Chapter 1369: Little Xiao Xunbao VS Six-Winged Fire Bird

Violent Hot Wind, a combination skill of ordinary hot wind plus manic hot wind... Qiao Sang looked at the field full of dark red hot wind and her expression didn't change much.

She wasn't unfamiliar with this combination skill. In the video materials about Xia Huo's past, she had already let the Six-Winged Fire Bird cast this move many times.

Violent Hot Wind could make the temperature of the whole field enter a state of super high temperature, making the air as flammable as gasoline, strengthening the power of Fire-element attack skills, and at the same time, it could make the opponent in the Violent Hot Wind become manic and unable to sit still because of the manic energy in the air. It could be counted as killing several birds with one stone.

However, according to Xia Huo's past combat habits, this move was used in the middle and late stages. But now the competition had just started, and the Six-Winged Fire Bird used this move. It seemed she saw that the opponent was Little Xiao Xunbao and was prepared to use a powerful attack skill to directly "perish together"...

Qiao Sang collected her thoughts and said loudly:

"One."

As soon as these words came out, Xia Huo was stunned for a moment.

However, the next second, that small black shadow of the Underworld Ring Monarch appeared behind the main body of the Six-Winged Fire Bird.

Xia Huo didn't have time to think much and said immediately: "Array behind."

"Six-Winged!"

As soon as the words fell, the Six-Winged Fire Bird roared.

Immediately after, the air trembled, its clones disappeared, countless fire points appeared around its body, and a gorgeous and colorful red fire array appeared abruptly behind it.

The red fire array was huge, as if condensed from countless flames, and the surrounding air was distorted because of the high temperature.

The Underworld Ring Monarch saw this, widened its eyes, and it seemed to be frightened. However, it also seemed to be affected by the manic factors in the hot wind and didn't choose to leave calmly the first time.

Refining Flame Array, a Fire-element super-tier skill. After casting the Refining Flame Array, it would cast destructive flames from it to attack the target, and it would continue to exist for a period of time. Each time the flames cast from it would be stronger than the last... Qiao Sang had the information about the skill in front of her appear in her mind. Immediately, she thought of something, revealed a panicked expression, and shouted:

"Dodge!"

"It's too late." Xia Huo's mouth curled up.

"Boom!!!"

Like a volcanic eruption, a thick fire pillar full of destructive power suddenly shot out from the red fire array, impacting straight onto the Underworld Ring Monarch, which was too late to dodge.

In the audience area, everyone held their breath and stared at this scene.

Seeing the Underworld Ring Monarch's figure completely swallowed by the fire pillar erupted from the fire array, the discussion sounded instantly:

"How could the Underworld Ring Monarch not dodge."

"Xia Huo's eyes are really sharp. The Underworld Ring Monarch is so black and so small. When it appeared just now, I didn't find it at all."

"Qiao Sang's reaction is slower than the previous two rounds. Is it because she had a bye in the last round and hasn't sparred for too long?"

"I originally thought the Underworld Ring Monarch would at least take away two of Xia Huo's pet beasts even if it didn't encounter Fire Shui Xixing. I didn't expect it to be triggered to 'Together' and 'Borrowing Life' in the first game."

"'Together' can be triggered, but this 'Borrowing Life' still depends on probability, not 100% triggered."

"I think the Underworld Ring Monarch's reaction is still very fast. When the Six-Winged Fire Bird had so many clones, it precisely appeared behind the main body."

"What's the use of finding the main body? It didn't attack, and it was attacked instead."

"Was the instruction Qiao Sang gave initially one?"

"Right, she should have learned from Li Li Muxin."

"Learning this is useless. I feel it's not as good as her own previous sparring... Holy crap!"

The discussion stopped abruptly.

Everyone's faces revealed surprise, bewilderment, and excitement.

On the field, the fire pillar full of destructive energy didn't disappear after swallowing the Underworld Ring Monarch, but continued to cross the field.

A huge abyss black hole appeared out of thin air in the direction it crossed.

The fire pillar full of destructive energy all sank into it.

At the same time, an abyss black hole of the same size appeared under the Six-Winged Fire Bird.

Xia Huo's pupils shrank, realizing something was wrong, and shouted: "Go!"

Actually, without its Beast Tamer's instruction, the Six-Winged Fire Bird had already realized the crisis. It flapped its wings wanting to move.

But the moment it flapped its wings, it seemed to be controlled by some kind of power and couldn't move at all.

It was controlled... Xia Huo felt a chill in her heart and shouted: "Down array!"

Now there was no black shadow, so it could only be controlled by telekinesis. In the situation where mental power wasn't as good as the Underworld Ring Monarch, the Six-Winged Fire Bird absolutely couldn't break free from the control the first time.

Since it couldn't break free, it could only attack to resist the attack!

As she spoke, her gaze quickly scanned the entire field.

