After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer - Chapter 141

Chapter 141: Chapter 123 Competition

When the battle ended, the studio of the Fog City Daily program fell into a brief silence.

Including the two guests who had just confidently predicted the outcome.

The result of the fight was like a powerful slap in their faces.

“Battles are always full of miracles,” the guest on the left said without changing his expression.

The guest on the right echoed, “That’s right, you never know what the outcome will be until the last moment.”

“Shan City First High School and Azure Dragon Eighth High School brought us a thrilling and exciting performance, let’s congratulate Azure Dragon Eighth High School for their victory.”

…

In the audience, Xue Jinbao watched the end of the fight with satisfaction.

There was nothing more gratifying than seeing a talent he had discovered himself come to the fore.

This is a student from my school!

Xue Jinbao even wanted to stand up and boast loudly.

But a calm mindset kept him firmly in his seat; he was past the age of impulsiveness.

Only when he occasionally heard the exclamations of other audience members did a smile involuntarily creep onto his lips.

…

Yue Qianyuan sat in the rest area, feeling conflicted.

He had once joked with Chen Xing, but now that joke had become reality, leaving him somewhat incredulous.

His gaze was complex as he watched the battle that had just ended on the screen, his eyes a bit glazed over.

Although he was a reserve member of the school team, he didn’t have the qualifications to participate in the college cup competition this year, not even to remain a reserve team member.

Because the internal competition at Dragon Capital Star School was really fierce.

Even within the school team, the competition was very clear. There were more than ten reserve players alone, but only those five would actually make it to the competition.

Yet while he was still waiting for a chance to play, someone else had already led the team to climb ranks, reaching the top sixty-four; they would be facing off against Dragon Capital Star School tomorrow?

In another part of the rest area, several official members of the Dragon Capital Star School team were looking at the screen on the television.

“I thought our opponent would be Shan City First High School, but I didn’t expect them to lose just like that. Seems like Shan City First High School is not up to par either.”

“They made a tactical error, not expecting the opponent’s Beast Taming to pull off that move… It’s strange, is it a talent or a passive?”

“It should be a passive, but that’s all there is to it. His Beast Taming’s Energy Level and strength are here, posing no great threat.”

A teammate next to them chuckled, “We should thank Shan City First High School for forcing his last resort. Now he shouldn’t be a threat anymore.”

After all, Chen Xing’s last resort had been exposed.

“By the way, I remember a teacher went there a while ago, didn’t he?”

Yue Qianyuan, sitting not far away, was staring at the screen in a daze.

Others might still speculate whether Chen Xing had any hidden strengths, but having confronted Chen Xing last semester, he knew the strength of Chen Xing’s first Beast Taming well.

He guessed that Chen Xing’s second Beast Taming was cultivated in advance, which is why it was stronger than the first one.

This wasn’t unheard of; some people train two Beast Tamings at the same time, first signing an easy-to-evolve one, and then a stronger combatant for the second.

The teacher who had visited Shu State arrived.

Yue Qianyuan, sitting beside, watched the teacher who had gone to Shu State with him giving intelligence to the senior students of the school team.

He felt somewhat conflicted for a moment.

“That’s right, I’ve seen his Beast Taming with my own eyes; it’s not a threat!”

“Although Yue Qianyuan lost, I have seen the performance of his Salty Bay Crocodile; it was about Energy Level thirty, and in just a few months, at most forty Energy Level.”

“That Sìxiàng Shényīng must be his strongest Beast Taming.”

In the rest area of Dragon Capital Star School, an official team member suddenly suggested to Yue Qianyuan, “Yue Qianyuan, why don’t you invite him out for a meal?”

This obvious intention to gather intelligence instinctively displeased Yue Qianyuan.

He frowned and responded, “Use this method to gather intelligence? I can’t do such a thing.”

The teammate’s mouth curved up mockingly, and with a provoking tone, he said, “What? You don’t even want to make a contribution to the team?”

Upon hearing this, Yue Qianyuan’s gaze turned sharp instantly. He glared at the other person and coldly spat out two words, “Idiot!”

The teammate’s face changed abruptly and he was about to react angrily but was stopped by the captain Situ Yan in time.

