Recalling what her Beast Tamer had told her before the match, Qingbao's body immediately glowed with a pink light.

In the next second, an area of about twenty meters on the ground below lit up with the same pink radiance.

The purple poisonous gas covered the entire field, rendering the scenes inside invisible to the naked eye.

However, Qiao Sang possessed extraordinary vision. Even though the purple poisonous gas was quite dense, she could still faintly see Qingbao's silhouette high in the sky, as well as the faint outline of Venom-Backed Beast in the distance.

Venom-Backed Beast moved nimbly, spewing poisonous gas from its body while effortlessly dodging the violent wind sweeping toward it.

In the guest area: "Venom-Backed Beast's poisonous gas actually covers such a wide range! It seems it didn't even exert its full strength in the previous rounds." The host remarked emotionally.

Leonard calmly analyzed: "With this single move alone, the vast majority of pet beasts would directly fall into a poisoned state. However, Qinyin Fairy has Misty Terrain, so she shouldn't be in danger inside the poisonous gas for the time being."

"Wei ku."

"Wei ku."

Pseudo-Crying Ghost let out two calls, indicating that right now the field was no different from a poison domain. The Misty Terrain cast by Qinyin Fairy had a limited range, and since her specialty was Wind Transformation, floating out of Misty Terrain was bound to happen sooner or later, making it only a matter of time before she entered a poisoned state.

A simultaneous translation was relayed through the earpieces of the host and Leonard.

They didn't say anything regarding Pseudo-Crying Ghost's obvious bias toward Venom-Backed Beast. As a wild pet beast that had once won the championship, hoping for a fellow wild pet beast to claim the title was perfectly normal.

On the field: The thick purple poisonous gas obstructed Qingbao's vision, and it also blocked Venom-Backed Beast's view of Qingbao.

This is actually an opportunity... Qiao Sang spoke up: "Attack slightly to the left."

Qingbao, who was currently unable to tell north from south or east from west, felt as if she had been given a reassuring pill upon hearing her Beast Tamer's voice. Without the slightest hesitation, she opened her mouth and spewed a pink gale toward the left.

The pink gale caused the poisonous gas around her to churn wildly and scatter.

Immediately following that, her Beast Tamer's voice reached her ears once more: "Wind Transformation!"

Without another word, Qingbao transformed into wind and vanished.

Puff puff puff puff puff!

Just a moment after she transformed into wind and vanished, countless poison needles shot up from below like a torrential diagonal rain, furiously attacking the area directly above Misty Terrain.

All the poison needles pierced through the high sky, completely missing their mark.

First using poisonous gas to cover the field and block vision, then using poison needles to attack Qingbao's location... In fact, even if Venom-Backed Beast didn't know Qingbao's exact position, as long as the poison needles attacked indiscriminately while vision was blocked and poisonous gas was inhaled, most pet beasts would be hit. 

This Venom-Backed Beast actually developed a combo move on its own... Fortunately, Qingbao still remembered what I said earlier and cast Misty Terrain without needing a direct command... 

Qiao Sang sighed emotionally in her heart.

"Du bei!"

While her thoughts flickered, Venom-Backed Beast let out a painful cry.

Next, a fierce, raging wind suddenly surged up, sweeping across the entire area and instantly blowing away all the poisonous gas on the field, revealing Venom-Backed Beast's fallen figure on the ground.

A wave of commotion broke out in the audience.

They hadn't expected that in the exchange just now, Venom-Backed Beast, who had covered the entire field in poisonous gas, would be the one hit first.

"How did Qinyin Fairy hit Venom-Backed Beast?"

"I don't know, but I heard Qiao Sang issue a command just now. She seems to be able to see Venom-Backed Beast's location."

"I've heard before that B-rank big shots have physical attributes and five senses similar to superhumans. It's normal for her to be able to see it."

"Did Venom-Backed Beast only release poisonous gas without attacking? I thought it had the advantage in the poison gas and would take the opportunity to launch an attack."

"It probably did attack, Qiao Sang issued the command for Wind Transformation."

"It did attack! Are you guys blind? There's a pile of poison needles left on the ground!"

The voices around the field reached Venom-Backed Beast's ears. Seeing so many people watching it, Venom-Backed Beast flipped over and stood up as if it hadn't suffered any injury at all.

"Du bei!"

It even let out a high-pitched roar full of momentum.

The wild pet beasts in the audience instantly burst into cheers.

Why does this move feel strangely familiar... Qiao Sang thought to herself.

"Qing qing~"

Amidst the cheers of the wild pet beasts, Qingbao revealed herself, winked at Venom-Backed Beast, and blew a flirtatious kiss.

