Chapter 355: Sudden Frost
On the field, Qiao Sang and Wu Chang exchanged a glance; neither spoke.
She felt Wu Chang was a little different now — after going through that incident, the whole person seemed to have matured a lot.
Sure enough, for a person to mature quickly always comes with a price… Just as Qiao Sang was reflecting inwardly, the whistle signaling the start of the match sounded.
Green and gray star arrays lit up at the same time.
……
At the same time, at the rift of the secret realm in Hongrao Town.
A man in a brown jacket put a cigarette in his mouth and said: "Danger index 7%. Based on the situation these past few days, it's within controllable range. I think we can pull out."
"Did you forget the contents of the file?" A woman with long red curls beside him said coolly: "The child who witnessed the secret realm rift appear said he saw a Silver Armor Simu."
The man fell silent. A Silver Armor Simu — a Steel-type and Flying-type dual-attribute Emperor-class beast. If this thing really came out of the secret realm rift, the entire Hongrao Town would be done for.
"Didn't they say that child didn't recognize that beast?" the man said, glancing as he spoke at a large red butterfly-type beast beside him.
The man looked toward the woman in front of him.
"Just look at this move Heal Light of Bingluqi Ya — if it had been one-shot KO'd, forget the rest, fighting for ages only to see it take this little damage, you'd be furious enough to die of anger."
The Vision Bird had no choice but to fly up high to dodge.
At the whistle, Lubao wrapped her whole body in water flow and charged at the Vision Bird to launch an attack.
"Bang!
!"
"The Desert Tail Fox's defense really is too high. I thought we could at least get a few good rounds in."
This time, it showed an extremely serious expression and opened its mouth.
"Lu?"
The man took a drag of his cigarette and continued: "I remember the file said it was based on the child's description and picture comparison. What if it's wrong?"
Huicheng Beast-Taming High School.
Lubao leaped backward and vanished from the crowd's sight.
"How could anyone see clearly? It just flew off in an instant."
It wasn't that miraculous — every single Air Blade attack landed right around where Lubao was hiding.
"Holy crap! Why did it suddenly start snowing?!"
"I just scanned it — it's a Snowfur Elder, an Advanced beast."
"Seems, looks like, appears, indeed, it's Praying for Rain…"
One second, two seconds…
"Sigh, even though I'm rooting for Qiao Sang, why do I have this feeling of 'just as expected'…"
On the field.
"Holy crap, you see! Ice-type skills counter Flying-type beasts, yet the first move was still Water-type — so that was the intention!"
"Use Air Blade on the ground!" Qiao Sang immediately figured out a counter.
A wave of icy breath rapidly spread out, sweeping across the entire upper area of the field like a storm.
Seeing that one of the Air Blades was about to hit her, Lubao quickly leapt out from that drop of water.
Lubao slightly raised her head, circulated the energy within her body, opened her mouth — just as she was about to cast Praying for Rain, she suddenly felt a chill in her mouth.
"Actually Qiao Sang's tempo was fine — she had the Desert Tail Fox attack right away, but the opponent was just too overpowered."
"Lu…"
The water jet's height and duration were limited. After chasing the Vision Bird in two circles in the air, Lubao fell back to the ground and dispersed the water flow.
Lubao curiously raised her head, opened her mouth, and took another bite of snow.
The time to cast Praying for Rain was there… Xi Zhen's eyes lit up as he gave the command: "Praying for Rain."
The woman rolled her eyes at him: "Silver Armor Simu — say a beast that looks like it and let's hear it."
Over a dozen staff members fiddled with various instruments in silence, their actions making clear that whatever the two chatted about, they were just background props.
Lubao raised her head again.
The audience was still buzzing with discussion.
"Wait…"
"Lu."
The next second, the tip of its butt ignited with fire and it nudged the cigarette dangling from its own beast tamer's mouth.
The woman shrugged: "But according to procedure and the data given by the information analysis group, this secret realm's abnormal alert can be lifted. Even if people still need to stay, it doesn't require our entire team to stay here."
The Vision Bird's eyesight was famously excellent, but she hadn't known that while executing Brave Bird Assault, it could still notice which drop of water Lubao had jumped into.
Not bad, the Gravel Scatter training wasn't for nothing! Speaking of which, that Vision Bird's eyesight is really something… Wu Chang thought to himself.
