Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 358: sudden frost

On the field, Qiao Sang and Wu Chang exchanged glances, neither speaking a word.

She felt that Wu Chang was a bit different; it seemed that after that incident, he had matured a lot.

Indeed, for a person to mature quickly, there’s always a price to pay… As Qiao Sang was filled with emotion, the whistle signaling the start of the match blew.

Green and grey star formations lit up simultaneously.

… …

At the same time, at the Hong Rao Town secret realm rift.

A man in a brown jacket lit a cigarette and said, “Danger index 7%. Based on the situation these past few days, it’s within a controllable range. I think we can withdraw.”

“Have you forgotten the contents of the file?” The woman with long red curly hair next to him said faintly, “The child who witnessed the secret realm rift appearing said he saw a Silver-Armored Xim.”

The man fell silent for a moment. Silver-Armored Xim, a Steel-type and Flying-type dual-attribute Emperor-level Pet. If this thing really came out of the secret realm rift, the entire Hong Rao Town would probably be doomed.

“Didn’t they say that child didn’t recognize that Pet?” The man said as he glanced at a large red butterfly-like Pet beside him.

This Pet immediately turned its body and adjusted its position.

The next second, the tip of its rear lit up with fire and touched the cigarette in its Yu Beast Master’s mouth.

The man took a puff of his cigarette and continued, “I remember the file said it was based on the child’s description and image comparison. What if it was a mistake?”

The woman rolled her eyes at him, “Silver-Armored Xim. You tell me a Pet that looks like it.”

The man shrugged, “But according to the procedure and the data provided by the information analysis team, this secret realm can already have its safety alert lifted. Even if people still need to stay, our entire team doesn’t need to be here.”

The woman looked behind the man.

More than a dozen Staff members were silently fiddling with various instruments, indicating with their actions, ‘You guys chat, we’re just background.’

“Wait…”

Just then, a Staff member looked at the detection instrument and suddenly said, “The data has changed. A wild Pet just came out. Judging by the波动, it’s a High-level Pet.”

People can’t always look up and stare at the secret realm rift, and some Pets that can become invisible or hide their tracks would not be seen by the naked eye even if they came out.

At such times, instruments specifically designed to detect energy fluctuations are crucial.

… …

Huicheng Beast High School.

“Bang!!!”

Lu Bao, covered in Water-type energy, instantly broke through the dust and mercilessly slammed into the Desert Tail Fox’s head.

Under the huge impact, dust swirled up.

When the dust settled, what everyone saw was the fallen Desert Tail Fox and the aloof Ice Dew Qiya.

“qu!”

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

The match ended in just a few moves, and this unsurprising outcome kept the audience’s minds very calm.

“Although Ice Dew Qiya is a Water-type Pet, its speed is significantly faster than the Desert Tail Fox.”

“The Desert Tail Fox’s defense is still too low. I thought it would at least last a few rounds.”

“Actually, Wu Chang’s rhythm was good. He made the Desert Tail Fox attack immediately, but the opponent was just too abnormal.”

“With Ice Dew Qiya’s Healing Light, if it doesn’t get one-shotted, putting aside everything else, fighting for a long time and seeing it completely unharmed would make you die of anger.”

“Sigh, although I supported Wu Chang, why do I have a feeling of ‘as expected’… ”

“Me too…”

“Actually, it’s fine that Wu Chang lost. This is his last group stage match, and I’ve seen his points; he’s already qualified for promotion.”

On the field, the second match had already begun.

Lu Bao and the Sense Sight Bird were on opposite sides of the field, seriously observing each other.

With the whistle, Lu Bao, enveloped in Water-type energy, rushed towards the Sense Sight Bird first to attack.

The Sense Sight Bird flapped its wings forcefully, tilted its head upwards, and quickly ascended into the sky.

The Water Jet’s height and duration were limited. After chasing the Sense Sight Bird in the air for two circles, Lu Bao landed back on the ground, dispersing the flowing water.

“Brave Bird Attack!” Wu Chang seized the opportunity to give the command.

Hearing its Yu Beast Master’s words, the Sense Sight Bird swooped down, suddenly accelerating towards Lu Bao’s location, and then a faint green light enveloped its entire body.

“Jump.” Qiao Sang said calmly.

