947. Chapter 942 Opening Ceremony (Two in One)
“This is Zhongkong Radio and Television Station. Audiences, the much-anticipated regional competition has officially kicked off today. As the regional competition is about to begin, there is a traffic jam outside the venue. A large number of beast taming fans may miss the opening ceremony, but it doesn’t matter. Zhongkong Radio and Television Station, we will broadcast the opening ceremony of the regional competition live for you here.”
“It is 7:30 pm on September 1st, Zhongkong time. This is Zhongyu Society. We are now in the Tianan City Yukong Beast Taming Hall, which is also the largest beast taming competition venue in our Zhongkong region. It covers an area of 39 hectares in the air and can accommodate approximately 172,000 spectators at the same time. This year’s regional competition will be held here, and we will witness it with you.”
“The opening ceremony of the regional competition is about to begin. All the beast fans are cheering for the players they support. We can see banners everywhere in the audience, and everyone’s face is printed with the pictures of the players or pets they support. Who will win the preliminary round of this year’s regional competition? Our beast news will report the whole process.”
The giant virtual screens on both sides of the road where neon lights gathered played live reports of the regional competition from various channels.
Flying pets wearing light sunglasses flew and stopped in the sky.
The closer to the Sky Beast Taming Hall, the more crowded the crowd became. Within a kilometer of the Sky Beast Taming Hall, it was almost difficult to move a step.
Qiao Sang, Liu Yao and Mikaela were waiting under a building six kilometers away.
Mikaela picked up her phone and checked the time, saying, “I’ll go over first. It will probably take a long time to queue up. I bought the ticket, and I’m afraid it will be too late if I don’t go now.”
She didn’t give too many instructions. She was very relieved about the preliminary round.
“Okay.” Qiao Sang nodded.
Mikaela glanced at the air next to her.
The next second, she disappeared out of thin air.
Liu Yao looked at the giant virtual screen not far above, reporting the regional competition, and said with emotion: “I think the last time I watched the regional competition was 11 years ago.”
“Why didn’t you watch it later?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Too busy.” Liu Yao paused, and continued: “Another reason is that I couldn’t get a ticket.”
He laughed: “It’s thanks to you that I can watch the regional competition this time.”
Qiao Sang smiled and said: “I will try to let you watch more games.”
Contestants can bring two family members to watch. When a contestant is eliminated, this benefit will naturally be cancelled.
“Ya!”
Liu Yao was about to say something, at this time, Yabao shouted excitedly in front of him.
Qiao Sang looked forward and saw Tong Huaxiao flying towards this side from a high altitude with his mother on his back.
He couldn’t help but greeted happily: “Mom! Tong Huaxiao!”
“Tonghua!” Tong Huaxiao heard the call, accelerated, and flew to the front and stopped.
Ye Xiangting rolled off Tonghuaxiao and first greeted Liu Yao politely: “Vice Principal.”
“Qiao Sang’s mother.” Liu Yao responded.
Ye Xiangting looked at Qiao Sang, her eyes full of pride and smiles: “You’ve grown taller.”
After saying that, she looked at the pet in her daughter’s arms and was stunned.
Does Yabao look like this?
“Ya!”
Yabao saw his mother, a beastmaster, looking at him and called out enthusiastically.
“Is this, Yabao?” Ye Xiangting hesitated.
“Well, it has evolved.” Qiao Sang dropped a bombshell in a calm tone.
Ye Xiangting: “!!!”
Remember that Yabao’s previous form was a general-level pet. After evolving, wouldn’t it be a king-level pet? !
“Tonghua…”
Tonghuaxiao looked at Yabao, in doubt.
Then, it noticed Gangbao, who was quiet on the side, and its eyes widened instantly.
You evolved too?
“Steel Sword.”
Gangbao understood the meaning of its expression and nodded.
Tong Huaxiao: “!!!”
Without waiting for his mother to speak again, Qiao Sang said, “Let’s go first, the opening ceremony is about to begin.”
“Then let’s go quickly.” Ye Xiangting knew that things were important and urgent, so she had to suppress the desire to ask immediately.
“Little Xunbao.” Qiao Sang said.
“Xunxun~” Little Xunbao appeared, his eyes glowing blue.
The next second, the group disappeared from the spot and appeared in the contestant channel of the Sky Beast Taming Hall.
