Chapter 1371

"Xun xun?"

High in the air, Xiao Xunbao was stunned for a moment looking at the Blade-Scale Dragon looking around, thinking to itself, what is this guy looking at?

But it soon realized this was an opportunity and immediately hid its form.

This Blade-Scale Dragon guy, could it be that it can't see where the Ghost Ring Monarch is... Xia Huo keenly sensed something, her eyelids jumping, and she said: "Domain."

Hearing the opponent's command, Qiao Sang immediately had a guess.

If she wasn't mistaken, what the Blade-Scale Dragon was about to use should be Malice Domain.

Unlike other high-end domain-type skills, Malice Domain's power isn't very strong among domain-type skills; it's only classified as high-tier. This skill unfolds a domain full of negative emotions within a certain range, which can affect the will of creatures within the domain, causing negative emotions to arise in their hearts.

Additionally, it allows the pet beast using the skill to sense the position of opponents within the domain.

Other than that, it has no other effects.

Is it trying to use Malice Domain to sense the position of Xiao Xunbao's real body... Qiao Sang frowned and pondered.

She remembered that what Malice Domain can sense isn't life forms, but energy bodies. Whether it's a substitute or a Dark Demon Shadow, they all count as energy bodies.

It seems the Blade-Scale Dragon's Malice Domain proficiency is already high enough to sense the amount of energy in energy bodies, thereby judging which one is the real body...

"Blade-Scale."

Just as she was thinking, the Blade-Scale Dragon let out a cry and lifted its left leg.

But before it could stomp down, its leg suddenly felt as if it were controlled by something, falling backward uncontrollably.

"Xun xun~"

Xiao Xunbao didn't know when it had appeared on the ground, its claws touching the ground, connecting to the Blade-Scale Dragon's shadow.

The Blade-Scale Dragon looked down, but it couldn't see anything. Its tail went taut, stabbing into the ground to avoid its body falling completely.

At the same time, a black halo spread outward from its tail, like a tide spreading in all directions, and everywhere it passed was stained black.

But in just an instant, the field returned to its original color.

In an instant, the terrain map of the entire field appeared in the Blade-Scale Dragon's mind like a three-dimensional image. It clearly sensed a lump of rich purple energy on the ground not far ahead.

Found you... The Blade-Scale Dragon looked down again.

This time, it still couldn't see anything.

"Xun xun~"

Black light flickered on Xiao Xunbao's body.

The next second, a giant Ghost Ring Monarch with a body size of about sixty meters, with a black energy ball with a diameter of about ten meters condensed on its claw, descended from the sky, slamming fiercely toward the Blade-Scale Dragon.

The Blade-Scale Dragon maintained its original posture, swinging its head downward with force.

The sharp blade on its head flickered with cold light, instantly attacking the direction of the giant Ghost Ring Monarch above.

"The Blade-Scale Dragon has thrown its companion item at the Dark Demon Shadow!" Aurora announced loudly in the commentary booth.

The sharp blade on the Blade-Scale Dragon's head isn't just for show; it's its companion item, which it has had since birth. It can be used for melee or ranged attacks. Using the sharp blade on its head is an attack method the Blade-Scale Dragon loves to use... Qiao Sang looked at the scene on the field, the relevant information appearing in her mind. She thought to herself that Xiao Xunbao had finally encountered an opponent who also had a companion item.

The sharp blade, gleaming with cold light, split the giant Ghost Ring Monarch, easily dividing it in two.

With a loud "bang," the giant Ghost Ring Monarch dissipated and disappeared.

The sharp blade drew a precise arc in the air and returned to the Blade-Scale Dragon's head.

But the moment the sharp blade made contact with its head, its appearance changed, transforming into a golden ring.

"Patta~"

The ring fell to the ground.

The Blade-Scale Dragon followed the sound, saw the ring rolling to the side, and then realized something. It touched its head with its claw, but the claw touched nothing.

"!!!"

"BLADE-SCALE!!!"

Realizing its sharp blade was gone, the Blade-Scale Dragon let out a roar.

At the same time, Xiao Xunbao connected its left claw to the Blade-Scale Dragon's shadow and held the sharp blade in its right claw. Remembering the scene where Big Brother Like Ya Bao destroyed an opponent's item last time, it mimicked its actions, putting the sharp blade to its mouth and biting hard.

The sharp blade remained intact.

"Xun xun..."

Xiao Xunbao put the sharp blade down somewhat awkwardly, acting as if nothing had happened.

"The Blade-Scale Dragon's sharp blade has been swapped for the Ghost Ring Monarch's ring!" Nephthys's eyes lit up in the commentary booth, her tone quite excited. "Its sharp blade is in the Ghost Ring Monarch's hands!"

"It's the psychic-type Trick!" Aurora said. "The Ghost Ring Monarch used Trick to swap its companion item with the Blade-Scale Dragon's!"

"Yin Zhong."

"Yin Zhong."

