The audience was in an uproar!
Zhang Xiao had lost two rounds in a row!
What was more, Zhang Xiao had sent out precious pets like the Dragon Hound and the Stone Rhinoceros. Needless to say, the Dragon Hound had the bloodline of a Beast King and the Stone Rhinoceros was a middle-rank pet that had the opposite property. The Stone Rhinoceros would reach the fourth rank as soon as it reached adulthood!
Even so, these two pets had been defeated by a cheap, low-rank Lightning Rat in a row!
"Is that a pet skill of the thunder family, the Thunder Shadow Image?"
"Good heavens. A Lightning Rat can use such an advanced pet skill?!"
"That's terrifying. That is the king of rats!"
Many students recognized the "Thunder Shadow Image" and could not help but exclaim in shock.
"Another win …"
Looking at the Lightning Rat that was bouncing back, Su Yanying felt like she was in a dream. Everything was unreal.
"Damn it!!"
Zhang Xiao was embarrassed to hear the exclamations from the audience.
In the first round, he had underestimated his opponent. In the second round, he had sent out the Stone Rhinoceros but still lost. He could only blame himself for being inferior.
A Lightning Rat had crushed him. How humiliating!
"If it weren't for the fact that the Starry Hiero Beast is still being cultivated and I didn't bring it here, I would not have let this go!" Zhang Xiao's eyes were cold as he glared at Su Yanying in the distance. He would remember this grudge for making him lose so much face!
"Next, please send out your pets for the third round," the referee announced.
The judge announced loudly. Then, he darted a look at the Lightning Rat in Su Yanying's arms. This little thing was stunning. Its talent was enviable. If nothing went wrong, the Lightning Rat's two advanced pet skills would be enough to crush low-rank pets.
"Hmm!" Zhang Xiao snorted and stepped down from the stage. He did not send out his third pet.
He admitted defeat.
He had another pet that was more powerful than the Dragon Hound as his trump card in the preliminary round. That being said, the difference between the pet and the Dragon Hound was small.
Besides, for the time being, he did not have a way to deal with the "Thunder Shadow Image" of the Lightning Rat. A head-on confrontation would only result in a lose-lose situation.
He had many more opponents. Losing one point would not be a big problem for him to pass the preliminary round. There was no need for him to fight until the end and be a stepping stone for others.
As Zhang Xiao left the stage, the audience burst into a hubbub of cheers.
However, there was a hint of heckling in the cheers.
It never occurred to anyone that they would cheer for a lowly and cheap Lightning Rat in such a solemn and grand competition. While they were amazed, they couldn't help but find it funny.
"We won …"
Seeing Zhang Xiao's back, Su Yanying was stunned. The enthusiastic cheers of the audience told her that all this was real.
She …
He didn't do anything, and he won just like that.
He had won by relying on the Lightning Rat in his arms that he was going to break the contract with.
"Thunder Slash, Thunder Shadow Image …" Su Yanying stared at the Lightning Rat that was rubbing against her chest. She felt that this was a fantasy. How could a Lightning Rat use such formidable pet skills at the same time?
Why didn't he realize that it had such a high combat talent before?
He had just been sent out for foster care for a while, and now it was as if he had become a different person. No, it should be said that he had become a different mouse.
At the thought of boarding, Su Yanying came to a sudden realization. The confusion in her eyes disappeared. She was lost in thought. Could it be that all of this had something to do with the pet store she had boarded?
But, that was just a regular pet store. That was unlikely.
…
"Today has been an eye-opener!"
"Yes, we have seen a miraculous battle."
At the audience's seats, several powerful figures were watching the battle that had just ended. They were full of amazement and smiles.
"I have heard some stories before. Some low-rank pets are very talented and can learn rare pet skills. They can even defeat advanced pets of a higher rank. I always thought that those were just nonsense. I didn't know that such a possibility existed …" The tall and sturdy man exclaimed.
The woman with fiery red hair nodded. "This Lightning Rat has two advanced pet skills. It is not a coincidence. It must have been trained by its master. I can only say that its master is a genius!"
"Is that the girl over there? Hmm, interesting. She is so confident that she didn't even give the Lightning Rat a basic enhancement. I think we haven't seen the real strength of this Lightning Rat yet. "
"Haha, you are thinking too much. That being said, it is not easy to train a low-rank Lightning Rat to this level. I am curious. If she is so capable, why didn't she train other advanced Astral Pets? Is there any special reason?"
"Vice Principal Dong, we must pay more attention to this girl."
"That's natural. Our school will never miss such a talent!"
…
…
It was getting late.
Taohuaxi Street, at the "Pixie Pet Store."
When Su Ping woke up again, it was completely dark outside. He had slept all the way until night fell.
He got up and turned on the lights. The incandescent light was a bit dazzling. Su Ping used his hand to block the light for a while. Gradually, he squinted his eyes to adjust. Then, he felt his stomach was growling.
Only then did he remember that he hadn't had lunch.
That being said, apart from the hunger, Su Ping felt his energy had returned. He was full of energy.
He looked at the time. It was past 10 o 'clock in the evening, the time when the store was usually closed.
Of course, this was not the case for other pet stores. Some stores were even open all night and two groups of people would take turns. But those were the stores with good business. Of course, the Su Ping from before would not want to stay in this small store. He was eager to get off work early so that he could go home and play games comfortably.
It was Su Ping's first time here. Naturally, he didn't want to break the rules set by the original owner. Besides, he was starving. “
He found the key, turned off the lights, and locked the door in one go.
Su Ping rode his bicycle and headed north.
Half an hour later, Su Ping arrived home.
"You're back."
Li Qingru was sitting in the living room, watching TV. She saw Su Ping coming in and changing his shoes. She turned down the volume and asked, "How's business today?"
Su Ping could tell from the look on her face that she was concerned.
"It's okay …" Su Ping answered vaguely. He couldn't tell her that he had slept the entire afternoon.
"Take it slow. Don't be discouraged. As long as you take good care of each customer's pet, you will get more and more good reviews and business will pick up."
Li Qingru was afraid that her son would be discouraged. She comforted him while teaching him. After Su Ping changed his shoes and went into the living room, Li Qingru stood up and said, "You must be hungry. I'll heat up some food for you. Or, you can eat together when your sister comes back?"
"She's not back yet?" Su Ping was surprised.
Usually, Su Lingyue would have finished eating at home. Why hadn't she come back today?
"Did you forget that your sister has a competition at school today? She'll be home late." Li Qingru said grumpily. She was aware of the relationship between the brother and sister. She felt helpless and troubled.
It would be hard to take care of the child when he grew up.
"Oh …"
Su Ping didn't seem interested. "I'm hungry. Let's eat first."
He wanted to reconcile with his sister but he couldn't make himself suffer. He was starving. He had to eat first. Besides, he didn't think she would appreciate it even if he waited for her to come back.
"Mom, I'm back."
However, as soon as Su Ping said that, the door was pulled open and Su Lingyue walked in. She glared at Su Ping. Clearly, she had heard Su Ping's words.
