Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 450: rogue pig

Xun~

As expected, she sent out the Treasure Hunting Fairy… Wu Hengxu was not surprised to see the Pet in the distance.

Qiao Sang, 15 years old, with two High-level Pets and one intermediate-level Pet, advanced to the National Competition with a perfect record from the qualifiers. In the divisional competition, when she encountered opponents with only two intermediate-level Pets, she almost always sent out her Treasure Hunting Fairy to achieve two consecutive wins.

The moment he knew his opponent was Qiao Sang, Wu Hengxu couldn’t help but curse inwardly, “Damn it,” feeling incredibly unlucky.

Without a High-level Pet, he hadn’t expected to go far in the National Competition, but what he hadn’t expected even more was to encounter a player like a final boss in the first round.

What kind of rotten luck is this…

Compared to his Yu Beast Master’s unstable state of mind, the Rogue Evil Pig, holding a black flower in its mouth, looked at its opponent, a grin on its face, revealing an eager expression.

Rogue Evil Pig, a Ground-type and Evil-type dual-attribute intermediate-level Pet, with an impulsive personality, is famously fond of fighting and causing trouble. Since birth, it has always held a black flower in its mouth, and without the flower, it feels insecure… Qiao Sang looked at the pig-like Pet in front of her, which had many black stripes on its body, three sharp claws on each limb, and a black flower in its mouth, and its information appeared in her mind.

Xun~

Little Xunbao stared at the flower in its opponent’s mouth, showing an interested expression.

Er Er…

The Rogue Evil Pig noticed Little Xunbao’s gaze, and its eyes instantly became full of vigilance.

qu!

At this moment, a Mechanic-type Pet wearing a referee badge blew the whistle signaling the start of the match.

Little Xunbao quickly disappeared from its spot.

“Who do you think will win this round?” In the stands, in the area with the banner that read “Wu Hengxu, You’re the Best! Wu Hengxu, You’re the Strongest!”, a group of students in dark blue school uniforms were discussing.

A girl who had just used a Pet Identifier to look up Little Xunbao’s information said, “It should be Wu Hengxu. I just checked, the opponent’s Pet is called Treasure Hunting Fairy, and it’s a Ghost-type Pet.”

It’s common knowledge that Evil-type counters Ghost-type. Evil-type Pets are usually cruel and cunning, capable of breaking the Ghost Binding ability of Ghost-type Pets. Some Evil-type skills, such as Malicious Pursuit and Wild Strike, can be very effective against Ghost-type Pets.

“But didn’t you see the constellation array of this Qiao Sang just now? It’s green! A full three Pets! I heard she was first in the divisional competition held in the Ancient Mist region,” the short-haired girl next to her worriedly said.

“Is it the one whose Liao Xing Hound’s Mars Rain reached Profound Meaning?” asked a boy wearing glasses.

“That’s right,” the short-haired girl nodded.

The classmate holding the banner next to them listened to the conversation and silently lowered the banner.

“But she’s sending out Treasure Hunting Fairy now, even if the final result is a loss, at least she can win this round!” said the girl who had previously used the Pet Identifier to look up Little Xunbao’s information.

The classmate holding the banner immediately raised it high again.

“But Qiao Sang’s Treasure Hunting Fairy also has Superpower attributes, not only can it use Dark Shadow Control, but it has also trained it to a three-dimensional mode,” the short-haired girl said.

The classmate holding the banner silently lowered it again.

“We shouldn’t boost others’ morale and dampen our own! Even if others think Wu Hengxu will lose, we shouldn’t!” the girl with the Pet Identifier said very seriously.

The short-haired girl stopped talking.

The classmate holding the banner instantly perked up and raised the banner over his head.

qu!

At this moment, the whistle signaling the end of the match blew.

Immediately after, the Host’s voice reached everyone’s ears: “First match, Yuhua Region, Saint Water Middle School, Qiao Sang wins!”

The students in dark blue school uniforms: “!!!”

One minute ago.

