Chapter 877: Chapter 746: Beast Tamer Star Competition (Two in One)_3

“Chao Su Star doesn’t have a Secret Realm, so I want you to enter a competition.”

When he said this, he paused for a moment, then continued,

“I want you to participate in a competition that runs from 6:30 P.M. to 11:30 P.M., so you don’t need to stay up late, you just need to rearrange whatever you do in the evenings.”

After hearing this, Qiao Sang asked,

“What kind of competition?”

Billet pulled out a promotional poster from the bag he was carrying and placed it on the coffee table.

Qiao Sang glanced at it: “A Beast Tamer Star Competition?”

Billet nodded slightly,

“That’s right, this competition is held annually, and it features famous stars among the Beast Tamers. They might be active in film, television, or other industries, but fortunately, they are all much older than you, experienced, and willing to spend money on their Pet Beasts. Battling them would have a training effect.”

“And rest assured, there’s an age limit for the competition, under 35 years old.”

“In the eyes of ordinary people, a Professional Beast Tamer of that age managing to train a Pet Beast to General-level would be quite an accomplishment. You won’t encounter someone who could defeat you in just a couple of moves.”

Qiao Sang hesitated,

“I don’t think I meet the registration criteria, do I?”

It’s called a Beast Tamer Star Competition, so the participants must be figures active on screen. I’m just a freshman, not to mention screen appearances, I don’t even have an account on Chao Su Star.

“Don’t worry about that,” Billet said with a smile,

“I have looked into it. Your Ghost Ring King has been in the news, been featured in promotional videos for a competition, and even had a cameo in a TV series…”

“Wait!” interrupted Qiao Sang, “How do you know about the TV series cameo?”

Billet revealed a smile,

“Our Imperial Beastmaster Academy has the best Mechanical-type Beast, and we can find any information that has appeared online. The TV series cameo by the Ghost Ring King was specifically promoted and given a close-up. You’re probably the only Beast Tamer with an Altered Ghost Ring King on the entire Chao Su Star. It wasn’t difficult to find out.”

“Xun Xun…”

At the end of his words, Xiao Xun Bao appeared beside them, waving its paws and shaking its head.

It was all because it was too outstanding.

With that, it vanished from sight.

Qiao Sang: “…”

“Bing’ai.”

The Lubao, who had been waiting, suddenly remembered something, looked up at its Beast Tamer, and called out, asking if there’s anything else or if it should go to train.

Qiao Sang looked at Lubao, “You go and train.”

Upon hearing this, Lubao swished its tail and left.

Qiao Sang turned to look at Billet again,

“Even so, I don’t think I meet the registration standards either.”

She’d heard about the Beast Tamer Star Competition; not just Chao Su Star, but Blue Star also held such competitions.

Without exception, the participating Beast Masters were all figures with fans and high click-through rates, many having become famous by participating in regional competitions.

If she were on Blue Star, with Yaobao’s and Lubao’s popularity, as well as her own fan base, maybe she could try to register, but here on Chao Su Star, she clearly didn’t qualify.

Billet said, “I’ve already registered you, and you’ve passed successfully.”

Registered and passed?

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment. That didn’t seem right!

“After all, you’re also a student at our Imperial Beast Mastery Academy,” Billet said slowly. “It’s quite easy for us to arrange for you to participate in a star competition for practice.”

Holy shit, so it was a backdoor deal… Qiao Sang got it in a second.

Well, it did feel kind of special…

“However, the official pretext is the Ghost Ring King’s promotional appearance and TV series cameo,” Billet added.

“When is the date of the competition?” Qiao Sang asked.

“It’s tomorrow,” Billet pointed to the date on the promotional poster.

How convenient… Qiao Sang looked down.

[September 13th]

…

At two o’clock in the morning.

Liu Yao dragged his tired body back to the villa.

He turned on the lights and approached the dining table to put down what he was holding.

Then, he saw several books stacked on the dining table, with a small note underneath.

Liu Yao glanced at the cover of the book on top, which was related to the materials for Energy Pills.

He paused, taking out the note and reading it; the handwriting was reasonably neat,

[Hoping this will help.]

This kid… A warm current flowed through his heart, and Liu Yao said softly,

“Take the books to the room.”

“Manifest.” The Sky Manifest Bat made a noise and picked up the books.

…

The next day.

8:05 A.M.

Yuliandun University.

Beast Taming Department, Class One.

It wasn’t impossible to rearrange the evening; I am the customer, after all. If it comes down to it, I can have the Body Tempering Worm come over after 12 A.M., maybe pay a bit extra… For the treatment, it should be possible to adjust that to the wee hours as well. After all, I’m treating incurable diseases; they’d surely be willing to wait… Qiao Sang thought while seated.

Right then, a slightly excited voice rang out in the classroom,

“Did you see the trending searches? The Beast Tamer Star Competition starts today!”

Hmm? The Beast Tamer Star Competition? That’s the competition I’m about to participate in… Qiao Sang silently turned her gaze towards the student who spoke.
