

Except for Superpower.

Skills can also be used to accelerate in the air.

Except for teleportation.

What kind of game is this!

Qiao Sang almost suspected that these rules were specifically designed for Superpower System Pets.

Overall, this event was time-consuming and energy-intensive, testing the Pet’s grasp of wind direction and wind force.

Yan Ling Dog and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost could participate, but with these rules, where they couldn’t attack opponents or use teleportation, how could they possibly beat Flying-type Pets, which had an advantage in the air?

Just as Qiao Sang was secretly shaking her head, Li Yi finally couldn’t help but call out her name: “Qiao Sang, aren’t you participating in an event?”

Qiao Sang shook her head: “These events aren’t suitable for my Pet.”

“I think your Yan Ling Dog and Treasure Hunting Ghost are both quite suitable for participating in Aerial Ring,” Li Yi said with a chuckle.

He was practically speaking nonsense. Qiao Sang said, “I think Yu Zhao is more suitable than me.”

The Yu Zhao Qiao Sang mentioned was the one who was chasing Little Chubby Dove all over the place on the first day of school.

Yu Zhao, who was originally watching the commotion, was startled and quickly refused: “I can’t do it!”

He didn’t want to participate in any stupid sports meet!

He already spent so much time studying normally; where would he find the time and energy to train!

“Qiao Sang, as our class’s—” Li Yi looked at Qiao Sang, about to play the emotional card to persuade her, but halfway through his sentence, he was startled by a sudden appearance of a Pet and choked on his words.

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost appeared, its expression excited as it pointed to an event written on the blackboard.

All the students followed its gaze to the blackboard.

Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched: “Are you sure?”

“Xiao Xunbao!” Little Treasure Hunting Ghost nodded with a serious expression.

Qiao Sang was silent for a few seconds, then turned and said, “Teacher, I’ll participate.”

Li Yi heard this and said with surprise, “That’s right! Although Aerial Ring is usually for Flying-type Pets, I and the classmates all believe in your strength.”

Qiao Sang was stunned: “Teacher, I’m not participating in Aerial Ring. I want to participate in Chop.”

Li Yi: “???”

“Xiao Xunbao~”
