Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 547: calm!
Seeing this, the Commentator’s eyes lit up, and he said with a slightly excited expression: “The Extreme Sky Great Bird seized the opportunity to break free from the Superpower’s restraints and used Brave Bird Attack. It used the speed of this move to approach its opponent, and then instantly switched to Air Evacuation to suffocate the opponent! I didn’t expect that Frida only took a moment to turn the tide!”
“I didn’t expect it either,” Wang Xuezhi exclaimed, “that Brave Bird Attack could stop in time.”
“No one expected it,” the Commentator said with admiration.
“It’s not easy to stop an attack mid-charge. This requires an extremely high degree of body control, otherwise, it could easily lead to self-injury.”
“And the instant switch from Brave Bird Attack to Air Evacuation,” Wang Xuezhi continued, “I originally thought the Extreme Sky Great Bird would directly attack this unknown Pet, but now that I think about it, switching to Air Evacuation was the best choice.”
“This unnamed Pet has Superpower System attributes and can teleport. If it were Brave Bird Attack, there’s a high chance it would dodge, but switching to Air Evacuation would make it feel suffocated directly, perhaps even before it could use teleportation.”
“For Pets that have never experienced suffocation, sudden suffocation is a very painful thing.”
“Now this unnamed Pet can’t breathe. Even if the Extreme Sky Great Bird does nothing and just stands around it, Frida has won this match.”
Although Frida’s instant reversal of the situation was stunning, not everyone present was her fan. Some spectators who bet on Qiao Sang’s victory were very displeased upon hearing the commentary.
“Is this Commentator biased towards Frida? Clearly, the battle rhythm was in Qiao Sang’s hands from the beginning, and it only just reversed. How can he praise her so much? A General-level Pet was suppressed by a High-level Pet at the start; if it were me, I’d be too embarrassed to say anything.”
“Brother, don’t get emotional. Frida’s move was impeccable. Besides, who would have thought a High-level Pet’s Superpower could directly control a General-level Pet? Didn’t Frida seize the opportunity to counterattack? And it was a one-hit knockout. I think the result will be out soon.”
“Ahhh! Qiao Sang, don’t lose! I put all my secret stash on you!”
“What were you thinking? Frida and Qiao Sang, you bet on Qiao Sang?”
“I got carried away with betting! I didn’t even look at the opponent’s information!”
“I looked. The odds were 1:3. I hope Qiao Sang can win one round.”
“You’re a real talent too. Her opponent is Frida, and you still bet on Qiao Sang winning a round.”
“Is there a problem? Frida still has two High-level Pets. What if she summons another Pet to battle in the second or third round?”
…
In the private room.
You Na looked at the scene on the arena and sighed, “Qiao Sang is already much better than I imagined. I thought the Liao Xing Hound would lose as soon as the Extreme Sky Great Bird appeared. I didn’t expect it to be affected by Air Evacuation only now.”
Tang Yi looked down without speaking.
At this moment, You Na suddenly asked:
“I already explained to you earlier that Frida’s General-level Pet has a characteristic that specifically counters Fire-type. Why did you still ask me to bet on Qiao Sang winning?”
What a joke. They both came from Blue Star, and Qiao Sang was their Dragon Country’s third-year National Campus Pet Beast League champion. Of course, they had to show some support. Besides, it was only 1000 alliance coins. If it was gone, it was gone. He had already earned enough just now… Tang Yi said seriously:
“You haven’t seen Qiao Sang’s National Campus Pet Beast League. She won’t lose that easily.”
You Na looked at the arena, her gaze filled with confusion.
She didn’t understand why Tang Yi still thought Qiao Sang wouldn’t lose the match, even with things as they were.
…
On the arena.
Ya Bao’s expression was pained, its mouth wide open, looking as if it couldn’t breathe.
Calm down, calm down, the match isn’t over yet… Qiao Sang took a deep breath, her mind working furiously.
The Extreme Sky Great Bird switched from Brave Bird Attack to Air Evacuation, which means that while using Air Evacuation, it cannot use other moves. Otherwise, there would be no need for it to stop the Brave Bird Attack. Not taking this opportunity to follow up with a blow further illustrates this point…
It wants to make Ya Bao suffocate and faint directly…
Under normal circumstances, Ya Bao should be able to hold its breath for a minute, but being forced to suffocate suddenly and holding one’s breath intentionally are two completely different things…
Under forced suffocation, the pain will be amplified, and the time it can hold its breath, which was originally a minute, will also shorten…
I need to get Ya Bao to calm down quickly and then interrupt the Extreme Sky Great Bird’s Air Evacuation…
Thinking of this, Qiao Sang immediately shouted, “Ya Bao! Calm down first!”
