Chapter 71: Name?

Qiao Sang was still in shock.

The fierce arrow fire owl that had carried her away turned and left with a stylish flair.

It could be said that it had completed its task and left, deeply hiding its achievements and fame.

Hou Xiangyu, still sitting in Zone B of the audience, looked at Qiao Sang and Wei Wenya, who had been carried up by the fierce arrow fire owl and the four-way swallow, with a dazed expression.

The award ceremony had started?

What about him?

He was at least third place, right?

Why didn't they come to carry him up?

He had no presence at all!

Was he supposed to walk up himself?!

Before he could complain much more in his mind, his body suddenly lost balance and appeared in the air.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Qiao Sang looked at Hou Xiangyu, who was carried to the stage by a strong unified owl flying in from outside, with a dazed expression.

So this is how it feels to watch someone else being carried up to the stage…

It's so embarrassing…

Qiao Sang decided.

If the organizers asked her to give a speech for winning first place, she would definitely scold them in front of everyone.

The prizes started from third place and quickly came to her.

The first prize was 200,000 Alliance coins plus a pet beast egg.

But what was handed to Qiao Sang was not a pet beast egg but an exchange voucher for a pet beast egg from the pet beast base.

The organizers were generous!

Qiao Sang then remembered that the platform had announced the first prize as a random pet beast egg.

She thought the organizers didn't announce the type of egg to add a bit of suspense, but it turned out they were letting her choose one directly from the pet beast base.

Although this exchange voucher could only be used to choose a pet beast egg worth no more than 500,000 coins, it was much better than having no choice at all.

A beast master's contract slots were limited, and each one required careful consideration.

If there were no choices due to restrictions, there was nothing she could do, but if there were choices, she would definitely choose the one she liked.

Qiao Sang's second contract target was a water, grass, or flying-type pet beast.

With this amount of money, she had many more options.

"Qiao Sang, do you have anything to say about winning first place?" the host asked.

"First, I want to thank my mother; it was her support that allowed me to contract with Firefang. Second, I want to thank Firefang, who has always been with me; without it, I wouldn't have won this competition. Finally, I want to thank the organizers…"

After the group photo session of the award ceremony, Qiao Sang called out to Sha Duo, who was taking a photo with her: "Mr. Sha Duo, I have a friend who is your fan."

…

Qiao Sang returned to the audience seats.

The final part of the Bai Xin competition was drawing five lucky winners, and Bai Yunmiao was not one of them.

"Qiao Genius, are you going to look at the pet beast egg right away or wait until the Beast Master Codex has a second page?" Bai Yunmiao asked with a smile, showing no disappointment.

"I think I'll go to the pet beast base tomorrow," Qiao Sang replied.

Bai Yunmiao wanted to ask more but saw Qiao Genius take out a piece of paper from her bag and hand it to her.

"I just got a signature from Sha Duo, here you go."

Bai Yunmiao was stunned for a moment, then took the paper and looked at it in disbelief.

A moment later.

"Ah! Qiao Genius, I love you so much!" Bai Yunmiao pounced on Qiao Sang.

"Yah!"

The Firefang dog, caught in the middle, barked.

Bai Yunmiao quickly let go, afraid that the Firefang dog might bite her.

…

A coffee shop near the Shouke Garden.

The warm, atmospheric lighting inside the shop created a cozy and peaceful atmosphere.

A pink pet beast, holding a tray with three cups of coffee, approached a table of female customers sitting by the window.

"Here you go."

It placed the coffee on the table, its long, oval, brown eyes smiling and narrowing.

"Who is this?" Song Yuan asked.

"This is my friend, Bai Yunmiao," Qiao Sang introduced.

"Hello." Bai Yunmiao put on a serious and mature face.

Qiao Sang was a bit helpless; since she gave her the signature from Sha Duo, she could clearly feel that Bai Yunmiao had elevated their friendship.

Topics they never discussed before were now being talked about non-stop.

The two of them took different buses home, and after leaving the pet beast arena a few days ago, they went their separate ways.

But this time, when they casually mentioned that she would be discussing a collaboration, Bai Yunmiao insisted on coming along, saying that people were dangerous and that she was only 15 and could easily be deceived.

"Your friend is so beautiful, it's true that beautiful people's friends are also beautiful," Song Yuan praised.

"Not really," Bai Yunmiao blushed and looked down, acting shyly.

Qiao Sang: "…"

She's so easily flattered, she's the one who's easy to deceive.

After a few pleasantries, Song Yuan got to the point.

"This is the draft contract, please take a look. If there's anything you're not satisfied with, you can let me know," Song Yuan said.

Qiao Sang took the contract and read it carefully.

Three minutes later.

"I can only sign for half a year," Qiao Sang said, looking up.

"Why? Are you not satisfied with the terms I offered?" Song Yuan frowned.

The terms she offered were already very good. Qiao Sang had won the Bai Xin competition and came in first place.

But this first place would only be a hot topic for a few days and wouldn't attract customers for long.

She would still need to promote and package Qiao Sang.

The endorsement fee of 600,000 coins per year was the price she offered based on Qiao Sang's potential and to build a good relationship.

"Because Firefang will evolve in half a year, and the contract specifies Firefang, not Emberfang. If the image that appears after half a year is not Firefang, I would be in breach of contract," Qiao Sang explained rigorously.

The sunglasses endorsement required a new popular product to be shot every quarter, and Firefang would definitely not be able to appear in the shoot after half a year.

Song Yuan: "…"

Evolving in half a year?

Who gave her this confidence…

The title of first place in the Bai Xin competition…

Firefang isn't a Cotton Worm…

For a moment, Song Yuan regretted discussing the endorsement with Qiao Sang.

Often, new beast masters, after winning a few times and achieving a little success, tend to lose touch with reality and only come to their senses after some time.

She didn't expect Qiao Sang to be one of those people.

"Half a year it is. If there are no other issues, I'll print the formal contract based on this," Song Yuan nodded.

Although she had some prejudice against Qiao Sang, she still smiled and acted as usual.

Qiao Sang, however, noticed that the other party's tone had become much lighter.

But she didn't think much of it, assuming it was because the other party was dissatisfied with her signing for only half a year.

After the contract was finalized, the three of them chatted for a bit. Then Song Yuan suddenly asked, "By the way, what's Firefang's name?"

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment and hesitated, "Name?"

Song Yuan: "…"

Bai Yunmiao turned and laughed, "She's asking what you named Firefang, but you probably haven't named it yet."

Song Yuan added, "That won't do. We need to promote it, and we can't just call it Firefang. It needs a different name to distinguish it from other Firefangs. What do you think about calling it 'Hanggang's First Handsome Fang'?"
