57: Chapter 57 Tomorrow we'll give them a big one.
For two consecutive days, Yue Yun's luck buff had never ceased.
Lu Chaoyang's dark circles under his eyes became increasingly obvious, and he lay on the ground, exhausted alongside his Pet Beast, the Fate-Weaving Spider, as if they had been drained dry.
The effect of the luck buff was indeed significant.
Yue Yun not only successfully digested the remaining Spirit Medicine, but Miao Sang also absorbed the essence of the Life Medicine completely.
Both had made new progress compared to the second round of the competition.
"What kind of monster are you exactly?"
Lu Chaoyang looked at Yue Yun with some shock.
At the same time, he felt a bit envious, because the contestants in the third round would encounter an even more powerful Yue Yun.
He had walked through the rain, so naturally, he wanted to tear down others' umbrellas.
Why not cause trouble for the subsequent contestants?
Regarding Lu Chaoyang's assistance, Yue Yun was very grateful: "If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have been so smooth these past two days. Thank you so much!"
"Don't mention it."
Lu Chaoyang waved his hand, not intending to take credit: "This is just a transaction between Mo Yu and me; he has already paid the reward."
The crystallization spinning device of the Golden Silk Matriarch Spider might not be very significant to other spider-type Pet Beasts, but for the Fate-Weaving Spider, which lacked attack power, it was a qualitative leap.
His strength would improve significantly because of this material.
This transaction could be considered a win-win.
After a few pleasantries, Lu Chaoyang left the hotel.
"Eh, Lu Chaoyang left?"
Xu Qingfang came up from downstairs carrying a late-night snack.
Not seeing Lu Chaoyang, he handed both portions of the snack to Yue Yun: "Here, you can finish them anyway."
Yue Yun was overjoyed at the sight.
He tore open the packaging and wolfed it down, while Xu Qingfang talked about running into Su Lixia and her family when he went downstairs to get the snack.
"I just saw Chairman Su of the Jianghai City Su Group downstairs, who is Su Lixia's father. I didn't expect him and Su Lixia's younger brother to come to Nanyuan City to cheer as well."
He took out a vial of medicine and handed it to Yue Yun: "This is the Low Grade Spirit Ascension Medicine that Su Lixia asked me to give you. It can assist ordinary Beast Tamers in breaking through star levels; it's perfect for you."
Upon hearing this, Yue Yun took it with great gratitude.
This Low Grade Spirit Ascension Medicine was only the size of an oral liquid vial.
The energy it contained could help a Beast Tamer break through shackles, making the full contract power in Yue Yun's body stir.
He couldn't wait to drink the medicine in one gulp.
Under the blessing of the luck buff, Yue Yun's contract power churned with the push of the medicinal liquid, expanding from the inside out.
Before long, his Aura broke through the shackles and suddenly rose.
In the blink of an eye, his whole person underwent a change.
"So fast?"
Xu Qingfang was a bit surprised, but thinking of the other's diligence every day, he admired him from the bottom of his heart: "Is this the result of hard work and sweat? Damn it, you're really something!"
He truly envied the success Yue Yun had earned with sweat.
Unlike himself, who could only digest medicine during the day and unknowingly broke through to a Two-Star Beast Tamer in his sleep at night, without enjoying the joy of promotion.
Miao Sang, which was sleeping soundly on the bed, suddenly opened its eyes.
Its plump body remained soft, and its naive appearance possessed no lethality, but its Aura underwent a heaven-shaking change with Yue Yun's Breakthrough, emerging with terrifying power.
Its orange-bright fur, coated with orange-yellow stripes, became increasingly vivid, and an earth-yellow light mixed with blood-red emerged from its body.
Xu Qingfang was not surprised by this.
It was inevitable that a Beast Tamer's upgrade would strengthen their Pet Beast, and it also had a certain probability of allowing the Pet Beast to learn new skills.
And this strange light was the symbol of Miao Sang learning a new skill!
Boom!
Yue Yun's gradually calming Aura climbed again, and an illusory health bar appeared out of thin air, instantly breaking through the ten-meter mark and stretching to a terrifying length of nearly fifteen meters.
Even Xu Qingfang couldn't help but take half a step back in fear.
"Is this thing really human?"
Under Xu Qingfang's whispered grumbling, Yue Yun gradually gained the upper hand during the Breakthrough and slowly opened his ink-colored eyes.
His health bar also began to shrink rapidly.
It plummeted from thirteen meters to ten meters.
Then it shortened to seven meters.
Five meters, three meters...
Finally, it settled at a length of 1.5 meters!
The shortening of the health bar did not weaken Yue Yun's Aura; instead, it displayed an indescribable sense of density, and the surging air pressure seemed capable of crushing everything around him.
"Is this a Two-Star Beast Tamer?"
Yue Yun clenched his fists with a look of amazement.
Xu Qingfang leaned forward to examine him: "Brother, you make it very easy for me to underestimate the enemy!"
The 1.5-meter health bar was not as shocking as before.
But when it came to strength, the current Yue Yun was on par with Xu Qingfang's Thunderwing Griffin, and perhaps even stronger due to his super-thick Life value.
Xu Qingfang asked: "What new skill did Miao Sang awaken?"
"It's Earth Origin!"
Yue Yun could not hide his excitement at this moment.
As a fixed awakened skill for the Earth Spirit Cat, Earth Origin greatly compensated for Miao Sang's shortcomings, increasing its various stats including Life and Strength.
It also transmitted its strength to Yue Yun through the Beast Taming Talent Blood-Qi Sharing, allowing him to also obtain the amplification of Earth Origin.
He could even obtain the passive skill Earth Origin!
The combination of Beast Tamer and Pet Beast.
The Fusion of Beast Taming Talent and Pet Beast skill.
The chemical reaction between the two would shock the world!
Xu Qingfang looked at Yue Yun with confusion.
Yue Yun's gaze became deep, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing an arrogant smile: "Tomorrow, I will give them something big!"
...
The next morning.
The five little ones set off from the hotel on time with the morning light.
The Beast Taming Field was already packed, and one could hear deafening applause even across the street, making one feel impassioned and stirring up boundless heroism.
The other four teams were already waiting in the contestant waiting area.
They greeted the four members of Jianghai Second Middle School, then stared intently at the light screen hanging in the air.
The bye spot flashed over the heads of the five teams.
The whole venue fell into silence, holding their breath.
"Wow, the team that got the bye is actually Nanyuan First Middle School!"
The moment the spot was fixed, the host jumped up in excitement.
It wasn't just him.
The whole venue let out a long sigh of relief, followed by an eruption of deafening applause, as well as cheers and shouts for the upcoming teams.
Jiang Hanqiu of Nanyuan First Middle School looked at everyone present.
His eyes were full of confidence, scanning the circle with arrogance yet respect, and he smiled and sighed: "It seems I can only wait for the finals to compete with you all. I'll take my leave first!"
He raised his hand to his chest and bowed to everyone.
Excluding Qinghu First Middle School where Wen Guyu was, the three teams in front of him might not be as good as their Nanyuan First Middle School, but each team had strengths that ordinary people could not match.
They were respectable and qualified opponents.
Jiang Hanqiu left the waiting area with his three team members.
The big screen also listed the two teams that were about to fight.
"Yunhe First Middle School VS Jianghai Second Middle School!"
The shouts rose again in the auditorium, and the vibration of the sound waves hitting the ground came from underfoot, as if the whole body was trembling.
Both teams turned their heads and locked eyes.
"Yo, it's old friends again!"
