My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome
Chapter 573 - 572

Chapter 573: Chapter 572

"But the death rate of such competitions is already high, so don’t feel any pressure," Yu Xiaoyu said, trying to relieve Shao Zifeng of pressure, but her own delicate face was tightly stretched, and her slender fingers kept grasping the sofa, seemingly extremely conflicted inside.

Shao Zifeng responded, "I don’t feel pressured. Besides, can we find any information on the Bald Eagles’ team? Um... the more detailed kind."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaoyu guessed his intention. At that moment, she felt it was her duty as a teacher to act like a teacher and dispel the unrealistic thought in his mind.

Therefore, she said with a displeased face, "I know you know Wang Hao, but now is not the time to act rashly. Let’s not even talk about whether we can encounter the other team among so many; even if we do end up together, we still can’t get detailed information. They are foreigners after all. If you keep fantasizing, I will..."

"I will no longer be this team’s coach!" Yu Xiaoyu said in the fiercest tone, uttering the weakest threat, and finally glaring at him fiercely, a stubborn expression like a naive sweetheart female lead in a campus youth drama.

Shao Zifeng’s mouth twitched. Do you even remember you are a coach?

Completely lacking a teacher’s demeanor all day long.

He suddenly missed Bald Strong.

Huh?

He seemed to have always forgotten to ask for news about Bald Strong.

Back in his room, Shao Zifeng immediately charged his cellphone.

After every competition, there would always be a group of analysts who delved into various information about the competitors, and Shao Zifeng was prepared to check for relevant news.

As soon as the cellphone turned on, it started to ring.

Shao Zifeng looked at the caller ID and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Hello, Qiqi."

There was a moment of silence on the other end, followed by the busy tone of the call.

What’s going on.

Just as Shao Zifeng was about to redial, he suddenly saw a string of notification messages, and he was stunned.

"You have 258 missed calls, to avoid missing important calls...."

That’s it. That’s it.

He had seriously offended Qiqi now.

When Shao Zifeng tried to redial, the system indicated that the other party was out of the service area; she had directly blacklisted him.

After thinking it through for a while, Shao Zifeng put the matter out of his mind and began to search for specific information about the morning’s competition.

The Bald Eagles’ participant was named Deer, reportedly a substitute player.

Substitute player.

Shao Zifeng suddenly thought of a possibility: the opposite side was deliberately targeting them.

It wasn’t that they knew Wang Hao was acquainted with him, but they were indiscriminately targeting any Daxia player. That meant if someone else had gone up today, the result would probably have been similar to Wang Hao’s.

Thinking of this, he breathed hastily for a while before slowly calming himself.

Even if they were indeed retaliating, they were using the rules openly for retaliation, and even the officials could say nothing about it; they could only defeat them face-to-face in the arena.

Having clarified this, Shao Zifeng continued to look for useful information.

Online opinions about the Bald Eagles’ participant’s pet creature were varied, as a sandstorm had obscured the view at the crucial moment, leaving much to speculation. Some mentioned a kind of Element pet creature with a substitution talent, but there was no valuable information.

Having found no information, Shao Zifeng then checked the related news.

"Forwarding Condolences! In the fourth round of the National University Cup, Anhua University’s acting team leader Wang Hao was tragically killed."

Most comments expressed their mourning and grief, yet there were always some vile creatures who jumped out to disgust others, criticizing Wang Hao for his womanly compassion, calling it a failure of Daxia’s education. Reading these comments, Shao Zifeng wanted several times to tear them apart, but ultimately he restrained himself.

In the following days, the National Cup progressed to the sixth round, with only a dozen teams remaining.

Wang Hao’s death seemed to be a catalyst, making the strategies of Daxia’s participating universities increasingly vicious, which led to a sharp increase in casualties. Just yesterday, six people died, four of whom were foreign competitors.

During that period, Su City University participated in two matches, one against the South Africa Federation and the other against the South Vietnam School Alliance. In one of the defending matches, Su City University drew the defending side, and Yaya and Jingjing successively played and delivered impressive performances.

This dark horse stance, which surged forward irresistibly, sparked heated discussions among netizens, especially about the three unique pets of Shao Zifeng, which triggered widespread debates.

#WhatMutantCreaturesAreThese#

#AndWhatMutantCreaturesAreThese#

#LayingItOutFirstTimeSeeingSuchMutantCreatures#

These three topics consecutively topped the national hot search list, and every day there were a large number of active users discussing them.

While the topics were hot, they also brought quite some troubles to everyone.

For example...

"Here it comes, the Su City University’s bus is rolling towards me."

"Today is also a day I look forward to seeing Zifeng."

"Ahhhh, just separated by a car door and I can already feel that aura that’s killing me."

At the entrance for competitors at the central venue, a dense crowd tightly surrounded Su City University’s minibuses.

Yu Xiaoyu said gloomily, "Looks like we’ll have to wait for security to rescue us again. Ah, what a happy problem to have."

That was indeed true. Ever since Su City University broke into the top 64 as a dark horse, they had been inundated with interview requests from major media outlets every day. Although they were targeting Shao Zifeng, Yu Xiaoyu, as the team’s coach, unhesitatingly shielded Shao Zifeng from them.

The reason was that these major media interviews often chose nearby cha chaan teng, and Xian Xiaoyu mixed in quite a few meals.

But once the novelty wore off, she became somewhat annoyed. These last few days, she had almost developed phone phobia; whenever she heard the ringtone, her entire body tensed, and her expression became extremely tight.

Casar, Xiang Nan, and a few others showed a look of helplessness and sat back down in their seats.

"Hehe, leave it to me."

Hu Shiwu stretched his head out to look, placed his phone against the window, took a photo, and then opened Weibo to start editing.

Shao Zifeng: Thank you all for your support all this while, each one of you is the source of my strength to keep moving forward. I would really like to come down and meet you all, but there are still matches to be played today. Could you please make way for us?

After finishing the edit, Hu Shiwu checked it once more and then joyfully clicked upload.

Having done all that, Hu Shiwu shook his phone, "Done, just wait and witness the miracle."

"Three."

"Two."

"One."

As soon as the voice fell, the crowd outside indeed began to slowly disperse, quickly clearing a path.

Security staff in the distance swiftly rushed in, just in case of any accidents.

"Old Hu, awesome man," Xiang Nan grabbed Hu Shiwu’s shoulder. "Tell us, how did you do it?"

Hu Shiwu, with a grin nearly squeezing his eyes shut, shook his head and swayed playfully, "A wise man has his own clever plans."

Yu Xiaoyu urged, "Stop fooling around, get off the bus now."

As soon as the door opened, Shao Zifeng felt a pair of burning eyes looking over, and unlike the usual frenzied screaming, it was very quiet at the scene.

Shao Zifeng, somewhat unaccustomed to this, stepped out of the bus, and the moment his foot touched the ground, the surrounding young men and women suddenly shouted in unison, "Zifeng, we are the source of your path forward, we will obey, and will always support you!!!"

Shao Zifeng’s face darkened, wondering what trick they were playing now.
