Chapter 1007: Dragon Sound Blast (Recommended to read together with tomorrow's chapter)
The competition rules for each regional tournament are roughly the same; some regions have restrictions not only on the arena boundaries but even on altitude.
Because Flying-type pet beasts are the most popular in the Zhongkong region, there are no altitude restrictions there.
She had specifically looked into the competition rules and even asked Teacher Teacher Mi Jiala about the effective range of Dragon Sound Blast at various proficiency levels before deciding on this plan. She hadn't expected that after preparing for so long, it would turn out to be a false alarm.
For a moment, Qiao Sang was both speechless and couldn't help but marvel that her golden finger was indeed quite formidable.
As long as Like Ya Bao and the others awaken a super-tier skill, they can execute it smoothly, which almost made her forget that even if a super-tier skill is awakened and learned, it is not that easy to execute.
Yuan Tianlong was slightly disappointed, then he looked up at the Yan Yan Jia Ou that had turned into a red dot, and a touch of embarrassment welled up in his heart.
It seems Qiao Sang had known long ago that the Saw-Sound Dragon possessed the Dragon Sound Blast skill, which is why she had the Yan Yan Jia Ou teleport so far away...
On the commentary stage, Tian Yiwan smiled and said:
"Contestant Yuan Tianlong called out Dragon Sound Blast; this is a Dragon-type super-tier skill. However, the Saw-Sound Dragon did not execute it. I wonder if it was unable to execute it at that moment, or if it gave up because it saw the Yan Yan Jia Ou teleport to a position too far away."
Tang Xueran pondered and said:
"It seems that in the previous round, Contestant Yuan Tianlong had the Disaster Dragon execute Dragon Luck Field not only to increase the Saw-Sound Dragon's attack power but also to increase the probability of the Saw-Sound Dragon executing Dragon Sound Blast."
The crowd began to discuss animatedly.
Everyone had seen the Saw-Sound Dragon's head-shaking motion; in fact, it was not hard to guess that the Saw-Sound Dragon had failed to execute it.
If Dragon Sound Blast had been successfully executed just now, it would definitely have triggered shock and cheers throughout the arena, greatly boosting morale and attracting a large number of fans. Unfortunately, it failed, and the crowd's mentality remained relatively calm. Recalling that Qiao Sang's Yan Yan Jia Ou knew the super-tier skill Radiant Sun Impact, they couldn't help but begin to compare the Saw-Sound Dragon and the Yan Yan Jia Ou once again, sparking discussion.
Amidst the discussion, on the field, a streak of fire shot straight down from high altitude.
Immediately after, one became two, two became four, four became eight, and eight became countless.
Countless streaks of fire shot straight down from high altitude; the scene was so magnificent, it was as if countless red meteorites were falling with flaming tails.
Everyone's gaze was instantly attracted, stopping their discussions. Many people showed expressions of amazement and took out their phones one after another to record this spectacular scene.
Ye Xiangting, who always loved posting on her social media, did not take out her phone; she stared fixedly at the field, unwilling to miss a single second.
Teacher Mi Jiala had amazing eyesight; in her line of sight, it was a group of Yan Yan Jia Ou completely wrapped in flames, rushing down from high altitude.
So many clones... Yuan Tianlong recognized at a glance that these were all clones and spoke:
"Giant Sound."
"Saw-Saw!!!"
The Saw-Sound Dragon opened its mouth and let out a piercing roar.
Invisible sound waves rippled outward.
All the "red meteorites" shattered instantly and disappeared.
In the night sky, only one Yan Yan Jia Ou remained, head facing upward, mouth open, spraying an orb of crimson energy condensed with violent power upward.
"Saw!"
Seeing this, the Saw-Sound Dragon opened its mouth again.
However, after calling out only one character, a Yan Yan Jia Ou suddenly appeared in front of it, opened its mouth, and flames swept over its sharp teeth.
The Saw-Sound Dragon instinctively condensed a silver-white light on its tail and swung it fiercely forward.