Qiao Sang brought Little Xunbao here to check the specific inspection location yesterday.
In order to ensure that the contestants can enter the venue efficiently and smoothly, the official specially sent a mechanical pet beast that specializes in identity inspection. Just a scan can confirm the identity.
At this time, a black-haired man with a crew cut was conducting an inspection in front of the channel. He heard the movement, turned his head, and looked at Liu Yao and Ye Xiangting for a while, then retracted his eyes, picked up the backpack on the security checker next to him, and walked in under the guidance of a staff member.
Qiao Sang handed the beast badge to the mechanical pet beast with a work badge.
At this time, Ye Xiangting was looking at the surrounding environment and did not notice the color of the beast badge.
The mechanical pet took the beast badge and turned it on.
A virtual screen of about ten inches appeared immediately, and the relevant information was clearly recorded on it.
The mechanical pet immediately looked at Qiao Sang with green eyes and began to scan.
At the same time, several staff members next to them looked at each other in surprise, and they all understood what they wanted to express on each other’s faces:
Among these three people, the contestant turned out to be this child?
“Indeed.”
The mechanical pet’s eyes returned to their original black color, handed the beast badge back, and then called to the staff next to him.
“I’ll lead the way for you.” One of the staff members hurriedly walked up and began to lead the way.
It’s only the opening ceremony now, and the contestants and their families can watch in the same area, so there is no need to separate them.
Under the guidance of the staff, the three came to the front of the audience seats in the beast hall.
The whole venue was full of people, and it was full of heads.
The area where Qiao Sang sat was basically filled with contestants and their families.
The people sitting in this area looked over when they saw someone coming, and when they saw that it was someone they didn’t know, they looked away without interest.
Ye Xiangting looked around, feeling excited but also a little reserved.
Although she had watched the regional competition before, she was always an ordinary spectator and only watched the contestants from a distance.
It was not like now, where there were contestants all around.
Although they were not from the Yuhua region, some well-known contestants from the Zhongkong region were also well-known throughout the country. She glanced around and saw several professional beastmasters that she had only seen on TV.
When she thought of her daughter competing with these people in the same arena, her heartbeat accelerated unconsciously, and she felt indescribably proud and nervous.
“Ah! Cao Lidong!” A scream came from the audience not far away.
A handsome man who looked to be in his twenties next to Qiao Sang turned his head and waved in the direction of the sound with a smile.
Cao Lidong, 31 years old, is a C-level beastmaster. He once participated in a regional competition and attracted a wave of fans because of his handsome appearance.
Although professional beastmasters are mainly based on strength, a good-looking appearance will indeed add to their popularity.
Qiao Sang moved his ears and listened to the shouts from the audience, and found that no one called his name.
It seems that no one recognized that I was Qingqingni’s beastmaster…
“When did Yabao evolve?” Ye Xiangting asked in a low voice.
The environment and atmosphere of the regional competition made her previous shock about Yabao’s evolution lessened a lot.
“Just a few days ago.” Qiao Sang replied: “In the last secret realm mission.”
Ye Xiangting digested it for a while and asked again: “How did it evolve?”
“It absorbed the Molten Bright Fire Seed and evolved in the sun.” Qiao Sang said concisely.
Liu Yao listened at the side and tried to control his expression.
He still couldn’t stand Qiao Sang talking about this matter so lightly.
Molten Bright Fire Seed? I haven’t heard of it… Ye Xiangting really wanted her daughter to tell her in detail what kind of resources could allow Yabao to evolve to the king level in such a short time, but due to the current environment, it was not easy to ask too much details.
Although she was not a professional beastmaster, she knew that many professional beastmasters had received feedback and had excellent hearing, and could often hear other people’s privacy.
Many beastmasters in regional competitions would hide their strength before the competition. She didn’t want others to know about her daughter’s situation and find out her strength through her conversation with her daughter.
At this time, the whole audience suddenly cheered enthusiastically.
At the same time, a tall figure wearing a black short-sleeved shirt came to the front row of this area and sat down.
Unlike Qiao Sang when he sat down earlier, almost all the contestants and their families in the entire area looked at this tall figure.
“This seems to be Chen Tianqin.” Ye Xiangting lowered her voice and said in surprise.
Liu Yao couldn’t help but look at the other person twice more.
