Beast Tamer: The pet is just to help me build a bond

Chapter 144: Leading the Way [Subscription Request]

On April 4, the first round of the National High School Students Beast Taming Competition began.

The order of the match arrangements is the number used in the draw. Qinghe No. 36 Middle School is numbered and was scheduled for the afternoon.

In the morning, all the major universities in the upper half of the group made their appearances. Strong universities such as Peking University High School and Magic University High School easily defeated their opponents and successfully advanced.

"Three pets were seriously injured, Hengshui advanced with difficulty, Guangxia was unfortunately eliminated!"

“5:2, the defending champions made a strong attack and easily defeated Shanbei High School!”

"5:2, Jingda High School is not willing to be outdone. Apart from Demon University High School, is there any other school that can force them to show their true strength?"

"..."

The morning competition had just ended, and the forum of the national competition official website was already bustling with noise. Various hot posts about the competition became popular one after another, and major portals also specially opened a special column for the national competition to attract a wave of traffic.

After lunch, Chen Wen stayed in the dormitory and read the hot posts.

“This traffic is really gratifying!”

After sighing, Chen Wen put down his phone, closed his eyes and began to accumulate internal strength.

As a "power bank", he has to fully charge it before the game so that Po can replenish his status in time.

At 1:10 p.m., Chen Wen opened his eyes on time.

After a moment, Yang Wenhan's voice reached his ears.

"Get ready, hurry out and gather!"

Soon after Yang Wenhan finished speaking, the doors opened quickly, and then everyone who had already packed up walked out of their rooms wearing the same school uniform.

Although Lu Dong asked everyone to take a nap, everyone was too excited to sleep and just lay in bed.

After Chen Wen and others gathered in the corridor, they quickly went to the hall to meet Lu Dong.

Lu Dong glanced at everyone and nodded, "Let's go!"

As he said that, he led everyone out of the hall and went to the parking lot to gather for the bus.

Their destination was Arena No. 8 of the not-too-distant Competitive Center.

In fact, it only takes about ten minutes to walk from the Beastmaster’s House, but for the convenience of management, all teachers and students have to take a bus.

A few minutes later, the bus arrived at the competition center. It was not yet 1:.

Compared with the Shudu Sports Center, the standard arena of the Kyoto Sports Center has been further upgraded in terms of luxury. Both the host and the guests have their own lounges, which are equipped with sofas, benches, massage chairs, TVs, air conditioners and refrigerators.

Arriving at the visiting team's lounge, Lu Dong glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "Just sit anywhere and do whatever you need to do..."

As he spoke, he demonstratively took out a bottle of ice water from the refrigerator and took a sip.

He Xiong followed suit and opened the refrigerator. He glanced at it and said, "It's just ordinary drinks. It should at least be filled with primary nutrient solution, right?"

"How can such a good thing happen? If we do this, won't we lose a lot of money in the national competition?"

As he spoke, Chen Wen asked He Xiong to hand him a bottle of mineral water.

After everyone sat down, Lu Dong moistened his throat and said, "I won't say much about Qianyang No. 1 Middle School's information. What I have collected now is their information from the provincial preliminaries half a year ago... What I want to say is that there are no weak teams in the national competition!"

As Lu Dong spoke, his stern gaze was fixed on Chen Wen.

Chen Wen said aggrievedly: "Teacher Lu, I take them very seriously and I don't have any pride or carelessness at all..."

"Ah--"

Lu Dong sneered for the first time, and then said, "There is no arrogance at all. Who asked me to take the lead last night?"

After hearing what Lu Dong said, everyone in the room couldn't help but turn their eyes to Chen Wen.

He Xiong even said: "Teacher Lu, don't agree to him, this guy wants to have it all to himself. If he goes on the court, we won't have a chance to make a move, which is unfair to us..."

Lu Dong's face turned even darker. Chen Wen wanted to be in the limelight, and He Xiong also looked down on Qianyang No. 1 Middle School?
He said seriously: "Qianyang No. 1 Middle School is the overlord of Qian Province, just like our Shudu No. 7 Middle School in Xichuan Province, which has gathered almost all the talented new generation of local beastmasters.

In the last session, they were eliminated in the round of 32, but they also defeated three main players from Kyoto University, so their strength is not weak.

