Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 1088: Wind Proud Bird

The Feng Ao Bird multiplied from one to two, and then from two to four.

A bolt of lightning struck one of the Feng Ao Birds, instantly making it disappear.

The remaining three Feng Ao Birds transformed into white light in an inverted triangle formation, charging directly towards the Xiaoting Dragon.

They were all contestants in the same competition. She and the Xiaoting Dragon had successfully challenged higher levels twice in a row, so it was impossible for the opponent not to have noticed her matches. Last time, the scattered lightning of the Xiaoting Dragon had struck the Chong Ban Yan, who also used a clone. The opponent should have seen it, yet they still used this move. This was too abnormal. If it were an ordinary Yu Beast Master, it would be understandable, but this was Yan Tian Star, where battles were prevalent. The opponent shouldn’t be so unprepared… Qiao Sang’s brain rapidly processed, then she thought of something and shouted:

“Strike the one behind!”

As soon as her voice fell, the Feng Ao Bird flying at the back suddenly stopped and spread its wings.

At the same time, yellow electric arcs appeared on the Xiaoting Dragon, concentrating into a single bolt, skillfully passing through the gap between the two Feng Ao Birds in front, and striking towards the Feng Ao Bird at the back.

She actually saw through it… Lila’s heart tightened when she saw this, and she shouted:

“Dodge!”

The Feng Ao Bird’s greatest strength was its speed; it absolutely could not be hit and have its speed affected.

“Feng Ao.”

The Feng Ao Bird obeyed the command, forcefully stopping its movement and quickly soaring upwards, dodging the lightning bolt that was striking directly at it.

At the same time, the two Feng Ao Birds in front, which had turned into white light and were only tens of centimeters away from the Xiaoting Dragon, suddenly disappeared.

“Ting Ting.”

The Xiaoting Dragon was first stunned, then showed an expression of “I truly didn’t choose the wrong person,” resisting the urge to look back.

The brief exchange caused discussions to break out in the stands.

“How on earth did Qiao Sang figure out the Feng Ao Bird’s true body?”

“I could see it too; its true body was hiding behind the clones, afraid of being attacked.”

“What’s going on with the Feng Ao Bird’s clones? They were about to attack the Xiaoting Dragon but then disappeared.”

“Perhaps it was due to unstable internal energy caused by dodging.”

Guest area.

“Tie Tie!”

Tie Daoyi showed an expression of admiration and called out.

The translation was simultaneously transmitted through Feodor’s and Fu Jian’s earpieces.

Fu Jian exclaimed:

“If contestant Qiao Sang’s commands were even more concise, I feel that with her analysis of the battle situation, she would be more than capable of participating in the City Yu Beast Competition.”

“In such a short time, she analyzed that the two Feng Ao Birds in front were a diversion, and only the actual body would truly launch an attack. So she ignored the two attacking clones in front and issued a command to the Xiaoting Dragon to attack the true body.”

Fu Jian became even more emotional: “Truly impressive, I couldn’t do this at her age at all.”

Feodor echoed:

“Indeed, the Feng Ao Bird’s true body was not prepared to attack simultaneously with its clones.”

“Looking at its actions just now, it seemed to want to launch a long-range attack from the rear.”

“Currently, the Feng Ao Bird cannot perform an Electro-optic Flash attack with its clones while its true body also attacks.”

“Those two clones didn’t disappear because the Feng Ao Bird’s internal energy became unstable due to dodging attacks, but because the Feng Ao Bird’s true body was preparing to attack.”

“Contestant Qiao Sang must have also seen this point, which is why she didn’t bother with the attacks of the two clones in front.”

The guests’ vision and attention far surpassed those of ordinary Yu Beast Masters and Pets, and they all noticed a faint white light appearing on the Feng Ao Bird’s true body as it spread its wings.

This was strong evidence that the true body was about to launch an attack.

During the conversation.

On the field.

The Feng Ao Bird stabilized itself and flapped its wings downwards with force.

Blades of air condensed from the atmosphere immediately shot towards the Xiaoting Dragon.

