Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 223: Do you have an idea?
Audience stands.
A middle-aged man in his forties behind Wang Weidou suddenly leaned forward and whispered, “This student, relying on her own strength, doesn’t put other classmates in her eyes. She’s caused such a big commotion and disrupted the order that should be there. Are we just going to let her continue like this without doing anything?”
Wang Weidou frowned and glanced at him, “This is the School Team’s strength display segment. She’s just trying to liven up the atmosphere and get more people to challenge her. How is that disrupting order?”
“That’s true, but she’s already had dozens of matches, and no one else wants to challenge her, yet she insists on doing this,” the middle-aged man said. “There are still 5 School Team members waiting. Isn’t this a waste of everyone’s time?”
How could a Teacher complain about a student having too many matches? Wang Weidou’s face darkened. Just as he was about to speak, Liu Yao, who was beside him, suddenly asked, “So, what do you want?”
“I think since the students can’t win, then we Teachers should go up and properly suppress her arrogance, so that the remaining School Team members can compete sooner,” the middle-aged man said with a serious expression.
Wang Weidou: “…”
He wanted to ask for the Teleportation skill book directly, but instead, he belittled her and spoke in a roundabout way, almost making him unable to resist cursing.
…
On the field, one challenger after another came up.
Ya Bao’s expression went from initial excitement to casualness, and finally to fatigue.
Besides the reason of fighting for too long, another point was that the opponents who came up were just too weak!
Basically, one move took out one opponent, completely different from its initial idea of having a good, hearty battle for three hundred rounds.
“Ya Bao, this is the 101st! Hang in there!” Qiao Sang shouted.
“Ya! Ya!”
Hearing her Yu Beast Master’s encouragement, Ya Bao instantly perked up again.
It could still continue!
A Flame Vortex directly knocked the newly appeared White Sand Fox to the ground.
Watching the invincible Yan Ling Dog on the field, in the section where Class 9 of the second year was seated, a boy with freckles and glasses spoke up, “This Yan Ling Dog is not only strong, but its stamina is also exceptionally vigorous. The students who go up usually only focus on studying and have no combat experience at all. If this continues, who knows when it will be worn down.”
“Zhou Ren, do you have an idea?” a classmate next to him asked.
Don’t look at how Zhou Ren usually seemed like a quiet person, but once he spoke, he always got to the point, and he had a lot of clever ideas. So when he spoke, his classmate felt that he might have an idea.
“Indeed, I do,” Zhou Ren pushed up his glasses, and a gleam of wisdom reflected in the lenses.
“What is it? Tell us quickly!” the excited classmate next to him urged.
The surrounding classmates also leaned in.
“From the moment she said that if anyone could defeat her, every person who challenged her would get the Teleportation skill book, this stopped being a 1v1 battle,” Zhou Ren said.
The classmate next to him gestured with his eyes for him to continue.
“I’ve observed that after every 5 matches, this junior sister will call the School Doctor to replenish the Yan Ling Dog’s energy and stamina,” Zhou Ren said, pushing up his glasses. “She probably hasn’t realized this problem herself. Once a person repeatedly does something regularly, it basically means a habit has begun to form.”
“So, there’s a high probability that she will restore the Yan Ling Dog’s condition after every 5 matches.”
“As long as we accumulate negative damage on the Yan Ling Dog within 4 consecutive battles, then in the 5th match, we find the strongest person among us to deliver a fatal blow, the probability of wearing down the Yan Ling Dog is over 95%.”
As soon as these words came out, the people around instinctively looked at Wang Yao, the strongest in their class.
Wang Yao’s mouth twitched, and she refused, “Don’t all look at me! I’m not going up. I don’t do things like taking advantage of others.”
What a joke! In a 1v1, she thought she could give it a try, but these guys actually wanted her to be that one-fifth!
A classmate anxiously asked, “Don’t you want that Teleportation skill book?!”
Wang Yao spread her hands, “My family is rich.”
Rich dog!
Everyone turned their gaze back to Zhou Ren.
Zhou Ren coughed and said, “It’s okay, we can find other classes to cooperate with. After all, we’re not the only ones who want to win.”
“But this Yan Ling Dog reacts very quickly and can Teleport. Let alone hitting it with long-range attacks, you can’t even get close,” a classmate sitting in front turned his head and said hesitantly.
“That’s why the Pet that comes out is very important,” Zhou Ren said. “I’ve thought about it. The first person to enter the arena, their contracted Pet must be a Poison-type Pet that knows Poison Mist. Their only task is to immediately use Poison Mist to get the Yan Ling Dog into a poisoned state.”
“The goal is to reduce its attack power so that the second Pet doesn’t get instantly defeated.”
“The second Pet to enter the arena should preferably be a Fighting-type that knows the Double Payback ultimate move. Double Payback can return double the damage the user received previously. As long as it holds on, it can effectively damage the Yan Ling Dog.”
“In this state, it basically can’t instantly defeat its opponent, so the third Pet should be a Grass-type that knows Photosynthesis. This move can restore its own status, allowing it to properly wear down the Yan Ling Dog for a while.”
“Under normal circumstances, after these three matches, the Yan Ling Dog should be about done. But we have to think of the worst-case scenario. Assuming this Yan Ling Dog has the Raging Flames ability, then we need to find someone in the school whose Pet has the Flash Fire ability to go up.”
“The Flash Fire ability can nullify Fire-type skills, perfectly countering the Yan Ling Dog’s Fire-type skills.”
“However, the Yan Ling Dog also has Superpower System attributes, so we cannot be careless. Therefore, the fifth person to enter the arena should preferably be strong, and a Water-type Pet would be best. With this whole sequence, if there are no surprises, the Yan Ling Dog basically won’t be able to hold on.”
The surrounding classmates listened in a daze.
Wang Yao’s mouth twitched.
Good heavens, if they really followed this lineup, who could withstand it…?
“Then what are we waiting for! Quickly find people who meet the conditions!”
“Right! I’ll go ask the next class.”
“I’ll go ask Class 9!”
“I’ll go ask the third-year students!”
Everyone immediately sprang into action.
Zhou Ren pushed up his glasses and said no more, truly a master hiding his merits.
…
“Second-year, Class 1, Kong Nanhai.”
The boy who entered the arena politely introduced himself, then began to form hand seals.
On the field, a snake-like Pet, entirely black with golden armor from its lower body to the tip of its tail, immediately appeared.
“Ya Bao, this is the 106th! You can do it!” Qiao Sang shouted.
“Ya! Ya!”
Ya Bao nodded.
The battle began.
“Golden Armored Snake, Poison Mist!” Kong Nanhai directly gave the command.
The Golden Armored Snake opened its mouth, and a cloud of black mist spewed out, slowly spreading around the field.
Before the Poison Mist could reach Ya Bao’s location, a Flame Vortex burst through the Poison Mist and directly hit the Golden Armored Snake.
The Poison Mist in the middle was dispersed, but the surrounding mist remained, and a small amount of black mist continued to spread towards Ya Bao’s direction on the field, quickly being absorbed.
Well done!
Zhou Ren’s heart was excited as he watched this scene.
“Golden Armored Snake is unable to battle. Qiao Sang wins,” the Teacher announced without much enthusiasm.
Kong Nanhai showed no reaction, as if he had already foreseen this outcome.
Just as he thought he had completed his mission and could safely leave the stage, a voice entered his ears.
“Teacher, I’d like to apply to help the Yan Ling Dog restore its condition.”
Kong Nanhai: “???”
