A beam of white light swooped down from the sky and landed precisely between the two hosts. It raised its arms and shouted loudly. Its kingly aura and majestic posture immediately drew cheers from the audience.
In the contestant area, Yabao showed an excited expression and shouted:
"Ya Ya!"
Dragon King! It's Dragon King!
"Xunxun..."
Xiao Xunbao was stunned at first, then showed an excited expression, but soon turned to envy.
It also wants to be a guest...
“Qingqing…”
Qingbao appeared and barked, saying that it was no wonder that Dragon King had been so flirtatious lately, going to the pet beauty salon every day. It turned out that he was a guest...
When Lu Bao heard the voice, he popped his head out of his backpack, took a look at the Dragon King on the field, and found that it was the Dragon King he knew. He showed a surprised expression and put his head back into his backpack.
Qiao Sang was confused and turned to look at Teacher Mikaela beside him and asked:
"Why is the Dragon King a guest now?"
The commentary lineup for the Masters Challenge basically consists of two fixed hosts and one guest. The guests change every day, and most of them are currently well-known pets.
She was not questioning whether King Long had the ability to be a guest, but according to her understanding, King Long had been managing the tribe for almost a hundred years and had rarely appeared in public. He was not like other guests who had a large number of fans.
Mikaela looked at the Dragon King on the field and smiled, "It applied for it itself from the organizers."
"The organizer agreed just by applying?" Qiao Sang found it hard to believe.
This is at least an interstellar-level competition. Is it so easy to be a guest?
"After all, the Dragon King has participated in the Interstellar Cup before. How could they not agree to have a pet that has participated in the Interstellar Cup as a guest?" said Mikaela.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, and once again felt the status and value of the StarCraft Cup.
The Dragon King participated in the StarCraft Cup a hundred years ago, and at that time, it was only a single round, so there weren't many scenes left. Yet, he was able to defeat many well-known pets today and become the first guest of the elimination round...
As the thought flashed through her mind, she suddenly felt a gaze directed at her. She turned around and saw a woman with long black hair, golden earrings, and bright and elegant features.
Serana, one of the only two players in the Master Challenge who owns five royal-level pets... Qiao Sang recognized him and immediately smiled brightly.
The other party is definitely a strong candidate for the championship, so we have to establish a good relationship with him.
Serana was stunned for a moment, then smiled back.
It seems very friendly... Qiao Sang felt something in his heart when he saw this.
To be honest, if there wasn't an empty seat next to her, she would have wanted to sit there directly...
Qiao Sang retracted his gaze and continued the previous topic: "No wonder King Long seems to be in such a good mood recently..."
After saying this, she thought of something and asked:
"Why did it suddenly want to be a guest?"
Mikaela was silent for a moment, then spoke with a nostalgic tone, "Actually, it used to enjoy being a guest commentator at tournaments, but after losing the StarCraft Cup, it stopped being so popular and focused on managing its race."
She laughed when she said this: "Now it's just returned to its original state."
So that's how it is... Qiao Sang looked at the majestic and high-spirited Dragon King on the field, and for a moment he found it difficult to connect him with the image of picking his nose.
"After eight days of competition, 153 contestants have emerged from hundreds of competitors to advance to this round!" Nephthys announced loudly, "Now, let's look at the big screen!"
As she finished speaking, a giant virtual screen appeared on the field, and photos of the qualified contestants appeared on the screen.
Qiao Sang scanned quickly and soon saw his own photo in the middle.
"According to the rules of this round, one player will be given a bye and advance directly to the next round!" Aurore continued.
Upon hearing this, the audience suddenly became agitated, and everyone was discussing who would be the one to receive a bye.
In the player area, the expressions of the players remained unchanged, neither excited nor expectant. Everyone knew that only the high-seeded players would have byes, and generally such seeded players were strong candidates for the championship.
The operation was quickly carried out on the field, and a monkey-like pet with a mostly white body floated in front of the giant screen.
It was suspended with its eyes closed and legs crossed.
At the same time, the photos on the giant virtual screen behind him flashed blue light.
Lichimons, a psychic pet, is said to be able to sense the combined abilities of a group of candidates and predict who has the greatest chance of winning... Qiao Sang looked at the pets on the field, and relevant information emerged in his mind. He thought that it seemed that the player who would be on a bye this time would be either Lefed or Serana.