Can’t dodge it… Qiao Sang gauged the speed of the Air Blade and instantly understood this point.

During this time, the Xiaoting Dragon had been training its movement speed and reaction ability with Qing Bao as a sparring partner, so she naturally knew the Xiaoting Dragon’s movement speed.

It had to be said that movement speed was still a major flaw for the Xiaoting Dragon.

“Defend!” Qiao Sang issued the command.

The matches these past few days were not entirely without gain. Besides learning about the Multiple Scales and Lightning Rod characteristics, the Xiaoting Dragon learned how to use Discharge attacks for large-area defense through its battle with the Chong Ban Yan. She had the Xiaoting Dragon specifically practice controlling and extending the time and distance of a large number of electric arcs scattering outwards.

The Xiaoting Dragon understood the command’s meaning, and immediately, yellow electric arcs appeared on its body, scattering outwards.

The electric arcs did not quickly converge into a single lightning bolt as usual, but instead scattered at least two meters further than before.

“Bang bang bang!”

Blades of air condensed from the atmosphere struck the scattered electric arcs, producing loud noises.

The shockwaves and air currents from the collision obscured some of the view.

“Air Blade!” Lila issued the command.

The Xiaoting Dragon heard the opponent’s command and subconsciously, yellow electric arcs once again appeared on its body, scattering outwards.

However, the imagined Air Blade did not strike. The Feng Ao Bird’s body turned into a white light, drawing a precise arc in the air.

The white light flashed and disappeared in an instant, at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow, directly arriving in the Xiaoting Dragon’s blind spot behind it and rushing downwards.

Swallow’s Return, a Flying-type intermediate skill, uses agile speed to trick the opponent and perform slashes. It’s a close-range skill, and the scattered electric arcs cannot block this move at all… Ordinary Yu Beast Masters cannot keep up with the speed of Swallow’s Return, but Qiao Sang clearly saw the trajectory and shouted:

“Strike backward!”

“Ting Ting!”

The Xiaoting Dragon immediately activated its energy. The already scattered electric arcs instantly converged into a single bolt, striking concentratedly backward.

But at this moment, the white light flashed and disappeared again, changing its trajectory just as it was about to make contact with the lightning bolt, and charging directly downwards towards the Xiaoting Dragon from above.

Discharge is too late… Qiao Sang decisively said:

“Dragon Tail upwards!”

This command, if given to other Beginner Pets that had just hatched, would be difficult to react to immediately, but the Xiaoting Dragon reacted, quickly gathering silver-white light on its tail and swinging it upwards fiercely.

However, just as the silver-white tail was about to collide with the white light, the silver-white light that had just surged onto its tail suddenly disappeared.

Qiao Sang’s heart sank.

“Bang!”

With a loud bang, the Xiaoting Dragon was sent flying backward by the impact of the white light.

Everyone was in an uproar.

They didn’t expect the Xiaoting Dragon’s Dragon Tail to fail at the last moment, but on second thought, it seemed reasonable.

It was already incredible for a Beginner Pet to use a high-level skill; how could it completely control it and use it perfectly every time?

Lila was not angry that the Feng Ao Bird hadn’t listened to her command earlier. Seeing the successful attack, she was very pleasantly surprised and prepared to finish it off, shouting: “Air Blade!”

She hadn’t forgotten that the Xiaoting Dragon also had the Multiple Scales characteristic.

“Feng Ao!”

The Feng Ao Bird still did not obey the command. It transformed into a white light, flashing swiftly through the air, and charged directly towards the Xiaoting Dragon.

Its previous successful judgment made it even more confident in itself.

“Dragon Tail!” Qiao Sang shouted without thinking.

Even if the Xiaoting Dragon’s Discharge hit the Feng Ao Bird, it would be difficult to win the match in its current state. The only chance to win was to take a gamble now!

“Ting Ting!”

The Xiaoting Dragon struggled to stand up, gritting its teeth, and forcefully swung its tail in the direction from which the white light was approaching.

As it swung, its tail emitted a silver-white light.

“Bang!”

With a loud bang, the Feng Ao Bird was sent flying backward.