Facing such an opponent, how dare you be careless? "

"I just want to get a good start for No. 1 Middle School..."

Chen Wen lied. He really wanted to win five games in a row in the national competition. That would definitely attract a lot of attention and earn him a lot of points.

"Ah--"

"hehe!"

"..."

Before Chen Wen finished his words, several cold laughs were heard in the lounge.

It was clear that not only Lu Dong didn't believe it, but everyone else didn't believe it either. "Why don't you believe me?"

Chen Wen sighed in disappointment, feeling that his hope of taking the lead was slim.

Just as he was about to accept the arrangement to lead the charge, Lu Dong suddenly said, "Since you want to lead the charge so much, I'll give you this opportunity, but if you lose..."

Chen Wen quickly said: "Absolutely not, I promise!"

After a pause, he added: "Even if we can't get five in a row, at least we can get three in a row."

Although he didn't know why Lu Dong changed his mind, how could Chen Wen let go of this opportunity?
Lu Dong snorted and said, "I hope you are not bragging."

Then he looked at Yang Wenhan and said, "Wenhan, please hold the fort."

"it is good!"

Yang Wenhan nodded.

Compared with Chen Wen, he is less selfish and can accept all arrangements made by Lu Dong.

Hearing Yang Wenhan nod decisively, Lu Dong's expression lightened up a bit, and then he said, "The arrangements for the others remain unchanged!"

As he spoke, he looked at He Xiong and the others and said, "Everyone, get ready to go on stage. Review the information I sent to you yesterday."

"Okay, Mr. Lu!"

"understood!"

"..."

Everyone nodded in unison.

Then, Lu Dong called Chen Wen aside and said, "Do you know why I asked you to lead the charge?"

Chen Wen shook his head.

"After all, these are incomplete intelligence from half a year ago, so I want you to stay in charge and see their cards clearly before taking any action."

Lu Dong first explained why he asked Chen Wen to take the lead, and then continued: "Now I let you take the lead, mainly because I found a difficult person in Qianyang No. 1 Middle School."

"Who?"

"Zhu Li, Zhu Li who has contracted the Demonic Sound Bat."

"Magic Sound Bat?"

Chen Wen thought for a moment and asked doubtfully, "I remember you said yesterday that the Magic Sound Bat has mastered sonic detection, can predict pet attacks, and combined with powerful flying skills, is very difficult to deal with, but is this okay?"

Sonic wave detection can only detect whether the pet has accumulated spiritual energy, but it cannot predict how it releases spiritual energy or how it attacks.

It just means that it is difficult to defeat the Yin Demon Sound Bat, but this does not affect the normal battle.

"It's not a sonic detection..." Lu Dong shook his head and said, "When I looked through her data on the Guizhou Province Qualifiers Finals, I found that her opponent had a serious negative state after winning, but there was no sign in the battle that she was injured by the magic sound bat.

So I guess its magic bat has mastered the curse magic sound."

"Cursed magic sound?" Chen Wen asked doubtfully.

Lu Dong explained: "It's actually an infrasonic attack, which makes the opponent dizzy and nauseous through resonance, and even damages the internal organs.

This is difficult for pets below the Elite Extraordinary level to defend against, and the solution is to win quickly or get away quickly."

Rely on flying skills and sonic detection to fight, and then use cursed magic sound to cause damage.

Chen Wen thought about it and found that the magic sound bat was indeed tricky.

After finishing his speculation, Lu Dong revealed the reason why he changed the roster.

"Among your pets, Abao has the strongest physique and is also capable of dealing with flying pets, so it's best for you to deal with Zhu Li."

Chen Wen heard this and asked in confusion: "How can we be sure that she is the one leading the charge from Qianyang?"

Lu Dong said: "She may not be the first one to go into battle, but she will definitely be among the first three. Casting the curse magic sound requires a lot of spiritual energy, so it is impossible to let her hold the fort. We have to let her go out early to cause damage."

As he said this, he looked at Chen Wen.

"Since you want to lead the charge, avoid any accidents. Don't let your teammates' pets go to the hospital while you're happy."

Chen Wen said seriously, "Absolutely not."

Soon, the staff came to the lounge to remind us.

"Ready to enter."

Following the staff, everyone walked towards the contestant channel.

After a while, bright lights fell on them and noisy noises appeared in their ears.
