Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 514

Chapter 514: Chapter 473 The List of the Top Five

"Boom! Boom!"

Even though Boom Boom was just a low-level Pet Beast, it had courage to spare and didn’t know the meaning of the word "fear."

It looked at its opponent, who was many times its size, and let out a defiant shout, signaling, "Come on, just bring it on!"

"Bingke?"

Lubao looked toward the tiny creature, even smaller than Xiao Xunbao, and turned its puzzled gaze to its own Beast Tamer.

Was this its next opponent?

"Yes."

Qiao Sang nodded.

Lubao fell silent.

"Cue!"

At that moment, the whistle that signaled the start of the match blew.

The audience in the seats began to discuss.

"I bet it’s over in 30 seconds."

"I bet 20 seconds."

"Then I bet 15 seconds."

"Don’t be too harsh, guys. Boom Boom is very strong, okay? It’s not scared at all facing an opponent two levels higher. Just on this point, how many Pet Beasts can do that? I bet 10 seconds."

"Hahaha, brother, don’t be too funny."

"...Actually, Boom Boom is really not weak. It’s mainly because the level is too low. If Bingke Xilu deals with Boom Boom the same way it dealt with Santao, it definitely can’t do it. Boom Boom’s main move is self-destruct, which is very dangerous, whether inside its body or outside," a spectator from the Liaoxi Area couldn’t stand it anymore and tried to argue.

"Then how many seconds do you bet?" asked the person next to him.

The spectator from the Liaoxi Area thought for a moment and said, "13 seconds, I guess."

"Cue!"

No sooner had the words fallen than the whistle on the field blew.

"Boom, boom..."

The virtual screen showed Boom Boom lying on the ground, stars spinning around its dazed face.

The audience reacted indifferently, showing no particular surprise.

The spectator from the Liaoxi Area was stunned for a moment, then turned and asked:

"How many seconds did this match just take?"

"11 seconds," replied the boy next to him who had been timing because of the bet.

Sigh! It’s too disappointing. Why couldn’t it hold on for just two more seconds... The spectator from the Liaoxi Area gazed at the virtual screen showing Boom Boom, his expression filled with disappointment.

...

Time rolled back to 11 seconds ago.

After the whistle blew, Boom Boom soared into the sky and let out an arrogant shout at Lubao.

"Boom! Boom!"

Immediately after, it rushed toward Lubao’s direction at high speed.

Upon seeing this, Cui Pingkun’s lips twitched involuntarily.

It wasn’t really Boom Boom’s fault for being so arrogant when facing an opponent so much stronger.

The main issue was his own guidance which made Boom Boom mistakenly believe it was an exceptionally awesome existence.

There was no helping it; the opponents he now faced were at least mid-level Pet Beasts, and although Boom Boom had great potential, at this stage it truly was weak.

The only skill that could cause damage to the opponent, even managing to trade one-for-one with a higher level, was self-destruct.

To unleash its full energy in an explosion to exert the greatest power, it needed confidence first.

After self-destructing, no matter the opponent, Boom Boom would fall.

To ensure that Boom Boom self-destructed with confidence every time, he would always tell it afterward that the opponent had been taken down.

And Boom Boom never doubted this.

Rest easy... Cui Pingkun thought to himself.

"Boom! Boom!"

A layer of white light emerged on Boom Boom’s body, swiftly approaching Lubao.

My Beast Tamer told me, when facing an opponent who seems stronger, just explode on them! No opponent could withstand its self-destruct!

To a low-level Pet Beast, Boom Boom’s speed was incredibly fast.

The whistle blew.

Qiao Sang waved his hand, storing Lubao into the Beast Taming Codex, and walked toward the player’s passage.

In the player’s corridor, the host’s voice outside came through clearly:

"Hello everyone, the top five of the 336th National Campus Beast Taming Tournament has just been finalized! Please look at the big screen!"

...

On the battlefield.

As the host finished speaking, the names of five participants, along with the number of wins and losses they had since the national tournament began, appeared on the virtual screen.

The host announced loudly:

"They are, from Chong Island Region, contestant Zhang Wandi! From Zhongkong Region, contestant Tang Yi! From Liaoxi Region, contestant Liao Qiang! From Zhongkong Region, contestant Zhao Chuanyu! And from Yuhua Region, contestant Qiao Sang!"

"According to the rules of the competition, among the top five, the contestant with the most losses so far in the national tournament will directly become the fifth-place winner of the individual competition in this National Campus Beast Taming Tournament!"

"And that person is, from Liaoxi Region, contestant Liao Qiang!"

On the virtual screen, the number of losses in the national tournament was written behind the names of the five people.

Behind Liao Qiang’s name, the number of losses was written as[3], the highest among the five.

The host continued:

"Tomorrow night at 7:30, we will hold the semi-finals of the National Campus Beast Taming Tournament here, don’t miss it!"

...

At 9:25 p.m.

Montin Hotel.

[Qiao Sang! I heard you made it to the semi-finals!]

[Awesome! I never thought I’d have a bigshot in my circle of friends! You’d better not delete me!]

[If someone told me half a year ago that you’d be in the National Campus Beast Taming Tournament and even make it to the semi-finals, I’d never have believed it!]

[Qiao Sang, remember to let me know when you’re back, our whole family is ready to go out and celebrate!]

[We agreed to be losers together, but you made it to the national top four! I don’t believe it! Tell me this isn’t true!]

Qiao Sang lay on the bed, gazing at the ceiling, while his phone screen kept lighting up beside him.

To be in the top four, just one more win in the semi-finals, and he would be able to secure a spot as an Intergalactic Exchange Student... Qiao Sang closed his eyes, his consciousness entering the Beast Taming Codex.