At the same time, fire points lit up around the Six-Winged Fire Bird again.

A giant fire array condensed from flames appeared under it.

"Boom!!!"

Before Xia Huo could lock onto the Underworld Ring Monarch's position, and before the fire pillar erupted from the fire array, the fire pillar full of destructive energy from the abyss black hole erupted first, impacting straight onto the Six-Winged Fire Bird's body.

"Six-Winged!!!"

The Six-Winged Fire Bird let out a miserable scream.

"Xun xun~"

High in the sky, the blue light in Little Xiao Xunbao's eyes disappeared, and it grinned, revealing two rows of exceptionally white teeth.

"The attack of the Six-Winged Fire Bird casting the Refining Flame Array was all transferred to the Six-Winged Fire Bird's body under the Underworld Ring Monarch's Shadow Penetration!" On the commentary stage, Nefretis's

"The flames that erupted from the Flame-Refining Array earlier didn't actually hit the Ghost Ring Monarch!" Aurora said excitedly. "What it hit was the Ghost Ring Monarch's substitute!"

"It seems contestant Qiao Sang was prepared to divert the Six-Winged Firebird's attack all along," Nephthys remarked with emotion. "That's why the command she issued was 'One'. Numerical commands like this must be communicated with the pet beast before the match so they can accurately grasp the meaning during the heat of battle. This 'One' command seems to represent having the Ghost Ring Monarch use a substitute to feint an attack, while the real body is actually behind it, diverting the Six-Winged Firebird's attack."

"Exactly," Aurora agreed, also moved. "Contestant Qiao Sang even pretended to be panicked afterward, letting the Ghost Ring Monarch's substitute dodge. I believe that expression fooled many people and pet beasts at the time."

He paused, then added, "With the boost from the Violent Heat Wind, the Flame-Refining Array's attack was strengthened quite a bit. Such a powerful attack, even for a Six-Winged Firebird with resistance to fire-type skills, probably couldn't be fully withstood."

"I think contestant Qiao Sang saw this too, which is why she deliberately slowed the pace of the attack, allowing the Six-Winged Firebird to successfully execute this move."

Nephthys remembered that the guest had been silent the whole time and took the initiative to chat: "How does Yin Yin Zhongsi see the Ghost Ring Monarch's performance just now? I remember you were very optimistic about it from the start."

"Yin Zhong..."

Yin Yin Zhongsi looked up at the tiny Xiao Xunbao, who looked like a black dot, and let out a cry, indicating that the Ghost Ring Monarch is truly small and truly black; it had searched for a long time before finding where it was...

On the field.

Tricked... Xia Huo gritted her teeth secretly, quickly adjusted her state, and issued a command: "Attack!"

In the air, the Flame-Refining Array that had been deployed earlier had not disappeared.

The Six-Winged Firebird plummeted downward. Just as it was about to hit the ground, it flapped its wings hard, forcibly stabilizing its form, and flew back into the air.

At the same time, a pillar of fire filled with destructive energy erupted from the Flame-Refining Array, shooting toward the direction where Xiao Xunbao was located.

Compared to before, this pillar of fire was even thicker, clearly possessing greater power.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang was not surprised at all.

The Six-Winged Firebird itself already had a certain resistance to fire-type skills. Based on judgments from previous match videos, it should have B-level Fire Attraction. It couldn't completely block an enhanced fire-type super-tier skill, but resisting some of it was no problem.

And the Flame-Refining Array move was never a one-time attack skill. As long as the pet beast executing the skill hadn't completely collapsed, it would be maintained for a period of time, continuously erupting with pillars of fire, each stronger than the last.

High in the air, Xiao Xunbao did not dodge.

It channeled energy, and an abyss black hole instantly appeared in front of it.

"Split," Xia Huo said quickly.

As soon as the words fell, countless Six-Winged Firebirds suddenly appeared across the entire field.

The abyss black hole appeared above the original position of the Six-Winged Firebird's real body.

"BOOM!!!"

The destructive pillar of fire shot straight down from it, burning every Six-Winged Firebird that existed along its path below to ashes.

The position of the real body has changed... Qiao Sang said:

"Three."

Hearing the command, Xia Huo took a deep breath and subconsciously became even more alert.

Xiao Xunbao disappeared in mid-air.

The moment it disappeared, the Flame-Refining Array once again shot a pillar of fire, even more destructive than the previous one, toward the direction where it had originally been.

The pillar of fire shot straight into the sky, hitting nothing.

Xiao Xunbao was no longer in its original position.

Not invisibility... Xia Huo scanned the entire field quickly. When she didn't spot Xiao Xunbao's silhouette immediately, she couldn't help but curse inwardly:

Damn it! With the Ghost Ring Monarch's color and size, it has too much of an advantage competing at night!