As expected, Lichmens opened his eyes and spread out his paws, and a photo formed by light and shadow appeared on his paws.
The person in the photo has brown hair, blue eyes, three-dimensional features and an indifferent expression. It is Lefed.
"The results are in!" Nephthys shouted into the microphone, "The player with a bye in this round of eliminations is Lyfedd Hope!"
The whole audience cheered and everyone was very satisfied with the result.
Even the fans who came specifically to watch Lefed's game did not feel dissatisfied, they just felt that this was what their idol deserved.
After all, being selected for a bye among a hundred or so A-level professional beastmasters is also a recognition of one's strength.
As the host finished speaking, the camera turned to Lefed in the first row of the contestant area.
He had a calm expression and didn't react at all to this.
After the camera left, Lefed stood up and turned to leave the contestant area.
Compared to Serana, this Lefed is obviously much more difficult to approach... Qiao Sang sat in the middle of the player area, watching Lefed's movements and sighed in his heart.
To be honest, although Serana and Lefed both have five royal-level pets and are strong candidates for the championship, Lefed is the one with the highest chance of winning the championship.
According to the rules of this competition, he will probably have to have a few byes, and then he will be fired. How can he maintain a good relationship with them?
"Ya Ya!"
Yabao shouted excitedly.
Joe Sang looked at the court.
After the byes come out, the matches for this round of players have already been carried out on the field.
On the giant virtual screen, all the photos are interlaced rapidly.
"Ya Ya!"
Yabao looked at the virtual screen and shouted with an expectant expression, "Give me a strong opponent!"
Qiao Sang: "..."
"Don't say that. Any player is worthy of our battle." Qiao Sang said seriously, thinking that he must not face a particularly strong opponent. What if he met Serana and lost in this round? Although the dean had promised to find her a pet with the upper limit of the Venerable level, and there would be 200,000 points for the top three, the most important thing was that he had not had time to establish a good relationship with Serana and Leifed.
"Steel Power."
Gangbao suddenly shouted in his mind, saying that it was a good thing that Yabao did not have the power of bond with you.
Qiao Sang: "..."
"Ya Ya!"
Yabao showed an expression of "that makes sense" and nodded. He stopped shouting excitedly and instead looked at the giant screen seriously, waiting for his next opponent.
"Who will be in the same group with whom, and what kind of game will they bring us?" Aurore said.
The photos on the giant virtual screen quickly intertwined, and soon froze.
Qiao Sang quickly scanned and soon saw his opponent:
【Qiao Sang VS Li Muxin】
…
at the same time.
Blue Star, Dragon Country.
Hangzhou City, villa.
A group of people stayed in the living room, watching TV.
The older ones sat on the sofa, while the younger ones sat cross-legged on the floor.
If Qiao Sang were here, he would find that all his relatives, whom he might not see once a year, were gathered here.
"Li Muxin!" exclaimed a man who looked to be in his fifties.
"Brother, do you know this?" Ye Xiangting asked.
"I've seen his matches." My uncle said solemnly, "He's from the Yantian Xinglong Country. He's very capable. He became an A-level professional beastmaster very early on and has won many championships."
"The player named Jie who Qiao Sang defeated last time also won many championships." Third Aunt said, "But he still lost to Qiao Sang."
The uncle stopped talking. Even though he had seen Li Muxin's matches and knew his strength, in this situation, even if he was not optimistic, he still supported his family.
However, at this moment, Ye Jingwen looked at the information she had just searched on her phone and said, "Li Muxin is even better than that contestant named Jerome. That Jerome is only 61 years old, and he is 69 years old."
Ye Ranran rolled her eyes at her: "This competition is not about age. If you say so, Qiao Sang is only 18 years old, and he still beat Jerome."
"It's not just age." Ye Jingwen looked at the information on her phone, flipping through it and sighing, "Li Muxin officially became a beastmaster at the age of 9. I've already flipped through two pages and haven't finished reading all the competition awards he's won since he was a child. Qiao Sang, this match is going to be difficult."
Third aunt slapped her on the head.
"Mom, why did you hit me!" Ye Jingwen covered her head.
