Chapter 1639

Chapter 624 Then Let’s Improve… (Two-in-One)

Michaela wasted no time, quickly opening her phone and turning on navigation.

Josang suddenly remembered something and said,

“Wait, let me tell Jian Yin Suo Suo first.”

She then picked up her phone, preparing to make contact.

But just then, ripples appeared on the phone screen, cracks appeared, and then opened, transforming into a pair of silver eyes. “

Always there…” Josang thought inwardly, then smiled and asked,

“Did you hear everything?”

The silver eyes blinked in confusion, and at the same time, blue subtitles appeared like a projection:

【Heared what?】

“You don’t know?” Josang was taken aback. “Then how did you arrive so conveniently?”

She had thought Jian Yin Suo Suo Suo appeared because it knew she was looking for it.

The silver eyes blinked again, and then the blue subtitles changed:

【I found out that the forces at Yantian University said they’re going to keep monitoring you.】

Yantian University… Josang fell into deep thought.

Come to think of it, among the contestants Yantian University sent this time, there was a Beastmaster under 100 years old who had participated in the Interstellar Cup…

Keep monitoring me? Do they consider me an opponent that much…?

Josang felt a strange sense of pride.

Sometimes, being watched by a formidable opponent is a form of recognition of one’s own strength.

“It’s not just Yantian University, there are other forces too.” Qiao Sang gathered her thoughts and said, “But don’t worry, Teacher Michaela and I are going to the secret realm for training. I wanted to talk to you about this.”

She paused, then asked,

“Do you want to come with us?”

Jian Yin Suo Suo was an alien pet that came to Blue Star to help her gather information. It was unfamiliar with the area, and now that it had almost finished collecting the data, she felt it wouldn’t be good to leave it alone outside in the secret realm. Its silver

eyes showed a touch of gratitude, but quickly hardened, blinking. [No, I have to stay outside and gather information.] “Haven’t you already gathered it?” Qiao Sang asked. Before the subtitles could change, Michaela looked over, glanced at them, and said, “New information about the contestants is gathered every day.” Michaela calmly added, “Just like other forces watching you, they find new information every day. It’s right for the Inspector to stay outside and gather information.” Her silver eyes blinked, her gaze serious, and the subtitles changed accordingly: 【That’s right, I will definitely gather the most comprehensive information about the opponent.】 Inspector… Josang was somewhat moved and said, “Then I’ll trouble you.” Her silver eyes curved, and the subtitles changed: 【No trouble at all, as long as you win the match.】 This is the hardest part… Josang said solemnly, “I will do my best.” Her silver eyes curved even more deeply, then closed and disappeared. The phone screen returned to its original state. At this moment, Michaela had finished navigating. She placed the phone in front of Penjami and said, “Let’s go, to here.” “Penjami.” Penjami glanced at the navigation, her eyes glowing blue. The surrounding barriers disappeared. Immediately afterward, the group of figures vanished from their spot. … The entrance to Secret Realm 601. A dark entrance, a sinister aura emanating from it. Looking around, the space outside was vast, with stalls arranged haphazardly, appearing scattered. Each stall owner had a ghost-type pet beast beside them, and while customers occasionally stopped at their stalls, the owners didn’t offer much in the way of hospitality. Secret Realm 601 was a B-rank secret realm, and the stall owners who dared to set up stalls here were all skilled beast tamers, some even B-rank, and most of the items on their stalls were recently obtained from Secret Realm 601. This was the scene that greeted Qiao Sang upon her arrival. “Xunxun~” 99% of the items on the stalls were related to ghost-type pet beasts. Little Xunbao sensed something as soon as it appeared, its eyes suddenly lighting up, excitedly preparing to float towards the stalls. Qiao Sang saw its intention and stopped it: “What do you want to buy? We’ll buy it after we finish training.” “Xunxun…” Little Xunbao stopped, showing an “okay” expression. Michaela glanced at the items on the stall and said, “These things are nothing special; you should be able to find them all in the secret realm.” With that, she walked towards the entrance. Josang followed with Ya Bao and the others. After their Beast Taming Badges were checked, under the guard’s extremely respectful attitude, Josang, Michaela, and Ya Bao stepped into the secret realm. The dark passage rippled rapidly as if a stone had been thrown into it, but the barrier quickly returned to calm. Once Josang and the others had completely disappeared, a man with black hair and black eyes, appearing to be in his thirties, who had been examining a black bead at a stall, quickly put it down and walked towards the secret realm. The stall owner, seeing this, was first taken aback, then grumbled, “Who is this guy? He’s been looking for half an hour and isn’t buying anything. What a waste of my time!” At the entrance to the secret realm, the man, who looked to be in his thirties, handed over his Beast Taming Badge. After the guard checked it, he respectfully allowed him to enter. After the man disappeared into the entrance of the secret realm, one of the guards couldn’t help but say, “What day is it today? Why are there so many super-powerful beast tamers?” Another guard replied, “Compared to the previous two, that one doesn’t count, does he?” “That’s true.” The guard who had spoken earlier stopped gossiping and continued to diligently guard the place. … Inside Secret Realm 601. Qiao Sang’s vision went black for a moment, and when the light returned, she found herself in a dense forest where all the trees were black.

