Chapter 985: Anti-Kefeifei (two in one)

Then, she remembered Ao Bao Sparrow King’s flirtatious glance at Steel Treasure and thought to herself, “It’s early in the morning, and it looks like it’s in a good mood, so it probably didn’t stay up late last night.”

Qiao Sang thought as she got up and carried Ya Bao to the backstage.

She was in the third group, and if the first two battles weren’t too drawn out, it should be her turn in the morning.

…

Backstage.

Qiao Sang glanced around and noticed that Qi Fuqing was not there.

She found a random seat and prepared to introduce the opponent’s Pet Beasts to Ya Bao and the others.

Just then, her phone vibrated.

Qiao Sang took it out and saw a message from Rong Yuhua:

“I have Qi Fuqing’s information here, do you want it?”

This guy booked all the training grounds, yet he still acted so friendly… Qiao Sang internally complained, then sent a message back:

“Is it free?”

Teacher Mi Jiala’s purpose in having her participate in this Regional Competition was only for training, unlike when she participated in the National Campus Pet Beast League, where teachers would specifically search for, analyze, and explain information about various contestants.

Currently, all her information came from the internet, and she couldn’t rule out a repeat of the Chen Tianqin situation.

If the other party was giving it away for free, then there was no reason not to take it.

Rong Yuhua replied instantly:

“Of course!”

It was no exaggeration to say that Qiao Sang was now his only connection in the Guo Yu Bureau.

Although his family had money and background, to the prodigies in the Guo Yu Bureau, these things wouldn’t make them look at him twice.

If he could maintain a good relationship with Qiao Sang, then when she trained at the Guo Yu Bureau, he could visit her, and once those coaches became familiar with him, he could then show off his strength.

Perhaps a coach might discover his outstanding talent and allow him to enter the Guo Yu Bureau.

Even if this chance was only one percent, he wasn’t willing to give up.

The more Rong Yuhua thought about it, the more he felt this was his closest opportunity to the Guo Yu Bureau, wishing his friendship with Qiao Sang could directly ascend to sworn brotherhood.

“Then tell me,” Qiao Sang replied.

Rong Yuhua quickly sent the prepared document.

Qiao Sang clicked to receive it.

Just as she was about to open it, Rong Yuhua sent another message:

“When will you officially report for training at the Guo Yu Bureau? Is it after the Regional Competition ends?”

Since the other party had just given her information for free, Qiao Sang was much more patient with him and typed a reply:

“Maybe twenty years later.”

Rong Yuhua: “???”

Qiao Sang ignored him and opened the file.

She quickly scanned it and found that it contained Qi Fuqing’s battle records from various competitions, as well as the skills and proficiency of the Pet Beasts she had contracted, and even the weaknesses of each Pet Beast.

It was so detailed; the proficiency of each move was found, and even the weaknesses were included… Qiao Sang became slightly serious and couldn’t help but re-examine the information.

It was no wonder that Professional Beast Tamers participating in those large-scale competitions had a team behind them specifically responsible for collecting information and confusing intelligence.

With this level of information, if the strength was comparable, the chances of winning could probably increase by about 10%.

Of course, the premise was that the opponent didn’t have her information.

Qiao Sang turned off her phone and continued introducing the opponent’s Pet Beasts to Ya Bao and the others.

…

Time flowed by.

The first two group matches ended with intense battles, resulting in scores of 2:3 and 3:1 respectively.

Since the latter group finished faster, the time wasn’t overly delayed.

Soon, the pitted arena sank, replaced by a brand new one.

The Regional Competition had moved on to the third group.

“The next contestants both have extremely high popularity!”

On the commentary stand, Tian Yiwan introduced: “One is contestant Qi Fuqing, who has participated in multiple Regional Competitions in various regions, achieving good results, and was just selected as one of the ‘Top Ten Most Charming Yu Beast Masters of the Central Empty Region’ this year!”

Tang Xueran chimed in:

“The other is the youngest and most talented Yu Beast Master in the world—I’d even hesitate to add ‘one of the,’ because I believe there is no ‘one of.’ Although this is her first time participating in a Regional Competition, it doesn’t affect her status as the strongest dark horse of this Regional Competition.

She has overcome all obstacles and was even selected into the Guo Yu Bureau two days ago.

She is contestant Qiao Sang!”

“Let’s welcome them to the arena with our warmest applause!”

The entire venue erupted in deafening cheers, seemingly echoing through the skies.

Regional Competitions are held every year, but very few are selected into the Guo Yu Bureau.

In recent years, only Chen Tianqin was rumored to have entered the Guo Yu Bureau.

The time of the rumor was not during the Regional Competition, and after all, it was just a rumor, never officially confirmed by the Guo Yu Bureau.

Qiao Sang was different; Coach Tao Yun Kai publicly stated that Qiao Sang had officially joined the Guo Yu Bureau, which was as good as official confirmation.

They witnessed a contestant enter the Guo Yu Bureau with their own eyes.

This was Qiao Sang’s first appearance after being confirmed to have entered the Guo Yu Bureau.