Yin Yin Zhongsi looked at the scene on the field and let out two cries, indicating that the Ghost Ring Monarch wanted to bite open the Blade-Scale Dragon's companion item, but its teeth didn't seem very good, and it didn't bite it open.

In the stands, cheers erupted, and many people and pet beasts showed expressions of surprise.

Sometimes, after seeing too many collisions between skills, these unexpected moves are more eye-catching.

It actually knows Trick... Xia Huo's heart sank.

Regarding Qiao Sang, she considered herself to have studied her a lot, but she had never heard that the Ghost Ring Monarch knew Trick.

To deal with the Ghost Ring Monarch, the Blade-Scale Dragon's companion item is extremely important. The Ghost Ring Monarch is good at using Shadow Penetration to divert attacks, but for attacks with companion items, even if they are diverted, they can be instantly controlled and won't hit the pet beast possessing the companion item. This is one of the reasons she sent the Blade-Scale Dragon to compete.

The companion item must be taken back... Xia Huo sensed that the Blade-Scale Dragon's emotions were a bit off and said:

"Calm down!"

"Blade-Scale!"

Her own Beast Tamer's voice reached its ears, and the Blade-Scale Dragon took a deep breath, calming down significantly. It let out a loud cry, and the tail it had stabbed into the ground suddenly erupted with silver-white energy.

Large cracks quickly appeared on the ground, and then the solid ground burst open, with countless gravel and dust exploding upward.

Xiao Xunbao flew away from the ground at high speed, lifting its left claw, and the shadow connected to the Blade-Scale Dragon instantly transformed from two-dimensional to three-dimensional.

"Blade-Scale!"

The Blade-Scale Dragon took the opportunity to stand firm, opened its mouth, and a silver-white beam of light shot out toward Xiao Xunbao's direction.

Xiao Xunbao didn't move. Just as the attack was about to hit it, a giant abyss black hole suddenly appeared in front of it.

The silver-white beam of light disappeared into it.

At the same time, an abyss black hole also appeared about three meters above the Blade-Scale Dragon.

"Bang!"

The silver-white beam of light shot out from it, hitting the Blade-Scale Dragon heavily.

Qiao Sang clearly saw that before the silver-white beam hit the Blade-Scale Dragon, a flash of black light had flickered on its body.

Revenge: using this move before taking damage can return the damage of the last move received to the opponent with great force... It's the same move as Xiao Xunbao's...

Although Xiao Xunbao hadn't used this move much in battle, Qiao Sang recognized it at a glance.

The Blade-Scale Dragon, as an Emperor-level dragon-type pet beast, has higher defense than ordinary Emperor-level pet beasts. According to the data, it also possesses some defensive traits. It can withstand damage that Xiao Xunbao definitely couldn't. The opponent didn't even cry out after suffering the Dragon Breath attack, and it didn't dodge when Xiao Xunbao wasn't controlling its shadow, clearly having planned to use Revenge to withstand the attack...

Xiao Xunbao can divert skills through Shadow Penetration. Is Xia Huo preparing to have the Blade-Scale Dragon use Revenge to withstand attacks every time, and then take the opportunity to counterattack?

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang couldn't help but smile, but she quickly restrained her expression to avoid being noticed by the opponent.

Speaking of which, Xiao Xunbao has a move it has never used on the battlefield before...

"Xun xun..."

On the field, Xiao Xunbao held the black shadow with one claw and the sharp blade with the other, looking at the incomparably tall Blade-Scale Dragon in the distance, which hadn't even swayed under the powerful attack. Its expression became somewhat displeased.

Why does the opponent look so tall and strong? Even though they are the same level, why is its own body size so small...

In a place no one could see, a bit of black energy drifted into Xiao Xunbao's body, causing dissatisfaction and malice toward the things in front of it to suddenly rise within it.

"Xun xun!"

Xiao Xunbao became increasingly displeased, picked up the sharp blade, and bit it hard again.

The sharp blade remained motionless.

Qiao Sang keenly sensed that Xiao Xunbao was a bit off and said: "Release."

This meant putting the sharp blade into the ring. The Blade-Scale Dragon's sharp blade had been tempered a hundred times, and ordinary attack skills couldn't damage it at all. Whether held in the hand or thrown outside the field, the Blade-Scale Dragon could recall the sharp blade by sensing its companion item.

Xiao Xunbao could keep holding it, but it wasn't very convenient for using skills. If the Blade-Scale Dragon's sense of the sharp blade was strong enough, the sharp blade could cause damage to Xiao Xunbao at a critical moment. And even if Malice Domain disappeared, the opponent could still sense Xiao Xunbao's position through the sharp blade.

The safest way was to put the sharp blade into the ring.

As Xiao Xunbao's companion item, the ring's storage function could naturally be used on the field.

Of course, she wasn't telling Xiao Xunbao to put it away now; she just wanted it to find an opportunity. As long as Xiao Xunbao was calm enough, it would naturally know what to do.

