Free Web NovelChu Kuangsheng broke the awkward silence, looking at the two teenagers not far away.
“Are those the two kids the Fu Family just pushed in? They’re quite interesting.”
“Hahaha, indeed interesting.”
The others echoed his sentiments.
It was rare to see such 'down-to-earth' individuals among the second and third generations of prominent families nowadays.
“Fu Yifan and Mingxi are good friends. Mingxi gave him the Qingkong Bone Dragon Egg she acquired at the Ten Thousand Dynasties Auction.
It successfully hatched a few days ago, and its talent is directly approaching SS, with a high chance of ancestral reversion.
I heard the Sheng Yun Auction House is regretting it so much «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» their intestines are turning green!”
A Dragon-type pet beast with S+ talent, and a rare Qingkong Bone Dragon at that, would have been more than enough to be the finale of Sheng Yun’s annual auction.
However, Sheng Yun put it up in a less-noticed auction, and the final transaction price was only 600 million.
How could they not regret it?
After Zhang Ruoruo spilled the beans, even Chu Kuangsheng was a bit curious.
“It can really revert to its ancestor?”
Zhang Ruoruo actually nodded: “According to Sun Dayan, the chances are quite high, because the newly hatched Qingkong Bone Dragon awakened a Demon-type skill, Dark Ambush.”
“I checked the data; the ancient Demon-type Dragon also possessed Dark Ambush.”
Their eyes lit up.
“So Mingxi also missed out, didn’t she? Wouldn’t it be like adding wings to a tiger if she had contracted it herself?”
Chu Kuangsheng shook his head: “Even if she knew, she probably wouldn't contract that Qingkong Bone Dragon Egg. Her contracted pet beasts are all summoned by Colorful. This Xiao Zaizi has a bit of metaphysics about her.”
“True, that’s become her trademark.”
“However, this kid from the Fu Family really got lucky. Even if the Qingkong Bone Dragon can’t eventually evolve into the Black Qi Bone Dragon Emperor, this kid still made a huge profit.”
“Absolutely.”
Fu Yifan was unaware that he was being watched by the big shots and continued to cheer for Mingxi.
Mingxi had already defeated 12 people by then.
She didn't just let Golden Yuanbao or Little Silver Flower fight continuously; instead, she rotated the three of them based on their energy consumption.
This allowed them to recover their energy to the maximum extent.
Because Golden Yuanbao had a self-recovery trait and the highest total energy, it participated in the most battles.
Of course, Mingxi also made adjustments according to the opponent's situation.
For example, when encountering a pet beast with a type advantage, or an opponent that Golden Yuanbao, Silver Flower, or Lan Yue were interested in, whoever was suitable would naturally go.
So the battle speed was relatively fast.
“Next!”
“It’s my turn next!”
“...”
“Student Chen Mo challenges failed, Student Mingxi successfully defended her position!”
“Next!”
“It’s my turn! Let me, Luo Pu, cut off your path to the heavens!”

“Student Mingxi wins!”
...
Mingxi checked the status of Lan Yue, who had just finished her battle.
Her energy was less than half.
Little Silver Flower was in a similar situation, and she had already used one recharge opportunity.
However, Golden Yuanbao, who had participated in the most battles, was in the best condition, with about a third of his energy remaining.
And only 2 hours and 45 minutes had passed.
She had defeated a total of 79 opponents, which was an average of about two minutes per opponent.
“Next.”
The next person to come up was an acquaintance, Jian Lian.
Jian Lian’s pet beasts were the Advanced Level Lightning-type pet beast Pat Ailei and the Intermediate Water-type pet beast Bubble Fish.
In this gauntlet battle, everyone was using their strongest pet beasts, and Jian Lian should be no exception.
Therefore, the probability of Pat Ailei appearing was 100%, and Pat Ailei was very strong, and Jian Lian was equally strong!
If Golden Yuanbao went, he would crush her in minutes.
But.
Mingxi looked at Lan Yue, who was still standing on the battle stage, and could feel her anticipation and eagerness.
Although Lan Yue had an advantage in type, she was clearly weaker than Pat Ailei in terms of energy and attack power.
Moreover, she was not in her peak condition now.
Mingxi thought for a moment and asked:
“Lan Yue, do you want to continue?”
In last week's High Platform Competition, Jian Lian had challenged her twice.
At that time, she chose 2v2 challenges.
The first time, Lan Yue faced Pat Ailei at the start and lost.
The second time, Lan Yue, after defeating Bubble Fish, fought the injured Pat Ailei again and still lost.
So Lan Yue actually knew very well who her opponent would be if she continued to participate in this battle.
Lan Yue was a bit conflicted.
She looked at her Beast Tamers, “Ice Extremity?”
What if she lost again this time, wouldn't her Beast Tamers be unable to become a Throne Student?
Mingxi smiled, “Silly, if we lose, we lose. It’s not like we can’t start over.”
She accepted the instructors' modification of the High Position Competition rules not to gain more performance points or credits.
But to give Golden Yuanbao, Silver Flower, and Lan Yue more actual combat opportunities.
Even though they could fight countless opponents in the practical combat simulation room.
But simulation is just simulation.
At the very least, it lacked the pressure and tension of live competition, and the effect would inevitably be greatly reduced.
Moreover, actual combat could also increase bonus duration.
“Ice Extremity.”
The experiences and insights gained during this period, Mingxi’s love and nurturing, and the companionship of Golden Yuanbao and Little Silver Flower, had made Lan Yue much more confident and cheerful.
She knew that her Beast Tamers truly didn't care.
So she wanted to go on stage! She wanted to go on stage!
Mingxi nodded in satisfaction.
Very good.
Losing is not scary.
What's scary is not having the courage to face failure!
If you lose, just win it back!
“Student Jian Lian challenges Throne Student Mingxi, 1V1 mode, both Beast Tamers summon their pet beasts!”
On the battle stage, Lan Yue and Pat Ailei had already stood facing each other.
Pat Ailei’s appearance was quite beautiful, somewhat resembling a moose.
Its limbs and torso were covered by a layer of dark purple skin.
Its face was covered with lightning patterns, as if woven from countless electric currents.
Its limbs were slightly short relative to its body size, but this did not affect its movement speed.
On the contrary, this Pat Ailei possessed the Super Flash trait, making its movement speed extremely fast.
It was precisely because of Pat Ailei's trait that they lost in the previous two battles.
If Lan Yue could keep up with its speed, or find a way to slow it down, then victory was not impossible for Lan Yue.
Although the battle had already begun, neither Mingxi nor Jian Lian spoke.
Neither of the two pet beasts moved.
It seemed both sides were probing.
The stands, however, became lively again.
“Ming Shen is so brave, actually letting Ice Extremity Cat continue to battle, and the opponent is Pat Ailei, who previously crushed Ice Extremity Cat. Is she really not worried about losing at all?”
“I remember Ice Extremity Cat has already fought 7 battles, and all of her opponents were Advanced Level pet beasts stronger than her.
For an Intermediate pet beast, this record is simply a miracle.
However, her energy should be almost depleted now, and she's facing Pat Ailei, who is far superior in strength.
This battle, it’s uncertain.”
“Heh heh, it’s not uncertain, she’s definitely going to lose!”
