The commentator also realized this.

“I suddenly remembered that we haven’t really seen a Steel Falcon in this tournament.” The commentator said.

The young white man responded, “Steel Falcons are rarely contracted nowadays. For a contestant at this age to form a contract with one, I have to say, that takes courage.”

Qiao Sang ignored their conversation. She was pleased and quickly analyzed the situation.

Gangbao's reaction speed and defense were even better than she had expected. Even though the Muscle Flaunting Bug was a level higher, it couldn’t break through her defenses in one go.

Would it be like other Fighting-type beasts, with weak points at the head and neck?

As soon as the thought crossed her mind, she rejected it.

No, the Muscle Flaunting Bug had such a sharp, pointed mouth, at least twenty centimeters long. If the Steel Falcon got too close to its head, the bug wouldn’t even need to move; one stab from that mouth could be dangerous.

Even though Gangbao had solid defense, she had a strong feeling that the Muscle Flaunting Bug’s mouth was a dangerous weapon. Without more information, it was best not to take unnecessary risks…

As Qiao Sang’s thoughts raced, Gangbao's eyes suddenly turned black, her mind running rapidly.

“Those eyes?”

The commentator exclaimed, “Is the Steel Falcon using a Dark-type skill?!”

The moment he spoke, Gangbao locked onto the Muscle Flaunting Bug’s wings and flapped her own wings forcefully.

Several air blades, formed from compressed air, slashed toward that spot.

Of course! The wings! Qiao Sang suddenly realized.

The Muscle Flaunting Bug was also a Flying-type beast, and for most Flying-type creatures, the wings were both their source of power and their most vulnerable part!

After all, the wings were the key to their mobility!

Now that she had figured it out, Qiao Sang remained calm on the surface but felt a spark of excitement inside.

“Air Blades!” At that moment, Kash gave a command.

The Muscle Flaunting Bug flapped its wings and flew high, dodging the incoming air blades before sending a downward gust.

A dozen large air blades, at least twice the size of the ones Gangbao had just used, were instantly launched.

Gangbao swiftly maneuvered through the air, dodging them.

“Sonic Punch!” Kash issued another command while Gangbao was evading.

“Muscle!”

The Muscle Flaunting Bug’s wings flapped, its muscles tensed, and it swung its fists, which were now wrapped in glowing white energy, at Gangbao.

Left and right were both blocked by air blades, and the Muscle Bug was attacking straight ahead.

Gangbao instinctively wanted to dodge upward, but suddenly, she seemed to sense something. She lifted her head and locked eyes with the human on the command platform who had just become her Beast master. ṜΑNОꞖËŝ

Qiao Sang gave a small shake of her head.

Gangbao turned serious, focusing on the opponent in front of her.

She didn’t move.

One second later, Qiao Sang shouted, “Dodge!”

“Gang!”

Gangbao flapped her wings and shot straight up.

Boom!

The Muscle Flaunting Bug’s attack collided with its own air blades, causing an explosive impact.

“Now!” Qiao Sang commanded.

“Gang!”

Gangbao spread her wings, which instantly turned silver like sharp blades.

Without hesitation, she dived straight into the shockwave.

Everyone saw the gleaming silver blades slice through the Muscle Flaunting Bug’s wings.

“Muscle!!”

The Muscle Flaunting Bug let out a painful cry and plummeted from the sky.

Without needing further instruction, Gangbao dove down, her blade-like wings slashing twice more at the bug’s wings.

The Muscle Flaunting Bug crashed hard onto the ground.

“Muscle Flaunting Bug! Get up!” Kash, unwilling to accept the outcome, shouted with a dark expression.

“Musc…le…”

Hearing its Beast master’s voice, the Muscle Bug trembled, trying to stand. But with its wings too badly injured, its body couldn’t coordinate properly, and it collapsed again.

This time, its eyes shut.

Gangbao's eyes returned to their usual red hue, and she looked strangely at the human who had just become her Beast master.

Qiao Sang met her gaze and grinned.

The massive virtual screen behind them updated the match results:

[Kash vs. Qiao Sang, 0:2]

At that moment, the audience erupted into chaos.

“Kash! You idiot! You worthless trash! I never want to see you again!”

“Useless piece of garbage! Give me back my savings!”

“I’ve had enough! You lost two matches in a row! Kash, what the hell are you doing?!”

Amidst the curses, the commentator spoke with excitement:

“Looks like we have an exceptional contestant in this tournament. If the previous match showed that she trained her Steel Falcon to have excellent body control, then this match proved that she has a sharp battle sense! At her age, such a keen awareness of combat is rare!”

“Indeed.” The young white man agreed.

“The timing of the Steel Falcon’s dodge was absolutely perfect. If it had been even a second too early or too late, it wouldn’t have worked. Using the Muscle Flaunting Bug’s own air blades against it… even I didn’t think of that.”

“If the Steel Falcon didn’t have such a bad reputation, I’d consider contracting one myself.” The commentator joked.

On the field.

Kash recalled his defeated Muscle Flaunting Bug into its Beast Codex and walked off the command platform with a grim expression.

Qiao Sang beckoned Gangbao with a finger.

Gangbao flew over without hesitation.

Qiao Sang picked up Yabao and started walking down, with Gangbao following beside her.

A tournament staff member hesitated for a moment before stepping forward.

“Miss Qiao Sang, aren’t you continuing?”

“No.” Qiao Sang shook her head.

She had read about the tournament format while waiting earlier. Winners could either stay and defend their position or leave. The one with the most victories at the end of the day would be crowned the Arena Champion.

Qiao Sang had no interest in being the Arena Champion.

Her main reason for coming was to test the Strengthening Oil and Gangbao's combat abilities.

As for battle points, after these two matches, she realized it was more worthwhile to fight trainers at her own level or even stronger ones.

Moreover, it wasn’t just Gangbao that needed battle points, Yabao and the others needed them too. In an E-rank Beast master tournament, while high-level beasts did appear occasionally, they weren’t common. Fighting lower-level beasts wouldn’t earn her many points.

Now that she had tested Gangbao's combat abilities, this tournament wasn’t worth staying in.

Qiao Sang left without hesitation, carrying Yabao.

Just as she reached the exit, a voice called out:

“Miss Qiao Sang, you forgot to collect your prize money.”
