Chapter 447: National competition! I am coming!

Actually, besides Fire-type skills, Xiao Xunbao wasn’t completely without other powerful destructive skills; there was Destructive Beam.

It was just that Xiao Xunbao had never practiced Destructive Beam before, and currently, it was only at the Beginner level.

With a Beginner-level Destructive Beam, she couldn’t guarantee that she could defeat the Fire Finch in one blow.

However, this wasn’t a big problem. Whether it was adding Points or practicing directly, she could train Destructive Beam’s proficiency to the Minor Accomplishment level before the National Competition.

If Destructive Beam were truly used as a trump card, the Point to consider would be how to ensure Destructive Beam accurately hits the Fire Finch, as one would be unable to move for a certain period of time after using Destructive Beam.

If it missed, Xiao Xunbao would be finished.

Qiao Sang’s思路 was very clear, and she quickly determined the direction of the next training.

First, she would have Xiao Xunbao train Destructive Beam to the Minor Accomplishment level, ensuring that this move could directly defeat the Fire Finch when it hit.

As for how to ensure Destructive Beam could hit the Fire Finch with 100% accuracy, that would need to be continuously refined in the upcoming training.

Thinking of it, Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Xunbao: “We’ll start by practicing the skill release of Destructive Beam.”

“Ya!”

Hearing her Yu Beast Master’s words, Xiao Xunbao immediately put down the Gravity steel bead, circulated its energy, and prepared to use Destructive Beam.

“Wait!” Seeing a terrifyingly powerful white energy condensing in Xiao Xunbao’s mouth, Qiao Sang was startled and quickly shouted: “Don’t practice here!”

Although she had never seen a Pet use Destructive Beam in reality, she had seen many in TV shows and movies.

That power, if practiced directly in the hotel, she would likely appear in the news of the Central Empty Region tomorrow.

Fortunately, Xiao Xunbao’s energy circulation was now fluid, and upon hearing her, it dispelled the Destructive Beam that had not yet been released.

Phew… Qiao Sang silently breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and said: “I’ll find a suitable place for us to practice again.”

“Ya!”

Xiao Xunbao nodded.

…

The sun gradually sank below the horizon, and night had not yet fallen.

At an outdoor training ground.

Xiao Xunbao, Xiao Xunbao, and Ice Ke were each training.

Qiao Sang was making notes nearby: [Proficient level Destructive Beam, 8 seconds]

With a large amount of B-grade energy recovery fluid as a recovery method, Xiao Xunbao only took one afternoon to train Destructive Beam from Beginner to Proficient.

Qiao Sang keenly noticed that after a Beginner-level Destructive Beam was used, the immobility period was 9 seconds, while for a Proficient-level Destructive Beam, it was 8 seconds.

It seemed that as proficiency increased, the immobility period after using Destructive Beam would also decrease…

Just as Qiao Sang was pondering, by a patch of bushes about twenty meters away from her.

“Did you see it?” a dark-skinned man asked.

“Laidai.” A Pet beside him, about 70 centimeters tall, mostly yellow, with the corners of its mouth pulled downwards, looking very haggard, similar to a salamander, nodded.

“Later, you just fall down next to that Destructive Beam,” the man said. “If this deal succeeds, I’ll take you out for a big meal tonight.”

“Laidai!” The haggard-looking Pet’s mouth watered instinctively upon hearing this. It slurped, sucking the saliva back into its mouth, and nodded vigorously with a serious expression.

Here, Xiao Xunbao took a sip of energy recovery fluid and continued to use Destructive Beam.

Then, it stayed put, unable to move.

“Ah ah ah! My Laidai!” A voice suddenly rang out.

Following the voice, a man ran over with a panicked expression.

Qiao Sang looked over at the sound and found that in the previously empty training ground, a Pet was suddenly lying on the ground, eyes closed and unmoving.

The fallen position was exactly within the range where Xiao Xunbao had just used Destructive Beam.

Good heavens, why did this scene look so much like a staged accident… A bad premonition rose in Qiao Sang’s heart.

