Chapter 317: Deserves to be first in the province

“What’s wrong? You’re so jumpy.” The man on the other end of the phone sounded pleased, indicating he was in a good mood.

“Qiao Sang from Saint Water Middle School! Her Treasure Hunting Fairy used Dark Shadow Control in the recent match!” The middle-aged man’s voice trembled with excitement.

Huang Renbiao was stunned: “What shadow?”

“Dark Shadow Control!” The middle-aged man added with a trembling voice, “It’s that move Ghost-type Pet use to manipulate shadows!”

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a serious voice: “Are you sure? Could you have seen it wrong?”

“Principal!” The middle-aged man was anxious: “How can I, Old Li, as a C-level Beastmaster, possibly be mistaken?!”

Huang Renbiao remained silent for a long time, so long that the middle-aged man thought his phone was broken.

Finally, his voice came through: “What’s the proficiency level?”

Dark Shadow Control, let alone in the provincial competition, is an incredibly powerful skill even in the National Competition, but if its proficiency isn’t high, it’s not impossible to prepare in advance.

The fear is that the proficiency has already reached mastery, and shadow control has transformed into a materialized attack, evolving from two-dimensional to three-dimensional.

If that were truly the case, then Ding Yanjing…

“I’m not sure about the proficiency, but I guess it’s not high.” The middle-aged man’s first reaction was to find the question a bit amusing: “How old is Qiao Sang? I already feel like I’m dreaming that her Treasure Hunting Fairy can learn Dark Shadow Control, so how could its proficiency be high…?”

He paused here, his tone changing as he hesitated:

“However, Qiao Sang cannot be viewed in the usual way. It doesn’t seem impossible for Dark Shadow Control to have a high proficiency on her Pet, considering the recent match only involved control…”,

As he spoke, the middle-aged man’s expression grew more serious, and he said, “I will continue to monitor her and report any new information immediately!”

…

On a lush, green lawn.

Ding Yanjing whispered to the boy beside him, “What’s wrong with the Principal? He was overjoyed when Guwei Flower evolved into Guwei Sunflower just now, but after taking a call, his face turned completely black.”

Before the boy could answer, Huang Renbiao, not far away, frowned and said, “Do you want to speak even louder? I can hear you.”

Ding Yanjing: “…”

The boy gave him a look that said, “You’re on your own.”

However, Huang Renbiao didn’t bother with him further; instead, he picked up his phone and dialed a number.

After a few rings, the call connected.

“Hello, Xiao Song, when you update the post today, focus on analyzing Qiao Sang from Saint Water Middle School. Old Li called and said her Treasure Hunting Fairy used Dark Shadow Control in today’s match… Yes, it’s the move you’re thinking of. I’ll have Old Li send you the video later. Write in detail about how to counter Dark Shadow Control.”

On the other side.

The middle-aged man hung up the phone and returned to the venue. He was about to find a seat to continue watching the match when he noticed everyone was gradually leaving.

The people walking out completely ignored the middle-aged man who was moving against the flow of the crowd.

What’s going on?

Why is everyone leaving?

The middle-aged man looked bewildered. He quickly put the Pet in his pocket back into his yu beast codex, then grabbed a passerby and asked, “Why are you all leaving?”

The person he grabbed said inexplicably, “The match is over. Why would we stay?”

With that, he pulled his hand free and strode away.

Leaving the middle-aged man standing there utterly bewildered.

The match is over?!

It’s over just in the time it took me to make a phone call?!

There were six matches in total; wasn’t Qiao Sang only just finished with one when he left?!

It’s already over?!

…

In the dormitory within the West Huai District Pet training ground.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao excitedly mimicked and gestured its brave performance in today’s match.

It exaggerated greatly, taking advantage of the fact that Ya! was not present.

What was originally just controlling the opponent to spin in circles, it exaggerated into controlling the opponent and flinging them around like noodles.

“Ya! Ya! ”

Ya! was very cooperative and showed a surprised expression.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Seeing this, Xiao Xunbao gestured even more vigorously, completely forgetting its original intention of going on stage to get revenge on Ya!.

Beside them, Big Flame Sparrow stared intently at Xiao Xunbao, a thoughtful expression on its face.

This guy is so strong; it seems like a fight with it wouldn’t be bad.

Qiao Sang was lying on her side on the bed, looking at her phone, when she suddenly sat up and said:

“Who posted that thread on the forum homepage summarizing the first-tier members of the entire province? Our match just ended not long ago, and all the information has already been updated. The news is too well-informed.”

“Didn’t they say there’s a live broadcast on the official website? They probably watched it there,” Wang Yao said, playing with her phone on another bed.

No, Qiao Sang carefully looked at the three pinned posts.

The author of these three posts was the same ID, updating almost at the same time every day.

Many matches from first to third year high school were held during the same time period.

If they only watched the live broadcast, they could at most watch a few matches. It would be impossible to understand all the members who competed from first to third year high school on that day within less than an hour after the matches ended.

It didn’t look like the work of one person, but rather the compilation of many people.

Qiao Sang re-opened the post summarizing the third-year high school section.

Unlike yesterday.

This time, she was placed first.

【Qiao Sang, Female, Saint Water Middle School, Pet Yan Ling Dog, Treasure Hunting Fairy, and one unknown】

【This person sent out Treasure Hunting Fairy for all six matches today! Latest intelligence! This Treasure Hunting Fairy knows Dark Shadow Control!】

【Dark Shadow Control! A high-level skill! In our Zhehai Province, it can be said to be unprecedented! Those unfamiliar with this skill can look it up】

【But don’t panic, although Dark Shadow Control is a high-level skill, it’s not invincible】

【The principle of Dark Shadow Control is to connect shadows to control the opponent. As long as your Pet moves fast enough not to have its shadow connected, or uses a clone to make it difficult for Treasure Hunting Fairy to distinguish the main body, it’s completely fine if the clone is controlled】

【After the first stage of the preliminaries ends, the venue for each subsequent match will change. At that time, if you’re lucky enough to have a suitable venue, the Pet can always hide in dark places where shadows can be obscured】

Qiao Sang looked at the update time of this first floor.

10:02 AM.

It was posted less than 3 minutes after her match ended.

If she hadn’t specifically paid attention to her own information when looking at the posts today, she wouldn’t have noticed this.

Ordinary students have classes, and School Team members have matches. At most, they would pay special attention to their own grade level. Who would post such detailed and timely information about all the participating members from first to third year high school?

Wait, Qiao Sang suddenly remembered something and flipped to the page about Ding Yanjing and other members of Li Tan Royal Pet High School.

She was astonished to find that not all school members’ information was that detailed, for example, Li Tan Royal Pet High School.

For members of other schools, the楼主 had detailed insights into their Pets.

But Li Tan did not.

Things like Control Scale Puppet being large, having slow conventional movement speed, and dodging psychic control, seemed like a joke compared to the analysis of members from other schools.

Qiao Sang couldn’t help but laugh.

If it was truly as she thought, then Li Tan Royal Pet High School deserved to always be the first in the province.