Calm down? Frida heard this and curled her lips, then said, “Claw.”
Although Claw is just a common low-level skill in the Flying-type, the Extreme Sky Great Bird has trained it to the Profound Meaning level. Coupled with its own strength, it can cause some damage even to General-level Pets of the same rank.
Qiao Sang’s words reached Ya Bao’s ears.
At this moment, the Extreme Sky Great Bird raised its claws high, drawing several exquisite arcs, like several flashes of cold light, accurately striking towards it.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang instantly understood.
The Extreme Sky Great Bird cannot use energy-based skills while performing Air Evacuation! However, pure physical attack skills can be used!
It’s too late… Qiao Sang’s heart sank. Issuing commands now is completely too late.
If it were normal times, there would be no need to fear this move, but now Ya Bao is in a state of suffocation. Let alone its reaction ability, its attention might not even be focused on the opponent.
Ya Bao… Qiao Sang looked at Ya Bao’s figure and couldn’t help but worry.
At the same time.
Calm… down… Ya Bao’s mind flashed with these two words spoken by its Yu Beast Master.
Sound cannot travel in a vacuum, but Qiao Sang’s voice somehow reached Ya Bao’s ears.
Its consciousness was already starting to blur, and the opponent’s figure was already appearing as double vision in its eyes.
“Ya…”
Calm… down…
Ya Bao’s mind seemed to hear its Yu Beast Master say these two words again.
Its eyes were unfocused, its breathing heavy, and the energy within its body continuously boiled, but it was as if something on its surface was suppressing it, preventing it from being released.
Calm… down…
Calm. Down.
Calm down!
“Ya!”
Sharp claws flashed with a keen cold light, tearing fiercely into Ya Bao’s body.
Ya Bao was not knocked down. Its eyes became resolute, staring intently at the opponent in front of it, directly enduring the opponent’s sharp claws and lunging forward!
It bit into the Extreme Sky Great Bird’s shoulder and neck.
Bite, a move Ya Bao knew since its Fire Fang Dog days, but had never really used.
Skills performed by Pets of different levels naturally have different effects.
Ya Bao is now a High-level Pet, with sharp fangs and strong biting power. Even though the level of Bite is not high, it still made the Extreme Sky Great Bird feel pain.
“Extreme Sky!”
The Extreme Sky Great Bird shrieked, and the white light on its body instantly dimmed.
Frida’s expression changed, and she shouted, “Don’t stop!”
If Air Evacuation were interrupted at this moment, it would give the opponent a chance to catch their breath!
Just ten more seconds, and the opponent will definitely lose!
Hearing its Yu Beast Master’s words, the white light on the Extreme Sky Great Bird’s body regained its brightness.
At this moment, an unfamiliar, excited voice entered its ears:
“Destructive Beam!”
Then, it saw the opponent pressing down on it begin to condense white light in its mouth.
“Extreme Sky!”
The Extreme Sky Great Bird felt a sense of crisis. Its claws, still pressed against the opponent’s body, tore down fiercely again, trying to interrupt the skill.
But the opponent seemed to feel no pain, not moving at all.
“Dodge!” Frida shouted, somewhat anxiously.
3 seconds! Just three more seconds!
“Extreme Sky!”
The Extreme Sky Great Bird struggled with all its might, but its wings were severely pressed down, and it couldn’t break free immediately.
2 seconds.
Watching the white light condensing in the opponent’s mouth grow larger and larger, the Extreme Sky Great Bird knew it couldn’t dodge.
Its eyes became fierce, it opened its mouth, and a stream of blue light instantly shot upwards.
1 second.
“Boom!”
White light and blue light collided, a dramatic explosion sounded, and a violent air current swept wildly in all directions, centered around Ya Bao and the Extreme Sky Great Bird.
Everyone present subconsciously held their breath.
After an unknown amount of time, when the air current dissipated, what met everyone’s eyes were two Pets lying motionless on the ground.
The large virtual screen in the back row switched, displaying the results of this match:
“Qiao Sang VS Frida, 1:1”