Lu Bao jumped forward and disappeared from public view.

The audience began to discuss amongst themselves.

“I’ve noticed that Ice Dew Qiya always uses a Water-type skill first to get the ground somewhat wet, so it can hide its tracks at any time.”

“That’s very detailed.”

“Holy crap, I knew it! Ice-type skills clearly counter Flying-type Pets, yet it insisted on using a Water-type for the first move. So that was the intention!”

The Sense Sight Bird attacked nothing.

“Use Air Blade on the ground!” Wu Chang immediately thought of a countermeasure.

Upon hearing this, the Sense Sight Bird flew into mid-air, flapped its wings forcefully, and more than a dozen blades made of air swiftly converged on a certain spot on the ground.

Logically, the number of Air Blades was not particularly large, and the chance of accurately hitting the specific drop of water Lu Bao had melted into was less than 10%.

But it was so miraculous; all the Air Blades attacked the area around where Lu Bao was hidden.

Seeing one of the Air Blades about to hit it, Lu Bao quickly jumped out of that drop of water.

Due to Lu Bao’s incredibly fast reaction speed, it was able to weave through the dense Air Blades, always putting itself in a safe position.

Goodness, the training with the stone-shattering attack wasn’t for nothing! Speaking of which, the Sense Sight Bird’s vision is truly amazing… Qiao Sang thought to herself.

The Sense Sight Bird’s excellent vision was well-known, but she didn’t know that the Sense Sight Bird could also notice which drop of water Lu Bao jumped into while performing Brave Bird Attack.

One must know that each drop of water is incredibly tiny, and Lu Bao would also move immediately.

Unless it was certain where it jumped, how could it accurately launch an attack?

“Icy Wind.”

The Air Blade attack had ended. As Qiao Sang spoke, Lu Bao opened its mouth, and a large amount of cold air rapidly spread towards the Sense Sight Bird’s direction in mid-air.

The Sense Sight Bird had no choice but to fly higher to dodge.

There was time to cast Rain Prayer… Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up, and she gave the command: “Rain Prayer.”

Rain Prayer?!

Because the audience had been quiet enough during the previous series of battles, many people heard Qiao Sang’s words.

Immediately, discussions broke out.

“Did I hear that right? Did Qiao Sang just say Rain Prayer?”

“Apparently, it seems, it appears, indeed, it was Rain Prayer…”

“Really? Isn’t Rain Prayer a High Level skill?”

“What’s there not to believe? Ice Dew Qiya can use Healing Light, so what’s strange about it also knowing Rain Prayer?”

“That’s not the same! Healing Light is Ice Dew Qiya’s inherited skill! Rain Prayer needs to be self-taught!”

“Stop arguing, stop arguing. We’ll know if it’s Rain Prayer by looking down.”

On the field.

Lu Bao slightly raised its head, energy circulating within its body. It opened its mouth, and just as it was about to use Rain Prayer, it suddenly felt a chill in its mouth.

It instinctively licked the thing that fell into its mouth with its tongue.

“Lu?”

Lu Bao raised its head in confusion.

The next second, it saw Snowfall all over the sky.

“Holy crap! Why is it suddenly Snowfall?!”

“Isn’t it only November?!”

“What the heck? How can it be Snowfall in this weather?!”

“My goodness, look quickly! There’s a Pet!” The person who said this pointed at the sky, looking excited.

“Lu…”

Lu Bao, curious, tilted its head up and opened its mouth to eat another mouthful of snow.

No one knew that at this moment, the air trembled slightly.

Feeling the cool aura within its body, the idea that Lu Bao had been unable to grasp despite training all night suddenly clicked…

“Lu.”

Lu Bao looked up again.

This time, it showed an extremely serious expression and opened its mouth.

A cool aura rapidly spread, sweeping across the entire sky of the arena like a storm.

One second, two seconds…

Frost descended sharply.

The people in the audience were still discussing.

“Did any of you see what that Pet was just now?”

“How could we see it? It flew away in an instant.”

“I just scanned and searched, it’s a Snow-Furred Old Man, a High-level Pet.”

“This snow was probably caused by it.”

“I’ve never personally seen a Pet use these weather-type skills. I didn’t expect the Snow-Furred Old Man to be gone, and the snow is still falling.”
