The host rambled on with a lot more words than in the previous rounds.
After about ten minutes, he said:
"In today’s matches to decide the top 8 from the top 16, we will not use the unified battle method. Instead, we will have players compete one by one."
In other words, there were just too few participants.
Intermediate and lower-level Pet Beast battles are short. If all the players were to compete at once, even with a camera on each battle ground, it wouldn’t take much time. So, to extend the broadcast channel time, having the participants compete in groups is the best choice.
The same will apply to the next few rounds of matches.
This was explained to all contestants by the on-site manager when they arrived.
Qiao Sang took her place in the front row of the contestant area and waited quietly.
The list of competing groups was drawn by guests.
Fu Jian drew "Qiao Sang, Little Ting Dragon," while Tie Daoyi drew "Yushike, Electric Mad Dog."
The Electric Mad Dog is an intermediate Electric Type Pet Beast, with a trait of being strongly attracted to fast-moving objects, so it often chases vehicles or Pet Beasts on the road... Information about her opponent’s Pet Beast flashed through Qiao Sang’s mind, and she sighed inwardly:
Another intermediate Pet Beast...
In the previous match, Little Ting Dragon got lucky, triggering the Multiple Scales trait, and the opponent used Flame Wall around him, which enhanced the power of his attack, clinching the victory.
Now all the remaining contestants probably know about Little Ting Dragon’s Multiple Scales trait, so this match likely won’t be as lucky.
There are only so few intermediate Pet Beasts, and yet how could I be so unlucky, facing two in a row before even making it to the top 10...
Little Tingbao hung from Qiao Sang’s neck, showing little interest in its opponent, seemingly unaware of the gravity of the situation.
The competition proceeded smoothly.
Battles between intermediate and lower-level Pet Beasts are quick, usually ending within five minutes.
Qiao Sang watched with interest.
Although the competing Pet Beasts are of low level, and the commands issued by the Beast Tamers held little merit, these Pet Beasts were all new and unique to those from Blue Star and Chao Su Star.