"You still don't think highly of Qiao Sang. Look at Qiao Sang, and then look at you. Others are already A-level professional beastmasters at the age of 18, but you asked for leave from school and even lied to the teacher that you were in the hospital!" The third aunt hit her head again.
"Stop fighting." Ye Jingwen quickly moved aside and said aggrievedly, "How can I compare with Qiao Sang? She's not even a human being."
Just as her third aunt was about to scold her again, Ye Xiangting coughed and helped to change the subject: "Third sister-in-law, how are my parents doing recently?"
"Very well," said the third aunt. "After learning that Qiao Sang became an A-rank beastmaster, his appetite has improved. He eats two bowls of rice for every meal. If your brother hadn't persuaded me last time, I would have stayed up late to watch Qiao Sang's competition."
"As long as you're healthy," Ye Xiangting said, then looked at the TV and said, "I don't know what time Qiao Sang's match will be this time, but I hope it doesn't happen in the middle of the night again..."
A group of people watched TV together, waiting for the game time to come out.
…
Yan Tianxing.
Saye International Stadium.
Li Muxin, 69 years old, is an A-level professional beastmaster from Yantian Xinglong Country. He is a leading figure among the new generation of A-level professional beastmasters in Yantian Xinglong Country. His career has not been smooth sailing. He has failed in major competitions, suffered pressure from public opinion, and fell into a slump. However, he quickly adjusted himself and achieved a victory of greater honor. The media once commented that after the tempering and baptism of the competition, Li Muxin already has the potential to participate in the Star Cup... Qiao Sang looked at the name and photo of his opponent on the screen, and related information emerged in his mind.
Compared to Jerome, the opponent has obviously experienced more trials and tribulations and actual combat. Such an opponent is not easy to defeat...
Just as I was thinking about it, Teacher Mikaela asked from the side:
"Have you ever heard of Li Muxin before?"
"Yes." Qiao Sang nodded and said, "He is quite famous in Longguo."
Although Li Muxin is a Dragon from Yantian Star, everyone is a Dragon, and occasionally news is exchanged, and sometimes it even becomes a hot topic.
If we were to ask which country on another planet the people of the Dragon Country on Blue Star are most interested in, it would naturally be the Dragon Country.
Because they are both Dragon Kingdoms, but on different planets, many policies and customs are also quite different.
"It's good to have heard of it." Mikaela said solemnly, "This guy may not be as talented as Jerome, but he definitely has a better mentality. Facing a player like him, you must be more stable than him."
After a pause, she added, "He'll also feint, or deliberately send out wrong commands for you to hear. When you're fighting, it's best to always pay attention to the actions of his pet and respond based on your own judgment, rather than reacting to his commands."
"I understand." Qiao Sang said seriously.
During the conversation, the game time of each player was also displayed on the screen.
Qiao Sang looked at his own time. It was three o'clock this afternoon.
When she saw the time, her first thought was:
Fortunately, we don't have to compete right away like last time, so we still have time to learn more about our opponent...
Then came the second thought: If we were to compete today, wouldn't the Dragon King be the one to help with the commentary...
Qiao Sang couldn't help but glance at the Dragon King on the field, wondering what the Dragon King's commentary style was like.
Soon, the two hosts and Dragon King disappeared from the field and appeared on the commentary desk.
Ten minutes later, the first group of members entered and the competition began.
The players participating in the competition on that day all have their own separate lounge.
Instead of watching the game, Qiao Sang went to the lounge with Teacher Mikaela to conduct more in-depth research on the next opponent and formulate a battle plan.
Time passes quickly.
At noon, Qiao Sang received a series of text messages and phone calls. After taking a look, she simply turned off her phone.
The same goes for the little treasure hunt.
Finally it was three o'clock.
On the commentary platform, Nephthys said loudly:
"Finally, the next group of competitors has arrived! This group's competitors are Qiao Sang and Li Muxin!"
At this moment, the stadium was instantly boiling with warm cheers and applause.
If we were to say who has been the most discussed and has gained the fastest number of fans after this week of competition, it would undoubtedly be Joe Sang.
The 18-year-old A-rank professional beastmaster, and her 6-0 victory over Jerome in the preliminaries, have made her a highly popular player in the Masters Challenge Cup. (End of this chapter)
