Yantian Star, Tan Country.
Saye International Stadium.
The audience was filled with people and pets.
Various pets were performing on the field, and some pets were moving around among the audience seats, interacting with the audience.
Area A, row three.
Several butterfly pets fluttered over, scattering candies as they danced.
One of the candies fell and was grabbed by two claws of different colors almost at the same time.
Xiao Xunbao and Qingbao held candies in their hands and neither of them gave in.
"Xunxun!"
I caught it first!
“Qingqing!”
It’s obviously me!
Xiao Xunbao and Qingbao looked at each other, and there was even a faint spark of electricity when their eyes met.
Just when the battle seemed to be about to break out, Lubao stretched out one of his paws from his backpack, revealing a candy, and shouted:
"Ice Saint."
Stop arguing, I have another one here.
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao immediately loosened his claws, took the candy from Lubao's claws, and his eyes curved.
Qingbao snorted coldly at Xiaoxunbao, showing an expression of "That's good enough", opened the candy wrapper and put the candy into his mouth.
The sweet taste spreads in the mouth.
"Qingqing~"
Qingbao's eyes curved subconsciously.
Really, eating a candy almost caused a quarrel... Qiao Sang showed a funny expression, then she thought of Lu Bao who gave the candy away, and looked in the direction where the butterfly pets flew away.
The next second, a gust of wind appeared out of nowhere and blew a piece of candy dropped by the butterfly pets over.
Qiao Sang raised his hand to take the candy and put it in his backpack.
Lubao's pair of ears made of ice suddenly stood up and appeared outside the backpack, but soon, the ears slowly retracted.
At the same time, in Area A, row five.
The blond, blue-eyed man with a short beard ignored the wonderful performance on the field and asked as he watched this scene:
"She is Qiao Sang?"
Xia Huo, who was sitting next to him, said "hmm" lightly.
"An 18-year-old A-rank beastmaster, this talent is the best in the galaxy," Jerome sighed. "Has she been blessed by some divine beast?"
Xia Huo glanced at him and said, "Have the divine beast bless me with an 18-year-old A-level beastmaster."
"Isn't this just speculation?" Jerome continued with emotion. "I originally thought it was some old monster who found the Wheel of Dreams and reincarnated, but now it seems that this is indeed a child. Her pet can also see that she has a child's nature."
"It's hard to believe that there are such monsters in the world."
Wheel Dream, a legendary supernatural beast, is said to have the ability to allow creatures to retain memories and enter reincarnation.
After saying this, he thought of something and said, "Is that cute-looking pet called Qingfeng Yunren? Although it's only a king-level pet, it seems to be a legendary pet."
"How did she contract a legendary pet?"
"But since she's so talented, it seems normal for her to contract a legendary pet. If I were a pet, I'd be willing to contract with her."
"Did you see that incredibly black pet? I looked it up, and it seems to be called the Dark Ring Monarch, an imperial-level pet. But I don't see it wearing a shrinking bracelet, so its size is too small for an imperial-level pet..."
Xia Huo listened to the other party chattering, took a deep breath, and endured it.
Jerome, unaware of his own chatter, continued:
"Do you think there's something special about that Xianxian Pu? It's so ordinary, yet a monster like Qiao Sang can hold it. No matter how I think about it, it seems abnormal. She can't possibly be planning to train this Xianxian Pu as her seventh pet..."
An 18-year-old A-class professional beastmaster, and a student of the Imperial Class, no one doubted that she would not become an S-class beastmaster in the future.
Upon hearing this, Xia Huo couldn't help but look in the direction of Xianxianpu.
Come to think of it, the few times she met Qiao Sang before, she seemed to have seen him holding Xianxianpu in his arms.
She remembered that Xianxianpu's evolution limit was only at the King level...
Just as he was thinking about it, Jerome said, "Xianxianpu's upper limit is only the King level. If she's in her right mind, she wouldn't choose a contract. Come to think of it, you've dealt with her before. What do you think? Is she smart?"
As he spoke, he turned to look at Xia Huo, waiting for her answer.
Xia Huo: “…”
"Why would I sit with you?" Xia Huo said in a cold and ruthless tone.
Jerome was stunned for a moment, then sighed, "Xia Huo, your patience is really running out. I remember you used to be very fond of me. When you first joined the Yan class, you even possessed someone else's body to peek at me. Why are we sitting together? Isn't this the official arrangement? Why do you ask such a stupid question? I remember you used to..."
Xia Huo stood up suddenly.