"What the heck? How could it possibly snow in this weather?!"
Because the audience had been quiet enough during that chain of battles just now, quite a few people heard Wu Chang's words.
Lubao blankly raised her head.
"For real? Isn't Praying for Rain a low-tier skill?"
"That snow is probably its doing."
"Isn't it only November?!"
"Me too…"
"Qu!"
When the dust settled, what everyone saw was the Desert Tail Fox collapsed on the ground and Bingluqi Ya with a look of high spirits.
Hearing her beast tamer's words, the Vision Bird dove downward, aimed at Lubao's position, suddenly accelerated, and then a cyan light enveloped its entire body.
Logically speaking, the number of air blades wasn't that few, and the probability of precisely hitting the spot where Little Liuqing had retreated into that drop of water was less than 10%.
"Although Ice Luqiya is a water-type pet beast, its speed is a notch slower than the Desert Tail Fox."
Under the tremendous impact, dust swirled up.
In an instant, a buzz of discussion rose.
At times like that, instruments that specifically detect energy fluctuations become crucial.
The audience seats erupted in discussion.
"Holy Water Middle School, Wu Chang wins!"
"You noticed it, right? Ice Luqiya always uses a water-type skill first, getting a little water on the ground, so it can hide its movements at any time."
"Quiet, quiet! Just look up at Qiyu and you'll know."
The Perception Bird flapped its wings hard, head pointing down, and rapidly ascended into the lower sky.
The next second, it saw snowflakes filling the sky.
The Perception Bird's attack hit nothing.
"Actually, even if Qiao Sang loses, it's fine. This is the last match of the group stage. Look at my points — I've already secured advancement."
Some people sensed the air tremble slightly at that moment.
It's impossible to keep staring up at the secret realm rift the whole time, and some pet beasts that can turn invisible or hide their movements would be invisible to the naked eye even if they came out.
"Did you all see clearly what that pet beast just was?"
Hearing this, the Perception Bird flew up to midair, gave a powerful flap of its wings, and over a dozen blades formed from air shot rapidly toward a concentrated spot on the ground.
Little Liuqing and the Perception Bird stood on opposite sides of the field, each watching the other intently.
Frost descended suddenly.
"Jump." Xi Zhen said calmly.
Because Little Liuqing's reaction speed was truly too fast, it could weave through the unusually dense air blades, placing itself in a dangerous position every time.
……
It subconsciously licked with its tongue the thing that had fallen into its mouth.
Just then, a staff member watching the detection instrument suddenly said: "The data changed. A wild pet beast just came out. Judging by the fluctuation, it's a high-level pet beast."
"That's quite the detail."
Little Liuqing, water currents condensed all over its body, broke through the dust in the blink of an eye and ruthlessly slammed into the Desert Tail Fox's head.
"Freezing Wind."
In just three seconds, the battle was over. This completely unexpected ending left the audience's minds far from calm.
【Xiaoxiang app, search "Spring Gift" — new users get 500 book coins, old users get 200 book coins】 Qiyu?!
"How can those be the same! Healing Light is Ice Luqiya's inherited skill! Qiyu has to be self-taught!"
Feeling the cool aura within its body, Little Liuqing's train of thought, which it had been stuck on all night, suddenly flowed smoothly…
On the field, the second match had already ended.
One must realize that every drop of water is incredibly small, and Little Liuqing would also move at the first opportunity.
"I've never actually seen a pet beast use those weather-type skills before. I didn't expect the Snow Feather Elder to have already left, yet the snow is still falling." "Brave Bird Fierce Strike!" Qiao Sang seized the moment and gave the command.
"Look, look quickly! There's a pet beast over there!" The person who said this pointed at the sky, face full of excitement.
"What's there to doubt? Ice Luqiya already knows Healing Light, so knowing Qiyu too is nothing strange."
"I didn't hear wrong, did I? Xi Zhen just said Qiyu?"
The pet beast immediately turned around and adjusted its position.
Before the air blade attack had even finished, with Wu Chang's command, Little Liuqing opened its mouth, and a massive amount of cold air madly spread toward the direction of the Perception Bird in midair.
Unless it was certain where it had jumped to, how could it launch such a precise attack?