Qingbao has made huge progress. In the past, when she was in a bad mood, she wouldn't even be willing to cast the Charm skill. Pet beasts really improve the fastest in actual combat... Qiao Sang felt deeply gratified inside.

Looking at the pink heart coming straight toward it, Venom-Backed Beast put on a solemn expression, rapidly transformed into a streak of purple light, and while moving at high speed, raised its middle finger toward Qingbao with a provocative expression.

Qingbao's face instantly went dark.

At the same time, the raging wind around her suddenly intensified.

As if her Dao heart had shattered, the pink heart shape dissolved and vanished with a crack.

This Venom-Backed Beast seems to have quite a bit of battle experience. It even knows how to counter Charm with Taunt... Qiao Sang's brain worked rapidly.

Although Taunt was not a high-level skill, it often had miraculous effects against pet beasts with weak mental strength or easily fluctuating emotions. Just like now: When Taunt succeeded, a pet beast with Charm wouldn't be able to cast Charm for a certain period of time because its internal hatred value had been pulled up.

Pulling her thoughts together, Qiao Sang spoke up: "Double Wind."

"Qing qing!"

Qingbao opened her mouth, and a pink gale packed with fairy energy instantly gushed out from her mouth.

Maintaining her open-mouthed stance, another fierce gale roared out.

The two currents of wind rapidly fused together, abruptly expanding and transforming into a disastrous gale that swept toward Venom-Backed Beast.

Venom-Backed Beast's eyes sharpened as it ran rapidly. Then, realizing something, it turned its head while running and spewed a stream of green venom toward the chasing gale.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang realized its intention and issued the command: "Wind Transformation."

Qingbao transformed into wind and vanished.

At almost the exact same moment, the gale swept up Venom-Backed Beast along with the green venom inside it.

"Du bei!"

Venom-Backed Beast let out painful cries within the gale.

As the gale rotated, the venom sprayed outward continuously like a sudden downpour.

The moment it dripped onto the ground, corrosive green smoke instantly rose up.

This Venom-Backed Beast actually knows how to use the gale to expand the range of its venom... Qiao Sang looked at this Venom-Backed Beast with high regard, thinking to herself that no wonder it could reach the finals on its own.

With a brain like this, it was stronger than the vast majority of Beast Tamers.

Then Qiao Sang remembered something, sensed the situation, and said: "Go to Misty Terrain."

At this moment, Qingbao was no longer within the range of Misty Terrain. With the venom continuously spraying over a wide range along with the gale, the air would also become filled with poisonous gas. Qingbao might not be able to hold out, once she couldn't help but reveal herself, the venom would hit her and cause severe injury.

While Misty Terrain hadn't completely vanished yet, she should stay within its boundaries as early as possible.

Just as the words fell, Qiao Sang felt Qingbao's position shift, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.

In the guest area:

Hearing Qiao Sang's command, the host remarked with emotion: "Contestant Qiao Sang is very cautious! To think that even in a situation where she holds the advantage, she can still anticipate things before they happen."

Leonard said: "An excellent Beast Tamer basically looks two or three steps ahead. Contestant Qiao Sang has demonstrated this to us perfectly."

"Wei ku."

Pseudo-Crying Ghost nodded and let out a call, its expression also full of emotion.

It hadn't expected a B-rank Beast Tamer, in a competition of such manageable difficulty for them, to show zero sign of looking down on her opponent and seriously treat a high-level wild pet beast as a true rival.

On the field: The gale vanished, and with a loud BOOM, Venom-Backed Beast slammed heavily onto the ground.

It lay flat on the ground, its claws twitching slightly.

It's not over yet, this Venom-Backed Beast's defense is quite strong... Qiao Sang quickly said: "Finish it."

"Qing qing."

Qingbao revealed herself, a dazzling rainbow light bursting from her body and rapidly enveloping Venom-Backed Beast.

"Du bei!"

Venom-Backed Beast let out another painful cry and flew backward.

It was still facing the ground.

Just when Qiao Sang thought the match was over, her sharp eyes caught Venom-Backed Beast's claws twitching slightly once more.

It hasn't completely passed out yet... Qiao Sang spoke up: "Finish it again."

"Du, du bei..."

Before Qingbao could launch her attack, Venom-Backed Beast raised its claw and let out a struggle of a call, indicating: Don't... don't hit anymore...

Then its whole claw dropped onto the ground.

The pet beast wearing the referee license appeared out of thin air beside Venom-Backed Beast.

Qingbao, who was just about to attack, put on a disappointed expression.

She still remembered the opponent's provocative actions during the match and hadn't fought her fill at all.

After about two or three seconds, the pet beast wearing the referee license raised its green flag and waved it toward Qiao Sang's direction.

