Chapter 68: Fearless Eyewear Shop

A moment later, the audience erupted into deafening cheers.

"How did he win?!"

"Firefang, I love you!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"Jiao, give me Firefang!"

"Jiao, you're so cool!"

"Big upset! Control Scale Oddity has fallen! The final contestant is Jiao!" The commentator exclaimed, "This is definitely the most exciting match in the Bai Xin Tournament! At the last moment, Firefang actually activated the Blaze ability! Unfortunately, Control Scale Oddity fell too quickly! We didn't get to see Firefang in Blaze mode!"

Hou Xiangyu: "..."

Did he not consider that I can hear this too!

Jiao stood there, dazed, looking at Firefang, who was covered in wounds but exuding a more formidable aura than ever before.

Seeming to sense his trainer's gaze, Firefang turned his head, and the fierce look in his eyes softened instantly, forming two crescent moons.

Then the flames on his body dissipated, and he closed his eyes, collapsing.

"Firefang!" Jiao snapped back to reality and quickly ran over to pick him up.

...

Pet Beast Arena.

Medical Room.

A green pet beast with two antennae on its head, each ending in a spherical shape, clenched its fists and focused its energy.

Its antennae glowed green.

From this glow, a green powder spread out and fell onto the lying Firefang.

Two minutes later, Firefang opened his wet eyes.

"Firefang is fine now, but since he just activated the Blaze ability, it's better for him to rest a bit more. Don't do any pre-match warm-ups," the female pet beast doctor said after checking him.

"Fire!"

Firefang looked in the direction of the doctor's voice and immediately jumped over happily.

Jiao opened his arms to catch him and said gratefully, "Thank you, Doctor. I understand."

"That's my job. I watched the match just now, it was very exciting. You should do your best in the final," the doctor said.

"We will," Jiao smiled.

"Fire!"

Firefang responded loudly.

After seeing that Firefang was fine, Jiao had the time to recall the final moments of the match.

Blaze, ability.

Each pet beast has a corresponding ability.

Most abilities are beneficial to the pet beast, but a few are detrimental or have no practical use.

For example, Moon Grass.

It sleeps whenever it rains.

If it appears in a match, you just need to send out a pet beast with the Rain Dance skill, and you can win without a fight.

Like the Octocoral they encountered earlier.

Its ability is to adjust the nano-crystals on its skin to achieve a camouflage effect when it touches an object, but this is an auxiliary ability.

Firefang's Blaze ability, on the other hand, enhances his attack power, making it absolutely beneficial to him.

Once injured to a certain extent, with severe physical strain, Blaze is triggered.

Then, like on drugs, the power and speed of fire-type skills increase several times over.

It's definitely an ability that all fire-type pet beasts want to have.

However, this ability is not always triggered.

Moon Grass sleeping in the rain is a mandatory ability, while Firefang's Blaze ability needs to be mastered to be activated.

Generally, fire-type pet beasts that can trigger Blaze 100% and have mastered it are formidable opponents.

Because they need to be injured to an extremely severe degree to practice triggering it.

Although Firefang has the Blaze ability,

Jiao thinks it's best to take it slowly to master it.

There are still about 50 minutes before the final.

Jiao, holding Firefang, prepared to head to the audience seats to watch the pet beast performance.

On the way from the medical room to the audience seats, Firefang saw a glass that reflected his image and paused, then jumped out of Jiao's arms.

He came to the glass and looked at himself, then panicked.

"Fire?"

"Firefire!"

"Fire!"

Where are his sunglasses!

Jiao took out a broken red triangular sunglasses from his bag and showed it to him, saying solemnly, "The match was too intense, they broke."

Firefang stood there in shock, as if struck by lightning. Then he took the broken sunglasses with his paw and cried out in pain, "Fire!!!"

This cry was even more pitiful than when he was thrown down by Control Scale Oddity's psychic control.

"Out with the old, in with the new. I'll buy you a few more pairs tonight, you can choose any you like," Jiao comforted him.

Firefang immediately stopped, his eyes brimming with tears, and nodded.

At this moment, a voice came from nearby, "I happen to have a pair of sunglasses I can give to Firefang."

Jiao turned his head.

A woman in her mid-20s with black hair and delicate features, who didn't seem threatening, was walking towards them.

"Hello, my name is Song Yuan," she said.

"Hello," Jiao replied politely.

"I called you yesterday, but you seemed to think it was a harassment call and hung up," Song Yuan smiled, not at all embarrassed.

Jiao thought for a moment and said, "Was it the one with the last four digits 1772, which I blocked after several calls?"

Song Yuan: "..."

"Yes, that was me."

"Sorry, I thought it was a scam call," Jiao said apologetically.

"It's okay, it's good to be cautious. I wouldn't answer calls from strangers either. I'm here because..." Song Yuan's words were interrupted by her phone ringing.

"Sorry, I need to take this call," she said.

"It's okay," Jiao replied.

He noticed that the number on her phone screen was not labeled.

"Hello, who is this?" Song Yuan answered the call.

Jiao: "..."

A minute later.

"Sorry, let's continue. Where were we?" Song Yuan asked after hanging up.

"You were saying you wouldn't answer calls from strangers," Jiao replied.

Song Yuan looked embarrassed, coughed, and explained, "We small business owners have to answer every call, or we might miss something important."

Jiao nodded in understanding.

"I'm here because I want to ask Firefang to endorse the sunglasses in my online store," Song Yuan said, "The way Firefang looks with sunglasses is exactly what I want. The money is negotiable. If you're willing, we can exchange contact information and discuss it after the final."

Originally, she just wanted Firefang to do a live stream.

But Jiao and Firefang's performance today made her believe that this was definitely a promising pet beast.

Jiao was silent for a moment and asked, "Can I ask what your online store is called?"

Song Yuan quickly replied, "Fearless Eyewear Shop."

Jiao took out his phone and searched.

Indeed, the store existed.

The legal representative's name matched.

The phone number matched the one he blocked yesterday.

It doesn't seem to be a scam...

"Alright, let's discuss it after the final," Jiao put down his phone and smiled broadly.

"Sure, I heard you talking to Firefang just now. I happen to have a pair of sunglasses from our store. Could Firefang wear them during the final if possible?" Song Yuan happily took out a pair of sunglasses from her bag and handed them over.

Jiao looked at the sunglasses and fell silent.

Firefang shook his head vigorously after looking at them.

He has taste too, you know!
