Chapter 977

The cold air on Lubao's body spread.

The Sweet Poison King maintained the posture of holding its hand in its mouth, and in an instant, it turned back into an ice sculpture.

Inside the ice shell, the green light in its eyes flickered.

The frozen purple flower secreted a large amount of white powder from within.

Immediately after, the powder exploded.

With a loud "Bang!", all the ice shells that had frozen the purple flower shattered.

For a time, large chunks of broken ice splashed in all directions.

A commotion erupted in the audience.

"The Sweet Poison King's purple flower broke through the freezing of the Ice Heaven Domain!" Tian Yiwan exclaimed.

Some contestants in the contestant area had their eyes light up.

Since the Ice Emperor Ram demonstrated the Ice Heaven Domain, this was the first time a frozen pet beast had broken through the freezing effect on its own, and even if it was only the companion item that was broken, this gave them some hope that Super-tier skills weren't completely impossible to crack.

"The ice layer that froze the purple flower had originally been corroded by the poison and had become much thinner." Tang Xueran analyzed: "The Sweet Poison King is now in an Overgrow state, and the enhancement of the Grass-type skill power made the Magic Powder's power become even more powerful, successfully breaking through the freezing in one go. It seems that the Ice Emperor Ram only refroze the Sweet Poison King just now, rather than strengthening the freezing effect of the entire domain."

As the two were explaining, the giant purple flower suddenly rotated at high speed, and the petals scattered.

The petals scattered on the ground, shimmering with green light.

Then, purple flowers evolved from the petals and grew wildly upward.

Each one quickly grew to a height of over ten meters.

Purple Flower, the Sweet Poison King's companion item, can control its size according to the Sweet Poison King's will, and when the proficiency reaches a certain level, it can also split and grow multiple purple flowers. Each purple flower contains deadly poison and can also be used to cast Magic Powder... The opponent either wants to directly flow out a large amount of venom or cast large-scale Magic Powder to dissolve or blow up the surrounding ice... Qiao Sang looked at the scene in front of her, her expression calm.

Under Teacher Teacher Mi Jiala's guidance and her own further exploration, Lubao's means of using the Ice Heaven Domain are no longer what they used to be.

No matter whether the opponent wants to use venom or Magic Powder, she can directly defeat it before that.

After all, just eleven normal-sized giant ice cones directly smashed the Sweet Poison King into triggering the Overgrow ability, which is enough to show that its own defensive power is not strong.

"Maximum." Qiao Sang said.

The blue light of the gem on Lubao's forehead flickered.

Almost the second after the gem flickered, a giant ice cone that covered the entire field, like a real ice mountain, suddenly appeared in mid-air.

Instantly, the entire field was plunged into a shadow.

This, this big... Shock, confusion, and disbelief were frozen on everyone's faces.

Tian Yiwan was dumbfounded, then stood up from his chair abruptly, excited:

"Ice Mountain Descent?!"

After saying this, he realized he should be wrong.

Ice Mountain Descent, an Ice-type Super-tier skill, can condense a real ice mountain into the world, whether it's to change the terrain and landscape or to use it for attacks.

If it really were Ice Mountain Descent, this ice mountain also felt a bit too small.

But he immediately thought that the Ice Emperor Ram's Beast Tamer was Qiao Sang, and couldn't help but start to waver again.

Actually, as long as the proficiency of Ice Mountain Descent is high enough, you can change the size at will.

Ice Mountain Descent belongs to the top-tier and difficult-to-learn category among Super-tier skills because the ice mountain can exist in reality and won't disappear because the pet beast that used this skill leaves, but will remain like a real ice mountain unless the pet beast that used the skill dispels it or it gradually disappears due to weather and terrain influences.

If it were another Beast Tamer's pet beast, he wouldn't consider that a King-tier pet beast would have high-proficiency Ice Mountain Descent.

But Qiao Sang is different; everything about her cannot be understood with ordinary thinking.

You have to know that her Steel Sword Falcon could use the Super-tier skill Holy Sword when it was a General-tier pet beast, so it seems it's not impossible for the Ice Emperor Ram to have high-proficiency Ice Mountain Descent...

As thoughts flashed, Tang Xueran beside him said:

"It's a Giant Ice Cone."

Giant Ice Cone? Such a big Giant Ice Cone?!

Everyone looked at the "ice mountain" in the high sky, their brains a bit confused for a while.

In their impression, even a Giant Ice Cone with Ultimate peak proficiency shouldn't be this big.

Chen Tianqin felt the shadow in the sky, raised his head, and when he saw that huge ice mountain in mid-air, his pupils shrank, and only two words flashed in his mind: Holy crap!

After being stunned for 0.01 seconds, he reacted and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Explode! Make them all explode!"

Purple flowers over ten meters tall scattered a large amount of white Magic Powder, which soon permeated and scattered to every corner of the field.

"Bang bang bang!!!"

On the field, explosions occurred one after another, and the impact was like a sea tide.

Cracks appeared in the ice shell on the ground and on the Sweet Poison King's body.

