The subsequent coordination and outcome obviously weren't because Fire Dog acted against his commands, but rather, it attacked with his tacit approval.
Such situations only occur in high level matches.
Experienced beast tamers of higher levels study their opponent's spirit beasts beforehand, and devising a series of tactics to confuse the opponent during the match.
This is also why most large-scale competitions don't specify who attacks first.
It's all about excitement.
There are also some high level beast tamers who, instead of strategizing based on their opponent's informations, they just trust their spirit beasts entirely, and letting them act freely.
They only intervening in unexpected or critical moments.
However, both of these scenarios are only performed by high level beast tamers.
Yet, the boy in front of them is still a rookie...
"What's his name?" asked Leo Harrison.
"His name is Riley, it's from Aspertia Middle School," Teacher Brian replied, while glancing at the candidate information in his hand.
"I remember Aspertia Middle School also had a student who was being recommended to our school this year," Teacher Eric remarked.
"Yes, there was one, her name is Oliver. Both her parents are ordinary people; it left a deep impression on me," Teacher Brian responded.
"Ordinary people?! Are there still awakened children born from ordinary families these days? What's the level of her brain domain development?" Teacher Eric looked surprised.
"5%," stated Teacher Brian.
"This child is not bad. If its performance in the entrance exam is decent, let's admit its to the Advanced Beast Tamer Class," Leo Harrison suggested.
"It's not good. Even if she's an awakened beast tamer born from ordinary parents, her brain domain is only 5%. Our Advanced Beast Tamer Class was established to counter Stalavia High School, and we need to consider various aspects—her contracted spirit beast, her personal combat abilities, and also her..." Teacher Eric paused in mid-sentence.
Because Teacher Brian was staring at him as if he were a foolish.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Teacher Eric glared back at him, feeling discontented.
Teacher Brian spoke slowly, "The vice principal mentioned that if there are no issues with its entrance exam scores, do you think someone who's been recommended still needs to take the middle school entrance exam?"
Teacher Eric stayed silent.
Oh, they were talking about that person named Riley...
Whether it's Fire Dog or his own performance in battles, it seems like entering the Advanced Beast Tamer Class wouldn't be a problem...
But feeling looked down upon by his arcenemy Teacher Brian...
It's quite unpleasant...
At this moment, the central figure of the conversation, Riley, was taking out Dayrie Milk from his backpack for Fire Dog.
After two battles, he had firmly secured one of the five special admission spots at St. Angela High School.
However, his aim wasn't just to be among those five places, but to be the first one.
The second and fifth place in the middle school entrance exam must be 50-point higher over the minimum passing score, while the first place only need to reaching the minimum passing score in the middle school entrance exam.