For a time, almost the entire venue was cheering for her, even overshadowing Qi Fuqing, who had just been named one of the Top Ten Most Charming Yu Beast Masters of the Year.

Amidst the cheers, two Flying-type Pet Beasts rose from the ground.

Qi Fuqing smiled and waved to the audience, seemingly unaffected by the fact that the entire venue was cheering for her opponent.

Qiao Sang was stunned when she heard the cheers all around her.

Honestly, since the Regional Competition began, this was the highest her cheers had ever been.

Even in the match where Qing Bao was sent out, and everyone was so excited after winning, they mostly cheered for Qingyin Fairy, but today, they were all shouting her name.

She couldn’t help but be deeply moved by the atmosphere and waved towards the audience.

The cheers from the audience immediately rose to another level.

The light and shadow of “10” appeared in the center of the arena.

Everyone tacitly quieted down.

The light and shadow changed continuously with a mechanical sound:

“9, 8, 7… 3, 2, 1.”

Qiao Sang and Qi Fuqing simultaneously formed hand seals.

Two dazzling red star arrays lit up on the field.

Soon, two Pet Beasts with vastly different sizes appeared within the star arrays.

At the same time, the temperature on the field plummeted, and large snowflakes drifted down.

Reversal Ke Feifei, a Superpower System King-level Pet, doesn’t like to initiate attacks, is very patient, and prefers to endure attacks before counterattacking.

Its most proficient skills are Double Payback and Mirror Reflection, which are skills that can return double the damage received to the opponent.

Its ability is Telepathy, which allows it to predict the opponent’s attacks in advance and dodge them.

Its weakness is its tail; when its tail is attacked, it will become unbearable and will try everything to initiate an attack… Qiao Sang looked at the Pet Beast about two meters tall, mostly cream-colored, with two black eyes, a short black serrated tail, and a mouth so red it looked like it had red lipstick on.

Information related to it flashed through her mind.

Then, she remembered one of the pieces of information from Rong Yuhua’s data:

Reversal Ke Feifei’s weakness is no longer a weakness; Qi Fuqing has trained it to the point where it can endure attacks on its tail.

If it is attacked on its tail and shows anger, launching a frantic attack, then it is faking it, so be careful.

As her thoughts flickered, the distant Reversal Ke Feifei had already put its hands together.

Instantly, a light blue glow appeared around its body.

Soon, the light blue glow flashed once and then disappeared.

Snowflakes fell on Reversal Ke Feifei’s body, leaving no trace.

Mysterious Guardian, a high-level Normal-type skill; the Pet Beast using this skill is protected by a mysterious power for a certain period, thus not falling into abnormal status… To use this move right away, it seems she has studied her previous Regional Competition… Qiao Sang saw the scene before her and couldn’t help but sigh that none of the opponents who made it to the Top 16 were simple.

Lu Bao would cause Snowfall upon appearing, so it was most suitable to secretly use Ice Flower Seal.

Lu Bao used to need to raise its head and call out to use Ice Flower Seal, but now it has trained to a different method of use, only needing to emit cold air outwards from its body.

This cold air was not obvious under the heavy snow, as was the case when dealing with Sweet Poison King last time.

If it were some Pet Beasts with no defensive capabilities, or whose energy and power were lower than Lu Bao’s, and who were completely unprepared, they would be directly defeated by this move.

The opponent clearly guessed that Lu Bao would use Ice Flower Seal at the beginning.

Qiao Sang stared at Reversal Ke Feifei without giving any command for a moment.

Reversal Ke Feifei stared at Lu Bao, making no move, just waiting for it to attack first.

Lu Bao, however, did not attack immediately as it had in previous matches.

The situation became a stalemate for a while.

The audience couldn’t help but start discussing:

“What’s going on? Why haven’t they started fighting yet?”

“Qi Fuqing’s Reversal Ke Feifei’s fighting style is like this; it basically waits for the opponent to attack, then returns the attack with double the power.”

“If Ice Emperor Ram doesn’t attack, are they just not going to fight?”

“Did you forget the Regional Competition rules? Neither side can stay in place without any movement for 30 seconds, or they will be warned.

One of them will definitely make the first move.”

“I think Ice Emperor Ram just needs to use the move it used against Sweet Poison King.

First, an Ice Heaven Domain, then a super-sized Mega Ice Cone.

I don’t believe Reversal Ke Feifei can endure a Mega Ice Cone as big as a mountain.”

“Qiao Sang is probably waiting for an opportunity.

Ice Emperor Ram’s combination skill should be quite energy-consuming.”

Ever since Qiao Sang defeated Chen Tianqin in the last round and was announced to have officially joined the Guo Yu Bureau, everyone’s confidence in her had soared.

On the field.

Why isn’t Ice Emperor Ram moving… Qi Fuqing pondered for a moment, then immediately prepared to change her battle strategy and said:

“Attack.”

Reversal Ke Feifei’s eyes glowed blue.

Immediately, two silver rays shot out from its eyes, blasting towards Lu Bao’s location.

Reversal Ke Feifei has extremely strong endurance and is uniquely gifted at performing defensive and reflective skills, but its talent for offensive skills is not high; even if it learns them, it is difficult to improve its proficiency… Qiao Sang’s expression remained calm.

