Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 379: Be safer

Most of the audience present were Yu Beast Masters, and they could tell at a glance whether a contestant was good or not. Although the two had only just engaged, in a high school competition, it was clear that this was already considered a high-level match.

Everyone’s anticipation and excitement couldn’t help but rise even higher.

“As expected of a super popular contestant, he gives off a different vibe.”

“Did you guys see that? Ding Yanjing didn’t even give a command just now, but Shanli Crow knew which direction to throw the Lightning Web, as if it already knew that Treasure Hunting Fairy would appear there. Ding Yanjing probably figured out Qiao Sang’s fighting style and made preparations in advance.”

“Qiao Sang’s battle awareness is quite strong; she actually detected Shanli Crow’s intention in advance.”

“And that Treasure Hunting Fairy, its reaction speed is also quite fast.”

“This match is going to be something to watch.”

On the field.

“Qunbao…”

Little Qunbao stared at the big fellow in mid-air, its expression gradually becoming serious.

“Ten Thousand Volts.” Ding Yanjing gave the command.

“Li!”

Shanli Crow flapped its wings forcefully, and yellow lightning instantly flared and danced. The electricity surged, and accompanied by its cry, streaks of lightning converged and struck down precisely towards Little Qunbao’s location.

“Qun!”

Little Qunbao was so scared that it quickly teleported to dodge.

But just as it moved to another position, another bolt of lightning erupted from Shanli Crow’s body and struck again.

The lightning struck frantically and with incredible speed, making Little Qunbao dodge very clumsily.

As a result, it barely managed to narrowly avoid the attack, only for another bolt of lightning to be about to fall from above its head.

Little Qunbao had no choice but to use Space Movement again before it even had a chance to catch its breath.

“Boom!”

An exaggerated explosion sounded, and the lightning struck the ground, shattering the surrounding rocks.

This destructive power made Little Qunbao not dare to rest for a moment.

This Shanli Crow’s energy was clearly higher than that of an ordinary intermediate Pet. It kept using Ten Thousand Volts without stopping, and Ding Yanjing didn’t seem afraid of its energy running out. If this continued, it would be too passive… Qiao Sang watched the situation on the field, her mind rapidly turning. When she saw Shanli Crow, which had been continuously attacking without moving, her eyes flashed, and she quickly shouted:

“Ground!”

Others didn’t understand what this meant, but Little Qunbao, who had a certain understanding with Qiao Sang, immediately understood its meaning.

“Qun!”

Little Qunbao disappeared from its spot, and the next second, it appeared on the ground.

A bolt of lightning followed closely, appearing about ten meters above its head, about to strike. Little Qunbao extended a short toe, and the shadow of the short toe on the ground rapidly extended and connected to Shanli Crow’s shadow.

Immediately after, it wiggled its short toe to the left.

At the same time, Shanli Crow in mid-air uncontrollably moved a certain distance to the left as well.

The lightning struck wide.

Loud cheers erupted from the audience.

“This is the passion of speed versus speed!”

“Shanli Crow is controlled by Dark Shadow Control. It seems Qiao Sang has won this round.”

“It’s too early to jump to conclusions.”

“Shanli Crow’s attack rhythm is quite fierce. I almost thought Treasure Hunting Fairy was done for just now.”

“Qiao Sang and Treasure Hunting Fairy have great teamwork! Just saying ‘ground’ and it knew to seize the opportunity to control Shanli Crow’s shadow.”

The live stream video on the official website was also happening simultaneously.

Compared to the audience at the venue, who were mostly Yu Beast Masters who were already parents, young people and students who watched the live stream and liked to send bullet comments made up the majority.

“6666, I love this battle rhythm.”

“Another day without Ice Dew Qiya.”

“Ah ah ah ah ah! Qiao Sang! Beat Ding Yanjing!”

“Qiao Sang is truly awesome! Quickly defeat Ding Yanjing!”

“Abuse him! Kill him with abuse! Ruthlessly abuse him!”

“This Treasure Hunting Fairy, I remember it can use Space Movement, right? Why doesn’t it just move directly onto Shanli Crow and then control it like yesterday?”

“Can’t take the risk. Qiao Sang must have studied Ding Yanjing. His Shanli Crow has a static electricity characteristic. What if it gets paralyzed if it touches it?”

“Why does it feel like everyone today wants Qiao Sang to win?”

“Blind guess: are those who hope Ding Yanjing loses all third-year high school students?”

“Brother, you got the truth.”

“Isn’t it class today?”

“Took a leave of absence.”

“Skipped class.”

“Took a leave of absence +1.”

“I’m awesome. It’s self-study, I’m watching directly on my phone with data in the classroom.”

“Hehe, to be honest with you, I let my Illusory Water Baby go to class for me.”

Kai Nan Pet Beast Battle Arena.

First row of the audience, leadership area.

Wang Weidou quietly puffed out his chest, raised his chin, and smiled:

“Principal Huang, why is Ding Yanjing from your school still using the same old tricks? First Lightning Web, then Ten Thousand Volts, no progress at all.”

Huang Renbiao’s tone was as calm and collected as ever: “Qiao Sang from your school is pretty much the same. First, she tries to approach with Space Movement to attack, and if that doesn’t work, she uses Dark Shadow Control.”

“That’s not how you put it.” Wang Weidou smiled: “The most important thing is for the moves to be useful. Look, isn’t this Dark Shadow Control working now?”

Huang Renbiao wasn’t angry: “Is that so?”

Wang Weidou narrowed his eyes.

Logically, once a Pet of the same rank is controlled by Dark Shadow Control, it’s not much different from losing. But why was Huang Renbiao showing no reaction at all?

Could it be that he didn’t care if Shanli Crow lost and was counting on Ding Yanjing to use Guwei Sunflower to win against Qiao Sang in a two-on-one battle?

On the field.

“Qun!”

Little Qunbao, having successfully controlled the shadow, happily let out a cry and rotated its short toe, performing its long-unused move.

Spinning.

“Li Li!”

Shanli Crow in the air uncontrollably started spinning rapidly.

This series of actions left the audience who hadn’t seen Qiao Sang’s previous matches a bit bewildered.

Good heavens, such a grand skill as Dark Shadow Control could be used like this?!

Ding Yanjing looked up at the spinning Shanli Crow, his heart sinking.

A mistake, but… it’s not a big problem.

After all, Shanli Crow’s anti-dizziness training during this period wasn’t for nothing, and the refreshing potions given by the school weren’t drunk in vain either.

Let it spin for a while, paralyze the opponent, then look for an opportunity… Almost instantly, Ding Yanjing had planned out his next strategy.

“Qun~”

Little Qunbao spun with its short toe for dozens of seconds, just like before, and then wanted to stop.

The timing is coming… Ding Yanjing stared intently at Treasure Hunting Fairy’s movements; the scene of its short toe lowering seemed like slow motion to him.

At this moment, Qiao Sang spoke: “Don’t stop!”

“Qun~”

Little Qunbao immediately straightened its short toe again and started spinning.

“Li!”

Shanli Crow spun in sync, letting out a miserable cry.

Ding Yanjing: “!!!”

Are you kidding me!

It shouldn’t be this sound. This cry wasn’t miserable enough… Qiao Sang listened to Shanli Crow’s miserable cry and always felt something was off.

How could its cry be so much lower than when Yabao was first spun?

If it was spun dizzy, it would either not cry at all, or the sound would go from very high to low. But Shanli Crow’s cry was clearly not like that.

It’s safer to keep spinning for a bit longer…
