Qiao Sang saw the situation, had a thought, and turned to look at Gangbao, saying:
"You go."
"Steel Chief."
Gangbao understood his Beast Tamerâs intent, called out once, flapped his wings, and flew into the arena.
Yaobao: "???"
"Ya Ya?"
Yaobao was stunned for a moment, unable to help but call out.
Wasnât it supposed to be him competing?
"Their strength doesnât even warrant your move," Qiao Sang quickly reassured.
"Ya Ya..."
So itâs because the opponent is too weak... Yaobao was instantly persuaded, sighed, and waited outside the arena.
Right now, getting into a match was just too difficult.
Everyone present, all Beast Tamers with experience in nurturing, naturally heard this sentence, and immediately they all spoke up angrily:
"Franklin! Defeat her! Show her a lesson!"
"Within a minute, I want to see this match end!"
"So arrogant, too arrogant! What school is this student from anyway! Donât they know Franklin became a B-level Beast Tamer at 24!"
The crowd was very displeased, while the people from the Imperial Beastmaster Academy were amused.
"I really like Qiao Sangâs arrogance, geniuses should be like this!"
"Haha, when Franklin said things like this, you didnât react this way."
"He doesnât even deserve to say such words."
On the training field, Franklinâs expression slightly changed, as if he hadnât heard what Qiao Sang said to Yaobao earlier, he asked:
"Can we start now?"
"Of course," Qiao Sang said.
As soon as the words were out, a curly-haired man in his twenties, wearing glasses, walked out from the crowd.
He raised his hand, showing the refereeâs certificate in his hand, saying:
"Iâm a B-level referee. If you have no objections, Iâll preside over this match for you."
In any competition on the Flame Sky Star, for fairness, a referee must be present, so that even if you win the match, youâre not afraid the opponent will renege on the bet.
Franklin nonchalantly said:
"Then you shall."
After speaking, he nodded to the Evil Moon Rabbit beside him.
The Evil Moon Rabbit leapt, jumping into the arena.
The crowd erupted with cheers.
At the same time.
In a restaurant afar in a high-rise building.
The members of Flame Heaven Universityâs competition team were gathered in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching the scene on the dueling field.
A red-haired woman lightly furrowed her brows, saying:
"Franklinâs really out of line, casually dueling someone in the middle of the competition phase."
"Not really casual," said the white-haired man beside her, "This is a 17-year-old B-level Beast Tamer. If I were him, Iâd definitely want to duel too."
"It seems he doesnât even know who the opponent is," the blonde woman who hadnât said much quipped with schadenfreude.
"I heard itâs a 1V1 duel, Evil Moon Rabbit against Steel Chief Kane, I think Franklin might not necessarily lose."
At this moment, the restaurant certainly had a sound insulation effect, but given the occupants were either A-level or B-level Beast Tamers, if they wanted to, they could hear sounds from the distance outside the window.
While the Flame Heaven University team was in discussion, on the training field, the curly-haired man with glasses made a seal gesture, summoning a silver Pet Beast that looked like a clock.
The Pet Beast did not move its body; only its internal pendulum swung counterclockwise once.
At the same time, it emitted a mechanical sound of "10, 9, 8..."
As the Pet Beast emitted the mechanical sound, the bodies of Gangbao and the Evil Moon Rabbit gradually enlarged.
The Evil Moon Rabbitâs body stopped increasing in size when reaching about 10 meters, whereas Gangbaoâs body continued to grow until it surpassed twenty meters completely.
The onlookers were not surprised; it was quite normal for Pet Beasts to have vastly different body sizes at the same stage.
When the mechanical sound counted down to "1", the man with glasses waved a green flag he had ready for a long time.
Almost at the same moment, the Evil Moon Rabbit transformed into a streak of black light, attacking Gangbao at a speed the naked eye couldnât catch.
Its surroundings generated surging air waves, spreading as it moved and swept in all directions.
The onlookers and Pet Beastsâ hair and fur flew, instinctively taking several steps back.
Gangbaoâs body remained unmoved, allowing the opponent to crash into it.
"Boom!!!"
A loud noise, as if a black energy mass exploded in the air, sending violent shock waves in all directions.
The onlookers and Pet Beasts retreated again and again.
At the center of the explosion, no one was flung back, nor was there any sound of a miserable cry.
Franklin frowned.
The Evil Moon Rabbit didnât take a momentâs pause, directly jumping into the sky amidst the explosion, raising its left paw, instantly condensing a super-giant Energy Sphere more than twice its body size.
Everyone gasped in amazement at the massive Energy Sphere...
At this moment, Qiao Sang spoke:
"Evolve."
In the next second, amid the not yet dissipated shockwaves, a dazzling white light suddenly brightened.
Franklin: "???"
The onlookers and Pet Beasts: "???"