With a "bang," the Yan Yan Jia Ou disappeared under the lash of the Dragon Tail.
At the same time, the crimson energy orb that had risen to high altitude exploded.
A rain of fire descended suddenly, and the sky above the entire arena was dyed red for a moment.
Using clones to attract attention, letting the main body successfully execute Meteor Shower... Yuan Tianlong spoke:
"Together."
The Saw-Sound Dragon immediately understood its Tamer's meaning. With a flap of its wings, a layer of translucent light covered its entire body, and then it turned into a streak of white light and rushed toward Like Ya Bao in the high altitude.
At this time, the rain of fire had already fallen, but the Saw-Sound Dragon seemed completely unable to feel pain; it passed through the rain of fire, rushing upward with unstoppable momentum.
When the distance was only about ten meters, Like Ya Bao teleported and disappeared, appearing hundreds of meters away.
The "white light" did not stop there and continued to rush upward.
Qiao Sang thought of something, her expression changed, and she shouted:
"Stop it!"
At the same time the command was issued, the Saw-Sound Dragon, transformed into white light, opened its mouth, and a silver-white energy orb containing terrifying power was instantly sprayed out from its mouth.
The next second, Like Ya Bao appeared in the inevitable path of the silver-white energy orb rising upward, extended its sharp claws, and scorching flames instantly condensed on them.
Just as Like Ya Bao was about to grab downward, the "white light" rushed over.
Like Ya Bao sensed the crisis, teleported and disappeared, appearing at a higher position, raised its claws, and grabbed fiercely at the silver-white energy orb that was just passing by, carrying burning flames.
"Bang!"
With a loud noise, the silver-white energy orb exploded.
Fortunately, it was stopped... Seeing this, Qiao Sang let out a long sigh of relief.
Dragon Meteor Shower, a Dragon-type high-tier skill, drops meteorites with Dragon attributes from the sky.
In terms of visual effects, it is similar to Meteor Shower, but some people have specifically studied and compared them; when the level and skill proficiency of Fire-type pet beasts and Dragon-type pet beasts are the same, the power of Dragon Meteor Shower is superior to that of Meteor Shower.
Now the effect of Dragon Luck Field is still there; under the blessing of Dragon Luck Field, the power of Dragon Meteor Shower is likely to be ridiculously large.
Qiao Sang looked at the Saw-Sound Dragon in the rain of fire, whose body was glowing with a faint light, as if there was a barrier around it, and her brain worked rapidly.
The Saw-Sound Dragon executed Protect; this skill will cause it to enter a protected state, protecting itself from the influence of the vast majority of moves. If the proficiency is high enough, it can even completely withstand the opponent's attacks, but continuous execution is prone to failure.
It seems that before the effect of Protect disappears, Meteor Shower will not cause too much damage to it...
Qiao Sang then thought of something and looked up at the high altitude.
She saw the night sky was deep, with only a few stars hanging in the night curtain, and no moonlight.
"Sunny Day." Qiao Sang withdrew her gaze and spoke.
Sunny Day cannot be executed at night, but this skill can at least influence some changes in the weather.
"Ya!"
Like Ya Bao looked up at the sky and called out.
The black clouds in the sky dispersed a little, revealing the bright moonlight.
The Saw-Sound Dragon's eyes flickered; it also looked up, opened its mouth, and a silver-white energy orb was sprayed out from its mouth again.
Qiao Sang: "!!!"
Damn it, I didn't hear Yuan Tianlong's command, I was careless!
"Like Ya Bao!" Qiao Sang shouted.
"Ya!" Like Ya Bao teleported to the inevitable path of the silver-white energy orb rising, opened its mouth, revealed its sharp teeth, swept up flames, and bit down fiercely.
At the same time, on the other side, the Saw-Sound Dragon remembered its Tamer's command to execute this type of skill just like the opponent, opened its mouth, and another silver-white energy orb was sprayed upward from its mouth.
"Bang!"
With a loud noise, the silver-white energy orb that Like Ya Bao was biting exploded.