Chen Tianqin, 33 years old, a B-class beastmaster, participated in the regional competition in Yuhua District when he was 29 years old. At that time, he was only a C-class beastmaster, but he won the top 32. Last year, he participated in the regional competition in Zhongkong District. Not only was he a B-class beastmaster, but he also won the top eight. It is said that he has been valued by the national team and is being trained… Qiao Sang’s mind was filled with relevant information.
Because of the age limit in the regional competition, C-class beastmasters actually accounted for the majority.
Although there are not many B-class beastmasters, there are still some in their thirties and forties in places like Zhongkong District where talents are emerging. Chen Tianqin was able to stand out among so many B-class beastmasters and win the top eight not long after becoming a B-class beastmaster, which is enough to show that he has good talent and extraordinary strength.
Suddenly, all the lights dimmed.
The audience followed and fell silent.
In a moment, a blue beam of light flew down from the sky to the field, stopped in the air in the middle of the field, and revealed two figures.
At the same time as the two figures appeared, several beams of fluorescent light shone on them from all directions.
The woman with black curly hair and a stylish makeup held the microphone, stood on the three-meter-tall blue bird pet, and said loudly:
“Dear guests, audiences across the country, good evening!”
“I am honored to be here as the host of this wonderful beast taming feast. Today, we will witness the grand opening of this year’s Zhongkong District Regional Competition!”
“In this regional competition, we are fortunate to welcome the 432 most talented beast tamers from Zhongkong District to participate, and even beast tamers from other regions have joined.”
“This is a fierce contest, a battle of strength, tactics and perseverance.”
“Every beast tamer has done his best for this, completing a year-long arduous task to come here, and they will present us with the highest level of beast taming battle feast in the region!”
“You will be the witnesses and participants of this feast, and your enthusiasm will ignite the entire competition venue. Let’s cheer! Welcome the opening of this feast!”
The whole venue burst into deafening applause.
Papapapa… Qiao Sang applauded passionately.
Passionate! Too passionate! These words made her want to fight right away!
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao shouted excitedly.
“Xun Xun!”
Little Xun Bao appeared excitedly.
Lu Bao poked his head out of his backpack and looked at the field.
Gang Bao looked around at the audience who were all applauding enthusiastically, his eyes flickering.
Qing Bao did not show up, but the wind he turned into blew faster than usual, and it could be seen that he was also a little excited by these words.
The few fluorescent lights concentrated in the field disappeared.
The blue bird pet and the host seemed to have disappeared.
Then, the passionate BGM sounded.
The lights in the field were dim.
In the sky, countless bird pets wearing fluorescent equipment gathered from all directions.
Each bird pet is of a different species, and there are as many as a thousand of them.
Following the rhythm of the BGM, they turned into beams at a very fast speed, constantly crisscrossing in the sky, like meteors of different colors interweaving in irregular movements, bringing people a sensory feast with great visual enjoyment.
So many flying pets were moving at such a fast speed, but none of them collided with each other. These flying pets must have been trained for a long time… Qiao Sang was amazed, and took out his mobile phone to take pictures continuously.
“Xunxun…”
Xiao Xunbao showed an amazed expression, and silently took out his mobile phone and turned on the camera function.
Just when Qiao Sang thought that the performance would end, the fluorescence of all the bird pets in the sky suddenly turned into a uniform fluorescent blue.
They quickly intertwined and combined into a super giant bird pet that almost filled the sky above the entire venue.
The Xuanwu, a legendary pet, symbolizes auspiciousness. It is said that people who see the Xuanwu will have good luck in everything… Qiao Sang’s mind flashed the information of the bird pets formed in the sky.
As the thought flashed, all the bird pets flapped their wings downwards.
In an instant, countless star energies, like golden gems, densely attacked the entire venue below.
When in mid-air, all the star energies suddenly exploded and turned into dots of starlight that sprinkled on the audience.
The dreamy scene made Ye Xiangting, who was recording the video, so amazed that she put down her phone unconsciously and looked up at the stars scattered all over the sky.
So beautiful…
I used to watch the opening ceremony of the regional competition on TV, but it turns out that watching it live is so different…
In the following time, various pets from the hollow area came on stage to perform.
Among them, flying pets were the majority.
After a full hour and a half, the host stood on the blue bird pet and flew back to the stage, saying:
“Guests! Audiences across the country! We have finished enjoying the opening ceremony, and now let’s take a look at the list of all the contestants this year!”