"Heat up!" Xia Huo issued the command.

Forcing out a ghost-type pet beast with such strange movements is simple: just keep using Violent Heat Wind on the field. The temperature and the manic factors contained within would force the Ghost Ring Monarch out of hiding.

It's a pity this is an outdoor match. If it were indoors, the Ghost Ring Monarch wouldn't be able to respond so calmly.

On the field, the remaining Six-Winged Firebirds flapped their wings simultaneously.

The moment they flapped their wings, a Ghost Ring Monarch with a body size of about sixty meters appeared out of thin air.

All the Six-Winged Firebirds looked over, and one of them suddenly flapped its wings faster.

However, Xia Huo's expression changed slightly, and she shouted: "Don't look!"

The Ghost Ring Monarch's eyes are golden, but this giant Ghost Ring Monarch's eyes were purple—it was using a skill!

Unfortunately, the command came too late.

The Six-Winged Firebirds were still following the previous command, flapping their wings, and waves of dark red hot wind swept across the field.

But soon, for some reason, the Six-Winged Firebirds disappeared one after another, leaving only one whose eyelids kept drooping, looking drowsy.

"The Ghost Ring Monarch's Dark Demon Shadow has used Hypnosis!" Nephthys announced loudly from the commentary booth.

"It's clearly just an intermediate skill, yet the effect seems quite good," Aurora remarked.

"Yin Zhong."

"Yin Zhong."

Yin Yin Zhongsi nodded in agreement and let out two cries, indicating that contestant Qiao Sang is clever; she knew the Ghost Ring Monarch is too small, so even if it appeared in front of the Six-Winged Firebird, the bird might not see its eyes immediately. That's why she specifically used Dark Demon Shadow before using Hypnosis, so the Six-Winged Firebird would notice its eyes.

On the field, the Six-Winged Firebird was drowsy, struggling to keep itself from falling completely asleep.

In the Flame-Refining Array, a thick, destructive pillar of fire shot outward.

Under the control of the Six-Winged Firebird, the flames in the Flame-Refining Array can attack a target, but if the Six-Winged Firebird doesn't control them, the flames in the array will just shoot randomly without a target.

"Xun xun..." Xiao Xunbao appeared on the head of the giant Ghost Ring Monarch.

It didn't grin; instead, its expression was somewhat irritable, clearly affected by the Violent Heat Wind.

Qiao Sang glanced at the Six-Winged Firebird that wasn't controlling the Flame-Refining Array and said, "Four."

As soon as the words fell, thick white light condensed on the heads of both the giant Ghost Ring Monarch and Xiao Xunbao, shooting straight toward the Six-Winged Firebird's location.

In the audience, everyone watched this scene and began to discuss:

"In this situation, wouldn't it be better to use Shadow Penetration to divert the Flame-Refining Array's attack? The Flame-Refining Array's attack power is clearly stronger."

"Maybe the Six-Winged Firebird has the Fire Attraction trait. Qiao Sang probably thinks it's better to have the Ghost Ring Monarch's own attack skill hit it."

"The Six-Winged Firebird's Fire Attraction trait isn't that strong. It almost fell to the ground under the first hit of the Flame-Refining Array, and now it's been several rounds; the Six-Winged Firebird definitely can't hold on."

"Do you know better, or does Qiao Sang? If you're so capable, you go up and compete."

"..."

Amidst the discussions, the giant Ghost Ring Monarch and Xiao Xunbao, with thick white light condensed on their heads, charged straight at the Six-Winged Firebird.

Just as they were about to attack the Six-Winged Firebird, Xia Huo curled her lips and shouted loudly:

"Attack!"

"Six-Wing!"

The drowsiness on the Six-Winged Firebird's face suddenly vanished. It let out a loud cry and opened its huge wings, tightly hugging the two figures attacking it.

"Bang!"

The powerful impact caused the Six-Winged Firebird to plummet, crashing into the ground and smashing a huge crater into the field.

"Six-Wing!"

The heavy blow to its body didn't make the Six-Winged Firebird loosen its wings. It gritted its teeth, showing a crazy expression, and flapped its wings even harder.

At the same time, a solid spherical flame barrier condensed around its body.

Inside the barrier, the giant Ghost Ring Monarch's silhouette disappeared, leaving only the Ghost Ring Monarch inside.

Everyone: "!!!"

"Xun xun!"

Xiao Xunbao seemed to realize something, its eyes widening as it tried to move, but it was held tightly by the Six-Winged Firebird and couldn't move at all.

"Let's go down together!" Xia Huo laughed loudly.

As her words fell, the Flame-Refining Array in the air rotated rapidly, emitting an extremely dazzling light.

The air vibrated violently, and a terrifying pillar of fire filled with destructive energy fell straight down from the fire array, as magnificent and terrifying as a volcanic eruption.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang smiled.
