"Not bad-looking, but Snow butterfly is still prettier." Qiao Sang replied again.

Snow Butterfly and Venomous Butterfly both evolved from the cottonbug, making it easy for people to compare the two.

Venomous Butterfly has bright colors and vividly patterned wings, making it obvious that it’s a toxic species.

In contrast, Snow Butterfly's wings resemble transparent silk, giving off a feeling of purity and elegance.

Fang Sisi glanced at the cottonbug, and the image of Venomous Butterfly floated into her mind.

Indeed, Snow Butterfly is more attractive...

Unbeknownst to the cottonbug, its Beast Master was captivated by the Venomous Butterfly in the arena, almost changing its evolution form.

The competition continued efficiently.

"Let’s welcome contestant No. 105, Pan Jishu..."

"I’ll go wait backstage." Qiao Sang said.

At this pace, it would be her turn in about ten minutes.

"Okay, go ahead. I’ll help you record the impressive performance of the Fire Fang Dog." Fang Sisi nodded.

Hearing this, the Fire Fang Dog quickly adjusted its sunglasses with its paw.

Qiao Sang arrived at the backstage waiting room and didn't wait long before a staff member wearing a headset called her name to head to the competition area.

"Let’s welcome contestant No. 123, Qiao Sang."

As Qiao Sang walked through the passage to the arena, she felt a moment of daze.

Standing in the center of the arena felt very different from viewing it from the audience’s perspective...

The Fire Fang Dog also looked dazed.

Why are so many people staring at it...

Silently, it puffed out its chest, trying to stand taller.

"Contestant Qiao Sang's pet is actually a Fire Fang Dog! It’s quite rare for a 15-year-old newcomer Beast Master to contract a fire-type beast as their first pet! San Duo, what do you think?" Asked the middle-aged commentator with slicked-back hair.

"Indeed, Qiao Sang's choice is quite bold. At 15, I wouldn’t dare to deal with fire-type beasts." San Duo joked about himself.

"It seems the situation isn’t looking good for contestant Sun Jie. I wonder what his pet is?" The middle-aged commentator remarked, observing the scene.

Most F-grade Beast Masters, who typically only have one low-level pet, carry their pets with them to showcase their identity as Beast Masters.

However, some prefer to keep their pets in the Beast master Codex to maintain an air of mystery.

Contestant No. 124, Sun Jie, was clearly one of them; he hadn’t summoned his pet even after being there for a while, appearing very mysterious.

"Please have both parties summon their respective pets." The referee reminded when contestant No. 124 didn’t respond.

Sun Jie struggled for a moment before finally summoning his pet.

A familiar figure appeared in front of Qiao Sang.

It was a cottonbug...

Qiao Sang, a slender girl, had a Fire Fang Dog, while Sun Jie, who looked around 180 cm tall, had contracted a cottonbug.

This combination created a striking visual effect for the audience.

"It seems there’s no suspense in this match for Qiao Sang."

As the commentator's words fell, the Fire Fang Dog unleashed a fire whirl, swiftly ending the match.

"Sun Jie was simply unlucky; if he hadn’t encountered Qiao Sang, he might have stood a chance."

The commentator also tried to save a bit of face for Sun Jie.

The Hundred New competition not only had live audiences but also viewers streaming on various platforms.

Isn’t this just bullying?

Why are there so many people contracting cotton pests?

Because they’re cheap.

I want the link to those Huoya Dog sunglasses in one second!

Link please +1

Link please +10001

Link please +10002

"Yap!"

Returning to her seat, the Fire Fang Dog eagerly asked Fang Sisi for the video.

It wanted to see its impressive performance just now!

Though Fang Sisi didn’t understand the Huoya Dog's words, she could read its body language.

Embarrassed, she laughed awkwardly: "Haha, I just happened to get a call."

Actually, that wasn’t the case.

The truth was that when she started recording, she saw her favorite apricot mushroom pass by in the aisle and couldn’t help but turn the camera.

By the time the mushroom moved away and she returned the camera to the competition, the match had already ended...

The wagging tail of the Fire Fang Dog stopped instantly.

Its sunglasses concealed its disappointed eyes, but Qiao Sang still sensed something was off.

"If you want to see it, we can watch it when we get home, the competition platform has replays." Qiao Sang comforted.

The Fire Fang Dog’s tail immediately wagged again.

Fang Sisi watched with admiration.

No wonder Qiao Sang was the first to dare to contract a fire-type pet; she had the Huoya Dog completely under control.

Although the F-grade Beast Master competition was dull and unremarkable, Qiao Sang stayed in the arena to watch all day.

She was used to being well-prepared for everything.

At 7:20 PM, Qiao Sang looked at the notes she had saved on her phone.

There were a total of 21 Beast Masters listed.

Except for contestant No. 67, who had a Small Dragon, the rest all had intermediate-level pets.

Most new Beast Masters around Qiao Sang’s age were just there for a day of competition.

Among the freshly graduated students from Class 3-7, all four other classmates who participated had been eliminated, leaving only Qiao Sang.

【Qiao Sang, you have to keep it up!】

【You're the last one standing from our class!】

【If you face someone named Zhao Hai, remember to take revenge for me!】

Although they had graduated, the class group had not disbanded, and the eliminated classmates kept tagging Qiao Sang.

But she hadn’t shown up in the group.

She was busy strategizing with the Fire Fang Dog against their opponents.

After thoroughly researching the 21 Beast Masters in her notes and rewatching the recorded videos, Qiao Sang searched for the replays of today’s competition and handed her phone to the Fire Fang Dog.

The Hundred New competition wasn’t a large-scale event, but during this period right after the high school entrance exams in Hanggang City, it still garnered significant attention.

Each standout contestant had their match segments edited and highlighted; Qiao Sang showed the Fire Fang Dog its own short segment.

The comments filled most of the screen.

"Yap!"

The Fire Fang Dog barked anxiously.

Qiao Sang reached out to turn off the comments, and only then was the Fire Fang Dog satisfied to watch the video.

After it finished watching, it barked once again, and Qiao Sang replayed it for it.

After Qiao Sang replayed it three times, the Fire Famg Dog finally stopped barking.

As the video ended again, the Fire Fang Dog tapped the screen with its paw.

It realized that after watching its Beast Master operate so many times, it had learned how to replay the video itself.

The next day.

Shouke Garden.

In front of the pet competition arena.

As soon as Qiao Sang arrived, she was blocked.

"Contestant Qiao Sang, I’m a reporter from the Ruixin Times. Would you mind taking a few minutes for an interview?"

Every time competitions were held in various places, there were always a few contestants that became hot topics.

After yesterday’s live broadcast, Qiao Sang had become one of those discussed contestants.

It wasn’t just because of her clean and decisive performance, but because she dared to contract a fire-type pet as a newcomer Beast Master.

"Sorry, I need to go inside to compete." Qiao Sang declined.

"Everyone was impressed by your courage in contracting a fire-type pet and the Fire Fang Dog’s impressive entrance yesterday. They all want to know more about you and the Fire Fang Dog. Please don’t refuse, contestant Qiao Sang." The Ruixin Times reporter said sincerely.

"Is that so…"

"Yap~"

Both Qiao Sang and the Fire Fang Dog felt a bit shy.

"Well, you all can—"

"It’s contestant Lu You!" Someone shouted.

The reporter, who had just been full of sincerity, vanished before Qiao Sang as he and his team rushed to the direction of Lu You.

Qiao Sang: …

Fire Fang Dog: …