Lubao had already condensed a thick ice armor on its body when the purple flowers split and grew.

Magic Powder also exploded continuously around it.

The ice armor around Lubao cracked, but it recovered as before the next second after the crack appeared.

Repeatedly like this.

Before the ice shell on the Sweet Poison King could completely shatter and more powder could explode, like an ice mountain descending from the sky, like an ice mountain penetrating and striking from another world, it fell vertically!

With the continuous explosions of Magic Powder, large chunks of broken ice fell from the bottom of the "ice mountain," but it didn't have a real impact on the "ice mountain."

"Bang!!!"

The "ice mountain" fell completely onto the field, the entire ground was shattered into powder, and it actually sank downward by a few points.

When they saw the Sweet Poison King pressed under the "ice mountain," looking as if it didn't even let out a scream, everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

It wouldn't be pressed flat, right...

"The super-magnified version of the Giant Ice Cone successfully smashed onto the Sweet Poison King! The large-scale Magic Powder didn't block the Ice Emperor Ram's attack at all!" Tian Yiwan said: "Did the Sweet Poison King lose its combat ability? Is the match about to end?"

The Mechanical-type pet beast appeared beside the "ice mountain," showing a troubled look.

It couldn't see the figure of the fallen pet beast.

At this time, Qiao Sang said:

"Lubao."

"Ice Emperor."

Lubao called out, and then the "ice mountain" covering the entire field turned into ice crystals and disappeared.

Looking at the Sweet Poison King again, it closed its eyes, looking as if it had fainted and was buried deep underground.

The Mechanical-type pet beast observed for a while, picked up the green flag, and waved it toward the direction of Lubao and Qiao Sang.

"Ice Emperor..."

The ice armor on Lubao's body dissipated.

The audience was silent for two seconds, and then a commotion that soared into the clouds erupted:

"Ahhh! Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

"Ice Emperor Ram! Ice Emperor Ram!"

"No, was that move just now really a Giant Ice Cone? How could there be such a big Giant Ice Cone! Could the commentator have made a mistake?"

"How could the commentator make a mistake? That person is a professional."

"It must be the support of the Ice Heaven Domain. I heard that using Ice-type skills within the Ice Heaven Domain can achieve instant condensation and casting, and the size can be changed with the support of Ice-type energy. Did you see how the ice armor was repaired in seconds under the explosion of Magic Powder? If this wasn't under the Ice Heaven Domain, it would definitely be impossible."

"Why didn't Qiao Sang use such a Giant Ice Cone when she fought Zeng Feitian before, in the match where she used the Ice Emperor Ram to fight the Steel Battle Dragon?"

"She must have hidden her means, right? Don't professional Beast Tamers all like to hide their trump cards or something?"

"But it felt like the Ice Emperor Ram really tried its best in that match."

"That's why you can't be a professional Beast Tamer. Tell me, if she hadn't hidden such means, how could she have used such a Giant Ice Cone in today's match?"

The person beside added:

"There's also a possibility that her Ice Emperor Ram broke through the proficiency of the Ice Heaven Domain in these few days."

"Is the Ice Heaven Domain actually this awesome..."

"What else did you think? This is a Super-tier skill."

"Speaking of which, has Chen Tianqin lost three matches in a row?"

"I thought Chen Tianqin would lose, but I never thought he would lose this miserably..."

"In the first match, I still felt his tactics were quite powerful, knowing how to use the small to defeat the big, but I didn't expect three losses in three games."

"You can't say he's not powerful, it's just that it feels like the battle rhythm was with Qiao Sang, and he lost without really showing much."

"Qiao Sang's main point is that you can't use the strength of the previous round as a reference for every round. Also, the Ice Heaven Domain is truly unsolvable. It feels like unless it's that kind of pet beast whose energy is much higher than the Ice Emperor Ram's, even if it managed to break through with great difficulty like the Poison Sweet King, it would still be instantly frozen. After all, under the Ice Heaven Domain, it's just a matter of a thought."

"Why didn't Qiao Sang let the Ice Emperor Ram freeze those purple flowers later?"

"... Maybe she wanted to gather the maximum energy to condense the largest Giant Ice Cone to end the battle directly. The command she gave at the end seemed to be 'Maximum'."

Family area.

"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang! Lubao! Lubao!" Ye Xiangting stood up excitedly, waving her cheering stick with excitement.

Then she thought of something, took out her phone, took a photo of the field, sent it to her Moments, and added a caption:

【Congratulations to my daughter! Entering the top 16!】

Meanwhile.

The official livestream channel.

The comments were completely crazy, with the screen filled with "Ahhh" and Ice Emperor Ram plus exclamation marks.

After scrolling for several seconds, other content finally appeared in the comments.

