The top five had to choose a bye?! She had just figured out a way to let Gangbao accumulate points quickly, but he was directly sent to the semi-finals? According to the last calculation, defeating a mid-level pet beast is 80 points. Even if no high-level pet beasts played in two games, it would still be 320 points.

A full 320 points were gone just like that?

Qiao Sang was silent for a long time.

Although what Alva said was unpleasant to hear, it is indeed a common practice in many competitions to allow the strongest players to have a bye.

Damn it, he was judged as the strongest after only two rounds of competition. Isn't that too hasty? Qiao Sang immediately thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he stood up suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Alva asked.

"Go to the bathroom." After saying that, Qiao Sang turned and left.

Going to the toilet was of course a lie. While people from other schools had not left the venue yet, Qiao Sang went out alone and found a place where no one was.

"Don't win the afternoon game too easily." Qiao Sang said to Xiao Xunbao and Gangbao.

The so-called byes were just Alva's guess, but her performance in the first two rounds was indeed stronger than that of others. However, before the byes, there was still a game in the afternoon, so she could perform a little weaker and make the leaders feel that choosing her as the bye was not a good idea.

"Xunxun?"

Little Xunbao showed a curious expression.

Why?

"To play more games." Qiao Sang said honestly, "Otherwise, we might get consecutive byes and go directly to the semi-finals."

"Xunxun?"

Xiao Xunbao was a little confused. Wouldn’t it be a good thing to go directly to the semi-finals?

"Gangbao needs to play more games to improve his strength." Qiao Sang explained patiently.

She will have to go back to the third zone after this friendly match. Even if Gangbao doesn't actively add points, a fixed number of points will be added to her level every day. Evolution is a matter of time, and there are not many opportunities to gain points through team battles like this one.

"Search~"

Little Xunbao understood what happened and patted his chest with his paws to indicate that it was his responsibility.

As long as the fourth brother goes to bed on time like last night and is not called out for all-night training, it doesn’t matter how many games he plays!

Gangbao flapped his wings and said nothing.

In its opinion, whether the competition can be easy or not does not focus on itself, the little treasure hunter just needs to pay attention.

…

2:30 pm, pet competition venue.

Qiao Sang held Yabao and watched the game on the court.

Maggie was sitting nearby.

Now Qiao Sang is the only one left in Senan High School, so he has to be careful.

"Wait, which two pets are you going to send into battle?" asked Maggie.

"I haven't thought about it yet." Qiao Sang said.

It is a taboo to reveal the information of pets before the game. There are people all around, so Qiao Sang subconsciously concealed it.

"Send anyone, but don't send Steel Falcon," McGee said in a low voice.

"Why?" Qiao Sang frowned.

"I had a conversation with the top management of Saher School at noon, and they all agreed that you are the strongest among the contestants this time. If nothing unexpected happens, you will be given a bye after this competition." Maggie said earnestly:

"The little steel falcon is still a primary pet after all. You should send a more reliable pet to win this crucial game."

Qiao Sang looked at him and said righteously:

"Teacher, this is a friendly match. Winning or losing is not important. I am here for communication."

Maggie: “…”

There are only 18 players left, and the battle is divided into 9 groups.

Qiao Sang barely had to wait before it was her turn.

The broadcast sounded, and under the gaze of the audience, Qiao Sang and Du Silan walked onto the field at the same time.

Du Silan has long black hair that reaches her shoulders, fair skin, and pretty facial features. It can be seen that she is also a Dragon citizen.

She looked at Qiao Sang in the distance and sighed slightly:

"It seems my luck is not very good."

The sounds on the field were clearly heard by the audience.

Everyone laughed.

There are four pets, three of which are high-level pets. When most people only have two pets, Qiao Sang's strength is recognized without any dispute. The players who are matched with her are indeed very unlucky.

However, this is a friendly match, and not all schools here implement the point system. There are still quite a few schools that come here for the purpose of exchange.

That was the case with Gwyder College.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Hearing this, they all laughed among themselves.

My friend, don't be discouraged, believe in yourself! This way, I won't win so easily... Qiao Sang wanted to turn into a close mentor to give him some advice.

Du Silan in front of her was one of the top 18 contestants, so she was naturally also on her list.

The opponent has two intermediate pets, one water-type and one electric-type. They mainly rely on water and electric skills to double the damage and eliminate the opponent.

It sounds powerful, but unfortunately the opponent is not able to integrate the skills of these two attributes, so the power is not as great as imagined.

She wanted to make this match harder to win, but if her opponent was not in good spirits from the beginning and she still won with difficulty, wouldn't that be too fake? What if those leaders saw through her and let her take a bye? For a moment, Qiao Sang was very worried.

On the other side, Du Silan had already started making seals with his hands.

Two gray star arrays lit up at the same time.

A blue pet with white spots, a round body, and two small ears on its head, and a medium-sized dog pet with yellow patterns, a large head, and a dark blue body appeared in the star array.

At the same time, Xiao Xunbao showed up and appeared on the field with Gangbao.

The rolling leopard is a mid-level water pet. It doesn't like to swim in the water, but rolls forward instead. It rolls faster than walking... The thunder dog's hair generates electricity by rubbing against the air, and stores it in the hair all over its body. It uses the electricity stored in the hair to stimulate its muscles to increase its instantaneous explosive power... Qiao Sang looked at the two pets in the distance, and the information he had learned before flashed through his mind.

At this time, a voice sounded on the radio:

"The game begins."

The Thunder Dog turned into a straight-line afterimage and rushed towards Gangbao.

As he ran, yellow arcs of electricity flashed and crackled on his body.

At the same time, the rolling leopard opened its mouth and, as if just for show, sprayed a weak jet of water at Xiao Xunbao.

Just as the thunderhound was about to hit, little Xunbao's eyes glowed blue.

The rolling leopard, who was still using the water gun, suddenly appeared in front of Gangbao.

When the audience saw this scene, they discussed:

"It's the same again. Let one of the opponent's pets block the attack of another pet. Spatial movement should not appear in high school games."

"If you ask me, the rolling leopard should have started moving at the beginning. This ghost-type pet beast called Ghost Ring Ghost can not only move in space, but also control dark shadows. Facing such an opponent, the most taboo thing is to stay in the same place without moving."

"How can we fight this? We can't fight this at all."

"I feel like the little steel falcon has been completely carried away by the ghost ring ghost."

As soon as he finished speaking, the thunder-haired dog on the field hit the rolling leopard hard.

The little steel falcon seemed to have not yet reacted and remained motionless.

The rolling leopard flew backwards, taking the little steel falcon with it and it fell heavily to the ground.

Everyone: “???”
