“Echo Bat, close your eyes!”
Just as the female teacher announced the start of the battle, Chen Dongjun was the first to issue a command.
Qiao Sang raised an eyebrow, it seemed that her classmate had come up with a strategy to counter Xiao Xunbao Ghost after observing a dozen battles.
Echo Bat, a dual-attribute Pet Beast of the Poison and Flight Types, was capable of releasing ultrasonic waves for echolocation, enabling it to navigate in the dark with ease.
For Treasure-seeking Ghost, who needed eye contact to effectively cast hypnotism, closing its eyes meant nothing, not to mention Mystique Level hypnotism, would be of any use.
However, the Treasure-seeking Ghost wasn’t limited to just this trick…
The Echo Bat obediently closed its eyes.
“Keep it that way and release ultrasonic waves!” Chen Dongjun shouted.
Echo Bat flapped its wings and opened its mouth wide, pushing forward an energy fluctuation like a wave, and right as it was about to make contact with the Treasure-seeking Ghost, the Treasure-seeking Ghost vanished.
In the audience seats, many spectators began to comment.
“Not bad, it looks like someone is finally going to break the 5-second threshold.”
“Are ultrasonic waves effective against a Spectral-type Pet Beast that has stealthed?”
“Not sure, I only know that ultrasonic waves can induce a state of confusion in the opponent.”
“The books say that sonar object detection works by using sound waves that bounce back from solid objects. The Pet Beast’s ability to locate things is based on ultrasonic echo-location capabilities in its ears, and since Spectral-type Pet Beasts have a Penetration feature, I guess ultrasonic waves should be useless against the Treasure-seeking Ghost, right?”
“That depends on the proficiency of the ultrasonic waves. Didn’t you watch the competition on Lian Ke’s channel recently? Mao Yin detected the position of a Black Eyed Doll using her Soundwave Moth’s ultrasonic waves.”
“The traits of Pet Beasts have levels as well, probably the Soundwave Moth’s ultrasonic wave proficiency was high enough, and that Black Eyed Doll’s Penetration trait level was too low.”
“Aren’t you curious why Qiao Sang hasn’t given any commands in this situation?”
As soon as this was mentioned, people nearby suddenly felt a sting.
Was there even a need to ask? Clearly, it was because the level of combat from others was simply not on the same level as theirs.
Those who had just become Beast Tamers like them would command their Pet Beasts at every step during a battle, whereas experienced Beast Tamers wouldn’t do the same; it was clear that Qiao Sang was moving towards the direction of becoming a Professional Beast Tamer.
During major competitions, Professional Beast Tamers let their Pet Beasts respond based on their own combat instincts, and they would only issue commands at critical moments.
What did this mean? It meant Qiao Sang thought the current situation didn’t require her to utter any commands at all!
On the field, Chen Dongjun, watching the spot where Treasure-seeking Ghost had disappeared, panicked, but then reassured himself: It was alright, as long as the Treasure-seeking Ghost launched an attack, he could find its position!
Ultrasonic waves could sense the position of all solid matter through echoes, not just the Pet Beast itself, but also any tactile Skill.
Being a basic-level Pet Beast, the abilities of the Treasure-seeking Ghost were limited to moves like Shadow Ball and Lick.
The launch position of Shadow Ball could be sensed with ultrasonic waves, and even if the Treasure-seeking Ghost stealthily moved closer to use Lick, it would have to become corporeal the moment it extended its tongue. If he could seize that instant to counterattack, his chances of victory were still high.
And if, retreating ten thousand steps, the Treasure-seeking Ghost’s reaction speed was fast enough to dodge Echo Bat’s attacks, as long as Echo Bat used ultrasonic waves for sensing and dodged the Treasure-seeking Ghost’s attacks, ultimately it would still come down to whose energy would run out first.
As various thoughts flashed through Chen Dongjun’s mind, the Treasure-seeking Ghost eerily appeared right behind the Echo Bat.