Immediately after, there was another loud "bang."
The other silver-white energy orb exploded in the high altitude.
Countless meteorites fell downward, each one a hundred or even hundreds of times the size of a spark.
Meteorites mixed with sparks fell continuously, as if it were the end of the world.
Everyone looked at this terrifying scene and couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
"The Saw-Sound Dragon finally executed Dragon Meteor Shower!" Although Tian Yiwan was biased toward Qiao Sang, he was not a true fan. Seeing this scene, he subconsciously said excitedly:
"After so many times of Like Ya Bao stopping it, the Saw-Sound Dragon's Dragon Meteor Shower was still executed!"
Tang Xueran looked at the scene on the field and sighed:
"Dragon Meteor Shower plus Meteor Shower, I dare not imagine what kind of destruction the arena will suffer. The Saw-Sound Dragon has Protect to briefly defend against the Meteor Shower attack; I don't know if Like Ya Bao has any defensive means to withstand Dragon Meteor Shower."
Attack is defense... Qiao Sang said loudly:
"Charge!"
"Ya-Ya!"
Like Ya Bao's whole body instantly condensed with scorching flames, turned into a streak of fire, and rushed forward.
Countless meteorites and sparks fell vertically from the black night sky, dragging out brilliant silver-white trajectories between heaven and earth, as if dividing heaven and earth vertically one by one.
"Bang-Bang-Bang!!!"
Under the rain of fire, the entire arena stirred up terrifying heat; meteorites and fire rain constantly bombarded the ground, making deafening explosion sounds.
The entire arena was unrecognizable, like an abyss.
In the high altitude, Like Ya Bao, transformed into a streak of fire, shuttled through the rain of fire; encountering falling meteorites, it did not avoid them and rushed straight at them.
One meteorite after another shattered directly under the impact of the fire streak.
Using attack to replace defense... Yuan Tianlong looked up at the moonlight that had appeared, his heart sinking slightly.
There is not much time left before the disappearance of Dragon Luck Field; I must try Dragon Sound Blast again...
As thoughts flashed, the fire streak passed through the rain of fire, broke through one meteorite after another, and rushed straight in front of the Saw-Sound Dragon.
The Saw-Sound Dragon flapped its wings, turned into white light to quickly pull away, then opened its mouth and sprayed a silver-white beam of light toward the position where the fire streak was attacking.
The fire streak moved upward a little, dodged it easily, and continued to rush toward the Saw-Sound Dragon's position.
Just as the Saw-Sound Dragon moved again, its Tamer's voice sounded:
"Dive." The Saw-Sound Dragon folded its wings, silver-white light instantly covered its whole body, and with terrifying momentum, it dived toward the fire streak.
Dragon Dive, a Dragon-type high-tier skill, releases shocking momentum, intimidating while colliding with the opponent, sometimes causing the opponent to flinch... Qiao Sang recognized the Saw-Sound Dragon's skill, her heartbeat subconsciously accelerated, feeling vaguely excited and stimulated.
In the streak of fire, Like Ya Bao's face showed an excited expression looking at the silver-white light coming toward it, and it used all its strength to collide with it.
"Bang!!!"
The fire streak and white light collided together; the terrifying shockwave mixed with flames exploded, ravaging everything around.
In the shockwave, the Saw-Sound Dragon and Like Ya Bao flew backward to different positions, and at the same time fell heavily to the ground.
The arena shattered instantly; two shocking giant craters appeared on the ground that was already pitted.
Meteorites and fire rain were still falling continuously.
"Bang-Bang-Bang!"
Explosion sounds rang out continuously.
"Saw-Saw!"
"Ya-Ya!"
The Saw-Sound Dragon and Like Ya Bao let out miserable screams in the giant craters.
On the commentary stage, Tian Yiwan said: "The Saw-Sound Dragon's Dragon Dive and the Yan Yan Jia Ou's Flare Blitz collided together! Under the blessing of Dragon Luck Field and Moonlight Power, the power of both has been significantly improved!"