Lu Bao stood still, and a thick layer of Ice Armor instantly condensed on its body.

“Bang!”

The silver light beam struck Lu Bao’s body.

A few shards of ice fell, but no cracks appeared in the Ice Armor, and Lu Bao was completely unharmed.

Reversal Ke Feifei did not attack again.

Lu Bao also made no move.

It didn’t counterattack… Qi Fuqing frowned slightly.

Ice Emperor Ram has Healing Light, Ice Armor, Ice Shard Guard, and Aurora Veil.

Whether it’s close combat or long-range attacks, it has defensive measures.

With Reversal Ke Feifei’s attack power, it’s impossible to break through Ice Emperor Ram’s defense.

Even if it uses its strongest attack and successfully breaks through the defense, the opponent also has Healing Light, which can quickly heal.

The best method is to wait for Ice Emperor Ram to unleash a powerful attack, then endure it, and instantly reflect double the damage.

Only then is it possible to instantly defeat Ice Emperor Ram.

The opponent seems to be aware of this, and didn’t directly use Ice Heaven Domain plus a powerful ultimate attack as before…

At the same time.

Perfected Mysterious Guardian, duration 30 seconds, now it’s 29 seconds… Qiao Sang said:

“Domain.”

She was confident that under the Ice Heaven Domain, Mysterious Guardian wouldn’t be able to resist, but the opponent could also perform other reflective skills while under Mysterious Guardian.

To be cautious, it was better to wait for the Mysterious Guardian effect to pass before attacking.

“Ice Emperor.”

Lu Bao had long been ready for this moment; it stomped its front left paw down, and visible cold air emanated from its entire body.

“Guard!” Qi Fuqing shouted when she saw this.

In fact, there was no need for her Yu Beast Master to issue a command; Reversal Ke Feifei had already predicted the opponent’s movement through telepathy.

It put its hands together 0.1 seconds before its Yu Beast Master issued the command.

However, the cold air covered it almost instantly.

As soon as the blue light appeared on Reversal Ke Feifei, it froze in place, maintaining that posture.

The arena instantly became a world of ice.

The audience erupted in noise.

“Ice Emperor Ram finally unleashed Ice Heaven Domain! I’ve been waiting for this move for a long time!”

“In its frozen state, Reversal Ke Feifei probably can’t endure and reflect well, right?”

“It’s hard to say.

Reversal Ke Feifei’s reflective skills are inherently about absorbing energy internally and releasing it outwards, so it doesn’t need to open its mouth or stomp its feet like other Pet Beasts to use skills.

The Ice Heaven Domain probably only freezes its body, not the energy within it.”

Amidst the crowd’s discussions, a biting cold wind howled, and a vast expanse of white ice and snow suddenly swirled up, surging across the arena like a disaster, as if to engulf the entire field in endless white light.

Blizzard… Qi Fuqing unconsciously became nervous.

Even though she had great confidence in Reversal Ke Feifei’s endurance, this was indeed the first time she had encountered Ice Heaven Domain, and she didn’t know if Reversal Ke Feifei could still successfully reflect under Ice Heaven Domain.

The endless white snow instantly devoured Reversal Ke Feifei.

The Blizzard impacted the ice shell, shattering it.

Reversal Ke Feifei disappeared into the white expanse.

Suddenly, a blue light abruptly shone amidst the snowy white.

The Blizzard paused, as if blocked by some invisible force.

On the ground, Reversal Ke Feifei glowed blue all over, with a translucent mirror condensed in front of its body, as it struggled to stand up from the snow.

Qi Fuqing’s face lit up with joy when she saw this.

Indeed, skills released by internal energy can be successfully used even if no part of the body can move… And it looks like the Mysterious Guardian was also successfully used just now, which wouldn’t have been possible with Qi Fuqing’s command speed.

It seems Reversal Ke Feifei used telepathy… Qiao Sang analyzed.

Just as she was thinking, the overwhelming Blizzard suddenly changed direction, engulfing Lu Bao’s location with an even more unstoppable force than before.

Lu Bao stood proudly still.

The Blizzard instantly swallowed it.

“Reversal Ke Feifei successfully performed Mirror Reflection, reflecting the attack back!”

On the commentary stand, Tian Yiwan excitedly said: “The Blizzard has turned and swallowed Ice Emperor Ram!”

As soon as his voice fell, Lu Bao, completely unharmed, appeared before everyone from beneath the Blizzard.

The entire venue was in an uproar.

How could this be? This was a doubled-attack Blizzard… Qi Fuqing’s heart was filled with confusion.

Frozen Body, when it Snowfall, it will slowly recover its status.

A B-rank Frozen Body, it’s the same under Blizzard… Otherwise, why do you think I didn’t use Mega Ice Cone like before, but instead used Blizzard?

It was to test whether Reversal Ke Feifei could successfully use reflective skills while frozen… Qiao Sang understood the astonishment and bewilderment in her opponent’s eyes, her expression calm.

Everyone, go to bed early tonight!