"What's wrong with you?" Jerome asked.
Xia Huo didn't answer and left directly, as if he didn't want to stay any longer.
Jerokea withdrew his gaze and looked at the figure in front of him who was talking to his pet. His expression gradually became calm.
18 years old, A-level beastmaster, four royal-level pets...
…
The VIP box is a hundred meters above the last row of the audience.
Michaela sat on the sofa, looking at the scene outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
"I didn't expect your student could become an A-level professional beastmaster so quickly." A blonde lady in a black dress leaned lazily on the sofa, drinking champagne and sighing.
"It's a pity that I already had Jules to teach at that time, otherwise Qiao San might have been my student."
Mikaela said calmly, "I remember someone saying that although Qiao Sang is talented, the upper limit of his contracted pet is not high, so it will be difficult for him to enter the Star Cup in the future."
Margot almost choked on her wine. "Who, who said that? I didn't say that."
Mikaela took out her phone and said, "I'll check the chat history now."
Margot stopped her, "Alright, I've said that, alright. I didn't know she was so talented. Not only did she become an A-rank professional beastmaster so quickly, but she was also able to raise a completely new pet to the imperial rank so quickly."
Speaking of this, Mikaela also sighed: "I didn't expect this when I first started teaching her."
Margot felt a little sour when she heard this.
As a mentor, who doesn't want to train a student who can become world-famous in the future? With Michaela's teaching level, it's not impossible to train one, but in the current situation, it is obvious that she doesn't need to train at all, and she just picked up such a student for free.
The 18-year-old A-level professional beastmaster does not have to wait until the day of participating in the StarCraft Cup. As long as he shows up at this Master Challenge and is introduced by the host, he can directly achieve world-famous effects.
Margot laughed dryly and changed the subject:
"I don't know if Joe San and Jules will meet in this game."
"There will be a chance." Michaela said.
"Who do you think will be the first competitor to compete?" Margot asked.
Mikaela thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, they should be from Yantian Star."
During the conversation, the performance came to an end.
The lights shone down, and the female host, Nephthys, who was wearing a blue dress, took the microphone and said loudly:
"A cry echoes across the desert, gathering here from across the galaxy! Tonight, as the dome of the Saye International Arena lights up the starry sky, we will witness the start of the 3022nd Masters Challenge!"
Aurore took the microphone and said, "Next, we will start the first grouping of this Masters Challenge!"
"Guigui!"
The beautiful pet with a rose ornament on its head took off its rose ornament and threw it upwards with force.
The rose decoration instantly turned into bright red petals that rolled upwards.
The gazes of everyone and their pets in the audience, as well as the cameras of various media outlets, were all directed upwards in the direction where the rose ornament was thrown.
The bright red petals were blown into the sky by the wind.
When everyone and their pets looked up, the stars in the night sky flickered, and then countless stars suddenly fell down, gathering into a magnificent picture.
Seeing this, everyone and their pets showed astonishment, and many of them took out their phones to take pictures.
On the screen of the mobile phone, a giant virtual screen appeared among countless stars.
Then, the starlight and lights disappeared at the same time, leaving only a giant virtual screen floating in the air.
On the virtual screen, photos of all the contestants appeared.
All the people and their pets looked on.
Are we going to start grouping... Qiao Sang looked at the giant virtual screen on the field and subconsciously became nervous.
I don't know who my first opponent will be... I hope it won't be Liefeld or Serana...
"Xunxun..."
“Qingqing…”
"Xia, Qingqing..."
Xiao Xunbao, Qingbao and Xia Lala also became nervous.
"Ya Ya!"
Yabao was extremely excited.
Lubao's head popped out of the backpack.
Gangbao and Tingbao were watching the giant virtual screen on the field through shared vision in the Beast Taming Codex.
Soon, the photos on the giant virtual screen began to intertwine rapidly.
As the photos intersect, the camera turns to the front rows of the audience where the contestants are gathered.
When the camera stays on a delicate face for a second.
In the villa of Hanggang City, in the Blue Star Dragon Country.
Ye Xiangting's eyes lit up instantly, she stood up, fully awake, and said excitedly:
"Qiao San! I saw Qiao San!"
"Tong slide!"
"Xinxin!"
Tong Huaxiao and Xin Yanweng also woke up at the same time and looked at the TV.
"Guan Guan?"
Guan Zhishi looked at the TV with a puzzled expression.
Ye Xiangting sat down again and coughed: "The shot has passed."
