Chapter 355: draw?

“Awesome, awesome, incredibly awesome!”

“Just that one move, why do I feel like I’m watching a hot-blooded anime?”

“My brother, me too!”

“It’s clearly an endangered Pet, yet it’s fighting so desperately, it’s so touching!”

“Ice Dew Qiya! You must win!”

On the field.

Lu Bao, with a large bump on his head, shot out of the Water and leaped onto a floating rock.

Qiao Sang looked at Lu Bao’s aloof back and let out a light breath. She had to admit that the unexpected turn of events in the battle was quite thrilling…

“Healing…” Qiao Sang didn’t finish the words “Light” when she saw the broken Ice surface re-freeze and rapidly converge towards Lu Bao’s location.

This scene was also witnessed by the audience.

“Is this Snow Guardian Bear’s recovery so strong? It took such a huge impact head-on and still recovered so quickly to continue attacking…”

“Speaking of which, I also watched Liu Zeru’s matches in the previous National Campus League. I feel like his battle style this year is much more aggressive.”

“He has to be aggressive. This is his last National Campus Pet Beast League,” said another School Team member from Xiong Ding High School who came to participate.

“Actually, I don’t think it’s necessary,” someone next to him offered his opinion. “This is just the group stage. With Liu Zeru’s strength, he can definitely advance. Wouldn’t it be better to conserve his strength and go all out in the knockout stage?”

“You don’t understand,” the male said indifferently. “Sometimes, a match isn’t about winning, but about proving that one’s efforts truly existed.”

Youth is great… The person next to him raised an eyebrow, said no more, and watched the battle patiently.

On the field, Liu Zeru’s expression was incredibly focused. Just as the Ice surface was about to freeze around Ice Dew Qiya, he quickly shouted, “Ice Fang!”

Ice Fang, an Ice-type intermediate skill. If bitten by Ice Fang, it deals damage and has a certain chance to inflict frozen and flinching status on the target.

This move again… First, he uses Ice to seal off the position. At this point, one either jumps into the Water or jumps up to dodge. If one doesn’t jump high enough, the cold air from Icy Wind could affect Lu Bao. As soon as his speed is limited, before he even lands, the Snow Guardian Bear, presumably ready to unleash Ice Fang, would break through the Ice and pounce directly. If he enters the Water, he’s probably waiting there too… As Qiao Sang’s mind raced, she quickly responded:

“Water Fusion!”

Hearing his Yu Beast Master’s words, Lu Bao immediately jumped into the Water.

It was at this moment that a chill swept in, and Lu Bao’s previous position instantly froze into Ice.

The audience collectively looked at the virtual screen.

Just as Ice Dew Qiya jumped into the Water, the Snow Guardian Bear, whose teeth had already transformed into sharp Ice fangs and were waiting below, lunged forward and bit down hard.

“Snow Guardian?”

The Snow Guardian Bear bit nothing, revealing a confused expression.

At the same time, a mass of Water behind its head twisted and transformed into Lu Bao’s appearance.

Water surged, and Lu Bao’s tail quickly condensed energy. In the Water-filled environment, a Water Tail twice its usual size mercilessly lashed out at the Snow Guardian Bear’s head.

“Snow Guardian!!”

The Snow Guardian Bear howled and fell towards the bottom of the Water.

It opened its eyes and saw only Water, with no sign of its opponent.

“Snow Guardian…”

“Whack!”

Just as the Snow Guardian Bear showed a bewildered expression, Lu Bao suddenly appeared beside it and delivered another Water Tail.

“Snow Guardian!!”

Whack, whack, whack… Lu Bao appeared suddenly and disappeared suddenly. Each appearance brought a fierce attack. The Water Tail whipped the Snow Guardian Bear into continuous howls, leaving it utterly defenseless.

In the audience, everyone was discussing animatedly.

“Is a Pet with the Melt Water characteristic really this powerful?”