“Alright, if Qianyuan doesn’t want to do it, let it be,” Situ Yan said, turning to look at Yue Qianyuan with a touch of understanding in his voice.

“You don’t want to do this to a friend; I can understand. We need to discuss tactics, so you can step out for a while.”

Yue Qianyuan nodded and got up to leave the rest area.

“Alright, you’ve all seen their previous matches and also asked Teacher Qin.”

“Understood, Captain!”

Several people said in unison.

Situ Yan picked up the remote and turned off the TV that was playing the previous battle footage of Azure Dragon Eighth Middle School, “They could have gone further, but it’s a pity they met us too early. Let’s show them the strength of our Dragon Star City. After all, this is our home turf.”

“Hahaha, Captain, I can’t wait any longer,” a teammate with dyed red hair laughed wildly.

“Captain, please set up the tactics for tomorrow. Crushing these so-called genius juniors is the most thrilling thing!”

He took out his phone, wanted to ask Chen Xing to meet, but hesitated for a moment, and Yue Qianyuan decided not to send the message.

He was a student of Dragon Star City, and now it was a special time.

Better wait until after the match to contact him.

…

Coming down from the command stand, Tong Xuhua, who had just fought, was still in a daze, his steps unsteady, “We actually won.”

The battle was won so easily?

He turned to look at Chen Xing, who was at the very end of the team.

Chen Xing responded with a smile.

Wu Ju took a deep breath, his face lit up with the excitement of victory, “We won, the junior’s Beast Taming is incredible. But the next match… might be tough.”

Good news, they had beaten a strong team.

Bad news, their next opponent was even stronger.

And it could be said they were the current crowd favorites, playing entirely on their home ground.

At the entrance of the back corridor, where Kuang Shiyi was waiting to greet the four heroes, he overheard their conversation and said softly, “Don’t think too much, just enjoy the victory. The next match is tomorrow’s business.”

“Yes, Coach!”

Returning to Dragon Pavilion Residence, Chen Xing contacted his mentor.

“Mentor, are you interested in an opportunity to make money?”

A question mark came from the other end of the phone.

The next second, a video call came through.

Chen Xing answered the call, seeing his mentor’s teasing and playful expression on the screen.

“What, running out of money?”

Chen Xing smiled wryly, “When have I ever not been?”

“Spill it, what’s the money-making opportunity? Let me guess, it’s not betting, is it?”

Chen Xing’s eyes widened, looking incredulously at his mentor.

Seeing Chen Xing’s reaction, Han Yuning found it amusing, “What? Did I guess right?”

“You can’t bet as a contestant, so I’ll place the bets for you. How much do you need to buy?”

Chen Xing hesitated, “Mentor, how much do you think I should bet?”

“Let me go ask,” said Han Yuning.

Han Yuning looked serious at the screen, seemingly asking someone else for advice.

A moment later, Han Yuning spoke to Chen Xing, “I got it. The odds for your Azure Dragon Eighth Middle School to win tomorrow are 1:2.94.”

“That low?”

“Not low at all, you’ve already proved yourselves as a strong team by winning against Shancity First Middle School. There’s no such thing as a huge upset. To the general audience, you may not be as famous as the other team, but in the eyes of professional assessors, your strength actually ranks pretty high.”

“Besides, that’s just for winning the match. You can go further and bet on the exact time of victory. If you bet on winning within 3 minutes, the odds are 6.81.”

With a somewhat teasing look, Han Yuning turned to Chen Xing, “Give your mentor some inside info, can you finish within three minutes? If you can end it within three minutes, I’ll lend you twenty million.”

Chen Xing pondered, three minutes…

He wasn’t certain he could finish within three minutes, “Mentor, I need to check the detailed intel on the opponent before I can be sure.”

If the other side had a flying Beast Taming, then there was definitely no hope within three minutes.

“Dragon Star City’s information, you say? Hold on,” Han Yuning replied.

A moment later, a file was sent over.

Chen Xing scanned through the Beast Taming information of the opposing team.

Chen Xing decisively said, “Mentor, bet on me winning within three minutes.”