"Tongskating..."
"Xinxin..."
Tong Huaxiao and Xinyan Weng lay down again.
On TV, the camera has stopped on the giant virtual screen.
Hundreds of photos were intertwined at the same time, and soon they were fixed in groups of two.
Ye Xiangting scanned the screen quickly, and after three seconds, she finally saw the name she wanted to see:
【Jerome VS Joe Sanchez】
…
Yantian Star, Tan Country.
Saye International Stadium.
Everyone in the audience was excitedly discussing the players they supported and their opponents.
Area A, row three.
【Jerome VS Joe Sanchez】
Jerome... Qiao Sang looked at the three words that appeared on the giant virtual screen, pondered for a second, and quickly searched for relevant information in his mind.
Jerome, a student of Yantian University's Yan Class, is 61 years old this year. He owns four royal-level pets. He has participated in national competitions when he was in D-level, C-level, B-level, and A-level, and won first place in all of them.
He even finished seventh in a StarCraft competition a year ago.
Are we going to meet someone from the Flame Class in the first battle... Qiao Sang felt a pang in his heart when he thought of the opponent's information.
This opponent might be tough to beat... I need to go back and study his previous fight videos in detail... If I lose in the first round, how will I ever be able to build a good relationship with the hopeful champions?
…
In the VIP box.
Mikaela frowned and murmured:
"Jerome..."
"Isn't that the kid from the Flame Class?" Margot sighed. "Qiao Sang's luck is so bad. He ran into someone from the Flame Class right after arriving. In this respect, he's a bit like you."
Mikaela glanced at her and said, "She's not like me when it comes to luck."
"True." Margot took a sip of champagne and agreed, "If I were really unlucky, I wouldn't have become an A-rank professional beastmaster so quickly."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the other list and said with a smile, "It seems my students will have no problem passing the preliminaries."
Mikaela said calmly, "My students have no problems either."
Margot smiled and said, "Maybe it will be fine in a few years, but she just became an A-level professional beastmaster now."
Michaela said nothing, picked up her bag, stood up, and prepared to go out.
"Leaving now?" Margot was stunned.
Michaela hummed, "I'll go back and collect some more information about Jerome."
Margot said with a smile:
"Do you really think that Joe San still has a chance to beat Jerome?"
"Of course there's no chance. I know her better than you do." Michaela said calmly, "And not only does she want to beat Jerome, I also want her to be in the top three."
Margot looked stunned. "You expect her to get in the top three? Are you kidding?"
"Do I look like someone who would joke?" Mikaela said calmly, "And the dean also said that if Qiao Sang gets into the top three in this competition, she will be rewarded."
Margot frowned and said:
"This is clearly just a casual remark. How is this any different than some countries declaring a month-long national holiday after their players won the StarCraft Cup?"
"I'm leaving first." Michaela waved his hand and walked out.
This guy, he doesn't really think his students can get into the top three... He just became an A-level professional beastmaster and he has to fight against Jerome from the Flame Class. It's obvious that he can't even pass the preliminaries... Margot shook the champagne in her hand and looked at the giant virtual screen outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
On the field, Nephthys held the microphone and said loudly:
"The list of first-round matchups has appeared!"
Aurore said in agreement:
"Tonight! We are standing here not to wait for the opening ceremony to end! But to welcome the battle that is about to begin!"
Nephthys then said:
"That's right! We're going to have our first battle tonight! The battle is tonight! We're ready! Are you guys ready?"
"Ready!!!" the audience said almost in unison.
"Let's see who will be the first player to compete in the Master Challenge Cup!" Aurore shouted passionately.
"Guigui!"
The humanoid flower pet raised its paw, and a bright rose instantly condensed.
It threw it upward with force, and the rose instantly turned into countless bright red petals that fell in front of the virtual screen.
The contestant photos on the virtual screen disappeared one by one, leaving only one group enlarged on the virtual screen.
"It seems that the players who will compete in the first match of the 3022nd Master Challenge Cup have already come out! They are Jerome and Joe Sang!" Aurore said loudly.
On the virtual screen, a photo of a man with blond hair, blue eyes, and a short beard and a photo of a girl with black hair, black eyes, a ponytail, and delicate features were enlarged.
The whole audience erupted in deafening cheers.
How come Joe Sanchez is the first in the round... In the VIP box, Margot looked at the photo that appeared on the virtual screen and was stunned for a moment.
At this moment, the door was opened with a bang.
Michaela walked in. (End of this chapter)