At this moment, a mechanical voice sounded nearby:

[Laidai, an Evil-type Intermediate Pet from the Tuwei Region, rough in nature, often spits at opponents to Taunt, but once it recognizes a Yu Beast Master, it becomes extremely trusting and also highly values its own kind.]

Qiao Sang turned her head, and Xiao Xunbao silently put away its Pet Identifier.

“You made my Laidai like this! Tell me, what are you going to do?” The man shouted loudly at the young girl not far away.

It really was the legendary staged accident, this luck… Qiao Sang was speechless internally.

The outdoor Pet training ground was large, and not many people came to train here, so they were quite spread out.

However, human nature is to love a good show. With the man’s shout, everyone’s gossip radar immediately activated, and they all gathered around.

The young girl in front of him didn’t speak for a moment, and the man felt smug.

As a professional staged accident artist, he had targeted the young girl in front of him early on.

She wasn’t old, but she had three Pets. Although he couldn’t identify what these three Pets were, he had normal eyesight.

The red and white Pet and the blue Pet had magnificent appearances. Even in a place like the Imperial Capital, where rare Pets were common, he had never seen them. They clearly weren’t cheap.

Especially that red and white Pet, it actually wore a light-type shrinking wristband on its claw!

This kind of thing wasn’t something you could just buy anywhere.

Although the young girl looked like a high school student, based on his many years of staged accident experience, he guessed at a glance that she should be a university student who looked a bit younger. After all, how could a high school student contract three Pets?

And university students had less social experience, were the most naive and easily deceived. While primary and secondary school students would call their parents if something happened, university students would not.

University students with rare Pets like this absolutely had very high living expenses.

She must be panicking to death now.

See, she couldn’t even speak.

So what if her Yu Beast Master talent was high? She would still be played by him.

Just as the man was secretly gloating, he saw the young girl smile slightly and say, “Xiao Xunbao, Destructive Beam.”

The man’s expression stiffened.

Destructive Beam?

She was going to use Destructive Beam on him?!

Eight seconds passed, and Xiao Xunbao, who had long since regained its mobility, opened its mouth, and a powerful white energy immediately condensed within it.

Holy crap! This girl was actually serious! The man suddenly realized that he had met a tough opponent. He immediately shouted:

“Wait!”

Qiao Sang was just trying to scare him and had no intention of actually doing it, but she found it quite amusing to see Laidai with its eyes closed, still pretending to be unconscious like that, and wanted to see when it would finally “wake up,” so she didn’t speak.

The man saw the Destructive Beam condensing in the red and white Pet’s mouth growing larger and larger, and cold sweat broke out. He picked up Laidai, quickly got up, and ran.

Seeing that there was no more excitement so quickly, the onlookers let out a disappointed “Oh” and dispersed.

“Xiao Xunbao, stop,” Qiao Sang said.

Xiao Xunbao heard her and dispersed the condensed energy.

Watching the man run for a long time, with Laidai still appearing unconscious in his arms, Qiao Sang couldn’t suppress her curiosity and said:

“Make them stop.”

“Ya!”

Xiao Xunbao’s eyes glowed blue.

An invisible force instantly fell upon the still-running man.

Oh my, why can’t I run anymore… The man’s face was filled with despair.

Some onlookers who were still paying attention to the commotion brightened their eyes and gathered around again.

Qiao Sang walked forward.

“Little beauty, I was wrong!” The man’s face turned pale.

He couldn’t understand why there were so many foolish university students, yet he was so unlucky to have encountered someone difficult to mess with!

Still pretending like this… Qiao Sang walked closer and examined Laidai for a while. The more she looked, the more surprised she became, because she found that this Pet seemed to be genuinely unconscious.

“It…”

“It’s fine!” The man looked at the young girl in front of him, feeling a chill in his heart, and quickly explained: “It’s just used the skill Deception right now!”

Qiao Sang looked at the man: “Deception?”

Still a university student, and doesn’t even know Deception… The man complained internally, but outwardly he was submissive: “Deception is an Evil-type skill that allows oneself to fall into a state where even oneself is deceived.”

Qiao Sang thought, so that’s how it is. It’s a pity this skill doesn’t go into acting.

