Chapter 482: Yabao VS Red Dragon

Under the bright Moonlight, Ya Bao’s fur flowed freely backward with the evening breeze.

“Chi Chi.”

Scarlet Horned Dragon looked at its newly appeared opponent, its casual demeanor vanishing, replaced by an expression of interest.

Seeing Liao Xing Hound still powerful in mid-air, completely unharmed, Zhao Chuanyu instantly realized that Qiao Sang had sent out Ice Kexilu simply to stall for time!

Not only did he understand, but the audience in the stands also caught on.

The expressions of the audience members who had initially mocked Qiao Sang for being afraid of Scarlet Horned Dragon and surrendering became slightly stiff, while other spectators were also full of surprise, staring in astonishment at the imposing Liao Xing Hound.

Everyone had originally thought that Qiao Sang sent out Ice Kexilu to deplete some of Scarlet Horned Dragon’s energy and stamina, but it turned out that wasn’t the case at all!

Were their brains too simple?!

No, Qiao Sang’s thoughts were too meticulous!

After the first match, the second match immediately followed, and the time in between was too short.

Zhao Chuanyu’s Arrogant Poison Star’s hard resistance to damage and the expenditure of a large amount of energy to set up the Poison Field had never happened before; since there were no previous cases, Qiao Sang naturally couldn’t have thought of a countermeasure beforehand.

This meant that she had thought of a strategy to deal with the Poison Field and reverse the absolute disadvantage in less than half a minute.

Having great strength wasn’t enough; her mind also worked so quickly. In an instant, the audience’s attitude underwent a 720-degree turn.

“I was wrong, I’m sorry Qiao Sang, I actually just cursed her…”

“With this brain, anyone who tells me Qiao Sang’s academic performance isn’t good, I’ll be the first to stand up and scold them! If her brain is this good and her grades aren’t, then what is my brain?!”

“Incredible! I originally thought Scarlet Horned Dragon paired with the Poison Field was a guaranteed win, but it gave me such a huge surprise! Liao Xing Hound can stay in the air; as long as it doesn’t land, with its combat power, it might actually win the match!” The audience from Yu Hua region exclaimed excitedly.

The audience from Zhong Kong region next to them retorted, “Are you overthinking it? Even without the Poison Field, Scarlet Horned Dragon’s strength is still there. Besides, the poison in the sky is gone, but isn’t the poison on the ground still there?”

“Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang, I love you!” An excited audience member from Ancient Mist region stood up and waved.

“qu!”

As the whistle signaling the start of the match blew, all the spectators fixed their gaze on the arena, quietly settling down.

“Dragon Dive!” Zhao Chuanyu issued the command immediately.

“Chi Chi!”

Scarlet Horned Dragon flapped its wings forcefully, soaring high into the sky, then a brilliant light illuminated its body as it fiercely charged towards Ya Bao’s position.

If anyone paid attention, they would notice that the speed and power of this Dragon Dive were subtly faster than before.

Qiao Sang’s tone was calm:

“Beat it!”

“Ya!”

Ya Bao raised its head and let out an excited cry, and light, the same color as the Moonlight, shimmered around its body.

Just as Scarlet Horned Dragon was about to collide, Ya Bao vanished from its spot, reappearing higher in the sky.

Then, it suddenly opened its mouth, and a rotating Flame Vortex precisely shot towards the Scarlet Horned Dragon, which had stopped after its attack missed.

Scarlet Horned Dragon reacted quickly; though it couldn’t dodge in time, it instinctively used its massive wings to shield itself.

The flames were exceptionally dazzling in the night, and the audience clearly saw a red burn mark appear on Scarlet Horned Dragon’s wing!

The audience seats instantly stirred:

“I didn’t see wrong, did I! Flame Vortex actually caused damage to Scarlet Horned Dragon!”

“Holy crap, I didn’t notice before, but now why do I feel like Scarlet Horned Dragon’s reaction speed is so slow compared to Liao Xing Hound?!”

“No, I just wanted to ask! What is that glowing thing on Liao Xing Hound?!”

“I don’t know!”