The host shouted loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen! Just now, the champion of our current Strongest High-Level Beast Tournament has been born! It is Contestant Qiao Sang and her Qinyin Fairy!"

Enthusiastic cheers erupted across the entire venue.

Although the wild pet beasts in the audience supported Venom-Backed Beast as a fellow wild pet beast, in essence they still revered the strong. As long as the winner claimed final victory through sheer strength, they would cheer all the same.

In an instant, the entire arena echoed with the names of Qiao Sang and Qinyin Fairy.

"Mei mei!"

"Ci ci!"

In the back row of the audience, Meitianhua and a pet beast covered in spikes stood up, holding cheering sticks and passionately celebrating.

"Qing qing."

Feeling the surrounding cheers, Qingbao floated to her Beast Tamer's side, pretending to put on a bashful expression.

In the waiting area: "Yap yap!"

"Yap yap!"

Yabao cheered excitedly.

"Xun xun!"

"Xun xun!"

After Little Treasure called out for a while, he looked at the cheering scene in the audience and put on an envious expression.

The next morning.

Qiao Sang woke up, washed up briefly, finished her breakfast, and began packing her luggage.

After the competition ended last night, the champion's rewards were presented on the spot. After discussing it with Teacher Mikayla, she decided not to waste time and set off today.

Lubao, Qingbao, Gangbao, and Little Treasure were helping to pack nearby.

Tingbao watched curiously from the side, poking at this item here and touching that object there.

"Xun xun..."

While placing the packed items into the ring, Little Treasure let out a sigh, indicating that he also really wanted to enter a competition.

Without a second thought, Qiao Sang said: "Entering a competition is easy. Let's check in a bit if there are any matches suitable for you."

"Xun xun~"

Little Treasure's eyes instantly lit up, and he let out a call, indicating he wanted to check right now.

"You pack the luggage first, and I'll check for you." Qiao Sang said, pulling out her phone, opening the tournament-related official app, and searching for competitions that met the criteria for Little Treasure to register.

Very quickly, she saw a competition specifically for Ghost-type pet beasts to register.

Opening it to browse briefly, she discovered the champion prize was a gift package worth 10,000 League Coins, as well as the latest smartphone model from a well-known brand.

Suddenly, Qiao Sang sensed something and closed her phone with lightning speed.

"Xun xun?"

Little Treasure's voice sounded beside her.

Why stopped looking?

Qiao Sang turned her head, looking at Little Treasure who had leaned over and just attempted to peek at her phone, and said without changing her expression: "On second thought, let's forget about your competition for now. Don't forget we're packing to head to Qingguang Island."

To tell the truth, if Little Treasure hadn't leaned over just now, she might have checked the competition details further. But the timing of his leaning over was terrible, if he saw that the prize included a phone, Little Treasure would definitely sign up for the match, and then how could she get him to willingly do tasks to earn points?

Gangbao silently glanced at her Beast Tamer.

"Xun xun~"

Little Treasure felt disappointed at first, but then remembered they were going out to have fun, cheered up again, and let out a call indicating she was right.

Having said that, he continued packing.

"Yap yap!"

At this moment, Yabao ran in from outside, chewing on an energy pill while letting out a call, indicating that Meitianhua next door had arrived.

Hearing this, Qiao Sang stood up and walked out of the room.

Qingbao also floated out.

In the living room, Meitianhua was sitting on the sofa.

Dragon King suddenly heard something and gave a look to Little Moda Dragon off to the side.

"Mo mo."

Little Moda Dragon was very quick-witted and handed a tree fruit to Meitianhua.

"Mei mei."

Meitianhua took the tree fruit, feeling somewhat flattered and surprised.

In its impression, Dragon-type pet beasts were all very arrogant. It hadn't expected a Dragon-type pet beast to be so friendly as to give it food.

When Qiao Sang entered the living room, this was the scene that met her eyes.

"Mo mo." Little Moda Dragon offered a warm greeting.

Qiao Sang flashed a subtle smile at it, then turned to Meitianhua and asked: "Why did you come over?"

Last night when Meitianhua came over to help Qingbao train, she had told it that she would leave for Qingguang Island right away and wouldn't need it to come over anymore.

"Mei mei?" Meitianhua looked over, putting on a reluctant expression as it let out a call.

"Qing qing."

Qingbao helped translate: It was asking if we would still come back.

Qiao Sang nodded and said: "Of course, we're just going out to have fun for a while."

"Mei mei."

Hearing this, Meitianhua put on a happy expression and let out a call.

"Qing qing."

Qingbao translated simultaneously.

It said it didn't have any other business coming over, it just wanted to come see us off.