However, Xiao Xunbao didn't follow the command immediately as it usually did, but bit the sharp blade hard again.

It's being affected by Malice Domain... Seeing this, Qiao Sang immediately understood what was going on.

As thoughts flickered, the Blade-Scale Dragon's claw lifted, instantly turning into a black blade, and slashed toward the black shadow.

Xiao Xunbao's attention was mostly on the sharp blade at this moment.

Without powerful energy control, the black shadow was like fragile cloth, being split in two.

Xia Huo's eyes lit up, and she said:

"Attack!"

At the same time, Qiao Sang shouted: "Live stream!"

These two words rang in Xiao Xunbao's mind like a thunderclap. The negative emotions seemed to vanish suddenly. Xiao Xunbao was startled, straightened its posture, and quickly disappeared from where it was.

It was at this moment that a thick silver-white beam of light passed through its original position.

"The Ghost Ring Monarch seems to have shaken off the malicious energy," Nephthys said in the commentary booth.

The scene of Xiao Xunbao continuously biting the sharp blade without attacking earlier had made everyone see that it was a bit off.

"Exactly," Aurora said. "I don't know what significance the words 'live stream' spoken by contestant Qiao Sang have for the Ghost Ring Monarch."

Nephthys thought for a moment and said: "I heard that the Ghost Ring Monarch also live streams in its spare time. Maybe the job of live streaming has a special significance for it."

"Yin Zhong."

Yin Yin Zhongsi let out an emotional cry, indicating that the Ghost Ring Monarch's flashy skills were indeed very suitable for live streaming.

During the conversation, an identical Ghost Ring Monarch appeared high in the air on the field.

In the Blade-Scale Dragon's mind, it clearly saw two purple energy bodies, one rich and one thin.

It aimed precisely at Xiao Xunbao's real body and roared:

"Blade-Scale!"

Instantly, the sharp blade held in Xiao Xunbao's claw seemed to be summoned, vibrating violently, trying to break free from its restraint.

Xiao Xunbao remembered its Beast Tamer's command and loosened its claw.

The sharp blade flew toward the Blade-Scale Dragon's direction at an astonishing speed.

The Blade-Scale Dragon showed a surprised expression.

Just as the sharp blade was about to plug back into its head, both Xunbaos in the high air disappeared simultaneously.

Xia Huo sensed something and shouted: "Slash!"

The Blade-Scale Dragon lifted its claw, preparing to catch the flying sharp blade to execute the move its Beast Tamer had mentioned. However, at this moment, a golden ring appeared out of thin air in front of it, and the sharp blade flew into it and disappeared.

"Xun xun~" Xiao Xunbao appeared beside the ring, pulled its claw under its eyelid toward the Blade-Scale Dragon, and made a face.

The Blade-Scale Dragon couldn't see Xiao Xunbao's provocation; it only knew that a purple energy body holding a ring had collected the sharp blade.

At this moment, its own Beast Tamer's voice reached its ears: "Sweep!"

"Blade-Scale!"

The Blade-Scale Dragon roared, without the slightest hesitation, channeling energy, and beams of black light instantly shot out from its body in all directions without any pattern.

The speed of the black beams was so fast that they pierced through the entire field in the blink of an eye.

"Bang bang bang!" The entire space vibrated violently, and beams of black light hit the invisible barrier, splashing thick black light.

This is the protection mechanism of the battle field, to avoid harm to the audience in the stands.

End Scattering, an evil-type super-tier skill, can erupt the evil-type energy within the body, forming a destructive beam storm. Any hit is a destructive injury. If the pet beast using this skill is in a negative emotional state, the greater the evil intent, the stronger the power... Qiao Sang didn't issue a command.

Because Xiao Xunbao had already launched a counterattack at this time.

On the field, two identical Ghost Ring Monarchs were constantly teleporting and changing positions amidst the beams of black light.

At the same time, abyss black holes appeared in the air.

An abyss black hole also appeared above the Blade-Scale Dragon's head.

"Bang!" A loud noise.

Xiao Xunbao's substitute couldn't dodge in time and disappeared.

"Xun xun!"

Xiao Xunbao was quickly dodging while using Shadow Penetration.

Beams of black light continuously shot into the black hole.

Black light flickered on the Blade-Scale Dragon.

The Blade-Scale Dragon possesses multiple scales, as well as the three major defensive traits of Reverse Scale Armor and Obsession. Even the damage of super-tier skills can be mostly blocked. Even if the Ghost Ring Monarch uses Shadow Penetration to divert attacks, as long as the Blade-Scale Dragon uses Revenge to withstand the move, and then uses Malice Explosion to double the damage it received and counterattack the Ghost Ring Monarch, it can solve the Ghost Ring Monarch! Xia Huo's heartbeat accelerated, and she couldn't hide her excitement.

In this match, she must eliminate the Ghost Ring Monarch!

Just as Xia Huo was excited in her heart, Qiao Sang said:

"Wonderful."