Within sight, rows of black trees stood silently, their bark as dark as ink, devoid of any green. Their intertwined branches stretched overhead, forming a vast black net that completely blocked out the sunlight.

The ground was covered with blackened, withered leaves; the air was damp and cold, and all was silent, the atmosphere filled with deathly stillness and gloom, reminiscent of a night scene from a horror movie, sending chills down one’s spine.

“Xia Xia…”

Xia Bao, startled by the sudden change in the surroundings, instinctively huddled closer to her Beastmaster.

“Xun Xun!”

Little Xun Bao, sensing the eerie atmosphere, was excited, waving its paws at the air.

“Ting Ting?”

Ting Bao looked puzzled and called out, as if asking, “Boss, what are you doing?”

Before Little Xun Bao could answer, Qiao Sang said in a deep voice,

“Be careful, there are ghost-type pets all around.”

She now possessed a high level of spiritual vision, clearly seeing various ghost-type pets floating in the air and trees in all directions.

These ghost-type pets stared at the scene with curiosity, hostility, or fear.

Without exception, they all kept their eyes glued to the spot, showing no intention of leaving.

“Tingting…”

Tingbao, hearing its Beastmaster’s words, looked around, its expression wary.

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao waved enthusiastically to the surrounding ghost-type pets, calling out nonchalantly, indicating that there was nothing to be afraid of; these were just little guys.

Then, it grinned at the ghost-type pet in the direction it was waving, revealing two rows of exceptionally white teeth.

At this moment, a ghost-type pet, only about ten centimeters long, cowered fearfully beside a ghost-type pet that looked the same but was twice its size, calling out:

“Lianlian…”

How scary, a tooth is talking…

“Lianlian.”

The larger ghost-type pet hugged it, comforting it.

Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, it’s not a tooth, it’s just dark-skinned.

Little Xunbao’s expression and entire body suddenly froze.

“Qingqing! Qingqing!”

Qingbao burst into laughter, clutching its stomach.

“Xunxun…”

Little Xunbao lowered its paw, pouted, and showed a dissatisfied expression. Then, it seemed to remember something, its eyes lit up, and it circulated its energy.

The next second, dazzling golden armor appeared around it, turning its entire body into a shimmering golden light.

It had always worn armor made of ancient ghost gold, except during competitions, but it had always kept it hidden.

The surrounding ghost-type pets, seeing this, covered their eyes with their paws, looking as if they had been blinded by the light.

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao, seeing this, was satisfied and confident, puffing

out its chest. “Don’t show your armor,” Qiao Sang said. “It’s too conspicuous, it will attract more ghost-type pets, making training difficult later.”

“Xunxun…”

Little Xunbao, hearing this, dejectedly hid its armor.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Bao cried out, indicating that it had nothing to fear, it would beat up any that came its way!

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao’s eyes lit up again, revealing its armor and radiating golden light.

Qiao Sang glanced at it.

“Xunxun…”

Little Xunbao sensed its Beastmaster’s gaze and silently concealed its armor.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Bao looked at its Beastmaster and eagerly barked.

Training, training!

Qiao Sang glanced at the surrounding Ghost-type pets and asked,

“Teacher, should we deal with these Ghost-type pets?”

Battling wild pets could also serve as training, and most importantly, it could add points.

Of course, she didn’t say this aloud.

“There’s no need. Battling them won’t have a training effect.” Michaela scanned the surroundings and said, “Let’s find a place where we can train first.”