“Actually, it’s still a matter of its low level. If the Snow Guardian Bear evolved once or twice more and froze all the Water, wouldn’t that solve it?”

“Ah, I really wish Ice Dew Qiya would choose me…”

“A Water-type Pet with the Melt Water characteristic should be invincible in Water, right?”

“A few days ago, I saw a post where someone proposed a solution for Ice Dew Qiya’s Melt Water characteristic, saying to just use a Poison-type Pet to release poison in the Water. Even if it doesn’t hit, it can force it out.”

Unable to see the specific scene in the Water, but hearing the screams from the virtual screen and the audience’s reactions, it was not difficult to guess the current situation.

Liu Zeru clenched his hands tightly.

Was he willing to accept this?

Truth be told, he was not.

Although he could still advance even if he lost this match, his opponent was only 15 years old and had defeated him without a single loss. How could he be willing?

Even if he lost, he wanted to defeat Ice Dew Qiya before losing!

“A-Hu!” Liu Zeru shouted loudly.

His voice reached the bottom of the Water, and the battered Snow Guardian Bear suddenly opened its eyes.

“Snow Guardian!!!”

A surge of unknown power rushed to its heart. The Snow Guardian Bear let out a loud cry and burst out of the Water, breaking through the Ice.

“Lu!”

Lu Bao followed closely, jumping out of the Ice surface.

“Ice Pillar Drop!” Liu Zeru waved his hand and shouted loudly.

At the same time, Qiao Sang shouted, “Water Jet!”

“Snow Guardian!” The Snow Guardian Bear looked up and cried out.

Dozens of incredibly sturdy Ice pillars quickly condensed in the air and crashed downwards.

Meanwhile, a strong Water current enveloped Lu Bao’s entire body, and then, without the slightest hesitation, she charged into the area full of Ice pillars!

Turning left and right, Lu Bao, enveloped by the Water current, continuously weaved through the falling Ice pillars.

In almost an instant, she charged in front of the Snow Guardian Bear.

Liu Zeru clenched his hands. There was no time left. The Snow Guardian Bear was not in good condition, and most of its energy was depleted. If they dragged this out any longer, in a Water-type arena, facing Ice Dew Qiya, who possessed the Melt Water characteristic, it would have no advantage whatsoever.

“Ice Fang!” Liu Zeru quickly made his decision.

If he couldn’t drag it out, then he could only go all out!

Ice instantly condensed on the Snow Guardian Bear’s teeth.

Lu Bao, unleashing Water Jet, charged straight in. Just as they collided, the Snow Guardian Bear exerted all its strength and bit down with all its might.

“Boom!!!”

A massive burst of energy exploded, sending both Pets flying backward.

The Snow Guardian Bear fell to the ground, unable to get up.

“Lu…”

Lu Bao struggled to get up, but after a moment, she fell back down.

A draw?

The audience was silent for a moment.

“Actually, I think a draw is pretty good. The Snow Guardian Bear really gave its all.”

“Yeah, it was attacked for so long in the Water just now, and it still managed to keep going in the end.”

“Ice Dew Qiya also managed a one-against-two, which is amazing!”

“Ah, my Ice Dew Qiya! Why isn’t the whistle blowing yet? Hurry up and let my Ice Dew Qiya rest!”

On the field.

Qiao Sang looked at Lu Bao’s injured, fallen form, thinking of how hard he had trained for the competition these past few days. She was silent for a moment, then spoke:

“Can you still use Healing Light?”

Lu Bao had no strength to reply. He struggled to open his eyes and directly showed his Yu Beast Master with his actions.

The blue light was like a sound control switch, and as it lit up, it made the audience collectively fall silent.

When the blue light dissipated, Lu Bao was seen standing on the floating rock, head slightly tilted, completely unharmed, and with an aloof expression.

“qu!”

“Saint Water Middle School’s Qiao Sang wins!”

Wuwuwu, I want monthly votes, I want to get into the top ten