Hearing these words, Qiao Sang couldn't help but feel a bit touched, saying: "There was no need for you to come all the way over just to see us off."

Saying that, she remembered proper business, looked at Qingbao off to the side, and said: "Keep Meitianhua company, I'll go pack my things first."

"Qing qing."

Qingbao nodded, then floated over to Meitianhua's side.

Looking at Qingbao floating over, Meitianhua seemed to realize something, putting on a surprised expression.

In the past when it saw Qinyin Fairy, a huge wind would be blowing around her body. This time, surprisingly, there was nothing at all.

Half an hour later.

Qiao Sang finished packing her things, and brought Yabao and the others out the front door together with Teacher Mikayla.

"Mo mo."

Dragon King pointed at a few Moda Dragons and Little Moda Dragons off to the side and let out a call, asking if they could go along together.

The corner of Mikayla's mouth twitched, and she refused: "No."

Dragon King ignored her and looked toward Qiao Sang.

Mikayla: ...

Qiao Sang couldn't understand the meaning, but she could read the atmosphere and said: "I listen to Teacher."

Mikayla instantly felt completely refreshed in mind and body.

"Mo mo."

Dragon King put on a compromising expression and let out a call toward the Moda Dragons and Little Moda Dragons off to the side.

"Mo mo."

"Mo mo..."

Several Moda Dragons let out calls indicating they understood, while the Little Moda Dragons put on reluctant expressions.

"Meitianhua, we're leaving now then. See you next time." Qiao Sang turned and said.

"Mei mei."

Meitianhua nodded and waved its claw.

"And Moda Dragons and Little Moda Dragons, thank you for this period of time. See you again if fate permits." Qiao Sang said.

"Mo mo."

"Mo mo."

The Moda Dragons and Little Moda Dragons called out one after another, flapped their wings, and flew into the high sky.

"Mo mo..."

Moda Power Dragon lowered its head, flapped its wings, and prepared to leave.

"Moda Power Dragon, aren't you going with us to have fun?"

Moda Power Dragon stopped in its tracks, turned its head abruptly, and put on a stunned expression.

It? Going along to have fun?

Looking at Moda Power Dragon's expression, Qiao Sang couldn't help but look at Dragon King and ask: "Is Moda Power Dragon not coming with us?"

During this period, new Moda Dragons and Little Moda Dragons basically came every day, and only this Moda Power Dragon had been staying here the entire time, she had assumed Dragon King would bring Moda Power Dragon along.

"Mo mo!"

Dragon King was stunned for a moment, then put on an excited expression, quickly nodded, and let out a call.

Together, of course together!

Saying that, it patted Moda Power Dragon's head.

"Mo mo!"

Moda Power Dragon snapped back to its senses, putting on a happy expression.

  1. Thank you as always for the chapters. And congratulations to your graduation!

  2. Thanks for the chapters! Feels like something significant will happen on the island they're going to. Maybe it will cause her to undergo significant brain development to contract Tingbao and get close to contracting the Moda Power Dragon, too?

  3. Thanks for the quintuple chapter!

    Moda Power Dragon’s earnestness is paying off. Still rooting for it to become her S rank pet. After she contracts Tingbao, she’ll be able to bring an uncontracted pet beast with her back to Blue Star, right? With the slot freed up and all.

    Besides, it seems to have built some rapport with Tingbao over the past few days. The only reason I can think of as to why she wouldn’t do it would be that she never intentionally contracted two pets with overlapping primary attributes. Yabao wasn’t psychic originally, and Gangbao was moreso contracted for her defensive steel typing rather than her flying.

    1. There's also the fact that each of her pets has some kind of special rarity to them.

      Yabao = First of its kind
      Xiaobao = forgot the word but mutant? variant? It's a shiny. You know what I mean
      Lubao = endangered species
      Gangbao = from another planet, bond evolution, first of its kind
      Qingbao = legendary
      Tingbao = dragon, Qiao Sang's first egg (Probably going to find out more about its ancestry later that makes it more special)

      Based on typing and 'unique' factor, I just don't think Moda Power Dragon cuts it. We've already got a shiny and a dragon.

      Here are some thoughts on some fun unique traits that could show up:
      Extinct species - something like pokemons fossil revival. Personally I'd love something like a Genesect. Make it a fossil and mechanical pet.

      Alternate dimension beast - ultra beast inspired

      Merged beasts - a lot of beast taming novels have a Xuan Wu inspired beast, combining a tortoise and a snake. Personally I think that example is overdone, but could be fun if applied in an interesting way

      Evil/Calamity beast - I think it would be adorable to see Qiao Sang to take a future big bad beast and make it one of her adorable treasures.