After saying that, she looked at Penjami and said,

“Mimi, sense it.”

“Pen Pen.” Penjami nodded, its eyes glowing blue.

Soon, a three-dimensional map of the entire secret realm appeared in its mind.

It seems I need to find an opportunity to take Xia Bao out to find wild pets to battle… Qiao Sang thought to herself.

In a flash of thought, Penjami cried out,

“Penjami!”

Found it.

She then channeled her energy.

Immediately, the group vanished from their spot.

…

On the deathly, black, eerie land, Josang, Michaela, and Yabo appeared out of thin air.

A chilling, oppressive aura suddenly swept over them.

Josang sensed something and looked down at the ground.

The instant he looked, Michaela calmly spoke:

“Pressure.”

“Penjami!”

Penjami cried out, her aura surging outwards, and a terrifying pressure descended, engulfing the entire black land.

The ground trembled violently, and the dark earth cracked open, spreading wildly in all directions.

“Blackie!!!”

A ghost-type pet, about forty meters tall and entirely black, screamed as it was jolted out of the ground.

Black Nightmare, a Ghost-type Royal-level pet, prefers to live underground filled with yin energy. If any creature steps onto its land, it will silently absorb the creature’s life force, rapidly shortening its lifespan… Qiao Sang’s mind flashed with information

about the pet that had been thrown out. She wasn’t particularly surprised that a pet had been thrown out; she had just sensed something unusual about the ground, but Teacher Michaela had acted faster.

In a flash, the domineering aura around Michaela vanished.

Black Nightmare’s eyes were closed, and it collapsed unconscious on the shattered ground.

“Throw it far away,” Michaela said.

“Puff!” Penjami called out, her eyes glowing blue, and disappeared from the spot, taking the unconscious Black Nightmare with her.

“Let’s begin,” Michaela laughed.

…

At the same time.

In an environment filled with black plants, a black-haired, black-eyed man asked with dissatisfaction,

“Still haven’t found her?”

“Mianmian.” A ghost-type pet wearing a white mask and mostly purple shook its head.

“Useless.” The man complained.

The ghost-type pet wearing the white mask showed no change in expression, as if it were used to it.

“We must find Josan.” The man said sternly, “This is our mission.”

The club had paid a heavy price to predict Josan’s training location. If he and she entered the same secret realm and still couldn’t find each other, he would definitely be demoted when they returned.

“Mianmian.”

The ghost-type pet wearing the white mask nodded.

…

“Bang!”

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

Various explosions rang out on the black earth.

Pets within a radius of several kilometers heard the terrifying noise and fled in terror.

“Tingting!”

Tingbao roared from high in the sky.

As the roar rang out, a surge of immense energy converged upwards, rapidly forming a purple dragon-shaped energy phantom identical to itself.

Soon, the illusory dragon-shaped energy became clearer, coalescing into a solid form, and with destructive power, it swooped down towards Xiaoxunbao below.

“Xunxun~”

Just as the dragon-shaped energy was about three meters away from Xiaoxunbao, Xiaoxunbao picked its nose and vanished from the spot.

“Boom!”

The immense dragon-type energy crashed to the ground, bursting forth with blinding light, a deafening roar echoing across the surrounding area, shattering the ground.

In the air, Qiao Sang, Michaela, and Penjame watched this scene unfold.

“I didn’t expect Tingbao to awaken Dragon Soul Impact,” Michaela remarked. “It’s just a pity his level is still too low. Otherwise, with just this move, he could become a decent combatant.”

Dragon Soul Impact is nothing; Tingbao even awakened Thunder Dragon Descent… Qiao Sang laughed, “Tingbao’s evolution speed is already fast enough.”

After saying that, she thought of something, sighed, and said,

“It’s just a pity that Tingbao’s Ancient Dragon Will can’t allow Ya Bao and the others to transfer skills and traits that their own attributes don’t have. Otherwise, their chances of winning in this competition would be much greater.”

“Is it confirmed that it can’t be transferred?” Michaela asked.

Qiao Sang hummed in agreement and said, “I had Tingbao and Ya Bao and the others test it one by one. It’s probably because the level of the Ancient Dragon Will is too low.”

Michaela thought for a moment and said, “Then let’s increase the level of the Ancient Dragon Will.”
