Before long, every stage of the Moda Wyvern evolutionary line gathered across the valley covered in green grass and fresh flowers.
Dragon-type pets, which were rarely seen on the outside, were everywhere to be found here.
Hovering in midair, resting on the ground, or perched on trees, their eyes were all focused on the largest and most imposing Moda Wyvern high in the sky.
Seeing everyone assembled, the Dragon King nodded at a relatively small Moda Wyvern on the ground.
Receiving the signal, that Moda Wyvern operated the device before it.
A giant virtual screen materialized in midair in an instant.
"After five consecutive days of intense competition, we have officially decided our top 8 contestants! Today, we will proceed with the top 8 into top 4 matches!" The host in the screen held a microphone and announced in a loud voice.
"Mo mo?"
"Mo mo?"
One by one, Little Moda Dragons, Moda Power Dragons, Moda Ao Dragons, Moda Overseer Dragons, Moda Dragons, and Moda Wyverns looked at one another, confusion evident in every set of eyes.
The clan did have a habit of gathering occasionally to watch matches, but those were usually when their own companions were competing outside or matches related to Dragon-type pets. This tournament was clearly not one of those.
"Mo mo?"
A bolder Moda Dragon called out loudly to the Dragon King, asking what kind of tournament this was.
"Mo mo."
Glancing down at the juniors below, the Dragon King let out an imposing call, indicating that this was a tournament called the Contract Synergy Tournament, where uncontracted humans and pets teamed up to enter.
"Mo mo."
Promptly after, it let out another call.
This tournament isn't important. What is important is that one of the contestants is a student of the Beast Tamer contracted to me.
"Mo mo?!"
"Mo mo?!"
The entire Little Moda Dragon clan displayed shocked and stunned expressions.
The younger ones didn't know their clan leader had a Beast Tamer, while the older ones knew their clan leader's Beast Tamer was a big figure at the S-rank level.
However, they remembered that this S-rank big figure was not on Flame Star. How could her student be here?
"Mo mo."
The Dragon King surveyed the expressions of its juniors, issuing a call in a composed tone.
Some of you younger ones might not know, but my Beast Tamer is an instructor at the Imperial Beast University, and the students she teaches are going to participate in the Interstellar Cup in the future.
Her entering this tournament means she's about to contract a pet next. You can watch her match, if there's anyone among you who takes a liking to her and wants to form a contract, I'll take you over to let her take a look. You might even have a chance to appear in the Interstellar Cup in the future.
"Mo mo!"
"Mo mo!"
"Mo mo!"
The moment those words were uttered, the entire Little Moda Dragon clan erupted in excitement.
The Interstellar Cup, that was the ultimate dream of every pet on Flame Star!
Especially for the Little Moda Dragons and Moda Power Dragons.
All of them knew clearly that professional Beast Tamers generally preferred to contract lower-rank pets.
The slightly higher-ranked Moda Dragons and Moda Wyverns looked on with more of a scrutinizing gaze.
Whether the human the leader spoke of was truly capable was something they could only confirm after seeing her with their own eyes.
Despite their differing thoughts, what remained identical was that the entire Little Moda Dragon clan stared intently at the giant screen, waiting for the appearance of the Beast Tamer their leader had mentioned.

On the other side.
Mulan Stadium.
The contestant pairings were still drawn up by the special guests.
"Tie tie."
Tie Daoyi drew a wooden slip and held it out toward the camera.
"Tie Daoyi drew the combination of Qiao Sang and Little Thunder Dragon! I wonder who their opponent will be!" The host announced into the microphone.
"Contestant Qiao Sang and Little Thunder Dragon have fought through immense difficulty to reach this point. I hope a same-tier opponent can be drawn for them this time." Fu Jian said with a smile.
She drew a slip, took a look at it herself first, and then said with a face full of awkwardness: "I am truly sorry, it seems Contestant Qiao Sang and Little Thunder Dragon will have to jump a rank to challenge once again.
Saying that, she displayed the wooden slip in her hand: [Lila Adela, Wind Proud Bird]
A Wind Proud Bird, a Mid-level Flying-type pet. Proud by nature, extremely fast... Information on the Wind Proud Bird surfaced in Qiao Sang's mind.
Seeing this result, a wave of clamor erupted in the spectator stands.
"Why does it feel like Qiao Sang and Little Thunder Dragon are so unlucky to run into Mid-level pet opponents so many times?"
"Tell me about it! Out of all the contestants in this tournament, there are barely any Mid-level pets in total, yet it feels like she's run into every single one of them."
"Is this rigged? Could Qiao Sang have offended the organizers?"
"Actually, the probability isn't particularly low. After all, there are barely any contestants left now. Besides, the organizers aren't stupid, the combination of Qiao Sang and Little Thunder Dragon clearly has the highest popularity right now, there's no way they would operate behind the scenes to get her eliminated early."
"Then Qiao Sang and Little Thunder Dragon are really unlucky enough..."
In Row 3, Area A.
Mikayla's phone vibrated repeatedly.
Pulling it out to look, it was filled with voice messages sent by Debt Collector Dragon.
Mikayla fell silent for a moment, chose to ignore them, put her phone back into her pocket, and looked toward the field.
The matches proceeded in an orderly fashion.
Currently, only four pairs of contestants remained to battle, with Qiao Sang placed in the second pair.
In under ten minutes, it was her turn to take the field.
Qiao Sang brought Tingbao onto the field and stood firm. Looking at the pet in the distance, roughly 90 centimeters in size, predominantly dark blue all over, with white markings on its head and tail tip, she began analyzing out of instinct.
The Wind Proud Bird excels most at speed, which happens to be what Tingbao currently excels at the least. If the opponent uses its advantage to conduct the battle, Tingbao's win rate will be extremely low...
In the span of these flashing thoughts, the light-shadow of the number "3" appeared on the field.
Shifting continuously alongside a mechanical voice counting down.

At the exact same time.
In the valley.
The Dragon King set down its phone with an unhappy face. Looking up, it caught the exact scene of Qiao Sang and Tingbao taking the field on the virtual screen.
Although it had asked for a long time yesterday without Mikayla giving Qiao Sang's information explicitly, the Dragon King recognized at a glance that Tingbao was not a pet from Flame Star.
"Mo mo!"
The Dragon King's eyes lit up as it let out a call
She's taking the field!
"Mo mo!"
The entire Little Moda Dragon clan felt excited at first, but then looked at Tingbao with vigilant expressions.
The other party had brought a Dragon-type pet just like them to participate in a tournament like this, causing them to feel a touch of pressure.
They hadn't watched this tournament much, but they knew that only Beast Tamers and pets with intentions to contract would register to enter.
"Mo mo!"
Noticing the atmosphere among its juniors, the Dragon King put on an imposing expression, letting out a loud roar.
Who are you showing these expressions to?! Are you really inferior to this little runt?! Don't forget, her instructor is my Beast Tamer!
"Mo mo!"
"Mo mo!"
The entire Little Moda Dragon clan was instantly emboldened, continuing to stare at the virtual screen.

Mulan Stadium.
"3, 2, 1, Match Start!"
The light-shadow vanished.
Rows of electrical arcs surfaced on Tingbao at the very first instance, converging into a single bolt that struck toward the Wind Proud Bird high in the sky.

Lmaoo Moda Dragon is funny- and it’s interesting that despite his rocky relationship with Mikayla he seems to respect her quite a bit.