Little Xunbao on the field concealed its form, and the next second, its eyes glowing with purple light, it appeared in front of the Rogue Evil Pig.

Although Wu Hengxu had no hope for himself, as the school’s only seedling in the National Competition, the coach had thoroughly explained all opponent information and countermeasures.

After knowing his opponent was Qiao Sang, he hadn’t watched the matches in the previous few hours but had instead been with the coach arranging a series of tactics for this match.

Losing was one thing, but this was a national live broadcast, and he absolutely could not lose without dignity, otherwise, it would not only be embarrassing for him but also for their school!

“Shadow Clone!”

Just as Little Xunbao disappeared, Wu Hengxu quickly issued the command.

When Little Xunbao appeared in front of the Rogue Evil Pig, five identical copies of the Rogue Evil Pig appeared around it.

The Rogue Evil Pig that met Little Xunbao’s purple eyes showed no reaction.

Xun~

Little Xunbao’s eyes lost their purple glow, and it concealed its form again.

At the same time, a black tooth formed by Evil-type energy condensed in front of the mouths of the six Rogue Evil Pigs and bit fiercely at the spot where Little Xunbao had been before it disappeared.

Bite, an intermediate-level Evil-type skill, attacks with teeth condensed from Evil-type energy, with a certain chance of making the opponent flinch, and causes great damage to Ghost-type Pets.

If Little Xunbao couldn’t teleport, with this Rogue Evil Pig’s reaction speed, the chance of being bitten would likely be as high as 70%. Qiao Sang calmly analyzed the situation before her.

Her gaze swept over the six identical Rogue Evil Pigs, then suddenly fixed on a black flower held in the mouth of one particular Rogue Evil Pig.

A piece of information flashed quickly through Qiao Sang’s mind: The Rogue Evil Pig values its black flower like its life; whoever tries to take its black flower will be fought to the death, even its own Yu Beast Master is no exception.

As this thought emerged, Qiao Sang immediately said:

“Burn its flower!”

Xun!

The invisible Little Xunbao let out a cry, and three ghostly green ghost fires, emanating a chilling aura, suddenly appeared out of thin air, randomly striking at the flowers held in the mouths of three of the Rogue Evil Pigs.

The second Rogue Evil Pig from the left immediately showed a fierce look in its eyes.

As the Yu Beast Master of the Rogue Evil Pig, Wu Hengxu could naturally sense which one was its main body.

He clearly knew that none of these ghost fires had targeted the main body.

Good opportunity! Wu Hengxu seized the moment and quickly said:

“Throw it upwards!”

Throw, an intermediate-level Evil-type skill, condenses Evil-type energy onto an item and throws it at the target.

The black flower held in the Rogue Evil Pig’s mouth was its item.

At the same time, Qiao Sang spoke:

“The second one on the left.”

The three ghost fires struck the flowers held in the mouths of three of the Rogue Evil Pigs, and along with the black flowers, these three Rogue Evil Pigs disappeared.

The remaining three Rogue Evil Pigs used their claws to take out the black flowers held in their mouths, stood with their feet apart, raised their right arms high, and made a throwing motion.

Immediately after, a black Evil-type energy enveloped the black flowers.

Just as the three black flowers were about to be thrown, a black shadow suddenly shot out from the ground, firmly binding the entire body of the second Rogue Evil Pig from the left, leaving only its tiny black eyes and the black flower exposed.

Xun~

Little Xunbao appeared, grinned, and extended its claw towards the black flower.

The Rogue Evil Pig’s eyes widened.

Little Xunbao’s claw got closer and closer to the black flower.

The Rogue Evil Pig’s eyes widened even more.

Jie jie jie~

Little Xunbao covered its mouth with its other claw, letting out a villainous laugh, and then its eyes glowed with purple light.

The Rogue Evil Pig involuntarily closed its eyes.

The black shadow released its grip.

Bang!

The Rogue Evil Pig, with its eyes closed, fell peacefully to the ground.

The whistle signaling the end of the match blew.

Thus, the match lasted one minute and one second.