"The power is terrifyingly strong; both the Saw-Sound Dragon and the Flame Yan Jia Ou have fallen to the ground. We can see that the clash just now was evenly matched."
"However, the protection on the Saw-Sound Dragon seems to have vanished, and the Flame Yan Jia Ou is no longer using offensive means as defense. It is unclear which of them can withstand this wave of Dragon Meteor and Fire Meteor."
Tang Xueran said thoughtfully:
"The effect of the Dragon Luck field is about to pass, and the power of moonlight can trigger traits as long as the moonlight is still present. If the Flame Yan Jia Ou can withstand this wave of Dragon Meteor, the subsequent situation might lean in the Flame Yan Jia Ou's favor."
Before the Saw-Sound Dragon and the Flame Yan Jia Ou began their battle, the vast majority of people felt that the Saw-Sound Dragon's strength was superior, including Tang Xueran.
But after the clash just now, everyone has gradually lost that feeling.
"Continue!" Qiao Sang shouted.
Like Ya Bao's only defensive skill is the 2.0 version of the Flame Shield, but this skill can only be cast in place, which is equivalent to being a target. Even if it could withstand the Dragon Meteor, it could not withstand the Saw-Sound Dragon's other ultimate attacks.
Only attacks with constant high-speed movement are most suitable for defense.
However, she also knows that Like Ya Bao will not blindly use attacks for defense; when it is possible to attack, it will do so without hesitation.
Just like just now.
"Yaya..."
Like Ya Bao is covered in wounds, and its flame wings on both sides have already shrunk by a circle. It stands up with difficulty, turns into firelight, and charges straight ahead once again.
"Saw-saw..."
At the same time, the Saw-Sound Dragon uses its wings to prop itself up from the ground and stands up.
At this moment, Yuan Tianlong spoke:
"Bite!"
The firelight charges straight over, and the Saw-Sound Dragon claws the ground hard, staring fixedly at the incoming firelight.
"Bang!"
With a loud noise, the firelight hits its body head-on.
Under the impact of the firelight, the Saw-Sound Dragon is dragged backward, carving a deep trench.
In the process of being dragged and carving the trench in the ground, it endures the pain, grabs Like Ya Bao tightly with both wings, reveals its sharp fangs, instantly condenses a silvery-white light, and bites down fiercely.
"Yaya!"
Like Ya Bao lets out a miserable cry.
This is it! Yuan Tianlong's eyes light up, and he shouts loudly:
"Dragon Sound Explosion!"
Qiao Sang's expression changes drastically.
No wonder, no wonder Yuan Tianlong's attack methods later all chose to clash head-on!
He was trying to control Like Ya Bao, not letting it teleport outside the range of the Dragon Sound Explosion!
It is not that there is no way at all; at such a close distance, she could choose to have Like Ya Bao use telekinesis to control the Saw-Sound Dragon's mouth.
It is just that this can only resolve the crisis for a moment, not completely eliminate it.
To completely eliminate the crisis, she still needs to solve the root problem: the Saw-Sound Dragon.
The Saw-Sound Dragon's defense is higher than Like Ya Bao's, and Like Ya Bao has already suffered too heavy an injury.
This match cannot be dragged on like this anymore... Qiao Sang looks at the Dragon Meteor constantly falling and Like Ya Bao, whose flame wings are only half their usual size. She hardens her heart and shouts:
"Lava Purgatory!"
Lava what?
Purgatory?
Lava Purgatory?
The crowd looks at each other, revealing expressions of astonishment and confusion, doubting their own ears for a moment.
That super-tier skill, Lava Purgatory?!
"Saw-saw!!!"
Just as everyone was doubting whether the command Qiao Sang issued was the super-tier skill Lava Purgatory, on the field, the Saw-Sound Dragon lets out a heart-palpitating, shocking roar.
The field defense system, which had never been activated in this regional competition, was activated for the first time.
A translucent barrier immediately enveloped the field.