She didn’t notice that Xiao Xunbao was showing an interested expression beside her at this moment.

“Goodness! To specifically make a Pet learn Deception to stage an accident, this guy definitely hasn’t done this for the first time!” Someone among the onlookers couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted loudly.

“Yeah, I bet he picked this spot because there are no surveillance cameras, thinking the young girl would be easy to fool, and deliberately targeted her!”

“Luckily the young girl is capable; if she had met someone with a soft personality, she would have been scammed to death!”

“This guy’s accent immediately tells me he’s not from our Central Empty Region. Where did he come from? Go back quickly!”

Everyone condemned him one after another.

“Why don’t we send him to the police station!” someone suggested at this Point.

The people around heard this and thought it made sense.

A group of people came up and restrained the man.

“What right do you have to arrest me! I haven’t done anything yet!” The man struggled and roared.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang turned to leave, but then found her clothes being pulled.

She turned her head and saw it was a stylishly dressed auntie.

The auntie smiled: “Little girl, don’t leave. You’re the party involved, you have to come along to give a statement.”

Qiao Sang: “…”

…

At night, after Qiao Sang re-read all the opponent’s information for the National Competition, she suddenly saw Xiao Xunbao lying on the bed with its eyes closed, unmoving, as if asleep.

“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang went over and poked Xiao Xunbao’s belly.

“Xiao Xunbao.” Xiao Xunbao called out with its eyes closed, indicating it was learning Deception.

Qiao Sang paused and said, “…Didn’t you say you were going to work hard to be second best?”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao suddenly opened its eyes and sat up with a thump.

Oh right! It hadn’t become second best yet!

Qiao Sang: “…”

“Ice Ke.” At this moment, Ice Ke, who had been closing its eyes, suddenly opened them and walked towards the toilet.

“Whoosh whoosh.” The sound of water flowing from the faucet immediately followed.

Soon, Qiao Sang saw Ice Ke turn into water and flow out of the toilet towards the gap under the door.

“Where are you going?” Qiao Sang was full of doubt.

“Ice Ke.” Ice Ke, in its water form, called out.

It was going to train to be the boss.

Qiao Sang: “…”

Xiao Xunbao: “…”

“Ya…”

Xiao Xunbao, who had long since fallen asleep, called out with its eyes closed and drooling, not knowing what it was dreaming about.

…

Days passed, and the Imperial Capital finally welcomed the day of the National Campus Pet Beast League National Competition.

Mo Ting Hotel.

“Are you ready!” Qiao Sang asked with soaring morale.

“Ya!”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

“Ice Ke!”

Xiao Xunbao and the others all called out with serious expressions.

Qiao Sang showed a satisfied smile. With a wave of her hand, Xiao Xunbao jumped to the side, Xiao Xunbao floated to the side, and only Ice Ke remained still, quietly put away into the yu beast codex.

“Knock knock!”

“Qiao Sang, we should leave now.” Along with the knocking, Sun Boyi’s voice sounded from outside the door.

“Got it!” Qiao Sang took a deep breath, picked up Xiao Xunbao, and opened the door.

National Competition! I’m coming!

P.S.: This chapter has a lot of words, but let’s just count it as one for now. I’ll make up for what I owe tomorrow!

Recommend a female-oriented Yu Beast novel, “Frail Girl Controls Alien Beast Clones”!

The Li family of Bright Moon City is a well-known prominent family in the area. Not only could the head of the Li family produce many children, but his children were also all very promising.

The eldest son was exceptionally talented and became famous at a young age. The eldest daughter was even chosen by a powerful being and taken as a disciple from a young age.

With their elder brother and sister as role models, the younger siblings also worked hard, each a small genius, except for Chang Yue, who remained obscure.

Chang Yue was born frail and had poor health since childhood, even coughing three times after walking just two steps. Therefore, she had almost no presence in the family, and no one in the entire Li family held any expectations for her.

However, only Chang Yue herself knew…

In the sea area tens of thousands of miles away from Bright Moon City, a monstrous giant python was freely stretching its mountain-like body at the bottom of the sea.