“Damn it, I want to protest! Why isn’t there a Commentator for the National Competition?! Are we high school students not worthy?!”

“This, this… how does it feel a bit like Moonlight Power?!” Among the students of Di Du Zhi Shang Yu Shou High School, a girl who recognized Moonlight Power suddenly widened her eyes and stammered.

“What is Moonlight Power?” asked the boy next to her.

“It’s a characteristic of Fairy-type Pets. When under Moonlight, no matter what they do, their state is twice their usual,” the girl explained.

The boy scoffed, completely disbelieving:

“What time is it, and you’re still joking like this? Liao Xing Hound is a Fire-type and Superpower System Pet; how could it have a Fairy-type Pet’s characteristic?”

The girl anxiously said, “I don’t want to believe it either! But Liao Xing Hound’s current appearance definitely shows signs of Moonlight Power! You forgot, my mom has a Little Fairy Qi Qi, and it has Moonlight Power!”

Students able to attend Di Du Zhi Shang Yu Shou High School generally came from well-off families and were in the same social circle, so they mostly knew what Pets their elders had.

As a student of Di Du Zhi Shang Yu Shou High School, everyone hoped Zhao Chuanyu would win, so the girl couldn’t possibly be lying at this critical moment.

The boy believed her, and he was stunned.

His heart trembled as he looked at the figure on the field, surrounded by shimmering light, and swallowed: “Zhao Chuanyu… he won’t lose, will he…”

…

Moonlight Power?!

Zhao Chuanyu found it difficult to control his expression, his face showing obvious shock and bewilderment.

How could Liao Xing Hound have Moonlight Power?!

Isn’t that a Fairy-type characteristic?!

During the few seconds he was dazed, intense clashes had already resumed in mid-air.

After being hit, Scarlet Horned Dragon became even more excited.

“Chi Chi!”

It raised its head and let out a piercing cry.

Invisible sound waves immediately reverberated through the battle arena.

The air vibrated, and the sound waves entered Ya Bao’s ears, causing its figure to pause involuntarily.

Scarlet Horned Dragon seized the opportunity to open its mouth, and a wave containing terrifying energy instantly shot out from its mouth.

The audience immediately recognized this as a Dragon-type high-level skill—Dragon Wave.

In mid-air, just as Dragon Wave was about to strike Ya Bao, Ya Bao once again vanished.

“Bang!!!”

Dragon Wave exploded in the air, with heatwaves and shockwaves raging, creating a massive sound.

Scarlet Horned Dragon showed a wary expression, then suddenly it sensed something and abruptly looked up, only to see its opponent appear directly above its head!

“Ya!”

Ya Bao’s expression was excited; it raised a claw, and its sharp claws, already imbued with fierce flames, clawed downwards forcefully.

Scarlet Horned Dragon’s defense was astonishing; even at such close range and with the Flame Claw enhanced by Moonlight Power, it didn’t send it flying to the ground, but merely pushed it back a few meters in the air, tearing off a layer of its skin.

At this moment, Zhao Chuanyu finally recovered from his shock. He looked at the situation on the field and quickly said:

“Heat Wave!”

“Chi Chi!”

Scarlet Horned Dragon flapped its wings forcefully, and a super-hot wave of heat immediately surged towards Ya Bao’s direction.

The heatwave swept through, and the super-high temperature caused the air around Ya Bao to distort slightly.

The opportunity has come!

Zhao Chuanyu’s heart stirred, and he loudly proclaimed: “Dragon Star Cluster!”

As a Fire-type Pet, Heat Wave wouldn’t cause much damage to Liao Xing Hound. All Zhao Chuanyu needed to do was use the gap created by Heat Wave obstructing Liao Xing Hound to give Scarlet Horned Dragon a chance to use its ultimate move!

Dragon Star Cluster, which would cause a shower of meteors to fall from the sky, was among the top-tier offensive high-level skills. If it weren’t for the significant reduction in the Pet’s special attack after use due to recoil, it would likely be categorized as an Ultra-level skill. Qiao Sang heard the opponent’s command, her expression calm, and she said:

“Mars Rain!”
