The competition involved not only battles but also coordination contests, and it was divided into individual and team categories.
Qiao Sang realized this was why Pet Beasts like the Fire-Toothed Dog, which were not adept at fighting alone, were present.
In team battles, with its healing skills, the Fire-Toothed Dog could act as a healer, and if it had vine-like skills, it could play a control role. If it also had skills like Flying Leaf Quick Knife for attacking, it could engage in containment, making it an absolutely top choice for team combat.
Even if it wasn't for team battles, being selected for the coordination category due to the Fire-Toothed Dog's appearance wouldn't be bad either.