“Echo Bat, behind you!” Chen Dongjun exclaimed in alarm.
“Yinyin!”
Startled, Echo Bat quickly turned around and with a forceful flap of its wings, two Air Blades surged toward the Treasure-seeking Ghost.
Yet the strike fell through unexpectedly.
“Xun Xun~”
The Treasure-seeking Ghost, witnessing the Echo Bat’s shocked reaction, covered its mouth and snickered, completely unconcerned about the two incoming Air Blades.
Just as the Air Blades were about to hit, the Treasure-seeking Ghost disappeared once again.
“Quick, use ultrasonic waves!” Chen Dongjun reminded.
Before Echo Bat could release the ultrasonic waves, it suddenly felt something poke its wings.
Immediately after, they heard their own Beast Tamer roar, “Above! Dodge quickly!”
“Yinyin!”
The Echo Bat shuddered with fright and hastily flapped its wings to change direction.
“Xun Xun~” Xiao Xunbao covered its mouth and giggled, then disappeared from the arena once again.
In the front row, Principal Wang Weidou softly exclaimed.
“Why does this Treasure-seeking Ghost seem abnormally fast?”
The Vice Principal, Liu Yao, couldn’t be bothered to attend to him. He had been overly sweet when begging him to come to the school, professing his great attention to the national campus league.
Yet, after a month of the school team’s training, he didn’t even understand the basic information of the team members.
Was that a quick reaction? That was Teleportation!

Seeing that Liu Yao ignored him, Wang Weidou wasn’t offended. He stroked his beardless chin and continued to muse, “I feel like this Treasure-seeking Ghost is a bit foolish. It should have seized the moment to attack directly when the Echo Bat failed to react, but it merely poked the Echo Bat with its finger.”
“It’s playing,” Liu Yao said, giving him a glance.
Wang Weidou: “…”
On the field, Qiao Sang, seeing Xiao Xunbao continuously changing directions and teasing the Echo Bat, finally couldn’t help but say, “Xiao Xunbao, stop playing.”
Time is points! Qiao Sang screamed inwardly.
“Xun~”
The hidden Xiao Xunbao responded with a sound.
The next second, it suddenly appeared on the ground.
And the place where it appeared was precisely where the shadow of the Echo Bat was.
As everyone was still astonished by the abnormal speed of Xiao Xunbao, it extended a short toe, and the corresponding short toe reflection on the ground distorted a bit. Immediately after, the shadow stretched sharply until it connected with the shadow of the Echo Bat above.
“Echo Bat, Air Blade!” Seeing the Treasure-seeking Ghost appear, Chen Dongjun couldn’t help but look up at the Echo Bat in mid-air and excitedly shout, “It’s about three meters ahead directly below you!”
“Yin… Yin!!”
However, as soon as the Echo Bat opened its mouth, before it could even start to gather energy, it was dragged down forcefully by some unknown power and slammed hard into the ground.
“Yin…” The Echo Bat didn’t fall from this, but propped itself up with effort.
“Echo Bat, hang in there!” Chen Dongjun was momentarily bewildered, but quickly realized they were still in combat and promptly encouraged the Echo Bat.
“Yinyin…”
The Echo Bat, having tumbled due to the lack of gravity, had already opened its eyes. It saw the Treasure-seeking Ghost not far in front of it, grinning at it, then its erect short toe moved slightly.
“Yinyin!!!”
The Echo Bat let out an earth-shattering scream.
Everyone watched the Echo Bat involuntarily swallow, rotating 360 degrees non-stop in mid-air.
Quickly, the Echo Bat’s screams came to an abrupt halt.
“Xun~”
Xiao Xunbao, seeing its opponent silent, put down its toe, and the connected shadow on the ground also separated.
“Bang!”
The Echo Bat crashed down heavily, not making any sound. It was knocked out cold…
The arena fell silent.
Watching the seemingly frozen crowd, Qiao Sang spoke up:
“Next.”