【God Qiao! I knew you could do it!】

【The Ice Emperor Ram is simply too perfect! Every battle can bring me surprises!】

【If you ask me, the Ice Emperor Ram hasn't even shown half of its strength; it didn't even use Healing Light!】

【Ahhh! Is the Water Luya Species Research and Protection Center really not planning to send a few Water Luyas to Qiao Sang for cultivation!】

【Some people defeated people from the National Beast Taming Bureau at 17, and some people are still worrying about their pet beast's food expenses at 37.】

【People from the National Beast Taming Bureau? Did the official side come out to admit it?】

【Even if you lost, I still support Chen Tianqin! Thank you for your hard work! You just met a freak! We'll see you in the next arena!】

The match venue.

A giant virtual screen appeared in the center of the field.

It displayed photos of Qiao Sang and Chen Tianqin and the pet beasts sent out in this round of the match.

Chen Tianqin's photo then disappeared, leaving only Qiao Sang's photo enlarged on the screen.

Light and shadow fireworks bloomed on a small scale on the photo.

"Let us congratulate contestant Qiao Sang on winning this match with a 3:0 record! Successfully advancing to the top 16!" Tian Yiwan shouted with an excited expression.

Compared to Chen Tianqin winning the match, Qiao Sang, who was only 17 years old and had contracted a Clear Hidden Fairy, was obviously more capable of igniting topics and pushing the match to a climax.

Chen Tianqin took a deep look at the slender figure in the distance, waved his hand, and recalled the Sweet Poison King to the Beast Taming Tome.

Backstage.

Qiao Sang held Like Ya Bao, who was drinking energy recovery liquid, and came to the place where she put her things, opened the cabinet door, and took out the backpack inside.

Lubao held the energy recovery liquid, jumped into the backpack, and then skillfully stretched out its claws to pull the zipper halfway up.

"Xunxun!"

"Xunxun!"

Little Treasure Hunter kept calling excitedly beside her, asking what the skill was that that guy used to force Big Brother Like Ya Bao into Blaze in the first match?

Like Ya Bao stopped drinking the energy recovery liquid and looked over as well.

"It's the Mutual Destruction ability." Qiao Sang explained: "This ability can make the target that attacks it suffer the same injury state as it does."

"Yaya..."

Like Ya Bao fell into deep thought, trying hard to digest and understand.

"Xunxun!"

Little Treasure Hunter had already understood, its eyes lit up, and it called out excitedly.

Then can it awaken this ability?

Qiao Sang looked at it and smiled: "This is an Evil-type ability; I'm afraid you can't."

"Xunxun..." Little Treasure Hunter showed a disappointed expression.

At this time, a voice sounded beside her:

"Why are you unwilling to join the National Beast Taming Battle Team for training?"

Qiao Sang looked toward the sound.

She found that Chen Tianqin had come to her side at some point.

So that's why he was hostile to me because of this... Qiao Sang instantly understood what was going on with the other party's previous hostility, and said:

"I'm still a student, and I still need to study."

Chen Tianqin was silent for a moment:

"Joining the National Beast Taming Battle Team early allows you to participate in large-scale international competitions early. With your strength and talent, you should be able to be selected for the main force very quickly."

Qiao Sang repeated: "I'm still a student, and I still need to study."

Chen Tianqin: "..."

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind:

That's right, although Qiao Sang is gifted, she is actually still a 17-year-old minor. Although children in this age group are rebellious, they are actually very obedient to their parents and teachers in major matters.

She was admitted to the Imperial Beast Taming Academy, so her elders must be reluctant to let her train so hard in the national team. It must be her parents' idea to enter the National Beast Taming Bureau but not participate in training competitions!

Thinking of this, the hostility remaining in Chen Tianqin's eyes disappeared completely.

He sighed, then raised a smile and said:

"You study hard, and I hope to see you at the National Beast Taming Bureau soon."

He knew the premise for Qiao Sang to return to the National Beast Taming Bureau to participate in competitions: either become an A-level Beast Tamer or wait until the twenty-year deadline.

Twenty years, too late.

By that time, he didn't even know if he would have been eliminated from the National Beast Taming Bureau.

After speaking, Chen Tianqin turned around and prepared to leave.

However, the moment his right foot stepped out, he thought of something else and said:

"Watch out for Yuan Tianlong."

Chen Tianqin stepped out with his other leg and prepared to leave again.

Yuan Tianlong? That god-tier rich man with a full Dragon-type lineup? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then thought of the hostility disappearing from the other party's eyes, and couldn't help but say:

"Can I ask you a question?"

"What?" Chen Tianqin stopped and turned his head.

Qiao Sang asked: "I've watched some of your previous matches, and I've also watched the Phantom-Hating Fox's matches. Why has it never shown the Mutual Destruction ability?"

Although the Phantom-Hating Fox hasn't lost in the matches that can still be found, the Mutual Destruction ability is painful for both the user and the opponent.

I remember the Phantom-Hating Fox was attacked in the match, but the opponent didn't show the same feeling of pain.

So you also have things you don't understand... Chen Tianqin felt a bit secretly pleased and answered with a smile:

"Ask your teacher."

After saying that, he turned around, waved his hand, and left gracefully.

Qiao Sang: "..."
